Due to occasional DMA channel hangs observed for I/OAT versions 1.2 and 2.0
a watchdog has been introduced to check every 2 seconds
if all channels progress normally.
If stuck channel is detected, driver resets it.
The reset is done in two parts. The second part is scheduled
by the first one to reinitialize the channel after the restart.

This adds a driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller (aka
DMACA on AVR32 systems.) This DMA controller can be found integrated
on the AT32AP7000 chip and is primarily meant for peripheral DMA
transfer, but can also be used for memory-to-memory transfers.
This patch is based on a driver from David Brownell which was based on
an older version of the DMA Engine framework. It also implements the
proposed extensions to the DMA Engine API for slave DMA operations.
The dmatest client shows no problems, but there may still be room for
improvement performance-wise. DMA slave transfer performance is
definitely "good enough"; reading 100 MiB from an SD card running at ~20
MHz yields ~7.2 MiB/s average transfer rate.
Full documentation for this controller can be found in the Synopsys
DW AHB DMAC Databook:
http://www.synopsys.com/designware/docs/iip/DW_ahb_dmac/latest/doc/dw_ahb_dmac_db.pdf
The controller has lots of implementation options, so it's usually a
good idea to check the data sheet of the chip it's intergrated on as
well. The AT32AP7000 data sheet can be found here:

This patch adds the necessary interfaces to the DMA Engine framework
to use functionality found on most embedded DMA controllers: DMA from
and to I/O registers with hardware handshaking.
In this context, hardware hanshaking means that the peripheral that
owns the I/O registers in question is able to tell the DMA controller
when more data is available for reading, or when there is room for
more data to be written. This usually happens internally on the chip,
but these signals may also be exported outside the chip for things
like IDE DMA, etc.
A new struct dma_slave is introduced. This contains information that
the DMA engine driver needs to set up slave transfers to and from a
slave device. Most engines supporting DMA slave transfers will want to
extend this structure with controller-specific parameters. This
additional information is usually passed from the platform/board code
through the client driver.
A "slave" pointer is added to the dma_client struct. This must point
to a valid dma_slave structure iff the DMA_SLAVE capability is
requested. The DMA engine driver may use this information in its
device_alloc_chan_resources hook to configure the DMA controller for
slave transfers from and to the given slave device.
A new operation for preparing slave DMA transfers is added to struct
dma_device. This takes a scatterlist and returns a single descriptor
representing the whole transfer.
Another new operation for terminating all pending transfers is added as
well. The latter is needed because there may be errors outside the scope
of the DMA Engine framework that may require DMA operations to be
terminated prematurely.
DMA Engine drivers may extend the dma_device, dma_chan and/or
dma_slave_descriptor structures to allow controller-specific
operations. The client driver can detect such extensions by looking at
the DMA Engine's struct device, or it can request a specific DMA
Engine device by setting the dma_dev field in struct dma_slave.
dmaslave interface changes since v4:
* Fix checkpatch errors
* Fix changelog (there are no slave descriptors anymore)
dmaslave interface changes since v3:
* Use dma_data_direction instead of a new enum
* Submit slave transfers as scatterlists
* Remove the DMA slave descriptor struct
dmaslave interface changes since v2:
* Add a dma_dev field to struct dma_slave. If set, the client can
only be bound to the DMA controller that corresponds to this
device. This allows controller-specific extensions of the
dma_slave structure; if the device matches, the controller may
safely assume its extensions are present.
* Move reg_width into struct dma_slave as there are currently no
users that need to be able to set the width on a per-transfer
basis.
dmaslave interface changes since v1:
* Drop the set_direction and set_width descriptor hooks. Pass the
direction and width to the prep function instead.
* Declare a dma_slave struct with fixed information about a slave,
i.e. register addresses, handshake interfaces and such.
* Add pointer to a dma_slave struct to dma_client. Can be NULL if
the DMA_SLAVE capability isn't requested.
* Drop the set_slave device hook since the alloc_chan_resources hook
now has enough information to set up the channel for slave
transfers.

