[PATCH 0/3] Support managed interrupts for platform devices
From: John Garry
Date: Tue Oct 27 2020 - 08:14:17 EST
So far, managed interrupts are only used for PCI MSIs. This series add
platform device support for managed interrupts. Initially this topic was
discussed at [0].
The method to enable managed interrupts is to allocate all the IRQs for
the device, and then switch the interrupts to managed - this is done
through new function irq_update_affinity_desc().
API platform_get_irqs_affinity() is added as a helper to manage this work,
such that we don't need to export irq_update_affinity_desc() or
irq_create_affinity_masks().
For now, the HiSilicon SAS v2 hw driver is switched over. This is used
in the D05 dev board.
Performance gain observed for 6x SAS SSDs is ~357K -> 420K IOPs for fio read.
I hope - all going well - this series can go through the SCSI tree, since
the non-SCSI changes are additive, thanks!
