From da7ed9f98f6f3f18664f8ab24303f9428b9d78f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vivek Goyal Date: Sat, 25 Mar 2006 16:31:16 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: timer interrupt lockup due to pending interrupt o check_timer() routine fails while second kernel is booting after a crash on an opetron box. Problem happens because timer vector (0x31) seems to be locked. o After a system crash, it is not safe to service interrupts any more, hence interrupts are disabled. This leads to pending interrupts at LAPIC. LAPIC sends these interrupts to the CPU during early boot of second kernel. Other pending interrupts are discarded saying unexpected trap but timer interrupt is serviced and CPU does not issue an LAPIC EOI because it think this interrupt came from i8259 and sends ack to 8259. This leads to vector 0x31 locking as LAPIC does not clear respective ISR and keeps on waiting for EOI. o This patch issues extra EOI for the pending interrupts who have ISR set. o Though today only timer seems to be the special case because in early boot it thinks interrupts are coming from i8259 and uses mask_and_ack_8259A() as ack handler and does not issue LAPIC EOI. But probably doing it in generic manner for all vectors makes sense.
