2008-10-16generic: sparse irqs: use irq_desc() together with dyn_array, instead of ↵Yinghai Lu
irq_desc[] add CONFIG_HAVE_SPARSE_IRQ to for use condensed array. Get rid of irq_desc[] array assumptions. Preallocate 32 irq_desc, and irq_desc() will try to get more. ( No change in functionality is expected anywhere, except the odd build failure where we missed a code site or where a crossing commit itroduces new irq_desc[] usage. ) v2: according to Eric, change get_irq_desc() to irq_desc() Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-16irq: introduce nr_irqsYinghai Lu
at this point nr_irqs is equal NR_IRQS convert a few easy users from NR_IRQS to dynamic nr_irqs. v2: according to Eric, we need to take care of arch without generic_hardirqs Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2007-08-12genirq: suppress resend of level interruptsThomas Gleixner
Level type interrupts are resent by the interrupt hardware when they are still active at irq_enable(). Suppress the resend mechanism for interrupts marked as level. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-08-09Revert "genirq: temporary fix for level-triggered IRQ resend"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 0fc4969b866671dfe39b1a9119d0fdc7ea0f63e5. It was always meant to be temporary, but it's generating more useless noise than anything else, and we probably should never have done it in the generic kernel (only had the people involved test it on their own).

2007-08-01genirq: temporary fix for level-triggered IRQ resendThomas Gleixner
Marcin Slusarz reported a ne2k-pci "hung network interface" regression. delayed disable relies on the ability to re-trigger the interrupt in the case that a real interrupt happens after the software disable was set. In this case we actually disable the interrupt on the hardware level _after_ it occurred. On enable_irq, we need to re-trigger the interrupt. On i386 this relies on a hardware resend mechanism (send_IPI_self()). Actually we only need the resend for edge type interrupts. Level type interrupts come back once enable_irq() re-enables the interrupt line. I assume that the interrupt in question is level triggered because it is shared and above the legacy irqs 0-15: 17: 12 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth1, eth0 Looking into the IO_APIC code, the resend via send_IPI_self() happens unconditionally. So the resend is done for level and edge interrupts. This makes the problem more mysterious. The code in question lib8390.c does disable_irq(); fiddle_with_the_network_card_hardware() enable_irq(); The fiddle_with_the_network_card_hardware() might cause interrupts, which are cleared in the same code path again, Marcin found that when he disables the irq line on the hardware level (removing the delayed disable) the card is kept alive. So the difference is that we can get a resend on enable_irq, when an interrupt happens during the time, where we are in the disabled region.
