      psci: fix affinity level upgrade issue · 75f7367b
      Achin Gupta authored
      The psci implementation does not track target affinity level requests
      specified during cpu_suspend calls correctly as per the following
      example.
      
      1. cpu0.cluster0 calls cpu_suspend with the target affinity level as 0
      2. Only the cpu0.cluster0 is powered down while cluster0 remains
         powered up
      3. cpu1.cluster0 calls cpu_off to power itself down to highest
         possible affinity level
      4. cluster0 will be powered off even though cpu0.cluster0 does not
         allow cluster shutdown
      
      This patch introduces reference counts at affinity levels > 0 to track
      the number of cpus which want an affinity instance at level X to
      remain powered up. This instance can be turned off only if its
      reference count is 0. Cpus still undergo the normal state transitions
      (ON, OFF, ON_PENDING, SUSPEND) but the higher levels can only be
      either ON or OFF depending upon their reference count.
      
      The above issue is thus fixed as follows:
      
      1. cluster0's reference count is incremented by two when cpu0 and cpu1
         are initially powered on.
      
      2. cpu0.cluster0 calls cpu_suspend with the target affinity level as
         0. This does not affect the cluster0 reference count.
      
      3. Only the cpu0.cluster0 is powered down while cluster0 remains
         powered up as it has a non-zero reference count.
      
      4. cpu1.cluster0 call cpu_off to power itself down to highest possible
         affinity level. This decrements the cluster0 reference count.
      
      5. cluster0 is still not powered off since its reference count will at
         least be 1 due to the restriction placed by cpu0.

      psci: rectify and homogenise generic code · 0959db5c
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch performs a major rework of the psci generic implementation
      to achieve the following:
      
      1. replace recursion with iteration where possible to aid code
         readability e.g. affinity instance states are changed iteratively
         instead of recursively.
      
      2. acquire pointers to affinity instance nodes at the beginning of a
         psci operation. All subsequent actions use these pointers instead
         of calling psci_get_aff_map_node() repeatedly e.g. management of
         locks has been abstracted under functions which use these pointers
         to ensure correct ordering. Helper functions have been added to
         create these abstractions.
      
      3. assertions have been added to cpu level handlers to ensure correct
         state transition
      
      4. the affinity level extents specified to various functions have the
         same meaning i.e. start level is always less than the end level.
