Subject: [patch V6 03/16] genirq/proc: Utilize irq_desc::tot_count to avoid evaluation
Date: Sun, 17 May 2026 22:01:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260517194931.115522199@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260517194421.705253664@kernel.org
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>
Interrupts which are not marked per CPU increment not only the per CPU
statistics, but also the accumulation counter irq_desc::tot_count.
Change the counter to type unsigned long so it does not produce sporadic
zeros due to wrap arounds on 64-bit machines and do a quick check for non
per CPU interrupts. If the counter is zero, then simply emit a full set of
zero strings. That spares the evaluation of the per CPU counters completely
for interrupts with zero events.
