Interrupt entry points are handled with the following code,
each 32-byte code block contains seven entry points:
...
[push][jump 22] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 18] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 14] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 10] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 6] // 4 bytes
[push][jump 2] // 4 bytes
[push][jump common_interrupt][padding] // 8 bytes
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump]
[push][jump common_interrupt][padding]
[padding_2]
common_interrupt:
And there is a table which holds pointers to every entry point,
IOW: to every push.
In cold cache, two jumps are still costlier than one, even
though we get the benefit of them residing in the same
cacheline.
This change replaces short jumps with near ones to
'common_interrupt', and pads every push+jump pair to 8 bytes. This
way, each interrupt takes only one jump.
This change replaces ".p2align CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT" before
dispatch table with ".align 8" - we do not need anything
stronger than that.
The table of entry addresses (the interrupt[] array) is no
longer necessary, the address of entries can be easily
calculated as (irq_entries_start + i*8).
text data bss dec hex filename
12546 0 0 12546 3102 entry_64.o.before
11626 0 0 11626 2d6a entry_64.o
The size decrease is because 1656 bytes of .init.rodata are
gone. That's initdata, though. The resident size does go up a
bit.
Run-tested (32 and 64 bits).

When X86_LOCAL_APIC (i.e. unconditionally on x86-64),
first_system_vector will never end up being higher than
LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR (0xef), and hence building stubs for vectors
0xef...0xff is pointlessly reducing code density. Deal with this at
build time already.
Taking into consideration that X86_64 implies X86_LOCAL_APIC, also
simplify (and hence make easier to read and more consistent with the
change done here) some #if-s in arch/x86/kernel/irqinit.c.
While we could further improve the packing of the IRQ entry stubs (the
four ones now left in the last set could be fit into the four padding
bytes each of the final four sets have) this doesn't seem to provide
any real benefit: Both irq_entries_start and common_interrupt getting
cache line aligned, eliminating the 30th set would just produce 32
bytes of padding between the 29th and common_interrupt.

that is one like we used to have from ~2.2 till it was changed
sometime.
The rationale is there is no value in this duplicate
information, it merely clutters output and looks ugly. We only
have one handler for 8259A interrupts so there is no need to
give it a name separate from the name already given to
irq_chip.
We could define meaningful names for handlers based on bits in
the ELCR register on systems that have it or the value of the
LTIM bit we use in ICW1 otherwise (hardcoded to 0 though with
MCA support gone), to tell edge-triggered and level-triggered
inputs apart. While that information does not affect 8259A
interrupt handlers it could help people determine which lines
are shareable and which are not. That is material for a
separate change though.
Any tools that parse /proc/interrupts are supposed not to be
affected since it was many years we used the format this change
converts back to.

Upstream commit:
95d76acc75 ("x86, irq: Count legacy IRQs by legacy_pic->nr_legacy_irqs instead of NR_IRQS_LEGACY")
removed reserved interrupts for the platforms that do not have a legacy IOAPIC.
Which breaks the boot on Intel MID platforms such as Medfield:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000003a
IP: [<c107079a>] setup_irq+0xf/0x4d [ 0.000000] *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 9bbf32453167e510
The culprit is an uncoditional setting of IRQ2 which is used
as cascade IRQ on legacy platforms. It seems we have to check
if we have enough legacy IRQs reserved before we can call
setup_irq().
The fix adds such check in native_init_IRQ() and in setup_default_timer_irq().

During heavy CPU-hotplug operations the following spurious kernel warnings
can trigger:
do_IRQ: No ... irq handler for vector (irq -1)
[ See: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64831 ]
When downing a cpu it is possible that there are unhandled irqs
left in the APIC IRR register. The following code path shows
how the problem can occur:
1. CPU 5 is to go down.
2. cpu_disable() on CPU 5 executes with interrupt flag cleared
by local_irq_save() via stop_machine().
3. IRQ 12 asserts on CPU 5, setting IRR but not ISR because
interrupt flag is cleared (CPU unabled to handle the irq)
4. IRQs are migrated off of CPU 5, and the vectors' irqs are set
to -1. 5. stop_machine() finishes cpu_disable()
6. cpu_die() for CPU 5 executes in normal context.
7. CPU 5 attempts to handle IRQ 12 because the IRR is set for
IRQ 12. The code attempts to find the vector's IRQ and cannot
because it has been set to -1. 8. do_IRQ() warning displays
warning about CPU 5 IRQ 12.
I added a debug printk to output which CPU & vector was
retriggered and discovered that that we are getting bogus
events. I see a 100% correlation between this debug printk in
fixup_irqs() and the do_IRQ() warning.
This patchset resolves this by adding definitions for
VECTOR_UNDEFINED(-1) and VECTOR_RETRIGGERED(-2) and modifying
the code to use them.

Posted Interrupt feature requires a special IPI to deliver posted interrupt
to guest. And it should has a high priority so the interrupt will not be
blocked by others.
Normally, the posted interrupt will be consumed by vcpu if target vcpu is
running and transparent to OS. But in some cases, the interrupt will arrive
when target vcpu is scheduled out. And host will see it. So we need to
register a dump handler to handle it.

Pull x86 cleanups from Peter Anvin:
"The biggest textual change is the cleanup to use symbolic constants
for x86 trap values.
The only *functional* change and the reason for the x86/x32 dependency
is the move of is_ia32_task() into <asm/thread_info.h> so that it can
be used in other code that needs to understand if a system call comes
from the compat entry point (and therefore uses i386 system call
numbers) or not. One intended user for that is the BPF system call
filter. Moving it out of <asm/compat.h> means we can define it
unconditionally, returning always true on i386."

