[PATCH][RFC] ixp2000 microengine thread interrupt driver

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

 



(please CC me on replies)

Hi all,

Attached is a driver that allows userspace to handle microengine
interrupts on ixp2000 network processors.

The driver creates a misc char device, /dev/ixp2000_thd.  Reading this
device will block until a microengine interrupt has arrived.  The device
can also be poll()ed, which does what one would expect.

The code is written so as to minimise CSR reads and writes.  It does
perform a few extra writes here and there to mask pending interrupts
until userspace has had a chance to dequeue them (i.e. the NAPI way of
interrupt handling), but this gives a dramatic reduction in interrupt
rate under high load and prevents interrupt livelock, so it's worth it.

Comments?


cheers,
Lennert
