2023-04-08RISC-V: Allow marking IPIs as suitable for remote FENCEsAnup Patel
To do remote FENCEs (i.e. remote TLB flushes) using IPI calls on the RISC-V kernel, we need hardware mechanism to directly inject IPI from the supervisor mode (i.e. RISC-V kernel) instead of using SBI calls. The upcoming AIA IMSIC devices allow direct IPI injection from the supervisor mode (i.e. RISC-V kernel). To support this, we extend the riscv_ipi_set_virq_range() function so that IPI provider (i.e. irqchip drivers can mark IPIs as suitable for remote FENCEs.

2023-04-08RISC-V: Treat IPIs as normal Linux IRQsAnup Patel
Currently, the RISC-V kernel provides arch specific hooks (i.e. struct riscv_ipi_ops) to register IPI handling methods. The stats gathering of IPIs is also arch specific in the RISC-V kernel. Other architectures (such as ARM, ARM64, and MIPS) have moved away from custom arch specific IPI handling methods. Currently, these architectures have Linux irqchip drivers providing a range of Linux IRQ numbers to be used as IPIs and IPI triggering is done using generic IPI APIs. This approach allows architectures to treat IPIs as normal Linux IRQs and IPI stats gathering is done by the generic Linux IRQ subsystem. We extend the RISC-V IPI handling as-per above approach so that arch specific IPI handling methods (struct riscv_ipi_ops) can be removed and the IPI handling is done through the Linux IRQ subsystem.
