1 | What: /sys/firmware/memmap/ | ||
2 | Date: June 2008 | ||
3 | Contact: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@suse.de> | ||
4 | Description: | ||
5 | On all platforms, the firmware provides a memory map which the | ||
6 | kernel reads. The resources from that memory map are registered | ||
7 | in the kernel resource tree and exposed to userspace via | ||
8 | /proc/iomem (together with other resources). | ||
9 | |||
10 | However, on most architectures that firmware-provided memory | ||
11 | map is modified afterwards by the kernel itself, either because | ||
12 | the kernel merges that memory map with other information or | ||
13 | just because the user overwrites that memory map via command | ||
14 | line. | ||
15 | |||
16 | kexec needs the raw firmware-provided memory map to setup the | ||
17 | parameter segment of the kernel that should be booted with | ||
18 | kexec. Also, the raw memory map is useful for debugging. For | ||
19 | that reason, /sys/firmware/memmap is an interface that provides | ||
20 | the raw memory map to userspace. | ||
21 | |||
22 | The structure is as follows: Under /sys/firmware/memmap there | ||
23 | are subdirectories with the number of the entry as their name: | ||
24 | |||
25 | /sys/firmware/memmap/0 | ||
26 | /sys/firmware/memmap/1 | ||
27 | /sys/firmware/memmap/2 | ||
28 | /sys/firmware/memmap/3 | ||
29 | ... | ||
30 | |||
31 | The maximum depends on the number of memory map entries provided | ||
32 | by the firmware. The order is just the order that the firmware | ||
33 | provides. | ||
34 | |||
35 | Each directory contains three files: | ||
36 | |||
37 | start : The start address (as hexadecimal number with the | ||
38 | '0x' prefix). | ||
39 | end : The end address, inclusive (regardless whether the | ||
40 | firmware provides inclusive or exclusive ranges). | ||
41 | type : Type of the entry as string. See below for a list of | ||
42 | valid types. | ||
43 | |||
44 | So, for example: | ||
45 | |||
46 | /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start | ||
47 | /sys/firmware/memmap/0/end | ||
48 | /sys/firmware/memmap/0/type | ||
49 | /sys/firmware/memmap/1/start | ||
50 | ... | ||
51 | |||
52 | Currently following types exist: | ||
53 | |||
54 | - System RAM | ||
55 | - ACPI Tables | ||
56 | - ACPI Non-volatile Storage | ||
57 | - reserved | ||
58 | |||
59 | Following shell snippet can be used to display that memory | ||
60 | map in a human-readable format: | ||
61 | |||
62 | -------------------- 8< ---------------------------------------- | ||
63 | #!/bin/bash | ||
64 | cd /sys/firmware/memmap | ||

68 | type=$(cat $dir/type) | ||

200 | For some hardware that has more than one interrupt source internally, | ||
201 | but not separate IRQ mask and status registers, there might be | ||
202 | situations where userspace cannot determine what the interrupt source | ||
203 | was if the kernel handler disables them by writing to the chip's IRQ | ||
204 | register. In such a case, the kernel has to disable the IRQ completely | ||
205 | to leave the chip's register untouched. Now the userspace part can | ||
206 | determine the cause of the interrupt, but it cannot re-enable | ||
207 | interrupts. Another cornercase is chips where re-enabling interrupts | ||
208 | is a read-modify-write operation to a combined IRQ status/acknowledge | ||
209 | register. This would be racy if a new interrupt occurred | ||
210 | simultaneously. | ||

213 | To address these problems, UIO also implements a write() function. It | ||
214 | is normally not used and can be ignored for hardware that has only a | ||
215 | single interrupt source or has separate IRQ mask and status registers. | ||

217 | will call the <function>irqcontrol()</function> function implemented | ||

2 | 1. INTRODUCTION | ||
3 | |||
4 | Modern filesystems feature checksumming of data and metadata to | ||
5 | protect against data corruption. However, the detection of the | ||
6 | corruption is done at read time which could potentially be months | ||
7 | after the data was written. At that point the original data that the | ||
8 | application tried to write is most likely lost. | ||
9 | |||
10 | The solution is to ensure that the disk is actually storing what the | ||
11 | application meant it to. Recent additions to both the SCSI family | ||
12 | protocols (SBC Data Integrity Field, SCC protection proposal) as well | ||
13 | as SATA/T13 (External Path Protection) try to remedy this by adding | ||
14 | support for appending integrity metadata to an I/O. The integrity | ||
15 | metadata (or protection information in SCSI terminology) includes a | ||
16 | checksum for each sector as well as an incrementing counter that | ||
17 | ensures the individual sectors are written in the right order. And | ||
18 | for some protection schemes also that the I/O is written to the right | ||
19 | place on disk. | ||
20 | |||
21 | Current storage controllers and devices implement various protective | ||
22 | measures, for instance checksumming and scrubbing. But these | ||
23 | technologies are working in their own isolated domains or at best | ||
24 | between adjacent nodes in the I/O path. The interesting thing about | ||
25 | DIF and the other integrity extensions is that the protection format | ||
26 | is well defined and every node in the I/O path can verify the | ||
27 | integrity of the I/O and reject it if corruption is detected. This | ||
28 | allows not only corruption prevention but also isolation of the point | ||
29 | of failure. | ||
30 | |||
31 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
32 | 2. THE DATA INTEGRITY EXTENSIONS | ||
33 | |||
34 | As written, the protocol extensions only protect the path between | ||
35 | controller and storage device. However, many controllers actually | ||
36 | allow the operating system to interact with the integrity metadata | ||
37 | (IMD). We have been working with several FC/SAS HBA vendors to enable | ||
38 | the protection information to be transferred to and from their | ||
39 | controllers. | ||
40 | |||
41 | The SCSI Data Integrity Field works by appending 8 bytes of protection | ||
42 | information to each sector. The data + integrity metadata is stored | ||
43 | in 520 byte sectors on disk. Data + IMD are interleaved when | ||
44 | transferred between the controller and target. The T13 proposal is | ||
45 | similar. | ||
46 | |||
47 | Because it is highly inconvenient for operating systems to deal with | ||
48 | 520 (and 4104) byte sectors, we approached several HBA vendors and | ||
49 | encouraged them to allow separation of the data and integrity metadata | ||
50 | scatter-gather lists. | ||
51 | |||
52 | The controller will interleave the buffers on write and split them on | ||
53 | read. This means that the Linux can DMA the data buffers to and from | ||
54 | host memory without changes to the page cache. | ||
55 | |||
56 | Also, the 16-bit CRC checksum mandated by both the SCSI and SATA specs | ||
57 | is somewhat heavy to compute in software. Benchmarks found that | ||
58 | calculating this checksum had a significant impact on system | ||
59 | performance for a number of workloads. Some controllers allow a | ||
60 | lighter-weight checksum to be used when interfacing with the operating | ||
61 | system. Emulex, for instance, supports the TCP/IP checksum instead. | ||
62 | The IP checksum received from the OS is converted to the 16-bit CRC | ||
63 | when writing and vice versa. This allows the integrity metadata to be | ||
64 | generated by Linux or the application at very low cost (comparable to | ||
65 | software RAID5). | ||
66 | |||
67 | The IP checksum is weaker than the CRC in terms of detecting bit | ||
68 | errors. However, the strength is really in the separation of the data | ||
69 | buffers and the integrity metadata. These two distinct buffers much | ||
70 | match up for an I/O to complete. | ||
71 | |||
72 | The separation of the data and integrity metadata buffers as well as | ||
73 | the choice in checksums is referred to as the Data Integrity | ||
74 | Extensions. As these extensions are outside the scope of the protocol | ||
75 | bodies (T10, T13), Oracle and its partners are trying to standardize | ||
76 | them within the Storage Networking Industry Association. | ||
77 | |||
78 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
79 | 3. KERNEL CHANGES | ||
80 | |||
81 | The data integrity framework in Linux enables protection information | ||
82 | to be pinned to I/Os and sent to/received from controllers that | ||
83 | support it. | ||
84 | |||
85 | The advantage to the integrity extensions in SCSI and SATA is that | ||
86 | they enable us to protect the entire path from application to storage | ||
87 | device. However, at the same time this is also the biggest | ||
88 | disadvantage. It means that the protection information must be in a | ||
89 | format that can be understood by the disk. | ||
90 | |||
91 | Generally Linux/POSIX applications are agnostic to the intricacies of | ||
92 | the storage devices they are accessing. The virtual filesystem switch | ||
93 | and the block layer make things like hardware sector size and | ||
94 | transport protocols completely transparent to the application. | ||
95 | |||
96 | However, this level of detail is required when preparing the | ||
97 | protection information to send to a disk. Consequently, the very | ||
98 | concept of an end-to-end protection scheme is a layering violation. | ||
99 | It is completely unreasonable for an application to be aware whether | ||
100 | it is accessing a SCSI or SATA disk. | ||
101 | |||
102 | The data integrity support implemented in Linux attempts to hide this | ||
103 | from the application. As far as the application (and to some extent | ||
104 | the kernel) is concerned, the integrity metadata is opaque information | ||
105 | that's attached to the I/O. | ||
106 | |||
107 | The current implementation allows the block layer to automatically | ||
108 | generate the protection information for any I/O. Eventually the | ||
109 | intent is to move the integrity metadata calculation to userspace for | ||
110 | user data. Metadata and other I/O that originates within the kernel | ||
111 | will still use the automatic generation interface. | ||
112 | |||
113 | Some storage devices allow each hardware sector to be tagged with a | ||
114 | 16-bit value. The owner of this tag space is the owner of the block | ||
115 | device. I.e. the filesystem in most cases. The filesystem can use | ||
116 | this extra space to tag sectors as they see fit. Because the tag | ||
117 | space is limited, the block interface allows tagging bigger chunks by | ||
118 | way of interleaving. This way, 8*16 bits of information can be | ||
119 | attached to a typical 4KB filesystem block. | ||
120 | |||
121 | This also means that applications such as fsck and mkfs will need | ||
122 | access to manipulate the tags from user space. A passthrough | ||
123 | interface for this is being worked on. | ||
124 | |||
125 | |||
126 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
127 | 4. BLOCK LAYER IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS | ||
128 | |||
129 | 4.1 BIO | ||
130 | |||
131 | The data integrity patches add a new field to struct bio when | ||
132 | CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is enabled. bio->bi_integrity is a pointer | ||
133 | to a struct bip which contains the bio integrity payload. Essentially | ||
134 | a bip is a trimmed down struct bio which holds a bio_vec containing | ||
135 | the integrity metadata and the required housekeeping information (bvec | ||
136 | pool, vector count, etc.) | ||
137 | |||
138 | A kernel subsystem can enable data integrity protection on a bio by | ||
139 | calling bio_integrity_alloc(bio). This will allocate and attach the | ||
140 | bip to the bio. | ||
141 | |||
142 | Individual pages containing integrity metadata can subsequently be | ||
143 | attached using bio_integrity_add_page(). | ||
144 | |||
145 | bio_free() will automatically free the bip. | ||
146 | |||
147 | |||
148 | 4.2 BLOCK DEVICE | ||
149 | |||
150 | Because the format of the protection data is tied to the physical | ||
151 | disk, each block device has been extended with a block integrity | ||
152 | profile (struct blk_integrity). This optional profile is registered | ||
153 | with the block layer using blk_integrity_register(). | ||
154 | |||
155 | The profile contains callback functions for generating and verifying | ||
156 | the protection data, as well as getting and setting application tags. | ||
157 | The profile also contains a few constants to aid in completing, | ||
158 | merging and splitting the integrity metadata. | ||
159 | |||
160 | Layered block devices will need to pick a profile that's appropriate | ||
161 | for all subdevices. blk_integrity_compare() can help with that. DM | ||
162 | and MD linear, RAID0 and RAID1 are currently supported. RAID4/5/6 | ||
163 | will require extra work due to the application tag. | ||
164 | |||
165 | |||
166 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
167 | 5.0 BLOCK LAYER INTEGRITY API | ||
168 | |||
169 | 5.1 NORMAL FILESYSTEM | ||
170 | |||
171 | The normal filesystem is unaware that the underlying block device | ||
172 | is capable of sending/receiving integrity metadata. The IMD will | ||
173 | be automatically generated by the block layer at submit_bio() time | ||
174 | in case of a WRITE. A READ request will cause the I/O integrity | ||
175 | to be verified upon completion. | ||
176 | |||
177 | IMD generation and verification can be toggled using the | ||
178 | |||
179 | /sys/block/<bdev>/integrity/write_generate | ||
180 | |||
181 | and | ||
182 | |||
183 | /sys/block/<bdev>/integrity/read_verify | ||
184 | |||
185 | flags. | ||
186 | |||
187 | |||
188 | 5.2 INTEGRITY-AWARE FILESYSTEM | ||
189 | |||
190 | A filesystem that is integrity-aware can prepare I/Os with IMD | ||
191 | attached. It can also use the application tag space if this is | ||
192 | supported by the block device. | ||
193 | |||
194 | |||
195 | int bdev_integrity_enabled(block_device, int rw); | ||
196 | |||
197 | bdev_integrity_enabled() will return 1 if the block device | ||
198 | supports integrity metadata transfer for the data direction | ||
199 | specified in 'rw'. | ||
200 | |||
201 | bdev_integrity_enabled() honors the write_generate and | ||
202 | read_verify flags in sysfs and will respond accordingly. | ||
203 | |||
204 | |||
205 | int bio_integrity_prep(bio); | ||
206 | |||
207 | To generate IMD for WRITE and to set up buffers for READ, the | ||
208 | filesystem must call bio_integrity_prep(bio). | ||
209 | |||
210 | Prior to calling this function, the bio data direction and start | ||
211 | sector must be set, and the bio should have all data pages | ||
212 | added. It is up to the caller to ensure that the bio does not | ||
213 | change while I/O is in progress. | ||
214 | |||
215 | bio_integrity_prep() should only be called if | ||
216 | bio_integrity_enabled() returned 1. | ||
217 | |||
218 | |||
219 | int bio_integrity_tag_size(bio); | ||
220 | |||
221 | If the filesystem wants to use the application tag space it will | ||
222 | first have to find out how much storage space is available. | ||
223 | Because tag space is generally limited (usually 2 bytes per | ||
224 | sector regardless of sector size), the integrity framework | ||
225 | supports interleaving the information between the sectors in an | ||
226 | I/O. | ||
227 | |||
228 | Filesystems can call bio_integrity_tag_size(bio) to find out how | ||
229 | many bytes of storage are available for that particular bio. | ||
230 | |||
231 | Another option is bdev_get_tag_size(block_device) which will | ||
232 | return the number of available bytes per hardware sector. | ||
233 | |||
234 | |||
235 | int bio_integrity_set_tag(bio, void *tag_buf, len); | ||
236 | |||
237 | After a successful return from bio_integrity_prep(), | ||
238 | bio_integrity_set_tag() can be used to attach an opaque tag | ||
239 | buffer to a bio. Obviously this only makes sense if the I/O is | ||
240 | a WRITE. | ||
241 | |||
242 | |||
243 | int bio_integrity_get_tag(bio, void *tag_buf, len); | ||
244 | |||
245 | Similarly, at READ I/O completion time the filesystem can | ||
246 | retrieve the tag buffer using bio_integrity_get_tag(). | ||
247 | |||
248 | |||
249 | 6.3 PASSING EXISTING INTEGRITY METADATA | ||
250 | |||
251 | Filesystems that either generate their own integrity metadata or | ||
252 | are capable of transferring IMD from user space can use the | ||
253 | following calls: | ||

256 | struct bip * bio_integrity_alloc(bio, gfp_mask, nr_pages); | ||
257 | |||
258 | Allocates the bio integrity payload and hangs it off of the bio. | ||
259 | nr_pages indicate how many pages of protection data need to be | ||
260 | stored in the integrity bio_vec list (similar to bio_alloc()). | ||

262 | The integrity payload will be freed at bio_free() time. | ||
263 | |||
264 | |||
265 | int bio_integrity_add_page(bio, page, len, offset); | ||
266 | |||
267 | Attaches a page containing integrity metadata to an existing | ||
268 | bio. The bio must have an existing bip, | ||
269 | i.e. bio_integrity_alloc() must have been called. For a WRITE, | ||
270 | the integrity metadata in the pages must be in a format | ||
271 | understood by the target device with the notable exception that | ||
272 | the sector numbers will be remapped as the request traverses the | ||
273 | I/O stack. This implies that the pages added using this call | ||
274 | will be modified during I/O! The first reference tag in the | ||
275 | integrity metadata must have a value of bip->bip_sector. | ||
276 | |||
277 | Pages can be added using bio_integrity_add_page() as long as | ||
278 | there is room in the bip bio_vec array (nr_pages). | ||
279 | |||
280 | Upon completion of a READ operation, the attached pages will | ||
281 | contain the integrity metadata received from the storage device. | ||
282 | It is up to the receiver to process them and verify data | ||
283 | integrity upon completion. | ||

286 | 6.4 REGISTERING A BLOCK DEVICE AS CAPABLE OF EXCHANGING INTEGRITY | ||
287 | METADATA | ||
288 | |||
289 | To enable integrity exchange on a block device the gendisk must be | ||
290 | registered as capable: | ||
291 | |||
292 | int blk_integrity_register(gendisk, blk_integrity); | ||
293 | |||
294 | The blk_integrity struct is a template and should contain the | ||
295 | following: | ||
296 | |||
297 | static struct blk_integrity my_profile = { | ||
298 | .name = "STANDARDSBODY-TYPE-VARIANT-CSUM", | ||
299 | .generate_fn = my_generate_fn, | ||
300 | .verify_fn = my_verify_fn, | ||
301 | .get_tag_fn = my_get_tag_fn, | ||
302 | .set_tag_fn = my_set_tag_fn, | ||
303 | .tuple_size = sizeof(struct my_tuple_size), | ||
304 | .tag_size = <tag bytes per hw sector>, | ||
305 | }; | ||
306 | |||
307 | 'name' is a text string which will be visible in sysfs. This is | ||
308 | part of the userland API so chose it carefully and never change | ||
309 | it. The format is standards body-type-variant. | ||
310 | E.g. T10-DIF-TYPE1-IP or T13-EPP-0-CRC. | ||
311 | |||
312 | 'generate_fn' generates appropriate integrity metadata (for WRITE). | ||
313 | |||
314 | 'verify_fn' verifies that the data buffer matches the integrity | ||
315 | metadata. | ||
316 | |||
317 | 'tuple_size' must be set to match the size of the integrity | ||
318 | metadata per sector. I.e. 8 for DIF and EPP. | ||
319 | |||
320 | 'tag_size' must be set to identify how many bytes of tag space | ||
321 | are available per hardware sector. For DIF this is either 2 or | ||
322 | 0 depending on the value of the Control Mode Page ATO bit. | ||
323 | |||
324 | See 6.2 for a description of get_tag_fn and set_tag_fn. | ||

11 | A generic digital 24-port PCI GPIO card can be built out of an ordinary | ||
12 | Brooktree bt848, bt849, bt878 or bt879 based analog TV tuner card. The | ||
13 | Brooktree chip is used in old analog Hauppauge WinTV PCI cards. You can easily | ||
14 | find them used for low prices on the net. | ||
15 | |||
16 | The bt8xx chip does have 24 digital GPIO ports. | ||
17 | These ports are accessible via 24 pins on the SMD chip package. | ||

21 | == How to physically access the GPIO pins == | ||
22 | ============================================== | ||
23 | |||
24 | The are several ways to access these pins. One might unsolder the whole chip | ||
25 | and put it on a custom PCI board, or one might only unsolder each individual | ||
26 | GPIO pin and solder that to some tiny wire. As the chip package really is tiny | ||
27 | there are some advanced soldering skills needed in any case. | ||

1 | SH7760/SH7763 integrated LCDC Framebuffer driver | ||
2 | ================================================ | ||
3 | |||
4 | 0. Overwiew | ||
5 | ----------- | ||
6 | The SH7760/SH7763 have an integrated LCD Display controller (LCDC) which | ||
7 | supports (in theory) resolutions ranging from 1x1 to 1024x1024, | ||
8 | with color depths ranging from 1 to 16 bits, on STN, DSTN and TFT Panels. | ||
9 | |||
10 | Caveats: | ||
11 | * Framebuffer memory must be a large chunk allocated at the top | ||
12 | of Area3 (HW requirement). Because of this requirement you should NOT | ||
13 | make the driver a module since at runtime it may become impossible to | ||
14 | get a large enough contiguous chunk of memory. | ||
15 | |||
16 | * The driver does not support changing resolution while loaded | ||
17 | (displays aren't hotpluggable anyway) | ||
18 | |||
19 | * Heavy flickering may be observed | ||
20 | a) if you're using 15/16bit color modes at >= 640x480 px resolutions, | ||
21 | b) during PCMCIA (or any other slow bus) activity. | ||
22 | |||
23 | * Rotation works only 90degress clockwise, and only if horizontal | ||
24 | resolution is <= 320 pixels. | ||
25 | |||

29 | |||
30 | 1. Platform setup | ||
31 | ----------------- | ||
32 | SH7760: | ||
33 | Video data is fetched via the DMABRG DMA engine, so you have to | ||
34 | configure the SH DMAC for DMABRG mode (write 0x94808080 to the | ||
35 | DMARSRA register somewhere at boot). | ||
36 | |||
37 | PFC registers PCCR and PCDR must be set to peripheral mode. | ||
38 | (write zeros to both). | ||
39 | |||
40 | The driver does NOT do the above for you since board setup is, well, job | ||
41 | of the board setup code. | ||
42 | |||
43 | 2. Panel definitions | ||
44 | -------------------- | ||
45 | The LCDC must explicitly be told about the type of LCD panel | ||
46 | attached. Data must be wrapped in a "struct sh7760fb_platdata" and | ||
47 | passed to the driver as platform_data. | ||
48 | |||
49 | Suggest you take a closer look at the SH7760 Manual, Section 30. | ||
50 | (http://documentation.renesas.com/eng/products/mpumcu/e602291_sh7760.pdf) | ||

1 | Glock internal locking rules | ||
2 | ------------------------------ | ||
3 | |||
4 | This documents the basic principles of the glock state machine | ||
5 | internals. Each glock (struct gfs2_glock in fs/gfs2/incore.h) | ||
6 | has two main (internal) locks: | ||
7 | |||
8 | 1. A spinlock (gl_spin) which protects the internal state such | ||
9 | as gl_state, gl_target and the list of holders (gl_holders) | ||
10 | 2. A non-blocking bit lock, GLF_LOCK, which is used to prevent other | ||
11 | threads from making calls to the DLM, etc. at the same time. If a | ||
12 | thread takes this lock, it must then call run_queue (usually via the | ||
13 | workqueue) when it releases it in order to ensure any pending tasks | ||
14 | are completed. | ||
15 | |||
16 | The gl_holders list contains all the queued lock requests (not | ||
17 | just the holders) associated with the glock. If there are any | ||
18 | held locks, then they will be contiguous entries at the head | ||
19 | of the list. Locks are granted in strictly the order that they | ||
20 | are queued, except for those marked LM_FLAG_PRIORITY which are | ||
21 | used only during recovery, and even then only for journal locks. | ||
22 | |||
23 | There are three lock states that users of the glock layer can request, | ||
24 | namely shared (SH), deferred (DF) and exclusive (EX). Those translate | ||
25 | to the following DLM lock modes: | ||
26 | |||
27 | Glock mode | DLM lock mode | ||
28 | ------------------------------ | ||
29 | UN | IV/NL Unlocked (no DLM lock associated with glock) or NL | ||
30 | SH | PR (Protected read) | ||
31 | DF | CW (Concurrent write) | ||
32 | EX | EX (Exclusive) | ||
33 | |||
34 | Thus DF is basically a shared mode which is incompatible with the "normal" | ||
35 | shared lock mode, SH. In GFS2 the DF mode is used exclusively for direct I/O | ||
36 | operations. The glocks are basically a lock plus some routines which deal | ||
37 | with cache management. The following rules apply for the cache: | ||
38 | |||
39 | Glock mode | Cache data | Cache Metadata | Dirty Data | Dirty Metadata | ||
40 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
41 | UN | No | No | No | No | ||
42 | SH | Yes | Yes | No | No | ||
43 | DF | No | Yes | No | No | ||
44 | EX | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | ||
45 | |||
46 | These rules are implemented using the various glock operations which | ||
47 | are defined for each type of glock. Not all types of glocks use | ||
48 | all the modes. Only inode glocks use the DF mode for example. | ||
49 | |||
50 | Table of glock operations and per type constants: | ||
51 | |||
52 | Field | Purpose | ||
53 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
54 | go_xmote_th | Called before remote state change (e.g. to sync dirty data) | ||
55 | go_xmote_bh | Called after remote state change (e.g. to refill cache) | ||
56 | go_inval | Called if remote state change requires invalidating the cache | ||
57 | go_demote_ok | Returns boolean value of whether its ok to demote a glock | ||
58 | | (e.g. checks timeout, and that there is no cached data) | ||
59 | go_lock | Called for the first local holder of a lock | ||
60 | go_unlock | Called on the final local unlock of a lock | ||
61 | go_dump | Called to print content of object for debugfs file, or on | ||
62 | | error to dump glock to the log. | ||
63 | go_type; | The type of the glock, LM_TYPE_..... | ||
64 | go_min_hold_time | The minimum hold time | ||
65 | |||
66 | The minimum hold time for each lock is the time after a remote lock | ||
67 | grant for which we ignore remote demote requests. This is in order to | ||
68 | prevent a situation where locks are being bounced around the cluster | ||
69 | from node to node with none of the nodes making any progress. This | ||
70 | tends to show up most with shared mmaped files which are being written | ||
71 | to by multiple nodes. By delaying the demotion in response to a | ||
72 | remote callback, that gives the userspace program time to make | ||
73 | some progress before the pages are unmapped. | ||
74 | |||
75 | There is a plan to try and remove the go_lock and go_unlock callbacks | ||
76 | if possible, in order to try and speed up the fast path though the locking. | ||
77 | Also, eventually we hope to make the glock "EX" mode locally shared | ||
78 | such that any local locking will be done with the i_mutex as required | ||
79 | rather than via the glock. | ||
80 | |||
81 | Locking rules for glock operations: | ||
82 | |||
83 | Operation | GLF_LOCK bit lock held | gl_spin spinlock held | ||
84 | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
85 | go_xmote_th | Yes | No | ||
86 | go_xmote_bh | Yes | No | ||
87 | go_inval | Yes | No | ||
88 | go_demote_ok | Sometimes | Yes | ||
89 | go_lock | Yes | No | ||
90 | go_unlock | Yes | No | ||
91 | go_dump | Sometimes | Yes | ||
92 | |||
93 | N.B. Operations must not drop either the bit lock or the spinlock | ||
94 | if its held on entry. go_dump and do_demote_ok must never block. | ||
95 | Note that go_dump will only be called if the glock's state | ||
96 | indicates that it is caching uptodate data. | ||
97 | |||
98 | Glock locking order within GFS2: | ||
99 | |||
100 | 1. i_mutex (if required) | ||
101 | 2. Rename glock (for rename only) | ||
102 | 3. Inode glock(s) | ||
103 | (Parents before children, inodes at "same level" with same parent in | ||
104 | lock number order) | ||
105 | 4. Rgrp glock(s) (for (de)allocation operations) | ||
106 | 5. Transaction glock (via gfs2_trans_begin) for non-read operations | ||

