      USB: EHCI: resolve some unlikely races · 43fe3a99
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1589) resolves some unlikely races involving system
shutdown or controller death in ehci-hcd:

	Shutdown races with both root-hub resume and controller
	resume.

	Controller death races with root-hub suspend.

A new bitflag is added to indicate that the controller has been shut
down (whether for system shutdown or because it died).  Tests are
added in the suspend and resume pathways to avoid reactivating the
controller after any sort of shutdown.

      USB: EHCI: fix up locking · c4f34764
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1588) adjusts the locking in ehci-hcd's various halt,
shutdown, and suspend/resume pathways.  We want to hold the spinlock
while writing device registers and accessing shared variables, but not
while polling in a loop.

In addition, there's no need to call ehci_work() at times when no URBs
can be active, i.e., in ehci_stop() and ehci_bus_suspend().

Finally, ehci_adjust_port_wakeup_flags() is called only in situations
where interrupts are enabled; therefore it can use spin_lock_irq
rather than spin_lock_irqsave.

      USB: EHCI: simplify isochronous scanning · f4289078
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1587) simplifies ehci-hcd's scan_isoc() routine by
eliminating some local variables, declaring boolean-valued values as
bool rather than unsigned, changing variable names to make more sense,
and so on.

The logic at the end of the routine is cut down significantly.  The
scanning doesn't have to catch up all the way to where the hardware
is; it merely has to catch up to where the hardware was when the last
interrupt occurred.  If the hardware has made more progress since then
and issued another interrupt, a rescan will catch up to it.

      USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for the I/O watchdog · 18aafe64
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1586) replaces the kernel timer used by ehci-hcd as an
I/O watchdog with an hrtimer event.

Unlike in the current code, the watchdog event is now always enabled
whenever any isochronous URBs are active.  This will prevent bugs
caused by the periodic schedule wrapping around with no completion
interrupts; the watchdog handler is guaranteed to scan the isochronous
transfers at least once during each iteration of the schedule.  The
extra overhead will be negligible: one timer interrupt every 100 ms.

      USB: EHCI: always scan each interrupt QH · 569b394f
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1585) fixes a bug in ehci-hcd's scheme for scanning
interrupt QHs.

Currently a single routine takes care of scanning everything on the
periodic schedule.  Whenever an interrupt occurs, it scans all
isochronous and interrupt URBs scheduled for frames that have elapsed
since the last scan.

This has two disadvantages.  The first is relatively minor: An
interrupt QH is likely to end up getting scanned multiple times,
particularly if the last scan was not fairly recent.  (The current
code avoids this by maintaining a periodic_stamp in each interrupt
QH.)

The second is more serious.  The periodic schedule wraps around.  If
the last scan occurred during frame N, and the next scan occurs when
the schedule has gone through an entire cycle and is back at frame N,
the scanning code won't look at any frames other than N.  Consequently
it won't see any QHs that completed during frame N-1 or earlier.

The patch replaces the entire frame-based approach for scanning
interrupt QHs with a new routine using a list-based approach, the same
as for async QHs.  This has a slight disadvantage, because it means
that all interrupt QHs have to be scanned every time.  But it is more
robust than the current approach.

      USB: EHCI: don't lose events during a scan · 361aabf3
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1584) fixes a minor bug that has been present in
ehci-hcd since the beginning.

Scanning the schedules for URB completions is single-threaded.  If a
completion interrupt occurs while an URB is being given back, the
interrupt handler realizes that a scan is in progress on another CPU
and avoids starting a new one.

This means that completion events can be lost.  If an URB completes
after it has been scanned but while a scan is still in progress, the
driver won't notice and won't rescan the completed URB.

The patch fixes the problem by adding a new flag to indicate that
another scan is needed after the current scan is done.  The flag gets
set whenever a completion interrupt occurs while a scan is in
progress.  The rescan will see the completion, thus preventing it from
getting lost.

      USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for unlinking empty async QHs · 32830f20
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1583) changes ehci-hcd to use an hrtimer event for
unlinking empty (unused) async QHs instead of using a kernel timer.

The check for empty QHs is moved to a new routine, where it doesn't
require going through an entire scan of both the async and periodic
schedules.  And it can unlink multiple QHs at once, unlike the current
code.

      USB: EHCI: unlink multiple async QHs together · 3c273a05
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1582) changes ehci-hcd's strategy for unlinking async
QHs.  Currently the driver never unlinks more than one QH at a time.
This can be inefficient and cause unnecessary delays, since a QH
cannot be reused while it is waiting to be unlinked.

The new strategy unlinks all the waiting QHs at once.  In practice the
improvement won't be very big, because it's somewhat uncommon to have
two or more QHs waiting to be unlinked at any time.  But it does
happen, and in any case, doing things this way makes more sense IMO.

The change requires the async unlinking code to be refactored
slightly.  Now in addition to the routines for starting and ending an
unlink, there are new routines for unlinking a single QH and starting
an IAA cycle.  This approach is needed because there are two separate
paths for unlinking async QHs:

	When a transfer error occurs or an URB is cancelled, the QH
	must be unlinked right away;

	When a QH has been idle sufficiently long, it is unlinked
	to avoid consuming DMA bandwidth uselessly.

