mainlining shenanigans
0d3f54257d
There is currently no way to evaluate the effective affinity mask of a given interrupt. Many irq chips allow only a single target CPU or a subset of CPUs in the affinity mask. Updating the mask at the time of setting the affinity to the subset would be counterproductive because information for cpu hotplug about assigned interrupt affinities gets lost. On CPU hotplug it's also pointless to force migrate an interrupt, which is not targeted at the CPU effectively. But currently the information is not available. Provide a seperate mask to be updated by the irq_chip->irq_set_affinity() implementations. Implement the read only proc files so the user can see the effective mask as well w/o trying to deduce it from /proc/interrupts.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
