From: Sumit Garg <[email protected]> All current arm64 interrupt controllers have at least 8 IPIs. Currently we are only using 7 of them on arm64. Let's use the 8th one as a debug IPI. This uses the new "debug IPI" infrastructure which will try to allocate this IPI as an NMI/pseudo NMI if possible.
Signed-off-by: Sumit Garg <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Douglas Anderson <[email protected]> --- I could imagine that people object to using up the last free IPI on interrupt controllers with only 8 IPIs. However, it shouldn't be a big deal. If we later need an extra IPI, it shouldn't be too hard to combine some of the existing ones. Presumably we could just get rid of the "crash stop" IPI and have the normal "stop" IPI do the crash if "waiting_for_crash_ipi" is non-zero Changes in v9: - Add a warning if we don't have enough IPIs for the NMI IPI - Renamed "NMI IPI" to "debug IPI" since it might not be backed by NMI. - Update commit description Changes in v8: - debug_ipi_setup() and debug_ipi_teardown() no longer take cpu param arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c index edd63894d61e..db019b49d3bd 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c @@ -53,6 +53,8 @@ #include <trace/events/ipi.h> +#include "ipi_debug.h" + DEFINE_PER_CPU_READ_MOSTLY(int, cpu_number); EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(cpu_number); @@ -935,6 +937,8 @@ static void ipi_setup(int cpu) for (i = 0; i < nr_ipi; i++) enable_percpu_irq(ipi_irq_base + i, 0); + + debug_ipi_setup(); } #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU @@ -947,6 +951,8 @@ static void ipi_teardown(int cpu) for (i = 0; i < nr_ipi; i++) disable_percpu_irq(ipi_irq_base + i); + + debug_ipi_teardown(); } #endif @@ -968,6 +974,11 @@ void __init set_smp_ipi_range(int ipi_base, int n) irq_set_status_flags(ipi_base + i, IRQ_HIDDEN); } + if (n > nr_ipi) + set_smp_debug_ipi(ipi_base + nr_ipi); + else + WARN(1, "Not enough IPIs for NMI IPI\n"); + ipi_irq_base = ipi_base; /* Setup the boot CPU immediately */ -- 2.41.0.rc2.161.g9c6817b8e7-goog _______________________________________________ Kgdb-bugreport mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kgdb-bugreport
