Subject: UIO RTE_INTR_MODE_NONE issue.
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2015 03:23:42 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BY2PR0801MB1606DD23FD54CAF51FE60159EF970@BY2PR0801MB1606.namprd08.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
Hi:
If INTX fails, igb_uio falls back to running without IRQ ( refer to the implementation in igbuio_pci_probe).
On QEMU 0.12.0, the INTX seems to have broken, and the intr_mode falls to RTE_INTR_MODE_NONE
However this sets the udev->info.irq = 0;
Setting of udev->info.irq to '0' does not work on 2.6.36 and lower kernels, because the UIO_IRQ_NONE is defined as
#define UIO_IRQ_NONE -2
Because the udev->info.irq is set to '0', on 2.6.36 and below implementation, the __uio_register_device invokes request_irq
if (idev->info->irq >= 0) {
ret = request_irq(idev->info->irq, uio_interrupt,
and it fails with the following dump
IRQ handler type mismatch for IRQ 0
current handler: timer

igb_uio 0000:00:03.0: PCI INT A disabled
igb_uio: probe of 0000:00:03.0 failed with error -16
On kernel 2.6.37 and above, the definition is,
#define UIO_IRQ_NONE 0
And the check is,
if (info->irq && (info->irq != UIO_IRQ_CUSTOM)) {
ret = request_irq(info->irq, uio_interrupt,
info->irq_flags, info->name, idev);
So to handle the 'RTE_INTR_MODE_NONE' in these different kernel versions,
We are proposing the following change to the code in igbuio_pci_probe function,
case RTE_INTR_MODE_NONE:
udev->mode = RTE_INTR_MODE_NONE;
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 37)
udev->info.irq = -2;
#else
udev->info.irq = 0;
#endif
Please let us know your opinion. If it is correct, we will go ahead and generate a patch for review.
Regards,
Prathap
