Ignore value of interrupt distribution mode for common interrupts in
IDU since setting of affinity using value from Device Tree is deprecated
in ARC. Originally it is done in idu_irq_xlate() function and it is
semantically wrong and does not guaranty that an affinity value will be
set properly.

However it is necessary to set a default affinity value manually for all
common interrupts since initially all of them are disabled by IDU (a
CPU mask for common interrupts is set to 0 after CPU reset) and in
some cases the kernel cannot do it itself after initialization of
endpoint devices (e.g. when IRQ chip below of IDU does not support
setting of affinity and it cannot propagate an affinity value to IDU).

By default send all common interrupts to the first online CPU.
Usually it is a boot CPU. If the kernel is built without support
of SMP then idu_irq_set_affinity() must be called manually since
irq_set_affinity() does nothing in this case.

This comment only affects the behaviour of the driver, and not the
hardware. I'd rather see something along the lines of:

"The second cell is only a hint, and an operating system is free to
ignore it."

Ghhhaaaaahhhh. Please don't do that. You are now re-entering the IRQ
framework, and there is no guarantee that this is safe (what locks are
being held???). At that stage, you don't even know if the irq_desc
exists yet. And since you're not testing the return value, you can't
even know if that worked.

In general, you don't even need this, because the kernel will set the
affinity to the first CPU (see the setup_affinity call from __setup_irq).

This should be the only course of action.

However functions like irq_set_chip_and_handler() and irq_set_status_flags() which are used above set a lock on irq_desc and seems like this structure must exists on this stage. And irq_set_affinity() has the same behavior - it locks irq_desc and modifies it. I know that no one calls irq_set_affinity() in such situations (I mean in irq_map() function) but:

1. The default affinity on ARC is always 0xf. I don't know why... By the way that's why we always check an affinity value in idu_irq_set_affinity():

                if (!cpumask_and(&online, cpumask, cpu_online_mask)) return -EINVAL;

And by default affinity will never be set to just boot core. Moreover I am not sure that an affinity value in irq_desc will always match a real affinity of common interrupts. May be this is the root problem?

2. The kernel will not call idu_irq_set_affinity() for IDU interrupt controller in some cases. It happens when the top interrupt controller does not support setting of the affinity and does not even support propagating of it (e.g. a GPIO interrupt controller on top of IDU which funnels all interrupts in one line). However idu_irq_set_affinity() must be called to unmask common interrupts in IDU. And if I want to make an affinity in irq_desc to match a real affinity I must call irq_set_affinity() instead of just idu_irq_set_affinity() .

irq_set_chip_and_handler() and co are designed to be used when setting
up the interrupt. irq_set_affinity() is (at least conceptually) designed
to be called at runtime, once everything has been setup. This may be a
harmless violation at the moment, but not something we can guarantee to
be future proof.

I think we're mixing two different things here: what the kernel think of
the affinity, and what it is actually set to. Of course, things should
more or less match.

By default, Linux assumes that all interrupts are routed to CPU0. That's
the *boot* CPU, and not necessary what is the HW view of CPU0 (think of
kexec from a secondary CPU). What is expected is that you perform the
initial affinity configuration so that the interrupt is routed to this
boot CPU. After that, userspace is in charge.

My brain has just melted. Can you describe this a bit more, possibly
using some ASCII diagrams? I really don't understand what the affinity
settings have to do with unmasking the interrupt... It is that you mask
an interrupt by routing it to a dummy CPU?

Thanks,

The AXS SDP board has an "interesting" cascade of interrupt controllers.
Exact setup in arch/arc/boot/dts/{axc003_idu,axs10x_mb}.dtsi
