arm: add set_handle_irq() to register the parent IRQ controller handler function

2013-01-10T17:44:38+00:00

In order to allow irqchip drivers to register their IRQ handling
function as the parent IRQ controller handler function, we provide a
convenience function. This will avoid poking directly into the global
handle_arch_irq variable.

Suggested by Arnd Bergmann.

ARM: export set_irq_flags

2012-10-09T18:24:24+00:00

The recently added Emma Mobile GPIO driver calls set_irq_flags
and irq_set_chip_and_handler for the interrupts it exports and
it can be built as a module, which currently fails with

ERROR: "set_irq_flags" [drivers/gpio/gpio-em.ko] undefined!

We either need to replace the call to set_irq_flags with something
else or export that function. This patch does the latter.

ARM: at91: aic can use fast eoi handler type

2012-07-02T12:26:57+00:00

The Advanced Interrupt Controller allows us to use the fast EOI handler type.
It lets us remove the Atmel specific workaround into arch/arm/kernel/irq.c
used to indicate to the AIC the end of the interrupt treatment.

ARM: 7406/1: hotplug: copy the affinity mask when forcefully migrating IRQs

2012-04-28T10:01:31+00:00

When a CPU is hotplugged off, we migrate any IRQs currently affine to it
away and onto another online CPU by calling the irq_set_affinity
function of the relevant interrupt controller chip. This function
returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate
whether irq_data.affinity was updated.

If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask
no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ
affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can
potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline
CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons.

This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when
the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the
affinity of an interrupt.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm

2012-03-29T23:53:48+00:00

Pull more ARM updates from Russell King.

This got a fair number of conflicts with the  split, but
also with some other sparse-irq and header file include cleanups.  They
all looked pretty trivial, though.

ARM: 7317/1: irq: avoid NULL check in for_each_irq_desc loop

2012-03-24T09:38:53+00:00

ARM unconditionally selects CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS, so the definition
of for_each_irq_desc will check that the desc is non-NULL anyway.

This patch removes a redundant check from the IRQ migration code.

arm: remove several unnecessary module.h include instances

2011-10-31T23:30:48+00:00

Building these files does not reveal a hidden need for
any of these.  Since module.h brings in the whole kitchen
sink, it just needlessly adds 30k+ lines to the cpp burden.

There are probably lots more, but ARM files of mach-* and plat-*
don't get coverage via a simple yesconfig build.  They will have
to be cleaned up and tested via using their respective configs.

ARM: gic: consolidate PPI handling

2011-10-23T12:32:29+00:00

PPI handling is a bit of an odd beast. It uses its own low level
handling code and is hardwired to the local timers (hence lacking
a registration interface).

Instead, switch the low handling to the normal SPI handling code.
PPIs are handled by the handle_percpu_devid_irq flow.

This also allows the removal of some duplicated code.

ARM: 7115/4: move __exception and friends to asm/exception.h

2011-10-17T08:02:44+00:00

The definition of __exception_irq_entry for
CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=y needs linux/ftrace.h, but this creates a
circular dependency with it's current home in asm/system.h. Create
asm/exception.h and update all current users.

v4:	- rebase to rmk/for-next
v3:	- remove redundant includes of linux/ftrace.h
v2:	- document the usage restricitions of __exception*
