powerpc/irq: Fix another case of lazy IRQ state getting out of sync

2012-05-11T23:40:41+00:00

So we have another case of paca->irq_happened getting out of
sync with the HW irq state. This can happen when a perfmon
interrupt occurs while soft disabled, as it will return to a
soft disabled but hard enabled context while leaving a stale
PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS flag set.

This patch fixes it, and also adds a test for the condition
of those flags being out of sync in arch_local_irq_restore()
when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled.

This helps catching those gremlins faster (and so far I
can't seem see any anymore, so that's good news).

powerpc/irq: Make alignment & program interrupt behave the same

2012-05-08T23:42:33+00:00

Alignment was the last user of the ENABLE_INTS macro, which we can
now remove. All non-syscall exceptions now disable interrupts on
entry, they get re-enabled conditionally from C code. Don't
unconditionally re-enable in program check either, check the
original context.

powerpc/irq: Fix bug with new lazy IRQ handling code

2012-05-08T23:42:21+00:00

We had a case where we could turn on hard interrupts while
leaving the PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS bit set in the PACA. This can
in turn cause a BUG_ON() to hit in __check_irq_replay() due
to interrupt state getting out of sync.

The assembly code was also way too convoluted. Instead, we
now leave it to the C code to do the right thing which ends
up being smaller and more readable.

powerpc/irqdomain: Fix broken NR_IRQ references

2012-04-30T00:45:26+00:00

The switch from using irq_map to irq_alloc_desc*() for managing irq
number allocations introduced new bugs in some of the powerpc
interrupt code.  Several functions rely on the value of NR_IRQS to
determine the maximum irq number that could get allocated.  However,
with sparse_irq and using irq_alloc_desc*() the maximum possible irq
number is now specified with 'nr_irqs' which may be a number larger
than NR_IRQS.  This has caused breakage on powermac when
CONFIG_NR_IRQS is set to 32.

This patch removes most of the direct references to NR_IRQS in the
powerpc code and replaces them with either a nr_irqs reference or by
using the common for_each_irq_desc() macro.  The powerpc-specific
for_each_irq() macro is removed at the same time.

Also, the Cell axon_msi driver is refactored to remove the global
build assumption on the size of NR_IRQS and instead add a limit to the
maximum irq number when calling irq_domain_add_nomap().

powerpc: fix build when CONFIG_BOOKE_WDT is enabled

2012-04-19T19:55:43+00:00

Commit ae3a197e (Disintegrate asm/system.h for PowerPC) broke build of
assembly files when CONFIG_BOOKE_WDT is enabled as follows:

  AS      arch/powerpc/lib/string.o
/home/baruch/git/stable/arch/powerpc/include/asm/reg_booke.h: Assembler messages:
/home/baruch/git/stable/arch/powerpc/include/asm/reg_booke.h:19: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `extern'
/home/baruch/git/stable/arch/powerpc/include/asm/reg_booke.h:20: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `extern'

Since setup_32.c is the only user of the booke_wdt configuration variables, move
the declarations there.

Pull irqdomain bug fixes from Grant Likely:
 "This branch fixes a bug in irq_create_mapping() where an error return
  from irq_alloc_desc_from() gets ignored.

  It also removes irq_virq_count to fix a bug on powerpc where the
  irqdomain code does not find irqs allocated above the CONFIG_NR_IRQS
  boundary.

  The remaining patches get rid of an completely pointless export and
  fix some minor bugs in the irqdomain debug output."

irq: Kill pointless irqd_to_hw export

2012-04-11T04:39:17+00:00

It makes no sense to export this trivial function.  Make it a static inline
instead.

This patch also drops virq_to_hw from arch/c6x since it is unused by that
architecture.

powerpc: Fix typo in runlatch code

2012-04-11T00:42:15+00:00

Commit fe1952fc0afb9a2e4c79f103c08aef5d13db1873
"powerpc: Rework runlatch code" has a nasty typo
where it uses "TLF_RUNLATCH" instead of "_TLF_RUNLATCH"
(bit number instead of bit mask), causing some flags to
be potentially lost such as _TLF_RESTORE_SIGMASK

(Brown paper bag for me ! We should be able to make
that break at compile time with a bit of magic, any
volunteer ?)
