ooh, Sorry, only this patch added(I stopped after fixing the compiling
errors, no more check! so lazy a guy!).
Just checked the source code of MIPS, the do_IRQ() is defined as a
macro, so, I must move the macro to a C file, and also, there is a
irq_enter...irq_exit block in a "big" function, I need to split it out.
[...]
/*
* do_IRQ handles all normal device IRQ's (the special
* SMP cross-CPU interrupts have their own specific
* handlers).
*
* Ideally there should be away to get this into kernel/irq/handle.c to
* avoid the overhead of a call for just a tiny function ...
*/
#define do_IRQ(irq)
\
do {
\
irq_enter();
\
__DO_IRQ_SMTC_HOOK(irq);
\
generic_handle_irq(irq);
\
irq_exit();
\
} while (0)
[...]
But The comment told us: do not make this tiny function be a standalone
function, so???
the same to do_IRQ_no_affinity.
and, about the following function, I need to split the
irq_enter()...irq_exit() block out.
void ipi_decode(struct smtc_ipi *pipi)
{
[...]
switch (type_copy) {
case SMTC_CLOCK_TICK:
irq_enter();
kstat_incr_irqs_this_cpu(irq, irq_to_desc(irq));
cd = &per_cpu(mips_clockevent_device, cpu);
cd->event_handler(cd);
irq_exit();
break;
case LINUX_SMP_IPI:
switch ((int)arg_copy) {
case SMP_RESCHEDULE_YOURSELF:
ipi_resched_interrupt();
break;
case SMP_CALL_FUNCTION:
ipi_call_interrupt();
break;
[...]
