dt/irq: add irq_domain_generate_simple() helper

2011-07-28T07:32:04+00:00

irq_domain_generate_simple() is an easy way to generate an irq translation
domain for simple irq controllers.  It assumes a flat 1:1 mapping from
hardware irq number to an offset of the first linux irq number assigned
to the controller

irq: add irq_domain translation infrastructure

2011-07-28T07:32:04+00:00

This patch adds irq_domain infrastructure for translating from
hardware irq numbers to linux irqs.  This is particularly important
for architectures adding device tree support because the current
implementation (excluding PowerPC and SPARC) cannot handle
translation for more than a single interrupt controller.  irq_domain
supports device tree translation for any number of interrupt
controllers.

This patch converts x86, Microblaze, ARM and MIPS to use irq_domain
for device tree irq translation.  x86 is untested beyond compiling it,
irq_domain is enabled for MIPS and Microblaze, but the old behaviour is
preserved until the core code is modified to actually register an
irq_domain yet.  On ARM it works and is required for much of the new
ARM device tree board support.

PowerPC has /not/ been converted to use this new infrastructure.  It
is still missing some features before it can replace the virq
infrastructure already in powerpc (see documentation on
irq_domain_map/unmap for details).  Followup patches will add the
missing pieces and migrate PowerPC to use irq_domain.

SPARC has its own method of managing interrupts from the device tree
and is unaffected by this change.

devres: fix possible use after free

2011-07-26T03:57:14+00:00

devres uses the pointer value as key after it's freed, which is safe but
triggers spurious use-after-free warnings on some static analysis tools.
Rearrange code to avoid such warnings.

genirq: replace irq_gc_ack() with {set,clr}_bit variants (fwd)

2011-07-07T16:02:26+00:00

This fixes a regression introduced by e59347a "arm: orion:
Use generic irq chip".

Depending on the device, interrupts acknowledgement is done by setting
or by clearing a dedicated register. Replace irq_gc_ack() with some
{set,clr}_bit variants allows to handle both cases.

Note that this patch affects the following SoCs: Davinci, Samsung and
Orion. Except for this last, the change is minor: irq_gc_ack() is just
renamed into irq_gc_ack_set_bit().

For the Orion SoCs, the edge GPIO interrupts support is currently
broken. irq_gc_ack() try to acknowledge a such interrupt by setting
the corresponding cause register bit. The Orion GPIO device expect the
opposite. To fix this issue, the irq_gc_ack_clr_bit() variant is used.

Tested on Network Space v2.

genirq: Prevent potential NULL dereference in irq_set_irq_wake()

2011-06-10T08:53:42+00:00

In kernel/irq/manage.c::irq_set_irq_wake() we call
irq_get_desc_buslock() which may return NULL, but the code
dereferences the result unconditionally.

irq_set_irq_wake() has lots of callers - I checked a few and I couldn't
find anything that guarantees that they won't call it with some input that
will cause irq_get_desc_buslock() to return NULL, so I think it's a good
thing to test and -EINVAL was the most sane error code in this situation
that I could think of.

Not all callers test the return value of irq_set_irq_wake(), but those
that do take != 0 to mean error as far as I can see, so they should be
fine. I guess those that don't test actually should, but that's a
different issue.

genirq: Ensure we locate the passed IRQ in irq_alloc_descs()

2011-06-03T12:53:16+00:00

When irq_alloc_descs() is called with no base IRQ specified then it will
search for a range of IRQs starting from a specified base address. In the
case where an IRQ is specified it still does this search in order to ensure
that none of the requested range is already allocated and it still uses the
from parameter to specify the base for the search. This means that in the
case where a base is specified but from is zero (which is reasonable as
any IRQ number is in the range specified by a zero from) the function will
get confused and try to allocate the first suitably sized block of free IRQs
it finds.

Instead use a specified IRQ as the base address for the search, and insist
that any from that is specified can support that IRQ.

genirq: Fix descriptor init on non-sparse IRQs

2011-06-03T12:53:16+00:00

The genirq changes are initializing descriptors for sparse IRQs quite
differently from how non-sparse (stacked?) IRQs are initialized, with
the effect that on my platform all IRQs are default-disabled on sparse
IRQs and default-enabled if non-sparse IRQs are used, crashing some
GPIO driver.

Fix this by refactoring the non-sparse IRQs to use the same descriptor
init function as the sparse IRQs.

irq: Handle spurios irq detection for threaded irqs

2011-06-03T12:53:15+00:00

The detection of spurios interrupts is currently limited to first level
handler. In force-threaded mode we never notice if the threaded irq does
not feel responsible.
This patch catches the return value of the threaded handler and forwards
it to the spurious detector. If the primary handler returns only
IRQ_WAKE_THREAD then the spourious detector ignores it because it gets
called again from the threaded handler.
