The drivers
- ohci1394 (controller driver)
- ieee1394 (core)
- dv1394, raw1394, video1394 (userspace ABI)
- eth1394, sbp2 (protocol drivers)
are replaced by
- firewire-ohci (controller driver)
- firewire-core (core and userspace ABI)
- firewire-net, firewire-sbp2 (protocol drivers)
which are more featureful, better performing, and more secure than the older
drivers; all with a smaller and more modern code base.
The driver firedtv in drivers/media/dvb/firewire/ contains backends to both
ieee1394 and firewire-core. Its ieee1394 backend code can be removed in an
independent commit; firedtv as-is builds and works fine without ieee1394.
The driver pcilynx (an incomplete controller driver) is deleted without
replacement since PCILynx cards are extremely rare. Owners of these cards
use them with the stand-alone bus sniffer driver nosy instead.
The drivers nosy and init_ohci1394_dma which do not interact with either of
the two IEEE 1394 stacks are not affected by the ieee1394 subsystem removal.
There are still some issues with the newer firewire subsystem compared to
the older one:
- The rare and quirky controllers ALi M52xx, Apple UniNorth v1, NVIDIA
NForce2 are even less well supported by firewire-ohci than by ohci1394.
I am looking into the M52xx issue.
- The experimental firewire-net is reportedly less stable than its
experimental cousin eth1394.
- Audio playback of a certain group of audio devices (ones based on DICE
chipset with EAP; supported by prerelease FFADO code) does not work yet.
This issue is still under investigation.
- There were some ieee1394 based out-of-the-mainline drivers. Of them,
only lisight, an audio driver for iSight webcams, seems still useful.
Work is underway to reimplement it on top of firewire-core.
All these remainig issues are minor; they should not stand in the way of
overall better user experience of IEEE 1394 on Linux, together with a
reduction in support efforts and maintenance burden. The coexistence of two
IEEE 1394 kernel driver stacks in the mainline since 2.6.22 shall end now,
as announced earlier this year.

Two access functions get_max_rom and set_hw_config_rom are
changed to take __be32 as well. Only bus_info_data was
ever passed in so this is OK. All other uses of bus_info_data
treated it as a be32 value already.

It is already known that buggy firmwares exist which report a bogus
link_spd in their config ROM bus info block. We now got the first
report of a bogus max_rom too (Freecom FireWire Hard Drive 1TB,
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12206).
I suspect other OSs only use quadlet reads to fetch the config ROM,
otherwise the firmware authors would have noticed their mistake.
Hence limit ieee1394's config ROM fetching routine to quadlets as the
safe minimum regardless of what the bus info block says.
This will potentially slow the bus reset handling by nodemgr somewhat
down. But most existing devices support only quadlet reads anyway,
hence there will often be no actual difference to before this change.

At least since nodemgr got rid of coarse global locking, accesses to
struct csr1212_keyval's reference counter should be atomic and coupled
with proper barriers. Also, calls to csr1212_keep_keyval(kv) should
occur before kv is being used.
(We probably should convert refcnt to struct kref, but how to keep
csr1212_destroy_keyval's implementation non-recursively then?)

The biggest chunk ever allocated by CSR1212_MALLOC is 1024 Bytes +
sizeof(struct csr1212_csr_rom_cache) big. Most of the time much
smaller data structures are allocated. Therefore vmalloc is a waste.
The one exception is csr1212_append_new_cache() which is called to
append a chunk of CSR1212_EXTENDED_ROM_SIZE + sizeof(struct
csr1212_csr_rom_cache) if the currently allocated ROM cache is too
small. CSR1212_EXTENDED_ROM_SIZE is generously defined as 256 kBytes.
In SVN commit 1220, Steve Kinneberg lowered this to 2 kBytes in the
config_rom_2.4 branch. This same commit also switched CSR1212_MALLOC
from kmalloc to vmalloc in the SVN trunk branch:

I am now setting CSR1212_EXTENDED_ROM_SIZE to 2 kB minus the overhead of
struct csr1212_csr_rom_cache. Note, this code path is not used by the
in-kernel drivers though. raw1394 could trigger it, but the respective
libraw1394 functions don't exist yet.
Furthermore, userspace programs can replace the entire local ROM via
raw1394. If kmalloc does not fulfill their needs --- well, tough luck.
I decree that nobody needs such huge extended ROMs. (Extended ROMs are
defined by IEEE 1212 clause 7.7.18. The spec does not impose
practically relevant restrictions on the size of extended ROM chunks.)
Another potentially demanding use of CSR1212_MALLOC is if external
FireWire devices come with Extended ROM entries. If they are too big
for kmalloc (or have been too big for vmalloc) we just fail to read
their ROM. This is quite unlikely though, to my knowledge.

exported symbol and a few bytes in the driver modules.

csr1212 was written to be compiled either as part of the ieee1394 kernel
driver or of an anticipated IEEE 1212 userspace library. We now drop
support for the latter. The costs in terms of code footprint and depth
of abstraction are not countered by any actual benefit.
Also remove some obsolete #includes.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
