Managed interrupts need to reserve interrupt vectors permanently, but as long as the interrupt is deactivated, the vector should not be active. Reserve a new system vector, which can be used to initially initialize MSI/DMAR/IOAPIC entries. In that situation the interrupts are disabled in the corresponding MSI/DMAR/IOAPIC devices. So the vector should never be sent to any CPU. When the managed interrupt is started up, a real vector is assigned from the managed vector space and configured in MSI/DMAR/IOAPIC. This allows a clear separation of inactive and active modes and simplifies the final decisions whether the global vector space is sufficient for CPU offline operations. The vector space can be reserved even on offline CPUs and will survive CPU offline/online operations.

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.
