[PATCH 1/8] x86/irq: Ensure initial PIR loads are performed exactly once

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

 



Ensure the PIR is read exactly once at the start of handle_pending_pir(),
to guarantee that checking for an outstanding posted interrupt in a given
chuck doesn't reload the chunk from the "real" PIR.  Functionally, a reload
is benign, but it would defeat the purpose of pre-loading into a copy.
