From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2021 17:18:00 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 08/10] drm/i915/gt: Queue and wait for the irq_work item. Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/6.8/older/patches-6.8.2-rt11.tar.xz Disabling interrupts and invoking the irq_work function directly breaks on PREEMPT_RT. PREEMPT_RT does not invoke all irq_work from hardirq context because some of the user have spinlock_t locking in the callback function. These locks are then turned into a sleeping locks which can not be acquired with disabled interrupts. Using irq_work_queue() has the benefit that the irqwork will be invoked in the regular context. In general there is "no" delay between enqueuing the callback and its invocation because the interrupt is raised right away on architectures which support it (which includes x86). Use irq_work_queue() + irq_work_sync() instead invoking the callback directly.
