Hi Mark:
I have some question related to gicv3 driver on 1 of N distribution
model.
Looking at the linux kernel implementation the interrupt is always
affined to the first online cpu and does not use the 1 of N distribution
model.
As per the Gic spec 1 of N model could help to achieve low latency as
handling the interrupts as there are more PE's participating in handling
the interrupt.
Is there a reason the Linux kernel driver does not implement the 1 of N
model?
Thanks,
Channa
