automatic interrupt affinity for MSI/MSI-X capable devices V2

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

 



This series enhances the irq and PCI code to allow spreading around MSI and
MSI-X vectors so that they have per-cpu affinity if possible, or at least
per-node.  For that it takes the algorithm from blk-mq, moves it to
a common place, and makes it available through a vastly simplified PCI
interrupt allocation API.  It then switches blk-mq to be able to pick up
the queue mapping from the device if available, and demonstrates all this
using the NVMe driver.

There also is a git tree available at:

Changes since V1:
 - irq core improvements to properly assign the affinity before
   request_irq (tglx)
 - better handling of the MSI vs MSI-X differences in the low level
   MSI allocator (hch and tglx)
 - various improvements to pci_alloc_irq_vectors (hch)
 - remove blk-mq hardware queue reassigned on hotplug cpu events (hch)
 - forward ported to Jens' current for-next tree (hch)