109 | There are two glocks per inode. One deals with access to the inode | ||
110 | itself (locking order as above), and the other, known as the iopen | ||
111 | glock is used in conjunction with the i_nlink field in the inode to | ||
112 | determine the lifetime of the inode in question. Locking of inodes | ||
113 | is on a per-inode basis. Locking of rgrps is on a per rgrp basis. | ||

1 | Optimized MPEG Filesystem (OMFS) | ||
2 | |||
3 | Overview | ||
4 | ======== | ||
5 | |||
6 | OMFS is a filesystem created by SonicBlue for use in the ReplayTV DVR | ||
7 | and Rio Karma MP3 player. The filesystem is extent-based, utilizing | ||
8 | block sizes from 2k to 8k, with hash-based directories. This | ||
9 | filesystem driver may be used to read and write disks from these | ||
10 | devices. | ||
11 | |||
12 | Note, it is not recommended that this FS be used in place of a general | ||
13 | filesystem for your own streaming media device. Native Linux filesystems | ||
14 | will likely perform better. | ||
15 | |||
16 | More information is available at: | ||
17 | |||
18 | http://linux-karma.sf.net/ | ||
19 | |||
20 | Various utilities, including mkomfs and omfsck, are included with | ||
21 | omfsprogs, available at: | ||
22 | |||
23 | http://bobcopeland.com/karma/ | ||
24 | |||
25 | Instructions are included in its README. | ||
26 | |||
27 | Options | ||
28 | ======= | ||
29 | |||
30 | OMFS supports the following mount-time options: | ||
31 | |||
32 | uid=n - make all files owned by specified user | ||
33 | gid=n - make all files owned by specified group | ||
34 | umask=xxx - set permission umask to xxx | ||
35 | fmask=xxx - set umask to xxx for files | ||
36 | dmask=xxx - set umask to xxx for directories | ||
37 | |||
38 | Disk format | ||
39 | =========== | ||
40 | |||
41 | OMFS discriminates between "sysblocks" and normal data blocks. The sysblock | ||
42 | group consists of super block information, file metadata, directory structures, | ||
43 | and extents. Each sysblock has a header containing CRCs of the entire | ||
44 | sysblock, and may be mirrored in successive blocks on the disk. A sysblock may | ||
45 | have a smaller size than a data block, but since they are both addressed by the | ||
46 | same 64-bit block number, any remaining space in the smaller sysblock is | ||
47 | unused. | ||
48 | |||
49 | Sysblock header information: | ||
50 | |||
51 | struct omfs_header { | ||
52 | __be64 h_self; /* FS block where this is located */ | ||
53 | __be32 h_body_size; /* size of useful data after header */ | ||
54 | __be16 h_crc; /* crc-ccitt of body_size bytes */ | ||
55 | char h_fill1[2]; | ||
56 | u8 h_version; /* version, always 1 */ | ||
57 | char h_type; /* OMFS_INODE_X */ | ||
58 | u8 h_magic; /* OMFS_IMAGIC */ | ||
59 | u8 h_check_xor; /* XOR of header bytes before this */ | ||
60 | __be32 h_fill2; | ||
61 | }; | ||
62 | |||
63 | Files and directories are both represented by omfs_inode: | ||
64 | |||
65 | struct omfs_inode { | ||
66 | struct omfs_header i_head; /* header */ | ||
67 | __be64 i_parent; /* parent containing this inode */ | ||
68 | __be64 i_sibling; /* next inode in hash bucket */ | ||
69 | __be64 i_ctime; /* ctime, in milliseconds */ | ||
70 | char i_fill1[35]; | ||
71 | char i_type; /* OMFS_[DIR,FILE] */ | ||
72 | __be32 i_fill2; | ||
73 | char i_fill3[64]; | ||
74 | char i_name[OMFS_NAMELEN]; /* filename */ | ||
75 | __be64 i_size; /* size of file, in bytes */ | ||
76 | }; | ||
77 | |||
78 | Directories in OMFS are implemented as a large hash table. Filenames are | ||
79 | hashed then prepended into the bucket list beginning at OMFS_DIR_START. | ||
80 | Lookup requires hashing the filename, then seeking across i_sibling pointers | ||
81 | until a match is found on i_name. Empty buckets are represented by block | ||
82 | pointers with all-1s (~0). | ||
83 | |||
84 | A file is an omfs_inode structure followed by an extent table beginning at | ||
85 | OMFS_EXTENT_START: | ||
86 | |||
87 | struct omfs_extent_entry { | ||
88 | __be64 e_cluster; /* start location of a set of blocks */ | ||
89 | __be64 e_blocks; /* number of blocks after e_cluster */ | ||
90 | }; | ||
91 | |||
92 | struct omfs_extent { | ||
93 | __be64 e_next; /* next extent table location */ | ||
94 | __be32 e_extent_count; /* total # extents in this table */ | ||
95 | __be32 e_fill; | ||
96 | struct omfs_extent_entry e_entry; /* start of extent entries */ | ||
97 | }; | ||
98 | |||
99 | Each extent holds the block offset followed by number of blocks allocated to | ||
100 | the extent. The final extent in each table is a terminator with e_cluster | ||
101 | being ~0 and e_blocks being ones'-complement of the total number of blocks | ||
102 | in the table. | ||
103 | |||
104 | If this table overflows, a continuation inode is written and pointed to by | ||
105 | e_next. These have a header but lack the rest of the inode structure. | ||

1 | Introduction | ||
2 | ============= | ||
3 | |||
4 | UBIFS file-system stands for UBI File System. UBI stands for "Unsorted | ||
5 | Block Images". UBIFS is a flash file system, which means it is designed | ||
6 | to work with flash devices. It is important to understand, that UBIFS | ||
7 | is completely different to any traditional file-system in Linux, like | ||
8 | Ext2, XFS, JFS, etc. UBIFS represents a separate class of file-systems | ||
9 | which work with MTD devices, not block devices. The other Linux | ||
10 | file-system of this class is JFFS2. | ||
11 | |||
12 | To make it more clear, here is a small comparison of MTD devices and | ||
13 | block devices. | ||
14 | |||
15 | 1 MTD devices represent flash devices and they consist of eraseblocks of | ||
16 | rather large size, typically about 128KiB. Block devices consist of | ||
17 | small blocks, typically 512 bytes. | ||
18 | 2 MTD devices support 3 main operations - read from some offset within an | ||
19 | eraseblock, write to some offset within an eraseblock, and erase a whole | ||
20 | eraseblock. Block devices support 2 main operations - read a whole | ||
21 | block and write a whole block. | ||
22 | 3 The whole eraseblock has to be erased before it becomes possible to | ||
23 | re-write its contents. Blocks may be just re-written. | ||
24 | 4 Eraseblocks become worn out after some number of erase cycles - | ||
25 | typically 100K-1G for SLC NAND and NOR flashes, and 1K-10K for MLC | ||
26 | NAND flashes. Blocks do not have the wear-out property. | ||
27 | 5 Eraseblocks may become bad (only on NAND flashes) and software should | ||
28 | deal with this. Blocks on hard drives typically do not become bad, | ||
29 | because hardware has mechanisms to substitute bad blocks, at least in | ||
30 | modern LBA disks. | ||
31 | |||
32 | It should be quite obvious why UBIFS is very different to traditional | ||
33 | file-systems. | ||
34 | |||
35 | UBIFS works on top of UBI. UBI is a separate software layer which may be | ||
36 | found in drivers/mtd/ubi. UBI is basically a volume management and | ||
37 | wear-leveling layer. It provides so called UBI volumes which is a higher | ||
38 | level abstraction than a MTD device. The programming model of UBI devices | ||
39 | is very similar to MTD devices - they still consist of large eraseblocks, | ||
40 | they have read/write/erase operations, but UBI devices are devoid of | ||
41 | limitations like wear and bad blocks (items 4 and 5 in the above list). | ||
42 | |||
43 | In a sense, UBIFS is a next generation of JFFS2 file-system, but it is | ||
44 | very different and incompatible to JFFS2. The following are the main | ||
45 | differences. | ||
46 | |||
47 | * JFFS2 works on top of MTD devices, UBIFS depends on UBI and works on | ||
48 | top of UBI volumes. | ||
49 | * JFFS2 does not have on-media index and has to build it while mounting, | ||
50 | which requires full media scan. UBIFS maintains the FS indexing | ||
51 | information on the flash media and does not require full media scan, | ||
52 | so it mounts many times faster than JFFS2. | ||
53 | * JFFS2 is a write-through file-system, while UBIFS supports write-back, | ||
54 | which makes UBIFS much faster on writes. | ||
55 | |||
56 | Similarly to JFFS2, UBIFS supports on-the-flight compression which makes | ||
57 | it possible to fit quite a lot of data to the flash. | ||
58 | |||
59 | Similarly to JFFS2, UBIFS is tolerant of unclean reboots and power-cuts. | ||
60 | It does not need stuff like ckfs.ext2. UBIFS automatically replays its | ||
61 | journal and recovers from crashes, ensuring that the on-flash data | ||
62 | structures are consistent. | ||
63 | |||
64 | UBIFS scales logarithmically (most of the data structures it uses are | ||
65 | trees), so the mount time and memory consumption do not linearly depend | ||
66 | on the flash size, like in case of JFFS2. This is because UBIFS | ||
67 | maintains the FS index on the flash media. However, UBIFS depends on | ||
68 | UBI, which scales linearly. So overall UBI/UBIFS stack scales linearly. | ||
69 | Nevertheless, UBI/UBIFS scales considerably better than JFFS2. | ||
70 | |||
71 | The authors of UBIFS believe, that it is possible to develop UBI2 which | ||
72 | would scale logarithmically as well. UBI2 would support the same API as UBI, | ||
73 | but it would be binary incompatible to UBI. So UBIFS would not need to be | ||
74 | changed to use UBI2 | ||
75 | |||
76 | |||
77 | Mount options | ||
78 | ============= | ||
79 | |||
80 | (*) == default. | ||
81 | |||
82 | norm_unmount (*) commit on unmount; the journal is committed | ||
83 | when the file-system is unmounted so that the | ||
84 | next mount does not have to replay the journal | ||
85 | and it becomes very fast; | ||
86 | fast_unmount do not commit on unmount; this option makes | ||
87 | unmount faster, but the next mount slower | ||
88 | because of the need to replay the journal. | ||
89 | |||
90 | |||
91 | Quick usage instructions | ||
92 | ======================== | ||
93 | |||
94 | The UBI volume to mount is specified using "ubiX_Y" or "ubiX:NAME" syntax, | ||
95 | where "X" is UBI device number, "Y" is UBI volume number, and "NAME" is | ||
96 | UBI volume name. | ||
97 | |||
98 | Mount volume 0 on UBI device 0 to /mnt/ubifs: | ||
99 | $ mount -t ubifs ubi0_0 /mnt/ubifs | ||
100 | |||
101 | Mount "rootfs" volume of UBI device 0 to /mnt/ubifs ("rootfs" is volume | ||
102 | name): | ||
103 | $ mount -t ubifs ubi0:rootfs /mnt/ubifs | ||
104 | |||
105 | The following is an example of the kernel boot arguments to attach mtd0 | ||
106 | to UBI and mount volume "rootfs": | ||
107 | ubi.mtd=0 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs | ||
108 | |||
109 | |||
110 | Module Parameters for Debugging | ||
111 | =============================== | ||
112 | |||
113 | When UBIFS has been compiled with debugging enabled, there are 3 module | ||
114 | parameters that are available to control aspects of testing and debugging. | ||
115 | The parameters are unsigned integers where each bit controls an option. | ||
116 | The parameters are: | ||
117 | |||
118 | debug_msgs Selects which debug messages to display, as follows: | ||
119 | |||
120 | Message Type Flag value | ||
121 | |||
122 | General messages 1 | ||
123 | Journal messages 2 | ||
124 | Mount messages 4 | ||
125 | Commit messages 8 | ||
126 | LEB search messages 16 | ||
127 | Budgeting messages 32 | ||
128 | Garbage collection messages 64 | ||

130 | LEB properties (lprops) messages 256 | ||
131 | Input/output messages 512 | ||
132 | Log messages 1024 | ||
133 | Scan messages 2048 | ||
134 | Recovery messages 4096 | ||
135 | |||
136 | debug_chks Selects extra checks that UBIFS can do while running: | ||
137 | |||
138 | Check Flag value | ||
139 | |||
140 | General checks 1 | ||
141 | Check Tree Node Cache (TNC) 2 | ||
142 | Check indexing tree size 4 | ||
143 | Check orphan area 8 | ||
144 | Check old indexing tree 16 | ||
145 | Check LEB properties (lprops) 32 | ||
146 | Check leaf nodes and inodes 64 | ||
147 | |||
148 | debug_tsts Selects a mode of testing, as follows: | ||
149 | |||
150 | Test mode Flag value | ||
151 | |||
152 | Force in-the-gaps method 2 | ||
153 | Failure mode for recovery testing 4 | ||
154 | |||
155 | For example, set debug_msgs to 5 to display General messages and Mount | ||
156 | messages. | ||

12 | Introduction | ||
13 | ------------ | ||
14 | |||
15 | Ftrace is an internal tracer designed to help out developers and | ||
16 | designers of systems to find what is going on inside the kernel. | ||
17 | It can be used for debugging or analyzing latencies and performance | ||
18 | issues that take place outside of user-space. | ||
19 | |||
20 | Although ftrace is the function tracer, it also includes an | ||
21 | infrastructure that allows for other types of tracing. Some of the | ||
22 | tracers that are currently in ftrace include a tracer to trace | ||
23 | context switches, the time it takes for a high priority task to | ||
24 | run after it was woken up, the time interrupts are disabled, and | ||
25 | more (ftrace allows for tracer plugins, which means that the list of | ||
26 | tracers can always grow). | ||
27 | |||
28 | |||
29 | The File System | ||
30 | --------------- | ||
31 | |||
32 | Ftrace uses the debugfs file system to hold the control files as well | ||
33 | as the files to display output. | ||
34 | |||
35 | To mount the debugfs system: | ||
36 | |||
37 | # mkdir /debug | ||
38 | # mount -t debugfs nodev /debug | ||
39 | |||
40 | (Note: it is more common to mount at /sys/kernel/debug, but for simplicity | ||
41 | this document will use /debug) | ||
42 | |||
43 | That's it! (assuming that you have ftrace configured into your kernel) | ||
44 | |||
45 | After mounting the debugfs, you can see a directory called | ||
46 | "tracing". This directory contains the control and output files | ||
47 | of ftrace. Here is a list of some of the key files: | ||
48 | |||
49 | |||
50 | Note: all time values are in microseconds. | ||
51 | |||
52 | current_tracer : This is used to set or display the current tracer | ||
53 | that is configured. | ||
54 | |||
55 | available_tracers : This holds the different types of tracers that | ||
56 | have been compiled into the kernel. The tracers | ||
57 | listed here can be configured by echoing their name | ||
58 | into current_tracer. | ||
59 | |||
60 | tracing_enabled : This sets or displays whether the current_tracer | ||
61 | is activated and tracing or not. Echo 0 into this | ||
62 | file to disable the tracer or 1 to enable it. | ||
63 | |||
64 | trace : This file holds the output of the trace in a human readable | ||
65 | format (described below). | ||
66 | |||
67 | latency_trace : This file shows the same trace but the information | ||
68 | is organized more to display possible latencies | ||
69 | in the system (described below). | ||
70 | |||
71 | trace_pipe : The output is the same as the "trace" file but this | ||
72 | file is meant to be streamed with live tracing. | ||
73 | Reads from this file will block until new data | ||
74 | is retrieved. Unlike the "trace" and "latency_trace" | ||
75 | files, this file is a consumer. This means reading | ||
76 | from this file causes sequential reads to display | ||
77 | more current data. Once data is read from this | ||
78 | file, it is consumed, and will not be read | ||
79 | again with a sequential read. The "trace" and | ||
80 | "latency_trace" files are static, and if the | ||
81 | tracer is not adding more data, they will display | ||
82 | the same information every time they are read. | ||
83 | |||
84 | iter_ctrl : This file lets the user control the amount of data | ||
85 | that is displayed in one of the above output | ||
86 | files. | ||
87 | |||
88 | trace_max_latency : Some of the tracers record the max latency. | ||
89 | For example, the time interrupts are disabled. | ||
90 | This time is saved in this file. The max trace | ||
91 | will also be stored, and displayed by either | ||
92 | "trace" or "latency_trace". A new max trace will | ||
93 | only be recorded if the latency is greater than | ||
94 | the value in this file. (in microseconds) | ||
95 | |||
96 | trace_entries : This sets or displays the number of trace | ||
97 | entries each CPU buffer can hold. The tracer buffers | ||
98 | are the same size for each CPU. The displayed number | ||
99 | is the size of the CPU buffer and not total size. The | ||
100 | trace buffers are allocated in pages (blocks of memory | ||
101 | that the kernel uses for allocation, usually 4 KB in size). | ||
102 | Since each entry is smaller than a page, if the last | ||
103 | allocated page has room for more entries than were | ||
104 | requested, the rest of the page is used to allocate | ||
105 | entries. | ||
106 | |||
107 | This can only be updated when the current_tracer | ||
108 | is set to "none". | ||
109 | |||
110 | NOTE: It is planned on changing the allocated buffers | ||
111 | from being the number of possible CPUS to | ||
112 | the number of online CPUS. | ||
113 | |||
114 | tracing_cpumask : This is a mask that lets the user only trace | ||
115 | on specified CPUS. The format is a hex string | ||
116 | representing the CPUS. | ||
117 | |||
118 | set_ftrace_filter : When dynamic ftrace is configured in (see the | ||
119 | section below "dynamic ftrace"), the code is dynamically | ||
120 | modified (code text rewrite) to disable calling of the | ||
121 | function profiler (mcount). This lets tracing be configured | ||
122 | in with practically no overhead in performance. This also | ||
123 | has a side effect of enabling or disabling specific functions | ||
124 | to be traced. Echoing names of functions into this file | ||
125 | will limit the trace to only those functions. | ||
126 | |||
127 | set_ftrace_notrace: This has an effect opposite to that of | ||
128 | set_ftrace_filter. Any function that is added here will not | ||
129 | be traced. If a function exists in both set_ftrace_filter | ||
130 | and set_ftrace_notrace, the function will _not_ be traced. | ||
131 | |||
132 | available_filter_functions : When a function is encountered the first | ||
133 | time by the dynamic tracer, it is recorded and | ||
134 | later the call is converted into a nop. This file | ||
135 | lists the functions that have been recorded | ||
136 | by the dynamic tracer and these functions can | ||
137 | be used to set the ftrace filter by the above | ||
138 | "set_ftrace_filter" file. (See the section "dynamic ftrace" | ||
139 | below for more details). | ||
140 | |||
141 | |||
142 | The Tracers | ||
143 | ----------- | ||
144 | |||
145 | Here is the list of current tracers that may be configured. | ||
146 | |||
147 | ftrace - function tracer that uses mcount to trace all functions. | ||
148 | |||
149 | sched_switch - traces the context switches between tasks. | ||
150 | |||
151 | irqsoff - traces the areas that disable interrupts and saves | ||
152 | the trace with the longest max latency. | ||
153 | See tracing_max_latency. When a new max is recorded, | ||
154 | it replaces the old trace. It is best to view this | ||
155 | trace via the latency_trace file. | ||
156 | |||
157 | preemptoff - Similar to irqsoff but traces and records the amount of | ||
158 | time for which preemption is disabled. | ||
159 | |||
160 | preemptirqsoff - Similar to irqsoff and preemptoff, but traces and | ||
161 | records the largest time for which irqs and/or preemption | ||
162 | is disabled. | ||
163 | |||
164 | wakeup - Traces and records the max latency that it takes for | ||
165 | the highest priority task to get scheduled after | ||
166 | it has been woken up. | ||
167 | |||
168 | none - This is not a tracer. To remove all tracers from tracing | ||
169 | simply echo "none" into current_tracer. | ||
170 | |||
171 | |||
172 | Examples of using the tracer | ||
173 | ---------------------------- | ||
174 | |||
175 | Here are typical examples of using the tracers when controlling them only | ||
176 | with the debugfs interface (without using any user-land utilities). | ||
177 | |||
178 | Output format: | ||
179 | -------------- | ||
180 | |||
181 | Here is an example of the output format of the file "trace" | ||
182 | |||
183 | -------- | ||
184 | # tracer: ftrace | ||
185 | # | ||
186 | # TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION | ||
187 | # | | | | | | ||
188 | bash-4251 [01] 10152.583854: path_put <-path_walk | ||
189 | bash-4251 [01] 10152.583855: dput <-path_put | ||
190 | bash-4251 [01] 10152.583855: _atomic_dec_and_lock <-dput | ||
191 | -------- | ||
192 | |||
193 | A header is printed with the tracer name that is represented by the trace. | ||
194 | In this case the tracer is "ftrace". Then a header showing the format. Task | ||
195 | name "bash", the task PID "4251", the CPU that it was running on | ||
196 | "01", the timestamp in <secs>.<usecs> format, the function name that was | ||
197 | traced "path_put" and the parent function that called this function | ||
198 | "path_walk". The timestamp is the time at which the function was | ||
199 | entered. | ||
200 | |||
201 | The sched_switch tracer also includes tracing of task wakeups and | ||
202 | context switches. | ||
203 | |||
204 | ksoftirqd/1-7 [01] 1453.070013: 7:115:R + 2916:115:S | ||
205 | ksoftirqd/1-7 [01] 1453.070013: 7:115:R + 10:115:S | ||
206 | ksoftirqd/1-7 [01] 1453.070013: 7:115:R ==> 10:115:R | ||
207 | events/1-10 [01] 1453.070013: 10:115:S ==> 2916:115:R | ||
208 | kondemand/1-2916 [01] 1453.070013: 2916:115:S ==> 7:115:R | ||
209 | ksoftirqd/1-7 [01] 1453.070013: 7:115:S ==> 0:140:R | ||
210 | |||
211 | Wake ups are represented by a "+" and the context switches are shown as | ||
212 | "==>". The format is: | ||
213 | |||
214 | Context switches: | ||
215 | |||
216 | Previous task Next Task | ||
217 | |||
218 | <pid>:<prio>:<state> ==> <pid>:<prio>:<state> | ||
219 | |||
220 | Wake ups: | ||
221 | |||
222 | Current task Task waking up | ||
223 | |||
224 | <pid>:<prio>:<state> + <pid>:<prio>:<state> | ||
225 | |||
226 | The prio is the internal kernel priority, which is the inverse of the | ||
227 | priority that is usually displayed by user-space tools. Zero represents | ||
228 | the highest priority (99). Prio 100 starts the "nice" priorities with | ||
229 | 100 being equal to nice -20 and 139 being nice 19. The prio "140" is | ||
230 | reserved for the idle task which is the lowest priority thread (pid 0). | ||
231 | |||
232 | |||
233 | Latency trace format | ||
234 | -------------------- | ||
235 | |||
236 | For traces that display latency times, the latency_trace file gives | ||
237 | somewhat more information to see why a latency happened. Here is a typical | ||
238 | trace. | ||
239 | |||
240 | # tracer: irqsoff | ||
241 | # | ||
242 | irqsoff latency trace v1.1.5 on 2.6.26-rc8 | ||
243 | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
244 | latency: 97 us, #3/3, CPU#0 | (M:preempt VP:0, KP:0, SP:0 HP:0 #P:2) | ||
245 | ----------------- | ||
246 | | task: swapper-0 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:0 rt_prio:0) | ||
247 | ----------------- | ||
248 | => started at: apic_timer_interrupt | ||
249 | => ended at: do_softirq | ||
250 | |||
251 | # _------=> CPU# | ||
252 | # / _-----=> irqs-off | ||
253 | # | / _----=> need-resched | ||
254 | # || / _---=> hardirq/softirq | ||
255 | # ||| / _--=> preempt-depth | ||
256 | # |||| / | ||
257 | # ||||| delay | ||
258 | # cmd pid ||||| time | caller | ||
259 | # \ / ||||| \ | / | ||
260 | <idle>-0 0d..1 0us+: trace_hardirqs_off_thunk (apic_timer_interrupt) | ||
261 | <idle>-0 0d.s. 97us : __do_softirq (do_softirq) | ||
262 | <idle>-0 0d.s1 98us : trace_hardirqs_on (do_softirq) | ||
263 | |||
264 | |||
265 | |||
266 | This shows that the current tracer is "irqsoff" tracing the time for which | ||
267 | interrupts were disabled. It gives the trace version and the version | ||
268 | of the kernel upon which this was executed on (2.6.26-rc8). Then it displays | ||
269 | the max latency in microsecs (97 us). The number of trace entries displayed | ||
270 | and the total number recorded (both are three: #3/3). The type of | ||
271 | preemption that was used (PREEMPT). VP, KP, SP, and HP are always zero | ||
272 | and are reserved for later use. #P is the number of online CPUS (#P:2). | ||
273 | |||
274 | The task is the process that was running when the latency occurred. | ||
275 | (swapper pid: 0). | ||
276 | |||
277 | The start and stop (the functions in which the interrupts were disabled and | ||
278 | enabled respectively) that caused the latencies: | ||
279 | |||
280 | apic_timer_interrupt is where the interrupts were disabled. | ||
281 | do_softirq is where they were enabled again. | ||
282 | |||
283 | The next lines after the header are the trace itself. The header | ||
284 | explains which is which. | ||
285 | |||
286 | cmd: The name of the process in the trace. | ||
287 | |||
288 | pid: The PID of that process. | ||
289 | |||
290 | CPU#: The CPU which the process was running on. | ||
291 | |||
292 | irqs-off: 'd' interrupts are disabled. '.' otherwise. | ||
293 | |||
294 | need-resched: 'N' task need_resched is set, '.' otherwise. | ||
295 | |||
296 | hardirq/softirq: | ||
297 | 'H' - hard irq occurred inside a softirq. | ||
298 | 'h' - hard irq is running | ||
299 | 's' - soft irq is running | ||
300 | '.' - normal context. | ||
301 | |||
302 | preempt-depth: The level of preempt_disabled | ||
303 | |||
304 | The above is mostly meaningful for kernel developers. | ||
305 | |||
306 | time: This differs from the trace file output. The trace file output | ||
307 | includes an absolute timestamp. The timestamp used by the | ||
308 | latency_trace file is relative to the start of the trace. | ||
309 | |||
310 | delay: This is just to help catch your eye a bit better. And | ||
311 | needs to be fixed to be only relative to the same CPU. | ||
312 | The marks are determined by the difference between this | ||
313 | current trace and the next trace. | ||
314 | '!' - greater than preempt_mark_thresh (default 100) | ||
315 | '+' - greater than 1 microsecond | ||
316 | ' ' - less than or equal to 1 microsecond. | ||
317 | |||
318 | The rest is the same as the 'trace' file. | ||
319 | |||
320 | |||
321 | iter_ctrl | ||
322 | --------- | ||
323 | |||
324 | The iter_ctrl file is used to control what gets printed in the trace | ||
325 | output. To see what is available, simply cat the file: | ||
326 | |||
327 | cat /debug/tracing/iter_ctrl | ||
328 | print-parent nosym-offset nosym-addr noverbose noraw nohex nobin \ | ||
329 | noblock nostacktrace nosched-tree | ||
330 | |||
331 | To disable one of the options, echo in the option prepended with "no". | ||
332 | |||
333 | echo noprint-parent > /debug/tracing/iter_ctrl | ||
334 | |||
335 | To enable an option, leave off the "no". | ||
336 | |||
337 | echo sym-offset > /debug/tracing/iter_ctrl | ||
338 | |||
339 | Here are the available options: | ||
340 | |||
341 | print-parent - On function traces, display the calling function | ||
342 | as well as the function being traced. | ||
343 | |||
344 | print-parent: | ||
345 | bash-4000 [01] 1477.606694: simple_strtoul <-strict_strtoul | ||
346 | |||
347 | noprint-parent: | ||
348 | bash-4000 [01] 1477.606694: simple_strtoul | ||
349 | |||
350 | |||
351 | sym-offset - Display not only the function name, but also the offset | ||
352 | in the function. For example, instead of seeing just | ||
353 | "ktime_get", you will see "ktime_get+0xb/0x20". | ||
354 | |||
355 | sym-offset: | ||
356 | bash-4000 [01] 1477.606694: simple_strtoul+0x6/0xa0 | ||
357 | |||
358 | sym-addr - this will also display the function address as well as | ||
359 | the function name. | ||
360 | |||
361 | sym-addr: | ||
362 | bash-4000 [01] 1477.606694: simple_strtoul <c0339346> | ||
363 | |||
364 | verbose - This deals with the latency_trace file. | ||
365 | |||
366 | bash 4000 1 0 00000000 00010a95 [58127d26] 1720.415ms \ | ||
367 | (+0.000ms): simple_strtoul (strict_strtoul) | ||
368 | |||
369 | raw - This will display raw numbers. This option is best for use with | ||
370 | user applications that can translate the raw numbers better than | ||
371 | having it done in the kernel. | ||
372 | |||
373 | hex - Similar to raw, but the numbers will be in a hexadecimal format. | ||
374 | |||
375 | bin - This will print out the formats in raw binary. | ||
376 | |||
377 | block - TBD (needs update) | ||
378 | |||
379 | stacktrace - This is one of the options that changes the trace itself. | ||
380 | When a trace is recorded, so is the stack of functions. | ||
381 | This allows for back traces of trace sites. | ||
382 | |||
383 | sched-tree - TBD (any users??) | ||
384 | |||
385 | |||
386 | sched_switch | ||
387 | ------------ | ||
388 | |||
389 | This tracer simply records schedule switches. Here is an example | ||
390 | of how to use it. | ||
391 | |||
392 | # echo sched_switch > /debug/tracing/current_tracer | ||
393 | # echo 1 > /debug/tracing/tracing_enabled | ||
394 | # sleep 1 | ||
395 | # echo 0 > /debug/tracing/tracing_enabled | ||
396 | # cat /debug/tracing/trace | ||
397 | |||
398 | # tracer: sched_switch | ||
399 | # | ||

