There is no need to install a chained handler for this hardware. This is a plain x86 IOAPIC interrupt which is handled by the core code perfectly fine. There is nothing special about demultiplexing these gpio interrupts which justifies a custom hack. Replace it by a plain old interrupt handler installed with request_irq. That makes the code agnostic about the underlying primary interrupt hardware. The overhead for this is minimal, but it gives us the advantage of accounting, balancing and to detect interrupt storms. gpio interrupts are not really that performance critical.

The set_type function of the pmic irq chip is a horrible hack. It schedules work because it cannot access the scu chip from the set_type function. That breaks the assumption, that the type is set after set_type has returned. irq_chips provide buslock functions to avoid the above. Convert the driver to use the proper model.

commit 456dc301([PATCH] intel_pmic_gpio: modify EOI handling following change of kernel irq subsystem) changes - desc->chip->eoi(irq); + + if (desc->chip->irq_eoi) + desc->chip->irq_eoi(irq_get_irq_data(irq)); + else + dev_warn(pg->chip.dev, "missing EOI handler for irq %d\n", irq); With the following explanation: "Latest kernel has many changes in IRQ subsystem and its interfaces, like adding irq_eoi" for struct irq_chip, this patch will make it support both the new and old interface." This is completely bogus. #1) The changelog does not match the patch at all #2) This driver relies on the assumption that it sits behind an eoi capable interrupt line. If the implementation of the underlying chip changes from eoi to irq_eoi then this driver has to follow that change and not add a total bogosity. Remove the sillyness and retrieve the interrupt data from irq_desc directly. No need to got through circles to look it up.

Since checkin ebba638a we call verify_cpu even in 32-bit mode. Unfortunately, calling a function means using the stack, and the stack pointer was not initialized in the 32-bit setup code! This code initializes the stack pointer, and simplifies the interface slightly since it is easier to rely on just a pointer value rather than a descriptor; we need to have different values for the segment register anyway. This retains start_stack as a virtual address, even though a physical address would be more convenient for 32 bits; the 64-bit code wants the other way around...

Some experiment-based action to prevent my 8168 chipsets locking-up hard in the irq handler under load (pktgen ~1Mpps). Apparently a reset is not always mandatory (is it at all ?). - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12 - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_25 Missed ~55% packets. Note: - this is an old SiS 965L motherboard - the 8168 chipset emits (lots of) control frames towards the sender - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_26 The chipset does not go into a frenzy of mac control pause when it crashes yet but it can still be crashed. It needs more work. Signed-off-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> Cc: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Cc: Hayes <hayeswang@realtek.com>

I found that one of the 8168c chipsets (concretely XID 1c4000c0) starts generating RxFIFO overflow errors. The result is an infinite loop in interrupt handler as the RxFIFOOver is handled only for ...MAC_VER_11. With the workaround everything goes fine.

Calling local_bh_enable() will want to actually start processing softirqs, which isn't a good idea since this can get called with IRQs disabled. Cure this by using _local_bh_enable() which doesn't start processing softirqs, and use raw_local_irq_save() to avoid any softirqs from happening without letting lockdep think IRQs are in fact disabled.

As reported by Flavio Leitner, there is no synchronization to protect NIU's get_stats method from seeing a NULL pointer in either np->rx_rings or np->tx_rings. In fact, as far as ->ndo_get_stats is concerned, these values are set completely asynchronously. Flavio attempted to fix this using a RW semaphore, which in fact works most of the time. However, dev_get_stats() can be invoked from non-sleepable contexts in some cases, so this fix doesn't work in all cases. So instead, control the visibility of the np->{rx,tx}_ring pointers when the device is being brough up, and use properties of the device down sequence to our advantage. In niu_get_stats(), return immediately if netif_running() is false. The device shutdown sequence first marks the device as not running (by clearing the __LINK_STATE_START bit), then it performans a synchronize_rcu() (in dev_deactive_many()), and then finally it invokes the driver ->ndo_stop() method. This guarentees that all invocations of niu_get_stats() either see netif_running() as false, or they see the channel pointers before ->ndo_stop() clears them out. If netif_running() is true, protect against startup races by loading the np->{rx,tx}_rings pointer into a local variable, and punting if it is NULL. Use ACCESS_ONCE to prevent the compiler from reloading the pointer on us. Also, during open, control the order in which the pointers and the ring counts become visible globally using SMP write memory barriers. We make sure the np->num_{rx,tx}_rings value is stable and visible before np->{rx,tx}_rings is. Such visibility control is not necessary on the niu_free_channels() side because of the RCU sequencing that happens during device down as described above. We are always guarenteed that all niu_get_stats calls are finished, or will see netif_running() false, by the time ->ndo_stop is invoked.
