* hrtimer: Get rid of hrtimer softirqThomas Gleixner2015-04-221-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hrtimer softirq is a leftover from the initial implementation and serves only the purpose to handle the enqueueing of already expired timers in the high resolution timer mode. We discussed whether we change the return value and force all start sites to handle that the timer is already expired, but that would be a Herculean task and I'm not sure whether its a good idea to enforce that handling on everyone. A simpler solution is to enforce a timer interrupt instead of raising and scheduling a softirq. Just use the existing infrastructure to do so and remove all the softirq leftovers. The HRTIMER softirq enum is now unused, but kept around because trace parsers rely on the existing numbering.

* genirq: Allow the irqchip state of an IRQ to be save/restoredMarc Zyngier2015-04-081-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a number of cases where a kernel subsystem may want to introspect the state of an interrupt at the irqchip level: - When a peripheral is shared between virtual machines, its interrupt state becomes part of the guest's state, and must be switched accordingly. KVM on arm/arm64 requires this for its guest-visible timer - Some GPIO controllers seem to require peeking into the interrupt controller they are connected to to report their internal state This seem to be a pattern that is common enough for the core code to try and support this without too many horrible hacks. Introduce a pair of accessors (irq_get_irqchip_state/irq_set_irqchip_state) to retrieve the bits that can be of interest to another subsystem: pending, active, and masked. - irq_get_irqchip_state returns the state of the interrupt according to a parameter set to IRQCHIP_STATE_PENDING, IRQCHIP_STATE_ACTIVE, IRQCHIP_STATE_MASKED or IRQCHIP_STATE_LINE_LEVEL. - irq_set_irqchip_state similarly sets the state of the interrupt.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It currently is required that all users of NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines pass the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag when requesting the IRQ or the WARN_ON_ONCE() in irq_pm_install_action() will trigger. That is done to warn about situations in which unprepared interrupt handlers may be run unnecessarily for suspended devices and may attempt to access those devices by mistake. However, it may cause drivers that have no technical reasons for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND to set that flag just because they happen to share the interrupt line with something like a timer. Moreover, the generic handling of wakeup interrupts introduced by commit 9ce7a25849e8 (genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanism) only works for IRQs without any NO_SUSPEND users, so the drivers of wakeup devices needing to use shared NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines for signaling system wakeup generally have to detect wakeup in their interrupt handlers. Thus if they happen to share an interrupt line with a NO_SUSPEND user, they also need to request that their interrupt handlers be run after suspend_device_irqs(). In both cases the reason for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND is not because the driver in question has a genuine need to run its interrupt handler after suspend_device_irqs(), but because it happens to share the line with some other NO_SUSPEND user. Otherwise, the driver would do without IRQF_NO_SUSPEND just fine. To make it possible to specify that condition explicitly, introduce a new IRQ action handler flag for shared IRQs, IRQF_COND_SUSPEND, that, when set, will indicate to the IRQ core that the interrupt user is generally fine with suspending the IRQ, but it also can tolerate handler invocations after suspend_device_irqs() and, in particular, it is capable of detecting system wakeup and triggering it as appropriate from its interrupt handler. That will allow us to work around a problem with a shared timer interrupt line on at91 platforms.

| * genirq / PM: better describe IRQF_NO_SUSPEND semanticsMark Rutland2015-02-261-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag is intended to be used for interrupts required to be enabled during the suspend-resume cycle. This mostly consists of IPIs and timer interrupts, potentially including chained irqchip interrupts if these are necessary to handle timers or IPIs. If an interrupt does not fall into one of the aforementioned categories, requesting it with IRQF_NO_SUSPEND is likely incorrect. Using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND does not guarantee that the interrupt can wake the system from a suspended state. For an interrupt to be able to trigger a wakeup, it may be necessary to program various components of the system. In these cases it is necessary to use {enable,disabled}_irq_wake. Unfortunately, several drivers assume that IRQF_NO_SUSPEND ensures that an IRQ can wake up the system, and the documentation can be read ambiguously w.r.t. this property. This patch updates the documentation regarding IRQF_NO_SUSPEND to make this caveat explicit, hopefully making future misuse rarer. Cleanup of existing misuse will occur as part of later patch series.

