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:

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.

irq: only update affinity if ->set_affinity() is sucessfull

2009-04-28T10:21:16Z

irq_set_affinity() and move_masked_irq() try to assign affinity before calling chip set_affinity(). Some archs are assigning it in ->set_affinity() again. We do something like: cpumask_cpy(desc->affinity, mask); desc->chip->set_affinity(mask); But in the failure path, affinity should not be touched - otherwise we'll end up with a different affinity mask despite the failure to migrate the IRQ. So try to update the afffinity only if set_affinity returns with 0. Also call irq_set_thread_affinity accordingly. v2: update after "irq, x86: Remove IRQ_DISABLED check in process context IRQ move" v3: according to Ingo, change set_affinity() in irq_chip should return int. v4: update comments by removing moving irq_desc code.

PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interrupts

2009-03-30T19:46:54Z

Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU) during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive interrupts again during the subsequent resume. These functions make it possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and "early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being executed. In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and "early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc. The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume. Namely, interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

irq: clear kstat_irqs

2009-02-09T07:55:08Z

Impact: get correct kstat_irqs [/proc/interrupts] for msi/msi-x etc need to call clear_kstat_irqs(), so when we reuse that irq_desc, we get correct kstat in /proc/interrupts. This makes /proc/interrupts not have entries. Don't need to worry about arch that doesn't support genirq, because they will not call dynamic_irq_cleanup(). v2: simplify and make clear_kstat_irqs more robust Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

irq: allocate irq_desc_ptrs array based on nr_irqs

2009-01-11T18:13:35Z

Impact: allocate irq_desc_ptrs in preparation for making it variable-sized. This addresses this memory usage bump when NR_CPUS bumped from 128 to 4096: 34816 +229376 264192 +658% irq_desc_ptrs(.data.read_mostly) The patch is split into two parts, the first simply allocates the irq_desc_ptrs array. Then next will deal with making it variable. This is only when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y. Signed-off-by: Mike Travis

x86, sparseirq: move irq_desc according to smp_affinity, v7

2008-12-16T23:14:01Z

Impact: improve NUMA handling by migrating irq_desc on smp_affinity changes if CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC is set: - make irq_desc to go with affinity aka irq_desc moving etc - call move_irq_desc in irq_complete_move() - legacy irq_desc is not moved, because they are allocated via static array for logical apic mode, need to add move_desc_in_progress_in_same_domain, otherwise it will not be moved ==> also could need two phases to get irq_desc moved.

genirq: keep affinities set from userspace across free/request_irq()

2008-11-09T21:23:49Z

Impact: preserve user-modified affinities on interrupts Kumar Galak noticed that commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 (genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)) overrides an already set affinity setting across a free / request_irq(). Happens e.g. with ifdown/ifup of a network device. Change the logic to mark the affinities as set and keep them intact. This also fixes the unlocked access to irq_desc in irq_select_affinity() when called from irq_affinity_proc_write() Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

irq: replace loop with nr_irqs with for_each_irq_desc

2008-10-16T14:52:33Z

There are a handful of loops that go from 0 to nr_irqs and use get_irq_desc() on them. These would allocate all the irq_desc entries, regardless of the need for them. Use the smarter for_each_irq_desc() iterator that will only iterate over the present ones. v2: make sure arch without GENERIC_HARDIRQS work too Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar
