x86: expand /proc/interrupts to include missing vectors, v2
Add missing IRQs and IRQ descriptions to /proc/interrupts.
/proc/interrupts is most useful when it displays every IRQ vector in use by
the system, not just those somebody thought would be interesting.
This patch inserts the following vector displays to the i386 and x86_64
platforms, as appropriate:
rescheduling interrupts
TLB flush interrupts
function call interrupts
thermal event interrupts
threshold interrupts
spurious interrupts
A threshold interrupt occurs when ECC memory correction is occuring at too
high a frequency. Thresholds are used by the ECC hardware as occasional
ECC failures are part of normal operation, but long sequences of ECC
failures usually indicate a memory chip that is about to fail.
Thermal event interrupts occur when a temperature threshold has been
exceeded for some CPU chip. IIRC, a thermal interrupt is also generated
when the temperature drops back to a normal level.
A spurious interrupt is an interrupt that was raised then lowered by the
device before it could be fully processed by the APIC. Hence the apic sees
the interrupt but does not know what device it came from. For this case
the APIC hardware will assume a vector of 0xff.
Rescheduling, call, and TLB flush interrupts are sent from one CPU to
another per the needs of the OS. Typically, their statistics would be used
to discover if an interrupt flood of the given type has been occuring.
AK: merged v2 and v4 which had some more tweaks
AK: replace Local interrupts with Local timer interrupts
AK: Fixed description of interrupt types.