* | genirq: Remove the deprecated 'IRQF_DISABLED' request_irq() flag entirelyValentin Rothberg2015-03-051-3/+0

According to commit e58aa3d2d0cc ("genirq: Run irq handlers with interrupts disabled"), running IRQ handlers with interrupts enabled can cause stack overflows when the interrupt line of the issuing device is still active. This patch ends the grace period for IRQF_DISABLED (i.e., SA_INTERRUPT in older versions of Linux) and removes the definition and all remaining usages of this flag. There's still a few non-functional references left in the kernel source: - The bigger hunk in Documentation/scsi/ncr53c8xx.txt is removed entirely as IRQF_DISABLED is gone now; the usage in older kernel versions (including the old SA_INTERRUPT flag) should be discouraged. The trouble of using IRQF_SHARED is a general problem and not specific to any driver. - I left the reference in Documentation/PCI/MSI-HOWTO.txt untouched since it has already been removed in linux-next. - All remaining references are changelogs that I suggest to keep.

* | genirq: Provide disable_hardirq()Peter Zijlstra2015-02-181-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For things like netpoll there is a need to disable an interrupt from atomic context. Currently netpoll uses disable_irq() which will sleep-wait on threaded handlers and thus forced_irqthreads breaks things. Provide disable_hardirq(), which uses synchronize_hardirq() to only wait for active hardirq handlers; also change synchronize_hardirq() to return the status of threaded handlers. This will allow one to try-disable an interrupt from atomic context, or in case of request_threaded_irq() to only wait for the hardirq part.

* genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanismThomas Gleixner2014-09-011-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we suspend wakeup interrupts by lazy disabling them and check later whether the interrupt has fired, but that's not sufficient for suspend to idle as there is no way to check that once we transitioned into the CPU idle state. So we change the mechanism in the following way: 1) Leave the wakeup interrupts enabled across suspend 2) Add a check to irq_may_run() which is called at the beginning of each flow handler whether the interrupt is an armed wakeup source. This check is basically free as it just extends the existing check for IRQD_IRQ_INPROGRESS. So no new conditional in the hot path. If the IRQD_WAKEUP_ARMED flag is set, then the interrupt is disabled, marked as pending/suspended and the pm core is notified about the wakeup event.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to route an interrupt to an offline cpu. But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask. If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu. The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code. We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it. That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and things just work. This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity(). Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock event drivers.

* genirq: Provide irq_wake_thread()Thomas Gleixner2014-02-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In course of the sdhci/sdio discussion with Russell about killing the sdio kthread hackery we discovered the need to be able to wake an interrupt thread from software. The rationale for this is, that sdio hardware can lack proper interrupt support for certain features. So the driver needs to poll the status registers, but at the same time it needs to be woken up by an hardware interrupt. To be able to get rid of the home brewn kthread construct of sdio we need a way to wake an irq thread independent of an actual hardware interrupt. Provide an irq_wake_thread() function which wakes up the thread which is associated to a given dev_id. This allows sdio to invoke the irq thread from the hardware irq handler via the IRQ_WAKE_THREAD return value and provides a possibility to wake it via a timer for the polling scenarios. That allows to simplify the sdio logic significantly.

