[PATCH v2] i2c: i801: Fix interrupt storm from SMB_ALERT signal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently interrupt storm will occur from i2c-i801 after first
transaction if SMB_ALERT signal is enabled and ever asserted. It is
enough if the signal is asserted once even before the driver is loaded
and does not recover because that interrupt is not acknowledged.

This fix aims to fix it by two ways:
- Add acknowledging for the SMB_ALERT interrupt status
- Disable the SMB_ALERT interrupt on platforms where possible since the
  driver currently does not make use for it

Acknowledging resets the SMB_ALERT interrupt status on all platforms and
also should help to avoid interrupt storm on older platforms where the
SMB_ALERT interrupt disabling is not available.

For simplicity this fix reuses the host notify feature for disabling and
restoring original register value.

v2: More verbose commenting around interrupt acknowledging, reporting
    and SMB_ALERT disabling. Fix typo in commit log and split the first
    sentence.
v1:
Hi Conrad and Stephane. This patch is otherwise the same than the one I
had in bugzilla but this adds also acknowledging for the SMB_ALERT
interrupt. There is short time window during driver load and unload
where interrupt storm will still occur if signal was asserted. Also
interrupt disabling is possible only on ICH3 and later so interrupt
acknowledging should also help those old platforms.
