Currently it is not possible to exploit FIQ for systems with a GIC, even if
the systems are otherwise capable of it. This patch makes it possible
for IPIs to be delivered using FIQ.

To do so it modifies the register state so that normal interrupts are
placed in group 1 and specific IPIs are placed into group 0. It also
configures the controller to raise group 0 interrupts using the FIQ
signal. It provides a means for architecture code to define which IPIs
shall use FIQ and to acknowledge any IPIs that are raised.

All GIC hardware except GICv1-without-TrustZone support provides a means
to group exceptions into group 0 and group 1 but the hardware
functionality is unavailable to the kernel when a secure monitor is
present because access to the grouping registers are prohibited outside
"secure world". However when grouping is not available (or in the case
of early GICv1 implementations is very hard to configure) the code to
change groups does not deploy and all IPIs will be raised via IRQ.

It has been tested and shown working on two systems capable of
supporting grouping (Freescale i.MX6 and STiH416). It has also been
tested for boot regressions on two systems that do not support grouping
(vexpress-a9 and Qualcomm Snapdragon 600).

This hunk is what irritates me. It creates a hard dependency between
core ARM code and the GIC, and I don't really see how this works with
multiplatform, where the interrupt controller is not necessarily a GIC.
In that case, you will die a horrible death.

I was just about to reassure you that there is no bug here... but then I read the code.

gic_handle_fiq_ipi() was *supposed* to do a check to make it safe to call when there is no gic meaning multi-platform support could be achieved by calling into multiple handlers.

It looks like I forgot to write the code that would make this possible. Maybe I was too disgusted with the approach to implement it correctly. Looking at this with fresher eyes (I've been having a bit of a break from FIQ recently) I can see how bad the current approach is.


Why can't we just call handle_arch_irq(), and let the normal handler do
its thing? You can have a "if (in_nmi())" in there, and call your FIQ
function. It would at least save us the above problem.

It should certainly work although it feels odd to reuse the IRQ handler for FIQ.

All other comments below are fine. I'll fix these.


Daniel.
