[PATCH v3 2/4] genirq: Inform handler about line sharing state

From: Jan Kiszka
Date: Mon Dec 13 2010 - 18:00:59 EST


From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This enabled interrupt handlers to retrieve the current line sharing state via
the new interrupt status word so that they can adapt to it.

The switch from shared to exclusive is generally uncritical and can thus be
performed on demand. However, preparing a line for shared mode may require
preparational steps of the currently registered handler. It can therefore
request an ahead-of-time notification via IRQF_ADAPTIVE. The notification
consists of an exceptional handler invocation with IRQS_MAKE_SHAREABLE set in
the status word.
