      [PATCH] genirq: do not mask interrupts by default · 76d21601
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Never mask interrupts immediately upon request.  Disabling interrupts in
      high-performance codepaths is rare, and on the other hand this change could
      recover lost edges (or even other types of lost interrupts) by conservatively
      only masking interrupts after they happen.  (NOTE: with this change the
      highlevel irq-disable code still soft-disables this IRQ line - and if such an
      interrupt happens then the IRQ flow handler keeps the IRQ masked.)
      
      Mark i8529A controllers as 'never loses an edge'.

      [PATCH] clockevents: i386 drivers · e9e2cdb4
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      Add clockevent drivers for i386: lapic (local) and PIT/HPET (global).  Update
      the timer IRQ to call into the PIT/HPET driver's event handler and the
      lapic-timer IRQ to call into the lapic clockevent driver.  The assignement of
      timer functionality is delegated to the core framework code and replaces the
      compile and runtime evalution in do_timer_interrupt_hook()
      
      Use the clockevents broadcast support and implement the lapic_broadcast
      function for ACPI.
      
      No changes to existing functionality.

      [PATCH] paravirt: header and stubs for paravirtualisation · d3561b7f
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      Create a paravirt.h header for all the critical operations which need to be
      replaced with hypervisor calls, and include that instead of defining native
      operations, when CONFIG_PARAVIRT.
      
      This patch does the dumbest possible replacement of paravirtualized
      instructions: calls through a "paravirt_ops" structure.  Currently these are
      function implementations of native hardware: hypervisors will override the ops
      structure with their own variants.
      
      All the pv-ops functions are declared "fastcall" so that a specific
      register-based ABI is used, to make inlining assember easier.
      
      And:
      
      +From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org>
      
      The paravirt ops introduce a 'weak' attribute onto memory_setup().
      Code ordering leads to the following warnings on x86:
      
          arch/i386/kernel/setup.c:651: warning: weak declaration of
                      `memory_setup' after first use results in unspecified behavior

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chip · d1bef4ed
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
      various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
      functionality.
      
      While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
      generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
      smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
      the new 'irq chip' abstraction.
      
      The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
      driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
      straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
      (level/edge/etc.) type of details.
      
      This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
      architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
      The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
      converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.
      
      As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
      (master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.
      
      The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
      and more consolidation between architectures.
      
      We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
      layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.
      
      This patch:
      
      rename desc->handler to desc->chip.
      
      Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch.  But having
      both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
      large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
      truly is.
      
      I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
      desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
      frequently.
      
      So lets get over with this quickly.  The conversion was done automatically
      via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.
      
      This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
      remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
      without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

      [PATCH] i386: move apic init in init_IRQs · f2b36db6
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      All kinds of ugliness exists because we don't initialize
      the apics during init_IRQs.
      - We calibrate jiffies in non apic mode even when we are using apics.
      - We have to have special code to initialize the apics when non-smp.
      - The legacy i8259 must exist and be setup correctly, even
        when we won't use it past initialization.
      - The kexec on panic code must restore the state of the io_apics.
      - init/main.c needs a special case for !smp smp_init on x86
      
      In addition to pure code movement I needed a couple
      of non-obvious changes:
      - Move setup_boot_APIC_clock into APIC_late_time_init for
        simplicity.
      - Use cpu_khz to generate a better approximation of loops_per_jiffies
        so I can verify the timer interrupt is working.
      - Call setup_apic_nmi_watchdog again after cpu_khz is initialized on
        the boot cpu.
