* ieee1394: rawiso: requeue packet for transmission after skipped cyclePieter Palmers2008-04-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it seems, some host controllers have issues that can cause them to skip cycles now and then when using large packets. I suspect that this is due to DMA not succeeding in time. If the transmit fifo can't contain more than one packet (big packets), the DMA should provide a new packet each cycle (125us). I am under the impression that my current PCI express test system can't guarantee this. In any case, the patch tries to provide a workaround as follows: The DMA program descriptors are modified such that when an error occurs, the DMA engine retries the descriptor the next cycle instead of stalling. This way no data is lost. The side effect of this is that packets are sent with one cycle delay. This however might not be that much of a problem for certain protocols (e.g. AM824). If they use padding packets for e.g. rate matching they can drop one of those to resync the streams. The amount of skips between two userspace wakeups is counted. This number is then propagated to userspace through the upper 16 bits of the 'dropped' parameter. This allows unmodified userspace applications due to the following: 1) libraw simply passes this dropped parameter to the user application 2) the meaning of the dropped parameter is: if it's nonzero, something bad has happened. The actual value of the parameter at this moment does not have a specific meaning. A libraw client can then retrieve the number of skipped cycles and account for them if needed.

* [PATCH] Sync up ieee-1394Ben Collins2005-07-101-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being intialized to 0, etc). There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling). Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly. We've also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the sake of cleanliness in the kernel. However, instead of removing them completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree that use our API for driver development. The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers. The new conversions handled directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2. This patch reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire disks and dvd drives again. We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside of the main kernel tree. We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.

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!
