[PATCH v2 0/3] irqchip: vf610-mscm: add support for MSCM interrupt router

[Stefan Agner]

Splitted out version of the MSCM driver. My first driver based on the
routeable domain support and was part of the Vybrid Cortex-M4 support
patchset.

So far the MSCM interrupt router was initialized by the boot loader
and configured all interrupts for the Cortex-A5 CPU. There are two
use cases where a proper driver is necessary:
- To run Linux on the Cortex-M4. When the kernel is running on the
  non-preconfigured CPU, the interrupt router need to be configured
  properly.
- To support deeper sleep modes: LPSTOP clears the interrupt router
  configuration, hence a driver needs to restore the configuration
  on resume.
I created a seperate patchset for that driver which hopefully makes
it easier to get it into mergeable state.

The patchset is based on the master branch of Linus with the branch
irq-irqdomain-arm-for-linus from tip merged. I guess this will apply
flawless on 3.19-rc1 once it's out.

Changes since v1 (part of Vybrid Cortex-M4 support)
- Rewrite with irqdomain hierarchy
- Implemented as proper irqchip and move to driver/irqchip/
- Doesn't work on Cortex-M4 anymore (NVIC as parent is not yet
  implemented)

[PATCH v2 1/3] irqchip: vf610-mscm: add support for MSCM interrupt router

[Stefan Agner]

This adds support for Vybrid's interrupt router. On VF6xx models,
almost all peripherals can be accessed from either of the two
CPU's, from the Cortex-A5 or from the Cortex-M4. The interrupt
router routes the peripheral interrupts to the configured CPU.

The driver makes use of the irqdomain hierarchy support. The
parent is either the ARM GIC or the ARM NVIC interrupt controller
depending on which CPU the kernel is executed on. Currently only
ARM GIC is supported because the NVIC driver lacks hierarchical
irqdomain support as of now.

Currently, there is no resource control mechnism implemented to
avoid concurrent access of the same peripheral. The user needs
to make sure to use device trees which assign the peripherals
orthogonally. However, this driver warns the user in case the
interrupt is already configured for the other CPU. This provides
a poor man's resource controller.

Thanks for the feedback on the initial driver, I'm quite happy
with the outcome using the hierarchic irqdomain support.
The driver is tested on Vybrid running on the Cortex-A5 CPU.
However, to properly support Cortex-M4, some more work will be
needed. Beside the hierarchic irqdomain support for NVIC, the
different IRQ cell layout need to be solved: NVIC uses only
one cell, whereas GIC uses three. I see two possible solutions:
- Support two layouts in this driver. Maybe by using IS_ENABLED,
  since it is not possible to compile a kernel for the A5 and
  M4.
- Define a 3 cell layout as GIC uses it for the MSCM, and pass
  a syntetic one cell layout to the parent when calling
  irq_domain_alloc_irqs_parent. This driver would then still
  need to know what type of interrupt controller the parent is...

Ideas/advice welcome...

You shouldn't use the GIC format for the MSCM, as it doesn't mean
anything for it. Yes, I know that everybody did that, but that's just
wrong (MSCM itself shouldn't care about SPIs, except when it is actually
talking to a GIC). The only reason I didn't clean that up in my ongoing
series is to avoid having to rewrite all the DTs entirely.

My hunch is that you should have a MSCM-specific interrupt description
(I guess two cells should be enough, one for the interrupt number and
one for the trigger if necessary), and translate this to the format that
the backing interrupt controller is using (only the map function should
be affected).

That would also make your DT binding a lot less ambiguous.

Other than that, it looks pretty good to me. Just a few cosmetic remarks
below:

Please keep the argument to readw_relaxed on the same line as the
function call. Makes it easier to read.

Does this read have an influence on the interrupt routing?

That's a bit hard to read. Put it on the same line.

Otherwise, looks pretty good to me.

Ok, so foremost you suggest to use always the same interrupt
specification, no matter if I use the dt for the A5 or the M4. Hm, just
some weeks ago I extracted the interrupt properties of all peripherals
and made a base device tree without interrupt properties, just so that I
could create a device tree with the interrupt properties for NVIC and
one for GIC (see vf500.dtsi vs the preliminary vf610m4.dtsi from the
Cortex-M4 support patchset). Back then, I did not put much thought into
MSCM etc., and just adjusted the interrupt properties to the needs of
those two interrupt controllers. When having a common definition, I can
merge those interrupt nodes back into the common device tree, which is
much nicer anyway!

Regarding format, since I have to touch all the interrupt properties
anyway, it's not much hassle to use a new format in that process. So my
MSCM format would be, as you suggested, two cells with interrupt number
and the trigger specification (IRQ_TYPE... from
./include/dt-bindings/interrupt-controller/irq.h).

One open thing: How should I determine the backing interrupt controller?
Maybe by just reading the interrupt-cells property of the parent
interrupt controller, and depending on the cell count create that
format?

No it doesn't. The warn here implements the poor man's resource

The same line adjustment will break the 80 character border... But I
agree, it's ugly the way it is now. Will put them in the same line.

Indeed. The thing to realize is that from the point of view of the
device, the interrupt controller *is* MSCM. That is what the wire is
connected to. What the MSCM is connected to is its responsibility.

The way to handle this would be to look at the interrupt-parent (you get
a pointer to it anyway), and match the compatible string. You still need
to hardcode the knowledge of the format for GIC and NVIC though.

Never mind what checkpatch says. Readability trumps it anytime.

If you want to obey checkpatch then move that stuff into a seperate
inline function.
