I think that's >= 16 because the legacy space is 0-15 yes, It should be >=16. Will modify it. > structure.

It just lacks the information WHY the current logic fails to handle it. > This patch fixes it. This part is completely useless. You should at least explain the concept of the fix, not the details (they can be seen from the code). Sure, will remove this part. Let me give you an example: Platforms which support only IOAPIC mode pass the SCI information of interrupts above the legacy space (0-15) via the FADT mechanism and not via MADT, i.e. the table parser ends up calling acpi_sci_ioapic_setup(). acpi_sci_ioapic_setup() uses mp_override_legacy_irq() to register SCI interrupts, which fails for interrupts >= 16, because it only handles interrupts 0-15. Provide a separate function to handle SCI interrupts >= 16 and invoke it conditional in acpi_sci_ioapic_setup(). This creates some code duplication, which will be cleaned up in a separate patch. See? Thanks for the example. Will give details on why the current logic fails and high level view of the fix. > Signed-off-by: Vikas C Sajjan <vikas.cha.sajjan@xxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Sunil V L <sunil.vl@xxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Abdul Lateef Attar <abdul-lateef.attar@xxxxxxx> This Signed-off-by chain is broken. It says: Vikas wrote the patch and handed it to Sunil Sunil handed it to Abdul Abdul sent it to lkml Which is obviously not the case. 3 of us worked on it, hence I had put all the 3 "Signed-off-by". Are you suggesting to call-out who did what. Is that what you mean, when you say "Signed-off-by chain is broken". > --- > arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c | 37 > ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- > 1 file changed, 36 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c b/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c > index ef9e02e..40c24d1b 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c > @@ -429,6 +429,37 @@ static int mp_config_acpi_gsi(struct device *dev, u32 gsi, int trigger, > return 0; > } > > +static int __init mp_register_ioapic_irq(u8 bus_irq, u8 polarity, > + u8 trigger, u32 gsi) > +{ > + int ioapic; > + int pin; > + struct mpc_intsrc mp_irq; I know you copied that, but please get rid of the extra line and sort the variables in reverse fir tree fashion, i.e.: struct mpc_intsrc mp_irq; int ioapic, pin; That takes less space and is better to read/parse.
