genirq: Provide means to retrigger parent

2012-11-01T11:11:31+00:00

Attempts to retrigger nested threaded IRQs currently fail because they have no primary handler. In order to support retrigger of nested IRQs, the parent IRQ needs to be retriggered. To fix, when an IRQ needs to be resent, if the interrupt has a parent IRQ and runs in the context of the parent IRQ, then resend the parent. Also, handle_nested_irq() needs to clear the replay flag like the other handlers, otherwise check_irq_resend() will set it and it will never be cleared. Without clearing, it results in the first resend working fine, but check_irq_resend() returning early on subsequent resends because the replay flag is still set. Problem discovered on ARM/OMAP platforms where a nested IRQ that's also a wakeup IRQ happens late in suspend and needed to be retriggered during the resume process.

irqdesc: delete now orphaned references to timer_rand_state

2012-08-15T07:58:46+00:00

In commit c5857ccf293 ("random: remove rand_initialize_irq()") the timer_rand_state was removed from struct irq_desc. Hence we can also remove the forward declaration of it and the kernel doc information now too. Cc: Jiri Kosina Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

random: remove rand_initialize_irq()

2012-07-19T14:38:32+00:00

With the new interrupt sampling system, we are no longer using the timer_rand_state structure in the irq descriptor, so we can stop initializing it now.

irq: don't put module.h into irq.h for tracking irqgen modules.

2011-10-31T23:32:35+00:00

Recent commit "irq: Track the owner of irq descriptor" in commit ID b6873807a7143b7 placed module.h into linux/irq.h but we are trying to limit module.h inclusion to just C files that really need it, due to its size and number of children includes. This targets just reversing that include. Add in the basic "struct module" since that is all we really need to ensure things compile. In theory, b687380 should have added the module.h include to the irqdesc.h header as well, but the implicit module.h everywhere presence masked this from showing up. So give it the "struct module" as well. As for the C files, irqdesc.c is only using THIS_MODULE, so it does not need module.h - give it export.h instead. The C file irq/manage.c is now (as of b687380) using try_module_get and module_put and so it needs module.h (which it already has). Also convert the irq_alloc_descs variants to macros, since all they really do is is call the __irq_alloc_descs primitive. This avoids including export.h and no debug info is lost.

genirq: Add support for per-cpu dev_id interrupts

2011-10-03T13:35:26+00:00

The ARM GIC interrupt controller offers per CPU interrupts (PPIs), which are usually used to connect local timers to each core. Each CPU has its own private interface to the GIC, and only sees the PPIs that are directly connect to it. While these timers are separate devices and have a separate interrupt line to a core, they all use the same IRQ number. For these devices, request_irq() is not the right API as it assumes that an IRQ number is visible by a number of CPUs (through the affinity setting), but makes it very awkward to express that an IRQ number can be handled by all CPUs, and yet be a different interrupt line on each CPU, requiring a different dev_id cookie to be passed back to the handler. The *_percpu_irq() functions is designed to overcome these limitations, by providing a per-cpu dev_id vector: int request_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, irq_handler_t handler, const char *devname, void __percpu *percpu_dev_id); void free_percpu_irq(unsigned int, void __percpu *); int setup_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *new); void remove_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *act); void enable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq); void disable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq); The API has a number of limitations: - no interrupt sharing - no threading - common handler across all the CPUs Once the interrupt is requested using setup_percpu_irq() or request_percpu_irq(), it must be enabled by each core that wishes its local interrupt to be delivered. Based on an initial patch by Thomas Gleixner.

irq: Track the owner of irq descriptor

2011-07-28T09:23:21+00:00

Interrupt descriptors can be allocated from modules. The interrupts are used by other modules, but we have no refcount on the module which provides the interrupts and there is no way to establish one on the device level as the interrupt using module is agnostic to the fact that the interrupt is provided by a module rather than by some builtin interrupt controller. To prevent removal of the interrupt providing module, we can track the owner of the interrupt descriptor, which also provides the relevant irq chip functions in the irq descriptor. request/setup_irq() can now acquire a refcount on the owner module to prevent unloading. free_irq() drops the refcount.

genirq: Uninline and sanity check generic_handle_irq()

2011-05-18T12:59:08+00:00

generic_handle_irq() is missing a NULL pointer check for the result of irq_to_desc. This was a not a big problem, but we want to expose it to drivers, so we better have sanity checks in place. Add a return value as well, which indicates that the irq number was valid and the handler was invoked. Based on the pure code move from Jonathan Cameron.