403 | bash-3997 [01] 240.132284: 3997:120:R ==> 4055:120:R | ||
404 | sleep-4055 [01] 240.132371: 4055:120:S ==> 3997:120:R | ||
405 | bash-3997 [01] 240.132454: 3997:120:R + 4055:120:S | ||
406 | bash-3997 [01] 240.132457: 3997:120:R ==> 4055:120:R | ||
407 | sleep-4055 [01] 240.132460: 4055:120:D ==> 3997:120:R | ||
408 | bash-3997 [01] 240.132463: 3997:120:R + 4055:120:D | ||
409 | bash-3997 [01] 240.132465: 3997:120:R ==> 4055:120:R | ||
410 | <idle>-0 [00] 240.132589: 0:140:R + 4:115:S | ||
411 | <idle>-0 [00] 240.132591: 0:140:R ==> 4:115:R | ||
412 | ksoftirqd/0-4 [00] 240.132595: 4:115:S ==> 0:140:R | ||
413 | <idle>-0 [00] 240.132598: 0:140:R + 4:115:S | ||
414 | <idle>-0 [00] 240.132599: 0:140:R ==> 4:115:R | ||
415 | ksoftirqd/0-4 [00] 240.132603: 4:115:S ==> 0:140:R | ||
416 | sleep-4055 [01] 240.133058: 4055:120:S ==> 3997:120:R | ||
417 | [...] | ||
418 | |||
419 | |||
420 | As we have discussed previously about this format, the header shows | ||
421 | the name of the trace and points to the options. The "FUNCTION" | ||
422 | is a misnomer since here it represents the wake ups and context | ||
423 | switches. | ||
424 | |||
425 | The sched_switch file only lists the wake ups (represented with '+') | ||
426 | and context switches ('==>') with the previous task or current task | ||
427 | first followed by the next task or task waking up. The format for both | ||
428 | of these is PID:KERNEL-PRIO:TASK-STATE. Remember that the KERNEL-PRIO | ||
429 | is the inverse of the actual priority with zero (0) being the highest | ||
430 | priority and the nice values starting at 100 (nice -20). Below is | ||
431 | a quick chart to map the kernel priority to user land priorities. | ||
432 | |||
433 | Kernel priority: 0 to 99 ==> user RT priority 99 to 0 | ||
434 | Kernel priority: 100 to 139 ==> user nice -20 to 19 | ||
435 | Kernel priority: 140 ==> idle task priority | ||
436 | |||
437 | The task states are: | ||
438 | |||
439 | R - running : wants to run, may not actually be running | ||
440 | S - sleep : process is waiting to be woken up (handles signals) | ||
441 | D - disk sleep (uninterruptible sleep) : process must be woken up | ||
442 | (ignores signals) | ||
443 | T - stopped : process suspended | ||
444 | t - traced : process is being traced (with something like gdb) | ||
445 | Z - zombie : process waiting to be cleaned up | ||
446 | X - unknown | ||
447 | |||
448 | |||
449 | ftrace_enabled | ||
450 | -------------- | ||
451 | |||
452 | The following tracers (listed below) give different output depending | ||
453 | on whether or not the sysctl ftrace_enabled is set. To set ftrace_enabled, | ||
454 | one can either use the sysctl function or set it via the proc | ||
455 | file system interface. | ||
456 | |||
457 | sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=1 | ||
458 | |||
459 | or | ||
460 | |||
461 | echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled | ||
462 | |||
463 | To disable ftrace_enabled simply replace the '1' with '0' in | ||
464 | the above commands. | ||
465 | |||
466 | When ftrace_enabled is set the tracers will also record the functions | ||
467 | that are within the trace. The descriptions of the tracers | ||
468 | will also show an example with ftrace enabled. | ||
469 | |||
470 | |||
471 | irqsoff | ||
472 | ------- | ||
473 | |||
474 | When interrupts are disabled, the CPU can not react to any other | ||
475 | external event (besides NMIs and SMIs). This prevents the timer | ||
476 | interrupt from triggering or the mouse interrupt from letting the | ||
477 | kernel know of a new mouse event. The result is a latency with the | ||
478 | reaction time. | ||
479 | |||
480 | The irqsoff tracer tracks the time for which interrupts are disabled. | ||
481 | When a new maximum latency is hit, the tracer saves the trace leading up | ||
482 | to that latency point so that every time a new maximum is reached, the old | ||
483 | saved trace is discarded and the new trace is saved. | ||
484 | |||
485 | To reset the maximum, echo 0 into tracing_max_latency. Here is an | ||
486 | example: | ||
487 | |||
488 | # echo irqsoff > /debug/tracing/current_tracer | ||
489 | # echo 0 > /debug/tracing/tracing_max_latency | ||
490 | # echo 1 > /debug/tracing/tracing_enabled | ||
491 | # ls -ltr | ||
492 | [...] | ||
493 | # echo 0 > /debug/tracing/tracing_enabled | ||
494 | # cat /debug/tracing/latency_trace | ||
495 | # tracer: irqsoff | ||
496 | # | ||
497 | irqsoff latency trace v1.1.5 on 2.6.26 | ||

520 | Here we see that that we had a latency of 12 microsecs (which is | ||
521 | very good). The _write_lock_irq in sys_setpgid disabled interrupts. | ||
522 | The difference between the 12 and the displayed timestamp 14us occurred | ||
523 | because the clock was incremented between the time of recording the max | ||
524 | latency and the time of recording the function that had that latency. | ||
525 | |||
526 | Note the above example had ftrace_enabled not set. If we set the | ||
527 | ftrace_enabled, we get a much larger output: | ||

572 | |||
573 | |||
574 | Here we traced a 50 microsecond latency. But we also see all the | ||
575 | functions that were called during that time. Note that by enabling | ||
576 | function tracing, we incur an added overhead. This overhead may | ||
577 | extend the latency times. But nevertheless, this trace has provided | ||
578 | some very helpful debugging information. | ||
579 | |||
580 | |||
581 | preemptoff | ||
582 | ---------- | ||
583 | |||
584 | When preemption is disabled, we may be able to receive interrupts but | ||
585 | the task cannot be preempted and a higher priority task must wait | ||
586 | for preemption to be enabled again before it can preempt a lower | ||
587 | priority task. | ||
588 | |||
589 | The preemptoff tracer traces the places that disable preemption. | ||
590 | Like the irqsoff tracer, it records the maximum latency for which preemption | ||
591 | was disabled. The control of preemptoff tracer is much like the irqsoff | ||
592 | tracer. | ||

625 | |||
626 | This has some more changes. Preemption was disabled when an interrupt | ||
627 | came in (notice the 'h'), and was enabled while doing a softirq. | ||
628 | (notice the 's'). But we also see that interrupts have been disabled | ||
629 | when entering the preempt off section and leaving it (the 'd'). | ||
630 | We do not know if interrupts were enabled in the mean time. | ||

687 | |||
688 | |||
689 | The above is an example of the preemptoff trace with ftrace_enabled | ||
690 | set. Here we see that interrupts were disabled the entire time. | ||
691 | The irq_enter code lets us know that we entered an interrupt 'h'. | ||
692 | Before that, the functions being traced still show that it is not | ||
693 | in an interrupt, but we can see from the functions themselves that | ||
694 | this is not the case. | ||
695 | |||
696 | Notice that __do_softirq when called does not have a preempt_count. | ||
697 | It may seem that we missed a preempt enabling. What really happened | ||
698 | is that the preempt count is held on the thread's stack and we | ||
699 | switched to the softirq stack (4K stacks in effect). The code | ||
700 | does not copy the preempt count, but because interrupts are disabled, | ||
701 | we do not need to worry about it. Having a tracer like this is good | ||
702 | for letting people know what really happens inside the kernel. | ||
703 | |||
704 | |||
705 | preemptirqsoff | ||
706 | -------------- | ||
707 | |||
708 | Knowing the locations that have interrupts disabled or preemption | ||
709 | disabled for the longest times is helpful. But sometimes we would | ||
710 | like to know when either preemption and/or interrupts are disabled. | ||
711 | |||
712 | Consider the following code: | ||
713 | |||
714 | local_irq_disable(); | ||
715 | call_function_with_irqs_off(); | ||
716 | preempt_disable(); | ||
717 | call_function_with_irqs_and_preemption_off(); | ||
718 | local_irq_enable(); | ||
719 | call_function_with_preemption_off(); | ||
720 | preempt_enable(); | ||
721 | |||
722 | The irqsoff tracer will record the total length of | ||
723 | call_function_with_irqs_off() and | ||
724 | call_function_with_irqs_and_preemption_off(). | ||
725 | |||
726 | The preemptoff tracer will record the total length of | ||
727 | call_function_with_irqs_and_preemption_off() and | ||
728 | call_function_with_preemption_off(). | ||
729 | |||
730 | But neither will trace the time that interrupts and/or preemption | ||
731 | is disabled. This total time is the time that we can not schedule. | ||
732 | To record this time, use the preemptirqsoff tracer. | ||
733 | |||
734 | Again, using this trace is much like the irqsoff and preemptoff tracers. | ||

768 | |||
769 | The trace_hardirqs_off_thunk is called from assembly on x86 when | ||
770 | interrupts are disabled in the assembly code. Without the function | ||
771 | tracing, we do not know if interrupts were enabled within the preemption | ||
772 | points. We do see that it started with preemption enabled. | ||
773 | |||

858 | |||
859 | |||
860 | This is a very interesting trace. It started with the preemption of | ||
861 | the ls task. We see that the task had the "need_resched" bit set | ||
862 | via the 'N' in the trace. Interrupts were disabled before the spin_lock | ||
863 | at the beginning of the trace. We see that a schedule took place to run | ||
864 | sshd. When the interrupts were enabled, we took an interrupt. | ||
865 | On return from the interrupt handler, the softirq ran. We took another | ||
866 | interrupt while running the softirq as we see from the capital 'H'. | ||
867 | |||
868 | |||
869 | wakeup | ||
870 | ------ | ||
871 | |||
872 | In a Real-Time environment it is very important to know the wakeup | ||
873 | time it takes for the highest priority task that is woken up to the | ||
874 | time that it executes. This is also known as "schedule latency". | ||
875 | I stress the point that this is about RT tasks. It is also important | ||
876 | to know the scheduling latency of non-RT tasks, but the average | ||
877 | schedule latency is better for non-RT tasks. Tools like | ||
878 | LatencyTop are more appropriate for such measurements. | ||
879 | |||
880 | Real-Time environments are interested in the worst case latency. | ||
881 | That is the longest latency it takes for something to happen, and | ||
882 | not the average. We can have a very fast scheduler that may only | ||
883 | have a large latency once in a while, but that would not work well | ||
884 | with Real-Time tasks. The wakeup tracer was designed to record | ||
885 | the worst case wakeups of RT tasks. Non-RT tasks are not recorded | ||
886 | because the tracer only records one worst case and tracing non-RT | ||
887 | tasks that are unpredictable will overwrite the worst case latency | ||
888 | of RT tasks. | ||
889 | |||
890 | Since this tracer only deals with RT tasks, we will run this slightly | ||
891 | differently than we did with the previous tracers. Instead of performing | ||
892 | an 'ls', we will run 'sleep 1' under 'chrt' which changes the | ||
893 | priority of the task. | ||

921 | |||
922 | |||
923 | |||
924 | Running this on an idle system, we see that it only took 4 microseconds | ||
925 | to perform the task switch. Note, since the trace marker in the | ||
926 | schedule is before the actual "switch", we stop the tracing when | ||
927 | the recorded task is about to schedule in. This may change if | ||
928 | we add a new marker at the end of the scheduler. | ||
929 | |||
930 | Notice that the recorded task is 'sleep' with the PID of 4901 and it | ||
931 | has an rt_prio of 5. This priority is user-space priority and not | ||
932 | the internal kernel priority. The policy is 1 for SCHED_FIFO and 2 | ||
933 | for SCHED_RR. | ||
934 | |||
935 | Doing the same with chrt -r 5 and ftrace_enabled set. | ||

990 | The interrupt went off while running ksoftirqd. This task runs at | ||
991 | SCHED_OTHER. Why did not we see the 'N' set early? This may be | ||
992 | a harmless bug with x86_32 and 4K stacks. On x86_32 with 4K stacks | ||
993 | configured, the interrupt and softirq run with their own stack. | ||
994 | Some information is held on the top of the task's stack (need_resched | ||
995 | and preempt_count are both stored there). The setting of the NEED_RESCHED | ||
996 | bit is done directly to the task's stack, but the reading of the | ||
997 | NEED_RESCHED is done by looking at the current stack, which in this case | ||
998 | is the stack for the hard interrupt. This hides the fact that NEED_RESCHED | ||
999 | has been set. We do not see the 'N' until we switch back to the task's | ||
1000 | assigned stack. | ||
1001 | |||
1002 | ftrace | ||
1003 | ------ | ||
1004 | |||
1005 | ftrace is not only the name of the tracing infrastructure, but it | ||
1006 | is also a name of one of the tracers. The tracer is the function | ||
1007 | tracer. Enabling the function tracer can be done from the | ||
1008 | debug file system. Make sure the ftrace_enabled is set otherwise | ||
1009 | this tracer is a nop. | ||
1010 | |||

1038 | |||
1039 | Note: ftrace uses ring buffers to store the above entries. The newest data | ||
1040 | may overwrite the oldest data. Sometimes using echo to stop the trace | ||
1041 | is not sufficient because the tracing could have overwritten the data | ||
1042 | that you wanted to record. For this reason, it is sometimes better to | ||
1043 | disable tracing directly from a program. This allows you to stop the | ||
1044 | tracing at the point that you hit the part that you are interested in. | ||
1045 | To disable the tracing directly from a C program, something like following | ||
1046 | code snippet can be used: | ||
1047 | |||
1048 | int trace_fd; | ||
1049 | [...] | ||
1050 | int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { | ||
1051 | [...] | ||
1052 | trace_fd = open("/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled", O_WRONLY); | ||
1053 | [...] | ||
1054 | if (condition_hit()) { | ||
1055 | write(trace_fd, "0", 1); | ||
1056 | } | ||
1057 | [...] | ||
1058 | } | ||
1059 | |||
1060 | Note: Here we hard coded the path name. The debugfs mount is not | ||
1061 | guaranteed to be at /debug (and is more commonly at /sys/kernel/debug). | ||
1062 | For simple one time traces, the above is sufficent. For anything else, | ||
1063 | a search through /proc/mounts may be needed to find where the debugfs | ||
1064 | file-system is mounted. | ||
1065 | |||
1066 | dynamic ftrace | ||
1067 | -------------- | ||
1068 | |||
1069 | If CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is set, the system will run with | ||
1070 | virtually no overhead when function tracing is disabled. The way | ||
1071 | this works is the mcount function call (placed at the start of | ||
1072 | every kernel function, produced by the -pg switch in gcc), starts | ||
1073 | of pointing to a simple return. (Enabling FTRACE will include the | ||
1074 | -pg switch in the compiling of the kernel.) | ||
1075 | |||
1076 | When dynamic ftrace is initialized, it calls kstop_machine to make | ||
1077 | the machine act like a uniprocessor so that it can freely modify code | ||
1078 | without worrying about other processors executing that same code. At | ||
1079 | initialization, the mcount calls are changed to call a "record_ip" | ||
1080 | function. After this, the first time a kernel function is called, | ||
1081 | it has the calling address saved in a hash table. | ||
1082 | |||
1083 | Later on the ftraced kernel thread is awoken and will again call | ||
1084 | kstop_machine if new functions have been recorded. The ftraced thread | ||
1085 | will change all calls to mcount to "nop". Just calling mcount | ||
1086 | and having mcount return has shown a 10% overhead. By converting | ||
1087 | it to a nop, there is no measurable overhead to the system. | ||
1088 | |||
1089 | One special side-effect to the recording of the functions being | ||
1090 | traced is that we can now selectively choose which functions we | ||
1091 | wish to trace and which ones we want the mcount calls to remain as | ||
1092 | nops. | ||
1093 | |||
1094 | Two files are used, one for enabling and one for disabling the tracing | ||
1095 | of specified functions. They are: | ||
1096 | |||
1097 | set_ftrace_filter | ||
1098 | |||
1099 | and | ||
1100 | |||
1101 | set_ftrace_notrace | ||
1102 | |||
1103 | A list of available functions that you can add to these files is listed | ||
1104 | in: | ||

