2016-08-02rapidio/tsi721: add messaging mbox selector parameterAlexandre Bounine
Add module parameter to allow load time configuration of available RapidIO messaging mailboxes (MBOX1 - MBOX4). Having a messaging MBOX selector mask allows to define which MBOXes are controlled by the mport device driver and reserve some of them for direct use by other drivers.

2016-08-02rapidio/tsi721: add PCIe MRRS override parameterAlexandre Bounine
Add PCIe Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS) adjustment parameter to allow users to override configuration register value set during PCIe bus initialization. Performance of Tsi721 device as PCIe bus master can be improved if MRRS is set to its maximum value (4096 bytes). Some platforms have limitations for supported MRRS and therefore the default value should be preserved, unless it is known that given platform supports full set of MRRS values defined by PCI Express specification.

2016-08-02rapidio/tsi721_dma: add channel mask and queue size parametersAlexandre Bounine
Add module parameters to allow load time configuration of DMA channels. Depending on application, performance of DMA data transfers can benefit from adjusted sizes of buffer descriptor ring and/or transaction requests queue. Having HW DMA channel selector mask allows to define which channels (from seven available) are controlled by the mport device driver and reserve some of them for direct use by other drivers.

2016-08-02rapidio: add RapidIO channelized messaging driverAlexandre Bounine
Add channelized messaging driver to support native RapidIO messaging exchange between multiple senders/recipients on devices that use kernel RapidIO subsystem services. This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Prodrive Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT. Additional input was received from other members of RapidIO.org. The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which exposes messaging capabilities of RapidIO endpoint devices (mports) directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate. This char mode device driver allows user-space applications to setup messaging communication channels using single shared RapidIO messaging mailbox. By default this driver uses RapidIO MBOX_1 (MBOX_0 is reserved for use by RIONET Ethernet emulation driver).

2014-08-08rapidio/tsi721_dma: rework scatter-gather list handlingAlexandre Bounine
Rework Tsi721 RapidIO DMA engine support to allow handling data scatter/gather lists longer than number of hardware buffer descriptors in the DMA channel's descriptor list. The current implementation of Tsi721 DMA transfers requires that number of entries in a scatter/gather list provided by a caller of dmaengine_prep_rio_sg() should not exceed number of allocated hardware buffer descriptors. This patch removes the limitation by processing long scatter/gather lists by sections that can be transferred using hardware descriptor ring of configured size. It also introduces a module parameter "dma_desc_per_channel" to allow run-time configuration of Tsi721 hardware buffer descriptor rings.

2014-04-07rapidio: rework device hierarchy and introduce mport class of devicesAlexandre Bounine
This patch removes an artificial RapidIO bus root device and establishes actual device hierarchy by providing reference to real parent devices. It also introduces device class for RapidIO controller devices (on-chip or an eternal bridge, known as "mport"). Existing implementation was sufficient for SoC-based platforms that have a single RapidIO controller. With introduction of devices using multiple RapidIO controllers and PCIe-to-RapidIO bridges the old scheme is very limiting or does not work at all. The implemented changes allow to properly reference platform's local RapidIO mport devices and provide device details needed for upper layers. This change to RapidIO device hierarchy does not break any known existing kernel or user space interfaces.
