SMP.
We used to route all PIC based interrupts to cpu 0, and used the per-CPU
interrupt mask to enable/disable interrupts. But the interrupt threads can
run on any cpu on SMP, and the interrupt thread will re-enable the interrupts
on the CPU it runs on when it is done, and not on cpu0 where the PIC will
still send interrupts to.
The fix is move the disable/enable for PIC based interrupts to PIC, we will
ack on PIC only when the interrupt thread is done, and we do not use the
per-CPU interrupt mask.
The changes also introduce a way for subsystems to add a function that
will be called to clear the interrupt on the subsystem. Currently This is
used by the PCI/PCIe for doing additional work during the interrupt
handling.
- style(9) fixes to mips/rmi platform files
- update pic.h to add pic_setup_intr() and use pic_setup_intr() for setting
up interrupts which are routed thru PIC.
- remove rmi_spin_mutex_safe and haslock, and make sure that the functions
are called only after mutexes are available.
am now able to run 32 cores ok.. but I still will hang
on buildworld with a NFS problem. I suspect I am missing
a patch for the netlogic rge driver.
JC check and see if I am missing anything except your
core-mask changes
Obtained from: JC
- remove unused and commented code (MIPS_BUS_SPACE_PCI, pic_usb_ack)
- use rmi_pci_bus_space for USB too (needs byteswap)
- uncomment xls_ehci.c in files.xlr
- changes to xls_ehci.c - updated with dev/usb/controller/ehci_*.c as
Obtained from: JC - c.jayachandran@gmail.com
- add bus_space_rmi_pci.c for PCI bus space
- files.xlr update for changes in files
- pcibus.c merged into xlr_pci.c (they were small files with inter-dependencies)
- xlr_pci.c - lot of changes here with few fixes, formatting cleanup
Obtained from: C. Jayachandran (JC) - c.jayachandran@gmail.com
compile and many of them may disappear. For example
the xlr_boot1_console.c is old code that is ifdef'd out.
I will clean these sorts of things up as I make progress
on the port. So far the only thing I have I think straightened
out is the bits around the interupt handling... and hey that
may be broke ;-)
