firewire: cdev: add PHY packet transmission
Add an FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_PHY_PACKET ioctl() for /dev/fw* which can be
used to implement bus management related functionality in userspace.
This is also half of the functionality (the transmit part) that is
needed to support a userspace implementation of a VersaPHY transaction
layer.
Safety considerations:
- PHY packets are generally broadcasts and may have interesting
effects on PHYs and the bus, e.g. make asynchronous arbitration
impossible due to too low gap count. Hence some kind of elevated
privileges should be required of a process to be able to send
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.
- The kernel does not check integrity of the supplied packet data.
That would be far too much code, considering the many kinds of
PHY packets. A process which got the privilege to send these
packets is trusted to do it correctly.
Just like with the other "send packet" ioctls, a non-blocking API is
chosen; i.e. the ioctl may return even before AT DMA started. After
transmission, an event for poll()/read() is enqueued. Most users are
going to need a blocking API, but a blocking userspace wrapper is easy
to implement, and the second of the two existing libraw1394 calls
raw1394_phy_packet_write() and raw1394_start_phy_packet_write() can be
better supported that way.

firewire: core: integrate software-forced bus resets with bus management
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

comes with a necessary addition to the card driver methods that allows
to get the current gap count from PHY registers.

firewire: cdev: fix ABI for FCP and address range mapping, add fw_cdev_event_request2
The problem:
A target-like userspace driver, e.g. AV/C target or SBP-2/3 target,
needs to be able to act as responder and requester. In the latter role,
it needs to send requests to nods from which it received requests. This
is currently impossible because fw_cdev_event_request lacks information
about sender node ID. Reported-by: Jay Fenlason <fenlason@redhat.com>
Libffado + libraw1394 + firewire-core is currently unable to drive two
or more audio devices on the same bus. Reported-by: Arnold Krille <arnold@arnoldarts.de>
This is because libffado requires destination node ID of FCP requests
and sender node ID of FCP responses to match. It even prohibits
libffado from working with a bus on which libraw1394 opens a /dev/fw* as
default ioctl device that does not correspond with the audio device.
This is because libraw1394 does not receive the sender node ID from the
kernel.
Moreover, fw_cdev_event_request makes it impossible to tell unicast and
broadcast write requests apart.
The fix:
Add a replacement of struct fw_cdev_event_request request, boringly
called struct fw_cdev_event_request2. The new event will be sent to a
userspace client instead of the old one if the client claims
compatibility with <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI version 4 or later.
libraw1394 needs to be extended to make use of the new event, in order
to properly support libffado and other FCP or address range mapping
users who require correct sender node IDs.
Further notes:
While we are at it, change back the range of possible values of
fw_cdev_event_request.tcode to 0x0...0xb like in ABI version <= 3.
The preceding change "firewire: expose extended tcode of incoming lock
requests to (userspace) drivers" expanded it to 0x0...0x17 which could
catch sloppily coded clients by surprise. The extended range of codes
is only used in the new fw_cdev_event_request2.tcode.
Jay and I also suggested an alternative approach to fix the ABI for
incoming requests: Add an FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_REQUEST_INFO ioctl which can
be called after reception of an fw_cdev_event_request, before issuing of
the closing FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_RESPONSE ioctl. The new ioctl would reveal
the vital information about a request that fw_cdev_event_request lacks.
Jay showed an implementation of this approach.
The former event approach adds 27 LOC of rather trivial code to
core-cdev.c, the ioctl approach 34 LOC, some of which is nontrivial.
The ioctl approach would certainly also add more LOC to userspace
programs which require the expanded information on inbound requests.
This approach is probably only on the lighter-weight side in case of
clients that want to be compatible with kernels that lack the new
capability, like libraw1394. However, the code to be added to such
libraw1394-like clients in case of the event approach is a straight-
forward additional switch () case in its event handler.

