      sparseirq: work around __weak alias bug · b2e2fe99
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      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:

      locking, irq: enclose irq_desc_lock_class in CONFIG_LOCKDEP · 74c8a613
      KOSAKI Motohiro 提交于
      Impact: simplify code
      
      commit "08678b08: 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.

      x86, sparseirq: move irq_desc according to smp_affinity, v7 · 48a1b10a
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      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.

      sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes · 0b8f1efa
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      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.

      __do_IRQ does not check IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is set · c642b839
      Russ Anderson 提交于
      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.
