rtl8187: fix regression on MIPS without coherent DMA 2014-04-01T23:58:52+00:00 Stanislaw Gruszka stf_xl@wp.pl 2014-02-10T21:38:28+00:00 5b9f9b8ecf9439b440d833329e0fb8c52cd5f245 commit b6213e413a4e0c66548153516b074df14f9d08e0 upstream. This patch fixes regression caused by commit a16dad77634 "MIPS: Fix potencial corruption". That commit fixes one corruption scenario in cost of adding another one, which actually start to cause crashes on Yeeloong laptop when rtl8187 driver is used. For correct DMA read operation on machines without DMA coherence, kernel have to invalidate cache, such it will refill later with new data that device wrote to memory, when that data is needed to process. We can only invalidate full cache line. Hence when cache line includes both dma buffer and some other data (written in cache, but not yet in main memory), the other data can not hit memory due to invalidation. That happen on rtl8187 where struct rtl8187_priv fields are located just before and after small buffers that are passed to USB layer and DMA is performed on them. To fix the problem we align buffers and reserve space after them to make them match cache line. This patch does not resolve all possible MIPS problems entirely, for that we have to assure that we always map cache aligned buffers for DMA, what can be complex or even not possible. But patch fixes visible and reproducible regression and seems other possible corruptions do not happen in practice, since Yeeloong laptop works stable without rtl8187 driver.

I think that it is safe doing so since the device interrupt will only be enabled after the init function succeed.

commit f78bccd79ba3cd9d9664981b501d57bdb81ab8a4 upstream.

rtl8192ce is disabling for too long the local interrupts during hw initiatialisation when performing scans

The observable symptoms in dmesg can be:

- underruns from ALSA playback
- clock freezes (tstamps do not change for several dmesg entries until irqs are finaly reenabled):

[  251.154656] PCM: Lost interrupts? [Q]-0 (stream=0, delta=15903, new_hw_ptr=293408, old_hw_ptr=277505)

The exact code flow that causes that is:

1. wpa_supplicant send a start_scan request to the nl80211 driver
2. mac80211 module call rtl_op_config with IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE
3.   rtl_ips_nic_on is called which disable local irqs
4.     rtl92c_phy_set_rf_power_state() is called
5.       rtl_ps_enable_nic() is called and hw_init()is executed and then the interrupts on the device are enabled

A good solution could be to refactor the code to avoid calling rtl92ce_hw_init() with the irqs disabled
but a quick and dirty solution that has proven to work is
to reenable the irqs during the function rtl92ce_hw_init().

I think that it is safe doing so since the device interrupt will only be enabled after the init function succeed.
