hrtimer: Remove hrtimer_start() return value

2015-04-22T15:06:52Z

No user was ever interested whether the timer was active or not when it was started. All abusers of the return value are gone, so get rid of it.

hrtimer: Get rid of hrtimer softirq

2015-04-22T15:06:50Z

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/restored

2015-04-08T21:28:28Z

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.

genirq: Remove the deprecated 'IRQF_DISABLED' request_irq() flag entirely

2015-03-05T19:53:06Z

The IRQF_DISABLED flag is a NOOP and has been scheduled for removal since Linux v2.6.36 by commit 6932bf37bed4 ("genirq: Remove IRQF_DISABLED from core code"). 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 / PM: Add flag for shared NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines

2015-03-04T20:42:19Z

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 semantics

2015-02-26T00:17:53Z

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: Provide disable_hardirq()

2015-02-18T14:08:33Z

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 mechanism

2014-09-01T11:48:59Z

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.
