StoreEOI (the capability to EOI with a store) requires load-after-store
ordering in some cases to be reliable. P10 introduced a new offset for
load operations to enforce correct ordering and the XIVE driver has
the required support since kernel 5.8, commit b1f9be9392
("powerpc/xive: Enforce load-after-store ordering when StoreEOI is active")
Since skiboot v7, StoreEOI support is advertised on P10 with a new flag
on the PowerNV platform. See skiboot commit 4bd7d84afe46 ("xive/p10:
Introduce a new OPAL_XIVE_IRQ_STORE_EOI2 flag"). When detected,
activate the feature.

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.
