2010-03-03ioat3: interrupt coalescingDan Williams
The hardware automatically disables further interrupts after each event until rearmed. This allows a delay to be injected between the occurence of the interrupt and the running of the cleanup routine. The delay is scaled by the descriptor backlog and then written to the INTRDELAY register which specifies the number of microseconds to hold off interrupt delivery after an interrupt event occurs. According to powertop this reduces the interrupt rate from ~5000 intr/s to ~150 intr/s per without affecting throughput (simple dd to a raid6 array).

2009-12-19ioat2,3: put channel hardware in known state at initDan Williams
Put the ioat2 and ioat3 state machines in the halted state with all errors cleared. The ioat1 init path is not disturbed for stability, there are no reported ioat1 initiaization issues.

2009-11-19ioat2,3: disable asynchronous error notificationsDan Williams
Error interrupts and error completions may cause channel hangs, so poll the channel status register after a timeout. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2009-09-08ioat3: xor supportDan Williams
ioat3.2 adds xor offload support for up to 8 sources. It can also perform an xor-zero-sum operation to validate whether all given sources sum to zero, without writing to a destination. Xor descriptors differ from memcpy in that one operation may require multiple descriptors depending on the number of sources. When the number of sources exceeds 5 an extended descriptor is needed. These descriptors need to be accounted for when updating the DMA_COUNT register. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2009-09-08ioat3: enable dca for completion writesDan Williams
Tag completion writes for direct cache access to reduce the latency of checking for descriptor completions. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2009-09-08ioat3: hardware version 3.2 register / descriptor definitionsDan Williams
ioat3.2 adds raid5 and raid6 offload capabilities. Signed-off-by: Tom Picard <tom.s.picard@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2009-09-08ioat: switch watchdog and reset handler from workqueue to timerDan Williams
In order to support dynamic resizing of the descriptor ring or polling for a descriptor in the presence of a hung channel the reset handler needs to make progress while in a non-preemptible context. The current workqueue implementation precludes polling channel reset completion under spin_lock(). This conversion also allows us to return to opportunistic cleanup in the ioat2 case as the timer implementation guarantees at least one cleanup after every descriptor is submitted. This means the worst case completion latency becomes the timer frequency (for exceptional circumstances), but with the benefit of avoiding busy waiting when the lock is contended.

2009-09-08ioat: preserve chanctrl bits when re-arming interruptsDan Williams
The register write in ioat_dma_cleanup_tasklet is unfortunate in two ways: 1/ It clears the extra 'enable' bits that we set at alloc_chan_resources time 2/ It gives the impression that it disables interrupts when it is in fact re-arming interrupts [ Impact: fix, persist the value of the chanctrl register when re-arming ] Signed-off-by: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2009-09-08ioat: cleanup completion status readsDan Williams
The cleanup path makes an effort to only perform an atomic read of the 64-bit completion address. However in the 32-bit case it does not matter if we read the upper-32 and lower-32 non-atomically because the upper-32 will always be zero.

2009-07-28ioat: move to drivers/dma/ioat/Dan Williams
When first created the ioat driver was the only inhabitant of drivers/dma/. Now, it is the only multi-file (more than a .c and a .h) driver in the directory. Moving it to an ioat/ subdirectory allows the naming convention to be cleaned up, and allows for future splitting of the source files by hardware version (v1, v2, and v3).
