2010-07-28ks8842: Support DMA when accessed via timberdaleRichard Röjfors1-0/+4
This patch adds support for RX and TX DMA via the DMA API, this is only supported when the KS8842 is accessed via timberdale. There is no support for DMA on the generic bus interface it self, a state machine inside the FPGA is handling RX and TX transfers to/from buffers in the FPGA. The host CPU can do DMA to and from these buffers. The FPGA has to handle the RX interrupts, so these must be enabled in the ks8842 but not in the FPGA. The driver must not disable the RX interrupt that would mean that the data transfers into the FPGA buffers would stop. The host shall not enable TX interrupts since TX is handled by the FPGA, the host is notified by DMA callbacks when transfers are finished. Which DMA channels to use are added as parameters in the platform data struct. Signed-off-by: Richard Röjfors <richard.rojfors@pelagicore.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-07-27[SCSI] libfc: Fix remote port restart problemJoe Eykholt1-3/+2
This patch somewhat combines two fixes to remote port handing in libfc. The first problem was that rport work could be queued on a deleted and freed rport. This is handled by not resetting rdata->event ton NONE if the rdata is about to be deleted. However, that fix led to the second problem, described by Bhanu Gollapudi, as follows: > Here is the sequence of events. T1 is first LOGO receive thread, T2 is > fc_rport_work() scheduled by T1 and T3 is second LOGO receive thread and > T4 is fc_rport_work scheduled by T3. > > 1. (T1)Received 1st LOGO in state Ready > 2. (T1)Delete port & enter to RESTART state. > 3. (T1)schdule event_work, since event is RPORT_EV_NONE. > 4. (T1)set event = RPORT_EV_LOGO > 5. (T1)Enter RESTART state as disc_id is set. > 6. (T2)remember to PLOGI, and set event = RPORT_EV_NONE > 6. (T3)Received 2nd LOGO > 7. (T3)Delete Port & enter to RESTART state. > 8. (T3)schedule event_work, since event is RPORT_EV_NONE. > 9. (T3)Enter RESTART state as disc_id is set. > 9. (T3)set event = RPORT_EV_LOGO > 10.(T2)work restart, enter PLOGI state and issues PLOGI > 11.(T4)Since state is not RESTART anymore, restart is not set, and the > event is not reset to RPORT_EV_NONE. (current event is RPORT_EV_LOGO). > 12. Now, PLOGI succeeds and fc_rport_enter_ready() will not schedule > event_work, and hence the rport will never be created, eventually losing > the target after dev_loss_tmo. So, the problem here is that we were tracking the desire for the rport be restarted by state RESTART, which was otherwise equivalent to DELETE. A contributing factor is that we dropped the lock between steps 6 and 10 in thread T2, which allows the state to change, and we didn't completely re-evaluate then. This is hopefully corrected by the following minor redesign: Simplify the rport restart logic by making the decision to restart after deleting the transport rport. That decision is based on a new STARTED flag that indicates fc_rport_login() has been called and fc_rport_logoff() has not been called since then. This replaces the need for the RESTART state. Only restart if the rdata is still in DELETED state and only if it still has the STARTED flag set. Also now, since we clear the event code much later in the work thread, allow for the possibility that the rport may have become READY again via incoming PLOGI, and if so, queue another event to handle that. In the problem scenario, the second LOGO received will cause the LOGO event to occur again.

Filesystems with unwritten extent support must not complete an AIO request until the transaction to convert the extent has been commited.

2010-07-27swiotlb-xen: SWIOTLB library for Xen PV guest with PCI passthrough.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk1-0/+65
This patchset: PV guests under Xen are running in an non-contiguous memory architecture. When PCI pass-through is utilized, this necessitates an IOMMU for translating bus (DMA) to virtual and vice-versa and also providing a mechanism to have contiguous pages for device drivers operations (say DMA operations). Specifically, under Xen the Linux idea of pages is an illusion. It assumes that pages start at zero and go up to the available memory. To help with that, the Linux Xen MMU provides a lookup mechanism to translate the page frame numbers (PFN) to machine frame numbers (MFN) and vice-versa. The MFN are the "real" frame numbers. Furthermore memory is not contiguous. Xen hypervisor stitches memory for guests from different pools, which means there is no guarantee that PFN==MFN and PFN+1==MFN+1. Lastly with Xen 4.0, pages (in debug mode) are allocated in descending order (high to low), meaning the guest might never get any MFN's under the 4GB mark.

Add addr_assign_type to struct net_device and expose it via sysfs. This new attribute has the purpose of giving user-space the ability to distinguish between different assignment types of MAC addresses. For example user-space can treat NICs with randomly generated MAC addresses differently than NICs that have permanent (locally assigned) MAC addresses. For the former udev could write a persistent net rule by matching the device path instead of the MAC address. There's also the case of devices that 'steal' MAC addresses from slave devices. In which it is also be beneficial for user-space to be aware of the fact. This patch also introduces a helper function to assist adoption of drivers that generate MAC addresses randomly.

2010-07-24of: remove of_default_bus_idsJonas Bonn1-2/+0
This list used was by only two platforms with all other platforms defining an own list of valid bus id's to pass to of_platform_bus_probe. This patch: i) copies the default list to the two platforms that depended on it (powerpc) ii) remove the usage of of_default_bus_ids in of_platform_bus_probe iii) removes the definition of the list from all architectures that defined it Passing a NULL 'matches' parameter to of_platform_bus_probe is still valid; the function returns no error in that case as the NULL value is equivalent to an empty list. Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se> [grant.likely@secretlab.ca: added __initdata annotations, warn on and return error on missing match table, and fix whitespace errors] Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
2010-07-24of/device: Replace of_device with platform_device in includes and core codeGrant Likely2-13/+13
of_device is currently just an #define alias to platform_device until it gets removed entirely. This patch removes references to it from the include directories and the core drivers/of code. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-07-24of: remove asm/of_device.hGrant Likely1-1/+1
It is mostly unused now. Sparc has a few defines left in it, but they can be moved to other headers. Removing this header means that new architectures adding CONFIG_OF support don't need to also add this header file. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-07-24of: remove asm/of_platform.hGrant Likely1-2/+0
Only thing left in it is of_instantiate_rtc() which can be moved to asm/prom.h on PowerPC and is unused in microblaze. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-07-24of/platform: remove all of_bus_type and of_platform_bus_type referencesGrant Likely1-6/+0
Both of_bus_type and of_platform_bus_type are just #define aliases for the platform bus. This patch removes all references to them and switches to the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver() API for registering. Subsequent patches will convert each user of of_register_platform_driver() into plain platform_drivers without the of_platform_driver shim. At which point the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver() functions can be removed. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-07-24of: Merge of_platform_bus_type with platform_bus_typeGrant Likely2-13/+14
of_platform_bus was being used in the same manner as the platform_bus. The only difference being that of_platform_bus devices are generated from data in the device tree, and platform_bus devices are usually statically allocated in platform code. Having them separate causes the problem of device drivers having to be registered twice if it was possible for the same device to appear on either bus. This patch removes of_platform_bus_type and registers all of_platform bus devices and drivers on the platform bus instead. A previous patch made the of_device structure an alias for the platform_device structure, and a shim is used to adapt of_platform_drivers to the platform bus. After all of of_platform_bus drivers are converted to be normal platform drivers, the shim code can be removed. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: David S.