In some cases client code may need the dma-driver to skip the unmap of source
and/or destination buffers. Setting these flags indicates to the driver to
skip the unmap step. In this regard async_xor is currently broken in that it
allows the destination buffer to be unmapped while an operation is still in
progress, i.e. when the number of sources exceeds the hardware channel's
maximum (fixed in a subsequent patch).

A DMA controller capable of doing slave transfers may need to know a
few things about the slave when preparing the channel. We don't want
to add this information to struct dma_channel since the channel hasn't
yet been bound to a client at this point.
Instead, pass a reference to the client requesting the channel to the
driver's device_alloc_chan_resources hook so that it can pick the
necessary information from the dma_client struct by itself.

This client tests DMA memcpy using various lengths and various offsets
into the source and destination buffers. It will initialize both
buffers with a repeatable pattern and verify that the DMA engine copies
the requested region and nothing more. It will also verify that the
bytes aren't swapped around, and that the source buffer isn't modified.
The dmatest module can be configured to test a specific device, a
specific channel. It can also test multiple channels at the same time,
and it can start multiple threads competing for the same channel.
Changes since v2:

* Support testing with multiple threads competing for the same channel
* Use counting test patterns in order to catch byte ordering issues
Changes since v1:

* Remove "default n" from Kconfig
* Turn TEST_BUF_SIZE into a module parameter
* Return DMA_NAK instead of DMA_DUP
* Print unhandled events

The XOR engine found in Marvell's SoCs and system controllers
provides XOR and DMA operation, iSCSI CRC32C calculation, memory
initialization, and memory ECC error cleanup operation support.
This driver implements the DMA engine API and supports the following
capabilities:
- memcpy
- xor
- memset
The XOR engine can be used by DMA engine clients implemented in the
kernel, one of those clients is the RAID module. In that case, I
observed 20% improvement in the raid5 write throughput, and 40%
decrease in the CPU utilization when doing array construction, those
results obtained on an 5182 running at 500Mhz.
When enabling the NET DMA client, the performance decreased, so
meanwhile it is recommended to keep this client off.

Haavard's dma-slave interface would like to test for exclusive access to a
channel. The standard channel refcounting is not sufficient in that it
tracks more than just client references, it is also inaccurate as reference
counts are percpu until the channel is removed.

'ack' is currently a simple integer that flags whether or not a client is done
touching fields in the given descriptor. It is effectively just a single bit
of information. Converting this to a flags parameter allows the other bits to
be put to use to control completion actions, like dma-unmap, and capture
results, like xor-zero-sum == 0.
Changes are one of:
1/ convert all open-coded ->ack manipulations to use async_tx_ack
and async_tx_test_ack.
2/ set the ack bit at prep time where possible
3/ make drivers store the flags at prep time
4/ add flags to the device_prep_dma_interrupt prototype

The tx_set_src and tx_set_dest methods were originally implemented to allow
an array of addresses to be passed down from async_xor to the dmaengine
driver while minimizing stack overhead. Removing these methods allows
drivers to have all transaction parameters available at 'prep' time, saves
two function pointers in struct dma_async_tx_descriptor, and reduces the
number of indirect branches..
A consequence of moving this data to the 'prep' routine is that
multi-source routines like async_xor need temporary storage to convert an
array of linear addresses into an array of dma addresses. In order to keep
the same stack footprint of the previous implementation the input array is
reused as storage for the dma addresses. This requires that
sizeof(dma_addr_t) be less than or equal to sizeof(void *). As a
consequence CONFIG_DMADEVICES now depends on !CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G. It also
requires that drivers be able to make descriptor resources available when
the 'prep' routine is polled.

