The cmdq-sync interrupt is never going to be particularly useful, since for stage 1 DMA at least we'll often need to wait for sync completion within someone else's IRQ handler, thus have to implement polling anyway. Beyond that, the overhead of taking an interrupt, then still having to grovel around in the queue to figure out *which* sync command completed, doesn't seem much more attractive than simple polling either. Furthermore, if an implementation both has wired interrupts and supports MSIs, then we don't want to be taking the IRQ unnecessarily if we're using the MSI write to update memory. Let's just make life simpler by not even bothering to claim it in the first place. Signed-off-by: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
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.
