Genirq hasn't previously recorded the trigger type used by any given IRQ,
although some irq_chip support has done so. That data can be useful when
troubleshooting. This patch records it in the relevant irq_desc.status
bits, and improves consistency between the two driver-visible calls
affected:
- Make set_irq_type() usage match request_irq() usage:
* IRQ_TYPE_NONE should be a NOP; succeed, so irq_chip methods
won't have to handle that case any more (many do it wrong).
* IRQ_TYPE_PROBE is ignored; any buggy out-of-tree callers
might need to switch over to the real IRQ probing code.
* emit the same diagnostics (from shared utility code)
- Their kerneldoc now reflects usage:
* request_irq() flags include IRQF_TRIGGER_* to specify
active edge(s)/level ... docs previously omitted that
* set_irq_type() is declared in <linux/irq.h> so callers
should use the (bit-equivalent) IRQ_TYPE_* symbols there
Also: adds a warning about shared IRQs that don't end up using the
requested trigger mode; and fix an unrelated "sparse" warning.

This patch clarifies usage of irq_chip->startup() callback:
1. The "if (startup) startup(); else enabled();" code in setup_irq()
is unnecessary, as startup() falls back to enabled() via
default callbacks, set by irq_chip_set_defaults().
2. When using set_irq_chained_handler() the startup() was never called,
which is not good at all... Fixed. And again - when startup() is not
defined the call will fall back to enable() than to unmask() via
default callbacks.

set_type returns an int indicating success or failure, but up to now

In my case this resulted in a machine hang:
gpio-keys requested IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING | IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, but
arm/ns9xxx can only trigger on one direction so set_type didn't touch
the configuration which happens do default to a level sensitiveness and
returned -EINVAL. setup_irq ignored that and unmasked the irq. This
resulted in an endless triggering of the gpio-key interrupt service
routine which effectively killed the machine.
With this patch applied setup_irq propagates the error to the caller.

When we disable a screaming irq we never see it again. If the irq
line is shared or if the driver half works this is a real pain. So
periodically poll the handlers for screaming interrupts.
I use a timer instead of the classic irq poll technique of working off
the timer interrupt because when we use the local apic timers
note_interrupt is never called (bug?). Further on a system with
dynamic ticks the timer interrupt might not even fire unless there is
a timer telling it it needs to.
I forced this case on my test system with an e1000 nic and my ssh
session remained responsive despite the interrupt handler only being
called every 10th of a second.

Uwe Kleine-Koenig has some strange hardware where one of the shared
interrupts can be asserted during boot before the appropriate driver
loads. Requesting the shared irq line from another driver result in a
spurious interrupt storm which finally disables the interrupt line.
I have seen similar behaviour on resume before (the hardware does not
work anymore so I can not verify).
Change the spurious disable logic to increment the disable depth and
mark the interrupt with an extra flag which allows us to reenable the
interrupt when a new driver arrives which requests the same irq
line. In the worst case this will disable the irq again via the
spurious trap, but there is a decent chance that the new driver is the
one which can handle the already asserted interrupt and makes the box
usable again.
Eric Biederman said further: This case also happens on a regular basis
in kdump kernels where we deliberately don't shutdown the hardware
before starting the new kernel. This patch should reduce the need for
using irqpoll in that situation by a small amount.

The default_disable() function was changed in commit:
76d2160147
genirq: do not mask interrupts by default
It removed the mask function in favour of the default delayed
interrupt disabling. Unfortunately this also broke the shutdown in
free_irq() when the last handler is removed from the interrupt for
those architectures which rely on the default implementations. Now we
can end up with a enabled interrupt line after the last handler was
removed, which can result in spurious interrupts.
Fix this by adding a default_shutdown function, which is only
installed, when the irqchip implementation does provide neither a
shutdown nor a disable function.

Probing non-ISA interrupts using the handle_percpu_irq as their handle_irq
method may crash the system because handle_percpu_irq does not check
IRQ_WAITING. This for example hits the MIPS Qemu configuration.
This patch provides two helper functions set_irq_noprobe and set_irq_probe to
set rsp. clear the IRQ_NOPROBE flag. The only current caller is MIPS code
but this really belongs into generic code.
As an aside, interrupt probing these days has become a mostly obsolete if not

non-probing but that's subject of this patch.

