2009-01-27cpumask fallout: Initialize irq_default_affinity earlierDavid Daney
Move the initialization of irq_default_affinity to early_irq_init as core_initcall is too late. irq_default_affinity can be used in init_IRQ and potentially timer and SMP init as well. All of these happen before core_initcall. Moving the initialization to early_irq_init ensures that it is initialized before it is used.

2009-01-11kstat: modify kstat_irqs_legacy to be variable sizedMike Travis
Impact: reduce memory usage. Allocate kstat_irqs_legacy based on nr_cpu_ids to deal with this memory usage bump when NR_CPUS bumped from 128 to 4096: 8192 +253952 262144 +3100% kstat_irqs_legacy(.bss) This is only when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y. Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com>
2009-01-11irq: initialize nr_irqs based on nr_cpu_idsMike Travis
Impact: Reduce memory usage. This is the second half of the changes to make the irq_desc_ptrs be variable sized based on nr_cpu_ids. This is done by adding a new "max_nr_irqs" macro to irq_vectors.h (and a dummy in irqnr.h) to return a max NR_IRQS value based on NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids. This necessitated moving the define of MAX_IO_APICS to a separate file (asm/apicnum.h) so it could be included without the baggage of the other asm/apicdef.h declarations.

2009-01-11irq: allocate irq_desc_ptrs array based on nr_irqsMike Travis
Impact: allocate irq_desc_ptrs in preparation for making it variable-sized. This addresses this memory usage bump when NR_CPUS bumped from 128 to 4096: 34816 +229376 264192 +658% irq_desc_ptrs(.data.read_mostly) The patch is split into two parts, the first simply allocates the irq_desc_ptrs array. Then next will deal with making it variable. This is only when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y. Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com>

2009-01-11irq: change references from NR_IRQS to nr_irqsMike Travis
Impact: preparation, cleanup, add KERN_INFO printk Modify references from NR_IRQS to nr_irqs as the later will become variable-sized based on nr_cpu_ids when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y. Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com>
2009-01-11cpumask: fix bug in use cpumask_var_t in irq_descMike Travis
Impact: fix bug where new irq_desc uses old cpumask pointers which are freed. As Yinghai pointed out, init_copy_one_irq_desc() copies the old desc to the new desc overwriting the cpumask pointers. Since the old_desc and the cpumask pointers are freed, then memory corruption will occur if these old pointers are used. Move the allocation of these pointers to after the copy.

2009-01-11cpumask: update irq_desc to use cpumask_var_tMike Travis
Impact: reduce memory usage, use new cpumask API. Replace the affinity and pending_masks with cpumask_var_t's. This adds to the significant size reduction done with the SPARSE_IRQS changes. The added functions (init_alloc_desc_masks & init_copy_desc_masks) are in the include file so they can be inlined (and optimized out for the !CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK case.) [Naming chosen to be consistent with the other init*irq functions, as well as the backwards arg declaration of "from, to" instead of the more common "to, from" standard.] Includes a slight change to the declaration of struct irq_desc to embed the pending_mask within ifdef(CONFIG_SMP) to be consistent with other references, and some small changes to Xen.

2008-12-29sparseirq: work around __weak alias bugIngo Molnar
Impact: fix boot crash if the kernel is built with certain GCC versions GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override the weak alias with the real thing. This can lead to the boot crash reported by Kamalesh Babulal: ACPI: Core revision 20080926 Setting APIC routing to flat BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 IP: [<ffffffff8021f9a8>] add_pin_to_irq_cpu+0x14/0x74 PGD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [...] So move the arch_init_chip_data() function from handle.c to manage.c.

