The existing riscv kernel still lacks a NMI mechanism. It now
disables interrupts via per cpu control register CSR_STATUS,
the SIE bit of which controls the enablement of all interrupts
of whole cpu.
This patch series introduces a pseudo NMI mechanism in RISC-V
by switching interrupt disable way to another per cpu control
register CSR_IE. This register controls the enablement of each
seperate interrupt. Every bit of CSR_IE corresponds to a single
major interrupt and a clear bit means disablement of corresponding
interrupt. The main procedure of implementing pseudo NMI via
CSR_IE consists of three steps:
Stage1:
Make CSR_IE register part of thread context to avoid irq status
inconsistence after context switch.
Stage2:
Switch to CSR_IE masking when disabling irqs. When interrupts
are disabled, all bits of CSR_IE corresponding to normal
interrupts are cleared while bits corresponding to NMIs are
still kept as ones.
Stage3:
Enable NMIs mannualy during exceptions and normal interrupts as
hardware automatically disables all interrupts when trapped into
supervisor mode.
Xu Lu (3):
riscv: Enable NMIs during normal interrupt handling
riscv: Request pmu overflow interrupt as NMI
riscv: Enable CONFIG_RISCV_PSEUDO_NMI in default
