softirq: introduce tasklet_hrtimer infrastructure
|
|
commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all
hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution
timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption
that the callback happens in softirq context.
Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers
together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might
sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held
and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has
another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required
by set_cpus_allowed_ptr().
Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time
the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems
nicely.
Add kerneldoc to irq_set_thread_affinity() while at it.

Rationale: kmemcheck needs to be able to schedule a tasklet without
touching any dynamically allocated memory _at_ _all_ (since that would
lead to a recursive page fault). This tasklet is used for writing the
error reports to the kernel log.
The new scheduling function avoids touching any other tasklets by
inserting the new tasklist as the head of the "tasklet_hi" list instead
of on the tail.
Also don't wake up the softirq thread lest the scheduler access some
tracked memory and we go down with a recursive page fault.
In this case, we'd better just wait for the maximum time of 1/HZ for the
message to appear.

git commit 0a0c5168 "PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming
device interrupts" introduced some helper functions. However these
functions are only available for architectures which support
GENERIC_HARDIRQS.
Other architectures will see this build error:

To fix this add some empty inline functions for !GENERIC_HARDIRQS.

This simplifies the node awareness of the code. All our allocators
only deal with a NUMA node ID locality not with CPU ids anyway - so
there's no need to maintain (and transform) a CPU id all across the
IRq layer.

It appears I inadvertly introduced rq->lock recursion to the
hrtimer_start() path when I delegated running already expired
timers to softirq context.
This patch fixes it by introducing a __hrtimer_start_range_ns()
method that will not use raise_softirq_irqoff() but
__raise_softirq_irqoff() which avoids the wakeup.
It then also changes schedule() to check for pending softirqs and
do the wakeup then, I'm not quite sure I like this last bit, nor
am I convinced its really needed.

Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from
getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU)
during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive
interrupts again during the subsequent resume. These functions make it
possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being
executed. In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc.
The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of
interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume. Namely,
interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending
sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving
interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their
"late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

Add support for threaded interrupt handlers:
A device driver can request that its main interrupt handler runs in a
thread. To achive this the device driver requests the interrupt with
request_threaded_irq() and provides additionally to the handler a
thread function. The handler function is called in hard interrupt
context and needs to check whether the interrupt originated from the
device. If the interrupt originated from the device then the handler
can either return IRQ_HANDLED or IRQ_WAKE_THREAD. IRQ_HANDLED is
returned when no further action is required. IRQ_WAKE_THREAD causes
the genirq code to invoke the threaded (main) handler. When
IRQ_WAKE_THREAD is returned handler must have disabled the interrupt
on the device level. This is mandatory for shared interrupt handlers,
but we need to do it as well for obscure x86 hardware where disabling
an interrupt on the IO_APIC level redirects the interrupt to the
legacy PIC interrupt lines.

Provide a shared interrupt debug facility under CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ:
it uses the existing irqpoll facilities to iterate through all
registered interrupt handlers and call those which can handle shared
IRQ lines.
This can be handy for suspend/resume debugging: if we call this function
early during resume we can trigger crashes in those drivers which have
incorrect assumptions about when exactly their ISRs will be called
during suspend/resume.

GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in
the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to
inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override
the weak alias with the real thing.

Impact: new feature
Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.
To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.
When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).
This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

Impact: cleanup, move all hrtimer processing into hardirq context
This is an attempt at removing some of the hrtimer complexity by
reducing the number of callback modes to 1.
This means that all hrtimer callback functions will be ran from HARD-irq
context.
I went through all the 30 odd hrtimer callback functions in the kernel
and saw only one that I'm not quite sure of, which is the one in
net/can/bcm.c - hence I'm CC-ing the folks responsible for that code.
Furthermore, the hrtimer core now calls callbacks directly with IRQs
disabled in case you try to enqueue an expired timer. If this timer is a
periodic timer (which should use hrtimer_forward() to advance its time)
then it might be possible to end up in an inf. recursive loop due to the
fact that hrtimer_forward() doesn't round up to the next timer
granularity, and therefore keeps on calling the callback - obviously
this needs a fix.
Aside from that, this seems to compile and actually boot on my dual core
test box - although I'm sure there are some bugs in, me not hitting any
makes me certain :-)

This merges branches irq/genirq, irq/sparseirq-v4, timers/hpet-percpu
and x86/uv.
The sparseirq branch is just preliminary groundwork: no sparse IRQs are
actually implemented by this tree anymore - just the new APIs are added
while keeping the old way intact as well (the new APIs map 1:1 to
irq_desc[]). The 'real' sparse IRQ support will then be a relatively
small patch ontop of this - with a v2.6.29 merge target.
