In preparation for a reset_resume implementation, have the firmware image be cached in memory when the system goes to suspend and released when out. This is needed in case the device resets during suspend; the driver can't load firmware until resume is completed or bad deadlocks happen. The modus operandi for this was copied from the Orinoco USB driver. The caching is done with a kobject to avoid race conditions when releasing it. The fw loader path is altered only to first check for a cached image before trying to load from disk. A Power Management event notifier is register to call i2400m_fw_cache() or i2400m_fw_uncache() which take care of the actual cache management.

In preparation for reset_resume support, in which the same code path is going to be used, add a diagnostic message to dev_reset_handle() that can be used to distinguish how the device got there. This uses the new payload argument added to i2400m_schedule_work() by the previous commit. Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Forthcoming commits use having a payload argument added to i2400m_schedule_work(), which then becomes nearly identical to i2400m_queue_work(). This patch thus cleans up both's implementation, making it share common helpers and adding the payload argument to i2400m_schedule_work(). Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

This modifies the bootrom initialization code of the i2400m driver so it can more easily support upcoming hardware. Currently, the code detects two types of barkers (magic numbers) sent by the device to indicate the types of firmware it would take (signed vs non-signed). This schema is extended so that multiple reboot barkers are recognized; upcoming hw will expose more types barkers which will have to match a header in the firmware image before we can load it. For that, a barker database is introduced; the first time the device sends a barker, it is matched in the database. That gives the driver the information needed to decide how to upload the firmware and which types of firmware to use. The database can be populated from module parameters. The execution flow is not altered; a new function (i2400m_is_boot_barker) is introduced to determine in the RX path if the device has sent a boot barker. This function is becoming heavier, so it is put away from the hot reception path [this is why there is some reorganization in sdio-rx.c:i2400ms_rx and usb-notifc.c:i2400mu_notification_grok()]. The documentation on the process has also been updated. All these modifications are heavily based on previous work by Dirk Brandewie <dirk.brandewie@intel.com>.

Add "debug" module options to all the wimax modules (including drivers) so that the debug levels can be set upon kernel boot or module load time. This is needed as currently there was a limitation where the debug levels could only be set when a device was succesfully enumerated. This made it difficult to debug issues that made a device not probe properly. Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

When the i2400m device resets, the driver code will force some functions to return a -ERESTARTSYS error code, which can is used by the caller to determine which recovery actions to take. However, in certain situations the only thing that can be done is to bubble up said error code to user space, for handling. However, -ERESTARSYS was a poor choice, as it is supposed to be used by the kernel only. As such, replace -ERESTARTSYS with -EL3RST; as well, in i2400m_msg_to_dev(), when the device is in boot mode (following a recent reset), return -EL3RST instead of -ENODEV (meaning the device is in bootrom mode after a reset, not that the device was disconnected, and thus, normal commands cannot be executed).

When a device reset happens during firmware load [in i2400m_dev_bootstrap()], __i2400m_dev_start() will retry a number of times. However, for those retries to be able to accomplish anything, the device's bootrom has to be reinitialized. Thus, on the retry path, pass the I2400M_MAC_REINIT to the firmware load code.

The code that sets up the i2400m (firmware load and general driver setup after it) includes a couple of retry loops. The SDIO device sometimes can get in more complicated corners than the USB one (due to its interaction with other SDIO functions), that require trying a few more times. To solve that, without having a failing USB device taking longer to be considered dead, allow the retry counts to be specified by the bus-specific driver, which the general driver takes as a parameter.

When a device reboot happens when we are under probe, with init_mutex taken, make sure we can recover. Have dev_reset_handle set boot mode and i2400m_msg_to_dev() will see it and fail gracefully instead of timing out. Found and diagnosed by Cindy H. Kao.

The i2400m driver waits for the device to report being ready for entering power save before asking it to do so. This module parameter allows control of said operation; if disabled, the driver won't ask the device to enter power save mode. This is useful in setups where power saving is not so important or when the overhead imposed by network reentry after power save is not acceptable; by combining this with parameter 'idle_mode_disabled', the driver will always maintain both the connection and the device in active state.

