[PATCH] xen/events: Always allocate legacy interrupts on PV guests

[PATCH] xen/events: Always allocate legacy interrupts on PV guests

[Boris Ostrovsky]

After commit 8c058b0b9c34 ("x86/irq: Probe for PIC presence before
allocating descs for legacy IRQs") early_irq_init() will no longer
preallocate descriptors for legacy interrupts if PIC does not
exist, which is the case for Xen PV guests.

Therefore we may need to allocate those descriptors ourselves.

I realized that I neglected to add ARM64 maintainers here. Adding them now.

(And this also need an ACK/NACK from Russell)

I realized that I neglected to add ARM64 maintainers here. Adding them now.

(And this also need an ACK/NACK from Russell)

[PATCH] xen/events: Always allocate legacy interrupts on PV guests

[Boris Ostrovsky]

After commit 8c058b0b9c34 ("x86/irq: Probe for PIC presence before
allocating descs for legacy IRQs") early_irq_init() will no longer
preallocate descriptors for legacy interrupts if PIT does not
exist.

Therefore we need to allocate those descriptors for PV guests
ourselves.

Wouldn't it be better to write it as
 if (gsi < nr_legacy_irqs()) ?

I think it's possible to have PIC-less HVM guests in future (btw, what
about HVMlite?). I see nr_legacy_irqs() is x86-only but it can easily be
defined to NR_IRQS_LEGACY on other arches.

I don't think so: on PV we end up setting legacy_pic to null_legacy_pic 
in probe_8259A() and that will make nr_legacy_irqs() return 0.

Yes, HVMlite (or however we will end up calling it) will allow these 
sorts of thing. But HVMlite is not supported yet at all. And it's x86 only.

Yes, so the condition will always be false for PV and it equals to
xen_hvm_domain() or am I missng something?

Yes, so the condition will always be false for PV and it equals to
xen_hvm_domain() or am I missng something?

Oh, I see what you are saying. Yes, it would be cleaner.

Right. David, can you fix this before committing?

I don't think so: on PV we end up setting legacy_pic to null_legacy_pic 
in probe_8259A() and that will make nr_legacy_irqs() return 0.

Yes, HVMlite (or however we will end up calling it) will allow these 
sorts of thing. But HVMlite is not supported yet at all. And it's x86 only.

[PATCH] xen/events: Always allocate legacy interrupts on PV guests

[Boris Ostrovsky]

After commit 8c058b0b9c34 ("x86/irq: Probe for PIC presence before
allocating descs for legacy IRQs") early_irq_init() will no longer
preallocate descriptors for legacy interrupts if PIT does not
exist.

Therefore we need to allocate those descriptors for PV guests
ourselves.
