* drivers/rapidio/devices/tsi721_dma.c: optimize use of BDMA descriptorsAlexandre Bounine2014-04-071-33/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | Combine SG entries describing single contiguous memory block into one Tsi721 BDMA descriptor. This reduces number of hardware descriptors required for large data transfers and improves performance on the PCIe side by reducing number of descriptor fetch requests.

* rapidio/tsi721: fix tasklet termination in dma channel releaseAlexandre Bounine2014-03-041-9/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a modification of the patch originally proposed by Xiaotian Feng <xtfeng@gmail.com>: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/413 This new version disables DMA channel interrupts and ensures that the tasklet wil not be scheduled again before calling tasklet_kill(). Unfortunately the updated patch was not released at that time due to planned rework of Tsi721 mport driver to use threaded interrupts (which has yet to happen). Recently the issue was reported again: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/19/762. Description from the original Xiaotian's patch: "Some drivers use tasklet_disable in device remove/release process, tasklet_disable will inc tasklet->count and return. If the tasklet is not handled yet under some softirq pressure, the tasklet will be placed on the tasklet_vec, never have a chance to be excuted. This might lead to a heavy loaded ksoftirqd, wakeup with pending_softirq, but tasklet is disabled. tasklet_kill should be used in this case." This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.5.

* rapidio/tsi721: add DMA engine supportAlexandre Bounine2012-05-311-0/+823
Adds support for DMA Engine API into Tsi721 mport driver. Includes following changes for Tsi721 driver: - Modifies BDMA register offset definitions to support per-channel handling - Separates BDMA channel reserved for RIO Maintenance requests - Adds DMA Engine callback routines Signed-off-by: Alexandre Bounine <alexandre.bounine@idt.com> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Vinod Koul <vinod.koul@intel.com> Cc: Li Yang <leoli@freescale.com> Cc: Matt Porter <mporter@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
