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.

Impact: change existing irq_chip API
Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.
Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.
Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly. Ingo, does this break anything?

Impact: new feature
Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.
To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.
When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).
This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

If the member 'name' of the irq_desc structure happens to point to a
character string that is resident within a kernel module, problems ensue
if that module is rmmod'd (at which time dynamic_irq_cleanup() is called)
and then later show_interrupts() is called by someone.
It is also not a good thing if the character string resided in kmalloc'd
space that has been kfree'd (after having called dynamic_irq_cleanup()).
dynamic_irq_cleanup() fails to NULL the 'name' member and
show_interrupts() references it on a few architectures (like h8300, sh and
x86).

Genirq hasn't previously recorded the trigger type used by any given IRQ,
although some irq_chip support has done so. That data can be useful when
troubleshooting. This patch records it in the relevant irq_desc.status
bits, and improves consistency between the two driver-visible calls
affected:
- Make set_irq_type() usage match request_irq() usage:
* IRQ_TYPE_NONE should be a NOP; succeed, so irq_chip methods
won't have to handle that case any more (many do it wrong).
* IRQ_TYPE_PROBE is ignored; any buggy out-of-tree callers
might need to switch over to the real IRQ probing code.
* emit the same diagnostics (from shared utility code)
- Their kerneldoc now reflects usage:
* request_irq() flags include IRQF_TRIGGER_* to specify
active edge(s)/level ... docs previously omitted that
* set_irq_type() is declared in <linux/irq.h> so callers
should use the (bit-equivalent) IRQ_TYPE_* symbols there
Also: adds a warning about shared IRQs that don't end up using the
requested trigger mode; and fix an unrelated "sparse" warning.

This patch clarifies usage of irq_chip->startup() callback:
1. The "if (startup) startup(); else enabled();" code in setup_irq()
is unnecessary, as startup() falls back to enabled() via
default callbacks, set by irq_chip_set_defaults().
2. When using set_irq_chained_handler() the startup() was never called,
which is not good at all... Fixed. And again - when startup() is not
defined the call will fall back to enable() than to unmask() via
default callbacks.

The default_disable() function was changed in commit:
76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21
genirq: do not mask interrupts by default
It removed the mask function in favour of the default delayed
interrupt disabling. Unfortunately this also broke the shutdown in
free_irq() when the last handler is removed from the interrupt for
those architectures which rely on the default implementations. Now we
can end up with a enabled interrupt line after the last handler was
removed, which can result in spurious interrupts.
Fix this by adding a default_shutdown function, which is only
installed, when the irqchip implementation does provide neither a
shutdown nor a disable function.

Probing non-ISA interrupts using the handle_percpu_irq as their handle_irq
method may crash the system because handle_percpu_irq does not check
IRQ_WAITING. This for example hits the MIPS Qemu configuration.
This patch provides two helper functions set_irq_noprobe and set_irq_probe to
set rsp. clear the IRQ_NOPROBE flag. The only current caller is MIPS code
but this really belongs into generic code.
As an aside, interrupt probing these days has become a mostly obsolete if not
dangerous art. I think Linux interrupts should be changed to default to
non-probing but that's subject of this patch.

In commit 76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21 lazy irq disabling
was implemented, and the simple irq handler had a masking set to it.
Remy Bohmer discovered that some devices in the ARM architecture
would trigger the mask, but never unmask it. His patch to do the
unmasking was questioned by Russell King about masking simple irqs
to begin with. Looking further, it was discovered that the problems
Remy was seeing was due to improper use of the simple handler by
devices, and he later submitted patches to fix those. But the issue
that was uncovered was that the simple handler should never mask.
This patch reverts the masking in the simple handler.

Compiling handle_percpu_irq only on uniprocessor generates an artificial
special case so a typical use like:
set_irq_chip_and_handler(irq, &some_irq_type, handle_percpu_irq);
needs to be conditionally compiled only on SMP systems as well and an
alternative UP construct is usually needed - for no good reason.
This fixes uniprocessor configurations for some MIPS SMP systems.

set_irq_msi() currently connects an irq_desc to an msi_desc. The archs call
it at some point in their setup routine, and then the generic code sets up the
reverse mapping from the msi_desc back to the irq.
set_irq_msi() should do both connections, making it the one and only call
required to connect an irq with it's MSI desc and vice versa.
The arch code MUST call set_irq_msi(), and it must do so only once it's sure
it's not going to fail the irq allocation.
Given that there's no need for the arch to return the irq anymore, the return
value from the arch setup routine just becomes 0 for success and anything else
for failure.

Never mask interrupts immediately upon request. Disabling interrupts in
high-performance codepaths is rare, and on the other hand this change could
recover lost edges (or even other types of lost interrupts) by conservatively
only masking interrupts after they happen. (NOTE: with this change the
highlevel irq-disable code still soft-disables this IRQ line - and if such an
interrupt happens then the IRQ flow handler keeps the IRQ masked.)
Mark i8529A controllers as 'never loses an edge'.

We need to be able to get from an irq number to a struct msi_desc.
The msi_desc array in msi.c had several short comings the big one was
that it could not be used outside of msi.c. Using irq_data in struct
irq_desc almost worked except on some architectures irq_data needs to
be used for something else.
So this patch adds a msi_desc pointer to irq_desc, adds the appropriate
wrappers and changes all of the msi code to use them.
The dynamic_irq_init/cleanup code was tweaked to ensure the new
field is left in a well defined state.

<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.

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.

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.

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.

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.)

Patch from Thomas Gleixner
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
ARM has a couple of really dumb interrupt controllers.
Implement a generic one and fixup the ARM migration. ARM reused
the no_irq_chip for this purpose, but this does not work out
for platforms which are not converted to the new interrupt
type handling model.

Clean up the fastack concept by turning it into fasteoi and introducing the
->eoi() method for chips.
This also allows the cleanup of an i386 EOI quirk - now the quirk is
cleanly separated from the pure ACK implementation.