1143 | |||
1144 | <match>* - will match functions that begin with <match> | ||

1247 | |||
1248 | We can see that there's no more lock or preempt tracing. | ||
1249 | |||
1250 | ftraced | ||
1251 | ------- | ||
1252 | |||
1253 | As mentioned above, when dynamic ftrace is configured in, a kernel | ||
1254 | thread wakes up once a second and checks to see if there are mcount | ||
1255 | calls that need to be converted into nops. If there are not any, then | ||
1256 | it simply goes back to sleep. But if there are some, it will call | ||
1257 | kstop_machine to convert the calls to nops. | ||
1258 | |||
1259 | There may be a case in which you do not want this added latency. | ||
1260 | Perhaps you are doing some audio recording and this activity might | ||
1261 | cause skips in the playback. There is an interface to disable | ||
1262 | and enable the "ftraced" kernel thread. | ||
1263 | |||
1264 | # echo 0 > /debug/tracing/ftraced_enabled | ||
1265 | |||
1266 | This will disable the calling of kstop_machine to update the | ||
1267 | mcount calls to nops. Remember that there is a large overhead | ||
1268 | to calling mcount. Without this kernel thread, that overhead will | ||
1269 | exist. | ||
1270 | |||
1271 | If there are recorded calls to mcount, any write to the ftraced_enabled | ||
1272 | file will cause the kstop_machine to run. This means that a | ||
1273 | user can manually perform the updates when they want to by simply | ||
1274 | echoing a '0' into the ftraced_enabled file. | ||
1275 | |||
1276 | The updates are also done at the beginning of enabling a tracer | ||
1277 | that uses ftrace function recording. | ||
1278 | |||
1279 | |||
1280 | trace_pipe | ||
1281 | ---------- | ||
1282 | |||
1283 | The trace_pipe outputs the same content as the trace file, but the effect | ||
1284 | on the tracing is different. Every read from trace_pipe is consumed. | ||
1285 | This means that subsequent reads will be different. The trace | ||
1286 | is live. | ||
1287 | |||

1313 | |||
1314 | Note, reading the trace_pipe file will block until more input is added. | ||
1315 | By changing the tracer, trace_pipe will issue an EOF. We needed | ||
1316 | to set the ftrace tracer _before_ cating the trace_pipe file. | ||
1317 | |||
1318 | |||
1319 | trace entries | ||
1320 | ------------- | ||
1321 | |||
1322 | Having too much or not enough data can be troublesome in diagnosing | ||
1323 | an issue in the kernel. The file trace_entries is used to modify | ||
1324 | the size of the internal trace buffers. The number listed | ||
1325 | is the number of entries that can be recorded per CPU. To know | ||
1326 | the full size, multiply the number of possible CPUS with the | ||
1327 | number of entries. | ||
1328 | |||
1329 | # cat /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
1330 | 65620 | ||
1331 | |||
1332 | Note, to modify this, you must have tracing completely disabled. To do that, | ||
1333 | echo "none" into the current_tracer. If the current_tracer is not set | ||
1334 | to "none", an EINVAL error will be returned. | ||
1335 | |||
1336 | # echo none > /debug/tracing/current_tracer | ||
1337 | # echo 100000 > /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
1338 | # cat /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
1339 | 100045 | ||
1340 | |||
1341 | |||
1342 | Notice that we echoed in 100,000 but the size is 100,045. The entries | ||
1343 | are held in individual pages. It allocates the number of pages it takes | ||
1344 | to fulfill the request. If more entries may fit on the last page | ||
1345 | then they will be added. | ||
1346 | |||
1347 | # echo 1 > /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
1348 | # cat /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
1349 | 85 | ||
1350 | |||
1351 | This shows us that 85 entries can fit in a single page. | ||
1352 | |||
1353 | The number of pages which will be allocated is limited to a percentage | ||
1354 | of available memory. Allocating too much will produce an error. | ||
1355 | |||
1356 | # echo 1000000000000 > /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
1357 | -bash: echo: write error: Cannot allocate memory | ||

452 | |||
453 | Sysfs Interface for Userspace (OPTIONAL) | ||
454 | ======================================== | ||
455 | Platforms which use the "gpiolib" implementors framework may choose to | ||
456 | configure a sysfs user interface to GPIOs. This is different from the | ||
457 | debugfs interface, since it provides control over GPIO direction and | ||
458 | value instead of just showing a gpio state summary. Plus, it could be | ||
459 | present on production systems without debugging support. | ||
460 | |||
461 | Given approprate hardware documentation for the system, userspace could | ||
462 | know for example that GPIO #23 controls the write protect line used to | ||
463 | protect boot loader segments in flash memory. System upgrade procedures | ||
464 | may need to temporarily remove that protection, first importing a GPIO, | ||
465 | then changing its output state, then updating the code before re-enabling | ||
466 | the write protection. In normal use, GPIO #23 would never be touched, | ||
467 | and the kernel would have no need to know about it. | ||
468 | |||
469 | Again depending on appropriate hardware documentation, on some systems | ||
470 | userspace GPIO can be used to determine system configuration data that | ||
471 | standard kernels won't know about. And for some tasks, simple userspace | ||
472 | GPIO drivers could be all that the system really needs. | ||
473 | |||
474 | Note that standard kernel drivers exist for common "LEDs and Buttons" | ||
475 | GPIO tasks: "leds-gpio" and "gpio_keys", respectively. Use those | ||
476 | instead of talking directly to the GPIOs; they integrate with kernel | ||
477 | frameworks better than your userspace code could. | ||
478 | |||
479 | |||
480 | Paths in Sysfs | ||
481 | -------------- | ||
482 | There are three kinds of entry in /sys/class/gpio: | ||
483 | |||
484 | - Control interfaces used to get userspace control over GPIOs; | ||
485 | |||
486 | - GPIOs themselves; and | ||
487 | |||
488 | - GPIO controllers ("gpio_chip" instances). | ||
489 | |||
490 | That's in addition to standard files including the "device" symlink. | ||
491 | |||
492 | The control interfaces are write-only: | ||
493 | |||
494 | /sys/class/gpio/ | ||
495 | |||
496 | "export" ... Userspace may ask the kernel to export control of | ||
497 | a GPIO to userspace by writing its number to this file. | ||
498 | |||
499 | Example: "echo 19 > export" will create a "gpio19" node | ||
500 | for GPIO #19, if that's not requested by kernel code. | ||
501 | |||
502 | "unexport" ... Reverses the effect of exporting to userspace. | ||
503 | |||
504 | Example: "echo 19 > unexport" will remove a "gpio19" | ||
505 | node exported using the "export" file. | ||
506 | |||
507 | GPIO signals have paths like /sys/class/gpio/gpio42/ (for GPIO #42) | ||
508 | and have the following read/write attributes: | ||
509 | |||
510 | /sys/class/gpio/gpioN/ | ||
511 | |||
512 | "direction" ... reads as either "in" or "out". This value may | ||
513 | normally be written. Writing as "out" defaults to | ||
514 | initializing the value as low. To ensure glitch free | ||
515 | operation, values "low" and "high" may be written to | ||
516 | configure the GPIO as an output with that initial value. | ||
517 | |||
518 | Note that this attribute *will not exist* if the kernel | ||
519 | doesn't support changing the direction of a GPIO, or | ||
520 | it was exported by kernel code that didn't explicitly | ||
521 | allow userspace to reconfigure this GPIO's direction. | ||
522 | |||
523 | "value" ... reads as either 0 (low) or 1 (high). If the GPIO | ||
524 | is configured as an output, this value may be written; | ||
525 | any nonzero value is treated as high. | ||
526 | |||
527 | GPIO controllers have paths like /sys/class/gpio/chipchip42/ (for the | ||
528 | controller implementing GPIOs starting at #42) and have the following | ||
529 | read-only attributes: | ||
530 | |||
531 | /sys/class/gpio/gpiochipN/ | ||
532 | |||
533 | "base" ... same as N, the first GPIO managed by this chip | ||
534 | |||
535 | "label" ... provided for diagnostics (not always unique) | ||
536 | |||
537 | "ngpio" ... how many GPIOs this manges (N to N + ngpio - 1) | ||
538 | |||
539 | Board documentation should in most cases cover what GPIOs are used for | ||
540 | what purposes. However, those numbers are not always stable; GPIOs on | ||
541 | a daughtercard might be different depending on the base board being used, | ||
542 | or other cards in the stack. In such cases, you may need to use the | ||
543 | gpiochip nodes (possibly in conjunction with schematics) to determine | ||
544 | the correct GPIO number to use for a given signal. | ||
545 | |||
546 | |||
547 | Exporting from Kernel code | ||
548 | -------------------------- | ||
549 | Kernel code can explicitly manage exports of GPIOs which have already been | ||
550 | requested using gpio_request(): | ||
551 | |||
552 | /* export the GPIO to userspace */ | ||
553 | int gpio_export(unsigned gpio, bool direction_may_change); | ||
554 | |||
555 | /* reverse gpio_export() */ | ||
556 | void gpio_unexport(); | ||
557 | |||
558 | After a kernel driver requests a GPIO, it may only be made available in | ||
559 | the sysfs interface by gpio_export(). The driver can control whether the | ||
560 | signal direction may change. This helps drivers prevent userspace code | ||
561 | from accidentally clobbering important system state. | ||
562 | |||
563 | This explicit exporting can help with debugging (by making some kinds | ||
564 | of experiments easier), or can provide an always-there interface that's | ||
565 | suitable for documenting as part of a board support package. | ||

16 | Description | ||
17 | ----------- | ||
18 | |||
19 | WARNING: If you have an '810' or '815' motherboard, your standard I2C | ||
20 | temperature sensors are most likely on the 801's I2C bus. You want the | ||
21 | i2c-i801 driver for those, not this driver. | ||
22 | |||
23 | Now for the i2c-i810... | ||
24 | |||
25 | The GMCH chip contains two I2C interfaces. | ||
26 | |||
27 | The first interface is used for DDC (Data Display Channel) which is a | ||
28 | serial channel through the VGA monitor connector to a DDC-compliant | ||
29 | monitor. This interface is defined by the Video Electronics Standards | ||
30 | Association (VESA). The standards are available for purchase at | ||
31 | http://www.vesa.org . | ||
32 | |||
33 | The second interface is a general-purpose I2C bus. It may be connected to a | ||
34 | TV-out chip such as the BT869 or possibly to a digital flat-panel display. | ||

39 | Both busses use the i2c-algo-bit driver for 'bit banging' | ||
40 | and support for specific transactions is provided by i2c-algo-bit. | ||
41 | |||
42 | Issues | ||
43 | ------ | ||
44 | |||
45 | If you enable bus testing in i2c-algo-bit (insmod i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1), | ||
46 | the test may fail; if so, the i2c-i810 driver won't be inserted. However, | ||
47 | we think this has been fixed. | ||

1 | This is a summary of the most important conventions for use of fault | ||
2 | codes in the I2C/SMBus stack. | ||
3 | |||
4 | |||
5 | A "Fault" is not always an "Error" | ||
6 | ---------------------------------- | ||
7 | Not all fault reports imply errors; "page faults" should be a familiar | ||
8 | example. Software often retries idempotent operations after transient | ||
9 | faults. There may be fancier recovery schemes that are appropriate in | ||
10 | some cases, such as re-initializing (and maybe resetting). After such | ||
11 | recovery, triggered by a fault report, there is no error. | ||
12 | |||
13 | In a similar way, sometimes a "fault" code just reports one defined | ||
14 | result for an operation ... it doesn't indicate that anything is wrong | ||
15 | at all, just that the outcome wasn't on the "golden path". | ||
16 | |||
17 | In short, your I2C driver code may need to know these codes in order | ||
18 | to respond correctly. Other code may need to rely on YOUR code reporting | ||
19 | the right fault code, so that it can (in turn) behave correctly. | ||
20 | |||
21 | |||
22 | I2C and SMBus fault codes | ||
23 | ------------------------- | ||
24 | These are returned as negative numbers from most calls, with zero or | ||
25 | some positive number indicating a non-fault return. The specific | ||
26 | numbers associated with these symbols differ between architectures, | ||
27 | though most Linux systems use <asm-generic/errno*.h> numbering. | ||
28 | |||
29 | Note that the descriptions here are not exhaustive. There are other | ||
30 | codes that may be returned, and other cases where these codes should | ||
31 | be returned. However, drivers should not return other codes for these | ||
32 | cases (unless the hardware doesn't provide unique fault reports). | ||
33 | |||
34 | Also, codes returned by adapter probe methods follow rules which are | ||
35 | specific to their host bus (such as PCI, or the platform bus). | ||
36 | |||
37 | |||
38 | EAGAIN | ||
39 | Returned by I2C adapters when they lose arbitration in master | ||
40 | transmit mode: some other master was transmitting different | ||
41 | data at the same time. | ||
42 | |||
43 | Also returned when trying to invoke an I2C operation in an | ||
44 | atomic context, when some task is already using that I2C bus | ||
45 | to execute some other operation. | ||
46 | |||
47 | EBADMSG | ||
48 | Returned by SMBus logic when an invalid Packet Error Code byte | ||
49 | is received. This code is a CRC covering all bytes in the | ||
50 | transaction, and is sent before the terminating STOP. This | ||
51 | fault is only reported on read transactions; the SMBus slave | ||
52 | may have a way to report PEC mismatches on writes from the | ||
53 | host. Note that even if PECs are in use, you should not rely | ||
54 | on these as the only way to detect incorrect data transfers. | ||
55 | |||
56 | EBUSY | ||
57 | Returned by SMBus adapters when the bus was busy for longer | ||
58 | than allowed. This usually indicates some device (maybe the | ||
59 | SMBus adapter) needs some fault recovery (such as resetting), | ||
60 | or that the reset was attempted but failed. | ||
61 | |||
62 | EINVAL | ||
63 | This rather vague error means an invalid parameter has been | ||
64 | detected before any I/O operation was started. Use a more | ||
65 | specific fault code when you can. | ||
66 | |||
67 | One example would be a driver trying an SMBus Block Write | ||
68 | with block size outside the range of 1-32 bytes. | ||
69 | |||
70 | EIO | ||
71 | This rather vague error means something went wrong when | ||
72 | performing an I/O operation. Use a more specific fault | ||
73 | code when you can. | ||
74 | |||
75 | ENODEV | ||
76 | Returned by driver probe() methods. This is a bit more | ||
77 | specific than ENXIO, implying the problem isn't with the | ||
78 | address, but with the device found there. Driver probes | ||
79 | may verify the device returns *correct* responses, and | ||
80 | return this as appropriate. (The driver core will warn | ||
81 | about probe faults other than ENXIO and ENODEV.) | ||
82 | |||
83 | ENOMEM | ||
84 | Returned by any component that can't allocate memory when | ||
85 | it needs to do so. | ||
86 | |||
87 | ENXIO | ||
88 | Returned by I2C adapters to indicate that the address phase | ||
89 | of a transfer didn't get an ACK. While it might just mean | ||
90 | an I2C device was temporarily not responding, usually it | ||
91 | means there's nothing listening at that address. | ||
92 | |||
93 | Returned by driver probe() methods to indicate that they | ||
94 | found no device to bind to. (ENODEV may also be used.) | ||
95 | |||
96 | EOPNOTSUPP | ||
97 | Returned by an adapter when asked to perform an operation | ||
98 | that it doesn't, or can't, support. | ||
99 | |||
100 | For example, this would be returned when an adapter that | ||
101 | doesn't support SMBus block transfers is asked to execute | ||
102 | one. In that case, the driver making that request should | ||
103 | have verified that functionality was supported before it | ||
104 | made that block transfer request. | ||
105 | |||
106 | Similarly, if an I2C adapter can't execute all legal I2C | ||
107 | messages, it should return this when asked to perform a | ||
108 | transaction it can't. (These limitations can't be seen in | ||
109 | the adapter's functionality mask, since the assumption is | ||
110 | that if an adapter supports I2C it supports all of I2C.) | ||
111 | |||
112 | EPROTO | ||
113 | Returned when slave does not conform to the relevant I2C | ||
114 | or SMBus (or chip-specific) protocol specifications. One | ||
115 | case is when the length of an SMBus block data response | ||
116 | (from the SMBus slave) is outside the range 1-32 bytes. | ||
117 | |||
118 | ETIMEDOUT | ||
119 | This is returned by drivers when an operation took too much | ||
120 | time, and was aborted before it completed. | ||
121 | |||
122 | SMBus adapters may return it when an operation took more | ||
123 | time than allowed by the SMBus specification; for example, | ||
124 | when a slave stretches clocks too far. I2C has no such | ||
125 | timeouts, but it's normal for I2C adapters to impose some | ||
126 | arbitrary limits (much longer than SMBus!) too. | ||

86 | .resume = example_resume, | ||
87 | }; | ||
88 | |||
89 | |||
90 | Updating the client | ||
91 | ------------------- | ||
92 | |||
93 | The new style binding model will check against a list of supported | ||
94 | devices and their associated address supplied by the code registering | ||
95 | the busses. This means that the driver .attach_adapter and | ||
96 | .detach_adapter methods can be removed, along with the addr_data, | ||
97 | as follows: | ||
98 | |||
99 | - static struct i2c_driver example_driver; | ||
100 | |||
101 | - static unsigned short ignore[] = { I2C_CLIENT_END }; | ||
102 | - static unsigned short normal_addr[] = { OUR_ADDR, I2C_CLIENT_END }; | ||
103 | |||
104 | - I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD; | ||
105 | |||
106 | - static int example_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adap) | ||
107 | - { | ||
108 | - return i2c_probe(adap, &addr_data, example_attach); | ||
109 | - } | ||
110 | |||
111 | static struct i2c_driver example_driver = { | ||
112 | - .attach_adapter = example_attach_adapter, | ||
113 | - .detach_client = __devexit_p(example_detach), | ||
114 | } | ||
115 | |||
116 | Add the probe and remove methods to the i2c_driver, as so: | ||
117 | |||
118 | static struct i2c_driver example_driver = { | ||
119 | + .probe = example_probe, | ||
120 | + .remove = __devexit_p(example_remove), | ||
121 | } | ||
122 | |||
123 | Change the example_attach method to accept the new parameters | ||
124 | which include the i2c_client that it will be working with: | ||
125 | |||
126 | - static int example_attach(struct i2c_adapter *adap, int addr, int kind) | ||
127 | + static int example_probe(struct i2c_client *client, | ||
128 | + const struct i2c_device_id *id) | ||
129 | |||
130 | Change the name of example_attach to example_probe to align it with the | ||
131 | i2c_driver entry names. The rest of the probe routine will now need to be | ||
132 | changed as the i2c_client has already been setup for use. | ||
133 | |||
134 | The necessary client fields have already been setup before | ||
135 | the probe function is called, so the following client setup | ||
136 | can be removed: | ||
137 | |||
138 | - example->client.addr = addr; | ||
139 | - example->client.flags = 0; | ||
140 | - example->client.adapter = adap; | ||
141 | - | ||
142 | - strlcpy(client->i2c_client.name, "example", I2C_NAME_SIZE); | ||
143 | |||
144 | The i2c_set_clientdata is now: | ||
145 | |||
146 | - i2c_set_clientdata(&state->client, state); | ||
147 | + i2c_set_clientdata(client, state); | ||
148 | |||
149 | The call to i2c_attach_client is no longer needed, if the probe | ||
150 | routine exits successfully, then the driver will be automatically | ||
151 | attached by the core. Change the probe routine as so: | ||
152 | |||
153 | - ret = i2c_attach_client(&state->i2c_client); | ||
154 | - if (ret < 0) { | ||
155 | - dev_err(dev, "failed to attach client\n"); | ||
156 | - kfree(state); | ||
157 | - return ret; | ||
158 | - } | ||
159 | |||
160 | |||
161 | Remove the storage of 'struct i2c_client' from the 'struct example_state' | ||
162 | as we are provided with the i2c_client in our example_probe. Instead we | ||
163 | store a pointer to it for when it is needed. | ||
164 | |||
165 | struct example_state { | ||
166 | - struct i2c_client client; | ||
167 | + struct i2c_client *client; | ||
168 | |||
169 | the new i2c client as so: | ||
170 | |||
171 | - struct device *dev = &adap->dev; /* to use for dev_ reports */ | ||
172 | + struct device *dev = &i2c_client->dev; /* to use for dev_ reports */ | ||
173 | |||
174 | And remove the change after our client is attached, as the driver no | ||
175 | longer needs to register a new client structure with the core: | ||
176 | |||
177 | - dev = &state->i2c_client.dev; | ||
178 | |||
179 | In the probe routine, ensure that the new state has the client stored | ||
180 | in it: | ||
181 | |||
182 | static int example_probe(struct i2c_client *i2c_client, | ||
183 | const struct i2c_device_id *id) | ||
184 | { | ||
185 | struct example_state *state; | ||
186 | struct device *dev = &i2c_client->dev; | ||
187 | int ret; | ||
188 | |||
189 | state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct example_state), GFP_KERNEL); | ||
190 | if (state == NULL) { | ||
191 | dev_err(dev, "failed to create our state\n"); | ||
192 | return -ENOMEM; | ||
193 | } | ||
194 | |||
195 | + state->client = i2c_client; | ||
196 | |||
197 | Update the detach method, by changing the name to _remove and | ||
198 | to delete the i2c_detach_client call. It is possible that you | ||
199 | can also remove the ret variable as it is not not needed for | ||
200 | any of the core functions. | ||
201 | |||
202 | - static int __devexit example_detach(struct i2c_client *client) | ||
203 | + static int __devexit example_remove(struct i2c_client *client) | ||
204 | { | ||
205 | struct example_state *state = i2c_get_clientdata(client); | ||
206 | |||
207 | - i2c_detach_client(client); | ||
208 | |||
209 | And finally ensure that we have the correct ID table for the i2c-core | ||
210 | and other utilities: | ||
211 | |||
212 | + struct i2c_device_id example_idtable[] = { | ||
213 | + { "example", 0 }, | ||
214 | + { } | ||

224 | Device Detection (Standard driver model) | ||
225 | ---------------------------------------- | ||
226 | |||
227 | Sometimes you do not know in advance which I2C devices are connected to | ||
228 | a given I2C bus. This is for example the case of hardware monitoring | ||
229 | devices on a PC's SMBus. In that case, you may want to let your driver | ||
230 | detect supported devices automatically. This is how the legacy model | ||
231 | was working, and is now available as an extension to the standard | ||
232 | driver model (so that we can finally get rid of the legacy model.) | ||
233 | |||
234 | You simply have to define a detect callback which will attempt to | ||
235 | identify supported devices (returning 0 for supported ones and -ENODEV | ||
236 | for unsupported ones), a list of addresses to probe, and a device type | ||
237 | (or class) so that only I2C buses which may have that type of device | ||
238 | connected (and not otherwise enumerated) will be probed. The i2c | ||
239 | core will then call you back as needed and will instantiate a device | ||
240 | for you for every successful detection. | ||
241 | |||
242 | Note that this mechanism is purely optional and not suitable for all | ||
243 | devices. You need some reliable way to identify the supported devices | ||
244 | (typically using device-specific, dedicated identification registers), | ||
245 | otherwise misdetections are likely to occur and things can get wrong | ||
246 | quickly. | ||

