[PATCH v5] irqchip/gic-v3: Add Altera SoCFPGA Agilex5 GIC600 DMA32 erratum workaround

Mon Sep 7 01:22:59 PDT 2026


Agilex5 integrates GIC600 with an ACE-lite interface limited to a 32-bit
address bus, so the ITS can only access the first 4 GB of physical address
space. Register intel,socfpga-agilex5 on the existing
dma_32bit_impaired_platforms list so ITS allocations use GFP_DMA32.

The workaround is guarded by ALTERA_ERRATUM_AGILEX5_2_1_23, which is
selected by ARCH_INTEL_SOCFPGA as all Agilex5 devices are affected.

This limitation is documented as Agilex 5 ES Device Errata 2.1.23 (825514).

Changes in v5:
- Rename the Kconfig symbol to ALTERA_ERRATUM_AGILEX5_2_1_23 so it names the
  specific erratum instead of the whole SoC
- Move it next to the other GIC errata entries in arch/arm64/Kconfig
- Make it a hidden symbol selected by ARCH_INTEL_SOCFPGA instead of a user
  choice

Changes in v4:
- Rebase onto dma_32bit_impaired_platforms shared quirk (post Renesas)
- Add ALTERA_ERRATUM_AGILEX5 Kconfig and silicon-errata entry
- Cite Agilex 5 ES Device Errata 2.1.23

Changes in v3:
- Extend existing Rockchip dma32 quirk path for Agilex5

Changes in v2:
- Drop DT binding quirk; use IIDR + of_machine_is_compatible()
