Currently the i2400m driver was resetting by just calling i2400m->bus_reset(). However, this was missing stopping the TX queue and downing the carrier. This was causing, for the corner case of the driver reseting a device that refuses to go out of idle mode, that a few packets would be queued and more than one reset would go through, making the recovery a wee bit messy. To avoid introducing the same cleanup in all the bus-specific driver, introduced a i2400m_reset() function that takes care of house cleaning and then calling the bus-level reset implementation. The bulk of the changes in all files are just to rename the call from i2400m->bus_reset() to i2400m_reset(). Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Some versions of the user space Intel WiMAX daemon need to have full control over the device initialization sequence. By setting the module option i2400.passive_mode to 1, the driver defers all device configuration and initialization to user space. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Currently the SDIO part of the TX resources were initialized/released with bus_dev_{start,stop}. The generic code's TX subsystem is destroyed afterwards, so there is a window from the bus-TX destruction to the generic-TX destruction where the generic-TX code might call into bus-TX to do transactions. The SDIO code cannot really cope with this (whereas in USB, how it is laid out, it correctly ignores it). In any case, it made no sense for the SDIO TX code to be in i2400m->bus_dev_start/stop(), so moved to i2400m->bus_setup/release(), which also takes care of the oops.

In coming commits, the i2400m SDIO driver will not use i2400m->bus_dev_stop(). Thus changed to check before calling, as an empty stub has more overhead than a call to check if the function pointer is non-NULL. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Current i2400m USB code had to threads (one for processing RX, one for TX). When calling i2400m_{tx,rx}_release(), it would crash if the thread had exited already due to an error. So changed the code to have the thread fill in/out i2400mu->{tx,rx}_kthread under a spinlock; then the _release() function will call kthread_stop() only if {rx,tx}_kthread is still set.

Currently __i2400m_dev_start was forcing, after uploading firmware and doing a few checks to WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED. This can be overriding state changes that the device might have caused by sending reports; thus it makes more sense to remove it and let the device update the status on its own by sending reports.

All the entry points into the TX module should check if the device has been torn down. Otherwise, when the device resets or shuts down, there are windows when a call to i2400m_tx*() will oops the system. For that, make i2400m_tx_release() set i2400m->tx_buf to NULL under the tx_lock. Then, any entry point [i2400m_tx(), _tx_msg_sent(), _tx_msg_get()] will check for i2400m->tx_buf to be NULL and exit gracefully. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

The i2400m might start sending reports to the driver before it is done setting up all the infrastructure needed for handling them. Currently we were just dropping them when the driver wasn't ready and that is bad in certain situations, as the sync between the driver's idea of the device's state and the device's state dissapears. This changes that by implementing a queue for handling reports. Incoming reports are appended to it and a workstruct is woken to process the list of queued reports. When the device is not yet ready to handle them, the workstruct is not woken, but at soon as the device becomes ready again, the queue is processed. As a consequence of this, i2400m_queue_work() is no longer used, and thus removed. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Upcoming changes will have to add things to this function that expose more internals, which would mean more forward declarators.

Since the addition of the pre/post reset handlers, it became clear that we cannot do a I2400M-RT-BUS type reset while holding the init_mutex, as in the case of USB, it will deadlock when trying to call i2400m_pre_reset(). Thus, the following changes: - clarify the fact that calling bus_reset() w/ I2400M_RT_BUS while holding init_mutex is a no-no. - i2400m_dev_reset_handle() will do a BUS reset to recover a gone device after unlocking init_mutex. - in the USB reset implementation, when cold and warm reset fails, fallback to QUEUING a usb reset, not executing a USB reset, so it happens from another context and does not deadlock.

