In the kdump scenario mentioned below, we can have a case where the device using level triggered interrupt will not generate any interrupts in the kdump kernel. 1. IO-APIC sends a level triggered interrupt to the CPU's local APIC. 2. Kernel crashed before the CPU services this interrupt, leaving the remote-IRR in the IO-APIC set. 3. kdump kernel boot sequence does clear_IO_APIC() as part of IO-APIC initialization. But this fails to reset remote-IRR bit of the IO-APIC RTE as the remote-IRR bit is read-only. 4. Device using that level triggered entry can't generate any more interrupts because of the remote-IRR bit. In clear_IO_APIC_pin(), check if the remote-IRR bit is set and if so do an explicit attempt to clear it (by doing EOI write on modern io-apic's and changing trigger mode to edge/level on older io-apic's). Also before doing the explicit EOI to the io-apic, ensure that the trigger mode is indeed set to level. This will enable the explicit EOI to the io-apic to reset the remote-IRR bit.
