      genirq: Provide forced interrupt threading · 8d32a307
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      Add a commandline parameter "threadirqs" which forces all interrupts except
      those marked IRQF_NO_THREAD to run threaded. That's mostly a debug option to
      allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If
      "threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no
      impact in the interrupt hotpath.
      
      Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after
      marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All
      interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked
      IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded.
      
      Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt
      handling into thread context.
      
      When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in
      interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately
      crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy.

      sched: Switch wait_task_inactive to schedule_hrtimeout() · 8eb90c30
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      When we force thread hard and soft interrupts the startup of ksoftirqd
      would hang in kthread_bind() when wait_task_inactive() calls
      schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() because there is no softirq yet
      which will wake us up.

      genirq: Add IRQF_NO_THREAD · 0c4602ff
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      Some low level interrupts cannot be threaded even when we force thread
      all interrupt handlers. Add a flag to annotate such interrupts. Add
      all timer interrupts to this category by default.

      genirq: Prepare the handling of shared oneshot interrupts · b5faba21
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      For level type interrupts we need to track how many threads are on
      flight to avoid useless interrupt storms when not all thread handlers
      have finished yet. Keep track of the woken threads and only unmask
      when there are no more threads in flight.
      
      Yes, I'm lazy and using a bitfield. But not only because I'm lazy, the
      main reason is that it's way simpler than using a refcount. A refcount
      based solution would need to keep track of various things like
      crashing the irq thread, spurious interrupts coming in,
      disables/enables, free_irq() and some more. The bitfield keeps the
      tracking simple and makes things just work. It's also nicely confined
      to the thread code pathes and does not require additional checks all
      over the place.

      genirq: Make warning in handle_percpu_event useful · 1204e956
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      The WARN_ON_ONCE in handle_percpu_event() which emits a warning when
      an action handler returns with interrupts enabled is not really
      useful. It does not reveal the interrupt number and handler function
      which caused it. Make it WARN_ONCE() and add the information.