In the first case we want the unlink to proceed as quickly as
possible, whereas in the second case we can afford to batch several
QHs together and unlink them all at once.  Hence the division of
labor.

      USB: EHCI: don't refcount iso_stream structures · 8c5bf7be
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1580) makes ehci_iso_stream structures behave more like
QHs, in that they will remain allocated until their isochronous
endpoint is disabled.  This will come in useful in the future, when
periodic bandwidth gets allocated as an altsetting is installed rather
than on-the-fly.

For now, the change to the ehci_iso_stream lifetimes means that each
structure is always deallocated at exactly one spot in
ehci_endpoint_disable() and never used again.  As a result, it is no
longer necessary to use reference counting on these things, and the
patch removes it.

      USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for (s)iTD deallocation · 55934eb3
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1579) adds an hrtimer event to handle deallocation of
iTDs and siTDs in ehci-hcd.

Because of the frame-oriented approach used by the EHCI periodic
schedule, the hardware can continue to access the Transfer Descriptor
for isochronous (or split-isochronous) transactions for up to a
millisecond after the transaction completes.  The iTD (or siTD) must
not be reused before then.

The strategy currently used involves putting completed iTDs on a list
of cached entries and every so often returning them to the endpoint's
free list.  The new strategy reduces overhead by putting completed
iTDs back on the free list immediately, although they are not reused
until it is safe to do so.

When the isochronous endpoint stops (its queue becomes empty), the
iTDs on its free list get moved to a global list, from which they will
be deallocated after a minimum of 2 ms.  This delay is what the new
hrtimer event is for.

Overall this may not be a tremendous improvement over the current
code, but to me it seems a lot more clear and logical.  In addition,
it removes the need for each iTD to keep a reference to the
ehci_iso_stream it belongs to, since the iTD never needs to be moved
back to the stream's free list from the global list.

      USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for interrupt QH unlink · df202255
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1577) adds hrtimer support for unlinking interrupt QHs
in ehci-hcd.  The current code relies on a fixed delay of either 2 or
55 us, which is not always adequate and in any case is totally bogus.
Thanks to internal caching, the EHCI hardware may continue to access
an interrupt QH for more than a millisecond after it has been unlinked.

In fact, the EHCI spec doesn't say how long to wait before using an
unlinked interrupt QH.  The patch sets the delay to 9 microframes
minimum, which ought to be adequate.

      USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for async schedule · 31446610
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1576) adds hrtimer support for managing ehci-hcd's
async schedule.  Just as with the earlier change to the periodic
schedule management, two new hrtimer events take care of everything.

One event polls at 1-ms intervals to see when the Asynchronous
Schedule Status (ASS) flag matches the Asynchronous Schedule Enable
(ASE) value; the schedule's state must not be changed until it does.
The other event delays for 15 ms after the async schedule becomes
empty before turning it off.

The new events replace a busy-wait poll and a kernel timer usage.
They also replace the rather illogical method currently used for
indicating the async schedule should be turned off: attempting to
unlink the dedicated QH at the head of the async list.

      This patch (as1575) removes special code added for status polling of

the polling is now carried out by an hrtimer handler.  When the

      USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for the periodic schedule · 3ca9aeba
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1573) adds hrtimer support for managing ehci-hcd's
periodic schedule.  There are two issues to deal with.

First, the schedule's state (on or off) must not be changed until the
hardware status has caught up with the current command.  This is
handled by an hrtimer event that polls at 1-ms intervals to see when
the Periodic Schedule Status (PSS) flag matches the Periodic Schedule
Enable (PSE) value.

Second, the schedule should not be turned off as soon as it becomes
empty.  Turning the schedule on and off takes time, so we want to wait
until the schedule has been empty for a suitable period before turning
it off.  This is handled by an hrtimer event that gets set to expire
10 ms after the periodic schedule becomes empty.

The existing code polls (for up to 1125 us and with interrupts
disabled!) to check the status, and doesn't implement a delay before
turning off the schedule.  Furthermore, if the polling fails then the
driver decides that the controller has died.  This has caused problems
for several people; some controllers can take 10 ms or more to turn
off their periodic schedules.

This patch fixes these issues.  It also makes the "broken_periodic"
workaround unnecessary; there is no longer any danger of turning off
the periodic schedule after it has been on for less than 1 ms.

      USB: EHCI: introduce high-res timer · d58b4bcc
      Alan Stern authored 
      This patch (as1572) begins the conversion of ehci-hcd over to using
high-resolution timers rather than old-fashioned low-resolution kernel
timers.  This reduces overhead caused by timer roundoff on systems
where HZ is smaller than 1000.  Also, the new timer framework
introduced here is much more logical and easily extended than the
ad-hoc approach ehci-hcd currently uses for timers.

An hrtimer structure is added to ehci_hcd, along with a bitflag array
and an array of ktime_t values, to keep track of which timing events
are pending and what their expiration times are.

Only the infrastructure for the timing operations is added in this
patch.  Later patches will add routines for handling each of the
various timing events the driver needs.  In some cases the new hrtimer
handlers will replace the existing handlers for ehci-hcd's kernel
timers; as this happens the old timers will be removed.  In other
cases the new timing events will replace busy-wait loops.

Although the purpose may not be apparent, this distinction will come

the root hub being operational (like turning on the async or periodic
schedules) when they see the state is EHCI_RH_STOPPING.
