New Kconfig is added "CONFIG_IRQ_DEBUG_SUPPORT" to add a warn_on
to alert the usage of soft_irq_set_mask() for disabling lower
bitmask interrupts.

Have also moved the code under the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS in
arch_local_irq_restore() to new Kconfig as suggested.

Patch also adds a new soft_irq_set_mask() to update paca->soft_enabled.

One other thing, if we have:

local_irq_save(flags);              // disable LINUX mask -> LINUX
local_irq_and_pmu_save(flags);      // disable PMU   mask -> LINUX|PMU
local_irq_and_pmu_restore(flags);   // enable  PMU   mask -> LINUX
local_irq_restore(flags);           // enable  LINUX mask -> NONE

Then the nested code that re-enables PMUs will not replay PMU interrupt
until the outer irq is re-enabled. I don't *think* this is a problem,
but it probably should be commented.

Which brings us to arch_local_irq_restore() (from another patch):

I think this is a bit buggy for some cases of nested disables. For the
above it is okay, but if we have:

local_irq_and_pmu_save(flags);
local_irq_and_pmu_save(flags);
local_irq_and_pmu_restore(flags);
local_irq_and_pmu_restore(flags);


The first restore will restore LINUX|PMU mask, which will not be caught
by this check.

Testing instead for non-zero (any IRQ bits masked) should work. We should probably also add an IRQ_DEBUG_SUPPORT check to ensure LINUX bit is always
one of the outer-most bits to be cleared (theoretically we could support

Just sent out the newer version of the patchset with most of the comments addressed. But I am not sure about this comment. IIUC, will something like this will do?


Sorry. Sent a wrong patch before along with the question..

        WARN_ONCE (en & (en & IRQ_DISABLE_MASK_LINUX),
                   "soft_enabled transition to Unsupported state\n");

masking other bits without masking LINUX, but let's disallow that until a
compelling use case shows up).

Thanks,
