2014-05-07genirq: Provide irq_force_affinity fallback for non-SMPArnd Bergmann1-0/+5
Patch 01f8fa4f01d "genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interrupts" added an irq_force_affinity() function, and 30ccf03b4a6 "clocksource: Exynos_mct: Use irq_force_affinity() in cpu bringup" subsequently uses it. However, the driver can be used with CONFIG_SMP disabled, but the function declaration is only available for CONFIG_SMP, leading to this build error: drivers/clocksource/exynos_mct.c:431:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'irq_force_affinity' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] irq_force_affinity(mct_irqs[MCT_L0_IRQ + cpu], cpumask_of(cpu)); This patch introduces a dummy helper function for the non-SMP case that always returns success, to get rid of the build error. Since the patches causing the problem are marked for stable backports, this one should be as well.

2014-04-18genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interruptsThomas Gleixner1-1/+34
The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to route an interrupt to an offline cpu. But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask. If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu. The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code. We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it. That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and things just work. This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity(). Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock event drivers.

2014-02-19genirq: Provide irq_wake_thread()Thomas Gleixner1-0/+1
In course of the sdhci/sdio discussion with Russell about killing the sdio kthread hackery we discovered the need to be able to wake an interrupt thread from software. The rationale for this is, that sdio hardware can lack proper interrupt support for certain features. So the driver needs to poll the status registers, but at the same time it needs to be woken up by an hardware interrupt. To be able to get rid of the home brewn kthread construct of sdio we need a way to wake an irq thread independent of an actual hardware interrupt. Provide an irq_wake_thread() function which wakes up the thread which is associated to a given dev_id. This allows sdio to invoke the irq thread from the hardware irq handler via the IRQ_WAKE_THREAD return value and provides a possibility to wake it via a timer for the polling scenarios. That allows to simplify the sdio logic significantly.

In some cases, free_irq_cpu_rmap() is called while holding a lock (eg rtnl). This can lead to deadlocks, because it invokes flush_scheduled_work() which ends up waiting for whole system workqueue to flush, but some pending works might try to acquire the lock we are already holding. This commit uses reference-counting to replace irq_run_affinity_notifiers(). It also removes irq_run_affinity_notifiers() altogether.

2012-09-23time: RCU permitted to stop idle entry via softirqPaul E. McKenney1-0/+2
The can_stop_idle_tick() function complains if a softirq vector is raised too late in the idle-entry process, presumably in order to prevent dangling softirq invocations from being delayed across the full idle period, which might be indefinitely long -- and if softirq was asserted any later than the call to this function, such a delay might well happen. However, RCU needs to be able to use softirq to stop idle entry in order to be able to drain RCU callbacks from the current CPU, which in turn enables faster entry into dyntick-idle mode, which in turn reduces power consumption. Because RCU takes this action at a well-defined point in the idle-entry path, it is safe for RCU to take this approach. This commit therefore silences the error message that is sometimes produced when the going-idle CPU suddenly finds that it has an RCU_SOFTIRQ to process. The error message will continue to be issued for other softirq vectors. Reported-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

We can use task_work instead and make this all private to kernel/irq/manage.c, cleanup plus micro-optimization. 1. rename exit_irq_thread() to irq_thread_dtor(), make it static, and move it up before irq_thread(). 2. change irq_thread() to do task_work_add(irq_thread_dtor) at the start and task_work_cancel() before return. tracehook_notify_resume() can never play with kthreads, only do_exit()->exit_task_work() can call the callback and this is what we want. 3. remove task_struct->irq_thread and the special hook in do_exit().

2011-10-03genirq: Add support for per-cpu dev_id interruptsMarc Zyngier1-11/+27
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.

