softirq: introduce tasklet_hrtimer infrastructure

2009-07-22T15:01:17Z

commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption that the callback happens in softirq context. Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

genirq: Delegate irq affinity setting to the irq thread

2009-07-21T12:35:07Z

irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required by set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems nicely. Add kerneldoc to irq_set_thread_affinity() while at it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner LKML-Reference:

tasklets: new tasklet scheduling function

2009-06-13T08:02:24Z

Rationale: kmemcheck needs to be able to schedule a tasklet without touching any dynamically allocated memory _at_ _all_ (since that would lead to a recursive page fault). This tasklet is used for writing the error reports to the kernel log. The new scheduling function avoids touching any other tasklets by inserting the new tasklist as the head of the "tasklet_hi" list instead of on the tail. Also don't wake up the softirq thread lest the scheduler access some tracked memory and we go down with a recursive page fault. In this case, we'd better just wait for the maximum time of 1/HZ for the message to appear. Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum

PM: Add empty suspend/resume device irq functions

2009-06-12T19:32:33Z

git commit 0a0c5168 "PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interrupts" introduced some helper functions. However these functions are only available for architectures which support GENERIC_HARDIRQS. Other architectures will see this build error: drivers/built-in.o: In function `sysdev_suspend': (.text+0x15138): undefined reference to `check_wakeup_irqs' drivers/built-in.o: In function `device_power_up': (.text+0x1cb66): undefined reference to `resume_device_irqs' drivers/built-in.o: In function `device_power_down': (.text+0x1cb92): undefined reference to `suspend_device_irqs' To fix this add some empty inline functions for !GENERIC_HARDIRQS.

x86/irq: change irq_desc_alloc() to take node instead of cpu

2009-04-28T10:21:17Z

This simplifies the node awareness of the code. All our allocators only deal with a NUMA node ID locality not with CPU ids anyway - so there's no need to maintain (and transform) a CPU id all across the IRq layer. v2: keep move_irq_desc related [ Impact: cleanup, prepare IRQ code to be NUMA-aware ] Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Suresh Siddha Cc: "Eric W.
