Subject: [PATCH v2 3/9] x86/irq: remove unused vectors from <asm/irq_vectors.h>
Date: Fri, 14 May 2021 18:43:55 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210515014400.2999028-4-hpa@zytor.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210515014400.2999028-1-hpa@zytor.com>

From: "H. Peter Anvin (Intel)" <hpa@zytor.com>

UV_BAU_MESSAGE is defined but not used anywhere in the
kernel. Presumably this is a stale vector number that can be
reclaimed.

MCE_VECTOR is not an actual vector: #MC is an exception, not an
interrupt vector, and as such is correctly described as
X86_TRAP_MC. MCE_VECTOR is not used anywhere is the kernel.

Note that NMI_VECTOR *is* used; specifically it is the vector number
programmed into the APIC LVT when an NMI interrupt is configured. At
the moment it is always numerically identical to X86_TRAP_NMI, that is
not necessarily going to be the case indefinitely.