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

ioapic_xlate provides a translation from the information in device tree
to ioapic related informations. This includes
- obtaining hw irq which is the vector number "=> pin number + gsi"
- obtaining type (level/edge/..)
- programming this information into ioapic
ioapic_add_ofnode adds an irq_domain based on informations from the device
tree. This information (irq_domain) is required in order to map a device to
its proper interrupt controller.

APIC and IO_APIC have to be added to the system early because
native_init_IRQ() requires it.
In order to obtain the address of the ioapic the device tree has to be
unflattened so of_address_to_resource() works.
The device tree is relocated to ensure it is always covered by the
kernel mapping. That way the boot loader does not have to make
any assumptions about kernel's memory layout.

Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Ingo Molnar reported that with the recent changes of not
statically blocking IRQ0_VECTOR..IRQ15_VECTOR's on all the
cpu's, broke an AMD platform (with Nvidia chipset) boot when
"noapic" boot option is used.
On this platform, legacy PIC interrupts are getting delivered to
all the cpu's instead of just the boot cpu. Thus not
initializing the vector to irq mapping for the legacy irq's
resulted in not handling certain interrupts causing boot hang.
Fix this by initializing the vector to irq mapping on all the
logical cpu's, if the legacy IRQ is handled by the legacy PIC.

Currently IRQ0..IRQ15 are assigned to IRQ0_VECTOR..IRQ15_VECTOR's on
all the cpu's.
If these IRQ's are handled by legacy pic controller, then the kernel
handles them only on cpu 0. So there is no need to block this vector
space on all cpu's.
Similarly if these IRQ's are handled by IO-APIC, then the IRQ affinity
will determine on which cpu's we need allocate the vector resource for
that particular IRQ. This can be done dynamically and here also there
is no need to block 16 vectors for IRQ0..IRQ15 on all cpu's.
Fix this by initially assigning IRQ0..IRQ15 to IRQ0_VECTOR..IRQ15_VECTOR's only
on cpu 0. If the legacy controllers like pic handles these irq's, then
this configuration will be fixed. If more modern controllers like IO-APIC
handle these IRQ's, then we start with this configuration and as IRQ's
migrate, vectors (/and cpu's) associated with these IRQ's change dynamically.
This will freeup the block of 16 vectors on other cpu's which don't handle
IRQ0..IRQ15, which can now be used for other IRQ's that the particular cpu
handle.

Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!
In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.
Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.
All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)
The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.
Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.
User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)
This patch has been generated via the following script:
FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')
sed -i \
-e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
-e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
-e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
-e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
-e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
-e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
$FILES
for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
mv $N $M
done
FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)
sed -i \
-e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
-e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
-e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
-e 's/counter/event/g' \
-e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
$FILES
... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.
Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.
( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

For some time each panic() called with interrupts disabled
triggered the !irqs_disabled() WARN_ON in smp_call_function(),
producing ugly backtraces and confusing users.
This is a common situation with machine checks for example which
tend to call panic with interrupts disabled, but will also hit
in other situations e.g. panic during early boot. In fact it
means that panic cannot be called in many circumstances, which
would be bad.
This all started with the new fancy queued smp_call_function,
which is then used by the shutdown path to shut down the other
CPUs.
On closer examination it turned out that the fancy RCU
smp_call_function() does lots of things not suitable in a panic
situation anyways, like allocating memory and relying on complex
system state.
I originally tried to patch this over by checking for panic
there, but it was quite complicated and the original patch
was also not very popular. This also didn't fix some of the
underlying complexity problems.
The new code in post 2.6.29 tries to patch around this by
checking for oops_in_progress, but that is not enough to make
this fully safe and I don't think that's a real solution
because panic has to be reliable.
So instead use an own vector to reboot. This makes the reboot
code extremly straight forward, which is definitely a big plus
in a panic situation where it is important to avoid relying on
too much kernel state. The new simple code is also safe to be
called from interupts off region because it is very very simple.
There can be situations where it is important that panic
is reliable. For example on a fatal machine check the panic
is needed to get the system up again and running as quickly
as possible. So it's important that panic is reliable and
all function it calls simple.
This is why I came up with this simple vector scheme.
It's very hard to beat in simplicity. Vectors are not
particularly precious anymore since all big systems are
using per CPU vectors.
Another possibility would have been to use an NMI similar
to kdump, but there is still the problem that NMIs don't
work reliably on some systems due to BIOS issues. NMIs
would have been able to stop CPUs running with interrupts
off too. In the sake of universal reliability I opted for
using a non NMI vector for now.
I put the reboot vector into the highest priority bucket of
the APIC vectors and moved the 64bit UV_BAU message down
instead into the next lower priority.

Machine checks support waking up the mcelog daemon quickly.
The original wake up code for this was pretty ugly, relying on
a idle notifier and a special process flag. The reason it did
it this way is that the machine check handler is not subject
to normal interrupt locking rules so it's not safe
to call wake_up(). Instead it set a process flag
and then either did the wakeup in the syscall return
or in the idle notifier.
This patch adds a new "bootstraping" method as replacement.
The idea is that the handler checks if it's in a state where
it is unsafe to call wake_up(). If it's safe it calls it directly.
When it's not safe -- that is it interrupted in a critical
section with interrupts disables -- it uses a new "self IPI" to trigger
an IPI to its own CPU. This can be done safely because IPI
triggers are atomic with some care. The IPI is raised
once the interrupts are reenabled and can then safely call
wake_up().
When APICs are disabled the event is just queued and will be picked up
eventually by the next polling timer. I think that's a reasonable
compromise, since it should only happen quite rarely.
