2011-07-28irq: add irq_domain translation infrastructureGrant Likely
This patch adds irq_domain infrastructure for translating from hardware irq numbers to linux irqs. This is particularly important for architectures adding device tree support because the current implementation (excluding PowerPC and SPARC) cannot handle translation for more than a single interrupt controller. irq_domain supports device tree translation for any number of interrupt controllers. This patch converts x86, Microblaze, ARM and MIPS to use irq_domain for device tree irq translation. x86 is untested beyond compiling it, irq_domain is enabled for MIPS and Microblaze, but the old behaviour is preserved until the core code is modified to actually register an irq_domain yet. On ARM it works and is required for much of the new ARM device tree board support. PowerPC has /not/ been converted to use this new infrastructure. It is still missing some features before it can replace the virq infrastructure already in powerpc (see documentation on irq_domain_map/unmap for details). Followup patches will add the missing pieces and migrate PowerPC to use irq_domain. SPARC has its own method of managing interrupts from the device tree and is unaffected by this change.

2011-03-25genirq: Expand generic show_interrupts()Thomas Gleixner
Some archs want to print extra information for certain irq_chips which is per irq and not per chip. Allow them to provide a chip callback to print the chip name and the extra information. PowerPC wants to print the LEVEL/EDGE type information. Make it configurable. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2011-02-26genirq: Provide forced interrupt threadingThomas Gleixner
Add a commandline parameter "threadirqs" which forces all interrupts except those marked IRQF_NO_THREAD to run threaded. That's mostly a debug option to allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If "threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no impact in the interrupt hotpath. Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded. Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt handling into thread context. When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy. Some test results on a Core2Duo machine: Cache cold run of: # time git grep irq_desc non-threaded threaded real 1m18.741s 1m19.061s user 0m1.874s 0m1.757s sys 0m5.843s 0m5.427s # iperf -c server non-threaded [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.09 GBytes 933 Mbits/sec [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.09 GBytes 934 Mbits/sec [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.09 GBytes 933 Mbits/sec threaded [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.09 GBytes 939 Mbits/sec [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.09 GBytes 934 Mbits/sec [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.09 GBytes 937 Mbits/sec Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> LKML-Reference: <20110223234956.772668648@linutronix.de>

The saving of this switch is minimal versus the ifdef mess it creates. Simple enable PER_CPU unconditionally and remove the config switch. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2011-02-19genirq: Add IRQ_INPROGRESS to coreThomas Gleixner
We need to maintain the flag for now in both fields status and istate. Add a CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_COMPAT switch to allow testing w/o the status one. Wrap the access to status IRQ_INPROGRESS in a inline which can be turned of with CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_COMPAT along with the define. There is no reason that anything outside of core looks at this. That needs some modifications, but we'll get there. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2011-02-19genirq: Implement generic irq_show_interrupts()Thomas Gleixner
All archs implement show_interrupts() in more or less the same way. That's tons of duplicated code with different bugs with no value. Implement a generic version and deprecate show_interrupts() Unfortunately we need some ifdeffery for !GENERIC_HARDIRQ archs. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2010-10-12genirq: Remove the now unused sparse irq leftoversThomas Gleixner
The move_irq_desc() function was only used due to the problem that the allocator did not free the old descriptors. So the descriptors had to be moved in create_irq_nr(). That's history. The code would have never been able to move active interrupt descriptors on affinity settings. That can be done in a completely different way w/o all this horror. Remove all of it.
