2009-06-14	firewire: core: use more outbound tlabels	Stefan Richter	1	-1/+2
	Tlabel is a 6 bits wide datum. Wrap it after 63 rather than 31 for more safety against transaction label exhaustion and potential responders' transaction layer bugs. (As noted by Guus Sliepen, this change requires an expansion of tlabel_mask to 64 bits.) Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
2009-06-14	firewire: core: don't update Broadcast_Channel if RFC 2734 conditions aren't met	Stefan Richter	1	-0/+2
	This extra check will avoid Broadcast_Channel register related traffic to many IIDC, SBP-2, and AV/C devices which aren't IRMC or have a max_rec < 8 (i.e. support < 512 bytes async payload). This avoids a little bit of traffic after bus reset and is even more careful with devices which don't implement this CSR. The assumption is that no other protocol than IP over 1394 uses the broadcast channel for streams. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
2009-06-06	firewire: add parent-of-unit accessor	Stefan Richter	1	-0/+5
	Retrieval of an fw_unit's parent is a common pattern in high-level code. Wrap it up as device = fw_parent_device(unit). Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
2009-06-05	firewire: reorganize header files	Stefan Richter	1	-0/+350
	The three header files of firewire-core, i.e. "drivers/firewire/fw-device.h", "drivers/firewire/fw-topology.h", "drivers/firewire/fw-transaction.h", are replaced by "drivers/firewire/core.h", "include/linux/firewire.h". The latter includes everything which a firewire high-level driver (like firewire-sbp2) needs besides linux/firewire-constants.h, while core.h contains the rest which is needed by firewire-core itself and by low- level drivers (card drivers) like firewire-ohci. High-level drivers can now also reside outside of drivers/firewire without having to add drivers/firewire to the header file search path in makefiles. At least the firedtv driver will be such a driver. I also considered to spread the contents of core.h over several files, one for each .c file where the respective implementation resides. But it turned out that most core .c files will end up including most of the core .h files. Also, the combined core.h isn't unreasonably big, and it will lose more of its contents to linux/firewire.h anyway soon when more firewire drivers are added. (IP-over-1394, firedtv, and there are plans for one or two more.) Furthermore, fw-ohci.h is renamed to ohci.h. The name of core.h and ohci.h is chosen with regard to name changes of the .c files in a follow-up change. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
