Failing to allocate the affinity mask of an interrupt descriptor fails the

always available whenever the related interrupt objects are alive, such as
the kthread handler.
Therefore remove the superfluous check since it is merely a historical
leftover. Get rid also of the comments above it that are obsolete and
useless.

When a cpuset isolated partition is created / updated or destroyed, the
interrupt threads are affined blindly to all the non-isolated CPUs. This
happens without taking into account the interrupt threads initial affinity
that becomes ignored.
For example in a system with 8 CPUs, if an interrupt and its kthread are
initially affine to CPU 5, creating an isolated partition with only CPU 2
inside will eventually end up affining the interrupt kthread to all CPUs
but CPU 2 (that is CPUs 0,1,3-7), losing the kthread preference for CPU 5.
Besides the blind re-affining, this doesn't take care of the actual low
level interrupt which isn't migrated. As of today the only way to isolate
non managed interrupts, along with their kthreads, is to overwrite their
affinity separately, for example through /proc/irq/
To avoid doing that manually, future development should focus on updating
the interrupt's affinity whenever cpuset isolated partitions are updated.
In the meantime, cpuset shouldn't fiddle with interrupt threads directly.
To prevent from that, set the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag to them.
This is done through kthread_bind_mask() by affining them initially to all
possible CPUs as at that point the interrupt is not started up which means
the affinity of the hard interrupt is not known. The thread will adjust
that once it reaches the handler, which is guaranteed to happen after the
initial affinity of the hard interrupt is established.

Crystal reports that the PCIe Advanced Error Reporting driver gets stuck
in an infinite loop on PREEMPT_RT:
Both the primary interrupt handler aer_irq() as well as the secondary
handler aer_isr() are forced into threads with identical priority.
Crystal writes that on the ARM system in question, the primary handler
has to clear an error in the Root Error Status register...
"before the next error happens, or else the hardware will set the
Multiple ERR_COR Received bit. If that bit is set, then aer_isr()
can't rely on the Error Source Identification register, so it scans
through all devices looking for errors -- and for some reason, on
this system, accessing the AER registers (or any Config Space above
0x400, even though there are capabilities located there) generates
an Unsupported Request Error (but returns valid data). Since this
happens more than once, without aer_irq() preempting, it causes
another multi error and we get stuck in a loop."
The issue does not show on non-PREEMPT_RT because the primary handler
runs in hardirq context and thus can preempt the threaded secondary
handler, clear the Root Error Status register and prevent the secondary
handler from getting stuck.
Emulate the same behavior on PREEMPT_RT by assigning a lower default
priority to the secondary handler if the primary handler is forced into
a thread.

Interrupt sharing for percpu-devid interrupts is forbidden, and for good
reasons. These are interrupts generated *from* a CPU and handled by itself
(timer, for example). Nobody in their right mind would put two devices on
the same pin (and if they have, they get to keep the pieces...).
But this also prevents more benign cases, where devices are connected
to groups of CPUs, and for which the affinities are not overlapping.
Effectively, the only thing they share is the interrupt number, and
nothing else.
Tweak the definition of IRQF_SHARED applied to percpu_devid interrupts to
allow this particular use case. This results in extra validation at the
point of the interrupt being setup and freed, as well as a tiny bit of
extra complexity for interrupts at handling time (to pick the correct
irqaction).

Commit 8589e325ba ("genirq/manage: Rework irq_set_irq_wake()") updated
the irq_set_irq_wake() to use the new guards for locking the interrupt
descriptor.
However, in doing so it inadvertently changed irq_set_irq_wake() such that
the 'chip_bus_lock' is no longer acquired. This has caused system suspend
tests to fail on some Tegra platforms.
Fix this by correcting the guard used in irq_set_irq_wake() to ensure the
'chip_bus_lock' is held.

Kunkun Jiang reports that for a workload involving the simultaneous startup
of a large number of VMs (for a total of about 200 vcpus), a lot of CPU
time gets spent on spinning on the tmp_mask_lock that exists as a static
raw spinlock in irq_do_set_affinity(). This lock protects a global cpumask
(tmp_mask) that is used as a temporary variable to compute the resulting
affinity.
While this is triggered by KVM issuing a irq_set_affinity() call each time
a vcpu is about to execute, it is obvious that having a single global
resource is not very scalable.
Since a cpumask can be a fairly large structure on systems with a high core
count, a stack allocation is not really appropriate. Instead, turn the
global cpumask into a per-CPU variable, removing the need for locking
altogether as the code is executed with preemption and interrupts disabled.

irq_restore_affinity_of_irq() restarts managed interrupts unconditionally
when the first CPU in the affinity mask comes online. That's correct during
normal hotplug operations, but not when resuming from S3 because the
drivers are not resumed yet and interrupt delivery is not expected by them.
Skip the startup of suspended interrupts and let resume_device_irqs() deal
with restoring them. This ensures that irqs are not delivered to drivers
during the noirq phase of resuming from S3, after non-boot CPUs are brought
back online.