By running 'echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/wimax:wmxX/i2400m/trace_msg_from_user', the driver will echo to user space all the commands being sent to the device from user space, along with the responses. However, this only helps with the commands being sent from user space; with this patch, the trace hook is moved to i2400m_msg_to_dev(), which is the single access point for running commands to the device (both by user space and the kernel driver). This allows better debugging by having a complete stream of commands/acks and reports. Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

When commands are sent from user space, trace both the command sent and the answer received over the "echo" pipe instead of over the "trace" pipe when command tracing is enabled. As well, when the device sends a reports/indications, send it over the "echo" pipe. The "trace" pipe is used by the device to send firmware traces; gets confusing. Another named pipe makes it easier to split debug information. Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

The WiMAX i2400m driver needs to generate a fake source MAC address to fake an ethernet header (for destination, the card's MAC is used). This is the source of the packet, which is the basestation it came from. The basestation's mac address is not usable for this, as it uses its own namespace and it is not always available. Currently the fake source MAC address was being set to all zeros, which was causing trouble with bridging. Use random_ether_addr() to generate a proper one that creates no trouble.

Allow the device to give the driver RX data with reorder information. When that is done, the device will indicate the driver if a packet has to be held in a (sorted) queue. It will also tell the driver when held packets have to be released to the OS. This is done to improve the WiMAX-protocol level retransmission support when missing frames are detected. The code docs provide details about the implementation. In general, this just hooks into the RX path in rx.c; if a packet with the reorder bit in the RX header is detected, the reorder information in the header is extracted and one of the four main reorder operations are executed. In one case (queue) no packet will be delivered to the networking stack, just queued, whereas in the others (reset, update_ws and queue_update_ws), queued packet might be delivered depending on the window start for the specific queue. The modifications to files other than rx.c are: - control.c: during device initialization, enable reordering support if the rx_reorder_disabled module parameter is not enabled - driver.c: expose a rx_reorder_disable module parameter and call i2400m_rx_setup/release() to initialize/shutdown RX reorder support. - i2400m.h: introduce members in 'struct i2400m' needed for implementing reorder support. - linux/i2400m.h: introduce TLVs, commands and constant definitions related to RX reorder Last but not least, the rx reorder code includes an small circular log where the last N reorder operations are recorded to be displayed in case of inconsistency. Otherwise diagnosing issues would be almost impossible. Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

For power saving reasons, WiMAX links can be put in idle mode while connected after a certain time of the link not being used for tx or rx. In this mode, the device pages the base-station regularly and when data is ready to be transmitted, the link is revived. This patch allows the user to control the time the device has to be idle before it decides to go to idle mode from a sysfs interace. It also updates the initialization code to acknowledge the module variable 'idle_mode_disabled' when the firmware is a newer version (upcoming 1.4 vs 2.6.29's v1.3). The method for setting the idle mode timeout in the older firmwares is much more limited and can be only done at initialization time. Thus, the sysfs file will return -ENOSYS on older ones.

Upcoming modifications will need to test for the running firmware version before activating a feature or not. This is helpful to implement backward compatibility with older firmware versions. Modify i2400m_firmware_check() to encode in i2400m->fw_version the major and minor version numbers of the firmware interface. As well, move the call to be done as the very first operation once we have communication with the device during probe() [in __i2400m_dev_start()]. This is needed so any operation that is executed afterwards can determine which fw version it is talking to. Signed-off-by: NInaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

As reported by Toralf Förster and Randy Dunlap. - http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2009-January/000460.html - http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/29/279 The definitions needed for the wimax stack and i2400m driver debug infrastructure was, by mistake, compiled depending on CONFIG_DEBUG_FS (by them being placed in the debugfs.c files); thus the build broke in 2.6.29-rc3 when debugging was enabled (CONFIG_WIMAX_DEBUG) and DEBUG_FS was disabled. These definitions are always needed if debug is enabled at compile time (independently of DEBUG_FS being or not enabled), so moving them to a file that is always compiled fixes the issue.
