rapidio/tsi721_dma: fix failure to obtain transaction descriptor

2014-08-07T21:30:25+00:00

commit 0193ed8225e1a79ed64632106ec3cc81798cb13c upstream.

This is a bug fix for the situation when function tsi721_desc_get() fails
to obtain a free transaction descriptor.

The bug usually results in a memory access crash dump when data transfer
scatter-gather list has more entries than size of hardware buffer
descriptors ring.  This fix ensures that error is properly returned to a
caller instead of an invalid entry.

This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.5.

rapidio/tsi721: fix tasklet termination in dma channel release

2014-03-24T04:38:09+00:00

commit 04379dffdd4da820d51a1566ad2e86f3b1ad97ed upstream.

This patch is a modification of the patch originally proposed by
Xiaotian Feng : https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/413
This new version disables DMA channel interrupts and ensures that the
tasklet wil not be scheduled again before calling tasklet_kill().

Unfortunately the updated patch was not released at that time due to
planned rework of Tsi721 mport driver to use threaded interrupts (which
has yet to happen).  Recently the issue was reported again:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/19/762.

Description from the original Xiaotian's patch:

 "Some drivers use tasklet_disable in device remove/release process,
  tasklet_disable will inc tasklet->count and return.  If the tasklet is
  not handled yet under some softirq pressure, the tasklet will be
  placed on the tasklet_vec, never have a chance to be excuted.  This
  might lead to a heavy loaded ksoftirqd, wakeup with pending_softirq,
  but tasklet is disabled.  tasklet_kill should be used in this case."

This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.5.

rapidio/tsi721: fix bug in MSI interrupt handling

2013-05-24T23:22:51+00:00

Fix bug in MSI interrupt handling which causes loss of event
notifications.

Typical indication of lost MSI interrupts are stalled message and
doorbell transfers between RapidIO endpoints.  To avoid loss of MSI
interrupts all interrupts from the device must be disabled on entering
the interrupt handler routine and re-enabled when exiting it.
Re-enabling device interrupts will trigger new MSI message(s) if Tsi721
registered new events since entering interrupt handler routine.

This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.2.

rapidio: add enumeration/discovery start from user space

2013-05-24T23:22:50+00:00

Add RapidIO enumeration/discovery start from user space.  User space
start allows to defer RapidIO fabric scan until the moment when all
participating endpoints are initialized avoiding mandatory synchronized
start of all endpoints (which may be challenging in systems with large
number of RapidIO endpoints).

rapidio: make enumeration/discovery configurable

2013-05-24T23:22:50+00:00

Systems that use RapidIO fabric may need to implement their own
enumeration and discovery methods which are better suitable for needs of
a target application.

The following set of patches is intended to simplify process of
introduction of new RapidIO fabric enumeration/discovery methods.

The first patch offers ability to add new RapidIO enumeration/discovery
methods using kernel configuration options.  This new configuration
option mechanism allows to select statically linked or modular
enumeration/discovery method(s) from the list of existing methods or use
external module(s).

This patch also updates the currently existing enumeration/discovery
code to be used as a statically linked or modular method.

The corresponding configuration option is named "Basic
enumeration/discovery" method.  This is the only one configuration
option available today but new methods are expected to be introduced
after adoption of provided patches.

The second patch address a long time complaint of RapidIO subsystem
users regarding fabric enumeration/discovery start sequence.  Existing
implementation offers only a boot-time enumeration/discovery start which
requires synchronized boot of all endpoints in RapidIO network.  While
it works for small closed configurations with limited number of
endpoints, using this approach in systems with large number of endpoints
is quite challenging.

To eliminate requirement for synchronized start the second patch
introduces RapidIO enumeration/discovery start from user space.

For compatibility with the existing RapidIO subsystem implementation,
automatic boot time enumeration/discovery start can be configured in by
specifying "rio-scan.scan=1" command line parameter if statically linked
basic enumeration method is selected.

This patch:

Rework to implement RapidIO enumeration/discovery method selection
combined with ability to use enumeration/discovery as a kernel module.

This patch adds ability to introduce new RapidIO enumeration/discovery
methods using kernel configuration options.  Configuration option
mechanism allows to select statically linked or modular
enumeration/discovery method from the list of existing methods or use
external modules.  If a modular enumeration/discovery is selected each
RapidIO mport device can have its own method attached to it.

The existing enumeration/discovery code was updated to be used as
statically linked or modular method.  This configuration option is named
"Basic enumeration/discovery" method.

Several common routines have been moved from rio-scan.c to make them
available to other enumeration methods and reduce number of exported
symbols.

Merge tag 'driver-core-3.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2012-12-11T21:13:55+00:00

Pull driver core updates from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here's the large driver core updates for 3.8-rc1.

  The biggest thing here is the various __dev* marking removals.  This
  is going to be a pain for the merge with different subsystem trees, I
  know, but all of the patches included here have been ACKed by their
  various subsystem maintainers, as they wanted them to go through here.

  If this is too much of a pain, I can pull all of them out of this tree
  and just send you one with the other fixes/updates and then, after
  3.8-rc1 is out, do the rest of the removals to ensure we catch them
  all, it's up to you.  The merges should all be trivial, and Stephen
  has been doing them all in linux-next for a few weeks now quite
  easily.

  Other than the __dev* marking removals, there's nothing major here,
  some firmware loading updates and other minor things in the driver
  core.

  All of these have (much to Stephen's annoyance), been in linux-next
  for a while.