2011-06-15rcu: Use softirq to address performance regressionShaohua Li1-0/+1
Commit a26ac2455ffcf3(rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthread) introduced performance regression. In an AIM7 test, this commit degraded performance by about 40%. The commit runs rcu callbacks in a kthread instead of softirq. We observed high rate of context switch which is caused by this. Out test system has 64 CPUs and HZ is 1000, so we saw more than 64k context switch per second which is caused by RCU's per-CPU kthread. A trace showed that most of the time the RCU per-CPU kthread doesn't actually handle any callbacks, but instead just does a very small amount of work handling grace periods. This means that RCU's per-CPU kthreads are making the scheduler do quite a bit of work in order to allow a very small amount of RCU-related processing to be done. Alex Shi's analysis determined that this slowdown is due to lock contention within the scheduler. Unfortunately, as Peter Zijlstra points out, the scheduler's real-time semantics require global action, which means that this contention is inherent in real-time scheduling. (Yes, perhaps someone will come up with a workaround -- otherwise, -rt is not going to do well on large SMP systems -- but this patch will work around this issue in the meantime. And "the meantime" might well be forever.) This patch therefore re-introduces softirq processing to RCU, but only for core RCU work. RCU callbacks are still executed in kthread context, so that only a small amount of RCU work runs in softirq context in the common case. This should minimize ksoftirqd execution, allowing us to skip boosting of ksoftirqd for CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y kernels.

2011-05-06rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthreadPaul E. McKenney1-1/+0
If RCU priority boosting is to be meaningful, callback invocation must be boosted in addition to preempted RCU readers. Otherwise, in presence of CPU real-time threads, the grace period ends, but the callbacks don't get invoked. If the callbacks don't get invoked, the associated memory doesn't get freed, so the system is still subject to OOM. But it is not reasonable to priority-boost RCU_SOFTIRQ, so this commit moves the callback invocations to a kthread, which can be boosted easily. Also add comments and properly synchronized all accesses to rcu_cpu_kthread_task, as suggested by Lai Jiangshan. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-02-26genirq: Provide forced interrupt threadingThomas Gleixner1-0/+7
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>
2011-02-25genirq: Add IRQF_NO_THREADThomas Gleixner1-1/+3

2011-02-25genirq: Prepare the handling of shared oneshot interruptsThomas Gleixner1-0/+2
For level type interrupts we need to track how many threads are on flight to avoid useless interrupt storms when not all thread handlers have finished yet. Keep track of the woken threads and only unmask when there are no more threads in flight. Yes, I'm lazy and using a bitfield. But not only because I'm lazy, the main reason is that it's way simpler than using a refcount. A refcount based solution would need to keep track of various things like crashing the irq thread, spurious interrupts coming in, disables/enables, free_irq() and some more. The bitfield keeps the tracking simple and makes things just work. It's also nicely confined to the thread code pathes and does not require additional checks all over the place.

2011-01-22genirq: Add IRQ affinity notifiersBen Hutchings1-1/+32
When initiating I/O on a multiqueue and multi-IRQ device, we may want to select a queue for which the response will be handled on the same or a nearby CPU. This requires a reverse-map of IRQ affinity. Add a notification mechanism to support this. This is based closely on work by Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>.

2010-11-10irq: Better struct irqaction layoutEric Dumazet1-3/+3
We currently use kmalloc-96 slab for struct irqaction allocations on 64bit arches. This is unfortunate because of possible false sharing and two cache lines accesses. Move 'name' and 'dir' fields at the end of the structure, and force a suitable alignement. Hot path fields now use one cache line on x86_64.

2010-10-21tracing: Cleanup the convoluted softirq tracepointsThomas Gleixner1-1/+1
With the addition of trace_softirq_raise() the softirq tracepoint got even more convoluted. Why the tracepoints take two pointers to assign an integer is beyond my comprehension. But adding an extra case which treats the first pointer as an unsigned long when the second pointer is NULL including the back and forth type casting is just horrible. Convert the softirq tracepoints to take a single unsigned int argument for the softirq vector number and fix the call sites.