2008-12-27sparseirq: set lock_class for legacy irq when sparse_irq is selectedYinghai Lu

2008-12-27sparseirq: work around compiler optimizing away __weak functionsYinghai Lu

2008-12-27sparseirq: fix desc->lock initIngo Molnar
Impact: cleanup init_one_irq_desc() does not initialize the desc->lock properly - you cannot init a lock by memcpying some other lock on it. This happens to work right now (because irq_desc_init is never in use), but it's a dangerous construct nevertheless, so fix it. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-12-26irq: for_each_irq_desc() move to irqnr.hKOSAKI Motohiro
Impact: cleanup before CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ age, for_each_irq_desc() sat in irqnr.h and could be called from generic code. CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ breaks this assumption, but SPARSE_IRQ version for_each_irq_desc() also can move into irqnr.h easily. Also, this patch unifies CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ and !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ for_each_irq_desc(). Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-12-18locking, irq: enclose irq_desc_lock_class in CONFIG_LOCKDEPKOSAKI Motohiro
Impact: simplify code commit "08678b0: generic: sparse irqs: use irq_desc() [...]" introduced the irq_desc_lock_class variable. But it is used only if CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y or CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=Y. Otherwise, following warnings happen: CC kernel/irq/handle.o kernel/irq/handle.c:26: warning: 'irq_desc_lock_class' defined but not used Actually, current early_init_irq_lock_class has a bit strange and messy ifdef. In addition, it is not valueable. 1. this function is protected by !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ, but that is not necessary. if CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y, desc of all irq number are initialized by NULL at first - then this function calling is safe. 2. this function protected by CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS too. but it is not necessary either, because lockdep_set_class() doesn't have bad side effect even if CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=n. This patch bloat kernel size a bit on CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=n and CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=Y - but that's ok. early_init_irq_lock_class() is not a fastpatch at all. To avoid messy ifdefs is more important than a few bytes diet. Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-12-17x86, sparseirq: move irq_desc according to smp_affinity, v7Yinghai Lu
Impact: improve NUMA handling by migrating irq_desc on smp_affinity changes if CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC is set: - make irq_desc to go with affinity aka irq_desc moving etc - call move_irq_desc in irq_complete_move() - legacy irq_desc is not moved, because they are allocated via static array for logical apic mode, need to add move_desc_in_progress_in_same_domain, otherwise it will not be moved ==> also could need two phases to get irq_desc moved.

2008-12-08sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changesYinghai Lu
Impact: new feature Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case. To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of irq_desc pointers. When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc, this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls request_irq()). This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

2007-11-14__do_IRQ does not check IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is setRuss Anderson
In __do_IRQ(), the normal case is that IRQ_DISABLED is checked and if set the handler (handle_IRQ_event()) is not called. Earlier in __do_IRQ(), if IRQ_PER_CPU is set the code does not check IRQ_DISABLED and calls the handler even though IRQ_DISABLED is set. This behavior seems unintentional. One user encountering this behavior is the CPE handler (in arch/ia64/kernel/mca.c). When the CPE handler encounters too many CPEs (such as a solid single bit error), it sets up a polling timer and disables the CPE interrupt (to avoid excessive overhead logging the stream of single bit errors). disable_irq_nosync() is called which sets IRQ_DISABLED. The IRQ_PER_CPU flag was previously set (in ia64_mca_late_init()). The net result is the CPE handler gets called even though it is marked disabled. If the behavior of not checking IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is set is intentional, it would be worthy of a comment describing the intended behavior. disable_irq_nosync() does call chip->disable() to provide a chipset specifiec interface for disabling the interrupt, which avoids this issue when used.

2007-05-08Add IRQF_IRQPOLL flag (common code)Bernhard Walle
irqpoll is broken on some architectures that don't use the IRQ 0 for the timer interrupt like IA64. This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag. Each architecture is handled in a separate pach. As I left the irq == 0 as condition, this should not break existing architectures that use timer_irq == 0 and that I did't address with that patch (because I don't know). This patch: This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag that the interrupt registration code could use for the interrupt it wants to use for IRQ polling. Because this must not be the timer interrupt, an additional flag was added instead of re-using the IRQF_TIMER constant. Until all architectures will have an IRQF_IRQPOLL interrupt, irq == 0 will stay as alternative as it should not break anything. Also, note_interrupt() is called on CPU-specific interrupts to be used as interrupt source for IRQ polling.

2007-05-08Pad irq_desc to internode cacheline sizeRavikiran G Thirumalai
We noticed a drop in n/w performance due to the irq_desc being cacheline aligned rather than internode aligned. We see 50% of expected performance when two e1000 nics local to two different nodes have consecutive irq descriptors allocated, due to false sharing. Note that this patch does away with cacheline padding for the UP case, as it does not seem useful for UP configurations.
