In the IPI delivery slow path (NMI delivery) we retry the ICR read to check for delivery completion a limited number of times. [ The reason for the limited retries is that some of the places where it is used (cpu boot, kdump, etc) IPI delivery might not succeed (due to a firmware bug or system crash, for example) and in such a case it is better to give up and resume execution of other code. ] This patch adds a new entry to /proc/interrupts, RTR, which tells user space the number of times we retried the ICR read in the IPI delivery slow path. This should give some insight into how well the APIC message delivery hardware is working - if the counts are way too large then we are hitting a (very-) slow path way too often.
