  • * 'drm-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6: (133 commits)
    drm/vgaarb: add VGA arbitration support to the drm and kms.
    drm/radeon: some r420s have a CP race with the DMA engine.
    drm/radeon/r600/kms: rv670 is not DCE3
    drm/radeon/kms: r420 idle after programming GA_ENHANCE
    drm/radeon/kms: more fixes to rv770 suspend/resume path.
    drm/radeon/kms: more alignment for rv770.c with r600.c
    drm/radeon/kms: rv770 blit init called too late.
    drm/radeon/kms: move around new init path code to avoid posting at init
    drm/radeon/r600: fix some issues with suspend/resume.
    drm/radeon/kms: disable VGA rendering engine before taking over VRAM
    drm/radeon/kms: Move radeon_get_clock_info() call out of radeon_clocks_init().
    drm/radeon/kms: add initial connector properties
    drm/radeon/kms: Use surfaces for scanout / cursor byte swapping on big endian.
    drm/radeon/kms: don't fail if we fail to init GPU acceleration
    drm/r600/kms: fixup number of loops per blit calculation.
    drm/radeon/kms: reprogram format in set base.
    drm/radeon: avivo chips have no separate int bit for display
    drm/radeon/r600: don't do interrupts
    drm: fix _DRM_GEM addmap error message
    drm: update crtc x/y when only fb changes
    ...

    Fixed up trivial conflicts in firmware/Makefile due to network driver
    (cxgb3) and drm (mga/r128/radeon) firmware being listed next to each
    other.

  • Loosely based on a patch by
    Jaswinder Singh Rajput .

    KMS support by Dave Airlie .

    For Radeon 100- to 500-series, firmware blobs look like:
    struct {
    __be32 datah;
    __be32 datal;
    } cp_ucode[256];

    For Radeon 600-series, there are two separate firmware blobs:
    __be32 me_ucode[PM4_UCODE_SIZE * 3];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

    For Radeon 700-series, likewise:
    __be32 me_ucode[R700_PM4_UCODE_SIZE];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[R700_PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

  • The new FW improves the packets per second rate. It required a lot of change in
    the FW which implies many changes in the driver to support it. It is now also
    possible for the driver to use a separate MSI-X vector for Rx and Tx - this also
    add some to the complicity of this change.

    All things said - after this patch, practically all performance matrixes show
    improvement.
    Though Vladislav Zolotarov is not signed on this patch, he did most of the job
    and deserves credit for that.

  • >From now on FW will be downloaded from the binary file using request_firmware.

    There will be different files for every supported chip. Currently 57710 (e1) and
    57711 (e1h).

    File names have the following format: bnx2x--.fw.
    ihex versions of current FW files are submitted in the next patch.

    Each binary file has a header in the following format:

    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section {
    __be32 len;
    __be32 offset;
    }

    struct bnx2x_fw_file_hdr {
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section init_ops;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section init_ops_offsets;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section init_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section tsem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section tsem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section usem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section usem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section csem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section csem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section xsem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section xsem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section fw_version;
    }

    Each bnx2x_fw_file_section contains the length and the offset of the appropriate
    section in the binary file. Values are stored in the big endian format.

    Data types of arrays:

    init_data __be32
    init_ops_offsets __be16
    XXsem_pram_data u8
    XXsem_int_table_data u8
    init_ops struct raw_op {
    u8 op;
    __be24 offset;
    __be32 data;
    }
    fw_version u8

    >From now boundaries of a specific initialization stage are stored in
    init_ops_offsets array instead of being defined by separate macroes. The index
    in init_ops_offsets is calculated by BLOCK_OPS_IDX macro:

    #define BLOCK_OPS_IDX(block, stage, end) \
    (2*(((block)*STAGE_IDX_MAX) + (stage)) + (end))

    Security:

    In addition to sanity check of array boundaries bnx2x will check a FW version.
    Additional checks might be added in the future.

  • These are available elsewhere (for example in the linux-firmware.git
    repository); they have no business being added to the kernel source
    tree.

    We are only putting stuff in the firmware/ directory of the kernel
    source when it's extracted from long-standing drivers which used to
    include it directly.

    We didn't intend to open the floodgates to including megabytes of new
    firmware which was previously being distributed separately.

  • Based on original patch by Ben Hutchings and
    Bastian Blank , with the following main changes:

    Separated the mips firmware and rv2p firmware into different files
    to make it easier to update them separately.

    Added some code to fixup the rv2p code with run-time information
    such as PAGE_SIZE.

    Update version to 2.0.0.
