genirq: Add IRQF_FORCE_RESUME

2011-08-01T20:54:56+00:00

commit dc5f219e88294b93009eef946251251ffffb6d60 upstream. Xen needs to reenable interrupts which are marked IRQF_NO_SUSPEND in the resume path. Add a flag to force the reenabling in the resume code.

irq: Add new IRQ flag IRQF_NO_SUSPEND

2010-08-13T20:31:07+00:00

commit 685fd0b4ea3f0f1d5385610b0d5b57775a8d5842 upstream. A small number of users of IRQF_TIMER are using it for the implied no suspend behaviour on interrupts which are not timer interrupts. Therefore add a new IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag, rename IRQF_TIMER to __IRQF_TIMER and redefine IRQF_TIMER in terms of these new flags.

genirq: Add CPU mask affinity hint

2010-05-03T09:50:57+00:00

This patch adds a cpumask affinity hint to the irq_desc structure, along with a registration function and a read-only proc entry for each interrupt. This affinity_hint handle for each interrupt can be used by underlying drivers that need a better mechanism to control interrupt affinity. The underlying driver can register a cpumask for the interrupt, which will allow the driver to provide the CPU mask for the interrupt to anything that requests it. The intent is to extend the userspace daemon, irqbalance, to help hint to it a preferred CPU mask to balance the interrupt into.

genirq: Remove IRQF_DISABLED from core code

2010-04-13T14:36:40+00:00

Remove all code which is related to IRQF_DISABLED from the core kernel code. IRQF_DISABLED still exists as a flag, but becomes a NOOP and will be removed after a grace period. That way we can easily revert to the previous behaviour by just restoring the core code.

genirq: Introduce request_any_context_irq()

2010-04-13T14:36:39+00:00

Now that we enjoy threaded interrupts, we're starting to see irq_chip implementations (wm831x, pca953x) that make use of threaded interrupts for the controller, and nested interrupts for the client interrupt. It all works very well, with one drawback: Drivers requesting an IRQ must now know whether the handler will run in a thread context or not, and call request_threaded_irq() or request_irq() accordingly. The problem is that the requesting driver sometimes doesn't know about the nature of the interrupt, specially when the interrupt controller is a discrete chip (typically a GPIO expander connected over I2C) that can be connected to a wide variety of otherwise perfectly supported hardware. This patch introduces the request_any_context_irq() function that mostly mimics the usual request_irq(), except that it checks whether the irq level is configured as nested or not, and calls the right backend. On success, it also returns either IRQC_IS_HARDIRQ or IRQC_IS_NESTED.

irq: Remove unused debug_poll_all_shared_irqs()

headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.h

2009-10-11T18:20:58+00:00

After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current, it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k! Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan

cpumask: remove unused mask field from struct irqaction.

2009-09-24T00:04:37+00:00

Up until 1.1.83, the primitive human tribes used struct sigaction for interrupts. The sa_mask field was overloaded to hold a pointer to the name. When someone created the new "struct irqaction" they carried across the "mask" field as a kind of ancestor worship: the fact that it was unused makes clear its spiritual significance.
