Subject: Re: [PATCH V2] x86/irq: Cure live lock in fixup_irqs()
Date: Thu, 17 Mar 2016 14:14:40 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160317211439.GA21968@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.DEB.2.11.1603140931430.3657@nanos>

This version also passes repeated iterations of:

# echo 0 | tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online
# echo 1 | tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online


Some of the time taken in the offline cycle may be
a more than O(N) chasing of IRQs onto an ever smaller
available set of online cpus.  There are over 4000
lines like this:

[  218.220045] Broke affinity for irq 66

on the console for each offline pass.

Also a couple of these:

[  221.951171] IRQ fixup: irq 68 move in progress, old vector 79

for each pass offlining all but one cpu.
