Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

+  
+  Theory of Operation
+  
+  I Hardware, detection, initialisation and shutdown.
+  
+  1. Supported Hardware
+  
+  This driver is for the PCI ATMizer-based Ambassador card (except
+  very early versions). It is not suitable for the similar EISA "TR7"
+  card. Commercially, both cards are known as Collage Server ATM
+  adapters.
+  
+  The loader supports image transfer to the card, image start and few
+  other miscellaneous commands.
+  
+  Only AAL5 is supported with vpi = 0 and vci in the range 0 to 1023.
+  
+  The cards are big-endian.
+  
+  2. Detection
+  
+  Standard PCI stuff, the early cards are detected and rejected.
+  
+  3. Initialisation
+  
+  The cards are reset and the self-test results are checked. The
+  microcode image is then transferred and started. This waits for a
+  pointer to a descriptor containing details of the host-based queues
+  and buffers and various parameters etc. Once they are processed
+  normal operations may begin. The BIA is read using a microcode
+  command.
+  
+  4. Shutdown
+  
+  This may be accomplished either by a card reset or via the microcode
+  shutdown command. Further investigation required.
+  
+  5. Persistent state
+  
+  The card reset does not affect PCI configuration (good) or the
+  contents of several other "shared run-time registers" (bad) which
+  include doorbell and interrupt control as well as EEPROM and PCI
+  control. The driver must be careful when modifying these registers
+  not to touch bits it does not use and to undo any changes at exit.
+  
+  II Driver software
+  
+  0. Generalities
+  
+  The adapter is quite intelligent (fast) and has a simple interface
+  (few features). VPI is always zero, 1024 VCIs are supported. There
+  is limited cell rate support. UBR channels can be capped and ABR
+  (explicit rate, but not EFCI) is supported. There is no CBR or VBR
+  support.
+  
+  1. Driver <-> Adapter Communication
+  
+  Apart from the basic loader commands, the driver communicates
+  through three entities: the command queue (CQ), the transmit queue
+  pair (TXQ) and the receive queue pairs (RXQ). These three entities
+  are set up by the host and passed to the microcode just after it has
+  been started.
+  
+  All queues are host-based circular queues. They are contiguous and
+  (due to hardware limitations) have some restrictions as to their
+  locations in (bus) memory. They are of the "full means the same as
+  empty so don't do that" variety since the adapter uses pointers
+  internally.
+  
+  The queue pairs work as follows: one queue is for supply to the
+  adapter, items in it are pending and are owned by the adapter; the
+  other is the queue for return from the adapter, items in it have
+  been dealt with by the adapter. The host adds items to the supply
+  (TX descriptors and free RX buffer descriptors) and removes items
+  from the return (TX and RX completions). The adapter deals with out
+  of order completions.
+  
+  Interrupts (card to host) and the doorbell (host to card) are used
+  for signalling.
+  
+  1. CQ
+  
+  This is to communicate "open VC", "close VC", "get stats" etc. to
+  the adapter. At most one command is retired every millisecond by the
+  card. There is no out of order completion or notification. The
+  driver needs to check the return code of the command, waiting as
+  appropriate.
+  
+  2. TXQ
+  
+  TX supply items are of variable length (scatter gather support) and
+  so the queue items are (more or less) pointers to the real thing.
+  Each TX supply item contains a unique, host-supplied handle (the skb
+  bus address seems most sensible as this works for Alphas as well,
+  there is no need to do any endian conversions on the handles).
+  
+  TX return items consist of just the handles above.
+  
+  3. RXQ (up to 4 of these with different lengths and buffer sizes)
+  
+  RX supply items consist of a unique, host-supplied handle (the skb
+  bus address again) and a pointer to the buffer data area.
+  
+  RX return items consist of the handle above, the VC, length and a
+  status word. This just screams "oh so easy" doesn't it?
+
+  Note on RX pool sizes:
+   
+  Each pool should have enough buffers to handle a back-to-back stream
+  of minimum sized frames on a single VC. For example:
+  
+    frame spacing = 3us (about right)
+    
+    delay = IRQ lat + RX handling + RX buffer replenish = 20 (us)  (a guess)
+    
+    min number of buffers for one VC = 1 + delay/spacing (buffers)
+
+    delay/spacing = latency = (20+2)/3 = 7 (buffers)  (rounding up)
+    
+  The 20us delay assumes that there is no need to sleep; if we need to
+  sleep to get buffers we are going to drop frames anyway.
+  
+  In fact, each pool should have enough buffers to support the
+  simultaneous reassembly of a separate frame on each VC and cope with
+  the case in which frames complete in round robin cell fashion on
+  each VC.