1 | Paravirt_ops on IA64 | ||
2 | ==================== | ||
3 | 21 May 2008, Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> | ||
4 | |||
5 | |||
6 | Introduction | ||
7 | ------------ | ||
8 | The aim of this documentation is to help with maintainability and/or to | ||
9 | encourage people to use paravirt_ops/IA64. | ||
10 | |||
11 | paravirt_ops (pv_ops in short) is a way for virtualization support of | ||
12 | Linux kernel on x86. Several ways for virtualization support were | ||
13 | proposed, paravirt_ops is the winner. | ||
14 | On the other hand, now there are also several IA64 virtualization | ||
15 | technologies like kvm/IA64, xen/IA64 and many other academic IA64 | ||
16 | hypervisors so that it is good to add generic virtualization | ||
17 | infrastructure on Linux/IA64. | ||
18 | |||
19 | |||
20 | What is paravirt_ops? | ||
21 | --------------------- | ||
22 | It has been developed on x86 as virtualization support via API, not ABI. | ||
23 | It allows each hypervisor to override operations which are important for | ||
24 | hypervisors at API level. And it allows a single kernel binary to run on | ||
25 | all supported execution environments including native machine. | ||
26 | Essentially paravirt_ops is a set of function pointers which represent | ||
27 | operations corresponding to low level sensitive instructions and high | ||
28 | level functionalities in various area. But one significant difference | ||
29 | from usual function pointer table is that it allows optimization with | ||
30 | binary patch. It is because some of these operations are very | ||
31 | performance sensitive and indirect call overhead is not negligible. | ||
32 | With binary patch, indirect C function call can be transformed into | ||
33 | direct C function call or in-place execution to eliminate the overhead. | ||
34 | |||
35 | Thus, operations of paravirt_ops are classified into three categories. | ||
36 | - simple indirect call | ||
37 | These operations correspond to high level functionality so that the | ||
38 | overhead of indirect call isn't very important. | ||
39 | |||
40 | - indirect call which allows optimization with binary patch | ||
41 | Usually these operations correspond to low level instructions. They | ||
42 | are called frequently and performance critical. So the overhead is | ||
43 | very important. | ||
44 | |||
45 | - a set of macros for hand written assembly code | ||
46 | Hand written assembly codes (.S files) also need paravirtualization | ||
47 | because they include sensitive instructions or some of code paths in | ||
48 | them are very performance critical. | ||
49 | |||
50 | |||
51 | The relation to the IA64 machine vector | ||
52 | --------------------------------------- | ||
53 | Linux/IA64 has the IA64 machine vector functionality which allows the | ||
54 | kernel to switch implementations (e.g. initialization, ipi, dma api...) | ||
55 | depending on executing platform. | ||
56 | We can replace some implementations very easily defining a new machine | ||
57 | vector. Thus another approach for virtualization support would be | ||
58 | enhancing the machine vector functionality. | ||
59 | But paravirt_ops approach was taken because | ||
60 | - virtualization support needs wider support than machine vector does. | ||
61 | e.g. low level instruction paravirtualization. It must be | ||
62 | initialized very early before platform detection. | ||
63 | |||
64 | - virtualization support needs more functionality like binary patch. | ||
65 | Probably the calling overhead might not be very large compared to the | ||
66 | emulation overhead of virtualization. However in the native case, the | ||
67 | overhead should be eliminated completely. | ||
68 | A single kernel binary should run on each environment including native, | ||
69 | and the overhead of paravirt_ops on native environment should be as | ||
70 | small as possible. | ||
71 | |||
72 | - for full virtualization technology, e.g. KVM/IA64 or | ||
73 | Xen/IA64 HVM domain, the result would be | ||
74 | (the emulated platform machine vector. probably dig) + (pv_ops). | ||
75 | This means that the virtualization support layer should be under | ||
76 | the machine vector layer. | ||
77 | |||
78 | Possibly it might be better to move some function pointers from | ||
79 | paravirt_ops to machine vector. In fact, Xen domU case utilizes both | ||
80 | pv_ops and machine vector. | ||
81 | |||
82 | |||
83 | IA64 paravirt_ops | ||
84 | ----------------- | ||
85 | In this section, the concrete paravirt_ops will be discussed. | ||
86 | Because of the architecture difference between ia64 and x86, the | ||
87 | resulting set of functions is very different from x86 pv_ops. | ||
88 | |||
89 | - C function pointer tables | ||
90 | They are not very performance critical so that simple C indirect | ||
91 | function call is acceptable. The following structures are defined at | ||
92 | this moment. For details see linux/include/asm-ia64/paravirt.h | ||
93 | - struct pv_info | ||
94 | This structure describes the execution environment. | ||
95 | - struct pv_init_ops | ||
96 | This structure describes the various initialization hooks. | ||
97 | - struct pv_iosapic_ops | ||

102 | This structure describes hooks to steal time accounting. | ||
103 | |||
104 | - a set of indirect calls which need optimization | ||
105 | Currently this class of functions correspond to a subset of IA64 | ||
106 | intrinsics. At this moment the optimization with binary patch isn't | ||
107 | implemented yet. | ||
108 | struct pv_cpu_op is defined. For details see | ||
109 | linux/include/asm-ia64/paravirt_privop.h | ||
110 | Mostly they correspond to ia64 intrinsics 1-to-1. | ||
111 | Caveat: Now they are defined as C indirect function pointers, but in | ||
112 | order to support binary patch optimization, they will be changed | ||
113 | using GCC extended inline assembly code. | ||
114 | |||
115 | - a set of macros for hand written assembly code (.S files) | ||
116 | For maintenance purpose, the taken approach for .S files is single | ||
117 | source code and compile multiple times with different macros definitions. | ||
118 | Each pv_ops instance must define those macros to compile. | ||
119 | The important thing here is that sensitive, but non-privileged | ||
120 | instructions must be paravirtualized and that some privileged | ||
121 | instructions also need paravirtualization for reasonable performance. | ||
122 | Developers who modify .S files must be aware of that. At this moment | ||
123 | an easy checker is implemented to detect paravirtualization breakage. | ||
124 | But it doesn't cover all the cases. | ||
125 | |||
126 | Sometimes this set of macros is called pv_cpu_asm_op. But there is no | ||
127 | corresponding structure in the source code. | ||
128 | Those macros mostly 1:1 correspond to a subset of privileged | ||
129 | instructions. See linux/include/asm-ia64/native/inst.h. | ||
130 | And some functions written in assembly also need to be overrided so | ||
131 | that each pv_ops instance have to define some macros. Again see | ||
132 | linux/include/asm-ia64/native/inst.h. | ||
133 | |||
134 | |||
135 | Those structures must be initialized very early before start_kernel. | ||
136 | Probably initialized in head.S using multi entry point or some other trick. | ||
137 | For native case implementation see linux/arch/ia64/kernel/paravirt.c. | ||

199 | ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver-------------------- | ||
200 | 3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number | ||
201 | Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices | ||
202 | which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell | ||
203 | script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure. | ||
204 | This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still | ||
205 | need to do this procedure when: | ||
206 | a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7" | ||
207 | section. | ||
208 | b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you | ||
209 | add/delete one MOXA board. | ||
210 | c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the | ||
211 | shell script "msmknod" | ||
212 | |||
213 | The procedure is: | ||
214 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | ||
215 | # ./msmknod | ||
216 | |||
217 | This shell script will require the major number for dial-in | ||
218 | device and callout device to create tty device. You also need | ||
219 | to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major | ||
220 | numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If | ||
221 | you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7" | ||
222 | for more detailed procedure. | ||
223 | Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device | ||
224 | naming. | ||
225 | |||
226 | 3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities | ||
227 | Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the | ||
228 | all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once. | ||
229 | But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source | ||
230 | code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see | ||
231 | "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again. | ||
232 | |||
233 | Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run | ||
234 | |||
235 | # make clean; make install | ||
236 | |||
237 | !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||

153 | to activate the modular driver. You may run "lsmod" to check | 251 | # modprobe mxser <argument> |
154 | if "mxser.o" is activated. | ||

156 | 2. Create special files by executing "msmknod". | 253 | will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check |
157 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | 254 | if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the |
158 | # ./msmknod | 255 | <argument> is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more |
256 | information. | ||
257 | |||
258 | |||
259 | ------------- Load MOXA driver on boot -------------------- | ||
260 | 3.4.4 For the above description, you may manually execute | ||
261 | "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run | ||
262 | "rmmod mxser" to remove it. | ||
263 | However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to | ||
264 | eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be | ||
265 | achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify | ||
266 | the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver". | ||
159 | 267 | ||
160 | Default major numbers for dial-in device and callout device are | 268 | But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command |
161 | 174, 175. Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same | 269 | to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the |
162 | device naming. | 270 | rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser" |
271 | manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error | ||
272 | encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is | ||
273 | completed, follow the below step. | ||
163 | 274 | ||
164 | 3. Up to now, you may manually execute "insmod mxser" to activate | 275 | Run following command for setting rc files. |
165 | this driver and run "rmmod mxser" to remove it. However, it's | ||
166 | better to have a boot time configuration to eliminate manual | ||
167 | operation. | ||
168 | Boot time configuration can be achieved by rc file. Run following | ||
169 | command for setting rc files. | ||
170 | 276 | ||
171 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | 277 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver |
172 | # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d | 278 | # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d |
173 | # cd /etc/rc.d | 279 | # cd /etc/rc.d |
174 | 280 | ||
175 | You may have to modify part of the content in rc.mxser to specify | 281 | Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist, |
176 | parameters for ISA board. Please refer to rc.mxser for more detail. | 282 | create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission. |
177 | Find "rc.serial". If "rc.serial" doesn't exist, create it by vi. | 283 | Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line, |
178 | Add "rc.mxser" in last line. Next, open rc.local by vi | ||
179 | and append following content. | ||

338 | However, the second and subsequent slaves are not set | ||

1 | DM9000 Network driver | ||
2 | ===================== | ||
3 | |||

7 | |||
8 | Introduction | ||
9 | ------------ | ||
10 | |||
11 | This file describes how to use the DM9000 platform-device based network driver | ||
12 | that is contained in the files drivers/net/dm9000.c and drivers/net/dm9000.h. | ||
13 | |||
14 | The driver supports three DM9000 variants, the DM9000E which is the first chip | ||
15 | supported as well as the newer DM9000A and DM9000B devices. It is currently | ||
16 | maintained and tested by Ben Dooks, who should be CC: to any patches for this | ||
17 | driver. | ||
18 | |||
19 | |||
20 | Defining the platform device | ||
21 | ---------------------------- | ||
22 | |||
23 | The minimum set of resources attached to the platform device are as follows: | ||
24 | |||
25 | 1) The physical address of the address register | ||
26 | 2) The physical address of the data register | ||
27 | 3) The IRQ line the device's interrupt pin is connected to. | ||
28 | |||
29 | These resources should be specified in that order, as the ordering of the | ||
30 | two address regions is important (the driver expects these to be address | ||
31 | and then data). | ||
32 | |||
33 | An example from arch/arm/mach-s3c2410/mach-bast.c is: | ||
34 | |||
35 | static struct resource bast_dm9k_resource[] = { | ||
36 | [0] = { | ||
37 | .start = S3C2410_CS5 + BAST_PA_DM9000, | ||
38 | .end = S3C2410_CS5 + BAST_PA_DM9000 + 3, | ||
39 | .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM, | ||
40 | }, | ||
41 | [1] = { | ||
42 | .start = S3C2410_CS5 + BAST_PA_DM9000 + 0x40, | ||
43 | .end = S3C2410_CS5 + BAST_PA_DM9000 + 0x40 + 0x3f, | ||
44 | .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM, | ||
45 | }, | ||
46 | [2] = { | ||
47 | .start = IRQ_DM9000, | ||
48 | .end = IRQ_DM9000, | ||
49 | .flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ | IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHLEVEL, | ||
50 | } | ||
51 | }; | ||
52 | |||
53 | static struct platform_device bast_device_dm9k = { | ||
54 | .name = "dm9000", | ||
55 | .id = 0, | ||
56 | .num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(bast_dm9k_resource), | ||
57 | .resource = bast_dm9k_resource, | ||
58 | }; | ||
59 | |||
60 | Note the setting of the IRQ trigger flag in bast_dm9k_resource[2].flags, | ||
61 | as this will generate a warning if it is not present. The trigger from | ||
62 | the flags field will be passed to request_irq() when registering the IRQ | ||
63 | handler to ensure that the IRQ is setup correctly. | ||
64 | |||
65 | This shows a typical platform device, without the optional configuration | ||
66 | platform data supplied. The next example uses the same resources, but adds | ||
67 | the optional platform data to pass extra configuration data: | ||
68 | |||
69 | static struct dm9000_plat_data bast_dm9k_platdata = { | ||
70 | .flags = DM9000_PLATF_16BITONLY, | ||
71 | }; | ||
72 | |||
73 | static struct platform_device bast_device_dm9k = { | ||
74 | .name = "dm9000", | ||
75 | .id = 0, | ||
76 | .num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(bast_dm9k_resource), | ||
77 | .resource = bast_dm9k_resource, | ||
78 | .dev = { | ||
79 | .platform_data = &bast_dm9k_platdata, | ||
80 | } | ||
81 | }; | ||
82 | |||
83 | The platform data is defined in include/linux/dm9000.h and described below. | ||
84 | |||
85 | |||
86 | Platform data | ||
87 | ------------- | ||
88 | |||
89 | Extra platform data for the DM9000 can describe the IO bus width to the | ||
90 | device, whether or not an external PHY is attached to the device and | ||
91 | the availability of an external configuration EEPROM. | ||
92 | |||
93 | The flags for the platform data .flags field are as follows: | ||
94 | |||
95 | DM9000_PLATF_8BITONLY | ||
96 | |||
97 | The IO should be done with 8bit operations. | ||
98 | |||
99 | DM9000_PLATF_16BITONLY | ||
100 | |||
101 | The IO should be done with 16bit operations. | ||
102 | |||
103 | DM9000_PLATF_32BITONLY | ||
104 | |||
105 | The IO should be done with 32bit operations. | ||
106 | |||
107 | DM9000_PLATF_EXT_PHY | ||
108 | |||
109 | The chip is connected to an external PHY. | ||
110 | |||
111 | DM9000_PLATF_NO_EEPROM | ||
112 | |||
113 | This can be used to signify that the board does not have an | ||
114 | EEPROM, or that the EEPROM should be hidden from the user. | ||
115 | |||
116 | DM9000_PLATF_SIMPLE_PHY | ||
117 | |||
118 | Switch to using the simpler PHY polling method which does not | ||
119 | try and read the MII PHY state regularly. This is only available | ||
120 | when using the internal PHY. See the section on link state polling | ||
121 | for more information. | ||
122 | |||
123 | The config symbol DM9000_FORCE_SIMPLE_PHY_POLL, Kconfig entry | ||
124 | "Force simple NSR based PHY polling" allows this flag to be | ||
125 | forced on at build time. | ||
126 | |||
127 | |||
128 | PHY Link state polling | ||
129 | ---------------------- | ||
130 | |||
131 | The driver keeps track of the link state and informs the network core | ||
132 | about link (carrier) availablilty. This is managed by several methods | ||
133 | depending on the version of the chip and on which PHY is being used. | ||
134 | |||
135 | For the internal PHY, the original (and currently default) method is | ||
136 | to read the MII state, either when the status changes if we have the | ||
137 | necessary interrupt support in the chip or every two seconds via a | ||
138 | periodic timer. | ||
139 | |||
140 | To reduce the overhead for the internal PHY, there is now the option | ||
141 | of using the DM9000_FORCE_SIMPLE_PHY_POLL config, or DM9000_PLATF_SIMPLE_PHY | ||
142 | platform data option to read the summary information without the | ||
143 | expensive MII accesses. This method is faster, but does not print | ||
144 | as much information. | ||
145 | |||
146 | When using an external PHY, the driver currently has to poll the MII | ||
147 | link status as there is no method for getting an interrupt on link change. | ||
148 | |||
149 | |||
150 | DM9000A / DM9000B | ||
151 | ----------------- | ||
152 | |||
153 | These chips are functionally similar to the DM9000E and are supported easily | ||
154 | by the same driver. The features are: | ||
155 | |||
156 | 1) Interrupt on internal PHY state change. This means that the periodic | ||
157 | polling of the PHY status may be disabled on these devices when using | ||
158 | the internal PHY. | ||
159 | |||
160 | 2) TCP/UDP checksum offloading, which the driver does not currently support. | ||
161 | |||
162 | |||
163 | ethtool | ||
164 | ------- | ||
165 | |||
166 | The driver supports the ethtool interface for access to the driver | ||
167 | state information, the PHY state and the EEPROM. | ||

1206 | rcvbuf_policy - INTEGER | ||
1207 | Determines if the receive buffer is attributed to the socket or to | ||
1208 | association. SCTP supports the capability to create multiple | ||
1209 | associations on a single socket. When using this capability, it is | ||
1210 | possible that a single stalled association that's buffering a lot | ||
1211 | of data may block other associations from delivering their data by | ||
1212 | consuming all of the receive buffer space. To work around this, | ||
1213 | the rcvbuf_policy could be set to attribute the receiver buffer space | ||
1214 | to each association instead of the socket. This prevents the described | ||
1215 | blocking. | ||

1231 | Number of pages allowed for queueing by all SCTP sockets. | ||
1232 | |||
1233 | min: Below this number of pages SCTP is not bothered about its | ||
1234 | memory appetite. When amount of memory allocated by SCTP exceeds | ||
1235 | this number, SCTP starts to moderate memory usage. | ||
1236 | |||
1237 | pressure: This value was introduced to follow format of tcp_mem. | ||
1238 | |||
1239 | max: Number of pages allowed for queueing by all SCTP sockets. | ||

270 | Additional Configurations | ||
271 | ========================= | ||
272 | |||
273 | Configuring the Driver on Different Distributions | ||
274 | ------------------------------------------------- | ||
275 | Configuring a network driver to load properly when the system is started is | ||
276 | distribution dependent. Typically, the configuration process involves adding | ||
277 | an alias line to /etc/modprobe.conf as well as editing other system startup | ||
278 | scripts and/or configuration files. Many popular Linux distributions ship | ||
279 | with tools to make these changes for you. To learn the proper way to | ||
280 | configure a network device for your system, refer to your distribution | ||
281 | documentation. If during this process you are asked for the driver or module | ||
282 | name, the name for the Linux Base Driver for the Intel 10GbE Family of | ||
283 | Adapters is ixgb. | ||
284 | |||
285 | Viewing Link Messages | ||
286 | --------------------- | ||
287 | Link messages will not be displayed to the console if the distribution is | ||
288 | restricting system messages. In order to see network driver link messages on | ||
289 | your console, set dmesg to eight by entering the following: | ||
290 | |||
291 | dmesg -n 8 | ||
292 | |||
293 | NOTE: This setting is not saved across reboots. | ||
294 | |||
295 | |||
296 | Jumbo Frames | ||
297 | ------------ | ||
298 | The driver supports Jumbo Frames for all adapters. Jumbo Frames support is | ||
299 | enabled by changing the MTU to a value larger than the default of 1500. | ||
300 | The maximum value for the MTU is 16114. Use the ifconfig command to | ||
301 | increase the MTU size. For example: | ||
302 | |||
303 | ifconfig ethx mtu 9000 up | ||
304 | |||
305 | The maximum MTU setting for Jumbo Frames is 16114. This value coincides | ||
306 | with the maximum Jumbo Frames size of 16128. | ||
307 | |||
308 | |||
309 | Ethtool | ||
310 | ------- | ||
311 | The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and | ||
312 | diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. Ethtool | ||
313 | version 1.6 or later is required for this functionality. | ||
314 | |||
315 | The latest release of ethtool can be found from | ||
316 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel | ||
317 | |||
318 | NOTE: Ethtool 1.6 only supports a limited set of ethtool options. Support | ||
319 | for a more complete ethtool feature set can be enabled by upgrading | ||
320 | to the latest version. | ||
321 | |||
322 | |||
323 | NAPI | ||
324 | ---- | ||
325 | |||
326 | NAPI (Rx polling mode) is supported in the ixgb driver. NAPI is enabled | ||
327 | or disabled based on the configuration of the kernel. see CONFIG_IXGB_NAPI | ||
328 | |||
329 | See www.cyberus.ca/~hadi/usenix-paper.tgz for more information on NAPI. | ||
330 | |||
331 | |||
332 | Known Issues/Troubleshooting | ||
333 | ============================ | ||
334 | |||
335 | NOTE: After installing the driver, if your Intel Network Connection is not | ||
336 | working, verify in the "In This Release" section of the readme that you have | ||
337 | installed the correct driver. | ||
338 | |||
339 | Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter Cable Interoperability Issue with | ||
340 | Fujitsu XENPAK Module in SmartBits Chassis | ||
341 | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
342 | Excessive CRC errors may be observed if the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 | ||
343 | Server adapter is connected to a Fujitsu XENPAK CX4 module in a SmartBits | ||
344 | chassis using 15 m/24AWG cable assemblies manufactured by Fujitsu or Leoni. | ||
345 | The CRC errors may be received either by the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 | ||
346 | Server adapter or the SmartBits. If this situation occurs using a different | ||
347 | cable assembly may resolve the issue. | ||
348 | |||
349 | CX4 Server Adapter Cable Interoperability Issues with HP Procurve 3400cl | ||
350 | Switch Port | ||
351 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ||
352 | Excessive CRC errors may be observed if the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 Server | ||
353 | adapter is connected to an HP Procurve 3400cl switch port using short cables | ||
354 | (1 m or shorter). If this situation occurs, using a longer cable may resolve | ||
355 | the issue. | ||
356 | |||
357 | Excessive CRC errors may be observed using Fujitsu 24AWG cable assemblies that | ||
358 | Are 10 m or longer or where using a Leoni 15 m/24AWG cable assembly. The CRC | ||
359 | errors may be received either by the CX4 Server adapter or at the switch. If | ||
360 | this situation occurs, using a different cable assembly may resolve the issue. | ||
361 | |||
362 | |||
363 | Jumbo Frames System Requirement | ||
364 | ------------------------------- | ||
365 | Memory allocation failures have been observed on Linux systems with 64 MB | ||
366 | of RAM or less that are running Jumbo Frames. If you are using Jumbo | ||
367 | Frames, your system may require more than the advertised minimum | ||
368 | requirement of 64 MB of system memory. | ||
369 | |||
370 | |||
371 | Performance Degradation with Jumbo Frames | ||
372 | ----------------------------------------- | ||
373 | Degradation in throughput performance may be observed in some Jumbo frames | ||
374 | environments. If this is observed, increasing the application's socket buffer | ||
375 | size and/or increasing the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_*mem entry values may help. | ||
376 | See the specific application manual and /usr/src/linux*/Documentation/ | ||
377 | networking/ip-sysctl.txt for more details. | ||
378 | |||
379 | |||
380 | Allocating Rx Buffers when Using Jumbo Frames | ||
381 | --------------------------------------------- | ||
382 | Allocating Rx buffers when using Jumbo Frames on 2.6.x kernels may fail if | ||
383 | the available memory is heavily fragmented. This issue may be seen with PCI-X | ||
384 | adapters or with packet split disabled. This can be reduced or eliminated | ||
385 | by changing the amount of available memory for receive buffer allocation, by | ||
386 | increasing /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes. | ||
387 | |||
388 | |||
389 | Multiple Interfaces on Same Ethernet Broadcast Network | ||
390 | ------------------------------------------------------ | ||
391 | Due to the default ARP behavior on Linux, it is not possible to have | ||
392 | one system on two IP networks in the same Ethernet broadcast domain | ||
393 | (non-partitioned switch) behave as expected. All Ethernet interfaces | ||
394 | will respond to IP traffic for any IP address assigned to the system. | ||
395 | This results in unbalanced receive traffic. | ||
396 | |||
397 | If you have multiple interfaces in a server, do either of the following: | ||
398 | |||
399 | - Turn on ARP filtering by entering: | ||
400 | echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_filter | ||
401 | |||
402 | - Install the interfaces in separate broadcast domains - either in | ||
403 | different switches or in a switch partitioned to VLANs. | ||
404 | |||
405 | |||
406 | UDP Stress Test Dropped Packet Issue | ||
407 | -------------------------------------- | ||
408 | Under small packets UDP stress test with 10GbE driver, the Linux system | ||
409 | may drop UDP packets due to the fullness of socket buffers. You may want | ||
410 | to change the driver's Flow Control variables to the minimum value for | ||
411 | controlling packet reception. | ||
412 | |||
413 | |||
414 | Tx Hangs Possible Under Stress | ||
415 | ------------------------------ | ||
416 | Under stress conditions, if TX hangs occur, turning off TSO | ||
417 | "ethtool -K eth0 tso off" may resolve the problem. | ||

9 | Introduction | ||
10 | |||
11 | mac80211_hwsim is a Linux kernel module that can be used to simulate | ||
12 | arbitrary number of IEEE 802.11 radios for mac80211. It can be used to | ||
13 | test most of the mac80211 functionality and user space tools (e.g., | ||
14 | hostapd and wpa_supplicant) in a way that matches very closely with | ||
15 | the normal case of using real WLAN hardware. From the mac80211 view | ||
16 | point, mac80211_hwsim is yet another hardware driver, i.e., no changes | ||
17 | to mac80211 are needed to use this testing tool. | ||
18 | |||
19 | The main goal for mac80211_hwsim is to make it easier for developers | ||
20 | to test their code and work with new features to mac80211, hostapd, | ||
21 | and wpa_supplicant. The simulated radios do not have the limitations | ||
22 | of real hardware, so it is easy to generate an arbitrary test setup | ||
23 | and always reproduce the same setup for future tests. In addition, | ||
24 | since all radio operation is simulated, any channel can be used in | ||

26 | |||
27 | mac80211_hwsim kernel module has a parameter 'radios' that can be used | ||
28 | to select how many radios are simulated (default 2). This allows | ||
29 | configuration of both very simply setups (e.g., just a single access | ||
30 | point and a station) or large scale tests (multiple access points with | ||
31 | hundreds of stations). | ||
32 | |||
33 | mac80211_hwsim works by tracking the current channel of each virtual | ||
34 | radio and copying all transmitted frames to all other radios that are | ||
35 | currently enabled and on the same channel as the transmitting | ||
36 | radio. Software encryption in mac80211 is used so that the frames are | ||
37 | actually encrypted over the virtual air interface to allow more | ||
38 | complete testing of encryption. | ||
39 | |||
40 | A global monitoring netdev, hwsim#, is created independent of | ||
41 | mac80211. This interface can be used to monitor all transmitted frames | ||
42 | regardless of channel. | ||
43 | |||
44 | |||
45 | Simple example | ||
46 | |||
47 | This example shows how to use mac80211_hwsim to simulate two radios: | ||
48 | one to act as an access point and the other as a station that | ||
49 | associates with the AP. hostapd and wpa_supplicant are used to take | ||
50 | care of WPA2-PSK authentication. In addition, hostapd is also | ||
51 | processing access point side of association. | ||
52 | |||
53 | Please note that the current Linux kernel does not enable AP mode, so a | ||
54 | simple patch is needed to enable AP mode selection: | ||

