Subject: [patch V5 10/15] genirq: Cache the condition for /proc/interrupts exposure
Date: Wed, 01 Apr 2026 23:52:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260401201348.694692490@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260401195625.213446764@kernel.org

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>

show_interrupts() evaluates a boatload of conditions to establish whether
it should expose an interrupt in /proc/interrupts or not.

That can be simplified by caching the condition in an internal status flag,
which is updated when one of the relevant inputs changes.

The irq_desc::kstat_irq check is dropped because visible interrupt
descriptors always have a valid pointer.

As a result the number of instructions and branches for reading
/proc/interrupts is reduced significantly.
