2006-12-02[PATCH] PHY: Add support for configuring the PHY connection interfaceAndy Fleming
Most PHYs connect to an ethernet controller over a GMII or MII interface. However, a growing number are connected over different interfaces, such as RGMII or SGMII. The ethernet driver will tell the PHY what type of connection it is by setting it manually, or passing it in through phy_connect (or phy_attach). Changes include: * Updates to documentation * Updates to PHY Lib consumers * Changes to PHY Lib to add interface support * Some minor changes to whitespace in phy.h * gianfar driver now detects interface and passes appropriate value to PHY Lib Signed-off-by: Andrew Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-12-01Driver core: platform_driver_probe(), can save codespaceDavid Brownell
This defines a new platform_driver_probe() method allowing the driver's probe() method, and its support code+data, to safely live in __init sections for typical system configurations. Many system-on-chip processors could benefit from this API, to the tune of recovering hundreds to thousands of bytes per driver. That's memory which is currently wasted holding code which can never be called after system startup, yet can not be removed. It can't be removed because of the linkage requirement that pointers to init section code (like, ideally, probe support) must not live in other sections (like driver method tables) after those pointers would be invalid.

2006-12-01Driver core: add notification of bus eventsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've had so far. That also means that clients interested in registering for such notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time, which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my notifiers. There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be unbound. The usage I have for these are: - The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers & iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own (like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier. - The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe, and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a timeout of course).

2006-12-01PCI: switch pci_{enable,disable}_device() to be nestableInaky Perez-Gonzalez
Changes the pci_{enable,disable}_device() functions to work in a nested basis, so that eg, three calls to enable_device() require three calls to disable_device(). The reason for this is to simplify PCI drivers for multi-interface/capability devices. These are devices that cram more than one interface in a single function. A relevant example of that is the Wireless [USB] Host Controller Interface (similar to EHCI) [see http://www.intel.com/technology/comms/wusb/whci.htm]. In these kind of devices, multiple interfaces are accessed through a single bar and IRQ line. For that, the drivers map only the smallest area of the bar to access their register banks and use shared IRQ handlers. However, because the order at which those drivers load cannot be known ahead of time, the sequence in which the calls to pci_enable_device() and pci_disable_device() cannot be predicted. Thus: 1. driverA starts pci_enable_device() 2. driverB starts pci_enable_device() 3. driverA shutdown pci_disable_device() 4. driverB shutdown pci_disable_device() between steps 3 and 4, driver B would loose access to it's device, even if it didn't intend to. By using this modification, the device won't be disabled until all the callers to enable() have called disable(). This is implemented by replacing 'struct pci_dev->is_enabled' from a bitfield to an atomic use count. Each caller to enable increments it, each caller to disable decrements it. When the count increments from 0 to 1, __pci_enable_device() is called to actually enable the device. When it drops to zero, pci_disable_device() actually does the disabling. We keep the backend __pci_enable_device() for pci_default_resume() to use and also change the sysfs method implementation, so that userspace enabling/disabling the device doesn't disable it one time too much.

2006-12-01USB: keep count of unsuspended childrenAlan Stern
This patch (as818b) simplifies autosuspend processing by keeping track of the number of unsuspended children of each USB hub. This will permit us to avoid a good deal of unnecessary work all the time; we will no longer have to create a bunch of workqueue entries to carry out autosuspend requests, only to have them fail because one of the hub's children isn't suspended. The basic idea is simple. There already is a usage counter in the usb_device structure for preventing autosuspends. The patch just increments that counter for every unsuspended child. There's only one tricky part: When a device disconnects we need to remember whether it was suspended at the time (leave the counter alone) or not (decrement the counter).

USB support is fully enabled (while most of the other drivers are not), and that kernel has most of the USB code ported to use the endpoint functions.

2006-12-01usb/hub: allow hubs up to 31 childreninaky@linux.intel.com
Current Wireless USB host hardware (Intel i1480 for example) allows up to 22 devices to connect, thus bringing up the max number of children in the WUSB Host Controller to 22 'fake' ports. Upcoming hardware might raise that limit. Makes almost no difference to go to 31, as the bit arrays are byte-aligned (plus an extra bit in general), so 22 bits fit in 4 bytes as 31 do. As well, the only other array that depends on USB_MAXCHILDREN is 'struct usb_hub->indicator'. By declaring it 'u8' instead of 'enum hub_led_mode', we reduce the size of each entry from 4 bytes (in i386) to 1, which will add as we when are doubling USB_MAXCHILDREN (with 16 the size of that array is 64 bytes, with 31 would be 128; by using u8 that goes down to 31 bytes).

2006-12-01mmc: Add support for mmc v4 wide-bus modesPhilip Langdale
This change adds support for the mmc4 4-bit wide-bus mode. The mmc4 spec defines 8-bit and 4-bit transfer modes. As we do not support any 8-bit hardware, this patch only adds support for the 4-bit mode, but it can easily be built upon when the time comes. The 4-bit mode is electrically compatible with SD's 4-bit mode but the procedure for turning it on is different. This patch implements only the essential parts of the procedure as defined by the spec. Two additional steps are recommended but not compulsory. I am documenting them here so that there's a record. 1) A bus-test mechanism is implemented using dedicated mmc commands which allow for testing the functionality of the data bus at the electrical level. This is pretty paranoid and they way the commands work is not compatible with the mmc subsystem (they don't set valid CRC values). 2) MMC v4 cards can indicate they would like to draw more than the default amount of current in wide-bus modes. We currently will never switch the card into a higher draw mode. Supposedly, allowing the card to draw more current will let it perform better, but the specs seem to indicate that the card will function correctly without the mode change. Empirical testing supports this interpretation. Signed-off-by: Philip Langdale <philipl@overt.org> Signed-off-by: Pierre Ossman <drzeus@drzeus.cx>

2006-11-30Fix jiffies.h commentChase Venters
jiffies.h includes a comment informing that jiffies_64 must be read with the assistance of the xtime_lock seqlock. The comment text, however, calls jiffies_64 "not volatile", which should probably read "not atomic".

2006-11-28[NET]: Fix MAX_HEADER setting.David S. Miller
MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests. It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are enabled which set hard_header_len like this: dev->hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx); The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are: ipip ip_gre ip6_tunnel sit so make the ifdef test match. Noticed by Patrick McHardy and with help from Herbert Xu. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-11-26Fix 'ALIGN()' macro, take 2Linus Torvalds
You wouldn't think that doing an ALIGN() macro that aligns something up to a power-of-two boundary would be likely to have bugs, would you? But hey, in the wonderful world of mixing integer types, you have to be careful. This just makes sure that the alignment is interpreted in the same type as the thing to be aligned. Thanks to Roland Dreier, who noticed that the amso1100 driver got broken by the previous fix (that just extended the mask to "unsigned long", but was still broken in "unsigned long long" - it just happened to be the same on 64-bit architectures). See commit 4c8bd7eeee4c8f157fb61fb64b57500990b42e0e for the history of bugs here...
