* | wimax/i2400m: introduce i2400m_reset(), stopping TX and carrierInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-11-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the i2400m driver was resetting by just calling i2400m->bus_reset(). However, this was missing stopping the TX queue and downing the carrier. This was causing, for the corner case of the driver reseting a device that refuses to go out of idle mode, that a few packets would be queued and more than one reset would go through, making the recovery a wee bit messy. To avoid introducing the same cleanup in all the bus-specific driver, introduced a i2400m_reset() function that takes care of house cleaning and then calling the bus-level reset implementation. The bulk of the changes in all files are just to rename the call from i2400m->bus_reset() to i2400m_reset(). Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>
* | wimax/i2400m: queue device's report until the driver is ready for themInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-10-191-29/+113
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The i2400m might start sending reports to the driver before it is done setting up all the infrastructure needed for handling them. Currently we were just dropping them when the driver wasn't ready and that is bad in certain situations, as the sync between the driver's idea of the device's state and the device's state dissapears. This changes that by implementing a queue for handling reports. Incoming reports are appended to it and a workstruct is woken to process the list of queued reports. When the device is not yet ready to handle them, the workstruct is not woken, but at soon as the device becomes ready again, the queue is processed. As a consequence of this, i2400m_queue_work() is no longer used, and thus removed. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>
* | wimax/i2400m: clarify and fix i2400m->{ready,updown}Inaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-10-191-9/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The i2400m driver uses two different bits to distinguish how much the driver is up. i2400m->ready is used to denote that the infrastructure to communicate with the device is up and running. i2400m->updown is used to indicate if 'ready' and the device is up and running, ready to take control and data traffic. However, all this was pretty dirty and not clear, with many open spots where race conditions were present. This commit cleans up the situation by: - documenting the usage of both bits - setting them only in specific, well controlled places (i2400m_dev_start, i2400m_dev_stop) - ensuring the i2400m workqueue can't get in the middle of the setting by flushing it when i2400m->ready is set to zero. This allows the report hook not having to check again for the bit to be set [rx.c:i2400m_report_hook_work()]. - using i2400m->updown to determine if the device is up and running instead of the wimax state in i2400m_dev_reset_handle(). - not loosing missed messages sent by the hardware before i2400m->ready is set. In rx.c, whatever the device sends can be sent to user space over the message pipes as soon as the wimax device is registered, so don't wait for i2400m->ready to be set.

* | wimax/i2400m: rework bootrom initialization to be more flexibleInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-10-191-0/+22
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This modifies the bootrom initialization code of the i2400m driver so it can more easily support upcoming hardware. Currently, the code detects two types of barkers (magic numbers) sent by the device to indicate the types of firmware it would take (signed vs non-signed). This schema is extended so that multiple reboot barkers are recognized; upcoming hw will expose more types barkers which will have to match a header in the firmware image before we can load it. For that, a barker database is introduced; the first time the device sends a barker, it is matched in the database. That gives the driver the information needed to decide how to upload the firmware and which types of firmware to use. The database can be populated from module parameters. The execution flow is not altered; a new function (i2400m_is_boot_barker) is introduced to determine in the RX path if the device has sent a boot barker. This function is becoming heavier, so it is put away from the hot reception path [this is why there is some reorganization in sdio-rx.c:i2400ms_rx and usb-notifc.c:i2400mu_notification_grok()]. The documentation on the process has also been updated. All these modifications are heavily based on previous work by Dirk Brandewie <dirk.brandewie@intel.com>.

