Only the secure interrupt (which we do not need) is optional in this manner, and (hilariously), zero appears to also be a valid GSIV, per figure 5-24 in the ACPI 6.1 spec.
So, I think that:
(a) we should not bother parsing the secure interrupt (b) we should drop the check above (c) we should report the spec issue to the ASWG
Sorry, I willing to do that, but I need to figure out the issue here. What kind of issue in detail? do you mean that zero should not be valid for arch timer interrupts?
As above, zero is a valid GSIV, and is valid for the non-secure timer interrupts. The check is wrong for non-secure interrupts.
We can ignore the secure timer interrupt since it's irrelevant to us, and remove the check.
Regardless, the spec is inconsistent w.r.t. the secure interrupt being zero if not present, since zero is a valid GSIV. That should be reported to the ASWG.
Thanks, Mark.