35 | Finally, the base driver should indicate that it is a multiqueue device. The | ||
36 | feature flag NETIF_F_MULTI_QUEUE should be added to the netdev->features | ||
37 | bitmap on device initialization. Below is an example from e1000: | ||

46 | |||
47 | Section 2: Qdisc support for multiqueue devices | ||
48 | ----------------------------------------------- | ||
49 | |||
50 | Currently two qdiscs support multiqueue devices. A new round-robin qdisc, | ||
51 | sch_rr, and sch_prio. The qdisc is responsible for classifying the skb's to | ||
52 | bands and queues, and will store the queue mapping into skb->queue_mapping. | ||
53 | Use this field in the base driver to determine which queue to send the skb | ||
54 | to. | ||
55 | |||
56 | sch_rr has been added for hardware that doesn't want scheduling policies from | ||
57 | software, so it's a straight round-robin qdisc. It uses the same syntax and | ||
58 | classification priomap that sch_prio uses, so it should be intuitive to | ||
59 | configure for people who've used sch_prio. | ||
60 | |||
61 | In order to utilitize the multiqueue features of the qdiscs, the network | ||
62 | device layer needs to enable multiple queue support. This can be done by | ||
63 | selecting NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE under Drivers. | ||
64 | |||
65 | The PRIO qdisc naturally plugs into a multiqueue device. If | ||
66 | NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE is selected, then on qdisc load, the number of | ||
67 | bands requested is compared to the number of queues on the hardware. If they | ||
68 | are equal, it sets a one-to-one mapping up between the queues and bands. If | ||
69 | they're not equal, it will not load the qdisc. This is the same behavior | ||
70 | for RR. Once the association is made, any skb that is classified will have | ||
71 | skb->queue_mapping set, which will allow the driver to properly queue skb's | ||
72 | to multiple queues. | ||
73 | |||
74 | |||
75 | Section 3: Brief howto using PRIO and RR for multiqueue devices | ||
76 | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
77 | |||
78 | The userspace command 'tc,' part of the iproute2 package, is used to configure | ||
79 | qdiscs. To add the PRIO qdisc to your network device, assuming the device is | ||
80 | called eth0, run the following command: | ||
81 | |||
82 | # tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio bands 4 multiqueue | ||
83 | |||
84 | This will create 4 bands, 0 being highest priority, and associate those bands | ||
85 | to the queues on your NIC. Assuming eth0 has 4 Tx queues, the band mapping | ||
86 | would look like: | ||
87 | |||
88 | band 0 => queue 0 | ||
89 | band 1 => queue 1 | ||
90 | band 2 => queue 2 | ||
91 | band 3 => queue 3 | ||
92 | |||
93 | Traffic will begin flowing through each queue if your TOS values are assigning | ||
94 | traffic across the various bands. For example, ssh traffic will always try to | ||
95 | go out band 0 based on TOS -> Linux priority conversion (realtime traffic), | ||
96 | so it will be sent out queue 0. ICMP traffic (pings) fall into the "normal" | ||
97 | traffic classification, which is band 1. Therefore pings will be send out | ||
98 | queue 1 on the NIC. | ||
99 | |||
100 | Note the use of the multiqueue keyword. This is only in versions of iproute2 | ||
101 | that support multiqueue networking devices; if this is omitted when loading | ||
102 | a qdisc onto a multiqueue device, the qdisc will load and operate the same | ||
103 | if it were loaded onto a single-queue device (i.e. - sends all traffic to | ||
104 | queue 0). | ||
105 | |||
106 | Another alternative to multiqueue band allocation can be done by using the | ||
107 | multiqueue option and specify 0 bands. If this is the case, the qdisc will | ||
108 | allocate the number of bands to equal the number of queues that the device | ||
109 | reports, and bring the qdisc online. | ||
110 | |||
111 | The behavior of tc filters remains the same, where it will override TOS priority | ||
112 | classification. | ||

1 | APM or ACPI? | ||
2 | ------------ | ||
3 | If you have a relatively recent x86 mobile, desktop, or server system, | ||
4 | odds are it supports either Advanced Power Management (APM) or | ||
5 | Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). ACPI is the newer | ||
6 | of the two technologies and puts power management in the hands of the | ||
7 | operating system, allowing for more intelligent power management than | ||
8 | is possible with BIOS controlled APM. | ||
9 | |||
10 | The best way to determine which, if either, your system supports is to | ||
11 | build a kernel with both ACPI and APM enabled (as of 2.3.x ACPI is | ||
12 | enabled by default). If a working ACPI implementation is found, the | ||
13 | ACPI driver will override and disable APM, otherwise the APM driver | ||
14 | will be used. | ||
15 | |||
16 | No, sorry, you cannot have both ACPI and APM enabled and running at | ||
17 | once. Some people with broken ACPI or broken APM implementations | ||
18 | would like to use both to get a full set of working features, but you | ||
19 | simply cannot mix and match the two. Only one power management | ||
20 | interface can be in control of the machine at once. Think about it.. | ||
21 | |||
22 | User-space Daemons | ||
23 | ------------------ | ||
24 | Both APM and ACPI rely on user-space daemons, apmd and acpid | ||
25 | respectively, to be completely functional. Obtain both of these | ||

1 | Linux Power Management Support | ||
2 | |||
3 | This document briefly describes how to use power management with your | ||
4 | Linux system and how to add power management support to Linux drivers. | ||
5 | |||
6 | APM or ACPI? | ||
7 | ------------ | ||
8 | If you have a relatively recent x86 mobile, desktop, or server system, | ||
9 | odds are it supports either Advanced Power Management (APM) or | ||
10 | Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). ACPI is the newer | ||
11 | of the two technologies and puts power management in the hands of the | ||
12 | operating system, allowing for more intelligent power management than | ||
13 | is possible with BIOS controlled APM. | ||
14 | |||
15 | The best way to determine which, if either, your system supports is to | ||
16 | build a kernel with both ACPI and APM enabled (as of 2.3.x ACPI is | ||
17 | enabled by default). If a working ACPI implementation is found, the | ||
18 | ACPI driver will override and disable APM, otherwise the APM driver | ||
19 | will be used. | ||
20 | |||
21 | No, sorry, you cannot have both ACPI and APM enabled and running at | ||
22 | once. Some people with broken ACPI or broken APM implementations | ||
23 | would like to use both to get a full set of working features, but you | ||
24 | simply cannot mix and match the two. Only one power management | ||
25 | interface can be in control of the machine at once. Think about it.. | ||
26 | |||
27 | User-space Daemons | ||
28 | ------------------ | ||
29 | Both APM and ACPI rely on user-space daemons, apmd and acpid | ||
30 | respectively, to be completely functional. Obtain both of these | ||
31 | daemons from your Linux distribution or from the Internet (see below) | ||
32 | and be sure that they are started sometime in the system boot process. | ||
33 | Go ahead and start both. If ACPI or APM is not available on your | ||
34 | system the associated daemon will exit gracefully. | ||

39 | Driver Interface -- OBSOLETE, DO NOT USE! | ||
40 | ----------------************************* | ||
41 | |||
42 | Note: pm_register(), pm_access(), pm_dev_idle() and friends are | ||
43 | obsolete. Please do not use them. Instead you should properly hook | ||
44 | your driver into the driver model, and use its suspend()/resume() | ||
45 | callbacks to do this kind of stuff. | ||
46 | |||
47 | If you are writing a new driver or maintaining an old driver, it | ||
48 | should include power management support. Without power management | ||
49 | support, a single driver may prevent a system with power management | ||
50 | capabilities from ever being able to suspend (safely). | ||
51 | |||
52 | Overview: | ||
53 | 1) Register each instance of a device with "pm_register" | ||
54 | 2) Call "pm_access" before accessing the hardware. | ||
55 | (this will ensure that the hardware is awake and ready) | ||
56 | 3) Your "pm_callback" is called before going into a | ||
57 | suspend state (ACPI D1-D3) or after resuming (ACPI D0) | ||
58 | from a suspend. | ||
59 | 4) Call "pm_dev_idle" when the device is not being used | ||
60 | (optional but will improve device idle detection) | ||
61 | 5) When unloaded, unregister the device with "pm_unregister" | ||
62 | |||

126 | Driver Details | ||
127 | -------------- | ||
128 | This is just a quick Q&A as a stopgap until a real driver writers' | ||
129 | power management guide is available. | ||
130 | |||
131 | Q: When is a device suspended? | ||
132 | |||
133 | Devices can be suspended based on direct user request (eg. laptop lid | ||
134 | closes), system power policy (eg. sleep after 30 minutes of console | ||
135 | inactivity), or device power policy (eg. power down device after 5 | ||
136 | minutes of inactivity) | ||
137 | |||
138 | Q: Must a driver honor a suspend request? | ||
139 | |||
140 | No, a driver can return -EBUSY from a suspend request and this | ||
141 | will stop the system from suspending. When a suspend request | ||
142 | fails, all suspended devices are resumed and the system continues | ||
143 | to run. Suspend can be retried at a later time. | ||
144 | |||
145 | Q: Can the driver block suspend/resume requests? | ||
146 | |||
147 | Yes, a driver can delay its return from a suspend or resume | ||
148 | request until the device is ready to handle requests. It | ||
149 | is advantageous to return as quickly as possible from a | ||
150 | request as suspend/resume are done serially. | ||
151 | |||
152 | Q: What context is a suspend/resume initiated from? | ||
153 | |||
154 | A suspend or resume is initiated from a kernel thread context. | ||
155 | It is safe to block, allocate memory, initiate requests | ||
156 | or anything else you can do within the kernel. | ||
157 | |||
158 | Q: Will requests continue to arrive after a suspend? | ||
159 | |||
160 | Possibly. It is the driver's responsibility to queue(*), | ||
161 | fail, or drop any requests that arrive after returning | ||
162 | success to a suspend request. It is important that the | ||
163 | driver not access its device until after it receives | ||
164 | a resume request as the device's bus may no longer | ||
165 | be active. | ||
166 | |||
167 | (*) If a driver queues requests for processing after | ||
168 | resume be aware that the device, network, etc. | ||
169 | might be in a different state than at suspend time. | ||
170 | It's probably better to drop requests unless | ||
171 | the driver is a storage device. | ||
172 | |||
173 | Q: Do I have to manage bus-specific power management registers | ||
174 | |||
175 | No. It is the responsibility of the bus driver to manage | ||
176 | PCI, USB, etc. power management registers. The bus driver | ||
177 | or the power management subsystem will also enable any | ||
178 | wake-on functionality that the device has. | ||
179 | |||
180 | Q: So, really, what do I need to do to support suspend/resume? | ||
181 | |||
182 | You need to save any device context that would | ||
183 | be lost if the device was powered off and then restore | ||
184 | it at resume time. When ACPI is active, there are | ||
185 | three levels of device suspend states; D1, D2, and D3. | ||
186 | (The suspend state is passed as the "data" argument | ||
187 | to the device callback.) With D3, the device is powered | ||
188 | off and loses all context, D1 and D2 are shallower power | ||
189 | states and require less device context to be saved. To | ||
190 | play it safe, just save everything at suspend and restore | ||
191 | everything at resume. | ||
192 | |||
193 | Q: Where do I store device context for suspend? | ||
194 | |||
195 | Anywhere in memory, kmalloc a buffer or store it | ||
196 | in the device descriptor. You are guaranteed that the | ||
197 | contents of memory will be restored and accessible | ||
198 | before resume, even when the system suspends to disk. | ||
199 | |||
200 | Q: What do I need to do for ACPI vs. APM vs. etc? | ||
201 | |||
202 | Drivers need not be aware of the specific power management | ||
203 | technology that is active. They just need to be aware | ||
204 | of when the overlying power management system requests | ||
205 | that they suspend or resume. | ||
206 | |||
207 | Q: What about device dependencies? | ||
208 | |||
209 | When a driver registers a device, the power management | ||
210 | subsystem uses the information provided to build a | ||
211 | tree of device dependencies (eg. USB device X is on | ||
212 | USB controller Y which is on PCI bus Z) When power | ||
213 | management wants to suspend a device, it first sends | ||
214 | a suspend request to its driver, then the bus driver, | ||
215 | and so on up to the system bus. Device resumes | ||
216 | proceed in the opposite direction. | ||
217 | |||
218 | Q: Who do I contact for additional information about | ||
219 | enabling power management for my specific driver/device? | ||

1821 | viii) Uploaded QE firmware | ||
1822 | |||
1823 | If a new firwmare has been uploaded to the QE (usually by the | ||
1824 | boot loader), then a 'firmware' child node should be added to the QE | ||
1825 | node. This node provides information on the uploaded firmware that | ||
1826 | device drivers may need. | ||
1827 | |||
1828 | Required properties: | ||
1829 | - id: The string name of the firmware. This is taken from the 'id' | ||
1830 | member of the qe_firmware structure of the uploaded firmware. | ||
1831 | Device drivers can search this string to determine if the | ||
1832 | firmware they want is already present. | ||
1833 | - extended-modes: The Extended Modes bitfield, taken from the | ||
1834 | firmware binary. It is a 64-bit number represented | ||
1835 | as an array of two 32-bit numbers. | ||
1836 | - virtual-traps: The virtual traps, taken from the firmware binary. | ||
1837 | It is an array of 8 32-bit numbers. | ||
1838 | |||
1839 | Example: | ||
1840 | |||
1841 | firmware { | ||
1842 | id = "Soft-UART"; | ||

2101 | viii) Multi-User RAM (MURAM) | ||
2102 | |||
2103 | The multi-user/dual-ported RAM is expressed as a bus under the CPM node. | ||
2104 | |||
2105 | Ranges must be set up subject to the following restrictions: | ||
2106 | |||
2107 | - Children's reg nodes must be offsets from the start of all muram, even | ||
2108 | if the user-data area does not begin at zero. | ||
2109 | - If multiple range entries are used, the difference between the parent | ||
2110 | address and the child address must be the same in all, so that a single | ||
2111 | mapping can cover them all while maintaining the ability to determine | ||
2112 | CPM-side offsets with pointer subtraction. It is recommended that | ||
2113 | multiple range entries not be used. | ||
2114 | - A child address of zero must be translatable, even if no reg resources | ||
2115 | contain it. | ||
2116 | |||
2117 | A child "data" node must exist, compatible with "fsl,cpm-muram-data", to | ||
2118 | indicate the portion of muram that is usable by the OS for arbitrary | ||
2119 | purposes. The data node may have an arbitrary number of reg resources, | ||
2120 | all of which contribute to the allocatable muram pool. | ||
2121 | |||
2122 | Example, based on mpc8272: | ||
2123 | |||
2124 | muram@0 { | ||
2125 | #address-cells = <1>; | ||
2126 | #size-cells = <1>; | ||

2136 | |||
2137 | Properties: | ||
2138 | - name : Should be localbus | ||
2139 | - #address-cells : Should be either two or three. The first cell is the | ||
2140 | chipselect number, and the remaining cells are the | ||
2141 | offset into the chipselect. | ||
2142 | - #size-cells : Either one or two, depending on how large each chipselect | ||
2143 | can be. | ||
2144 | - ranges : Each range corresponds to a single chipselect, and cover | ||
2145 | the entire access window as configured. | ||

1887 | s) SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses | ||
1888 | |||
1889 | SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI master device | ||
1890 | and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. For this | ||
1891 | discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in | ||
1892 | SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers | ||
1893 | in slave mode. | ||
1894 | |||
1895 | The SPI master node requires the following properties: | ||
1896 | - #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select | ||
1897 | address on the SPI bus. | ||
1898 | - #size-cells - should be zero. | ||
1899 | - compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names | ||
1900 | recommended practice. | ||
1901 | No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed | ||
1902 | that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus. | ||
1903 | However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for | ||
1904 | assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is | ||
1905 | flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the | ||
1906 | assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage | ||
1907 | chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to | ||
1908 | support describing the chip select layout. | ||
1909 | |||
1910 | SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI master node and can | ||
1911 | contain the following properties. | ||
1912 | - reg - (required) chip select address of device. | ||
1913 | - compatible - (required) name of SPI device following generic names | ||
1914 | recommended practice | ||
1915 | - spi-max-frequency - (required) Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz | ||
1916 | - spi-cpol - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires | ||
1917 | inverse clock polarity (CPOL) mode | ||
1918 | - spi-cpha - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires | ||
1919 | shifted clock phase (CPHA) mode | ||

2599 | X - Specifying Device Power Management Information (sleep property) | ||
2600 | =================================================================== | ||
2601 | |||
2602 | Devices on SOCs often have mechanisms for placing devices into low-power | ||
2603 | states that are decoupled from the devices' own register blocks. Sometimes, | ||
2604 | this information is more complicated than a cell-index property can | ||
2605 | reasonably describe. Thus, each device controlled in such a manner | ||
2606 | may contain a "sleep" property which describes these connections. | ||
2607 | |||
2608 | The sleep property consists of one or more sleep resources, each of | ||
2609 | which consists of a phandle to a sleep controller, followed by a | ||
2610 | controller-specific sleep specifier of zero or more cells. | ||
2611 | |||
2612 | The semantics of what type of low power modes are possible are defined | ||
2613 | by the sleep controller. Some examples of the types of low power modes | ||
2614 | that may be supported are: | ||
2615 | |||
2616 | - Dynamic: The device may be disabled or enabled at any time. | ||
2617 | - System Suspend: The device may request to be disabled or remain | ||
2618 | awake during system suspend, but will not be disabled until then. | ||
2619 | - Permanent: The device is disabled permanently (until the next hard | ||
2620 | reset). | ||
2621 | |||
2622 | Some devices may share a clock domain with each other, such that they should | ||
2623 | only be suspended when none of the devices are in use. Where reasonable, | ||
2624 | such nodes should be placed on a virtual bus, where the bus has the sleep | ||
2625 | property. If the clock domain is shared among devices that cannot be | ||
2626 | reasonably grouped in this manner, then create a virtual sleep controller | ||
2627 | (similar to an interrupt nexus, except that defining a standardized | ||
2628 | sleep-map should wait until its necessity is demonstrated). | ||

1 | The PowerPC boot wrapper | ||
2 | ------------------------ | ||
3 | Copyright (C) Secret Lab Technologies Ltd. | ||
4 | |||
5 | PowerPC image targets compresses and wraps the kernel image (vmlinux) with | ||
6 | a boot wrapper to make it usable by the system firmware. There is no | ||
7 | standard PowerPC firmware interface, so the boot wrapper is designed to | ||
8 | be adaptable for each kind of image that needs to be built. | ||
9 | |||
10 | The boot wrapper can be found in the arch/powerpc/boot/ directory. The | ||
11 | Makefile in that directory has targets for all the available image types. | ||
12 | The different image types are used to support all of the various firmware | ||
13 | interfaces found on PowerPC platforms. OpenFirmware is the most commonly | ||
14 | used firmware type on general purpose PowerPC systems from Apple, IBM and | ||
15 | others. U-Boot is typically found on embedded PowerPC hardware, but there | ||
16 | are a handful of other firmware implementations which are also popular. Each | ||
17 | firmware interface requires a different image format. | ||
18 | |||
19 | The boot wrapper is built from the makefile in arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile and | ||
20 | it uses the wrapper script (arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper) to generate target | ||
21 | image. The details of the build system is discussed in the next section. | ||
22 | Currently, the following image format targets exist: | ||
23 | |||
24 | cuImage.%: Backwards compatible uImage for older version of | ||
25 | U-Boot (for versions that don't understand the device | ||
26 | tree). This image embeds a device tree blob inside | ||
27 | the image. The boot wrapper, kernel and device tree | ||
28 | are all embedded inside the U-Boot uImage file format | ||
29 | with boot wrapper code that extracts data from the old | ||
30 | bd_info structure and loads the data into the device | ||
31 | tree before jumping into the kernel. | ||
32 | Because of the series of #ifdefs found in the | ||
33 | bd_info structure used in the old U-Boot interfaces, | ||
34 | cuImages are platform specific. Each specific | ||
35 | U-Boot platform has a different platform init file | ||
36 | which populates the embedded device tree with data | ||
37 | from the platform specific bd_info file. The platform | ||
38 | specific cuImage platform init code can be found in | ||
39 | arch/powerpc/boot/cuboot.*.c. Selection of the correct | ||
40 | cuImage init code for a specific board can be found in | ||
41 | the wrapper structure. | ||
42 | dtbImage.%: Similar to zImage, except device tree blob is embedded | ||
43 | inside the image instead of provided by firmware. The | ||
44 | output image file can be either an elf file or a flat | ||
45 | binary depending on the platform. | ||
46 | dtbImages are used on systems which do not have an | ||
47 | interface for passing a device tree directly. | ||
48 | dtbImages are similar to simpleImages except that | ||
49 | dtbImages have platform specific code for extracting | ||
50 | data from the board firmware, but simpleImages do not | ||
51 | talk to the firmware at all. | ||
52 | PlayStation 3 support uses dtbImage. So do Embedded | ||
53 | Planet boards using the PlanetCore firmware. Board | ||
54 | specific initialization code is typically found in a | ||
55 | file named arch/powerpc/boot/<platform>.c; but this | ||
56 | can be overridden by the wrapper script. | ||
57 | simpleImage.%: Firmware independent compressed image that does not | ||
58 | depend on any particular firmware interface and embeds | ||
59 | a device tree blob. This image is a flat binary that | ||
60 | can be loaded to any location in RAM and jumped to. | ||
61 | Firmware cannot pass any configuration data to the | ||
62 | kernel with this image type and it depends entirely on | ||
63 | the embedded device tree for all information. | ||
64 | The simpleImage is useful for booting systems with | ||
65 | an unknown firmware interface or for booting from | ||
66 | a debugger when no firmware is present (such as on | ||
67 | the Xilinx Virtex platform). The only assumption that | ||
68 | simpleImage makes is that RAM is correctly initialized | ||
69 | and that the MMU is either off or has RAM mapped to | ||
70 | base address 0. | ||
71 | simpleImage also supports inserting special platform | ||
72 | specific initialization code to the start of the bootup | ||
73 | sequence. The virtex405 platform uses this feature to | ||
74 | ensure that the cache is invalidated before caching | ||
75 | is enabled. Platform specific initialization code is | ||
76 | added as part of the wrapper script and is keyed on | ||
77 | the image target name. For example, all | ||
78 | simpleImage.virtex405-* targets will add the | ||
79 | virtex405-head.S initialization code (This also means | ||
80 | that the dts file for virtex405 targets should be | ||
81 | named (virtex405-<board>.dts). Search the wrapper | ||
82 | script for 'virtex405' and see the file | ||
83 | arch/powerpc/boot/virtex405-head.S for details. | ||
84 | treeImage.%; Image format for used with OpenBIOS firmware found | ||
85 | on some ppc4xx hardware. This image embeds a device | ||
86 | tree blob inside the image. | ||
87 | uImage: Native image format used by U-Boot. The uImage target | ||
88 | does not add any boot code. It just wraps a compressed | ||
89 | vmlinux in the uImage data structure. This image | ||
90 | requires a version of U-Boot that is able to pass | ||
91 | a device tree to the kernel at boot. If using an older | ||
92 | version of U-Boot, then you need to use a cuImage | ||
93 | instead. | ||
94 | zImage.%: Image format which does not embed a device tree. | ||
95 | Used by OpenFirmware and other firmware interfaces | ||
96 | which are able to supply a device tree. This image | ||
97 | expects firmware to provide the device tree at boot. | ||
98 | Typically, if you have general purpose PowerPC | ||
99 | hardware then you want this image format. | ||
100 | |||
101 | Image types which embed a device tree blob (simpleImage, dtbImage, treeImage, | ||
102 | and cuImage) all generate the device tree blob from a file in the | ||
103 | arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ directory. The Makefile selects the correct device | ||
104 | tree source based on the name of the target. Therefore, if the kernel is | ||
105 | built with 'make treeImage.walnut simpleImage.virtex405-ml403', then the | ||
106 | build system will use arch/powerpc/boot/dts/walnut.dts to build | ||
107 | treeImage.walnut and arch/powerpc/boot/dts/virtex405-ml403.dts to build | ||
108 | the simpleImage.virtex405-ml403. | ||
109 | |||
110 | Two special targets called 'zImage' and 'zImage.initrd' also exist. These | ||
111 | targets build all the default images as selected by the kernel configuration. | ||
112 | Default images are selected by the boot wrapper Makefile | ||
113 | (arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile) by adding targets to the $image-y variable. Look | ||
114 | at the Makefile to see which default image targets are available. | ||
115 | |||
116 | How it is built | ||
117 | --------------- | ||
118 | arch/powerpc is designed to support multiplatform kernels, which means | ||
119 | that a single vmlinux image can be booted on many different target boards. | ||
120 | It also means that the boot wrapper must be able to wrap for many kinds of | ||
121 | images on a single build. The design decision was made to not use any | ||
122 | conditional compilation code (#ifdef, etc) in the boot wrapper source code. | ||
123 | All of the boot wrapper pieces are buildable at any time regardless of the | ||
124 | kernel configuration. Building all the wrapper bits on every kernel build | ||
125 | also ensures that obscure parts of the wrapper are at the very least compile | ||
126 | tested in a large variety of environments. | ||
127 | |||
128 | The wrapper is adapted for different image types at link time by linking in | ||
129 | just the wrapper bits that are appropriate for the image type. The 'wrapper | ||
130 | script' (found in arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper) is called by the Makefile and | ||
131 | is responsible for selecting the correct wrapper bits for the image type. | ||
132 | The arguments are well documented in the script's comment block, so they | ||
133 | are not repeated here. However, it is worth mentioning that the script | ||
134 | uses the -p (platform) argument as the main method of deciding which wrapper | ||
135 | bits to compile in. Look for the large 'case "$platform" in' block in the | ||
136 | middle of the script. This is also the place where platform specific fixups | ||
137 | can be selected by changing the link order. | ||
138 | |||
139 | In particular, care should be taken when working with cuImages. cuImage | ||
140 | wrapper bits are very board specific and care should be taken to make sure | ||
141 | the target you are trying to build is supported by the wrapper bits. | ||

