2015-06-18powerpc/powernv: Increase opal-irqchip initcall priorityAlistair Popple
The eeh subsystem for powernv requires the opal event irqchip to be initialised prior to initialisation or the following errors are produced (and eeh doesn't work as expected): irq: XICS didn't like hwirq-0x9 to VIRQ17 mapping (rc=-22) pnv_eeh_post_init: Can't request OPAL event interrupt (0) On powernv eeh is initialised from a subsys_initcall due to a check for machine_is(powernv) in eeh_init(). This patch increases the initcall priority of opal_event_init() to an arch_initcall to ensure the opal event interface is initialised prior to any users of it.

2015-05-22opal: Remove events notifierAlistair Popple
All users of the old opal events notifier have been converted over to the irq domain so remove the event notifier functions. Signed-off-by: Alistair Popple <alistair@popple.id.au> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2015-05-22powerpc/powernv: Add a virtual irqchip for opal eventsAlistair Popple
Whenever an interrupt is received for opal the linux kernel gets a bitfield indicating certain events that have occurred and need handling by the various device drivers. Currently this is handled using a notifier interface where we call every device driver that has registered to receive opal events. This approach has several drawbacks. For example each driver has to do its own checking to see if the event is relevant as well as event masking. There is also no easy method of recording the number of times we receive particular events. This patch solves these issues by exposing opal events via the standard interrupt APIs by adding a new interrupt chip and domain. Drivers can then register for the appropriate events using standard kernel calls such as irq_of_parse_and_map().
