Merge branch 'x86-apic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update provides a major overhaul of the APIC initialization and
vector allocation code:
- Unification of the APIC and interrupt mode setup which was
scattered all over the place and was hard to follow. This also
distangles the timer setup from the APIC initialization which
brings a clear separation of functionality.
Great detective work from Dou Lyiang!
- Refactoring of the x86 vector allocation mechanism. The existing
code was based on nested loops and rather convoluted APIC callbacks
which had a horrible worst case behaviour and tried to serve all
different use cases in one go. This led to quite odd hacks when
supporting the new managed interupt facility for multiqueue devices
and made it more or less impossible to deal with the vector space
exhaustion which was a major roadblock for server hibernation.
Aside of that the code dealing with cpu hotplug and the system
vectors was disconnected from the actual vector management and
allocation code, which made it hard to follow and maintain.
Utilizing the new bitmap matrix allocator core mechanism, the new
allocator and management code consolidates the handling of system
vectors, legacy vectors, cpu hotplug mechanisms and the actual
allocation which needs to be aware of system and legacy vectors and
hotplug constraints into a single consistent entity.
This has one visible change: The support for multi CPU targets of
interrupts, which is only available on a certain subset of
CPUs/APIC variants has been removed in favour of single interrupt
targets. A proper analysis of the multi CPU target feature revealed
that there is no real advantage as the vast majority of interrupts
end up on the CPU with the lowest APIC id in the set of target CPUs
anyway. That change was agreed on by the relevant folks and allowed
to simplify the implementation significantly and to replace rather
fragile constructs like the vector cleanup IPI with straight
forward and solid code.
Furthermore this allowed to cleanly separate the allocation details
for legacy, normal and managed interrupts:
* Legacy interrupts are not longer wasting 16 vectors
unconditionally
* Managed interrupts have now a guaranteed vector reservation, but
the actual vector assignment happens when the interrupt is
requested. It's guaranteed not to fail.
* Normal interrupts no longer allocate vectors unconditionally
when the interrupt is set up (IO/APIC init or MSI(X) enable).
The mechanism has been switched to a best effort reservation
mode. The actual allocation happens when the interrupt is
requested. Contrary to managed interrupts the request can fail
due to vector space exhaustion, but drivers must handle a fail
of request_irq() anyway. When the interrupt is freed, the vector
is handed back as well.
This solves a long standing problem with large unconditional
vector allocations for a certain class of enterprise devices
which prevented server hibernation due to vector space
exhaustion when the unused allocated vectors had to be migrated
to CPU0 while unplugging all non boot CPUs.
The code has been equipped with trace points and detailed debugfs
information to aid analysis of the vector space"
