2008-10-31ieee1394: raw1394: fix possible deadlock in multithreaded clientsStefan Richter
Regression in 2.6.28-rc1: When I added the new state_mutex which prevents corruption of raw1394's internal state when accessed by multithreaded client applications, the following possible though highly unlikely deadlock slipped in: Thread A: Thread B: - acquire mmap_sem - raw1394_write() or raw1394_ioctl() - raw1394_mmap() - acquire state_mutex - acquire state_mutex - copy_to/from_user(), possible page fault: acquire mmap_sem The simplest fix is to use mutex_trylock() instead of mutex_lock() in raw1394_mmap(). This changes the behavior under contention in a way which is visible to userspace clients. However, since multithreaded access was entirely buggy before state_mutex was added and libraw1394's documentation advised application programmers to use a handle only in a single thread, this change in behaviour should not be an issue in practice at all. Since we have to use mutex_trylock() in raw1394_mmap() regardless whether /dev/raw1394 was opened with O_NONBLOCK or not, we now use mutex_trylock() unconditionally everywhere for state_mutex, just to have consistent behavior.

2008-10-15ieee1394: raw1394: make write() thread-safeStefan Richter
Application programs should use a libraw1394 handle only in a single thread. The raw1394 driver was apparently relying on this, because it did nothing to protect its fi->state variable from corruption due to concurrent accesses. We now serialize the fi->state accesses. This affects the write() path. We re-use the state_mutex which was introduced to protect fi->iso_state accesses in the ioctl() path. These paths and accesses are independent of each other, hence separate mutexes could be used. But I don't see much benefit in that. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
2008-10-15ieee1394: raw1394: narrow down the state_mutex protected regionStefan Richter
Refactor the ioctl dispatcher in order to move a fraction of it out of the section which is serialized by fi->state_mutex. This is not so much about performance but more about self-documentation: The mutex_lock()/ mutex_unlock() calls are now closer to the data accesses which the mutex protects, i.e. to the iso_state switch.

2008-10-15ieee1394: raw1394: replace BKL by local mutex, make ioctl() and mmap() ↵Stefan Richter
thread-safe This removes the last usage of the Big Kernel Lock from the ieee1394 stack, i.e. from raw1394's (unlocked_)ioctl and compat_ioctl. The ioctl()s don't need to take the BKL, but they need to be serialized per struct file *. In particular, accesses to ->iso_state need to be serial. We simply use a blocking mutex for this purpose because libraw1394 does not use O_NONBLOCK. In practice, there is no lock contention anyway because most if not all libraw1394 clients use a libraw1394 handle only in a single thread. mmap() also accesses ->iso_state. Until now this was unprotected against concurrent changes by ioctls. Fix this bug while we are at it. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

2008-04-25ieee1394: rawiso: requeue packet for transmission after skipped cyclePieter Palmers
As it seems, some host controllers have issues that can cause them to skip cycles now and then when using large packets. I suspect that this is due to DMA not succeeding in time. If the transmit fifo can't contain more than one packet (big packets), the DMA should provide a new packet each cycle (125us). I am under the impression that my current PCI express test system can't guarantee this. In any case, the patch tries to provide a workaround as follows: The DMA program descriptors are modified such that when an error occurs, the DMA engine retries the descriptor the next cycle instead of stalling. This way no data is lost. The side effect of this is that packets are sent with one cycle delay. This however might not be that much of a problem for certain protocols (e.g. AM824). If they use padding packets for e.g. rate matching they can drop one of those to resync the streams. The amount of skips between two userspace wakeups is counted. This number is then propagated to userspace through the upper 16 bits of the 'dropped' parameter. This allows unmodified userspace applications due to the following: 1) libraw simply passes this dropped parameter to the user application 2) the meaning of the dropped parameter is: if it's nonzero, something bad has happened. The actual value of the parameter at this moment does not have a specific meaning. A libraw client can then retrieve the number of skipped cycles and account for them if needed.

These drivers don't need to match any unit_directory type device. They just need the id_table for module autoloading per module alias. Not binding any of these drivers allows special-purpose drivers with similar or same IDs to bind to devices.

2007-07-10ieee1394: remove old isochronous ABIStefan Richter
Based on patch "the scheduled removal of RAW1394_REQ_ISO_{SEND,LISTEN}" from Adrian Bunk, November 20 2006. This patch also removes the underlying facilities in ohci1394 and disables them in pcilynx. That is, hpsb_host_driver.devctl() and hpsb_host_driver.transmit_packet() are no longer used for iso reception and transmission. Since video1394 and dv1394 only work with ohci1394 and raw1394's rawiso interface has never been implemented in pcilynx, pcilynx is now no longer useful for isochronous applications. raw1394 will still handle the request types but will complete the requests with errors that indicate API version conflicts.

* write(fd, buf, 52) from 32bit app was returning 56. Most of callers did not care, but some (arm registration) did, and anyway it looks bad if request for writing 52 bytes returns 56. And returning sizeof anything in 'int' is not good as well. So all functions now return '0' instead of sizeof(struct raw1394_request) on success, and write() itself provides correct return value (it just returns value it was asked to write on success as raw1394 does not do any partial writes at all). * Related to this was problem that write() could have returned 0 when kernel state would become corrupted and moved to different state than opened/initialized/connected. Now it returns -EBADFD which seemed appropriate.

2006-07-03[PATCH] ieee1394: raw1394: remove redundant counting semaphoreStefan Richter
An already existing wait queue replaces raw1394's complete_sem which was maintained in parallel to the wait queue. The role of the semaphore's counter is taken over by a direct check of what was really counted: The presence of items in the list of completed requests. Notes: - raw1394_release() sleeps uninterruptibly until all requests were completed. This is the same behaviour as before the patch. - The macros wait_event and wait_event_interruptible are called with a condition argument which has a side effect, i.e. manipulation of the requests list. This side effect happens only if the condition is true. The patch relies on the fact that wait_event[_interruptible] does not evaluate the condition again after it became true. - The diffstat looks unfavorable with respect to added lines of code. However 19 of them are comments, and some are due to separation of existing code blocks into two small helper functions.

2005-07-10[PATCH] Sync up ieee-1394Ben Collins
Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being intialized to 0, etc). There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling). Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly. We've also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the sake of cleanliness in the kernel. However, instead of removing them completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree that use our API for driver development. The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers. The new conversions handled directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2. This patch reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire disks and dvd drives again. We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside of the main kernel tree. We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.