* time: RCU permitted to stop idle entry via softirqPaul E. McKenney2012-09-231-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The can_stop_idle_tick() function complains if a softirq vector is raised too late in the idle-entry process, presumably in order to prevent dangling softirq invocations from being delayed across the full idle period, which might be indefinitely long -- and if softirq was asserted any later than the call to this function, such a delay might well happen. However, RCU needs to be able to use softirq to stop idle entry in order to be able to drain RCU callbacks from the current CPU, which in turn enables faster entry into dyntick-idle mode, which in turn reduces power consumption. Because RCU takes this action at a well-defined point in the idle-entry path, it is safe for RCU to take this approach. This commit therefore silences the error message that is sometimes produced when the going-idle CPU suddenly finds that it has an RCU_SOFTIRQ to process. The error message will continue to be issued for other softirq vectors. Reported-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* genirq: Add support for per-cpu dev_id interruptsMarc Zyngier2011-10-031-11/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ARM GIC interrupt controller offers per CPU interrupts (PPIs), which are usually used to connect local timers to each core. Each CPU has its own private interface to the GIC, and only sees the PPIs that are directly connect to it. While these timers are separate devices and have a separate interrupt line to a core, they all use the same IRQ number. For these devices, request_irq() is not the right API as it assumes that an IRQ number is visible by a number of CPUs (through the affinity setting), but makes it very awkward to express that an IRQ number can be handled by all CPUs, and yet be a different interrupt line on each CPU, requiring a different dev_id cookie to be passed back to the handler. The *_percpu_irq() functions is designed to overcome these limitations, by providing a per-cpu dev_id vector: int request_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, irq_handler_t handler, const char *devname, void __percpu *percpu_dev_id); void free_percpu_irq(unsigned int, void __percpu *); int setup_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *new); void remove_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *act); void enable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq); void disable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq); The API has a number of limitations: - no interrupt sharing - no threading - common handler across all the CPUs Once the interrupt is requested using setup_percpu_irq() or request_percpu_irq(), it must be enabled by each core that wishes its local interrupt to be delivered.

* rcu: Use softirq to address performance regressionShaohua Li2011-06-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit a26ac2455ffcf3(rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthread) introduced performance regression. In an AIM7 test, this commit degraded performance by about 40%. The commit runs rcu callbacks in a kthread instead of softirq. We observed high rate of context switch which is caused by this. Out test system has 64 CPUs and HZ is 1000, so we saw more than 64k context switch per second which is caused by RCU's per-CPU kthread. A trace showed that most of the time the RCU per-CPU kthread doesn't actually handle any callbacks, but instead just does a very small amount of work handling grace periods. This means that RCU's per-CPU kthreads are making the scheduler do quite a bit of work in order to allow a very small amount of RCU-related processing to be done. Alex Shi's analysis determined that this slowdown is due to lock contention within the scheduler. Unfortunately, as Peter Zijlstra points out, the scheduler's real-time semantics require global action, which means that this contention is inherent in real-time scheduling. (Yes, perhaps someone will come up with a workaround -- otherwise, -rt is not going to do well on large SMP systems -- but this patch will work around this issue in the meantime. And "the meantime" might well be forever.) This patch therefore re-introduces softirq processing to RCU, but only for core RCU work. RCU callbacks are still executed in kthread context, so that only a small amount of RCU work runs in softirq context in the common case. This should minimize ksoftirqd execution, allowing us to skip boosting of ksoftirqd for CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y kernels.

* rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthreadPaul E. McKenney2011-05-051-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If RCU priority boosting is to be meaningful, callback invocation must be boosted in addition to preempted RCU readers. Otherwise, in presence of CPU real-time threads, the grace period ends, but the callbacks don't get invoked. If the callbacks don't get invoked, the associated memory doesn't get freed, so the system is still subject to OOM. But it is not reasonable to priority-boost RCU_SOFTIRQ, so this commit moves the callback invocations to a kthread, which can be boosted easily. Also add comments and properly synchronized all accesses to rcu_cpu_kthread_task, as suggested by Lai Jiangshan. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

That's mostly a debug option to allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If "threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no impact in the interrupt hotpath. Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded. Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt handling into thread context. When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy.

But not only because I'm lazy, the main reason is that it's way simpler than using a refcount. A refcount based solution would need to keep track of various things like crashing the irq thread, spurious interrupts coming in, disables/enables, free_irq() and some more.
