Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v3 01/14] genirq: Provide new interfaces for affinity hints
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2021 17:14:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210713211502.464259-2-nitesh@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210713211502.464259-1-nitesh@redhat.com>

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

The discussion about removing the side effect of irq_set_affinity_hint() of
actually applying the cpumask (if not NULL) as affinity to the interrupt,
unearthed a few unpleasantries:

  1) The modular perf drivers rely on the current behaviour for the very
     wrong reasons.

  2) While none of the other drivers prevents user space from changing
     the affinity, a cursorily inspection shows that there are at least
     expectations in some drivers.

#1 needs to be cleaned up anyway, so that's not a problem

#2 might result in subtle regressions especially when irqbalanced (which
   nowadays ignores the affinity hint) is disabled.

Provide new interfaces:

  irq_update_affinity_hint()  - Only sets the affinity hint pointer
  irq_set_affinity_and_hint() - Set the pointer and apply the affinity to
                                the interrupt

Make irq_set_affinity_hint() a wrapper around irq_apply_affinity_hint() and
document it to be phased out.
