[RFC PATCH v1 0/9] Support shared percpu interrupts; clean up MIPS hacks

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

 



This series introduces support for percpu shared interrupts and makes
use of this support to clean up some hacks that have been used to
support such interrupts on MIPS.

- Patch 1 allows users of shared interrupts to opt into IRQ_NOAUTOEN
  behaviour & avoid warnings from doing so.

- Patch 2 introduces support for shared percpu_devid interrupts.

- Patch 3 introduces a helper allowing users to detect whether an
  interrupt is a percpu_devid interrupt or not, which is useful
  during the transition phase where interrupts may be either.

- Patches 4 & 5 removes an ugly custom implementation of shared
  interrupts between the MIPS cevt-r4k timer driver & users of
  performance counters, in favor of using standard IRQF_SHARED &
  multiple handlers.

- Patches 6 & 7 add percpu interrupt support to the MIPS perf &
  cevt-r4k timer drivers respectively.

- Patch 8 configures the MIPS cop 0 count/compare, fast debug channel &
  performance counter overflow interrupts as percpu_devid when they are
  mapped by the irqchip-mips-cpu driver.

- Patch 9 removes a hack from the irqchip-mips-gic driver that was
  used to enable & disable an interrupt across all CPUs, which is no
  longer necessary with users of those interrupts using the percpu
  interrupt APIs correctly. This mirrors patch 8 for systems where we
  map the CPU local interrupts via the GIC.

There's a little more work necessary before this could go in - the
MIPS oprofile code needs adjusting to use the percpu interrupt APIs, as
does the fast debug channel driver.

Applies atop next-20170905.
