The struct sbp2_logical_unit.work items can all be executed in parallel
but are not reentrant. Furthermore, reconnect or re-login work must be
executed in a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue.Hence replace the old single-threaded firewire-sbp2 workqueue by a
concurrency-managed but non-reentrant workqueue with rescuer.
firewire-core already maintains one, hence use this one.In earlier versions of this change, I observed occasional failures of
parallel INQUIRY to an Initio INIC-2430 FireWire 800 to dual IDE bridge.
More testing indicates that parallel INQUIRY is not actually a problem,
but too quick successions of logout and login + INQUIRY, e.g. a quick
sequence of cable plugout and plugin, can result in failed INQUIRY.
This does not seem to be something that should or could be addressed by
serialization.Another dual-LU device to which I currently have access to, an
OXUF924DSB FireWire 800 to dual SATA bridge with firmware from MacPower,
has been successfully tested with this too.This change is beneficial to environments with two or more FireWire
storage devices, especially if they are located on the same bus.
Management tasks that should be performed as soon and as quickly as
possible, especially reconnect, are no longer held up by tasks on other
devices that may take a long time, especially login with INQUIRY and sd
or sr driver probe.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

firewire-core manages the following types of work items:
fw_card.br_work:
- resets the bus on a card and possibly sends a PHY packet before that
- does not sleep for long or not at all
- is scheduled via fw_schedule_bus_reset() by
- firewire-ohci's pci_probe method
- firewire-ohci's set_config_rom method, called by kernelspace
protocol drivers and userspace drivers which add/remove
Configuration ROM descriptors
- userspace drivers which use the bus reset ioctl
- itself if the last reset happened less than 2 seconds agofw_card.bm_work:
- performs bus management duties
- usually does not (but may in corner cases) sleep for long
- is scheduled via fw_schedule_bm_work() by
- firewire-ohci's self-ID-complete IRQ handler tasklet
- firewire-core's fw_device.work instances whenever the root node
device was (successfully or unsuccessfully) discovered,
refreshed, or rediscovered
- itself in case of resource allocation failures or in order to
obey the 125ms bus manager arbitration intervalfw_device.work:
- performs node probe, update, shutdown, revival, removal; including
kernel driver probe, update, shutdown and bus reset notification to
userspace drivers
- usually sleeps moderately long, in corner cases very long
- is scheduled by
- firewire-ohci's self-ID-complete IRQ handler tasklet via the
core's fw_node_event
- firewire-ohci's pci_remove method via core's fw_destroy_nodes/
fw_node_event
- itself during retries, e.g. while a node is powering upiso_resource.work:
- accesses registers at the Isochronous Resource Manager node
- usually does not (but may in corner cases) sleep for long
- is scheduled via schedule_iso_resource() by
- the owning userspace driver at addition and removal of the
resource
- firewire-core's fw_device.work instances after bus reset
- itself in case of resource allocation if necessary to obey the
1000ms reallocation period after bus resetfw_card.br_work instances should not, and instances of the others must
not, be executed in parallel by multiple CPUs -- but were not protected
against that. Hence allocate a non-reentrant workqueue for them.fw_device.work may be used in the memory reclaim path in case of SBP-2
device updates. Hence we need a workqueue with rescuer and cannot use
system_nrt_wq.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

When queueing iso packets, the run time is dominated by the two
MMIO accesses that set the DMA context's wake bit. Because most
drivers submit packets in batches, we can save much time by
removing all but the last wakeup.The internal kernel API is changed to require a call to
fw_iso_context_queue_flush() after a batch of queued packets.
The user space API does not change, so one call to
FW_CDEV_IOC_QUEUE_ISO must specify multiple packets to take
advantage of this optimization.In my measurements, this patch reduces the time needed to queue
fifty skip packets from userspace to one sixth on a 2.5 GHz CPU,
or to one third at 800 MHz.Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch

