Linux kernel 软中断机制之软中断执行

软中断处理函数在函数__do_softirq()中被调用：

asmlinkage void __do_softirq(void)
{
 unsigned long end = jiffies + MAX_SOFTIRQ_TIME;
 unsigned long old_flags = current->flags;
 int max_restart = MAX_SOFTIRQ_RESTART;
 struct softirq_action *h;
 bool in_hardirq;
 __u32 pending;
 int softirq_bit;

 /*
  * Mask out PF_MEMALLOC s current task context is borrowed for the
  * softirq. A softirq handled such as network RX might set PF_MEMALLOC
  * again if the socket is related to swap
  */
 current->flags &= ~PF_MEMALLOC;
 pending = local_softirq_pending();
 account_irq_enter_time(current);
 __local_bh_disable_ip(_RET_IP_, SOFTIRQ_OFFSET);
 in_hardirq = lockdep_softirq_start();
restart:
 /* Reset the pending bitmask before enabling irqs */
 set_softirq_pending(0);
 local_irq_enable();
 h = softirq_vec;
 while ((softirq_bit = ffs(pending))) {
  unsigned int vec_nr;
  int prev_count;
  h += softirq_bit - 1;
  vec_nr = h - softirq_vec;
  prev_count = preempt_count();
  kstat_incr_softirqs_this_cpu(vec_nr);
  trace_softirq_entry(vec_nr);
  h->action(h);调用软中断处理函数
  trace_softirq_exit(vec_nr);
  if (unlikely(prev_count != preempt_count())) {
   pr_err("huh, entered softirq %u %s %p with preempt_count %08x, exited with %08x?\n",
          vec_nr, softirq_to_name[vec_nr], h->action,
          prev_count, preempt_count());
   preempt_count_set(prev_count);
  }
  h++;
  pending >>= softirq_bit;
 }
 rcu_bh_qs();
 local_irq_disable();
 pending = local_softirq_pending();
 if (pending) {
  if (time_before(jiffies, end) && !need_resched() && --max_restart)
      goto restart;
  wakeup_softirqd();
 }
 lockdep_softirq_end(in_hardirq);
 account_irq_exit_time(current);
 __local_bh_enable(SOFTIRQ_OFFSET);
 WARN_ON_ONCE(in_interrupt());
 tsk_restore_flags(current, old_flags, PF_MEMALLOC);
}
注意这里的对软中断处理线程的唤醒。
wakeup_softirqd();
static void wakeup_softirqd(void)
{
 /* Interrupts are disabled: no need to stop preemption */
 struct task_struct *tsk = __this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd);
 if (tsk && tsk->state != TASK_RUNNING)
  wake_up_process(tsk);
}
