3.16.7-ckt7 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit a3e6c1eff54878506b2dddcc202df9cc8180facb upstream. 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 Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-mips@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/8949/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- 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 e498f2b3646a..f5598e25e906 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/irq_cpu.c @@ -56,6 +56,8 @@ 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, }; /* @@ -92,6 +94,8 @@ 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, }; void __init mips_cpu_irq_init(void) -- 2.1.4
