note_interrupt increments desc->irq_count for each interrupt even for
percpu interrupt handlers, even when they are handled successfully. This
causes cacheline bouncing and limits scalability.

Instead of incrementing irq_count every time, only start incrementing it
after seeing an unhandled irq, which should avoid the cache line
bouncing in the common path.

This actually should give better consistency in handling misbehaving
irqs too, because instead of the first unhandled irq arriving at an
arbitrary point in the irq_count cycle, its arrival will begin the
irq_count cycle.

Cédric reports the result of his IPI throughput test:

I've applied that because it makes sense in general, but I think the whole
call to note_interrupt() can be avoided or return early when interrupts
would be marked accordingly. For IPI handlers which always return
HANDLED the whole procedure is pretty pointless to begin with.

Something like the completely untested below.

Thanks,

Shouldn't it be '||' instead  ?

We could test irq_settings_no_debug() directly under handle_nested_irq() 
and handle_irq_event_percpu() to avoid calling note_interrupt(), just 
like we do for noirqdebug.

It could. But that's intentionally '|'. Why?

Because that lets the compiler merge the bit checks into one and
therefore spares one conditional branch.

We can do that, but then we should not just make it:

   if (!irqnodebug && !irq_settings_no_debug(desc))
   	note_interrupt(...);

Instead have only one condition:

   if (!irq_settings_no_debug(desc))
   	note_interrupt(...);

See the uncompiled delta patch below.

I merged this second part with the first and gave IRQF_NO_DEBUG a try 
on P8 and P9 systems and all looked fine. I should send both patches 
after IRQF_NO_AUTOEN is merged in mainline.     

Thanks,

Does having that NODEBUG flag set on the IPI irqs make a measurable
difference or is it just too small to matter?

It does not add much benefits on the 2s and 4s systems but I will give it 
a try on bigger ones when I can grab them. Then we can decide if it is 
worth merging. 

Thanks,

Here are some ipistorm results on a P10 system with 12 activated chips, 
each with ~120 HW threads. The kernel is a 5.12 plus extras : 

  - XIVE IPI IRQ domain patchset (merged in 5.13-rc1)
  - MSI IRQ domain pachset (should not have any impact)
  - your IRQF_NO_DEBUG patch.

There is some slight improvement on the first 4 chips but it gets
better when we reach the fifth which requires an extra hop on the
bus. On 12 chips, we are close to an extra 9%. 

Given these results, I think it would good to have the IRQF_NO_DEBUG 
flag. 

Thanks,

C.

Subject: [PATCH] genirq: Add a IRQF_NO_DEBUG flag
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The whole call to note_interrupt() can be avoided or return early when
interrupts would be marked accordingly. For IPI handlers which always
return HANDLED the whole procedure is pretty pointless to begin with.

Add a IRQF_NO_DEBUG flag.

genirq: Add a IRQF_NO_DEBUG flag

The whole call to note_interrupt() can be avoided or return early when
interrupts would be marked accordingly. For IPI handlers which always
return HANDLED the whole procedure is pretty pointless to begin with.

Add a IRQF_NO_DEBUG flag and mark the interrupt accordingly if supplied
when the interrupt is requested.

When noirqdebug is set on the kernel commandline, then the interrupt is
marked unconditionally so that there is only one condition in the hotpath
to evaluate.
