powerpc/powernv: Fix oops on P9 DD1 in cause_ipi()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Recently we merged the native xive support for Power9, and then separately some
reworks for doorbell IPI support. In isolation both series were OK, but the
merged result had a bug in one case.

On P9 DD1 we use pnv_p9_dd1_cause_ipi() which tries to use doorbells, and then
falls back to the interrupt controller. However the fallback is implemented by
calling icp_ops->cause_ipi. But now that xive support is merged we might be
using xive, in which case icp_ops is not initialised, it's a xics specific
structure. This leads to an oops such as:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000028
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  NIP pnv_p9_dd1_cause_ipi+0x74/0xe0
  LR smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass+0x54/0x70

To fix it, rather than using icp_ops which might be NULL, have both xics and
xive set smp_ops->cause_ipi, and then in the powernv code we save that as
ic_cause_ipi before overriding smp_ops->cause_ipi. For paranoia add a WARN_ON()
to check if somehow smp_ops->cause_ipi is NULL.
