[PATCH v3 0/5] Support managed interrupts for platform devices

From: John Garry
Date: Wed Nov 25 2020 - 12:25:01 EST


So far, managed interrupts are only used for PCI MSIs. This series adds
platform device support for managed interrupts. Initially this topic was
discussed at [0].

The method to enable managed interrupts is to allocate a group of IRQs for
the device, and then switch the interrupts to managed - this is done
through new function irq_update_affinity_desc().

Function devm_platform_get_irqs_affinity() is added as a helper to manage
this work, such that we don't need to export irq_update_affinity_desc() or
irq_create_affinity_masks().

In the devm_platform_get_irqs_affinity() release call a new platform
method is used to "put" an irq. The reason for this is that per-irq
mapping (and irq_desc) needs to be recreated anew for re-probing the LLDD,
such that we don't attempt to reconfigure the managed or any other flag
for an irq_desc.

For now, the HiSilicon SAS v2 hw driver is switched over. This is used
in the D05 dev board.

Performance gain observed for 6x SAS SSDs is ~357K -> 420K IOPs for fio read.

Changes since v2:
- Update genirq change as follows:
- Handle when the irq is started, active, or already managed
- Reject update when CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_RESERVATION_MODE is set
- Revamp platform.c API as follows:
- Make it devm type
- Add platform_put_irq() and associated change in ACPI code to allow irq
resource to be reset
- Unmap irqs for driver removal
- Change API to accept min and max vectors
