       <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
      
      The root cause is that some irq_chip variables, especially ia64_msi_chip,
      initiate their memeber end to point to NULL. __do_IRQ doesn't check
      if irq_chip->end is null and just calls it after processing the interrupt.
      
      As irq_chip->end is called at many places, so I fix it by reinitiating
      irq_chip->end to dummy_irq_chip.end, e.g., a noop function.

      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] msi: simplify msi sanity checks by adding with generic irq code · 1f80025e
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Currently msi.c is doing sanity checks that make certain before an irq is
      destroyed it has no more users.
      
      By adding irq_has_action I can perform the test is a generic way, instead of
      relying on a msi specific data structure.
      
      By performing the core check in dynamic_irq_cleanup I ensure every user of
      dynamic irqs has a test present and we don't free resources that are in use.
      
      In msi.c this allows me to kill the attrib.state member of msi_desc and all of
      the assciated code to maintain it.
      
      To keep from freeing data structures when irq cleanup code is called to soon
      changing dyanamic_irq_cleanup is insufficient because there are msi specific
      data structures that are also not safe to free.

      [PATCH] genirq: irq: add a dynamic irq creation API · 3a16d713
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      With the msi support comes a new concept in irq handling, irqs that are
      created dynamically at run time.
      
      Currently the msi code allocates irqs backwards.  First it allocates a
      platform dependent routing value for an interrupt the ``vector'' and then it
      figures out from the vector which irq you are on.
      
      This msi backwards allocator suffers from two basic problems.  The allocator
      suffers because it is trying to do something that is architecture specific in
      a generic way making it brittle, inflexible, and tied to tightly to the
      architecture implementation.  The alloctor also suffers from it's very
      backwards nature as it has tied things together that should have no
      dependencies.
      
      To solve the basic dynamic irq allocation problem two new architecture
      specific functions are added: create_irq and destroy_irq.
      
      create_irq takes no input and returns an unused irq number, that won't be
      reused until it is returned to the free poll with destroy_irq.  The irq then
      can be used for any purpose although the only initial consumer is the msi
      code.
      
      destroy_irq takes an irq number allocated with create_irq and returns it to
      the free pool.
      
      Making this functionality per architecture increases the simplicity of the irq
      allocation code and increases it's flexibility.
      
      dynamic_irq_init() and dynamic_irq_cleanup() are added to automate the
      irq_desc initializtion that should happen for dynamic irqs.

      [PATCH] genirq core: fix handle_level_irq() · 86998aa6
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      while porting the -rt tree to 2.6.18-rc7 i noticed the following
      screaming-IRQ scenario on an SMP system:
      
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.001ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.010ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.020ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.029ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.039ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.048ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.058ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.068ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.077ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.087ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
       2274  0Dn.:1 0.097ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103  <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf)
      
      as it turns out, the bug is caused by handle_level_irq(), which if it
      races with another CPU already handling this IRQ, it _unmasks_ the IRQ
      line on the way out. This is not how 2.6.17 works, and we introduced
      this bug in one of the early genirq cleanups right before it went into
      -mm. (the bug was not in the genirq patchset for a long time, and we
      didnt notice the bug due to the lack of -rt rebase to the new genirq
      code. -rt, and hardirq-preemption in particular opens up such races much
      wider than anything else.)
