take declarations of enable_irq() et.al. to linux/interrupt.h

2007-07-22T18:44:00+00:00

Now that the last inlined instances are gone, all that is left to do
is turning disable_irq_nosync on arm26 and m68k from defines to aliases
and we are all set - we can make these externs in linux/interrupt.h
uncoditional and kill remaining instances in asm/irq.h

Add hard_irq_disable()

2007-05-11T15:29:34+00:00

Some architectures, like powerpc, implement lazy disabling of interrupts.
That means that on those, local_irq_disable() doesn't actually disable
interrupts on the CPU, but only sets some per CPU flag which cause them to be
disabled only if an interrupt actually occurs.

However, in some cases, such as stop_machine, we really want interrupts to be
fully disabled.  For example, I have code using stop machine to do ECC error
injection, used to verify operations of the ECC hardware, that sort of thing.
It really needs to make sure that nothing is actually writing to memory while
the injection happens.  Similar examples can be found in other low level bits
and pieces.

This patch implements a generic hard_irq_disable() function which is meant to
be called -after- local_irq_disable() and ensures that interrupts are fully
disabled on that CPU.  The default implementation is a nop, though powerpc
does already provide an appropriate one.

Add IRQF_IRQPOLL flag (common code)

2007-05-08T18:15:22+00:00

irqpoll is broken on some architectures that don't use the IRQ 0 for the timer
interrupt like IA64.  This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag.

Each architecture is handled in a separate pach.  As I left the irq == 0 as
condition, this should not break existing architectures that use timer_irq ==
0 and that I did't address with that patch (because I don't know).

This patch:

This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag that the interrupt registration code could
use for the interrupt it wants to use for IRQ polling.

Because this must not be the timer interrupt, an additional flag was added
instead of re-using the IRQF_TIMER constant.  Until all architectures will
have an IRQF_IRQPOLL interrupt, irq == 0 will stay as alternative as it should
not break anything.

Also, note_interrupt() is called on CPU-specific interrupts to be used as
interrupt source for IRQ polling.

Deprecate SA_xxx interrupt flags -V2

2007-05-08T18:15:08+00:00

The deprecation of the SA_xxx interrupt flags did not emit deprecated
warnings. Andrew said about the removal of the deprecated flag defines:

Define the deprecated flags as a call to a __deprecated inline function
so a warning is emitted on compile time.

Extend the reprieve of out of tree drivers to 9/2007.

IRQ: add __must_check to request_irq

2007-05-08T18:15:00+00:00

This could help to find buggy drivers where request_irq return value wasn't
checked.  There's just no reason to ignore errors which can and do occur.
Anyone who got warning during compilation have to realise what it is't
realy safe code.

[PATCH] Declare init_irq_proc before we use it.

2007-02-19T22:21:50+00:00

powerpc gets:

init/main.c: In function `do_basic_setup':
init/main.c:714: warning: implicit declaration of function `init_irq_proc'

but we cannot include linux/irq.h in generic code.

Fix it by moving the declaration into linux/interrupt.h instead.

And make sure all code that defines init_irq_proc() is including
linux/interrupt.h.

And nuke an ifdef-in-C

[PATCH] hrtimers: add high resolution timer support

2007-02-16T16:13:59+00:00

Implement high resolution timers on top of the hrtimers infrastructure and the
clockevents / tick-management framework.  This provides accurate timers for
all hrtimer subsystem users.

[PATCH] Add irq flag to disable balancing for an interrupt

2007-02-16T16:13:56+00:00

Add a flag so we can prevent the irq balancing of an interrupt.  Move the
bits, so we have room for more :)

Necessary for the ability to setup clocksources more flexible (e.g.  use the
different HPET channels per CPU)
