EHCI 1.1 addendum introduced several energy efficiency extensions for EHCI USB host controllers: 1. LPM (link power management) 2. Per-port change 3. Shorter periodic frame list 4. Hardware prefetching This patch is intended to define the HW bits and debug interface for EHCI 1.1 addendum. The LPM and Per-port change patches will be sent out after this patch.

This patch (as1382) changes the USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED Kconfig option to be non-experimental and to default to Y. This option has existed for a long time, and I have not heard any complaints concerning it. By contrast, several people have reported that their devices could be made to work only by enabling the option. The point of changing the default is to cause the option to be enabled by distros that simply use the default settings for esoteric things like this. This change was motivated by Bugzilla #15649.

This patch (as1392) fixes a bug in uhci-hcd: The start_rh() routine is supposed to be called with the private spinlock held. If an IRQ comes in at just the wrong time, the driver will think the controller has died when in fact it simply hasn't start yet. The patch also addresses some issues that may prevent an URB from being unlinked after the controller has stopped. This is an abnormal occurrence (ordinarily the controller stops only when the entire bus is suspended and hence there are no active URBs), so the pathways haven't gotten much testing. These two changes may be a little more than is strictly necessary, but clearly they won't hurt.

This patch (as1391) fixes a problem that can occur when USB host controller hardware is hot-unplugged. If no interrupts are generated by the unplug then the HCD may not realize that the controller is gone, and the subsequent unbind may hang waiting for interrupts that never arrive. The solution (for PCI-based controllers) is to call the HCD's interrupt handler at the start of usb_hcd_pci_remove(). If the hardware is gone, the handler will realize this when it tries to read the controller's status register.

由 Alan Stern 提交于
This patch (as1390) fixes a problem that crops up when a UHCI host controller is unbound from uhci-hcd while there are still some active URBs. The URBs have to be unlinked when the root hub is unregistered, and uhci-hcd relies upon root-hub status polls as part of its unlinking procedure. But usb_hcd_poll_rh_status() won't make those status calls if hcd->rh_registered is clear, and the flag is cleared _before_ the unregistration takes place. Since hcd->rh_registered is used for other things and needs to be cleared early, the solution is to add a new flag (rh_pollable) and use it instead. It gets cleared _after_ the root hub is unregistered. Now that the status polls don't end too soon, we have to make sure they also don't occur too late -- after the root hub's usb_device structure or the HCD's private structures are deallocated. Therefore the patch adds usb_get_device() and usb_put_device() calls to protect the root hub structure, and it adds an extra del_timer_sync() to prevent the root-hub timer from causing an unexpected status poll. This additional complexity would not be needed if the HCD framework had provided separate stop() and release() callbacks instead of just stop(). This lack could be fixed at some future time (although it would require changes to every host controller driver); when that happens this patch won't be needed any more.

This patch (as1389) fixes some errors in the failure pathway of usb_add_hcd(). The actions it takes ought to be exactly the same as those taken by usb_remove_hcd(), but they aren't. In one case (removal of the usb_bus_attr_group), the two routines are brought into agreement by changing usb_remove_hcd(). All the other discrepancies are fixed by changing usb_add_hcd().

This change addresses the following situation: - Thread A acquires the rwsem for read - Thread B tries to acquire the rwsem for write, notices there is already an active owner for the rwsem. - Thread C tries to acquire the rwsem for read, notices that thread B already tried to acquire it. - Thread C grabs the spinlock and queues itself on the wait queue. - Thread B grabs the spinlock and queues itself behind C. At this point A is the only remaining active owner on the rwsem. In this situation thread B could notice that it was the last active writer on the rwsem, and decide to wake C to let it proceed in parallel with A since they both only want the rwsem for read.

This has a few nice properties which will be used in following changes: - when the spinlock is held and the waiter list is known to be non-empty, count < RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS <=> there is an active writer on that sem - count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS <=> there are waiting threads and no active readers/writers on that sem Signed-off-by: NMichel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Acked-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com> Cc: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Cc: Ying Han <yinghan@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

In __rwsem_do_wake(), we can skip the active count check unless we come there from up_xxxx(). Also when checking the active count, it is not actually necessary to increment it; this allows us to get rid of the read side undo code and simplify the calculation of the final rwsem count adjustment once we've counted the reader threads to wake. The basic observation is the following. When there are waiter threads on a rwsem and the spinlock is held, other threads can only increment the active count by trying to grab the rwsem in down_xxxx(). However down_xxxx() will notice there are waiter threads and take the down_failed path, blocking to acquire the spinlock on the way there. Therefore, a thread observing an active count of zero with waiters queued and the spinlock held, is protected against other threads acquiring the rwsem until it wakes the last waiter or releases the spinlock.

This is in preparation for later changes in the series. In __rwsem_do_wake(), the first queued waiter is checked first in order to determine whether it's a writer or a reader. The code paths diverge at this point. The code that checks and increments the rwsem active count is duplicated on both sides - the point is that later changes in the series will be able to independently modify both sides.
