As ACPI protocol descripted, if interrupts are level, a GSIV may
be shared by multiple subspaces, but each one must have unique
platform interrupt ack preserve and ack set masks. Therefore, need
set to shared interrupt for types that can distinguish interrupt
response channel if platform interrupt mode is level triggered.

The distinguishing point isn't definitely command complete register.
Because the two status values of command complete indicate that
there is no interrupt in a subspace('1' means subspace is free for
use, and '0' means platform is processing the command). On the whole,
the platform interrupt ack register is more suitable for this role.
As ACPI protocol said, If the subspace does support interrupts, and
these are level, this register must be supplied. And is used to clear
the interrupt by using a read, modify, write sequence. This register
is a 'WR' register, the bit corresponding to the subspace is '1' when
the command is completed, or is '0'.

Therefore, register shared interrupt for multiple subspaces if support
platform interrupt ack register and interrupts are level, and read the
ack register to ensure the idle or unfinished command channels to
quickly return IRQ_NONE.

I am not sure if the above is correct. The spec doesn't specify that the
set_mask can be used to detect if the interrupt belongs to this channel.
We need clarification to use those bits.
Yes, the spec only say that the interrupt ack register is used to clear the
interrupt by using a read, modify, write sequence. But the processing
of PCC driver is as follows:
Irq Ack Register = (Irq Ack Register & Preserve_mask) | Set_mask

The set_mask is using to clear the interrupt of this channel by using OR
operation. And it should be write '1' to the corresponding bit of the
channel
to clear interrupt. So I think it is ok to use set_mask to detect if the
interrupt belongs to this channel.
The problem is it can be write-only register and reads as always zero.
But it seems that it must be a read/write register according to the ACPI spec.
I know a platform with such a behaviour.
Can you tell me which platform?

This triggered be that I have a patch to address this. I will try to search
and share, but IIRC I had a flag set when the doorbell was rung to track
which channel or when to expect the irq. I will dig that up.
Looking forward to your patch.😁
Please find below. I am not convinced yet to have extra flag for checking if
the channel is in use. The other idea I had is to use the Generic Communications
Channel Shared Memory Region Status Field in particular Command Complete
field. I haven't tried it yet and hence the reason for not posting the patch.
Let me know if the idea looks sane, so that I can try something and share
I don't think it is feasible. From the spec, the Command Complete field in the Generic
Communications Channel Shared Memory Region Status Field for type1/2 is similar to
the Command Complete Check Register in Master Slave Communications Channel Shared
Memory Region for type3/4.
it. I may not have a setup handy to test and may need sometime to test though.

Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: PCC: Support shared level triggered interrupt for
multiple subspaces

If the platform acknowledge interrupt is level triggered, then it can
be shared by multiple subspaces provided each one has a unique platform
interrupt ack preserve and ack set masks.

If it can be shared, then we can request the irq with IRQF_SHARED and
IRQF_ONESHOT flags. The first one indicating it can be shared and the
latter one to keep the interrupt disabled after the hardirq handler
finished.
after --> until , right?

Further, since there is no way to detect if the interrupt is for a given
channel as the interrupt ack preserve and ack set masks are for clearing
the interrupt and not for reading the status, we need a way to identify
if the given channel is in use and expecting the interrupt.

Hi Sudeep,

ACPI spec requested that the Irq Ack Register is a read/write register. From this point,
only using this register supports for detecting if the interrupt is for a given channel
as my patch implemented. But If we need consider the platform whose Irq Ack Register is
write-only register, the chan_in_use flag in your patch looks good to me.

Regards,
Huisong
