There is a problem when a driver requests a shared interrupt line to run a
threaded handler on it without IRQF_ONESHOT set if that flag has been set
already for the IRQ in question by somebody else. Namely, the request
fails which usually leads to a probe failure even though the driver might
have worked just fine with IRQF_ONESHOT, but it does not want to use it by
default. Currently, the only way to handle this is to try to request the
IRQ without IRQF_ONESHOT, but with IRQF_PROBE_SHARED set and if this fails,
try again with IRQF_ONESHOT set. However, this is a bit cumbersome and not
very clean.
When commit 7a36b901a6eb ("ACPI: OSL: Use a threaded interrupt handler for
SCI") switched the ACPI subsystem over to using a threaded interrupt
handler for the SCI, it had to use IRQF_ONESHOT for it because that's
required due to the way the SCI handler works (it needs to walk all of the
enabled GPEs before the interrupt line can be unmasked). The SCI interrupt
line is not shared with other users very often due to the SCI handling
overhead, but on sone systems it is shared and when the other user of it
attempts to install a threaded handler, a flags mismatch related to
IRQF_ONESHOT may occur.
As it turned out, that happened to the pinctrl-amd driver and so commit
4451e8e8415e ("pinctrl: amd: Add IRQF_ONESHOT to the interrupt request")
attempted to address the issue by adding IRQF_ONESHOT to the interrupt
flags in that driver, but this is now causing an IRQF_ONESHOT-related
mismatch to occur on another system which cannot boot as a result of it.
Clearly, pinctrl-amd can work with IRQF_ONESHOT if need be, but it should
not set that flag by default, so it needs a way to indicate that to the
interrupt subsystem.
To that end, introdcuce a new interrupt flag, IRQF_COND_ONESHOT, which will
only have effect when the IRQ line is shared and IRQF_ONESHOT has been set
for it already, in which case it will be promoted to the latter.
This is sufficient for drivers sharing the interrupt line with the SCI as
it is requested by the ACPI subsystem before any drivers are probed, so
they will always see IRQF_ONESHOT set for the interrupt in question.

rcu_report_dead() and rcutree_migrate_callbacks() have their headers in
rcupdate.h while those are pure rcutree calls, like the other CPU-hotplug
functions.
Also rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() have different naming
conventions while they mirror each other's effects.
Fix the headers and propose a naming that relates both functions and
aligns with the prefix of other rcutree CPU-hotplug functions.

Specific stress involving frequent CPU-hotplug operations, such as
running rcutorture for example, may trigger the following message:
NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #02!!!"
This happens in the CPU-down hotplug process, after
CPUHP_AP_SMPBOOT_THREADS whose teardown callback parks ksoftirqd, and
before the target CPU shuts down through CPUHP_AP_IDLE_DEAD. In this
fragile intermediate state, softirqs waiting for threaded handling may be
forever ignored and eventually reported by the idle task as in the above
example.
However some vectors are known to be safe as long as the corresponding
subsystems have teardown callbacks handling the migration of their
events. The above error message reports pending timers softirq although
this vector can be considered as hotplug safe because the
CPUHP_TIMERS_PREPARE teardown callback performs the necessary migration
of timers after the death of the CPU. Hrtimers also have a similar
hotplug handling.
Therefore this error message, as far as (hr-)timers are concerned, can
be considered spurious and the relevant softirq vectors can be marked as
hotplug safe.

flush_smp_call_function_queue() invokes do_softirq() which is not available
on PREEMPT_RT. flush_smp_call_function_queue() is invoked from the idle
task and the migration task with preemption or interrupts disabled.
So RT kernels cannot process soft interrupts in that context as that has to
acquire 'sleeping spinlocks' which is not possible with preemption or
interrupts disabled and forbidden from the idle task anyway.
The currently known SMP function call which raises a soft interrupt is in
the block layer, but this functionality is not enabled on RT kernels due to
latency and performance reasons.
RT could wake up ksoftirqd unconditionally, but this wants to be avoided if
there were soft interrupts pending already when this is invoked in the
context of the migration task. The migration task might have preempted a
threaded interrupt handler which raised a soft interrupt, but did not reach
the local_bh_enable() to process it. The "running" ksoftirqd might prevent
the handling in the interrupt thread context which is causing latency
issues.
Add a new function which handles this case explicitely for RT and falls
back to do_softirq() on !RT kernels. In the RT case this warns when one of
the flushed SMP function calls raised a soft interrupt so this can be
investigated.

