From: Simon Guinot <sguinot@lacie.com>

This fixes a regression introduced by e59347a
"arm: orion: Use generic irq chip".

The same interrupt mask cache (stored within struct irq_chip_generic)
is shared between all the irq_chip_type instances. As each irq_chip_type
can use a distinct mask register, share a single mask cache is not
correct. This bug affects Orion SoCs, which have separate mask registers
for edge and level interrupts.

This patch move mask_cache from struct irq_chip_generic into struct
irq_chip_type. Note that the interrupt support for Samsung SoCs is also
slightly affected.

What do you think about this patch ?

Even if the issue is not critical, this should be fixed.

The patch looks to fix the issue with orion, but it seems that it
won't work for SoC with multiple irq_chip_type that use one mask
register.

Yes indeed, but does such SoCs exists ? I mean that the only supported
SoC using multiple irq_chip_type (for now) is Orion. What is the most
generic case for edge/level interrupts ? shared or separated mask
registers ?

If Orion is the specific case, maybe we could provide a dedicated
irq_mask() handler instead of using the generic one. It would be a
little sad.

Or we could find a way to make coexist this two mask cache policies
(even if I don't see how to do that cleanly) ?
Alternatively, we could allow to bypass this mask cache...

Regards,

Simon

thats right, but as you code is generic, we should find some way to
fix it or to prevent such devices to use this generic code.

orion gpios use separate mask.

I personally prefer this method, along with getting rid off the
multiple irq_chip_types, my main consideration in this case is
performance.
the irq_gc_mask_clr_bit/irq_gc_ack_set_bit/irq_gc_unmask_enable_reg
are critical since it get called for every (level) interrupt, and it
would be great if you optimize those functions,
I think you better do the following:
1. use pre-calculated offsets instead using  gc->reg_base + cur_regs(d)->ack.
2. put all hot variables (lock, mask/ack/eoi register offset) in the
same cache line if possible.

I ran into the same problem (currently running 3.0.40)... but it looks 
like this patch was never applied anywhere.
I also quickly scanned the log between now and then and could not find 
any reference to this problem. Was a fix ever committed or we still have 
this regression?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Gerlando,

AFAIK this issue is still here. I include the current Orion maintainers
in the Cc list.

Hi Thomas,

Do you agree with the original patch concept: moving mask_cache from
struct irq_chip_generic into struct irq_chip_type ?

This allows to handle the irq_chips which have separate mask registers
for the edge and level interrupts. At the time of this patch, this was
the only existing case.

Saeed objected that the patch was not correct because this was breaking
"hypothetic" devices with multiple irq_chip_type and a single mask
register.

The other option was to provide some dedicated irq_mask handlers for the
Orion irq chip.

As I was comfortable with none of this solutions, I kind of let it lie.

Let me know you advice.

Not really. See below.

Not so hypothetic. There _are_ irq controllers out there which use the
same mask register for both level and edge type irqs.

I'd rather refactor the core code so it uses a pointer to the
mask_cache. The default would be to let it point to gc->mask_cache and
optionally let it point to ct->mask_cache. We'd need to store the flag
in the gc struct so we can redirect the pointer to the ct->mask_cache
in irq_setup_alt_chip().

Sure, but if the same mask register is used, then a single irq_chip_type
should be able to handle both level and edge interrupts ? I mean, if one
needs to register different irq_chip_type for edge and level interrupts,
it is most likely because the registers are not the same...

No, it's because first of all the types have different flow handlers
and because they can have a different irq_chip due to different
callbacks while still having the necessarity to share a single
mask_cache.

Care to look at struct irq_chip_type as a whole and not just from the
POV of your particular chip incarnation?

Again. Here is the solution to the problem:

Stop arguing in circles and implement the 20 lines of patch already.
