Subject: [PATCH] I/O APIC: Timer through 8259A revamp
There is some seemingly unnecessary cruft accumulated in the 8254 timer
setup path for the I/O APIC. Some attempts have been made to cater for
broken BIOSes reporting the ExtINTA I/O APIC pin cascaded from the master
8259A as the native timer interrupt input, which interfere with the setup
sequence in a non-obvious way and require a pair of additional kernel
command-line parameters.
I think this is unnecessary. All the bits are already in place. With
the removal of AEOI bits for non-i82489DX systems the whole setup can be
simplified. Here is a set of changes that reuse the existing code for
potentially broken systems. The observation is broken systems do not have
a notion of ExtINTA pins, so only one pin/apic pair will be determined as
useful for the timer interrupt. Therefore it should be safe to select
this single pin/apic to test both directly and through the 8259A.
This change implements this approach by copying timer pin information
found to the other pin if one has been found only. This way both tests
are always performed. The timer input of the 8259A is carefully unmasked
if needed only and masked again if found unneeded. This is because some
systems seem sensitive for the master 8259A interrupt being active even if
all the APIC inputs this line is wired to are masked.
The "disable_8254_timer" and "enable_8254_timer" kernel parameters are
removed as no longer needed.

---
It works for my system, but it definitely requires much, much more
testing. The patch depends on patch-2.6.26-rc1-20080505-timer_ack-1 sent
earlier.
Of course these "if (pin? != -1)" statements are useless (though
harmless) now, but I think that change deserves a separate patch not to
obfuscate changes to code which is obscure enough already.
