The overhead you talk about is calling setup_remapped_irq() for every interrupt from the mp_register_gsi() call chain? MSI & HPET should happen only once, or do I miss something? > Change irq_remap_modify_chip_defaults() to __init as it only gets > called during booting stage, via irq_remap_modify_chips(). > > Affected irq_chip: ioapic_chip, msi_chip, hpet_msi_type. > We don't need to use #ifdef in irq_remap_modify_chips(): > IRQ_REMAP only support x86_64 and X86_IO_APIC and PCI_MSI. > HPET_TIMER is set when x86_64 is set. > When we have IRQ_REMAP enabled, al three chips are defined and > used. all, not al Still, the user could disable hpet or apic from the commandline but this should cause any harm as the irq chips shouldn't be used then. > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c b/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c > index 904611b..ff50b90 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c > @@ -1552,6 +1552,8 @@ void enable_x2apic(void) > int __init enable_IR(void) > { > #ifdef CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP > + int ret; > + > if (!irq_remapping_supported()) { > pr_debug("intr-remapping not supported\n"); > return -1; > @@ -1563,7 +1565,12 @@ int __init enable_IR(void) > return -1; > } > > - return irq_remapping_enable(); > + ret = irq_remapping_enable(); > + > + if (ret >= 0) > + irq_remap_modify_chips(); This looks like ehm, well not well.
