Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Enable interrupts in arch_cpu_idle()
Date: Thu, 2 May 2013 16:33:52 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.02.1305021527010.3972@ionos> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAOiHx=mA-htk_2daeE9WpbEVV9YLvfLc1NYZZR=JeDdibchCnw@mail.gmail.com>
commit cdbedc61c8 (mips: Use generic idle loop) broke MIPS as I did
not realize that MIPS wants to invoke the wait instructions with
interrupts enabled. Don't ask why that works correctly; Ralf suggested
to get thoroughly drunk before even thinking about it. Looking sober
at commit c65a5480 ([MIPS] Fix potential latency problem due to
non-atomic cpu_wait) is not recommended.
Enable interrupts in arch_cpu_idle() on mips to repair the issue.
