Pull firewire updates from Stefan Richter: - Small fixes and optimizations. - A new sysfs attribute to tell local and remote nodes apart. Useful to set special permissions/ ownership of local nodes' /dev/fw*, to start daemons on them (for diagnostics, management, AV targets, VersaPHY initiator or targets...), to pick up their GUID to use it as GUID of an SBP2 target instance, and of course for informational purposes. * tag 'firewire-updates' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394: firewire: core: document is_local sysfs attribute firewire: core: add is_local sysfs device attribute firewire: ohci: initialize multiChanMode bits after reset firewire: core: fix multichannel IR with buffers larger than 2 GB firewire: ohci: sanity-check MMIO resource firewire: ohci: lazy bus time initialization firewire: core: allocate the low memory region firewire: core: make address handler length 64 bits

firewire: core: add is_local sysfs device attribute

2012-06-30T08:49:06Z

Making this information available in sysfs allows to differentiate between controllers in the local and remote Linux PCs, and thus is useful for servers that are started with udev rules. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

firewire: ohci: initialize multiChanMode bits after reset

2012-06-17T17:35:26Z

OHCI 1.1 says: | Since the value of this bit is undefined after reset in all IR | contexts, software shall initialize this bit to zero in all contexts | whether or not active to maintain the exclusive nature of this bit. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

firewire: ohci: sanity-check MMIO resource

2012-06-04T22:57:37Z

pci_request_region() does not fail on resources that have not been allocated by the BIOS or by the kernel, so to avoid accessing registers that are not there, we have to check for this explicitly. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

firewire: ohci: lazy bus time initialization

2012-05-27T10:31:11Z

The Bus_Time CSR is virtually never used, so we can avoid burning CPU in interrupt context for 1 or 3 IsochronousCycleTimer accesses every minute by not tracking the bus time until the CSR is actually accessed for the first time. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

firewire: core: allocate the low memory region

2012-05-27T10:31:11Z

Prevent userspace applications from allocating low memory address ranges. Otherwise, if some application happens to allocate such a range and intends for a remote node to access it, and if that node also implements SBP-2 (which will become more likely with the upcoming SBP-2 target support), these accesses would be routed by the physical DMA unit to some wrong memory address.

Pull IEEE 1394 (FireWire) subsystem updates from Stefan Richter: - Fix mismatch between DMA mapping direction (was wrong) and DMA synchronization direction (was correct) of isochronous reception buffers of userspace drivers if vma-mapped for R/W access. For example, libdc1394 was affected. - more consistent retry stategy in device discovery/ rediscovery, and improved failure diagnostics - various small cleanups, e.g. use SCSI layer's DMA mapping API in firewire-sbp2 * tag 'firewire-updates' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394: firewire: sbp2: document the absence of alignment requirements firewire: sbp2: remove superfluous blk_queue_max_segment_size() call firewire: sbp2: use scsi_dma_(un)map firewire: sbp2: give correct DMA device to scsi framework firewire: core: fw_device_refresh(): clean up error handling firewire: core: log config rom reading errors firewire: core: log error in case of failed bus manager lock firewire: move rcode_string() to core firewire: core: improve reread_config_rom() interface firewire: core: wait for inaccessible devices after bus reset firewire: ohci: omit spinlock IRQ flags where possible firewire: ohci: correct signedness of a local variable firewire: core: fix DMA mapping direction firewire: use module_pci_driver

firewire: sbp2: document the absence of alignment requirements

2012-05-21T19:49:44Z

The SBP-2/3 specifications do not require any alignment of data buffers; only their own data structures need to be quadlet-aligned [SR: or octlet-aligned]. Fix the comments to reflect this, but leave the actual alignment at 32 bits to avoid theoretical problems with target implementations that might handle this incorrectly.
