When re-enabling interrupts we have code to handle edge sensitive
decrementers by resetting the decrementer to 1 whenever it is negative.
If interrupts were disabled long enough that the decrementer wrapped to
positive we do nothing. This means interrupts can be delayed for a long
time until it finally goes negative again.
While we hope interrupts are never be disabled long enough for the
decrementer to go positive, we have a very good test team that can
drive any kernel into the ground. The softlockup data we get back
from these fails could be seconds in the future, completely missing
the cause of the lockup.
We already keep track of the timebase of the next event so use that
to work out if we should trigger a decrementer exception.

The radix-tree code uses call_rcu when freeing internal elements.
We must protect against the elements being freed while we traverse
the tree, even if the returned pointer will still be valid.
While preparing a patch to expand the context in which
irq_radix_revmap_lookup will be called, I realized that the
radix tree was not locked.
When asked
For a normal call_rcu usage, is it allowed to read the structure in
irq_enter / irq_exit, without additional rcu_read_lock? Could an
element freed with call_rcu advance with the cpu still between
irq_enter/irq_exit (and irq_disabled())?
Paul McKenney replied:
Absolutely illegal to do so. OK for call_rcu_sched(), but a
flaming bug for call_rcu().
And thank you very much for finding this!!!
Further analysis:
In the current CONFIG_TREE_RCU implementation. CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
(and CONFIG_TINY_PREEMPT_RCU) uses explicit counters.
These counters are reflected from per-CPU to global in the
scheduling-clock-interrupt handler, so disabling irq does prevent the
grace period from completing. But there are real-time implementations
(such as the one use by the Concurrent guys) where disabling irq
does -not- prevent the grace period from completing.
While an alternative fix would be to switch radix-tree to rcu_sched, I
don't want to audit the other users of radix trees (nor put alternative
freeing in the library). The normal overhead for rcu_read_lock and
unlock are a local counter increment and decrement.
This does not show up in the rcu lockdep because in 2.6.34 commit
2676a58c98 (radix-tree: Disable RCU lockdep checking in radix tree)
deemed it too hard to pass the condition of the protecting lock
to the library.

Look up the descriptor and check that it is found in handle_one_irq

We need check irq_to_desc finds the descriptor to avoid a NULL
pointer dereference. It could have failed because the number from
ppc_md.get_irq was above NR_IRQS, or various exceptional conditions
with sparse irqs (eg race conditions while freeing an irq if its was
not shutdown in the controller).

Consolidate the mux and demux of ipi messages into smp.c and call
a new smp_ops callback to actually trigger the ipi.
The powerpc architecture code is optimised for having 4 distinct
ipi triggers, which are mapped to 4 distinct messages (ipi many, ipi
single, scheduler ipi, and enter debugger). However, several interrupt
controllers only provide a single software triggered interrupt that
can be delivered to each cpu. To resolve this limitation, each smp_ops
implementation created a per-cpu variable that is manipulated with atomic
bitops. Since these lines will be contended they are optimialy marked as
shared_aligned and take a full cache line for each cpu. Distro kernels
may have 2 or 3 of these in their config, each taking per-cpu space
even though at most one will be in use.
This consolidation removes smp_message_recv and replaces the single call
actions cases with direct calls from the common message recognition loop.
The complicated debugger ipi case with its muxed crash handling code is
moved to debug_ipi_action which is now called from the demux code (instead
of the multi-message action calling smp_message_recv).
I put a call to reschedule_action to increase the likelyhood of correctly
merging the anticipated scheduler_ipi() hook coming from the scheduler
tree; that single required call can be inlined later.
The actual message decode is a copy of the old pseries xics code with its
memory barriers and cache line spacing, augmented with a per-cpu unsigned
long based on the book-e doorbell code. The optional data is set via a
callback from the implementation and is passed to the new cause-ipi hook
along with the logical cpu number. While currently only the doorbell
implemntation uses this data it should be almost zero cost to retrieve and
pass it -- it adds a single register load for the argument from the same
cache line to which we just completed a store and the register is dead
on return from the call. I extended the data element from unsigned int
to unsigned long in case some other code wanted to associate a pointer.
The doorbell check_self is replaced by a call to smp_muxed_ipi_resend,
conditioned on the CPU_DBELL feature. The ifdef guard could be relaxed
to CONFIG_SMP but I left it with BOOKE for now.
Also, the doorbell interrupt vector for book-e was not calling irq_enter
and irq_exit, which throws off cpu accounting and causes code to not
realize it is running in interrupt context. Add the missing calls.

Fix the IRQ flag handling naming. In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:
local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
...
and under the other configuration, it maps:
raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
...
This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.
Change this to have the arch provide:
flags = arch_local_save_flags()
flags = arch_local_irq_save()
arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
arch_local_irq_disable()
arch_local_irq_enable()
arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
arch_irqs_disabled()
arch_safe_halt()
Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:
raw_local_save_flags(flags)
raw_local_irq_save(flags)
raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
raw_local_irq_disable()
raw_local_irq_enable()
raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
raw_irqs_disabled()
raw_safe_halt()
with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:
local_save_flags(flags)
local_irq_save(flags)
local_irq_restore(flags)
local_irq_disable()
local_irq_enable()
irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
irqs_disabled()
safe_halt()
with tracing included if enabled.
The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

Anton Blanchard found that large POWER systems would occasionally
crash in the exception exit path when profiling with perf_events.
The symptom was that an interrupt would occur late in the exit path
when the MSR[RI] (recoverable interrupt) bit was clear. Interrupts
should be hard-disabled at this point but they were enabled. Because
the interrupt was not recoverable the system panicked.
The reason is that the exception exit path was calling
perf_event_do_pending after hard-disabling interrupts, and
perf_event_do_pending will re-enable interrupts.
The simplest and cleanest fix for this is to use the same mechanism
that 32-bit powerpc does, namely to cause a self-IPI by setting the
decrementer to 1. This means we can remove the tests in the exception
exit path and raw_local_irq_restore.
This also makes sure that the call to perf_event_do_pending from
timer_interrupt() happens within irq_enter/irq_exit. (Note that
calling perf_event_do_pending from timer_interrupt does not mean that
there is a possible 1/HZ latency; setting the decrementer to 1 ensures
that the timer interrupt will happen immediately, i.e. within one
timebase tick, which is a few nanoseconds or 10s of nanoseconds.)

big_irq_lock needs to be a real spinlock in RT. Convert it to
raw_spinlock.

I often get asked if BAD interrupts are really bad. On some boxes (eg
IBM machines running a hypervisor) there are valid cases where are
presented with an interrupt that is not for us. These cases are common
enough to show up as thousands of BAD interrupts a day.
Tone them down by calling them spurious. Since they can be a significant cause
of OS jitter, we may as well log them per cpu so we know where they are
occurring.