23 | |||
24 | - fsl,cpm-command : This value is ORed with the opcode and command flag | ||
25 | to specify the device on which a CPM command operates. | ||
26 | |||
27 | - fsl,cpm-brg : Indicates which baud rate generator the device | ||
28 | is associated with. If absent, an unused BRG | ||
29 | should be dynamically allocated. If zero, the | ||
30 | device uses an external clock rather than a BRG. | ||
31 | |||
32 | - reg : Unless otherwise specified, the first resource represents the | ||
33 | scc/fcc/ucc registers, and the second represents the device's | ||
34 | parameter RAM region (if it has one). | ||
35 | |||
36 | * Multi-User RAM (MURAM) | ||
37 | |||
38 | The multi-user/dual-ported RAM is expressed as a bus under the CPM node. | ||
39 | |||
40 | Ranges must be set up subject to the following restrictions: | ||
41 | |||
42 | - Children's reg nodes must be offsets from the start of all muram, even | ||
43 | if the user-data area does not begin at zero. | ||
44 | - If multiple range entries are used, the difference between the parent | ||
45 | address and the child address must be the same in all, so that a single | ||
46 | mapping can cover them all while maintaining the ability to determine | ||
47 | CPM-side offsets with pointer subtraction. It is recommended that | ||
48 | multiple range entries not be used. | ||
49 | - A child address of zero must be translatable, even if no reg resources | ||
50 | contain it. | ||
51 | |||
52 | A child "data" node must exist, compatible with "fsl,cpm-muram-data", to | ||
53 | indicate the portion of muram that is usable by the OS for arbitrary | ||
54 | purposes. The data node may have an arbitrary number of reg resources, | ||
55 | all of which contribute to the allocatable muram pool. | ||

7 | Basically, it is a bus of devices, that could act more or less | ||
8 | as a complete entity (UCC, USB etc ). All of them should be siblings on | ||
9 | the "root" qe node, using the common properties from there. | ||
10 | The description below applies to the qe of MPC8360 and | ||

1 | * Parallel I/O Ports | ||
2 | |||
3 | This node configures Parallel I/O ports for CPUs with QE support. | ||
4 | The node should reside in the "soc" node of the tree. For each | ||
5 | device that using parallel I/O ports, a child node should be created. | ||
6 | See the definition of the Pin configuration nodes below for more | ||
7 | information. | ||
8 | |||
9 | Required properties: | ||
10 | - device_type : should be "par_io". | ||
11 | - reg : offset to the register set and its length. | ||
12 | - num-ports : number of Parallel I/O ports | ||
13 | |||
14 | Example: | ||
15 | par_io@1400 { | ||

21 | ucc_pin@01 { | ||
22 | ...... | ||
23 | }; | ||

25 | Note that "par_io" nodes are obsolete, and should not be used for | ||
26 | the new device trees. Instead, each Par I/O bank should be represented | ||
27 | via its own gpio-controller node: | ||

34 | Drivers that currently use the deprecated properties should continue to | ||
35 | do so, in order to support older device trees, but they should be updated | ||
36 | to check for the new properties first. | ||
37 | - rx-clock : represents the UCC receive clock source. | ||

36 | Sleep specifiers: | ||
37 | |||
38 | fsl,mpc8349-pmc: Sleep specifiers consist of one cell. For each bit | ||
39 | that is set in the cell, the corresponding bit in SCCR will be saved | ||
40 | and cleared on suspend, and restored on resume. This sleep controller | ||
41 | supports disabling and resuming devices at any time. | ||
42 | |||
43 | fsl,mpc8536-pmc: Sleep specifiers consist of three cells, the third of | ||
44 | which will be ORed into PMCDR upon suspend, and cleared from PMCDR | ||
45 | upon resume. The first two cells are as described for fsl,mpc8578-pmc. | ||
46 | This sleep controller only supports disabling devices during system | ||
47 | sleep, or permanently. | ||
48 | |||
49 | fsl,mpc8548-pmc: Sleep specifiers consist of one or two cells, the | ||
50 | first of which will be ORed into DEVDISR (and the second into | ||
51 | DEVDISR2, if present -- this cell should be zero or absent if the | ||
52 | hardware does not have DEVDISR2) upon a request for permanent device | ||

11 | The rfkill switch subsystem offers support for keys often found on laptops | 14 | 1. Introduction: |
12 | to enable wireless devices like WiFi and Bluetooth. | 15 | |
16 | The rfkill switch subsystem exists to add a generic interface to circuitry that | ||
17 | can enable or disable the signal output of a wireless *transmitter* of any | ||
18 | type. By far, the most common use is to disable radio-frequency transmitters. | ||
13 | 19 | ||
14 | This is done by providing the user 3 possibilities: | 20 | Note that disabling the signal output means that the the transmitter is to be |

25 | laptops to enable wireless devices like WiFi and Bluetooth, so that these keys | ||

25 | to take over the task to handle the key events. | 35 | tasks when the key is pressed, rfkill provides userspace the possibility to |
36 | take over the task to handle the key events. | ||
37 | |||
38 | =============================================================================== | ||
39 | 2: Implementation details | ||
40 | |||
41 | The rfkill subsystem is composed of various components: the rfkill class, the | ||
42 | rfkill-input module (an input layer handler), and some specific input layer | ||
43 | events. | ||
44 | |||
45 | The rfkill class provides kernel drivers with an interface that allows them to | ||
46 | know when they should enable or disable a wireless network device transmitter. | ||
47 | This is enabled by the CONFIG_RFKILL Kconfig option. | ||
48 | |||
49 | The rfkill class support makes sure userspace will be notified of all state | ||
50 | changes on rfkill devices through uevents. It provides a notification chain | ||
51 | for interested parties in the kernel to also get notified of rfkill state | ||
52 | changes in other drivers. It creates several sysfs entries which can be used | ||
53 | by userspace. See section "Userspace support". | ||
54 | |||
55 | The rfkill-input module provides the kernel with the ability to implement a | ||
56 | basic response when the user presses a key or button (or toggles a switch) | ||
57 | related to rfkill functionality. It is an in-kernel implementation of default | ||
58 | policy of reacting to rfkill-related input events and neither mandatory nor | ||
59 | required for wireless drivers to operate. It is enabled by the | ||
60 | CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT Kconfig option. | ||
61 | |||
62 | rfkill-input is a rfkill-related events input layer handler. This handler will | ||
63 | listen to all rfkill key events and will change the rfkill state of the | ||
64 | wireless devices accordingly. With this option enabled userspace could either | ||
65 | do nothing or simply perform monitoring tasks. | ||
66 | |||
67 | The rfkill-input module also provides EPO (emergency power-off) functionality | ||
68 | for all wireless transmitters. This function cannot be overridden, and it is | ||
69 | always active. rfkill EPO is related to *_RFKILL_ALL input layer events. | ||
70 | |||
71 | |||
72 | Important terms for the rfkill subsystem: | ||
73 | |||
74 | In order to avoid confusion, we avoid the term "switch" in rfkill when it is | ||
75 | referring to an electronic control circuit that enables or disables a | ||
76 | transmitter. We reserve it for the physical device a human manipulates | ||
77 | (which is an input device, by the way): | ||
78 | |||
79 | rfkill switch: | ||
80 | |||
81 | A physical device a human manipulates. Its state can be perceived by | ||
82 | the kernel either directly (through a GPIO pin, ACPI GPE) or by its | ||
83 | effect on a rfkill line of a wireless device. | ||
84 | |||
85 | rfkill controller: | ||
86 | |||
87 | A hardware circuit that controls the state of a rfkill line, which a | ||
88 | kernel driver can interact with *to modify* that state (i.e. it has | ||
89 | either write-only or read/write access). | ||
90 | |||
91 | rfkill line: | ||
92 | |||
93 | An input channel (hardware or software) of a wireless device, which | ||
94 | causes a wireless transmitter to stop emitting energy (BLOCK) when it | ||
95 | is active. Point of view is extremely important here: rfkill lines are | ||
96 | always seen from the PoV of a wireless device (and its driver). | ||
97 | |||
98 | soft rfkill line/software rfkill line: | ||
99 | |||
100 | A rfkill line the wireless device driver can directly change the state | ||
101 | of. Related to rfkill_state RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED. | ||
102 | |||
103 | hard rfkill line/hardware rfkill line: | ||
104 | |||
105 | A rfkill line that works fully in hardware or firmware, and that cannot | ||
106 | be overridden by the kernel driver. The hardware device or the | ||
107 | firmware just exports its status to the driver, but it is read-only. | ||
108 | Related to rfkill_state RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED. | ||
109 | |||
110 | The enum rfkill_state describes the rfkill state of a transmitter: | ||
111 | |||
112 | When a rfkill line or rfkill controller is in the RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED state, | ||
113 | the wireless transmitter (radio TX circuit for example) is *enabled*. When the | ||
114 | it is in the RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED or RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED, the | ||
115 | wireless transmitter is to be *blocked* from operating. | ||
116 | |||
117 | RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED indicates that a call to toggle_radio() can change | ||
118 | that state. RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED indicates that a call to toggle_radio() | ||
119 | will not be able to change the state and will return with a suitable error if | ||
120 | attempts are made to set the state to RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED. | ||
121 | |||
122 | RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED is used by drivers to signal that the device is | ||
123 | locked in the BLOCKED state by a hardwire rfkill line (typically an input pin | ||
124 | that, when active, forces the transmitter to be disabled) which the driver | ||
125 | CANNOT override. | ||
126 | |||
127 | Full rfkill functionality requires two different subsystems to cooperate: the | ||
128 | input layer and the rfkill class. The input layer issues *commands* to the | ||
129 | entire system requesting that devices registered to the rfkill class change | ||
130 | state. The way this interaction happens is not complex, but it is not obvious | ||
131 | either: | ||
132 | |||
133 | Kernel Input layer: | ||
134 | |||
135 | * Generates KEY_WWAN, KEY_WLAN, KEY_BLUETOOTH, SW_RFKILL_ALL, and | ||
136 | other such events when the user presses certain keys, buttons, or | ||
137 | toggles certain physical switches. | ||
138 | |||
139 | THE INPUT LAYER IS NEVER USED TO PROPAGATE STATUS, NOTIFICATIONS OR THE | ||
140 | KIND OF STUFF AN ON-SCREEN-DISPLAY APPLICATION WOULD REPORT. It is | ||
141 | used to issue *commands* for the system to change behaviour, and these | ||
142 | commands may or may not be carried out by some kernel driver or | ||
143 | userspace application. It follows that doing user feedback based only | ||
144 | on input events is broken, as there is no guarantee that an input event | ||
145 | will be acted upon. | ||
146 | |||
147 | Most wireless communication device drivers implementing rfkill | ||
148 | functionality MUST NOT generate these events, and have no reason to | ||
149 | register themselves with the input layer. Doing otherwise is a common | ||
150 | misconception. There is an API to propagate rfkill status change | ||
151 | information, and it is NOT the input layer. | ||
152 | |||
153 | rfkill class: | ||
154 | |||
155 | * Calls a hook in a driver to effectively change the wireless | ||
156 | transmitter state; | ||
157 | * Keeps track of the wireless transmitter state (with help from | ||
158 | the driver); | ||
159 | * Generates userspace notifications (uevents) and a call to a | ||
160 | notification chain (kernel) when there is a wireless transmitter | ||
161 | state change; | ||
162 | * Connects a wireless communications driver with the common rfkill | ||
163 | control system, which, for example, allows actions such as | ||
164 | "switch all bluetooth devices offline" to be carried out by | ||
165 | userspace or by rfkill-input. | ||
166 | |||
167 | THE RFKILL CLASS NEVER ISSUES INPUT EVENTS. THE RFKILL CLASS DOES | ||
168 | NOT LISTEN TO INPUT EVENTS. NO DRIVER USING THE RFKILL CLASS SHALL | ||
169 | EVER LISTEN TO, OR ACT ON RFKILL INPUT EVENTS. Doing otherwise is | ||
170 | a layering violation. | ||
171 | |||
172 | Most wireless data communication drivers in the kernel have just to | ||
173 | implement the rfkill class API to work properly. Interfacing to the | ||
174 | input layer is not often required (and is very often a *bug*) on | ||
175 | wireless drivers. | ||
176 | |||
177 | Platform drivers often have to attach to the input layer to *issue* | ||
178 | (but never to listen to) rfkill events for rfkill switches, and also to | ||
179 | the rfkill class to export a control interface for the platform rfkill | ||
180 | controllers to the rfkill subsystem. This does NOT mean the rfkill | ||
181 | switch is attached to a rfkill class (doing so is almost always wrong). | ||
182 | It just means the same kernel module is the driver for different | ||
183 | devices (rfkill switches and rfkill controllers). | ||
184 | |||
185 | |||
186 | Userspace input handlers (uevents) or kernel input handlers (rfkill-input): | ||
187 | |||
188 | * Implements the policy of what should happen when one of the input | ||
189 | layer events related to rfkill operation is received. | ||
190 | * Uses the sysfs interface (userspace) or private rfkill API calls | ||
191 | to tell the devices registered with the rfkill class to change | ||
192 | their state (i.e. translates the input layer event into real | ||
193 | action). | ||
194 | * rfkill-input implements EPO by handling EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL 0 | ||
195 | (power off all transmitters) in a special way: it ignores any | ||
196 | overrides and local state cache and forces all transmitters to the | ||
197 | RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED state (including those which are already | ||
198 | supposed to be BLOCKED). Note that the opposite event (power on all | ||
199 | transmitters) is handled normally. | ||
200 | |||
201 | Userspace uevent handler or kernel platform-specific drivers hooked to the | ||
202 | rfkill notifier chain: | ||
203 | |||
204 | * Taps into the rfkill notifier chain or to KOBJ_CHANGE uevents, | ||
205 | in order to know when a device that is registered with the rfkill | ||
206 | class changes state; | ||
207 | * Issues feedback notifications to the user; | ||
208 | * In the rare platforms where this is required, synthesizes an input | ||
209 | event to command all *OTHER* rfkill devices to also change their | ||
210 | statues when a specific rfkill device changes state. | ||
211 | |||
212 | |||
213 | =============================================================================== | ||
214 | 3: Kernel driver guidelines | ||
215 | |||
216 | Remember: point-of-view is everything for a driver that connects to the rfkill | ||
217 | subsystem. All the details below must be measured/perceived from the point of | ||
218 | view of the specific driver being modified. | ||
219 | |||
220 | The first thing one needs to know is whether his driver should be talking to | ||
221 | the rfkill class or to the input layer. In rare cases (platform drivers), it | ||
222 | could happen that you need to do both, as platform drivers often handle a | ||
223 | variety of devices in the same driver. | ||
224 | |||
225 | Do not mistake input devices for rfkill controllers. The only type of "rfkill | ||
226 | switch" device that is to be registered with the rfkill class are those | ||
227 | directly controlling the circuits that cause a wireless transmitter to stop | ||
228 | working (or the software equivalent of them), i.e. what we call a rfkill | ||
229 | controller. Every other kind of "rfkill switch" is just an input device and | ||
230 | MUST NOT be registered with the rfkill class. | ||
231 | |||
232 | A driver should register a device with the rfkill class when ALL of the | ||
233 | following conditions are met (they define a rfkill controller): | ||
234 | |||
235 | 1. The device is/controls a data communications wireless transmitter; | ||
236 | |||
237 | 2. The kernel can interact with the hardware/firmware to CHANGE the wireless | ||
238 | transmitter state (block/unblock TX operation); | ||
239 | |||
240 | 3. The transmitter can be made to not emit any energy when "blocked": | ||
241 | rfkill is not about blocking data transmissions, it is about blocking | ||
242 | energy emission; | ||
243 | |||
244 | A driver should register a device with the input subsystem to issue | ||
245 | rfkill-related events (KEY_WLAN, KEY_BLUETOOTH, KEY_WWAN, KEY_WIMAX, | ||
246 | SW_RFKILL_ALL, etc) when ALL of the folowing conditions are met: | ||
247 | |||
248 | 1. It is directly related to some physical device the user interacts with, to | ||
249 | command the O.S./firmware/hardware to enable/disable a data communications | ||
250 | wireless transmitter. | ||
251 | |||
252 | Examples of the physical device are: buttons, keys and switches the user | ||
253 | will press/touch/slide/switch to enable or disable the wireless | ||
254 | communication device. | ||
255 | |||
256 | 2. It is NOT slaved to another device, i.e. there is no other device that | ||
257 | issues rfkill-related input events in preference to this one. | ||
26 | 258 | ||
27 | The system inside the kernel has been split into 2 separate sections: | 259 | Please refer to the corner cases and examples section for more details. |
28 | 1 - RFKILL | ||
29 | 2 - RFKILL_INPUT | ||
30 | 260 | ||
31 | The first option enables rfkill support and will make sure userspace will | 261 | When in doubt, do not issue input events. For drivers that should generate |
32 | be notified of any events through the input device. It also creates several | 262 | input events in some platforms, but not in others (e.g. b43), the best solution |
33 | sysfs entries which can be used by userspace. See section "Userspace support". | 263 | is to NEVER generate input events in the first place. That work should be |
264 | deferred to a platform-specific kernel module (which will know when to generate | ||
265 | events through the rfkill notifier chain) or to userspace. This avoids the | ||
266 | usual maintenance problems with DMI whitelisting. | ||
34 | 267 | ||
35 | The second option provides an rfkill input handler. This handler will | ||
36 | listen to all rfkill key events and will toggle the radio accordingly. | ||
37 | With this option enabled userspace could either do nothing or simply | ||
38 | perform monitoring tasks. | ||
39 | 268 | ||
269 | Corner cases and examples: | ||
40 | ==================================== | 270 | ==================================== |
41 | 2: Driver support | ||
42 | 271 | ||
43 | To build a driver with rfkill subsystem support, the driver should | 272 | 1. If the device is an input device that, because of hardware or firmware, |
44 | depend on the Kconfig symbol RFKILL; it should _not_ depend on | 273 | causes wireless transmitters to be blocked regardless of the kernel's will, it |
45 | RKFILL_INPUT. | 274 | is still just an input device, and NOT to be registered with the rfkill class. |
46 | 275 | ||
47 | Unless key events trigger an interrupt to which the driver listens, polling | 276 | 2. If the wireless transmitter switch control is read-only, it is an input |
48 | will be required to determine the key state changes. For this the input | 277 | device and not to be registered with the rfkill class (and maybe not to be made |
49 | layer providers the input-polldev handler. | 278 | an input layer event source either, see below). |
50 | 279 | ||
51 | A driver should implement a few steps to correctly make use of the | 280 | 3. If there is some other device driver *closer* to the actual hardware the |
52 | rfkill subsystem. First for non-polling drivers: | 281 | user interacted with (the button/switch/key) to issue an input event, THAT is |
282 | the device driver that should be issuing input events. | ||
53 | 283 | ||
54 | - rfkill_allocate() | 284 | E.g: |
55 | - input_allocate_device() | 285 | [RFKILL slider switch] -- [GPIO hardware] -- [WLAN card rf-kill input] |
56 | - rfkill_register() | 286 | (platform driver) (wireless card driver) |
57 | - input_register_device() | 287 | |
288 | The user is closer to the RFKILL slide switch plaform driver, so the driver | ||
289 | which must issue input events is the platform driver looking at the GPIO | ||
290 | hardware, and NEVER the wireless card driver (which is just a slave). It is | ||
291 | very likely that there are other leaves than just the WLAN card rf-kill input | ||
292 | (e.g. a bluetooth card, etc)... | ||
293 | |||
294 | On the other hand, some embedded devices do this: | ||
295 | |||
296 | [RFKILL slider switch] -- [WLAN card rf-kill input] | ||
297 | (wireless card driver) | ||
298 | |||
299 | In this situation, the wireless card driver *could* register itself as an input | ||
300 | device and issue rf-kill related input events... but in order to AVOID the need | ||
301 | for DMI whitelisting, the wireless card driver does NOT do it. Userspace (HAL) | ||
302 | or a platform driver (that exists only on these embedded devices) will do the | ||
303 | dirty job of issuing the input events. | ||
304 | |||
305 | |||
306 | COMMON MISTAKES in kernel drivers, related to rfkill: | ||
307 | ==================================== | ||
308 | |||
309 | 1. NEVER confuse input device keys and buttons with input device switches. | ||
310 | |||
311 | 1a. Switches are always set or reset. They report the current state | ||
312 | (on position or off position). | ||
313 | |||
314 | 1b. Keys and buttons are either in the pressed or not-pressed state, and | ||
315 | that's it. A "button" that latches down when you press it, and | ||
316 | unlatches when you press it again is in fact a switch as far as input | ||
317 | devices go. | ||
318 | |||
319 | Add the SW_* events you need for switches, do NOT try to emulate a button using | ||
320 | KEY_* events just because there is no such SW_* event yet. Do NOT try to use, | ||
321 | for example, KEY_BLUETOOTH when you should be using SW_BLUETOOTH instead. | ||
322 | |||
323 | 2. Input device switches (sources of EV_SW events) DO store their current state | ||
324 | (so you *must* initialize it by issuing a gratuitous input layer event on | ||
325 | driver start-up and also when resuming from sleep), and that state CAN be | ||
326 | queried from userspace through IOCTLs. There is no sysfs interface for this, | ||
327 | but that doesn't mean you should break things trying to hook it to the rfkill | ||
328 | class to get a sysfs interface :-) | ||
329 | |||
330 | 3. Do not issue *_RFKILL_ALL events by default, unless you are sure it is the | ||
331 | correct event for your switch/button. These events are emergency power-off | ||
332 | events when they are trying to turn the transmitters off. An example of an | ||
333 | input device which SHOULD generate *_RFKILL_ALL events is the wireless-kill | ||
334 | switch in a laptop which is NOT a hotkey, but a real switch that kills radios | ||
335 | in hardware, even if the O.S. has gone to lunch. An example of an input device | ||
336 | which SHOULD NOT generate *_RFKILL_ALL events by default, is any sort of hot | ||
337 | key that does nothing by itself, as well as any hot key that is type-specific | ||
338 | (e.g. the one for WLAN). | ||
339 | |||
340 | |||
341 | 3.1 Guidelines for wireless device drivers | ||
342 | ------------------------------------------ | ||
343 | |||
344 | 1. Each independent transmitter in a wireless device (usually there is only one | ||
345 | transmitter per device) should have a SINGLE rfkill class attached to it. | ||
346 | |||
347 | 2. If the device does not have any sort of hardware assistance to allow the | ||
348 | driver to rfkill the device, the driver should emulate it by taking all actions | ||
349 | required to silence the transmitter. | ||
350 | |||
351 | 3. If it is impossible to silence the transmitter (i.e. it still emits energy, | ||
352 | even if it is just in brief pulses, when there is no data to transmit and there | ||
353 | is no hardware support to turn it off) do NOT lie to the users. Do not attach | ||
354 | it to a rfkill class. The rfkill subsystem does not deal with data | ||
355 | transmission, it deals with energy emission. If the transmitter is emitting | ||
356 | energy, it is not blocked in rfkill terms. | ||
357 | |||
358 | 4. It doesn't matter if the device has multiple rfkill input lines affecting | ||
359 | the same transmitter, their combined state is to be exported as a single state | ||
360 | per transmitter (see rule 1). | ||
361 | |||
362 | This rule exists because users of the rfkill subsystem expect to get (and set, | ||
363 | when possible) the overall transmitter rfkill state, not of a particular rfkill | ||
364 | line. | ||
365 | |||
366 | Example of a WLAN wireless driver connected to the rfkill subsystem: | ||
367 | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
368 | |||
369 | A certain WLAN card has one input pin that causes it to block the transmitter | ||
370 | and makes the status of that input pin available (only for reading!) to the | ||
371 | kernel driver. This is a hard rfkill input line (it cannot be overridden by | ||
372 | the kernel driver). | ||
373 | |||
374 | The card also has one PCI register that, if manipulated by the driver, causes | ||
375 | it to block the transmitter. This is a soft rfkill input line. | ||
376 | |||
377 | It has also a thermal protection circuitry that shuts down its transmitter if | ||
378 | the card overheats, and makes the status of that protection available (only for | ||
379 | reading!) to the kernel driver. This is also a hard rfkill input line. | ||
380 | |||
381 | If either one of these rfkill lines are active, the transmitter is blocked by | ||
382 | the hardware and forced offline. | ||
383 | |||
384 | The driver should allocate and attach to its struct device *ONE* instance of | ||
385 | the rfkill class (there is only one transmitter). | ||
386 | |||
387 | It can implement the get_state() hook, and return RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED if | ||
388 | either one of its two hard rfkill input lines are active. If the two hard | ||
389 | rfkill lines are inactive, it must return RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED if its soft | ||
390 | rfkill input line is active. Only if none of the rfkill input lines are | ||
391 | active, will it return RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED. | ||
58 | 392 | ||
59 | For polling drivers: | 393 | If it doesn't implement the get_state() hook, it must make sure that its calls |
394 | to rfkill_force_state() are enough to keep the status always up-to-date, and it | ||
395 | must do a rfkill_force_state() on resume from sleep. | ||
60 | 396 | ||
397 | Every time the driver gets a notification from the card that one of its rfkill | ||
398 | lines changed state (polling might be needed on badly designed cards that don't | ||
399 | generate interrupts for such events), it recomputes the rfkill state as per | ||
400 | above, and calls rfkill_force_state() to update it. | ||
401 | |||
402 | The driver should implement the toggle_radio() hook, that: | ||
403 | |||
404 | 1. Returns an error if one of the hardware rfkill lines are active, and the | ||
405 | caller asked for RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED. | ||
406 | |||
407 | 2. Activates the soft rfkill line if the caller asked for state | ||
408 | RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED. It should do this even if one of the hard rfkill | ||
409 | lines are active, effectively double-blocking the transmitter. | ||
410 | |||
411 | 3. Deactivates the soft rfkill line if none of the hardware rfkill lines are | ||
412 | active and the caller asked for RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED. | ||
413 | |||
414 | =============================================================================== | ||
415 | 4: Kernel API | ||
416 | |||
417 | To build a driver with rfkill subsystem support, the driver should depend on | ||
418 | (or select) the Kconfig symbol RFKILL; it should _not_ depend on RKFILL_INPUT. | ||
419 | |||
420 | The hardware the driver talks to may be write-only (where the current state | ||
421 | of the hardware is unknown), or read-write (where the hardware can be queried | ||
422 | about its current state). | ||
423 | |||
424 | The rfkill class will call the get_state hook of a device every time it needs | ||
425 | to know the *real* current state of the hardware. This can happen often. | ||
426 | |||
427 | Some hardware provides events when its status changes. In these cases, it is | ||
428 | best for the driver to not provide a get_state hook, and instead register the | ||
429 | rfkill class *already* with the correct status, and keep it updated using | ||
430 | rfkill_force_state() when it gets an event from the hardware. | ||
431 | |||
432 | There is no provision for a statically-allocated rfkill struct. You must | ||
433 | use rfkill_allocate() to allocate one. | ||
434 | |||
435 | You should: | ||
61 | - rfkill_allocate() | 436 | - rfkill_allocate() |
62 | - input_allocate_polled_device() | 437 | - modify rfkill fields (flags, name) |
438 | - modify state to the current hardware state (THIS IS THE ONLY TIME | ||
439 | YOU CAN ACCESS state DIRECTLY) | ||
63 | - rfkill_register() | 440 | - rfkill_register() |
64 | - input_register_polled_device() | ||
65 | 441 | ||
66 | When a key event has been detected, the correct event should be | 442 | The only way to set a device to the RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED state is through |
67 | sent over the input device which has been registered by the driver. | 443 | a suitable return of get_state() or through rfkill_force_state(). |
68 | 444 | ||
69 | ==================================== | 445 | When a device is in the RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED state, the only way to switch |
70 | 3: Userspace support | 446 | it to a different state is through a suitable return of get_state() or through |
447 | rfkill_force_state(). | ||
448 | |||
449 | If toggle_radio() is called to set a device to state RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED | ||
450 | when that device is already at the RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED state, it should | ||
451 | not return an error. Instead, it should try to double-block the transmitter, | ||
452 | so that its state will change from RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED to | ||
453 | RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED should the hardware blocking cease. | ||
71 | 454 | ||
72 | For each key an input device will be created which will send out the correct | 455 | Please refer to the source for more documentation. |
73 | key event when the rfkill key has been pressed. | 456 | |
457 | =============================================================================== | ||
458 | 5: Userspace support | ||
459 | |||
460 | rfkill devices issue uevents (with an action of "change"), with the following | ||
461 | environment variables set: | ||
462 | |||
463 | RFKILL_NAME | ||
464 | RFKILL_STATE | ||
465 | RFKILL_TYPE | ||
466 | |||
467 | The ABI for these variables is defined by the sysfs attributes. It is best | ||
468 | to take a quick look at the source to make sure of the possible values. | ||
469 | |||
470 | It is expected that HAL will trap those, and bridge them to DBUS, etc. These | ||
471 | events CAN and SHOULD be used to give feedback to the user about the rfkill | ||
472 | status of the system. | ||
473 | |||
474 | Input devices may issue events that are related to rfkill. These are the | ||
475 | various KEY_* events and SW_* events supported by rfkill-input.c. | ||
476 | |||
477 | ******IMPORTANT****** | ||
478 | When rfkill-input is ACTIVE, userspace is NOT TO CHANGE THE STATE OF AN RFKILL | ||
479 | SWITCH IN RESPONSE TO AN INPUT EVENT also handled by rfkill-input, unless it | ||
480 | has set to true the user_claim attribute for that particular switch. This rule | ||
481 | is *absolute*; do NOT violate it. | ||
482 | ******IMPORTANT****** | ||
483 | |||
484 | Userspace must not assume it is the only source of control for rfkill switches. | ||
485 | Their state CAN and WILL change due to firmware actions, direct user actions, | ||
486 | and the rfkill-input EPO override for *_RFKILL_ALL. | ||
487 | |||
488 | When rfkill-input is not active, userspace must initiate a rfkill status | ||
489 | change by writing to the "state" attribute in order for anything to happen. | ||
490 | |||
491 | Take particular care to implement EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL properly. When that | ||
492 | switch is set to OFF, *every* rfkill device *MUST* be immediately put into the | ||
493 | RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED state, no questions asked. | ||

