Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

iIDMA (Intelligent Interleaved Direct Memory Access) allows for
the HBA hardware to send FC frames at the rate at which they can
be received by a target device. By taking advantage of the
higher link rate, the HBA can maximize bandwidth utilization in a
heterogeneous multi-speed SAN.
Within a fabric topology, port speed detection is done via a Name
Server command (GFPN_ID) followed by a Fabric Management command
(GPSC). In an FCAL/N2N topology, port speed is based on the HBA
link-rate.

A target can LOGO an initiator at any time (i.e. during I/O,
due to a controller hicup, or as a simple authentication
mechanism after an initial CDB command), when this occurs,
the driver attempts to relogin (PLOGI) to the device via the
DPC thread. Add code to make the appropriate upcall to the
FC transport layer (fc_remote_port_add()) upon successful
completion of the PLOGI.

The driver can typically detect port-loss during an
interrupt context (i.e. via interrogation of a status IOCB's
completion status [CS_PORT_LOGGED_OUT]. Due to the calling
requirements of the fc_rport APIs, the driver would defer
removal of the device to the default workqueue. If the
work-item was preceded by an event which caused the port to
obtain visibility (relogin successful, target re-logged into
the topology), deferred removal could inadvertently drop the
rport. The code also no longer defers removal via the
default workqueue, instead opting for use of the driver's
own DPC thread.

Given the semantic changes in both the device-model and
fc-transport APIs, the driver's handling of port-type RSCNs
via a series of ADISCs and PLOGIs can cause series of
badness ranging from unexpectedly device loss to devices not
being discovered.
In the interim, disable (via a module-parameter) this
feature and allow RSCN management to continue to occur
within the driver's DPC thread.

ISP23xx and ISP24xx chips have support for an adaptive
method of posting SCSI command completions for multiple SCSI
commands during a single system interrupt.
SCSI commands are placed on the system response queue
without interrupting the host until 1) a delay timer
expires; or 2) a SCSI command completes with an error.
As long as the host software (qla2xxx) services the response
queue for completions (this polling is done during
queuecommand()) within the 'delay timer' period, the
firmware will not generate system interrupt.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
