From 0b8f1efad30bd58f89961b82dfe68b9edf8fd2ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yinghai Lu Date: Fri, 5 Dec 2008 18:58:31 -0800 Subject: sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes Impact: new feature Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case. To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of irq_desc pointers. When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc, this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls request_irq()). This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.
