<title>PowerPC External Interrupt Option</title>
|
|
<para>The PowerPC External Interrupt option is based upon a subset of the
|
|
PowerPC External Interrupt Architecture. The PowerPC External Interrupt
|
|
Architecture contains a register-level architectural definition of an interrupt
|
|
control structure. This architecture defines means for assigning properties
|
|
such as priority, destination, etc., to I/O and interprocessor interrupts, as
|
|
well as an interface for presenting them to processors. It supports both
|
|
specific and distributed methods for interrupt delivery. See also

|
|
<para>In NUMA platform configurations, the interrupt controllers may be
|
|
configured in disjoint domains. The firmware makes the server numbers visible
|
|
to any single OS image appear to come from a single space without duplication.
|
|
This may be done by appropriately initializing the interrupt presentation
|
|
controllers or the firmware may translate the server numbers presented to it in
|
|
RTAS calls before entering them into the interrupt controller registers. The OS
|
|
is made aware that certain interrupts are only served by certain servers by the
|
|
inclusion of the <emphasis role="bold"><literal>“ibm,interrupt-domain”</literal></emphasis>

<title>MSI Option</title>
|
|
<para>The Message Signaled Interrupt (MSI) or Enhanced MSI (MSI-X)
|
|
capability of PCI IOAs in many cases allows for greater flexibility in
|
|
assignment of external interrupts to IOA functions than the predecessor Level
|
|
Sensitive Interrupt (LSI) capability, and in some cases treats MSIs as a
|
|
resource pool that can be reassigned based on availability of MSIs and the need
|
|
of an IOA function for more interrupts than initially assigned. Platforms that
|
|
implement the MSI option implement the <emphasis>ibm,change-msi</emphasis> and
|
|
<emphasis>ibm,query-interrupt-source-number</emphasis> RTAS calls. These RTAS
|
|
calls manage interrupts in a platform that implements the MSI option. In
|
|
particular, these calls assign additional MSI resources to an IOA function (as
|
|
defined by its PCI configuration address: <emphasis>PHB_Unit_ID_Hi,
|
|
PHB_Unit_ID_Low, and config_addr</emphasis>), when supported by the platform.
|
|
See <xref linkend="LoPAR.RTAS"/> for more information on theses RTAS calls for
|
|
MSI management.</para>
|
|
<para>This architecture will refer generically to the MSI and MSI-X
|
|
capabilities as simply “MSI,” except where differentiation is
|
|
required. In this architecture, MSIs and LSIs are what the IOA function
|
|
signals, and what the software sees for that signal is ultimately the LSI or
|
|
MSI <emphasis>source number</emphasis>. The interrupt source numbers returned
|
|
by the <emphasis>ibm,query-interrupt-source-number</emphasis> RTAS call are
|
|
the numbers used to control the interrupt as in the <emphasis>ibm,get-xive</emphasis>,
|
|
<emphasis>ibm,set-xive</emphasis>, <emphasis>ibm,int-on</emphasis>,
|
|
and <emphasis>ibm,int-off</emphasis> RTAS calls.</para>
|
|
<para>PCI-X and PCI Express IOA functions that signal interrupts are
|
|
required by the PCI specifications to implement either the MSI or MSI-X
|
|
interrupt capabilities, or both. For PCI Express, it is expected that IOAs will
|
|
only support MSI or MSI-X (that is, no support for LSIs). When both MSI and
|
|
MSI-X are implemented by an IOA function, the MSI method will be configured by
|
|
the platform, but may be overridden by the OS or device driver, via the
|
|
<emphasis>ibm,change-msi</emphasis> RTAS call, to be MSI-X or, if assigned by
|
|
the firmware, to LSI (by removal of the MSIs assigned).

<para>The <emphasis>ibm,change-msi</emphasis> RTAS call is used to query

|
the initial number of MSIs assigned to a PCI configuration address and to

|
request a change in the number of MSIs assigned. The MSIs interrupt source
|
|
numbers assigned to an IOA function are returned via the

|
<emphasis>ibm,query-interrupt-source-number</emphasis>
|
|
RTAS call. In addition, when the

<emphasis>ibm,query-interrupt-source-number</emphasis> RTAS call is

|
implemented, it may be used to query the LSI source numbers, also. The
|
|
<emphasis>ibm,query-interrupt-source-number</emphasis> RTAS call is called
|
|
iteratively, once for each interrupt assigned to the IOA function. When an IOA
|
|
function receives an initial assignment of an LSI, the interrupt number for
|
|
that LSI may also be obtained through the same OF device tree properties that
|
|
are used to report interrupt information when the

<emphasis>ibm,query-interrupt-source-number</emphasis> RTAS call is not
