      Fix e100 on systems that have cache incoherent DMA · 7734f6e6
      由 David Acker 提交于 
      On the systems that have cache incoherent DMA, including ARM, there
is a race condition between software allocating a new receive buffer
and hardware writing into a buffer.  The two race on touching the last
Receive Frame Descriptor (RFD).  It has its el-bit set and its next
link equal to 0.  When hardware encounters this buffer it attempts to
write data to it and then update Status Word bits and Actual Count in
the RFD.  At the same time software may try to clear the el-bit and
set the link address to a new buffer.

Since the entire RFD is once cache-line, the two write operations can
collide.  This can lead to the receive unit stalling or interpreting
random memory as its receive area.

The fix is to set the el-bit on and the size to 0 on the next to last
buffer in the chain.  When the hardware encounters this buffer it stops
and does not write to it at all.  The hardware issues an RNR interrupt
with the receive unit in the No Resources state.  Software can write
to the tail of the list because it knows hardware will stop on the
previous descriptor that was marked as the end of list.

Once it has a new next to last buffer prepared, it can clear the el-bit
and set the size on the previous one.  The race on this buffer is safe
since the link already points to a valid next buffer and the software
can handle the race setting the size (assuming aligned 16 bit writes
are atomic with respect to the DMA read). If the hardware sees the
el-bit cleared without the size set, it will move on to the next buffer
and skip this one.  If it sees the size set but the el-bit still set,
it will complete that buffer and then RNR interrupt and wait.

      PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revision · 44c10138
      由 Auke Kok 提交于 
      Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.

This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.

In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

      e100: Optionally use I/O mode only to access register space · 27345bb6
      由 Jesse Brandeburg 提交于 
      It appears that some systems still like e100 better if it uses
I/O access mode.  Setting the new parameter use_io=1 will cause
all driver instances to use io mapping to access the register
space on the e100 device.

      [netdrvr e100] experiment with doing RX in a similar manner to eepro100 · d52df4a3
      由 Scott Feldman 提交于 
      I was going to say that eepro100's speedo_rx_link() does the same DMA
abuse as e100, but then I noticed one little detail: eepro100 sets  both
EL (end of list) and S (suspend) bits in the RFD as it chains it  to the
RFD list.  e100 was only setting the EL bit.  Hmmm, that's  interesting.
That means that if HW reads a RFD with the S-bit set,  it'll process
that RFD and then suspend the receive unit.  The  receive unit will
resume when SW clears the S-bit.  There is no need  for SW to restart
the receive unit.  Which means a lot of the receive  unit state tracking
code in the driver goes away.

So here's a patch against 2.6.14.  (Sorry for inlining it; the mailer
I'm using now will mess with the word wrap).  I can't test this on
XScale (unless someone has an e100 module for Gumstix :) .  It should
be doing exactly what eepro100 does with RFDs.  I don't believe this
change will introduce a performance hit because the S-bit and EL-bit  go
hand-in-hand meaning if we're going to suspend because of the S- bit,
we're on the last resource anyway, so we'll have to wait for SW  to
replenish.

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      由 David Howells 提交于 
      Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.
