Commit d2348fb6fdc6 ("tick: Dynamically set broadcast irq affinity")
adds one execllent feature CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ to let the core set the
interrupt affinity of the broadcast interrupt to the cpu which has the
earliest expiry time. This patch adds CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ flag to
avoid unnecessary wakeups and IPIs when the dw_apb_timer is used as
broadcast timer.Signed-off-by: Jisheng Zhang <[email protected]> --- drivers/clocksource/dw_apb_timer.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/clocksource/dw_apb_timer.c b/drivers/clocksource/dw_apb_timer.c index 35a8809..3381644 100644 --- a/drivers/clocksource/dw_apb_timer.c +++ b/drivers/clocksource/dw_apb_timer.c @@ -232,7 +232,8 @@ dw_apb_clockevent_init(int cpu, const char *name, unsigned rating, &dw_ced->ced); dw_ced->ced.min_delta_ns = clockevent_delta2ns(5000, &dw_ced->ced); dw_ced->ced.cpumask = cpumask_of(cpu); - dw_ced->ced.features = CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_PERIODIC | CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_ONESHOT; + dw_ced->ced.features = CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_PERIODIC | + CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_ONESHOT | CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ; dw_ced->ced.set_mode = apbt_set_mode; dw_ced->ced.set_next_event = apbt_next_event; dw_ced->ced.irq = dw_ced->timer.irq; -- 2.1.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
