• GIC-v3: control of group 0 interrupts activation and selection
    Hi, I have two main questions, about the handling of group 0 interrupts: from my understanding of the GIC-v3 documentation, any secure OS (EL1, SCR.NS == 0) has access to ICC_IGRPEN0_EL1: Am I correct...

  • GIC 3.0's SGI interrupt latency seems much bigger than GIC 2.0
    Hi, I tested SGI interrupt latency, it seems that GIC3.0's SGI interrupt latency are much bigger than GIC2.0. How to test: GIC3.0: 1. read timestamp(t01) 2. core0 write ICC_SGI0R_EL1 to trigger...
