The support for misrouted IRQs is used on old / legacy systems and is not feasible on PREEMPT_RT. Polling for interrupts reduces the overall system performance. Additionally the interrupt latency depends on the polling frequency and delays are not desired for real time workloads. Disable IRQ polling on PREEMPT_RT and let the user know that it is not enabled. The compiler will optimize the real fixup/poll code out.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
