2008-08-19ieee1394: sbp2: let nodemgr retry node updates during bus reset seriesStefan Richter
sbp2 was too quick to report .update() to the ieee1394 core as failed. (Logged as "Failed to reconnect to sbp2 device!".) The core would then unbind sbp2 from the device. This is not justified if the .update() failed because another bus reset happened. We check this and tell the ieee1394 that .update() succeeded, and the core will call sbp2's .update() for the new bus reset as well. This improves reconnection/re-login especially on buses with several disks as they may issue bus resets in close succession when they come online. Tested by Damien Benoist.

2008-08-19ieee1394: regression in 2.6.25: updates should happen before probesStefan Richter
Regression since commit 73cf60232ef16e1f8a64defa97214a1722db1e6c, "ieee1394: use class iteration api": The two loops for (1.) driver updates and (2.) driver probes were replaced by a single loop with bogus needs_probe checks. Hence updates and probes were now intermixed, and especially sbp2 updates (reconnects) held up longer than necessary. While we fix it, change the needs_probe flag to bool type for clarity.

2008-07-24PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architecturesAndrea Righi
On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit boundary. For example: u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size); always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB. The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for example): #define PAGE_SHIFT 12 #define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT) #define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1)) ... #define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK) The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary. Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses typeof(addr) for the mask. Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in include/linux/mm.h.

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.

2008-01-30ieee1394: sbp2: raise default transfer size limitStefan Richter
This patch speeds up sbp2 a little bit --- but more importantly, it brings the behavior of sbp2 and fw-sbp2 closer to each other. Like fw-sbp2, sbp2 now does not limit the size of single transfers to 255 sectors anymore, unless told so by a blacklist flag or by module load parameters. Only very old bridge chips have been known to need the 255 sectors limit, and we have got one such chip in our hardwired blacklist. There certainly is a danger that more bridges need that limit; but I prefer to have this issue present in both fw-sbp2 and sbp2 rather than just one of them. An OXUF922 with 400GB 7200RPM disk on an S400 controller is sped up by this patch from 22.9 to 23.5 MB/s according to hdparm. The same effect could be achieved before by setting a higher max_sectors module parameter. On buses which use 1394b beta mode, sbp2 and fw-sbp2 will now achieve virtually the same bandwidth. Fw-sbp2 only remains faster on 1394a buses due to fw-core's gap count optimization. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

2008-01-30x86: early boot debugging via FireWire (ohci1394_dma=early)Bernhard Kaindl
This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch() to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early. If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that, all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled in standard, non-debug kernels. With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers, if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter. In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire. An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger, without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA access is granted. A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt and I've put a copy online at ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt It also has links to all the tools which are available to make use of it another copy of it is online at: ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/kernel/ohci1394_dma_early-v2.diff Signed-Off-By: Bernhard Kaindl <bk@suse.de> Tested-By: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

This patch relaxes the default SCSI DMA alignment from 512 bytes to 4 bytes.
