The GIC architecture specification defines a set of registers for redistributors and ITSes that control the sharebility and cacheability attributes of redistributors/ITSes initiator ports on the interconnect (GICR_[V]PROPBASER, GICR_[V]PENDBASER, GITS_BASER<n>). Architecturally the GIC provides a means to drive shareability and cacheability attributes signals and related IWB/OWB/ISH barriers but it is not mandatory for designs to wire up the corresponding interconnect signals that control the cacheability/shareability of transactions. Redistributors and ITSes interconnect ports can be connected to non-coherent interconnects that are not able to manage the shareability/cacheability attributes; this implicitly makes the redistributors and ITSes non-coherent observers. So far, the GIC driver on probe executes a write to "probe" for the redistributors and ITSes registers shareability bitfields by writing a value (ie InnerShareable - the sh...