The Intel(R) IOP series of i/o processors integrate an Xscale core with
raid acceleration engines. The capabilities per platform are:
iop219:
(2) copy engines
iop321:
(2) copy engines
(1) xor and block fill engine
iop33x:
(2) copy and crc32c engines
(1) xor, xor zero sum, pq, pq zero sum, and block fill engine
iop34x (iop13xx):
(2) copy, crc32c, xor, xor zero sum, and block fill engines
(1) copy, crc32c, xor, xor zero sum, pq, pq zero sum, and block fill engine
The driver supports the features of the async_tx api:
* asynchronous notification of operation completion
* implicit (interupt triggered) handling of inter-channel transaction
dependencies
The driver adapts to the platform it is running by two methods.
1/ #include <asm/arch/adma.h> which defines the hardware specific
iop_chan_* and iop_desc_* routines as a series of static inline
functions
2/ The private platform data attached to the platform_device defines the
capabilities of the channels
20070626: Callbacks are run in a tasklet. Given the recent discussion on
LKML about killing tasklets in favor of workqueues I did a quick conversion
of the driver. Raid5 resync performance dropped from 50MB/s to 30MB/s, so
the tasklet implementation remains until a generic softirq interface is
available.
Changelog:
* fixed a slot allocation bug in do_iop13xx_adma_xor that caused too few
slots to be requested eventually leading to data corruption
* enabled the slot allocation routine to attempt to free slots before
returning -ENOMEM
* switched the cleanup routine to solely use the software chain and the
status register to determine if a descriptor is complete. This is
necessary to support other IOP engines that do not have status writeback
capability
* make the driver iop generic
* modified the allocation routines to understand allocating a group of
slots for a single operation
* added a null xor initialization operation for the xor only channel on
iop3xx
* support xor operations on buffers larger than the hardware maximum
* split the do_* routines into separate prep, src/dest set, submit stages
* added async_tx support (dependent operations initiation at cleanup time)
* simplified group handling
* added interrupt support (callbacks via tasklets)
* brought the pending depth inline with ioat (i.e. 4 descriptors)
* drop dma mapping methods, suggested by Chris Leech
* don't use inline in C files, Adrian Bunk
* remove static tasklet declarations
* make iop_adma_alloc_slots easier to read and remove chances for a
corrupted descriptor chain
* fix locking bug in iop_adma_alloc_chan_resources, Benjamin Herrenschmidt
* convert capabilities over to dma_cap_mask_t

The async_tx api provides methods for describing a chain of asynchronous
bulk memory transfers/transforms with support for inter-transactional
dependencies. It is implemented as a dmaengine client that smooths over
the details of different hardware offload engine implementations. Code
that is written to the api can optimize for asynchronous operation and the
api will fit the chain of operations to the available offload resources.
I imagine that any piece of ADMA hardware would register with the
'async_*' subsystem, and a call to async_X would be routed as
appropriate, or be run in-line. - Neil Brown
async_tx exploits the capabilities of struct dma_async_tx_descriptor to
provide an api of the following general format:
struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *
async_<operation>(..., struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *depend_tx,
dma_async_tx_callback cb_fn, void *cb_param)
{
struct dma_chan *chan = async_tx_find_channel(depend_tx, <operation>);
struct dma_device *device = chan ? chan->device : NULL;
int int_en = cb_fn ? 1 : 0;
struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx = device ?
device->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_en) : NULL;
if (tx) { /* run <operation> asynchronously */
...
tx->tx_set_dest(addr, tx, index);
...
tx->tx_set_src(addr, tx, index);
...
async_tx_submit(chan, tx, flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param);
} else { /* run <operation> synchronously */
...
<operation>
...
async_tx_sync_epilog(flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param);
}
return tx;
}
async_tx_find_channel() returns a capable channel from its pool. The
channel pool is organized as a per-cpu array of channel pointers. The
async_tx_rebalance() routine is tasked with managing these arrays. In the
uniprocessor case async_tx_rebalance() tries to spread responsibility
evenly over channels of similar capabilities. For example if there are two
copy+xor channels, one will handle copy operations and the other will
handle xor. In the SMP case async_tx_rebalance() attempts to spread the
operations evenly over the cpus, e.g. cpu0 gets copy channel0 and xor
channel0 while cpu1 gets copy channel 1 and xor channel 1. When a
dependency is specified async_tx_find_channel defaults to keeping the
operation on the same channel. A xor->copy->xor chain will stay on one
channel if it supports both operation types, otherwise the transaction will
transition between a copy and a xor resource.
Currently the raid5 implementation in the MD raid456 driver has been
converted to the async_tx api. A driver for the offload engines on the
Intel Xscale series of I/O processors, iop-adma, is provided in a later
commit. With the iop-adma driver and async_tx, raid456 is able to offload
copy, xor, and xor-zero-sum operations to hardware engines.
On iop342 tiobench showed higher throughput for sequential writes (20 - 30%
improvement) and sequential reads to a degraded array (40 - 55%
improvement). For the other cases performance was roughly equal, +/- a few
percentage points. On a x86-smp platform the performance of the async_tx
implementation (in synchronous mode) was also +/- a few percentage points
of the original implementation. According to 'top' on iop342 CPU
utilization drops from ~50% to ~15% during a 'resync' while the speed
according to /proc/mdstat doubles from ~25 MB/s to ~50 MB/s.
The tiobench command line used for testing was: tiobench --size 2048
--block 4096 --block 131072 --dir /mnt/raid --numruns 5
* iop342 had 1GB of memory available
Details:
* if CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=n the asynchronous path is compiled away by making
async_tx_find_channel a static inline routine that always returns NULL
* when a callback is specified for a given transaction an interrupt will
fire at operation completion time and the callback will occur in a
tasklet. if the the channel does not support interrupts then a live
polling wait will be performed
* the api is written as a dmaengine client that requests all available
channels
* In support of dependencies the api implicitly schedules channel-switch
interrupts. The interrupt triggers the cleanup tasklet which causes
pending operations to be scheduled on the next channel
* Xor engines treat an xor destination address differently than a software
xor routine. To the software routine the destination address is an implied
source, whereas engines treat it as a write-only destination. This patch
modifies the xor_blocks routine to take a an explicit destination address
to mirror the hardware.
Changelog:
* fixed a leftover debug print
* don't allow callbacks in async_interrupt_cond