The following warning may appear while setting a CPU down:
NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #20!!!
The IRQ_POLL_SOFTIRQ vector can be raised during the hotplug cpu_down()
path after ksoftirqd is parked and before the CPU actually dies. However
this is handled afterward at the CPUHP_IRQ_POLL_DEAD stage where the
queue gets migrated.
Hence this warning can be considered spurious and the vector can join
the "hotplug-safe" list.

RCU_SOFTIRQ used to be special in that it could be raised on purpose
within the idle path to prevent from stopping the tick. Some code still
prevents from unnecessary warnings related to this specific behaviour
while entering in dynticks-idle mode.
However the nohz layout has changed quite a bit in ten years, and the
removal of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ has been the final straw to this
safe-conduct. Now the RCU_SOFTIRQ vector is expected to be raised from
sane places.
A remaining corner case is admitted though when the vector is invoked
in fragile hotplug path.

The discussion about removing the side effect of irq_set_affinity_hint() of
actually applying the cpumask (if not NULL) as affinity to the interrupt,
unearthed a few unpleasantries:
1) The modular perf drivers rely on the current behaviour for the very
wrong reasons.
2) While none of the other drivers prevents user space from changing
the affinity, a cursorily inspection shows that there are at least
expectations in some drivers.
#1 needs to be cleaned up anyway, so that's not a problem
#2 might result in subtle regressions especially when irqbalanced (which
nowadays ignores the affinity hint) is disabled.
Provide new interfaces:
irq_update_affinity_hint() - Only sets the affinity hint pointer
irq_set_affinity_and_hint() - Set the pointer and apply the affinity to
the interrupt
Make irq_set_affinity_hint() a wrapper around irq_apply_affinity_hint() and
document it to be phased out.

can be pulled into other trees.

Perf modules abuse irq_set_affinity_hint() to set the affinity of system
PMU interrupts just because irq_set_affinity() was not exported.
The fact that irq_set_affinity_hint() actually sets the affinity is a

To clean this up, export the real affinity setter.

The whole call to note_interrupt() can be avoided or return early when
interrupts would be marked accordingly. For IPI handlers which always
return HANDLED the whole procedure is pretty pointless to begin with.
Add a IRQF_NO_DEBUG flag and mark the interrupt accordingly if supplied
when the interrupt is requested.
When noirqdebug is set on the kernel commandline, then the interrupt is
marked unconditionally so that there is only one condition in the hotpath
to evaluate.

tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() spin waits for the TASKLET_STATE_SCHED bit in
the tasklet state to be cleared. This works on !RT nicely because the
corresponding execution can only happen on a different CPU.
On RT softirq processing is preemptible, therefore a task preempting the
softirq processing thread can spin forever.
Prevent this by invoking local_bh_disable()/enable() inside the loop. In
case that the softirq processing thread was preempted by the current task,
current will block on the local lock which yields the CPU to the preempted
softirq processing thread. If the tasklet is processed on a different CPU
then the local_bh_disable()/enable() pair is just a waste of processor
cycles.

tasklet_unlock_wait() spin waits for TASKLET_STATE_RUN to be cleared. This
is wasting CPU cycles in a tight loop which is especially painful in a
guest when the CPU running the tasklet is scheduled out.
tasklet_unlock_wait() is invoked from tasklet_kill() which is used in
teardown paths and not performance critical at all. Replace the spin wait
with wait_var_event().
There are no users of tasklet_unlock_wait() which are invoked from atomic
contexts. The usage in tasklet_disable() has been replaced temporarily with
the spin waiting variant until the atomic users are fixed up and will be
converted to the sleep wait variant later.

Many drivers don't want interrupts enabled automatically via request_irq().
So they are handling this issue by either way of the below two:
(1)
irq_set_status_flags(irq, IRQ_NOAUTOEN);
request_irq(dev, irq...);
(2)
request_irq(dev, irq...);
disable_irq(irq);
The code in the second way is silly and unsafe. In the small time gap
between request_irq() and disable_irq(), interrupts can still come.
The code in the first way is safe though it's subobtimal.
Add a new IRQF_NO_AUTOEN flag which can be handed in by drivers to
request_irq() and request_nmi(). It prevents the automatic enabling of the
requested interrupt/nmi in the same safe way as #1 above. With that the
various usage sites of #1 and #2 above can be simplified and corrected.

