2009-02-26tracing, genirq: add irq enter and exit trace eventsJason Baron
Impact: add new tracepoints Add them to the generic IRQ code, that way every architecture gets these new tracepoints, not just x86. Using Steve's new 'TRACE_FORMAT', I can get function graph trace as follows using the original two IRQ tracepoints: 3) | handle_IRQ_event() { 3) | /* (irq_handler_entry) irq=28 handler=eth0 */ 3) | e1000_intr_msi() { 3) 2.460 us | __napi_schedule(); 3) 9.416 us | } 3) | /* (irq_handler_exit) irq=28 handler=eth0 return=handled */ 3) + 22.935 us | } Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <compudj@krystal.dyndns.org> Cc: "Frank Ch.

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

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.

2009-01-07async: Asynchronous function calls to speed up kernel bootArjan van de Ven
Right now, most of the kernel boot is strictly synchronous, such that various hardware delays are done sequentially. In order to make the kernel boot faster, this patch introduces infrastructure to allow doing some of the initialization steps asynchronously, which will hide significant portions of the hardware delays in practice. In order to not change device order and other similar observables, this patch does NOT do full parallel initialization. Rather, it operates more in the way an out of order CPU does; the work may be done out of order and asynchronous, but the observable effects (instruction retiring for the CPU) are still done in the original sequence.

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>

2008-12-08sparse 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.

2008-12-02genirq: warn when IRQF_DISABLED may be ignoredDavid Brownell
Impact: emit new warning We periodically waste time tracking down problems from the genirq framework not respecting IRQF_DISABLED for some shared IRQ cases. Linus views this as "will not fix", but we're still left with the bugs caused by this misbehavior. This patch adds a nag message in request_irq(), so that drivers can fix their IRQ handlers to avoid this problem. Note that developers will never see the relevant bugs when they run with LOCKDEP, so it's no wonder these bugs are hard to find. (That also means LOCKDEP is overlooking some IRQ-related bugs involving IRQ handlers that don't set IRQF_DISABLED...)
