      arm64: arch_timer: Work around QorIQ Erratum A-008585 · f6dc1576
      由 Scott Wood 提交于 
      Erratum A-008585 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has the
potential to contain an erroneous value for a small number of core
clock cycles every time the timer value changes".  Accesses to TVAL
(both read and write) are also affected due to the implicit counter
read.  Accesses to CVAL are not affected.

The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive
reads return the same value.  Writes to TVAL are replaced with an
equivalent write to CVAL.

The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads
return the same value, and when writing TVAL to retry until counter
reads before and after the write return the same value.

The workaround is enabled if the fsl,erratum-a008585 property is found in
the timer node in the device tree.  This can be overridden with the
clocksource.arm_arch_timer.fsl-a008585 boot parameter, which allows KVM
users to enable the workaround until a mechanism is implemented to
automatically communicate this information.

This erratum can be found on LS1043A and LS2080A.

      clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Force per-CPU interrupt to be level-triggered · f005bd7e
      由 Marc Zyngier 提交于 
      The ARM architected timer produces level-triggered interrupts (this
is mandated by the architecture). Unfortunately, a number of
device-trees get this wrong, and expose an edge-triggered interrupt.

Until now, this wasn't too much an issue, as the programming of the
trigger would fail (the corresponding PPI cannot be reconfigured),
and the kernel would be happy with this. But we're about to change
this, and trust DT a lot if the driver doesn't provide its own
trigger information. In that context, the timer breaks badly.

While we do need to fix the DTs, there is also some userspace out
there (kvmtool) that generates the same kind of broken DT on the
fly, and that will completely break with newer kernels.

As a safety measure, and to keep buggy software alive as well as
buying us some time to fix DTs all over the place, let's check
what trigger configuration has been given us by the firmware.
If this is not a level configuration, then we know that the
DT/ACPI configuration is bust, and we pick some defaults which
won't be worse than the existing setup.
