Merge tag 'docs-6.6' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"Documentation work keeps chugging along; this includes:
- Work from Carlos Bilbao to integrate rustdoc output into the
generated HTML documentation. This took some work to figure out how
to do it without slowing the docs build and without creating people
who don't have Rust installed, but Carlos got there
- Move the loongarch and mips architecture documentation under
Documentation/arch/
- Some more maintainer documentation from Jakub
... plus the usual assortment of updates, translations, and fixes"

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +======================================= +IRQ chip model (hierarchy) of LoongArch +======================================= + +Currently, LoongArch based processors (e.g. Loongson-3A5000) can only work together +with LS7A chipsets. The irq chips in LoongArch computers include CPUINTC (CPU Core +Interrupt Controller), LIOINTC (Legacy I/O Interrupt Controller), EIOINTC (Extended +I/O Interrupt Controller), HTVECINTC (Hyper-Transport Vector Interrupt Controller), +PCH-PIC (Main Interrupt Controller in LS7A chipset), PCH-LPC (LPC Interrupt Controller +in LS7A chipset) and PCH-MSI (MSI Interrupt Controller). + +CPUINTC is a per-core controller (in CPU), LIOINTC/EIOINTC/HTVECINTC are per-package +controllers (in CPU), while PCH-PIC/PCH-LPC/PCH-MSI are controllers out of CPU (i.e., +in chipsets). These controllers (in other words, irqchips) are linked in a hierarchy, +and there are two models of hierarchy (legacy model and extended model). + +Legacy IRQ model +================ + +In this model, IPI (Inter-Processor Interrupt) and CPU Local Timer interrupt go +to CPUINTC directly, CPU UARTS interrupts go to LIOINTC, while all other devices +interrupts go to PCH-PIC/PCH-LPC/PCH-MSI and gathered by HTVECINTC, and then go +to LIOINTC, and then CPUINTC:: + + +-----+ +---------+ +-------+ + | IPI | --> | CPUINTC | <-- | Timer | + +-----+ +---------+ +-------+ + ^ + | + +---------+ +-------+ + | LIOINTC | <-- | UARTs | + +---------+ +-------+ + ^ + | + +-----------+ + | HTVECINTC | + +-----------+ + ^ ^ + | | + +---------+ +---------+ + | PCH-PIC | | PCH-MSI | + +---------+ +---------+ + ^ ^ ^ + | | | + +---------+ +---------+ +---------+ + | PCH-LPC | | Devices | | Devices | + +---------+ +---------+ +---------+ + ^ + | + +---------+ + | Devices | + +---------+ + +Extended IRQ model +================== + +In this model, IPI (Inter-Processor Interrupt) and CPU Local Timer interrupt go +to CPUINTC directly, CPU UARTS interrupts go to LIOINTC, while all other devices +interrupts go to PCH-PIC/PCH-LPC/PCH-MSI and gathered by EIOINTC, and then go to +to CPUINTC directly:: + + +-----+ +---------+ +-------+ + | IPI | --> | CPUINTC | <-- | Timer | + +-----+ +---------+ +-------+ + ^ ^ + | | + +---------+ +---------+ +-------+ + | EIOINTC | | LIOINTC | <-- | UARTs | + +---------+ +---------+ +-------+ + ^ ^ + | | + +---------+ +---------+ + | PCH-PIC | | PCH-MSI | + +---------+ +---------+ + ^ ^ ^ + | | | + +---------+ +---------+ +---------+ + | PCH-LPC | | Devices | | Devices | + +---------+ +---------+ +---------+ + ^ + | + +---------+ + | Devices | + +---------+ + +ACPI-related definitions +======================== + +CPUINTC:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_CORE_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_core_pic; + enum acpi_madt_core_pic_version; + +LIOINTC:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_LIO_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_lio_pic; + enum acpi_madt_lio_pic_version; + +EIOINTC:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_EIO_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_eio_pic; + enum acpi_madt_eio_pic_version; + +HTVECINTC:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_HT_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_ht_pic; + enum acpi_madt_ht_pic_version; + +PCH-PIC:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_BIO_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_bio_pic; + enum acpi_madt_bio_pic_version; + +PCH-MSI:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_MSI_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_msi_pic; + enum acpi_madt_msi_pic_version; + +PCH-LPC:: + + ACPI_MADT_TYPE_LPC_PIC; + struct acpi_madt_lpc_pic; + enum acpi_madt_lpc_pic_version; + +References +========== + +Documentation of Loongson-3A5000: + + https://github.com/loongson/LoongArch-Documentation/releases/latest/download/Loongson-3A5000-usermanual-1.02-CN.pdf (in Chinese) + + https://github.com/loongson/LoongArch-Documentation/releases/latest/download/Loongson-3A5000-usermanual-1.02-EN.pdf (in English) + +Documentation of Loongson's LS7A chipset: + + https://github.com/loongson/LoongArch-Documentation/releases/latest/download/Loongson-7A1000-usermanual-2.00-CN.pdf (in Chinese) + + https://github.com/loongson/LoongArch-Documentation/releases/latest/download/Loongson-7A1000-usermanual-2.00-EN.pdf (in English) + +..
