2008-10-16irq: replace loop with nr_irqs with for_each_irq_descYinghai Lu
There are a handful of loops that go from 0 to nr_irqs and use get_irq_desc() on them. These would allocate all the irq_desc entries, regardless of the need for them. Use the smarter for_each_irq_desc() iterator that will only iterate over the present ones. v2: make sure arch without GENERIC_HARDIRQS work too Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-02genirq: record trigger typeDavid Brownell
Genirq hasn't previously recorded the trigger type used by any given IRQ, although some irq_chip support has done so. That data can be useful when troubleshooting. This patch records it in the relevant irq_desc.status bits, and improves consistency between the two driver-visible calls affected: - Make set_irq_type() usage match request_irq() usage: * IRQ_TYPE_NONE should be a NOP; succeed, so irq_chip methods won't have to handle that case any more (many do it wrong). * IRQ_TYPE_PROBE is ignored; any buggy out-of-tree callers might need to switch over to the real IRQ probing code. * emit the same diagnostics (from shared utility code) - Their kerneldoc now reflects usage: * request_irq() flags include IRQF_TRIGGER_* to specify active edge(s)/level ... docs previously omitted that * set_irq_type() is declared in <linux/irq.h> so callers should use the (bit-equivalent) IRQ_TYPE_* symbols there Also: adds a warning about shared IRQs that don't end up using the requested trigger mode; and fix an unrelated "sparse" warning.

2006-06-29[PATCH] genirq: more verbose debugging on unexpected IRQ vectorsIngo Molnar
One frequent sign of IRQ handling bugs is the appearance of unexpected vectors. Print out all the IRQ state in that case. We dont want this patch upstream, but it is useful during initial testing.

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. Let it rip!
