Hi,
As a heads-up, on v4.9-rc1 I see conflicts at least against arch/arm64/Kconfig. Luckily git am -3 seems to be able to fix that up automatically, but this will need to be rebased before the next posting and/or merging.

Urgh.
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
If I understand correctly, from this point of view, kernel don't handle the secure interrupt. But the current arm_arch_timer driver still enable/disable/request PHYS_SECURE_PPI with PHYS_NONSECURE_PPI. That means we still need to parse the secure interrupt. Please correct me, if I misunderstand something? :-)
(b) we should drop the check above
yes, if zero is a valid GSIV, this makes sense.
(c) we should report the spec issue to the ASWG
+/*
- acpi_gtdt_c3stop - got c3stop info from GTDT
- Returns 1 if the timer is powered in deep idle state, 0 otherwise.
- */
+bool __init acpi_gtdt_c3stop(void) +{
struct acpi_table_gtdt *gtdt = acpi_gtdt_desc.gtdt;
return !(gtdt->non_secure_el1_flags & ACPI_GTDT_ALWAYS_ON);
+}
It looks like this can differ per interrupt. Shouldn't we check the appropriate one?
yes, I think you are right.
I think Mark already clarified this it's a global flag which defined in the spec, and we don't need to update it.
Thanks Hanjun
