[added to the 3.18 stable tree] irqchip/omap-intc: Add support for spurious irq handling

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

 



From: Sekhar Nori <nsekhar@xxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit d3b421cd07e4c0d4d6c0bbd55ca169c054fc081d ]

Under some conditions, irq sorting procedure used by INTC can go wrong
resulting in a spurious irq getting reported.

If this condition is not handled, it results in endless stream of:

    unexpected IRQ trap at vector 00

messages from ack_bad_irq()

Handle the spurious interrupt condition in omap-intc driver to prevent this.

Measurements using kernel function profiler on AM335x EVM running at 720MHz
show that after this patch omap_intc_handle_irq() takes about 37.4us against
34us before this patch.
