* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

* The ixp2000 driver for the enp2611 was developed on a board withLennert Buytenhek2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | three gigabit ports, but some enp2611 models only have two ports (and only one onboard PM3386.) The current driver assumes there are always three ports and so it doesn't work on the two-port version of the board at all. This patch adds a bit of logic to the enp2611 driver to limit the number of ports to 2 if the second PM3386 isn't detected.

* [PATCH] intel ixp2000 network driverLennert Buytenhek2005-11-18
The way the hardware and firmware work is that there is one shared RX queue and IRQ for a number of different network interfaces. Due to this, we would like to process received packets for every interface in the same NAPI poll handler, so we need a pseudo-device to schedule polling on. What the driver currently does is that it always schedules polling for the first network interface in the list, and processes packets for every interface in the poll handler for that first interface -- however, this scheme breaks down if the first network interface happens to not be up, since netif_rx_schedule_prep() checks netif_running(). sky2 apparently has the same issue, and Stephen Hemminger suggested a way to work around this: create a variant of netif_rx_schedule_prep() that does not check netif_running(). I implemented this locally and called it netif_rx_schedule_prep_notup(), and it seems to work well, but it's something that probably not everyone would be happy with. The ixp2000 is an ARM CPU with a high-speed network interface in the CPU itself (full duplex 4Gb/s or 10Gb/s depending on the IXP model.) The CPU package also contains 8 or 16 (again depending on the IXP model) 'microengines', which are somewhat primitive but very fast and efficient processor cores which can be used to offload various things from the main CPU. This driver makes the high-speed network interface in the CPU visible and usable as a regular linux network device. Currently, it only supports the Radisys ENP2611 IXP board, but adding support for other board types should be fairly easy.