Add a function to allow the affinity of an interrupt be switched to
managed, such that interrupts allocated for platform devices may be
managed.
This new interface has certain limitations, and attempts to use it in the
following circumstances will fail:
- For when the kernel is configured for generic IRQ reservation mode (in
config GENERIC_IRQ_RESERVATION_MODE). The reason being that it could
conflict with managed vs. non-managed interrupt accounting.
- The interrupt is already started, which should not be the case during
init
- The interrupt is already configured as managed, which means double init

Nowadays, modern kernel subsystems that use callbacks pass the data
structure associated with a given callback as argument to the callback.
The tasklet subsystem remains one which passes an arbitrary unsigned
long to the callback function. This has several problems:
- This keeps an extra field for storing the argument in each tasklet
data structure, it bloats the tasklet_struct structure with a redundant
.data field
- No type checking can be performed on this argument. Instead of
using container_of() like other callback subsystems, it forces callbacks
to do explicit type cast of the unsigned long argument into the required
object type.
- Buffer overflows can overwrite the .func and the .data field, so
an attacker can easily overwrite the function and its first argument
to whatever it wants.
Add a new tasklet initialization API, via DECLARE_TASKLET() and
tasklet_setup(), which will replace the existing ones.
This work is greatly inspired by the timer_struct conversion series,
see commit e99e88a9d2b0 ("treewide: setup_timer() -> timer_setup()")
To avoid problems with both -Wcast-function-type (which is enabled in
the kernel via -Wextra is several subsystems), and with mismatched
function prototypes when build with Control Flow Integrity enabled,
this adds the "use_callback" member to let the tasklet caller choose
which union member to call through. Once all old API uses are removed,
this and the .data member will be removed as well. (On 64-bit this does
not grow the struct size as the new member fills the hole after atomic_t,
which is also "int" sized.)

The entry rework moved interrupt entry code from the irqentry to the
noinstr section which made the irqentry section empty.
This breaks boundary checks which rely on the __irqentry_text_start/end
markers to find out whether a function in a stack trace is
interrupt/exception entry code. This affects the function graph tracer and
filter_irq_stacks().
As the IDT entry points are all sequentialy emitted this is rather simple
to unbreak by injecting __irqentry_text_start/end as global labels.
To make this work correctly:
- Remove the IRQENTRY_TEXT section from the x86 linker script
- Define __irqentry so it breaks the build if it's used
- Adjust the entry mirroring in PTI
- Remove the redundant kprobes and unwinder bound checks

Error injection mechanisms need a half ways safe way to inject interrupts as
invoking generic_handle_irq() or the actual device interrupt handler
directly from e.g. a debugfs write is not guaranteed to be safe.
On x86 generic_handle_irq() is unsafe due to the hardware trainwreck which
is the base of x86 interrupt delivery and affinity management.
Move the irq debugfs injection code into a separate function which can be
used by error injection code as well.
The implementation prevents at least that state is corrupted, but it cannot
close a very tiny race window on x86 which might result in a stale and not
serviced device interrupt under very unlikely circumstances.
This is explicitly for debugging and testing and not for production use or
abuse in random driver code.

Introduce a new function, rearm_wake_irq(), allowing a wakeup IRQ
to be armed for systen wakeup detection again without running any
action handlers associated with it after it has been armed for
wakeup detection and triggered.
That is useful for IRQs, like ACPI SCI, that may deliver wakeup
as well as non-wakeup interrupts when armed for systen wakeup
detection. In those cases, it may be possible to determine whether
or not the delivered interrupt is a systen wakeup one without
running the entire action handler (or handlers, if the IRQ is
shared) for the IRQ, and if the interrupt turns out to be a
non-wakeup one, the IRQ can be rearmed with the help of the
new function.