We do not need slab allocations anymore in order to satisfy
streaming DMA mapping constraints, thanks to commit da28947e7e36
"firewire: ohci: avoid separate DMA mapping for small AT payloads".(Besides, the slab-allocated buffers that firewire-core, firewire-sbp2,
and firedtv used to provide for 8-byte write and lock requests were
still not fully portable since they crossed cacheline boundaries or
shared a cacheline with unrelated CPU-accessed data. snd-firewire-lib
got this aspect right by using an extra kmalloc/ kfree just for the
8-byte transaction buffer.)This change replaces kmalloc'ed lock transaction scratch buffers in
firewire-core, firedtv, and snd-firewire-lib by local stack allocations.
Perhaps the most notable result of the change is simpler locking because
there is no need to serialize usages of preallocated per-device buffers
anymore. Also, allocations and deallocations are simpler.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

The SPLIT_TIMEOUT mechanism is intended to detect requests that somehow
got lost. However, when the timeout value is too low, transactions that
could have been completed successfully will be cancelled. Furthermore,
there are chips whose firmwares ignore the configured split timeout and
send late split response; known examples are the DM1x00 (BeBoB), TCD22x0
(DICE), and some OXUF936QSE firmwares.This patch changes the default timeout to two seconds, which happens to
be the default on other OSes, too.Actual lost requests are extremely rare, so there should be no practical
downside to increasing the split timeout even on devices that work
correctly.Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch

On a 32-bit machine with, e.g., HZ=1000, jiffies will overflow after
about 50 days, so if there are between 25 and 50 days between bus
resets, the card->reset_jiffies comparisons can get wrong results.To fix this, ensure that this timestamp always uses 64 bits.

Regression since commit 10389536742c, "firewire: core: check for 1394a
compliant IRM, fix inaccessibility of Sony camcorder":The camcorder Canon MV5i generates lots of bus resets when asynchronous
requests are sent to it (e.g. Config ROM read requests or FCP Command
write requests) if the camcorder is not root node. This causes drop-
outs in videos or makes the camcorder entirely inaccessible.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=633260Fix this by allowing any Canon device, even if it is a pre-1394a IRM
like MV5i are, to remain root node (if it is at least Cycle Master
capable). With the FireWire controller cards that I tested, MV5i always
becomes root node when plugged in and left to its own devices.Reported-by: Ralf Lange

Add an FW_CDEV_IOC_RECEIVE_PHY_PACKETS ioctl() and
FW_CDEV_EVENT_PHY_PACKET_RECEIVED poll()/read() event for /dev/fw*.
This can be used to get information from remote PHYs by remote access
PHY packets.This is also the 2nd half of the functionality (the receive part) to
support a userspace implementation of a VersaPHY transaction layer.Safety considerations:
- PHY packets are generally broadcasts, hence some kind of elevated
privileges should be required of a process to be able to listen in
on PHY packets. This implementation assumes that a process that is
allowed to open the /dev/fw* of a local node does have this
privilege.There was an inconclusive discussion about introducing POSIX
capabilities as a means to check for user privileges for these
kinds of operations.Other limitations:
- PHY packet reception may be switched on by ioctl() but cannot be
switched off again. It would be trivial to provide an off switch,
but this is not worth the code. The client should simply close()
the fd then, or just ignore further events.- For sake of simplicity of API and kernel-side implementation, no
filter per packet content is provided.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

core-transaction.c transmit_complete_callback() and close_transaction()
expect packet callback status to be an ACK or RCODE, and ACKs get
translated to RCODEs for transaction callbacks.An old comment on the packet callback API (been there from the initial
submission of the stack) and the dummy_driver implementation of
send_request/send_response deviated from this as they also included
-ERRNO in the range of status values.Let's narrow status values down to ACK and RCODE to prevent surprises.
RCODE_CANCELLED is chosen as the dummy_driver's RCODE as its meaning of
"transaction timed out" comes closest to what happens when a transaction
coincides with card removal.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

