The firewire nodemanager function "nodemgr_host_thread" contains a loop
that calls try_to_freeze near the top of the loop, but then delays for
up to 3.25 seconds (plus time to do work) before getting back to the top
of the loop. When starting a cycle post-boot, this doesn't seem to bite,
but it is causing a noticeable delay at boot time, when freezing
processes prior to starting to read the image.
The following patch adds invocation of try_to_freeze to the subloops
that are used in the body of this function. With these additions, the
time to freeze when starting to resume at boot time is virtually zero.
I'm no expert on firewire, and so don't know that we shouldn't check
the return value and jump back to the top of the loop or such like after
being frozen, but I submit it for your consideration.

The delay until nodemgr freezes was up to 0.25s (plus time for node
probes) in Linux 2.6.27 and older and up to 3.25s (plus ~) since Linux
2.6.28-rc1, hence much more noticeable.
try_to_freeze() without any jump is correct. The surrounding code in
the respective loops will catch whether another bus reset happens during
the freeze and handle it.

Fix a possible though highly unlikely deadlock:
Thread A: Thread B:
- acquire mmap_sem - dv1394_ioctl/read/write()
- dv1394_mmap() - acquire video->mtx
- acquire video->mtx - copy_to/from_user(), possible page fault:
acquire mmap_sem
The simplest fix is to use mutex_trylock() instead of mutex_lock() in
dv1394_mmap(). This changes the behavior under contention in a way
which is visible to userspace clients. However, my guess is that no
clients exist which use mmap vs. ioctl/read/write on the dv1394
character device file interface in concurrent threads.

Regression in 2.6.28-rc1: When I added the new state_mutex which
prevents corruption of raw1394's internal state when accessed by
multithreaded client applications, the following possible though
highly unlikely deadlock slipped in:
Thread A: Thread B:
- acquire mmap_sem - raw1394_write() or raw1394_ioctl()
- raw1394_mmap() - acquire state_mutex
- acquire state_mutex - copy_to/from_user(), possible page fault:
acquire mmap_sem
The simplest fix is to use mutex_trylock() instead of mutex_lock() in
raw1394_mmap(). This changes the behavior under contention in a way
which is visible to userspace clients. However, since multithreaded
access was entirely buggy before state_mutex was added and libraw1394's
documentation advised application programmers to use a handle only in a
single thread, this change in behaviour should not be an issue in
practice at all.
Since we have to use mutex_trylock() in raw1394_mmap() regardless
whether /dev/raw1394 was opened with O_NONBLOCK or not, we now use
mutex_trylock() unconditionally everywhere for state_mutex, just to have
consistent behavior.

There are situations when nodes vanish from the bus and come back in
quickly thereafter:
- When certain bus-powered hubs are plugged in,
- when certain disk enclosures are switched from self-power to bus
power or vice versa and break the daisy chain during the transition,
- when the user plugs a cable out and quickly plugs it back in, e.g.
to reorder a daisy chain (works on Mac OS X if done quickly enough),
- when certain hubs temporarily malfunction during high bus traffic.
The ieee1394 driver's nodemgr already contained a function to set
vanished nodes aside into "limbo"; i.e. they wouldn't actually be
deleted right away. (In fact, only unloading the driver or writing into
an obscure sysfs attribute would delete them eventually.) If nodes
reappeared later, they would be resurrected out of limbo.
Moving nodes into and out of limbo was accompanied with calling the
.suspend() and .resume() driver methods of the drivers which were bound
to a respective node's unit directories. Not only is this somewhat
strange due to the intended use of these driver methods for power
management, also the sbp2 driver in particular does not implement
.suspend() and .resume(). Hence sbp2 would be disconnected from devices
in situations as listed above.
We now:
- leave drivers bound when nodes go into limbo,
- call the drivers' .update() when nodes come out of limbo,
- automatically delete in-limbo nodes 3 seconds after the last
bus reset and bus rescan.
- Because of the automatic removal, the now obsolete bus attribute
/sys/bus/ieee1394/destroy_node is removed.
This especially lets sbp2 survive brief disconnections. You can for
example yank a disk's cable and plug it back in while reading the
respective disk with dd, but dd will happily continue as if nothing
happened.

Application programs should use a libraw1394 handle only in a single
thread. The raw1394 driver was apparently relying on this, because it
did nothing to protect its fi->state variable from corruption due to
concurrent accesses.
We now serialize the fi->state accesses. This affects the write() path.
We re-use the state_mutex which was introduced to protect fi->iso_state
accesses in the ioctl() path. These paths and accesses are independent
of each other, hence separate mutexes could be used. But I don't see
much benefit in that.

Refactor the ioctl dispatcher in order to move a fraction of it out of
the section which is serialized by fi->state_mutex. This is not so much

protects, i.e. to the iso_state switch.

This removes the last usage of the Big Kernel Lock from the ieee1394
stack, i.e. from raw1394's (unlocked_)ioctl and compat_ioctl.
The ioctl()s don't need to take the BKL, but they need to be serialized
per struct file *. In particular, accesses to ->iso_state need to be
serial. We simply use a blocking mutex for this purpose because
libraw1394 does not use O_NONBLOCK. In practice, there is no lock
contention anyway because most if not all libraw1394 clients use a
libraw1394 handle only in a single thread.
mmap() also accesses ->iso_state. Until now this was unprotected
against concurrent changes by ioctls. Fix this bug while we are at it.