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 7a36b901a6 ("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
4451e8e841 ("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.

The affinity setting of interrupt threads happens in the context of the
thread when the thread is woken up by an hard interrupt. As this can be an
arbitrary after changing the affinity, the thread can become runnable on an
isolated CPU and cause isolation disruption.
Avoid this by checking the set affinity request in wait_for_interrupt() and
waking the threads immediately when the affinity is modified.
Note that this is of the most benefit on systems where the interrupt
affinity itself does not need to be deferred to the interrupt handler, but
even where that's not the case, the total dirsuption will be less.

There is a possibility of deadlock if synchronize_hardirq() is called
when the nested threaded interrupt is active. The following scenario
was observed on a uniprocessor PREEMPT_NONE system:
Thread 1 Thread 2
handle_nested_thread()
Set INPROGRESS
Call ->thread_fn()
thread_fn goes to sleep
free_irq()
__synchronize_hardirq()
Busy-loop forever waiting for INPROGRESS
to be cleared
The INPROGRESS flag is only supposed to be used for hard interrupt
handlers. Remove the incorrect usage in the nested threaded interrupt
case and instead re-use the threads_active / wait_for_threads mechanism
to wait for nested threaded interrupts to complete.

For interrupts with secondary threads, the affinity is applied when the
thread is created but if the interrupts affinity is changed later only
the primary thread is updated.

With the introduction of threaded interrupt handlers, it is virtually
never safe to call disable_irq() from non-premptible context.
Thus: Update the documentation, add an explicit might_sleep() to catch any
offenders. This is more obvious and straight forward than the implicit
might_sleep() check deeper down in the disable_irq() call chain.

A kernel hang can be observed when running setserial in a loop on a kernel
with force threaded interrupts. The sequence of events is:
setserial
open("/dev/ttyXXX")
request_irq()
do_stuff()
-> serial interrupt
-> wake(irq_thread)
desc->threads_active++;
close()
free_irq()
kthread_stop(irq_thread)
synchronize_irq() <- hangs because desc->threads_active != 0
The thread is created in request_irq() and woken up, but does not get on a
CPU to reach the actual thread function, which would handle the pending
wake-up. kthread_stop() sets the should stop condition which makes the
thread immediately exit, which in turn leaves the stale threads_active
count around.
This problem was introduced with commit 519cc8652b, which addressed a
interrupt sharing issue in the PCIe code.
Before that commit free_irq() invoked synchronize_irq(), which waits for
the hard interrupt handler and also for associated threads to complete.
To address the PCIe issue synchronize_irq() was replaced with
__synchronize_hardirq(), which only waits for the hard interrupt handler to
complete, but not for threaded handlers.
This was done under the assumption, that the interrupt thread already
reached the thread function and waits for a wake-up, which is guaranteed to
be handled before acting on the stop condition. The problematic case, that
the thread would not reach the thread function, was obviously overlooked.
Make sure that the interrupt thread is really started and reaches
thread_fn() before returning from __setup_irq().
This utilizes the existing wait queue in the interrupt descriptor. The
wait queue is unused for non-shared interrupts. For shared interrupts the
usage might cause a spurious wake-up of a waiter in synchronize_irq() or the
completion of a threaded handler might cause a spurious wake-up of the
waiter for the ready flag. Both are harmless and have no functional impact.

Although setting the affinity of an interrupt to a set of CPUs that doesn't
have any online CPU is generally frowned apon, there are a few limited
cases where such affinity is set from a CPUHP notifier, setting the
affinity to a CPU that isn't online yet.
The saving grace is that this is always done using the 'force' attribute,
which gives a hint that the affinity setting can be outside of the online
CPU mask and the callsite set this flag with the knowledge that the
underlying interrupt controller knows to handle it.
This restores the expected behaviour on Marek's system.