* wimax/i2400m: remove redundant readiness checks from i2400m_report_tlv_*()Inaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-05-281-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Functions i2400m_report_tlv*() are only called from i2400m_report_hook(), called in a workqueue by i2400m_report_hook_work(). The scheduler checks for device readiness before scheduling. Added an extra check for readiness in i2400m_report_hook_work(), which makes all the checks down the line redundant. Obviously the device state could change in the middle, but error handling would take care of that. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>
* wimax/i2400m: trace commands sent from user space on the "echo" pipeInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-05-281-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When commands are sent from user space, trace both the command sent and the answer received over the "echo" pipe instead of over the "trace" pipe when command tracing is enabled. As well, when the device sends a reports/indications, send it over the "echo" pipe. The "trace" pipe is used by the device to send firmware traces; gets confusing. Another named pipe makes it easier to split debug information. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>
* wimax/i2400m: fix device crash: fix optimization in _roq_queue_update_wsInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-05-141-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the i2400m receives data and the device indicates there has to be reordering, we keep an sliding window implementation to sort the packets before sending them to the network stack. One of the "operations" that the device indicates is "queue a packet and update the window start". When the queue is empty, this is equivalent to "deliver the packet and update the window start". That case was optimized in i2400m_roq_queue_update_ws() so that we would not pointlessly queue and dequeue a packet. However, when the optimization was active, it wasn't updating the window start. That caused the reorder management code to get confused later on with what seemed to be wrong reorder requests from the device. Thus the fix implemented is to do the right thing and update the window start in both cases, when the queue is empty (and the optimization is done) and when not.

* wimax/i2400m: implement RX reorder supportInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-03-021-25/+652
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow the device to give the driver RX data with reorder information. When that is done, the device will indicate the driver if a packet has to be held in a (sorted) queue. It will also tell the driver when held packets have to be released to the OS. This is done to improve the WiMAX-protocol level retransmission support when missing frames are detected. The code docs provide details about the implementation. In general, this just hooks into the RX path in rx.c; if a packet with the reorder bit in the RX header is detected, the reorder information in the header is extracted and one of the four main reorder operations are executed. In one case (queue) no packet will be delivered to the networking stack, just queued, whereas in the others (reset, update_ws and queue_update_ws), queued packet might be delivered depending on the window start for the specific queue. The modifications to files other than rx.c are: - control.c: during device initialization, enable reordering support if the rx_reorder_disabled module parameter is not enabled - driver.c: expose a rx_reorder_disable module parameter and call i2400m_rx_setup/release() to initialize/shutdown RX reorder support. - i2400m.h: introduce members in 'struct i2400m' needed for implementing reorder support. - linux/i2400m.h: introduce TLVs, commands and constant definitions related to RX reorder Last but not least, the rx reorder code includes an small circular log where the last N reorder operations are recorded to be displayed in case of inconsistency. Otherwise diagnosing issues would be almost impossible. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* wimax/i2400m: support extended data RX protocol (no need to reallocate skbs)Inaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-03-021-8/+109
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer i2400m firmwares (>= v1.4) extend the data RX protocol so that each packet has a 16 byte header. This header is mainly used to implement host reordeing (which is addressed in later commits). However, this header also allows us to overwrite it (once data has been extracted) with an Ethernet header and deliver to the networking stack without having to reallocate the skb (as it happened in fw <= v1.3) to make room for it. - control.c: indicate the device [dev_initialize()] that the driver wants to use the extended data RX protocol. Also involves adding the definition of the needed data types in include/linux/wimax/i2400m.h. - rx.c: handle the new payload type for the extended RX data protocol. Prepares the skb for delivery to netdev.c:i2400m_net_erx(). - netdev.c: Introduce i2400m_net_erx() that adds the fake ethernet address to a prepared skb and delivers it to the networking stack. - cleanup: in most instances in rx.c, the variable 'single' was renamed to 'single_last' for it better conveys its meaning.

* i2400m: RX and TX data/control pathsInaky Perez-Gonzalez2009-01-071-0/+534
Handling of TX/RX data to/from the i2400m device (IP packets, control and diagnostics). On RX, this parses the received read transaction from the device, breaks it in chunks and passes it to the corresponding subsystems (network and control). Transmission to the device is done through a software FIFO, as data/control frames can be coalesced (while the device is reading the previous tx transaction, others accumulate). A FIFO is used because at the end it is resource-cheaper that scatter/gather over USB. As well, most traffic is going to be download (vs upload).