1. We don't need to round the SBP-2 segment size limit down to a
multiple of 4 kB (0xffff -> 0xf000). It is only necessary to
ensure quadlet alignment (0xffff -> 0xfffc).
2. Use dma_set_max_seg_size() to tell the DMA mapping infrastructure
and the block IO layer about the restriction. This way we can
remove the size checks and segment splitting in the queuecommand
path.
This assumes that no other code in the ieee1394 stack uses
dma_map_sg() with conflicting requirements. It furthermore assumes
that the controller device's platform actually allows us to set the
segment size to our liking. Assert the latter with a BUG_ON().
3. Also use blk_queue_max_segment_size() to tell the block IO layer
about it. It cannot know it because our scsi_add_host() does not
point to the FireWire controller's device.
We can also uniformly use dma_map_sg() for the single segment case just
like for the multi segment case, to further simplify the code.
Also clean up how the page table is converted to big endian.

sbp2 was too quick to report .update() to the ieee1394 core as failed.
(Logged as "Failed to reconnect to sbp2 device!".) The core would then
unbind sbp2 from the device.
This is not justified if the .update() failed because another bus reset
happened. We check this and tell the ieee1394 that .update() succeeded,
and the core will call sbp2's .update() for the new bus reset as well.
This improves reconnection/re-login especially on buses with several
disks as they may issue bus resets in close succession when they come
online.

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:
u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);
always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.
The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)
The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.
Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

As it seems, some host controllers have issues that can cause them to
skip cycles now and then when using large packets. I suspect that this
is due to DMA not succeeding in time. If the transmit fifo can't contain
more than one packet (big packets), the DMA should provide a new packet
each cycle (125us). I am under the impression that my current PCI
express test system can't guarantee this.
In any case, the patch tries to provide a workaround as follows:
The DMA program descriptors are modified such that when an error occurs,
the DMA engine retries the descriptor the next cycle instead of
stalling. This way no data is lost. The side effect of this is that
packets are sent with one cycle delay. This however might not be that
much of a problem for certain protocols (e.g. AM824). If they use
padding packets for e.g. rate matching they can drop one of those to
resync the streams.
The amount of skips between two userspace wakeups is counted. This
number is then propagated to userspace through the upper 16 bits of the
'dropped' parameter. This allows unmodified userspace applications due
to the following:
1) libraw simply passes this dropped parameter to the user application
2) the meaning of the dropped parameter is: if it's nonzero, something
bad has happened. The actual value of the parameter at this moment does
not have a specific meaning.
A libraw client can then retrieve the number of skipped cycles and
account for them if needed.

This patch speeds up sbp2 a little bit --- but more importantly, it
brings the behavior of sbp2 and fw-sbp2 closer to each other. Like
fw-sbp2, sbp2 now does not limit the size of single transfers to 255
sectors anymore, unless told so by a blacklist flag or by module load
parameters.
Only very old bridge chips have been known to need the 255 sectors
limit, and we have got one such chip in our hardwired blacklist. There
certainly is a danger that more bridges need that limit; but I prefer to
have this issue present in both fw-sbp2 and sbp2 rather than just one of
them.
An OXUF922 with 400GB 7200RPM disk on an S400 controller is sped up by

This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.
If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.
With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.
In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.
An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.
A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt
and I've put a copy online at
ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt

This patch relaxes the default SCSI DMA alignment from 512 bytes to 4
bytes. I remember from previous discussions that usb and firewire have
sector size alignment requirements, so I upped their alignments in the
respective slave allocs.
The reason for doing this is so that we don't get such a huge amount of
copy overhead in bio_copy_user() for udev. (basically all inquiries it
issues can now be directly mapped).

Most drivers need to set length and offset as well, so may as well fold
those three lines into one.
Add sg_assign_page() for those two locations that only needed to set
the page, where the offset/length is set outside of the function context.

converted many files to use the scatter gather helpers without ensuring
that the necessary headerfile <linux/scatterlist> is included. This
happened to work for ia64, powerpc, sparc64 and x86 because they
happened to drag in that file via their <asm/dma-mapping.h>.
On most of the others this probably broke.
Instead of increasing the header file spider web I choose to include
<linux/scatterlist.h> directly into the affectes files.

At least since nodemgr got rid of coarse global locking, accesses to
struct csr1212_keyval's reference counter should be atomic and coupled
with proper barriers. Also, calls to csr1212_keep_keyval(kv) should
occur before kv is being used.
(We probably should convert refcnt to struct kref, but how to keep
csr1212_destroy_keyval's implementation non-recursively then?)
Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
csr1212_keep_keyval(kv) in nodemgr_process_root_directory was
unbalanced if ne->vendor_name_kv already exists. This happens for
example if eth1394 or raw1394 modify the local config ROM and it is
parsed again.
As a bonus, the attempt to add the vendor_name_kv sysfs attribute
when it already exists is now fixed for good.

The nodemgr host thread can exit on its own even when kthread_should_stop
is not true, on receiving a signal (might never happen in practice, as
it ignores signals). But considering kthread_stop() must not be mixed with
kthreads that can exit on their own, I think changing the code like this
is clearer. This change means the thread can cut its sleep short when
receive a signal but looking at the code around, that sounds okay (and
again, it might never actually recieve a signal in practice).

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Initialization of ohci1394 was broken according to one reporter if the
driver was statically linked, i.e. not built as loadable module. Dmesg:
PCI: Device 0000:02:07.0 not available because of resource collisions
ohci1394: Failed to enable OHCI hardware.
This was reported for a Toshiba Satellite 5100-503. The cause is commit
8df4083c52 in Linux 2.6.19-rc1 which only
served purposes of early remote debugging via FireWire. This
functionality is better provided by the currently out-of-tree driver
ohci1394_earlyinit. Reversal of the commit was OK'd by Andi Kleen.

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.
