First of all, there isn't enough space as we have already proven (on the machines where it actually matters there just aren't enough bits), but doing this kind of stuff *optionally* is going to hurt even worse. Furthermore, this crap will break anyway the *next* time someone comes up with a new clever way to do interrupts -- and to truly get stable identifiers, we can't treat HyperTransport MSI as APICs anymore, yadda, yadda... If changing to non-numbers in /proc/interrupts will break userspace, then userspace will have to deal with a numeric token in /proc/interrupts which will have to be looked up elsewhere (perhaps in a sysfs directory) to get a more meaningful index. -hpa --
