![]() Pull x96 apic updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Updates for the x86 APIC interrupt handling and APIC timer: - Fix a long standing issue with spurious interrupts which was caused by the big vector management rework a few years ago. Robert Hodaszi provided finally enough debug data and an excellent initial failure analysis which allowed to understand the underlying issues. This contains a change to the core interrupt management code which is required to handle this correctly for the APIC/IO_APIC. The core changes are NOOPs for most architectures except ARM64. ARM64 is not impacted by the change as confirmed by Marc Zyngier. - Newer systems allow to disable the PIT clock for power saving causing panic in the timer interrupt delivery check of the IO/APIC when the HPET timer is not enabled either. While the clock could be turned on this would cause an endless whack a mole game to chase the proper register in each affected chipset. These systems provide the relevant frequencies for TSC, CPU and the local APIC timer via CPUID and/or MSRs, which allows to avoid the PIT/HPET based calibration. As the calibration code is the only usage of the legacy timers on modern systems and is skipped anyway when the frequencies are known already, there is no point in setting up the PIT and actually checking for the interrupt delivery via IO/APIC. To achieve this on a wide variety of platforms, the CPUID/MSR based frequency readout has been made more robust, which also allowed to remove quite some workarounds which turned out to be not longer required. Thanks to Daniel Drake for analysis, patches and verification" * 'x86-apic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/irq: Seperate unused system vectors from spurious entry again x86/irq: Handle spurious interrupt after shutdown gracefully x86/ioapic: Implement irq_get_irqchip_state() callback genirq: Add optional hardware synchronization for shutdown genirq: Fix misleading synchronize_irq() documentation genirq: Delay deactivation in free_irq() x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on modern chipsets x86/apic: Use non-atomic operations when possible x86/apic: Make apic_bsp_setup() static x86/tsc: Set LAPIC timer period to crystal clock frequency x86/apic: Rename 'lapic_timer_frequency' to 'lapic_timer_period' x86/tsc: Use CPUID.0x16 to calculate missing crystal frequency |