Bus resets which are triggered
- by the kernel drivers after updates of the local nodes' config ROM,
- by userspace software via ioctl
shall be deferred until after >=2 seconds after the last bus reset.If multiple modifications of the local nodes' config ROM happen in a row,
only a single bus reset should happen after them.When the local node's link goes from inactive to active or vice versa,
and at the two occasions of bus resets mentioned above --- and if the
current gap count differs from 63 --- the bus reset should be preceded
by a PHY configuration packet that reaffirms the gap count. Otherwise a
bus manager would have to reset the bus again right after that.This is necessary to promote bus stability, e.g. leave grace periods for
allocations and reallocations of isochronous channels and bandwidth,
SBP-2 reconnections etc.; see IEEE 1394 clause 8.2.1.This change implements all of the above by moving bus reset initiation
into a delayed work (except for bus resets which are triggered by the
bus manager workqueue job and are performed there immediately). It
comes with a necessary addition to the card driver methods that allows
to get the current gap count from PHY registers.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

In case of fw_card_bm_work()'s lock request, the present sizeof
expression is going to be wrong if somebody changes the fw_card's DMA
scratch buffer's size in the future.In case of quadlet write requests, sizeof(u32) is just silly; it's 4.
In case of SBP-2 ORB pointer write requests, 8 is arguably quicker to

sizeof(some_datum).Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

When the candidate bus manager fails to do the lock request with which
it tries to become bus manager, it assumes that the current IRM is not
actually IRM capable and forces itself to become root. However, if that
lock request failed because the local node itself was not able to send
it, then we cannot blame the current IRM and should not steal its
rootness.In this case, RCODE_SEND_ERROR is likely to indicate a temporary error
condition such as exhausted tlabels or low memory, so we better try
again later.Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch

Per IEEE 1394 clause 8.4.2.3, a contender for the IRM role shall check
whether the current IRM complies to 1394a-2000 or later. If not force a
compliant node (e.g. itself) to become IRM. This was implemented in the
older ieee1394 driver but not yet in firewire-core.An older Sony camcorder (Sony DCR-TRV25) which implements 1394-1995 IRM
but neither 1394a-2000 IRM nor BM was now found to cause an
interoperability bug:
- Camcorder becomes root node when plugged in, hence gets IRM role.
- firewire-core successfully contends for BM role, proceeds to perform
gap count optimization and resets the bus.
- Sony camcorder ignores presence of a BM (against the spec, this is
a firmware bug), performs its idea of gap count optimization and
resets the bus.
- Preceding two steps are repeated endlessly, bus never settles,
regular I/O is practically impossible.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.firewire.user/3913This is an interoperability regression from the old to the new drivers.
Fix it indirectly by adding the 1394a IRM check. The spec suggests
three and a half methods to determine 1394a compliance of a remote IRM;
we choose the method of testing the Config_ROM.Bus_Info.generation
field. This is data that firewire-core should have readily available at
this point, i.e. does not require extra I/O.Reported-by: Clemens Ladisch (missing 1394a check)

Presently, firewire-core only checks whether descriptors that are to be
added by userspace drivers to the local node's config ROM do not exceed
a size of 256 quadlets. However, the sum of the bare minimum ROM plus
all descriptors (from firewire-core, from firewire-net, from userspace)
must not exceed 256 quadlets.Otherwise, the bounds of a statically allocated buffer will be
overwritten. If the kernel survives that, firewire-core will
subsequently be unable to parse the local node's config ROM.(Note, userspace drivers can add descriptors only through device files
of local nodes. These are usually only accessible by root, unlike
device files of remote nodes which may be accessible to lesser
privileged users.)Therefore add a test which takes the actual present and required ROM
size into account for all descriptors of kernelspace and userspace
drivers.Cc: stable@kernel.org

The Topology Map of the local node was created in CPU byte order,
then a temporary big endian copy was created to compute the CRC,
and when a read request to the Topology Map arrived it had to be

Decouple the creation and destruction of the net_device from the order