500 | 0: RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED | ||
501 | transmitter is forced off, but one can override it | ||
502 | by a write to the state attribute; | ||
503 | 1: RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED | ||
504 | transmiter is NOT forced off, and may operate if | ||
505 | all other conditions for such operation are met | ||

507 | 2: RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED | ||

525 | In order to know the current state of an input device switch (like | ||
526 | SW_RFKILL_ALL), you will need to use an IOCTL. That information is not | ||
527 | available through sysfs in a generic way at this time, and it is not available | ||
528 | through the rfkill class AT ALL. | ||

7 | |||
8 | MMIO tracing was originally developed by Intel around 2003 for their Fault | ||
9 | Injection Test Harness. In Dec 2006 - Jan 2007, using the code from Intel, | ||
10 | Jeff Muizelaar created a tool for tracing MMIO accesses with the Nouveau | ||
11 | project in mind. Since then many people have contributed. | ||
12 | |||
13 | Mmiotrace was built for reverse engineering any memory-mapped IO device with | ||
14 | the Nouveau project as the first real user. Only x86 and x86_64 architectures | ||
15 | are supported. | ||
16 | |||
17 | Out-of-tree mmiotrace was originally modified for mainline inclusion and | ||
18 | ftrace framework by Pekka Paalanen <pq@iki.fi>. | ||
19 | |||
20 | |||
21 | Preparation | ||
22 | ----------- | ||
23 | |||
24 | Mmiotrace feature is compiled in by the CONFIG_MMIOTRACE option. Tracing is | ||
25 | disabled by default, so it is safe to have this set to yes. SMP systems are | ||
26 | supported, but tracing is unreliable and may miss events if more than one CPU | ||
27 | is on-line, therefore mmiotrace takes all but one CPU off-line during run-time | ||
28 | activation. You can re-enable CPUs by hand, but you have been warned, there | ||
29 | is no way to automatically detect if you are losing events due to CPUs racing. | ||

41 | Check for lost events. | ||
42 | |||
43 | |||
44 | Usage | ||
45 | ----- | ||
46 | |||
47 | Make sure debugfs is mounted to /debug. If not, (requires root privileges) | ||
48 | $ mount -t debugfs debugfs /debug | ||
49 | |||
50 | Check that the driver you are about to trace is not loaded. | ||
51 | |||
52 | Activate mmiotrace (requires root privileges): | ||
53 | $ echo mmiotrace > /debug/tracing/current_tracer | ||
54 | |||
55 | Start storing the trace: | ||
56 | $ cat /debug/tracing/trace_pipe > mydump.txt & | ||
57 | The 'cat' process should stay running (sleeping) in the background. | ||
58 | |||
59 | Load the driver you want to trace and use it. Mmiotrace will only catch MMIO | ||
60 | accesses to areas that are ioremapped while mmiotrace is active. | ||
61 | |||
62 | [Unimplemented feature:] | ||
63 | During tracing you can place comments (markers) into the trace by | ||
64 | $ echo "X is up" > /debug/tracing/marker | ||
65 | This makes it easier to see which part of the (huge) trace corresponds to | ||
66 | which action. It is recommended to place descriptive markers about what you | ||
67 | do. | ||
68 | |||
69 | Shut down mmiotrace (requires root privileges): | ||
70 | $ echo none > /debug/tracing/current_tracer | ||
71 | The 'cat' process exits. If it does not, kill it by issuing 'fg' command and | ||
72 | pressing ctrl+c. | ||
73 | |||
74 | Check that mmiotrace did not lose events due to a buffer filling up. Either | ||
75 | $ grep -i lost mydump.txt | ||
76 | which tells you exactly how many events were lost, or use | ||
77 | $ dmesg | ||
78 | to view your kernel log and look for "mmiotrace has lost events" warning. If | ||
79 | events were lost, the trace is incomplete. You should enlarge the buffers and | ||
80 | try again. Buffers are enlarged by first seeing how large the current buffers | ||
81 | are: | ||
82 | $ cat /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
83 | gives you a number. Approximately double this number and write it back, for | ||
84 | instance: | ||
85 | $ echo 128000 > /debug/tracing/trace_entries | ||
86 | Then start again from the top. | ||
87 | |||
88 | If you are doing a trace for a driver project, e.g. Nouveau, you should also | ||
89 | do the following before sending your results: | ||
90 | $ lspci -vvv > lspci.txt | ||
91 | $ dmesg > dmesg.txt | ||
92 | $ tar zcf pciid-nick-mmiotrace.tar.gz mydump.txt lspci.txt dmesg.txt | ||
93 | and then send the .tar.gz file. The trace compresses considerably. Replace | ||
94 | "pciid" and "nick" with the PCI ID or model name of your piece of hardware | ||
95 | under investigation and your nick name. | ||
96 | |||
97 | |||
98 | How Mmiotrace Works | ||
99 | ------------------- | ||
100 | |||
101 | Access to hardware IO-memory is gained by mapping addresses from PCI bus by | ||
102 | calling one of the ioremap_*() functions. Mmiotrace is hooked into the | ||
103 | __ioremap() function and gets called whenever a mapping is created. Mapping is | ||
104 | an event that is recorded into the trace log. Note, that ISA range mappings | ||
105 | are not caught, since the mapping always exists and is returned directly. | ||
106 | |||
107 | MMIO accesses are recorded via page faults. Just before __ioremap() returns, | ||
108 | the mapped pages are marked as not present. Any access to the pages causes a | ||
109 | fault. The page fault handler calls mmiotrace to handle the fault. Mmiotrace | ||
110 | marks the page present, sets TF flag to achieve single stepping and exits the | ||
111 | fault handler. The instruction that faulted is executed and debug trap is | ||
112 | entered. Here mmiotrace again marks the page as not present. The instruction | ||
113 | is decoded to get the type of operation (read/write), data width and the value | ||
114 | read or written. These are stored to the trace log. | ||
115 | |||
116 | Setting the page present in the page fault handler has a race condition on SMP | ||
117 | machines. During the single stepping other CPUs may run freely on that page | ||
118 | and events can be missed without a notice. Re-enabling other CPUs during | ||
119 | tracing is discouraged. | ||
120 | |||
121 | |||
122 | Trace Log Format | ||
123 | ---------------- | ||
124 | |||
125 | The raw log is text and easily filtered with e.g. grep and awk. One record is | ||
126 | one line in the log. A record starts with a keyword, followed by keyword | ||
127 | dependant arguments. Arguments are separated by a space, or continue until the | ||
128 | end of line. The format for version 20070824 is as follows: | ||
129 | |||
130 | Explanation Keyword Space separated arguments | ||
131 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
132 | |||
133 | read event R width, timestamp, map id, physical, value, PC, PID | ||
134 | write event W width, timestamp, map id, physical, value, PC, PID | ||
135 | ioremap event MAP timestamp, map id, physical, virtual, length, PC, PID | ||
136 | iounmap event UNMAP timestamp, map id, PC, PID | ||
137 | marker MARK timestamp, text | ||
138 | version VERSION the string "20070824" | ||
139 | info for reader LSPCI one line from lspci -v | ||
140 | PCI address map PCIDEV space separated /proc/bus/pci/devices data | ||
141 | unk. opcode UNKNOWN timestamp, map id, physical, data, PC, PID | ||
142 | |||
143 | Timestamp is in seconds with decimals. Physical is a PCI bus address, virtual | ||
144 | is a kernel virtual address. Width is the data width in bytes and value is the | ||
145 | data value. Map id is an arbitrary id number identifying the mapping that was | ||
146 | used in an operation. PC is the program counter and PID is process id. PC is | ||
147 | zero if it is not recorded. PID is always zero as tracing MMIO accesses | ||
148 | originating in user space memory is not yet supported. | ||
149 | |||
150 | For instance, the following awk filter will pass all 32-bit writes that target | ||
151 | physical addresses in the range [0xfb73ce40, 0xfb800000[ | ||
152 | |||
153 | $ awk '/W 4 / { adr=strtonum($5); if (adr >= 0xfb73ce40 && | ||
154 | adr < 0xfb800000) print; }' | ||
155 | |||
156 | |||
157 | Tools for Developers | ||
158 | -------------------- | ||
159 | |||
160 | The user space tools include utilities for: | ||
161 | - replacing numeric addresses and values with hardware register names | ||
162 | - replaying MMIO logs, i.e., re-executing the recorded writes | ||

222 | Alignment vs. Networking | ||
223 | ======================== | ||
224 | |||
225 | On architectures that require aligned loads, networking requires that the IP | ||
226 | header is aligned on a four-byte boundary to optimise the IP stack. For | ||
227 | regular ethernet hardware, the constant NET_IP_ALIGN is used. On most | ||
228 | architectures this constant has the value 2 because the normal ethernet | ||
229 | header is 14 bytes long, so in order to get proper alignment one needs to | ||
230 | DMA to an address which can be expressed as 4*n + 2. One notable exception | ||
231 | here is powerpc which defines NET_IP_ALIGN to 0 because DMA to unaligned | ||
232 | addresses can be very expensive and dwarf the cost of unaligned loads. | ||
233 | |||
234 | For some ethernet hardware that cannot DMA to unaligned addresses like | ||
235 | 4*n+2 or non-ethernet hardware, this can be a problem, and it is then | ||
236 | required to copy the incoming frame into an aligned buffer. Because this is | ||
237 | unnecessary on architectures that can do unaligned accesses, the code can be | ||
238 | made dependent on CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS like so: | ||
239 | |||
240 | #ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS | ||
241 | skb = original skb | ||
242 | #else | ||
243 | skb = copy skb | ||

13 | |||
14 | 1. General issues | ||
15 | |||
16 | 1.1 Why a new UHCI driver, we already have one?!? | ||
17 | |||
18 | Correct, but its internal structure got more and more mixed up by the (still | ||
19 | ongoing) efforts to get isochronous transfers (ISO) to work. | ||
20 | Since there is an increasing need for reliable ISO-transfers (especially | ||
21 | for USB-audio needed by TS and for a DAB-USB-Receiver build by GA and DF), | ||
22 | this state was a bit unsatisfying in our opinion, so we've decided (based | ||
23 | on knowledge and experiences with the old UHCI driver) to start | ||
24 | from scratch with a new approach, much simpler but at the same time more | ||
25 | powerful. | ||
26 | It is inspired by the way Win98/Win2000 handles USB requests via URBs, | ||
27 | but it's definitely 100% free of MS-code and doesn't crash while | ||
28 | unplugging an used ISO-device like Win98 ;-) | ||
29 | Some code for HW setup and root hub management was taken from the | ||
30 | original UHCI driver, but heavily modified to fit into the new code. | ||
31 | The invention of the basic concept, and major coding were completed in two | ||
32 | days (and nights) on the 16th and 17th of October 1999, now known as the | ||
33 | great USB-October-Revolution started by GA, DF, and TS ;-) | ||
34 | |||
35 | Since the concept is in no way UHCI dependent, we hope that it will also be | ||
36 | transferred to the OHCI-driver, so both drivers share a common API. | ||
37 | |||
38 | 1.2. Advantages and disadvantages | ||
39 | |||
40 | + All USB transfer types work now! | ||
41 | + Asynchronous operation | ||
42 | + Simple, but powerful interface (only two calls for start and cancel) | ||
43 | + Easy migration to the new API, simplified by a compatibility API | ||
44 | + Simple usage of ISO transfers | ||
45 | + Automatic linking of requests | ||
46 | + ISO transfers allow variable length for each frame and striping | ||
47 | + No CPU dependent and non-portable atomic memory access, no asm()-inlines | ||
48 | + Tested on x86 and Alpha | ||
49 | |||
50 | - Rewriting for ISO transfers needed | ||
51 | |||
52 | 1.3. Is there some compatibility to the old API? | ||
53 | |||
54 | Yes, but only for control, bulk and interrupt transfers. We've implemented | ||
55 | some wrapper calls for these transfer types. The usbcore works fine with | ||
56 | these wrappers. For ISO there's no compatibility, because the old ISO-API | ||
57 | and its semantics were unnecessary complicated in our opinion. | ||
58 | |||
59 | 1.4. What's really working? | ||
60 | |||
61 | As said above, CTRL and BULK already work fine even with the wrappers, | ||
62 | so legacy code wouldn't notice the change. | ||
63 | Regarding to Thomas, ISO transfers now run stable with USB audio. | ||
64 | INT transfers (e.g. mouse driver) work fine, too. | ||
65 | |||
66 | 1.5. Are there any bugs? | ||
67 | |||
68 | No ;-) | ||
69 | Hm... | ||
70 | Well, of course this implementation needs extensive testing on all available | ||
71 | hardware, but we believe that any fixes shouldn't harm the overall concept. | ||
72 | |||
73 | 1.6. What should be done next? | ||
74 | |||
75 | A large part of the request handling seems to be identical for UHCI and | ||
76 | OHCI, so it would be a good idea to extract the common parts and have only | ||
77 | the HW specific stuff in uhci.c. Furthermore, all other USB device drivers | ||
78 | should need URBification, if they use isochronous or interrupt transfers. | ||
79 | One thing missing in the current implementation (and the old UHCI driver) | ||
80 | is fair queueing for BULK transfers. Since this would need (in principle) | ||
81 | the alteration of already constructed TD chains (to switch from depth to | ||
82 | breadth execution), another way has to be found. Maybe some simple | ||
83 | heuristics work with the same effect. | ||
84 | |||
85 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
86 | |||
87 | 2. Internal structure and mechanisms | ||
88 | |||
89 | To get quickly familiar with the internal structures, here's a short | ||
90 | description how the new UHCI driver works. However, the ultimate source of | ||
91 | truth is only uhci.c! | ||
92 | |||
93 | 2.1. Descriptor structure (QHs and TDs) | ||
94 | |||
95 | During initialization, the following skeleton is allocated in init_skel: | ||
96 | |||
97 | framespecific | common chain | ||
98 | |||
99 | framelist[] | ||
100 | [ 0 ]-----> TD --> TD -------\ | ||
101 | [ 1 ]-----> TD --> TD --------> TD ----> QH -------> QH -------> QH ---> NULL | ||
102 | ... TD --> TD -------/ | ||
103 | [1023]-----> TD --> TD ------/ | ||
104 | |||
105 | ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ | ||
106 | 1024 TDs for 7 TDs for 1 TD for Start of Start of End Chain | ||
107 | ISO INT (2-128ms) 1ms-INT CTRL Chain BULK Chain | ||
108 | |||
109 | For each CTRL or BULK transfer a new QH is allocated and the containing data | ||
110 | transfers are appended as (vertical) TDs. After building the whole QH with its | ||
111 | dangling TDs, the QH is inserted before the BULK Chain QH (for CTRL) or | ||
112 | before the End Chain QH (for BULK). Since only the QH->next pointers are | ||
113 | affected, no atomic memory operation is required. The three QHs in the | ||
114 | common chain are never equipped with TDs! | ||
115 | |||
116 | For ISO or INT, the TD for each frame is simply inserted into the appropriate | ||
117 | ISO/INT-TD-chain for the desired frame. The 7 skeleton INT-TDs are scattered | ||
118 | among the 1024 frames similar to the old UHCI driver. | ||
119 | |||
120 | For CTRL/BULK/ISO, the last TD in the transfer has the IOC-bit set. For INT, | ||
121 | every TD (there is only one...) has the IOC-bit set. | ||
122 | |||
123 | Besides the data for the UHCI controller (2 or 4 32bit words), the descriptors | ||
124 | are double-linked through the .vertical and .horizontal elements in the | ||
125 | SW data of the descriptor (using the double-linked list structures and | ||
126 | operations), but SW-linking occurs only in closed domains, i.e. for each of | ||
127 | the 1024 ISO-chains and the 8 INT-chains there is a closed cycle. This | ||
128 | simplifies all insertions and unlinking operations and avoids costly | ||
129 | bus_to_virt()-calls. | ||
130 | |||
131 | 2.2. URB structure and linking to QH/TDs | ||
132 | |||
133 | During assembly of the QH and TDs of the requested action, these descriptors | ||
134 | are stored in urb->urb_list, so the allocated QH/TD descriptors are bound to | ||
135 | this URB. | ||
136 | If the assembly was successful and the descriptors were added to the HW chain, | ||
137 | the corresponding URB is inserted into a global URB list for this controller. | ||
138 | This list stores all pending URBs. | ||
139 | |||
140 | 2.3. Interrupt processing | ||
141 | |||
142 | Since UHCI provides no means to directly detect completed transactions, the | ||
143 | following is done in each UHCI interrupt (uhci_interrupt()): | ||
144 | |||
145 | For each URB in the pending queue (process_urb()), the ACTIVE-flag of the | ||
146 | associated TDs are processed (depending on the transfer type | ||
147 | process_{transfer|interrupt|iso}()). If the TDs are not active anymore, | ||
148 | they indicate the completion of the transaction and the status is calculated. | ||
149 | Inactive QH/TDs are removed from the HW chain (since the host controller | ||
150 | already removed the TDs from the QH, no atomic access is needed) and | ||
151 | eventually the URB is marked as completed (OK or errors) and removed from the | ||
152 | pending queue. Then the next linked URB is submitted. After (or immediately | ||
153 | before) that, the completion handler is called. | ||
154 | |||
155 | 2.4. Unlinking URBs | ||
156 | |||
157 | First, all QH/TDs stored in the URB are unlinked from the HW chain. | ||
158 | To ensure that the host controller really left a vertical TD chain, we | ||
159 | wait for one frame. After that, the TDs are physically destroyed. | ||
160 | |||
161 | 2.5. URB linking and the consequences | ||
162 | |||
163 | Since URBs can be linked and the corresponding submit_urb is called in | ||
164 | the UHCI-interrupt, all work associated with URB/QH/TD assembly has to be | ||
165 | interrupt save. This forces kmalloc to use GFP_ATOMIC in the interrupt. | ||
