      [PATCH] powerpc: fix trigger handling in the new irq code · 6e99e458
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch slightly reworks the new irq code to fix a small design error.  I
      removed the passing of the trigger to the map() calls entirely, it was not a
      good idea to have one call do two different things.  It also fixes a couple of
      corner cases.
      
      Mapping a linux virtual irq to a physical irq now does only that.  Setting the
      trigger is a different action which has a different call.
      
      The main changes are:
      
      - I no longer call host->ops->map() for an already mapped irq, I just return
        the virtual number that was already mapped.  It was called before to give an
        opportunity to change the trigger, but that was causing issues as that could
        happen while the interrupt was in use by a device, and because of the
        trigger change, map would potentially muck around with things in a racy way.
         That was causing much burden on a given's controller implementation of
        map() to get it right.  This is much simpler now.  map() is only called on
        the initial mapping of an irq, meaning that you know that this irq is _not_
        being used.  You can initialize the hardware if you want (though you don't
        have to).
      
      - Controllers that can handle different type of triggers (level/edge/etc...)
        now implement the standard irq_chip->set_type() call as defined by the
        generic code.  That means that you can use the standard set_irq_type() to
        configure an irq line manually if you wish or (though I don't like that
        interface), pass explicit trigger flags to request_irq() as defined by the
        generic kernel interfaces.  Also, using those interfaces guarantees that
        your controller set_type callback is called with the descriptor lock held,
        thus providing locking against activity on the same interrupt (including
        mask/unmask/etc...) automatically.  A result is that, for example, MPIC's
        own map() implementation calls irq_set_type(NONE) to configure the hardware
        to the default triggers.
      
      - To allow the above, the irq_map array entry for the new mapped interrupt
        is now set before map() callback is called for the controller.
      
      - The irq_create_of_mapping() (also used by irq_of_parse_and_map()) function
        for mapping interrupts from the device-tree now also call the separate
        set_irq_type(), and only does so if there is a change in the trigger type.
      
      - While I was at it, I changed pci_read_irq_line() (which is the helper I
        would expect most archs to use in their pcibios_fixup() to get the PCI
        interrupt routing from the device tree) to also handle a fallback when the
        DT mapping fails consisting of reading the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN to know wether
        the device has an interrupt at all, and the the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to get an
        interrupt number from the device.  That number is then mapped using the
        default controller, and the trigger is set to level low.  That default
        behaviour works for several platforms that don't have a proper interrupt
        tree like Pegasos.  If it doesn't work for your platform, then either
        provide a proper interrupt tree from the firmware so that fallback isn't
        needed, or don't call pci_read_irq_line()
      
      - Add back a bit that got dropped by my main rework patch for properly
        clearing pending IPIs on pSeries when using a kexec

      [POWERPC] Add new interrupt mapping core and change platforms to use it · 0ebfff14
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This adds the new irq remapper core and removes the old one.  Because
      there are some fundamental conflicts with the old code, like the value
      of NO_IRQ which I'm now setting to 0 (as per discussions with Linus),
      etc..., this commit also changes the relevant platform and driver code
      over to use the new remapper (so as not to cause difficulties later
      in bisecting).
      
      This patch removes the old pre-parsing of the open firmware interrupt
      tree along with all the bogus assumptions it made to try to renumber
      interrupts according to the platform. This is all to be handled by the
      new code now.
      
      For the pSeries XICS interrupt controller, a single remapper host is
      created for the whole machine regardless of how many interrupt
      presentation and source controllers are found, and it's set to match
      any device node that isn't a 8259.  That works fine on pSeries and
      avoids having to deal with some of the complexities of split source
      controllers vs. presentation controllers in the pSeries device trees.
      
      The powerpc i8259 PIC driver now always requests the legacy interrupt
      range. It also has the feature of being able to match any device node
      (including NULL) if passed no device node as an input. That will help
      porting over platforms with broken device-trees like Pegasos who don't
      have a proper interrupt tree.

      [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.
