2009-08-17genirq: Add buslock supportThomas Gleixner
Some interrupt chips are connected to a "slow" bus (i2c, spi ...). The bus access needs to sleep and therefor cannot be called in atomic contexts. Some of the generic interrupt management functions like disable_irq(), enable_irq() ... call interrupt chip functions with the irq_desc->lock held and interrupts disabled. This does not work for such devices. Provide a separate synchronization mechanism for such interrupt chips. The irq_chip structure is extended by two optional functions (bus_lock and bus_sync_and_unlock). The idea is to serialize the bus access for those operations in the core code so that drivers which are behind that bus operated interrupt controller do not have to worry about it and just can use the normal interfaces. To achieve this we add two function pointers to the irq_chip: bus_lock and bus_sync_unlock. bus_lock() is called to serialize access to the interrupt controller bus. Now the core code can issue chip->mask/unmask ... commands without changing the fast path code at all. The chip implementation merily stores that information in a chip private data structure and returns. No bus interaction as these functions are called from atomic context. After that bus_sync_unlock() is called outside the atomic context. Now the chip implementation issues the bus commands, waits for completion and unlocks the interrupt controller bus. The irq_chip implementation as pseudo code: struct irq_chip_data { struct mutex mutex; unsigned int irq_offset; unsigned long mask; unsigned long mask_status; } static void bus_lock(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); mutex_lock(&data->mutex); } static void mask(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); irq -= data->irq_offset; data->mask |= (1 << irq); } static void unmask(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); irq -= data->irq_offset; data->mask &= ~(1 << irq); } static void bus_sync_unlock(unsigned int irq) { struct irq_chip_data *data = get_irq_desc_chip_data(irq); if (data->mask != data->mask_status) { do_bus_magic_to_set_mask(data->mask); data->mask_status = data->mask; } mutex_unlock(&data->mutex); } The device drivers can use request_threaded_irq, free_irq, disable_irq and enable_irq as usual with the only restriction that the calls need to come from non atomic context.

2009-07-21genirq: Delegate irq affinity setting to the irq threadThomas Gleixner
irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required by set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems nicely. Add kerneldoc to irq_set_thread_affinity() while at it.

2009-04-28x86/irq: change irq_desc_alloc() to take node instead of cpuYinghai Lu
This simplifies the node awareness of the code. All our allocators only deal with a NUMA node ID locality not with CPU ids anyway - so there's no need to maintain (and transform) a CPU id all across the IRq layer. v2: keep move_irq_desc related [ Impact: cleanup, prepare IRQ code to be NUMA-aware ] Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: "Eric W.

2009-04-28irq: only update affinity if ->set_affinity() is sucessfullYinghai Lu
irq_set_affinity() and move_masked_irq() try to assign affinity before calling chip set_affinity(). Some archs are assigning it in ->set_affinity() again. We do something like: cpumask_cpy(desc->affinity, mask); desc->chip->set_affinity(mask); But in the failure path, affinity should not be touched - otherwise we'll end up with a different affinity mask despite the failure to migrate the IRQ. So try to update the afffinity only if set_affinity returns with 0. Also call irq_set_thread_affinity accordingly. v2: update after "irq, x86: Remove IRQ_DISABLED check in process context IRQ move" v3: according to Ingo, change set_affinity() in irq_chip should return int. v4: update comments by removing moving irq_desc code.

2009-03-30PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interruptsRafael J. Wysocki
Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU) during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive interrupts again during the subsequent resume. These functions make it possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and "early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being executed. In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and "early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc. The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume. Namely, interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

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>
2009-01-11irq: 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>
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.

2008-11-09genirq: keep affinities set from userspace across free/request_irq()Thomas Gleixner
Impact: preserve user-modified affinities on interrupts Kumar Galak noticed that commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 (genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)) overrides an already set affinity setting across a free / request_irq(). Happens e.g. with ifdown/ifup of a network device. Change the logic to mark the affinities as set and keep them intact. This also fixes the unlocked access to irq_desc in irq_select_affinity() when called from irq_affinity_proc_write() Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-16irq: replace loop with nr_irqs with for_each_irq_descYinghai Lu
There are a handful of loops that go from 0 to nr_irqs and use get_irq_desc() on them. These would allocate all the irq_desc entries, regardless of the need for them. Use the smarter for_each_irq_desc() iterator that will only iterate over the present ones. v2: make sure arch without GENERIC_HARDIRQS work too Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-02genirq: record trigger typeDavid Brownell
Genirq hasn't previously recorded the trigger type used by any given IRQ, although some irq_chip support has done so. That data can be useful when troubleshooting. This patch records it in the relevant irq_desc.status bits, and improves consistency between the two driver-visible calls affected: - Make set_irq_type() usage match request_irq() usage: * IRQ_TYPE_NONE should be a NOP; succeed, so irq_chip methods won't have to handle that case any more (many do it wrong). * IRQ_TYPE_PROBE is ignored; any buggy out-of-tree callers might need to switch over to the real IRQ probing code. * emit the same diagnostics (from shared utility code) - Their kerneldoc now reflects usage: * request_irq() flags include IRQF_TRIGGER_* to specify active edge(s)/level ... docs previously omitted that * set_irq_type() is declared in <linux/irq.h> so callers should use the (bit-equivalent) IRQ_TYPE_* symbols there Also: adds a warning about shared IRQs that don't end up using the requested trigger mode; and fix an unrelated "sparse" warning.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
