[PATCH v10 10/19] irqchip: gic: Group 0 workaround.

From: Daniel Thompson
Date: Tue Aug 19 2014 - 12:51:01 EST


An ARM system based on GICv1 that runs by default in secure mode and
uses both group 0 and group 1 interrupts (in order to exploit FIQ)
will suffer a problem where the IRQ handler occasionally spuriously
acknowledges a group 0 (FIQ) interrupt.

This can be prevented by ensuring the IRQ handler makes non-secure
memory access to the GIC registers but this is complex because
the non-secure bits cannot be apply to 4k pages (the bit is one level
up in the page table and applies to 1MB at a time).

This workaround uses an alternative approach that spots the spurious
acknowledgment and regenerates the FIQ. This keeps the workaround
exclusively within the GIC driver (although there is a runtime
perforamnce penalty resulting from this approach).
