It is possible that an interrupt is disabled and masked at the same time.
When the interrupt is enabled again by enable_irq(), only plic_irq_enable()
is called, not plic_irq_unmask(). The interrupt remains masked and never
raises.
An example where interrupt is both disabled and masked is when
handle_fasteoi_irq() is the handler, and IRQS_ONESHOT is set. The interrupt
handler:
1. Mask the interrupt
2. Handle the interrupt
3. Check if interrupt is still enabled, and unmask it (see
cond_unmask_eoi_irq())
If another task disables the interrupt in the middle of the above steps,
the interrupt will not get unmasked, and will remain masked when it is
enabled in the future.
The problem is occasionally observed when PREEMPT_RT is enabled, because
PREEMPT_RT adds the IRQS_ONESHOT flag. But PREEMPT_RT only makes the problem
more likely to appear, the bug has been around since commit

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
