Code such as on_selected_cpus expects/requires that an IPI can preempt a
processor which is just handling a normal interrupt. Lacking this property can
result in a deadlock between two CPUs trying to IPI each other from interrupt
context.

For the time being there is only two priorities, IRQ and IPI, although it is
also conceivable that in the future some IPIs might be higher priority than
others. This could be used to implement a better BUG() than we have now, but I
haven't tackled that yet.

Tested with a debug patch which sends a local IPI from a keyhandler, which is
run in serial interrupt context.

This should also fix the issue reported by Oleksandr in "xen/arm:
maintenance_interrupt SMP fix" without resorting to trylock.

I think this is probably 4.5 material at this point.

Tested with "HACK: dump pcpu state keyhandler" which I'll post for
completeness. It gives:

It looks simple enough.
Oleksandr, I would appreciate if could test the patch and tell us if it
is working well for you.

Ping?

I think this patch was shown to be an improvement but it lacks an actual
ack.

I'm wondering if it's necessary to set the priority for PPIs. It will be
overridden later when the interrupt will be setup. Until that time, the
interrupt is not enabled.

Strictly speaking probably not, but there isn't much harm in setting a
sane default I suppose.

Right, I didn't see that we also do that for SPIs.

I have a minor change to request, can you divide the comment "Set PPI
and SGI priorities" in 2 to reflect was does each loop?

Except that:

Hello, all.

I tested this patch (with debug patch) when I was looking for solution
to fix "simultaneous cross-interrupts" (see 1.1):
http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2014-01/msg02685.html
This patch didn't fix my issue.
When the solution was founded I forgot about this patch)

Now I am using next solution:
http://marc.info/?l=xen-devel&m=139153089412362&w=2

But anyway, your patch works and looks good and I don't mind it.
Thank you.

Speaking of which, it should probably be applied to xen-unstable now
that the gate is open?

Julien acked it but had a couple of minor comments which I wanted to
address today. I hope to repost later on.

Oh you meant the route irqs to dom0 patch in the link not the one in
this thread. I'll pick that one up today as well I hope.

With the IPI patch, I don't think we need the route irqs to CPU0 patch
(at least for Xen 4.5). It would be better to backport it for Xen 4.4.

Oleksndr said above that the IPI patch didn't help but the CPU0 one did.
But rereading I wonder if I am misinterpreting what was said.

Because of this uncertainty I'm going to wait for confirmation of what
is going on before I apply "xen/arm: route irqs to cpu0".
