genirq: Fix race condition when stopping the irq thread

2011-12-02T10:54:24Z

In irq_wait_for_interrupt(), the should_stop member is verified before setting the task's state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and calling schedule(). In case kthread_stop sets should_stop and wakes up the process after should_stop is checked by the irq thread but before the task's state is changed, the irq thread might never exit: kthread_stop irq_wait_for_interrupt ------------ ---------------------- ... ... while (!kthread_should_stop()) { kthread->should_stop = 1; wake_up_process(k); wait_for_completion(&kthread->exited); ... set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); ... schedule(); } Fix this by checking if the thread should stop after modifying the task's state.

genirq: fix regression in irqfixup, irqpoll

2011-11-28T16:43:09Z

Commit fa27271bc8d2("genirq: Fixup poll handling") introduced a regression that broke irqfixup/irqpoll for some hardware configurations. Amidst reorganizing 'try_one_irq', that patch removed a test that checked for 'action->handler' returning IRQ_HANDLED, before acting on the interrupt. Restoring this test back returns the functionality lost since 2.6.39. In the current set of tests, after 'action' is set, it must precede '!action->next' to take effect. With this and my previous patch to irq/spurious.c, c75d720fca8a, all IRQ regressions that I have encountered are fixed.

genirq: Don't allow per cpu interrupts to be suspended

2011-11-17T16:44:04Z

The power management functions related to interrupts do not know (yet) about per-cpu interrupts and end up calling the wrong low-level methods to enable/disable interrupts. This leads to all kind of interesting issues (action taken on one CPU only, updating a refcount which is not used otherwise...). The workaround for the time being is simply to flag these interrupts with IRQF_NO_SUSPEND. At least on ARM, these interrupts are actually dealt with at the architecture level.

genirq: Fix irqfixup, irqpoll regression

2011-11-03T12:12:39Z

commit d05c65fff0 ("genirq: spurious: Run only one poller at a time") introduced a regression, leaving the boot options 'irqfixup' and 'irqpoll' non-functional. The patch placed tests in each function, to exit if the function is already running. The test in 'misrouted_irq' exited when it should have proceeded, effectively disabling 'misrouted_irq' and 'poll_spurious_irqs'. The check for an already running poller needs to be "!= 1" not "== 1" as "1" is the value when the first poller starts running.

irq: don't put module.h into irq.h for tracking irqgen modules.

2011-10-31T23:32:35Z

Recent commit "irq: Track the owner of irq descriptor" in commit ID b6873807a7143b7 placed module.h into linux/irq.h but we are trying to limit module.h inclusion to just C files that really need it, due to its size and number of children includes. This targets just reversing that include. Add in the basic "struct module" since that is all we really need to ensure things compile. In theory, b687380 should have added the module.h include to the irqdesc.h header as well, but the implicit module.h everywhere presence masked this from showing up. So give it the "struct module" as well. As for the C files, irqdesc.c is only using THIS_MODULE, so it does not need module.h - give it export.h instead. The C file irq/manage.c is now (as of b687380) using try_module_get and module_put and so it needs module.h (which it already has). Also convert the irq_alloc_descs variants to macros, since all they really do is is call the __irq_alloc_descs primitive. This avoids including export.h and no debug info is lost.

kernel: Fix files explicitly needing EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure

2011-10-31T23:30:05Z

These files were getting via an implicit non-obvious path, but we want to crush those out of existence since they cost time during compiles of processing thousands of lines of headers for no reason. Give them the lightweight header that just contains the EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker
