* GRETH: resolve SMP issues and other problemsDaniel Hellstrom2011-01-141-67/+92
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes the following: 1. POLL should not enable IRQ when work is not completed 2. No locking between TX descriptor cleaning and XMIT descriptor handling 3. No locking between RX POLL and XMIT modifying control register 4. Since TX cleaning (called from POLL) is running in parallel with XMIT unnecessary locking is needed. 5. IRQ handler looks at RX frame status solely, this is wrong when IRQ is temporarily disabled (in POLL), and when IRQ is shared. 6. IRQ handler clears IRQ status, which is unnecessary 7. TX queue was stopped in preventing cause when not MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1 descriptors were available after a SKB been scheduled by XMIT. Instead the TX queue is stopped first when not enough descriptors are available upon entering XMIT. It was hard to split up this patch in smaller pieces since all are tied together somehow. Note the RX flag used in the interrupt handler does not signal that interrupt was asserted, but that a frame was received. Same goes for TX. Also, IRQ is not asserted when the RX flag is set before enabling IRQ enable until a new frame is received. So extra care must be taken to avoid enabling IRQ and all descriptors are already used, hence dead lock will upon us. See new POLL implementation that enableds IRQ then look at the RX flag to determine if one or more IRQs may have been missed. TX/RX flags are cleared before handling previously enabled descriptors, this ensures that the RX/TX flags are valid when determining if IRQ should be turned on again. By moving TX cleaning from POLL to XMIT in the standard case, removes some locking trouble. Enabling TX cleaning from poll only when not enough TX descriptors are available is safe because the TX queue is at the same time stopped, thus XMIT will not be called. The TX queue is woken up again when enough descriptrs are available. TX Frames are always enabled with IRQ, however the TX IRQ Enable flag will not be enabled until XMIT must wait for free descriptors. Locking RX and XMIT parts of the driver from each other is needed because the RX/TX enable bits share the same register. Signed-off-by: Daniel Hellstrom <daniel@gaisler.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* GRETH: handle frame error interruptsDaniel Hellstrom2011-01-141-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | Frame error interrupts must also be handled since the RX flag only indicates successful reception, it is unlikely but the old code may lead to dead lock if 128 error frames are recieved in a row.

* | include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.
