GIC IAR always returns spurious interrupt

Steve Jahr
Note: This was originally posted on 29th March 2012 at http://forums.arm.com

Trying to write a GIC driver (V1 w/security extensions) on an embedded A9 MPCORE based system with 2 cores.

Can successfully initialize GIC and issue SGI interrupt from each CPU to the other CPU.
These interrupts show up on each side in pending state.
IRQ posted to CPU, CPU responds and reads IAR getting 0x3ff response.
GIC changes state of interrupt from pending to active.
GIC adjusts running priority to priority of active interrupt.

I have verified that CPUs are running in secure mode and all interrupts are configured in secure mode.
I have compared my code with the ARM ukernel reference code and can find no material differences (I have changed mine to more closely match all options).

What am I missing here?  How is it that the GIC seems to believe a valid interrupt acknowledge has occurred (as indicated by change of interrupt state) but not return valid interrupt ID to IAR read?
