* firewire: ohci: dump_stack() for PHY regs read/write failuresPeter Hurley2013-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | A stack trace is an invaluable tool in determining the basis and cause of PHY regs read/write failures. Include PHY reg addr (and value for writes) in the diagnostic.

* firewire: ohci: Improve bus reset error messagesPeter Hurley2013-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many of the error messages possible from bus_reset_work() do not contain enough information to distinguish which error condition occurred nor enough information to evaluate the error afterwards. Differentiate all error conditions in bus_reset_work(); add additional information to make error diagnosis possible.

* firewire: ohci: fix VIA VT6306 video receptionAndy Leiserson2013-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add quirk for VT6306 wake bit behavior. VT6306 seems to reread the wrong descriptor when the wake bit is written. work around by putting a copy of the branch address in the first descriptor of the block. [Stefan R: This fixes the known broken video reception via gstreamer on VIA VT6306. 100% repeatable testcase: $ gst-launch-0.10 dv1394src \! dvdemux \! dvdec \! xvimagesink with a camcorder or other DV source connected. Likewise for MPEG2-TS reception via gstreamer, e.g. from TV settop boxes. Perhaps this also fixes dv4l on VT6306, but this is as yet untested. Kino, dvgrab or FFADO had not been affected by this chip quirk. Additional comments from Andy:] I've looked into some problems with the wake bit on a vt6306 family chip (1106:3044, rev 46). I used this firewire card in a mythtv setup (ISO receive MPEG2 stream) with Debian 2.6.32 kernels for ~2 years without problems. Since upgrading to 3.2, I've been having problems with the input stream freezing -- input data stops until I restart mythtv (I expect closing and reopening the device would be sufficient). This happens infrequently, maybe one out of 20 recordings. I eventually determined that the problem is more likely to occur if the system is loaded. I isolated the kernel version as the triggering SW factor and then specifically the change from dualbuffer back to packet-per-buffer DMA mode. The possibility that the controller does not properly respond to the wake bit was suggested in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=415841, but not proven. Based on the fact that dualbuffer mode worked while packet-per-buffer has trouble, I guessed that upon seeing the wake bit written, the vt6306 controller only checks the branch address in the first descriptor of the block, even if that is not the correct place to look (because the block has multiple descriptors). This theory seems to be correct. When the ISO reception is hung, I am able to resume it by manually writing the branch address to the first descriptor in the block, and then writing the wake bit. I've had luck so far with the attached patch, so I'm including it. It's probably not a complete solution -- I haven't tested transmit modes to see whether they have a similar issue. I doubt that the quirk test is any cheaper than just writing the extra branch address in all cases, but it does reduce the risk of breaking other hardware.

* firewire: ohci: Check LPS before register access on pci removalPeter Hurley2013-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A pci device can be removed while in its suspended state. If the ohci host controller is suspended, the PHY is also in low-power mode and LPS is disabled. If LPS is disabled, most of the host registers aren't accessible, including IntMaskClear. Furthermore, access to these registers when LPS is disabled can cause hard lockups on some hardware. Since interrupts are already disabled in this mode, further action is unnecessary. Test LPS before attempting to write IntMaskClear to disable interrupts.

* firewire: ohci: Fix double free_irq()Peter Hurley2013-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A pci device can be removed while in its suspended state. Because the ohci driver freed the irq to suspend, free_irq() is called twice; once from pci_remove() and again from pci_suspend(), which issues the warning below [1]. Rather than allocate the irq in the .enable() path, move the allocation to .probe(). Consequently, the irq is not reallocated upon pci_resume() and thus is not freed upon pci_suspend().

It was possible to write to reserved bit and cause a GP fault crashing the kernel. This patch fixes the problem by correctly marking the reserved bits in the valid mask for all the processors mentioned above. A distinction between desktop and server parts is introduced because bits 24-30 are only available on the server parts. This version of the patch is just a rebase to perf/urgent tree and should apply to older kernels as well.

Space that hasn't yet been garbage collected isn't available for use and so isn't counted in the remaining_space field returned by QueryVariableInfo(). Combined with commit 68d9298 this can cause problems. Some implementations don't garbage collect until the remaining space is smaller than the maximum variable size, and as a result check_var_size() will always fail once more than 50% of the variable store has been used even if most of that space is marked as available for garbage collection. The user is unable to create new variables, and deleting variables doesn't increase the remaining space. The problem that 68d9298 was attempting to avoid was one where certain platforms fail if the actively used space is greater than 50% of the available storage space. We should be able to calculate that by simply summing the size of each available variable and subtracting that from the total storage space. With luck this will fix the problem described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55471 without permitting damage to occur to the machines 68d9298 was attempting to fix.

This makes it awkward for us to figure out how much space they use at runtime. In theory we could figure this out by simply comparing the results from QueryVariableInfo() to the space used by all of our variables, but that fails if the platform doesn't garbage collect on every boot. Thankfully, calling QueryVariableInfo() while still inside boot services gives a more reliable answer. This patch passes that information from the EFI boot stub up to the efi platform code.

It seems that my compiler isn't inlining cyc_to_sched_clock() though, so I'm hitting a recursion bug when I enable the function graph tracer, causing my system to crash. Marking these functions notrace fixes it. Technically cyc_to_ns() doesn't need the notrace because it's already marked inline, but let's just add it so that if we ever remove inline from that function it doesn't blow up.

Thus the L2 needs to be invalidated after both L1 caches are disabled. On kexec before the starting the code for relocation the kernel, the L1 caches are disabled in cpu_froc_fin (cpu_v7_proc_fin for Feroceon), but after L2 cache is never invalidated, because inv_all is not set in cache-feroceon-l2.c. So kernel relocation and decompression may has (and usually has) errors. Setting the function enables L2 invalidation and fixes the issue.

I was >this< close to ripping it out, when a 740t core-tile materialised in the office, so I've had a crack at fixing things up: - Fix the ram/flash area calculations so that we actually set the condition flags before testing them... - Fix the proc_info structure so that __cpu_io_mmu_flags are defined as 0, placing the __cpu_flush pointer at the correct offset - Re-number the registers used during __arm740_setup so that we don't clobber the machine ID et al - Advertise Thumb support via the hwcaps, since 740T is the only 740 implementation.

Tested with 740T core-tile on Integrator/AP baseboard. Acked-by: Hyok S. Choi <hyok.choi@samsung.com> Acked-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
