We currently walk through the range 0..gic_vpes-1, expecting these values all to be valid Linux CPU numbers to provide to mips_cm_vp_id(), and masking all routable local interrupts during boot. This approach has a few drawbacks: - In multi-cluster systems we won't have access to all CPU's GIC local registers when the driver is probed, since clusters (and their GICs) may be powered down at this point & only brought online later. - In multi-cluster systems we may power down clusters at runtime, for example if we offline all CPUs within it via hotplug, and the cluster's GIC may lose state. We therefore need to reinitialise it when powering back up, which this approach does not take into account. - The range 0..gic_vpes-1 may not all be valid Linux CPU numbers, for example if we run a kernel configured to support fewer CPUs than the system it is running on actually has. In this case we'll get garbage values from mips_cm_vp_id() as we read past the end of the cpu_data array. Fix this and simplify the code somewhat by writing an all-bits-set value to the VP-local reset mask register when a CPU is brought online, before any local interrupts are configured for it. This removes the need for us to access all CPUs during driver probe, removing all of the problems described above. In the name of simplicity we drop the checks for routability of interrupts and simply clear the mask bits for all interrupts. Bits for non-routable local interrupts will have no effect so there's no point performing extra work to avoid modifying them.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
