90428a8eb4 genirq/PM: Introduce IRQCHIP_ENABLE_WAKEUP_ON_SUSPEND flag
An interrupt that is disabled/masked but set for wakeup may still need to
be able to wake up the system from sleep states like "suspend to RAM".

To that effect, introduce the IRQCHIP_ENABLE_WAKEUP_ON_SUSPEND flag.
If the irqchip have this flag set, the irq PM code will enable/unmask
the irqs that are marked for wakeup, but that are in a disabled state.

On resume, such irqs will be restored back to their disabled state.

3a79bc63d9 PCI: irq: Introduce rearm_wake_irq()
Introduce a new function, rearm_wake_irq(), allowing a wakeup IRQ
to be armed for systen wakeup detection again without running any
action handlers associated with it after it has been armed for
wakeup detection and triggered.

That is useful for IRQs, like ACPI SCI, that may deliver wakeup
as well as non-wakeup interrupts when armed for systen wakeup
detection.  In those cases, it may be possible to determine whether
or not the delivered interrupt is a systen wakeup one without
running the entire action handler (or handlers, if the IRQ is
shared) for the IRQ, and if the interrupt turns out to be a
non-wakeup one, the IRQ can be rearmed with the help of the
new function.

a696712c3d genirq/PM: Properly pretend disabled state when force resuming interrupts
Interrupts with the IRQF_FORCE_RESUME flag set have also the
IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag set. They are not disabled in the suspend path, but
must be forcefully resumed. That's used by XEN to keep IPIs enabled beyond
the suspension of device irqs. Force resume works by pretending that the
interrupt was disabled and then calling __irq_enable().

Incrementing the disabled depth counter was enough to do that, but with the
recent changes which use state flags to avoid unnecessary hardware access,
this is not longer sufficient. If the state flags are not set, then the
hardware callbacks are not invoked and the interrupt line stays disabled in
"hardware".

Set the disabled and masked state when pretending that an interrupt got
disabled by suspend.

4717f13373 genirq/PM: Restore system wake up from chained interrupts
Commit e509bd7da1 ("genirq: Allow migration of chained interrupts
by installing default action") breaks PCS wake up IRQ behaviour on
TI OMAP based platforms (dra7-evm).

TI OMAP IRQ wake up configuration:
GIC-irqchip->PCM_IRQ
  |- omap_prcm_register_chain_handler
     |- PRCM-irqchip -> PRCM_IO_IRQ
        |- pcs_irq_chain_handler
           |- pinctrl-irqchip -> PCS_uart1_wakeup_irq

This happens because IRQ PM code (irq/pm.c) is expected to ignore
chained interrupts by default:
  static bool suspend_device_irq(struct irq_desc *desc)
  {
	if (!desc->action || desc->no_suspend_depth)
		return false;
 - it's expected !desc->action = true for chained interrupts;

but, after above change, all chained interrupt descriptors will
have default action handler installed - chained_action.
As result, chained interrupts will be silently disabled during system
suspend.

Hence, fix it by introducing helper function irq_desc_is_chained() and
use it in suspend_device_irq() for chained interrupts identification
and skip them, once detected.

3c646f2c6a genirq: Don't suspend nested_thread irqs over system suspend
Nested IRQs can only fire when the parent irq fires.  So when the
parent is suspended, there is no need to suspend the child irq.

Suspending nested irqs can cause a problem is they are suspended or
resumed in the wrong order.  If an interrupt fires while the parent is
active but the child is suspended, then the interrupt will not be
acknowledged properly and so an interrupt storm can result.  This is
particularly likely if the parent is resumed before the child, and the
interrupt was raised during suspend.

Ensuring correct ordering would be possible, but it is simpler to just
never suspend nested interrupts.

17f4803420 genirq / PM: Add flag for shared NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines
It currently is required that all users of NO_SUSPEND interrupt
lines pass the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag when requesting the IRQ or the
WARN_ON_ONCE() in irq_pm_install_action() will trigger.  That is
done to warn about situations in which unprepared interrupt handlers
may be run unnecessarily for suspended devices and may attempt to
access those devices by mistake.  However, it may cause drivers
that have no technical reasons for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND to set
that flag just because they happen to share the interrupt line
with something like a timer.

