Subject: [PATCH v9 1/4] clocksource: mips-gic-timer: Enable counter when CPUs start
Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2025 13:32:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250129123250.711910-2-arikalo@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250129123250.711910-1-arikalo@gmail.com>
From: Paul Burton <paulburton@kernel.org>
In multi-cluster MIPS I6500 systems there is a GIC in each cluster,
each with its own counter. When a cluster powers up the counter will
be stopped, with the COUNTSTOP bit set in the GIC_CONFIG register.
In single cluster systems, it has been fine to clear COUNTSTOP once
in gic_clocksource_of_init() to start the counter. In multi-cluster
systems, this will only have started the counter in the boot cluster,
and any CPUs in other clusters will find their counter stopped which
will break the GIC clock_event_device.
Resolve this by having CPUs clear the COUNTSTOP bit when they come
online, using the existing gic_starting_cpu() CPU hotplug callback. This
will allow CPUs in secondary clusters to ensure that the cluster's GIC
counter is running as expected.
