If the irq_chip does not define .irq_disable, any call to disable_irq will defer disabling the IRQ until it fires while marked as disabled. This assumes that the handler function checks for this condition, which handle_percpu_irq does not. In this case, calling disable_irq leads to an IRQ storm, if the interrupt fires while disabled. This optimization is only useful when disabling the IRQ is slow, which is not true for the MIPS CPU IRQ. Disable this optimization by implementing .irq_disable and .irq_enable Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c b/arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c index 590c2c9..6eb7a3f 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c @@ -57,6 +57,8 @@ static struct irq_chip mips_cpu_irq_controller = { .irq_mask_ack = mask_mips_irq, .irq_unmask = unmask_mips_irq, .irq_eoi = unmask_mips_irq, + .irq_disable = mask_mips_irq, + .irq_enable = unmask_mips_irq, }; /* @@ -93,6 +95,8 @@ static struct irq_chip mips_mt_cpu_irq_controller = { .irq_mask_ack = mips_mt_cpu_irq_ack, .irq_unmask = unmask_mips_irq, .irq_eoi = unmask_mips_irq, + .irq_disable = mask_mips_irq, + .irq_enable = unmask_mips_irq, }; asmlinkage void __weak plat_irq_dispatch(void) -- 2.1.2
