Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 09/10] irqchip: ti-sci-inta: Add support for Interrupt
 Aggregator driver

Aren't the last two points the same thing? Also, can you please define
what an "event" is? What is its semantic? If they look like interrupts,
can we just name them as such?

If you need an ack callback, why is this part of the eoi? We have
interrupt flows that allow you to combine both, so why don't you use that?

Also, the __raw_writeq call is probably wrong, as it assumes that both
the CPU and the INTA have the same endianness.

clear_bit is atomic. Why do you need a spinlock?

That's absolutely horrid...

What guarantees that you only have a single "event" left here?

Why disabling the interrupts? Do you expect to take this lock
concurrently with an interrupt? Why isn't it enough to just have a mutex
instead?

Reading patch #5, shouldn't you at least test for the validity of what

Please rename this function to something less ambiguous (you've prefixed
all functions so far, why not this one?).

Why isn't that flag an additional parameter instead of mixing stuff
coming from DT and things that are purely internal?

Frankly, what is the point of doing that? Why don't you simply pass the

NAK. Either this fits in the standard model, or we adapt the standard
model to catter for your particular use case. But we don't define a new,
TI specific API.

I have a hunch that if the IDs are generated dynamically, then the model
we use for MSIs would fit this thing. I also want to understand what
this event is, and how drivers get notified that such an event has fired.

So please explain what this is all about, and we'll work out something.
In the meantime, I'll stop here for that particular patch.

Thanks,
