2011-10-06pseries: Bugfixes for interrupt numbering in XICS codeDavid Gibson
The implementation of the XICS interrupt controller contains several (difficult to trigger) bugs due to the fact that we were not 100% consistent with which irq numbering we used. In most places, global numbers were used as handled by the presentation layer, however a few functions took "local" numberings, that is the source number within the interrupt source controller which is offset from the global number. In most cases the function and its caller agreed on this, but in a few cases it didn't. This patch cleans this up by always using global numbering. Translation to the local number is now always and only done when we look up the individual interrupt source state structure. This should remove the existing bugs and with luck reduce the chances of re-introducing such bugs.

2011-04-08pseries: Abolish envs arrayDavid Gibson
Currently the pseries machine init code builds up an array, envs, of CPUState pointers for all the cpus in the system. This is kind of pointless, given the generic code already has a perfectly good linked list of the cpus. In addition, there are a number of places which assume that the cpu's cpu_index field is equal to its index in this array. This is true in practice, because cpu_index values are just assigned sequentially, but it's conceptually incorrect and may not always be true. Therefore, this patch abolishes the envs array, and explicitly uses the generic cpu linked list and cpu_index values throughout.

2011-04-01Implement the PAPR (pSeries) virtualized interrupt controller (xics)David Gibson
PAPR defines an interrupt control architecture which is logically divided into ICS (Interrupt Control Presentation, each unit is responsible for presenting interrupts to a particular "interrupt server", i.e. CPU) and ICS (Interrupt Control Source, each unit responsible for one or more hardware interrupts as numbered globally across the system). All PAPR virtual IO devices expect to deliver interrupts via this mechanism. In Linux, this interrupt controller system is handled by the "xics" driver. On pSeries systems, access to the interrupt controller is virtualized via hypercalls and RTAS methods. However, the virtualized interface is very similar to the underlying interrupt controller hardware, and similar PICs exist un-virtualized in some other systems. This patch implements both the ICP and ICS sides of the PAPR interrupt controller. For now, only the hypercall virtualized interface is provided, however it would be relatively straightforward to graft an emulated register interface onto the underlying interrupt logic if we want to add a machine with a hardware ICS/ICP system in the future. There are some limitations in this implementation: it is assumed for now that only one instance of the ICS exists, although a full xics system can have several, each responsible for a different group of hardware irqs. ICP/ICS can handle both level-sensitve (LSI) and message signalled (MSI) interrupt inputs. For now, this implementation supports only MSI interrupts, since that is used by PAPR virtual IO devices.
