Linux kernel source tree

When using IRQ priority masking to disable interrupts, in order to deal
with the PSR.I state, local_irq_save() would convert the I bit into a
PMR value (GIC_PRIO_IRQOFF). This resulted in local_irq_restore()
potentially modifying the value of PMR in undesired location due to the
state of PSR.I upon flag saving [1].
In an attempt to solve this issue in a less hackish manner, introduce
a bit (GIC_PRIO_IGNORE_PMR) for the PMR values that can represent
whether PSR.I is being used to disable interrupts, in which case it
takes precedence of the status of interrupt masking via PMR.
GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET is chosen such that (<pmr_value> |
GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET) does not mask more interrupts than <pmr_value> as
some sections (e.g. arch_cpu_idle(), interrupt acknowledge path)
requires PMR not to mask interrupts that could be signaled to the
CPU when using only PSR.I.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