In commit 76d2160147 lazy irq disabling
was implemented, and the simple irq handler had a masking set to it.
Remy Bohmer discovered that some devices in the ARM architecture
would trigger the mask, but never unmask it. His patch to do the
unmasking was questioned by Russell King about masking simple irqs
to begin with. Looking further, it was discovered that the problems
Remy was seeing was due to improper use of the simple handler by
devices, and he later submitted patches to fix those. But the issue
that was uncovered was that the simple handler should never mask.
This patch reverts the masking in the simple handler.

In __do_IRQ(), the normal case is that IRQ_DISABLED is checked and if set
the handler (handle_IRQ_event()) is not called.
Earlier in __do_IRQ(), if IRQ_PER_CPU is set the code does not check
IRQ_DISABLED and calls the handler even though IRQ_DISABLED is set. This
behavior seems unintentional.
One user encountering this behavior is the CPE handler (in
arch/ia64/kernel/mca.c). When the CPE handler encounters too many CPEs
(such as a solid single bit error), it sets up a polling timer and disables
the CPE interrupt (to avoid excessive overhead logging the stream of single
bit errors). disable_irq_nosync() is called which sets IRQ_DISABLED. The
IRQ_PER_CPU flag was previously set (in ia64_mca_late_init()). The net
result is the CPE handler gets called even though it is marked disabled.
If the behavior of not checking IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is set is
intentional, it would be worthy of a comment describing the intended
behavior. disable_irq_nosync() does call chip->disable() to provide a
chipset specifiec interface for disabling the interrupt, which avoids this
issue when used.

As it is some callers of synchronize_irq rely on memory barriers
to provide synchronisation against the IRQ handlers. For example,
the tg3 driver does
tp->irq_sync = 1;
smp_mb();
synchronize_irq();
and then in the IRQ handler:
if (!tp->irq_sync)
netif_rx_schedule(dev, &tp->napi);
Unfortunately memory barriers only work well when they come in
pairs. Because we don't actually have memory barriers on the
IRQ path, the memory barrier before the synchronize_irq() doesn't
actually protect us.
In particular, synchronize_irq() may return followed by the
result of netif_rx_schedule being made visible.
This patch (mostly written by Linus) fixes this by using spin
locks instead of memory barries on the synchronize_irq() path.

This shows that a driver's irq handler was running both in hard interrupt
and process contexts with irqs enabled. The latter was done during
free_irq() call and was possible only with CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ enabled.
This was fixed by another patch.
But similar problem is possible with request_irq(): any locks taken from
irq handler could be vulnerable - especially with soft interrupts. This
patch fixes it by disabling local interrupts during handler's run. (It
seems, disabling softirqs should be enough, but it needs more checking
on possible races or other special cases).

Level type interrupts are resent by the interrupt hardware when they are
still active at irq_enable().
Suppress the resend mechanism for interrupts marked as level.

Commit 5a43a066b11ac2fe84cf67307f20b83bea390f83: "genirq: Allow fasteoi
handler to retrigger disabled interrupts" was erroneously applied to
handle_level_irq(). This added the irq retrigger / resend functionality
to the level irq handler.
Revert the offending bits.

This reverts commit 0fc4969b86. It was
always meant to be temporary, but it's generating more useless noise
than anything else, and we probably should never have done it in the
generic kernel (only had the people involved test it on their own).

Marcin Slusarz reported a ne2k-pci "hung network interface" regression.
delayed disable relies on the ability to re-trigger the interrupt in the
case that a real interrupt happens after the software disable was set.
In this case we actually disable the interrupt on the hardware level
_after_ it occurred.
On enable_irq, we need to re-trigger the interrupt. On i386 this relies
on a hardware resend mechanism (send_IPI_self()).
Actually we only need the resend for edge type interrupts. Level type
interrupts come back once enable_irq() re-enables the interrupt line.
I assume that the interrupt in question is level triggered because it is
shared and above the legacy irqs 0-15:
17: 12 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth1, eth0
Looking into the IO_APIC code, the resend via send_IPI_self() happens
unconditionally. So the resend is done for level and edge interrupts.
This makes the problem more mysterious.
The code in question lib8390.c does
disable_irq();
fiddle_with_the_network_card_hardware()
enable_irq();
The fiddle_with_the_network_card_hardware() might cause interrupts,
which are cleared in the same code path again,
Marcin found that when he disables the irq line on the hardware level
(removing the delayed disable) the card is kept alive.
So the difference is that we can get a resend on enable_irq, when an
interrupt happens during the time, where we are in the disabled region.
