Hi,
here is a patch-set against tip/x86/apic to fix an initialization order
problem with the IRQ remapping code. The problem is in the ordering of
the irq_remapping_prepare and irq_remapping_supported functions.
Currently the call-order is irq_remapping_prepare ->
irq_remapping_supported, so that 'prepare' can succeed but 'supported'
fails, so that interrupt remapping gets initialized but not enabled.
This causes a broken interrupt setup on affected systems (machines with
an Intel IOMMU without, or broken, IRQ remapping support). The result
are lost interrupts and a non-bootable system.
Both functions do checks whether IRQ remapping can be enabled on the
machine. The reason for this is that some checks rely on
dmar_table_init() and thus have to be done in irq_remapping_prepare().
This patch-set moves all these checks into the irq_remapping_prepare()
path with the right ordering and removes the irq_remapping_supported()
function and its call-backs. This fixes the initializion order problem
and simplifies the exported API from the IOMMU code.
Please review.
Thanks,
Joerg