The interrupt affinity spreading mechanism supports to spread out
affinities for one or more interrupt sets. A interrupt set contains one or
more interrupts. Each set is mapped to a specific functionality of a
device, e.g. general I/O queues and read I/O queus of multiqueue block
devices.
The number of interrupts per set is defined by the driver. It depends on
the total number of available interrupts for the device, which is
determined by the PCI capabilites and the availability of underlying CPU
resources, and the number of queues which the device provides and the
driver wants to instantiate.
The driver passes initial configuration for the interrupt allocation via a
pointer to struct irq_affinity.
Right now the allocation mechanism is complex as it requires to have a loop
in the driver to determine the maximum number of interrupts which are
provided by the PCI capabilities and the underlying CPU resources. This
loop would have to be replicated in every driver which wants to utilize
this mechanism. That's unwanted code duplication and error prone.
In order to move this into generic facilities it is required to have a
mechanism, which allows the recalculation of the interrupt sets and their
size, in the core code. As the core code does not have any knowledge about the
underlying device, a driver specific callback is required in struct
irq_affinity, which can be invoked by the core code. The callback gets the
number of available interupts as an argument, so the driver can calculate the
corresponding number and size of interrupt sets.
At the moment the struct irq_affinity pointer which is handed in from the
driver and passed through to several core functions is marked 'const', but for
the callback to be able to modify the data in the struct it's required to
remove the 'const' qualifier.
Add the optional callback to struct irq_affinity, which allows drivers to
recalculate the number and size of interrupt sets and remove the 'const'
qualifier.
For simple invocations, which do not supply a callback, a default callback
is installed, which just sets nr_sets to 1 and transfers the number of
spreadable vectors to the set_size array at index 0.
This is for now guarded by a check for nr_sets != 0 to keep the NVME driver
working until it is converted to the callback mechanism.
To make sure that the driver configuration is correct under all circumstances
the callback is invoked even when there are no interrupts for queues left,
i.e. the pre/post requirements already exhaust the numner of available
interrupts.
At the PCI layer irq_create_affinity_masks() has to be invoked even for the
case where the legacy interrupt is used. That ensures that the callback is
invoked and the device driver can adjust to that situation.
[ tglx: Fixed the simple case (no sets required). Moved the sanity check
for nr_sets after the invocation of the callback so it catches
broken drivers. Fixed the kernel doc comments for struct
irq_affinity and de-'This patch'-ed the changelog ]

be added to struct affinity_desc, which will be invoked by the core
code. The callback will get the number of available interupts as an
argument, so the driver can calculate the corresponding number and size
of interrupt sets.
To support this, two modifications for the handling of struct irq_affinity
are required:
1) The (optional) interrupt sets size information is contained in a
separate array of integers and struct irq_affinity contains a
pointer to it.
This is cumbersome and as the maximum number of interrupt sets is small,
there is no reason to have separate storage. Moving the size array into
struct affinity_desc avoids indirections and makes the code simpler.
2) At the moment the struct irq_affinity pointer which is handed in from
the driver and passed through to several core functions is marked
'const'.
With the upcoming callback to recalculate the number and size of
interrupt sets, it's necessary to remove the 'const'
qualifier. Otherwise the callback would not be able to update the data.
Implement #1 and store the interrupt sets size in 'struct irq_affinity'.
No functional change.

Devices which use managed interrupts usually have two classes of
interrupts:
- Interrupts for multiple device queues
- Interrupts for general device management
Currently both classes are treated the same way, i.e. as managed
interrupts. The general interrupts get the default affinity mask assigned
while the device queue interrupts are spread out over the possible CPUs.
Treating the general interrupts as managed is both a limitation and under
certain circumstances a bug. Assume the following situation:
default_irq_affinity = 4..7
So if CPUs 4-7 are offlined, then the core code will shut down the device
management interrupts because the last CPU in their affinity mask went
offline.
It's also a limitation because it's desired to allow manual placement of
the general device interrupts for various reasons. If they are marked
managed then the interrupt affinity setting from both user and kernel space
is disabled. That limitation was reported by Kashyap and Sumit.
Expand struct irq_affinity_desc with a new bit 'is_managed' which is set
for truly managed interrupts (queue interrupts) and cleared for the general
device interrupts.

The interrupt affinity management uses straight cpumask pointers to convey
the automatically assigned affinity masks for managed interrupts. The core
interrupt descriptor allocation also decides based on the pointer being non
NULL whether an interrupt is managed or not.
Devices which use managed interrupts usually have two classes of
interrupts:
- Interrupts for multiple device queues
- Interrupts for general device management
Currently both classes are treated the same way, i.e. as managed
interrupts. The general interrupts get the default affinity mask assigned
while the device queue interrupts are spread out over the possible CPUs.
Treating the general interrupts as managed is both a limitation and under
certain circumstances a bug. Assume the following situation:
default_irq_affinity = 4..7
So if CPUs 4-7 are offlined, then the core code will shut down the device
management interrupts because the last CPU in their affinity mask went
offline.
It's also a limitation because it's desired to allow manual placement of
the general device interrupts for various reasons. If they are marked
managed then the interrupt affinity setting from both user and kernel space
is disabled.
To remedy that situation it's required to convey more information than the
cpumasks through various interfaces related to interrupt descriptor
allocation.
Instead of adding yet another argument, create a new data structure
'irq_affinity_desc' which for now just contains the cpumask. This struct
can be expanded to convey auxilliary information in the next step.
No functional change, just preparatory work.
