[PATCH v3] irqchip: gic: Allow interrupt level to be set for PPIs.

[PATCH v3] irqchip: gic: Allow interrupt level to be set for PPIs.

[Liviu Dudau]

During a recent cleanup of the arm64 DTs it has become clear that
the handling of PPIs in xxxx_set_type() is incorrect. The ARM TRMs
for GICv2 and later allow for "implementation defined" support for
setting the edge or level type of the PPI interrupts and don't restrict
the activation level of the signal. Current ARM implementations
do restrict the PPI level type to IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW, but licensees
of the IP can decide to shoot themselves in the foot at any time.

Made a stupid mistake in v2 and got my bit test confused with logical test.

Gentle ping!

Any comments here? Russell, are you OK with this approach?

Best regards,

So if you change the configuration of an enabled interrupt and fail to
do so, you end-up with the interrupt disabled. This is a change in
behaviour, and is likely to introduce regressions.

I have exactly zero knowledge about the hip04 controller, and despite it
looking like a GIC, it is quite different from the real thing. I'd like
to see confirmation from the HiSilicon guys that this is the right thing
to do, and possibly this to be moved to a separate patch if that
requires extra changes.

Thanks,

Is it? Beforehand we were silently ignoring the fact that the new values haven't been
set, now we return an error. Should we continue to ignore the fact that there is now
a difference between what the kernel believes the setup is and what the hardware is
configured to do?

(Sorry for delay in responding, just returned from my extended holiday.)
