2009-03-13genirq: deprecate __do_IRQThomas Gleixner
Two years migration time is enough. Remove the compability cruft. Add the deprecated warning in kernel/irq/handle.c because marking __do_IRQ itself is way too noisy. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2009-03-03genirq: assert that irq handlers are indeed running in hardirq contextPeter Zijlstra
Make sure the genirq layer handlers are indeed running handlers in hardirq context. That is the genirq expectation and doing anything else is broken.

2009-02-09irq: optimize init_kstat_irqs/init_copy_kstat_irqsYinghai Lu

2009-02-09irq: clear kstat_irqsYinghai Lu
Impact: get correct kstat_irqs [/proc/interrupts] for msi/msi-x etc need to call clear_kstat_irqs(), so when we reuse that irq_desc, we get correct kstat in /proc/interrupts. This makes /proc/interrupts not have <NULL> entries. Don't need to worry about arch that doesn't support genirq, because they will not call dynamic_irq_cleanup(). v2: simplify and make clear_kstat_irqs more robust Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
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.

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
Impact: add lockdep annotation to legacy IRQ descs Warnings resulting out of this were not seen in practice, but it's prudent to initialize the legacy descriptors to the lock class as well, symmetric to how we do it with other descriptors.

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>

2008-12-26proc: remove ifdef CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ from stat.cKOSAKI Motohiro

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.

2006-11-22Don't call "note_interrupt()" with irq descriptor lock heldLinus Torvalds
This reverts commit f72fa707604c015a6625e80f269506032d5430dc, and solves the problem that it tried to fix by simply making "__do_IRQ()" call the note_interrupt() function without the lock held, the way everybody else does. It should be noted that all interrupt handling code must never allow the descriptor actors to be entered "recursively" (that's why we do all the magic IRQ_PENDING stuff in the first place), so there actually is exclusion at that much higher level, even in the absense of locking.

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.
