PATCH 1/1 genirq: {en,dis}able_irq_wake() need refcounting too

It's not just "normal" mode operation that needs refcounting for the {en,dis}able_irq() calls ... "wakeup" mode calls need it too, for the very same reasons.

This patch adds that refcounting. I expect that some ARM drivers will be triggering the new warning, but this call isn't yet widely used. (Which is probably why the bug has lingered this long...)

- Dave

IRQs need refcounting and a state flag to track whether the the IRQ should be enabled or disabled as a "normal IRQ" source after a series of calls to disable_irq() and enable_irq(). For shared IRQs, the IRQ must be enabled so long as at least one driver needs it active.

Likewise, IRQs need the same support to track whether the IRQ should be enabled or disabled as a "wakeup event" source after a series of calls to enable_irq_wake() and disable_irq_wake(). For shared IRQs, the IRQ must be wakeup-enabled so long as at least one driver needs it.

But right now they don't have that refcounting ... which means sharing wakeup-capable IRQs can't work correctly in some configurations. This patch adds the refcount and flag mechanisms to set_irq_wake(), and a minimal description of what an irq wake mechanism is.

Drivers relying on the older (broken) "toggle" semantics will trigger a warning; that'll be a handful of drivers on ARM systems.

we should also add disable_irq_wake() / enable_irq_wake() APIs and start migrating most ARM users over to the new APIs, agreed? That makes the APIs more symmetric and the code more readable too.

That _is_ the API anyway. set_irq_wake() was never intended to be called directly from drivers.

doh - right. So the patch is the right thing to do :-)

Also note that genirq has a bigger problem to fry at the moment - it's currently broken for ARM SMP + hotplug CPU due to missing functionality (as in, the kernel doesn't even link.) Thomas has a patch which is going through the test mills at the moment.

Let's first get genirq to a point where it's a direct replacement for my IRQ subsystem before thinking about changing existing APIs (and thereby possibly introducing other breakage.)

note that the API change i suggested was a NOP operation :-) The APIs were already shaped that way. No need to worry.

see linux/interrupt.h:

/* IRQ wakeup (PM) control: */
extern int set_irq_wake(unsigned int irq, unsigned int on);

static inline int enable_irq_wake(unsigned int irq)

{
        return set_irq_wake(irq, 1);
}

static inline int disable_irq_wake(unsigned int irq)

{
        return set_irq_wake(irq, 0);
}

It's already there and ARM uses those functions :)

To recap, the driver code _is_ that symmetric, it's just the implementation that's asymmetric. That is, {en,dis}able_irq() are two separate routines, while {en,dis}able_irq_wake() are just wrap set_irq_wake().

I'll forward this patch to the the ARM kernel list, to help avoid surprises. There aren't many in-tree drivers using these calls.
