IPI driver for the Open Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller (ompic) as described in the Multi-core support section of the OpenRISC 1.2 architecture specification: https://github.com/openrisc/doc/raw/master/openrisc-arch-1.2-rev0.pdf Each OpenRISC core contains a full interrupt controller which is used in the SMP architecture for interrupt balancing. This IPI device, the ompic, is the only external device required for enabling SMP on OpenRISC. Pending ops are stored in a memory bit mask which can allow multiple pending operations to be set and serviced at a time. This is mostly borrowed from the alpha IPI implementation.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
