      Cleanup: remove irq_descp() - explicit use of irq_desc[] is shorter and more

      [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.

      [IA64] assign_irq_vector() should not panic · 3b5cc090
      Kenji Kaneshige 提交于
      Current assign_irq_vector() will panic if interrupt vectors is running
      out. But I think how to handle the case of lack of interrupt vectors
      should be handled by the caller of this function. For example, some
      PCI devices can raise the interrupt signal via both MSI and I/O
      APIC. So even if the driver for these device fails to allocate a
      vector for MSI, the driver still has a chance to use I/O APIC based
      interrupt. But currently there is no chance for these driver to use
      I/O APIC based interrupt because kernel will panic when
      assign_irq_vector() fails to allocate interrupt vector.
      
      The following patch changes assign_irq_vector() for ia64 to return
      -ENOSPC on error instead of panic (as i386 and x86_64 versions do).

      [IA64] vector sharing (Large I/O system support) · 24eeb568
      Kenji Kaneshige 提交于
      Current ia64 linux cannot handle greater than 184 interrupt sources
      because of the lack of vectors. The following patch enables ia64 linux
      to handle greater than 184 interrupt sources by allowing the same
      vector number to be shared by multiple IOSAPIC's RTEs. The design of
      this patch is besed on "Intel(R) Itanium(R) Processor Family Interrupt
      Architecture Guide".
      
      Even if you don't have a large I/O system, you can see the behavior of
      vector sharing by changing IOSAPIC_LAST_DEVICE_VECTOR to fewer value.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
