    s390: convert interrupt handling to use generic hardirq · 1f44a225
    Martin Schwidefsky authored
    With the introduction of PCI it became apparent that s390 should
    convert to generic hardirqs as too many drivers do not have the
    correct dependency for GENERIC_HARDIRQS. On the architecture
    level s390 does not have irq lines. It has external interrupts,
    I/O interrupts and adapter interrupts. This patch hard-codes all
    external interrupts as irq #1, all I/O interrupts as irq #2 and
    all adapter interrupts as irq #3
    
    . The additional information from
    the lowcore associated with the interrupt is stored in the
    pt_regs of the interrupt frame, where the interrupt handler can
    pick it up. For PCI/MSI interrupts the adapter interrupt handler
    scans the relevant bit fields and calls generic_handle_irq with
    the virtual irq number for the MSI interrupt.