firewire: cdev: count references of cards during inbound transactions
If a request comes in to an address range managed by a userspace driver
i.e. <linux/firewire-cdev.h> client, the card instance of request and
response may differ from the card instance of the client device.
Therefore we need to take a reference of the card until the response was
sent.
I thought about putting the reference counting into core-transaction.c,
but the various high-level drivers besides cdev clients (firewire-net,
firewire-sbp2, firedtv) use the card pointer in their fw_address_handler
address_callback method only to look up devices of which they already
hold the necessary references. So this seems to be a specific
firewire-cdev issue which is better addressed locally.
We do not need the reference
- in case of FCP_REQUEST or FCP_RESPONSE requests because then the
firewire-core will send the split transaction response for us
already in the context of the request handler,
- if it is the same card as the client device's because we hold a
card reference indirectly via teh client->device reference.
To keep things simple, we take the reference nevertheless.

While termination of inbound transcations at card removal could be
implemented, it is IMO not worth the effort. Currently, the effect of
holding a reference of a card that has been removed is to block the
process that called the pci_remove of the card. This is
- either a user process ran by root. Root can find and kill processes
that have /dev/fw* open, if desired.
- a kernel thread (which one?) in case of hot removal of a PCCard or
ExpressCard.
The latter case could be a problem indeed. firewire-core's card
shutdown and card release should probably be improved not to block in
shutdown, just to defer freeing of memory until release.
This is not a new problem though; the same already always happens with
the client->device->card without the need of inbound transactions or
other special conditions involved, other than the client not closing the
file.

firewire: cdev: fix responses to nodes at different card
My box has two firewire cards in it: card0 and card1.
My application opens /dev/fw0 (card 0) and allocates an address space.
The core makes the address space available on both cards.
Along comes the remote device, which sends a READ_QUADLET_REQUEST to
card1. The request gets passed up to my application, which calls
ioctl_send_response().
ioctl_send_response() then calls fw_send_response() with card0,
because that's the card it's bound to.
Card0's driver drops the response, because it isn't part of
a transaction that it has outstanding.
So in core-cdev: handle_request(), we need to stash the
card of the inbound request in the struct inbound_transaction_resource and
use that card to send the response to.
The hard part will be refcounting the card correctly
so it can't get deallocated while we hold a pointer to it.
Here's a trivial patch, which does not do the card refcounting, but at
least demonstrates what the problem is.
Note that we can't depend on the fact that the core-cdev:client
structure holds a card open, because in this case the card it holds
open is not the card the request came in on.
..and there's no way for the core to tell cdev "this card is gone,
kill any inbound transactions on it", while cdev holds the transaction
open until userspace issues a SEND_RESPONSE ioctl, which may be a very,
very long time. But when it does, it calls fw_send_response(), which
will dereference the card...

This patch adds support for message-signaled interrupts.
Any native PCI-Express OHCI controller should support MSI, but most are
just PCI cores behind a PCI-E/PCI bridge. The only chips that are known
to claim to support MSI are the Lucent/Agere/LSI FW643 and the VIA
VT6315, none of which I have been able to test.
Due to the high level of trust I have in the competence of these and any
future chip makers, I thought it a good idea to add a disable-MSI quirk.

We now search first the root directory, then the unit directory. IOW

root directory's model ID (if present).
Furthermore, apply the same change to Vendor_ID. This had the same
issue but it was less apparent because most devices provide Vendor_ID
only in the root directory.
And finally, also use this strategy for the remaining two IDs in the
modalias, Specifier_ID and Version. It does not actually make sense to
look for them elsewhere than in the unit directory because they are
mandatory there. However, a uniform search order simplifies the
implementation and has no adverse affect in practice.
Side notes:
- The older counterpart of this, nodemgr.c of ieee1394, looked for
Vendor_ID first in the root directory, then in the unit directory,
and for Model_ID only in the unit directory.
- There is a single mainline driver which requires Vendor_ID and
Model_ID --- the firedtv driver. This one worked because FireDTVs
provide Vendor_ID in the root directory and Model_ID identically in
root directory and unit directory.
- Apart from firedtv, there are currently no drivers known to me