Moreover, the generic handling of wakeup interrupts introduced by
commit 9ce7a25849 (genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanism) only works
for IRQs without any NO_SUSPEND users, so the drivers of wakeup
devices needing to use shared NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines for
signaling system wakeup generally have to detect wakeup in their
interrupt handlers.  Thus if they happen to share an interrupt line
with a NO_SUSPEND user, they also need to request that their
interrupt handlers be run after suspend_device_irqs().

In both cases the reason for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND is not because
the driver in question has a genuine need to run its interrupt
handler after suspend_device_irqs(), but because it happens to
share the line with some other NO_SUSPEND user.  Otherwise, the
driver would do without IRQF_NO_SUSPEND just fine.

To make it possible to specify that condition explicitly, introduce
a new IRQ action handler flag for shared IRQs, IRQF_COND_SUSPEND,
that, when set, will indicate to the IRQ core that the interrupt
user is generally fine with suspending the IRQ, but it also can
tolerate handler invocations after suspend_device_irqs() and, in
particular, it is capable of detecting system wakeup and triggering
it as appropriate from its interrupt handler.

That will allow us to work around a problem with a shared timer
interrupt line on at91 platforms.

9ce7a25849 genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanism
Currently we suspend wakeup interrupts by lazy disabling them and
check later whether the interrupt has fired, but that's not sufficient
for suspend to idle as there is no way to check that once we
transitioned into the CPU idle state.

So we change the mechanism in the following way:

1) Leave the wakeup interrupts enabled across suspend

2) Add a check to irq_may_run() which is called at the beginning of
   each flow handler whether the interrupt is an armed wakeup source.

   This check is basically free as it just extends the existing check
   for IRQD_IRQ_INPROGRESS. So no new conditional in the hot path.

   If the IRQD_WAKEUP_ARMED flag is set, then the interrupt is
   disabled, marked as pending/suspended and the pm core is notified
   about the wakeup event.

ac01810c9d irq: Enable all irqs unconditionally in irq_resume
When the system enters suspend, it disables all interrupts in
suspend_device_irqs(), including the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME.

On the resume side things are different. The EARLY_RESUME interrupts
are reenabled in sys_core_ops->resume and the non EARLY_RESUME
interrupts are reenabled in the normal system resume path.

When suspend_noirq() failed or suspend is aborted for any other
reason, we might omit the resume side call to sys_core_ops->resume()
and therefor the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME are not reenabled and
stay disabled forever.

To solve this, enable all irqs unconditionally in irq_resume()
regardless whether interrupts marked EARLY_RESUMEhave been already
enabled or not.

This might try to reenable already enabled interrupts in the non
failure case, but the only affected platform is XEN and it has been
confirmed that it does not cause any side effects.

d209a699a0 genirq: Add chip flag to force mask on suspend
On suspend we disable all interrupts in the core code, but this does
not mask the interrupt line in the default implementation as we use a
lazy disable approach. That means we mark the interrupt disabled, but
leave the hardware unmasked. That's an optimization because we avoid
the hardware access for the common case where no interrupt happens
after we marked it disabled. If an interrupt happens, then the
interrupt flow handler masks the line at the hardware level and marks
it pending.

Suspend makes use of this delayed disable as it "disables" all
interrupts when preparing the suspend transition. Right before the
system goes into hardware suspend state it checks whether one of the
interrupts which is marked as a wakeup interrupt came in after
disabling it.

Most interrupt chips have a separate register which selects the
interrupts which can wake up the system from suspend, so we don't have
to mask any on the non wakeup interrupts.

But now we have to deal with brilliant designed hardware which lacks
such a wakeup configuration facility. For such hardware it's necessary
to mask all non wakeup interrupts before going into suspend in order
to avoid the wakeup from random interrupts.

Rather than working around this in the affected interrupt chip
implementations we can solve this elegant in the core code itself.

Add a flag IRQCHIP_MASK_ON_SUSPEND which can be set by the irq chip
implementation to indicate, that the interrupts which are not selected
as wakeup sources must be masked in the suspend path. Mask them in the
loop which checks the wakeup interrupts pending flag.

0a0c5168df PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interrupts
Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from
getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU)
during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive
interrupts again during the subsequent resume.  These functions make it
possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being
executed.  In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc.

The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of
interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume.  Namely,
interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending
sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving
interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their
"late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).
