[RFC PATCH] genirq: introduce handle_fasteoi_edge_irq flow handler

From: Yipeng Zou
Date: Thu Mar 09 2023 - 21:15:07 EST


Recently, We have a LPI migration issue on the ARM SMP platform.

For example, NIC device generates MSI and sends LPI to CPU0 via ITS,
meanwhile irqbalance running on CPU1 set irq affinity of NIC to CPU1,
the next interrupt will be sent to CPU2, due to the state of irq is
still in progress, kernel does not end up performing irq handler on
CPU2, which results in some userland service timeouts, the sequence
of events is shown as follows:

NIC CPU0 CPU1

Generate IRQ#1 READ_IAR
Lock irq_desc
Set IRQD_IN_PROGRESS
Unlock irq_desc
Lock irq_desc
Change LPI Affinity
Unlock irq_desc
Call irq_handler
Generate IRQ#2
READ_IAR
Lock irq_desc
Check IRQD_IN_PROGRESS
Unlock irq_desc
Return from interrupt#2
Lock irq_desc
Clear IRQD_IN_PROGRESS
Unlock irq_desc
return from interrupt#1

For this scenario, The IRQ#2 will be lost. This does cause some exceptions.

For further information, see [1].

This patch introduced a new flow handler which combines fasteoi and edge
type as a workaround.
An additional loop will be executed if the IRQS_PENDING has been setup.
