[PATCH -rt][RESEND] fix preempt hardirqs on OMAP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This should fix hardirq threading when the chained handler disables an interrupt 
while setting IRQ_PENDING. Which happens on ARM OMAP. It also has the effect of 
re-running the interrupt on IRQ_PENDING, which would normally be handled inside
the chained handler. Since this happens inside a thread the chained handler will
just wake up the thread multiple times, leaving the thread to actually rerun the
interrupt.