+  
+  Only one frame can complete at each cell arrival, so if "n" VCs are
+  open, the worst case is to have them all complete frames together
+  followed by all starting new frames together.
+  
+    desired number of buffers = n + delay/spacing
+    
+  These are the extreme requirements, however, they are "n+k" for some
+  "k" so we have only the constant to choose. This is the argument
+  rx_lats which current defaults to 7.
+  
+  Actually, "n ? n+k : 0" is better and this is what is implemented,
+  subject to the limit given by the pool size.
+  
+  4. Driver locking
+  
+  Simple spinlocks are used around the TX and RX queue mechanisms.
+  Anyone with a faster, working method is welcome to implement it.
+  
+  The adapter command queue is protected with a spinlock. We always
+  wait for commands to complete.
+  
+  A more complex form of locking is used around parts of the VC open
+  and close functions. There are three reasons for a lock: 1. we need
+  to do atomic rate reservation and release (not used yet), 2. Opening
+  sometimes involves two adapter commands which must not be separated
+  by another command on the same VC, 3. the changes to RX pool size
+  must be atomic. The lock needs to work over context switches, so we
+  use a semaphore.
+  
+  III Hardware Features and Microcode Bugs
+  
+  1. Byte Ordering
+  
+  *%^"$&%^$*&^"$(%^$#&^%$(&#%$*(&^#%!"!"!*!
+  
+  2. Memory access
+  
+  All structures that are not accessed using DMA must be 4-byte
+  aligned (not a problem) and must not cross 4MB boundaries.
+  
+  There is a DMA memory hole at E0000000-E00000FF (groan).
+  
+  TX fragments (DMA read) must not cross 4MB boundaries (would be 16MB
+  but for a hardware bug).
+  
+  RX buffers (DMA write) must not cross 16MB boundaries and must
+  include spare trailing bytes up to the next 4-byte boundary; they
+  will be written with rubbish.
+  
+  The PLX likes to prefetch; if reading up to 4 u32 past the end of
+  each TX fragment is not a problem, then TX can be made to go a
+  little faster by passing a flag at init that disables a prefetch
+  workaround. We do not pass this flag. (new microcode only)
+  
+  Now we:
+  . Note that alloc_skb rounds up size to a 16byte boundary.  
+  . Ensure all areas do not traverse 4MB boundaries.
+  . Ensure all areas do not start at a E00000xx bus address.
+  (I cannot be certain, but this may always hold with Linux)
+  . Make all failures cause a loud message.
+  . Discard non-conforming SKBs (causes TX failure or RX fill delay).
+  . Discard non-conforming TX fragment descriptors (the TX fails).
+  In the future we could:
+  . Allow RX areas that traverse 4MB (but not 16MB) boundaries.
+  . Segment TX areas into some/more fragments, when necessary.
+  . Relax checks for non-DMA items (ignore hole).
+  . Give scatter-gather (iovec) requirements using ???. (?)
+  
+  3. VC close is broken (only for new microcode)
+  
+  The VC close adapter microcode command fails to do anything if any
+  frames have been received on the VC but none have been transmitted.
+  Frames continue to be reassembled and passed (with IRQ) to the
+  driver.
+  
+  IV To Do List
+  
+  . Fix bugs!
+  
+  . Timer code may be broken.
+  
+  . Deal with buggy VC close (somehow) in microcode 12.
+  
+  . Handle interrupted and/or non-blocking writes - is this a job for
+    the protocol layer?
+  
+  . Add code to break up TX fragments when they span 4MB boundaries.
+  
+  . Add SUNI phy layer (need to know where SUNI lives on card).
+  
+  . Implement a tx_alloc fn to (a) satisfy TX alignment etc. and (b)
+    leave extra headroom space for Ambassador TX descriptors.
+  
+  . Understand these elements of struct atm_vcc: recvq (proto?),
+    sleep, callback, listenq, backlog_quota, reply and user_back.
+  
+  . Adjust TX/RX skb allocation to favour IP with LANE/CLIP (configurable).
+  
+  . Impose a TX-pending limit (2?) on each VC, help avoid TX q overflow.
+  
+  . Decide whether RX buffer recycling is or can be made completely safe;
+    turn it back on. It looks like Werner is going to axe this.
+  
+  . Implement QoS changes on open VCs (involves extracting parts of VC open
+    and close into separate functions and using them to make changes).
+  
+  . Hack on command queue so that someone can issue multiple commands and wait
+    on the last one (OR only "no-op" or "wait" commands are waited for).
+  
+  . Eliminate need for while-schedule around do_command.
