[PATCH v3] arm64: Support arch_irq_work_raise() via self IPIs

From: Larry Bassel
Date: Mon May 12 2014 - 11:49:08 EST


Support for arch_irq_work_raise() was missing from
arm64 (a prerequisite for FULL_NOHZ).

This patch is based on the arm32 patches ARM 7872/1
and 7887/1.

ARM: 7872/1: Support arch_irq_work_raise() via self IPIs

By default, IRQ work is run from the tick interrupt (see
irq_work_run() in update_process_times()). When we're in full
NOHZ mode, restarting the tick requires the use of IRQ work and
if the only place we run IRQ work is in the tick interrupt we
have an unbreakable cycle. Implement arch_irq_work_raise() via
self IPIs to break this cycle and get the tick started again.
Note that we implement this via IPIs which are only available on
SMP builds. This shouldn't be a problem because full NOHZ is only
supported on SMP builds anyway.

ARM: 7887/1: Don't smp_cross_call() on UP devices in arch_irq_work_raise()

If we're running a kernel compiled with SMP_ON_UP=y and the
hardware only supports UP operation there isn't any
smp_cross_call function assigned. Unfortunately, we call
smp_cross_call() unconditionally in arch_irq_work_raise() and
crash the kernel on UP devices. Check to make sure we're running
on an SMP device before calling smp_cross_call() here.
