  • Pull more block fixes from Jens Axboe:
    "As mentioned in the pull the other day, a few more fixes for this
    round, all related to the bio op changes in this series.

    Two fixes, and then a cleanup, renaming bio->bi_rw to bio->bi_opf. I
    wanted to do that change right after or right before -rc1, so that
    risk of conflict was reduced. I just rebased the series on top of
    current master, and no new ->bi_rw usage has snuck in"

    * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
    block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

  • Pull drm zpos property support from Dave Airlie:
    "This tree was waiting on some media stuff I hadn't had time to get a
    stable branchpoint off, so I just waited until it was all in your tree
    first.

    It's been around a bit on the list and shouldn't affect anything
    outside adding the generic API and moving some ARM drivers to using
    it"

  • Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
    portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
    old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
    going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
    rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
    at compile time instead of at runtime.

    No intended functional changes in this commit.

  • Commit abf545484d31 changed it from an 'rw' flags type to the
    newer ops based interface, but now we're effectively leaking
    some bdev internals to the rest of the kernel. Since we only
    care about whether it's a read or a write at that level, just
    pass in a bool 'is_write' parameter instead.

    Then we can also move op_is_write() and friends back under
    CONFIG_BLOCK protection.

  • Instead of a ramoops-specific node, use a child node of /reserved-memory.
    This requires that of_platform_device_create() be explicitly called
    for the node, though, since "/reserved-memory" does not have its own

  • When the link goes down, the link_is_up flag did not return to
    false. This could have caused some subtle corner case bugs
    when the link goes up and down quickly.

    Once that was fixed, there was found to be a race if the link was
    brought down then immediately up. The link_cleanup work would
    occasionally be scheduled after the next link up event. This would
    cancel the link_work that was supposed to occur and leave ntb_perf
    in an unusable state.

    To fix this we get rid of the link_cleanup work and put the actions
    directly in the link_down event.

  • This commit adds a debugfs 'count' file to ntb_pingpong. This is so
    testing with ntb_pingpong can be automated beyond just checking the
    logs for pong messages.

    The count file returns a number which increments every pong. The
    counter can be cleared by writing a zero.

  • In order to more successfully script with ntb_tool it's useful to
    have a link file to check the link status so that the script
    doesn't use the other files until the link is up.

    This commit adds a 'link' file to the debugfs directory which reads
    boolean (Y or N) depending on the link status. Writing to the file
    change the link state using ntb_link_enable or ntb_link_disable.

    A 'link_event' file is also provided so an application can block until
    the link changes to the desired state. If the user writes a 1, it will
    block until the link is up. If the user writes a 0, it will block until
    the link is down.

  • In order to make the interface closer to the raw NTB API, this commit
    changes memory windows so they are not initialized on link up.
    Instead, the 'peer_trans*' debugfs files are introduced. When read,
    they return information provided by ntb_mw_get_range. When written,
    they create a buffer and initialize the memory window. The
    value written is taken as the requested size of the buffer (which
    is then rounded for alignment). Writing a value of zero frees the buffer
    and tears down the memory window translation. The 'peer_mw*' file is
    only created once the memory window translation is setup by the user.

    Additionally, it was noticed that the read and write functions for the
    'peer_mw*' files should have checked for a NULL pointer.

  • Instead of returning immediately with an error when the link is
    down, wait for the link to come up (or the user sends a SIGINT).

    This is to make scripting ntb_perf easier.

  • Instead of having to watch logs, allow the results to be retrieved
    by reading back the run file. This file will return "running" when
    the test is running and nothing if no tests have been run yet.
    It returns 1 line per thread, and will display an error message if the
    corresponding thread returns an error.

    With the above change, the pr_info calls that returned the results are
    then changed to pr_debug calls.

  • This commit accomplishes a few things:

    1) Properly prevent multiple sets of threads from running at once using
    a mutex. Lots of race issues existed with the thread_cleanup.

    2) The mutex allows us to ensure that threads are finished before
    tearing down the device or module.

    3) Don't use kthread_stop when the threads can exit by themselves, as
    this is counter-indicated by the kthread_create documentation. Threads
    now wait for kthread_stop to occur.

    4) Writing to the run file now blocks until the threads are complete.
    The test can then be safely interrupted by a SIGINT.

    Also, while I was at it:

    5) debugfs_run_write shouldn't return 0 in the early check cases as this
    could cause debugfs_run_write to loop undesirably.

  • When debugging performance problems, if some issue causes the ntb
    hardware to be significantly slower than expected, ntb_perf will
    hang requiring a reboot because it only schedules once every 4GB.

    Instead, schedule based on jiffies so it will not hang the CPU if
    the transfer is slow.

  • I'm working on hardware that currently has a limited number of
    scratchpad registers and ntb_ndev fails with no clue as to why. I
    feel it is better to fail early and provide a reasonable error message
    then to fail later on.

    The same is done to ntb_perf, but it doesn't currently require enough
    spads to actually fail. I've also removed the unused SPAD_MSG and
    SPAD_ACK enums so that MAX_SPAD accurately reflects the number of
    spads used.

  • We allocate some memory window buffers when the link comes up, then we
    provide debugfs files to read/write each side of the link.

    This is useful for debugging the mapping when writing new drivers.

  • On my system, dma_alloc_coherent won't produce memory anywhere
    near the size of the BAR. So I needed a way to limit this.

    It's pretty much copied straight from ntb_transport.

  • Currently we only allocate a fixed default number of descriptors for the tx
    and rx side. We should dynamically resize it to the number of descriptors
    resides in the transport rings. We should know the number of transmit
    descriptors at initializaiton. We will allocate the default number of
    descriptors for receive side and allocate additional ones when we know the
    actual max entries for receive.

  • On hardware with 32 scratchpad registers the spad field in ntb tool
    could chop off the end. The maximum buffer size is increased from
    256 to 15 times the number or scratchpads.

  • If you tried to write two spads in one line, as per the example:

    root@peer# echo '0 0x01010101 1 0x7f7f7f7f' > $DBG_DIR/peer_spad

    then the CPU would freeze in an infinite loop.

    This wasn't immediately obvious but 'pos' was not incrementing the
    buffer, so after reading the second pair of values, 'pos' would once
    again be 3 and it would re-read the second pair of values ad infinitum.