The current implementation assumes that a channel will only be used by one
client at a time. In order to enable channel sharing the dmaengine core is
changed to a model where clients subscribe to channel-available-events.
Instead of tracking how many channels a client wants and how many it has
received the core just broadcasts the available channels and lets the
clients optionally take a reference. The core learns about the clients'
needs at dma_event_callback time.
In support of multiple operation types, clients can specify a capability
mask to only be notified of channels that satisfy a certain set of
capabilities.
Changelog:
* removed DMA_TX_ARRAY_INIT, no longer needed
* dma_client_chan_free -> dma_chan_release: switch to global reference
counting only at device unregistration time, before it was also happening
at client unregistration time
* clients now return dma_state_client to dmaengine (ack, dup, nak)

The current dmaengine interface defines mutliple routines per operation,
i.e. dma_async_memcpy_buf_to_buf, dma_async_memcpy_buf_to_page etc. Adding
more operation types (xor, crc, etc) to this model would result in an
unmanageable number of method permutations.
Are we really going to add a set of hooks for each DMA engine
whizbang feature?
- Jeff Garzik
The descriptor creation process is refactored using the new common
dma_async_tx_descriptor structure. Instead of per driver
do_<operation>_<dest>_to_<src> methods, drivers integrate
dma_async_tx_descriptor into their private software descriptor and then
define a 'prep' routine per operation. The prep routine allocates a
descriptor and ensures that the tx_set_src, tx_set_dest, tx_submit routines
are valid. Descriptor creation and submission becomes:
struct dma_device *dev;
struct dma_chan *chan;
struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx;
tx = dev->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_flag)
tx->tx_set_src(dma_addr_t, tx, index /* for multi-source ops */)
tx->tx_set_dest(dma_addr_t, tx, index)
tx->tx_submit(tx)
In addition to the refactoring, dma_async_tx_descriptor also lays the
groundwork for definining cross-channel-operation dependencies, and a
callback facility for asynchronous notification of operation completion.
Changelog:
* drop dma mapping methods, suggested by Chris Leech
* fix ioat_dma_dependency_added, also caught by Andrew Morton
* fix dma_sync_wait, change from Andrew Morton
* uninline large functions, change from Andrew Morton
* add tx->callback = NULL to dmaengine calls to interoperate with async_tx

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.