The stop procedure for the device must make sure that any task that is waiting on a message is properly cancelled. This was being taken care of only by the __i2400m_dev_reset_handle() path and the rest was working by chance because the waits have a timeout. Fixed by adding a proper cancellation in __i2400m_dev_stop(). Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

The actual fw->size may not equal to the bcf size indicated in the bcf header if the extended bcf debug header is added in the tail. To reflect the actual fw size that will be downloaded to the device, it is now retrived from from the size field indicated in the bcf header. All of the headers (if there are extended headers) should indicate same value for the size field since only one set of firmware chunks is downloaded Signed-off-by: Cindy H Kao <cindy.h.kao@intel.com>

Both secure and non-secure boot must set the JUMP command in the bootmode header as the last FW chunk, so we change to use the JUMP command to decide if the FW chunk download is completed. Since we tend to use one single FW to support both secure and non-secure boot for most of the time, I2400M_BRH_SIGNED_JUMP is actually found even for non-secure boot. But in case the FW does come with I2400M_BRH_JUMP, we check for both of them in i2400m_dnload_bcf().

Until now, calls to wimax_rfkill() will be blocked until the device is at least past the WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED state, return -ENOMEDIUM when the device is in the WIMAX_ST_DOWN state. In parallel, wimax-tools would issue a wimax_rfkill(WIMAX_RF_QUERY) call right after opening a handle with wimaxll_open() as means to verify if the interface is really a WiMAX interface [newer kernel version will have a call specifically for this]. The combination of these two facts is that in some cases, before the driver has finalized initializing its device's firmware, a wimaxll_open() call would fail, when it should not. Thus, change the wimax_rfkill() code to allow queries when the device is in WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED state. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

tcpdump and friends were not being able to decode packets sent via WiMAX; they had a zero ethernet type, even when the stack was properly sending them to the device with the right type. It happens that the driver was overwriting the (fake) ethernet header for creating the hardware header and that was bitting the cloning used by tcpdump (et al) to look into the packets. Use pkskb_expand_head() [method copied from the e1000 driver] to fix. Thanks to Herbert Xu and Andi Kleen for helping to diagnose and pointing to the right fix.

The USB stack can callback a driver is about to be reset by an external entity and right after it, so the driver can save state and then restore it. This commit implements said support; it is implemented actually in the core, bus-generic driver [i2400m_{pre,post}_reset()] and used by the bus-specific drivers. This way the SDIO driver can also use it once said support is brought to the SDIO stack. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

After the introduction of i2400m->bus_setup/release, there is no more race condition where the bootmode buffers are needed before i2400m_setup() is called. Before, the SDIO driver would setup RX before calling i2400m_setup() and thus need those buffers; now RX setup is done in i2400m->bus_setup(), which is called by i2400m_setup(). Thus, all the bootmode buffer management can now be done completely inside i2400m_setup()/i2400m_release(), removing complexity from the bus-specific drivers.

The SDIO subdriver of the i2400m requires certain steps to be done before we do any acces to the device, even for doing firmware upload. This lead to a few ugly hacks, which basically involve doing those steps in probe() before calling i2400m_setup() and undoing them in disconnect() after claling i2400m_release(); but then, much of those steps have to be repeated when resetting the device, suspending, etc (in upcoming pre/post reset support). Thus, a new pair of optional, bus-specific calls i2400m->bus_{setup/release} are introduced. These are used to setup basic infrastructure needed to load firmware onto the device. This commit also updates the SDIO subdriver to use said calls. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

The i2400m driver uses two different bits to distinguish how much the driver is up. i2400m->ready is used to denote that the infrastructure to communicate with the device is up and running. i2400m->updown is used to indicate if 'ready' and the device is up and running, ready to take control and data traffic. However, all this was pretty dirty and not clear, with many open spots where race conditions were present. This commit cleans up the situation by: - documenting the usage of both bits - setting them only in specific, well controlled places (i2400m_dev_start, i2400m_dev_stop) - ensuring the i2400m workqueue can't get in the middle of the setting by flushing it when i2400m->ready is set to zero. This allows the report hook not having to check again for the bit to be set [rx.c:i2400m_report_hook_work()]. - using i2400m->updown to determine if the device is up and running instead of the wimax state in i2400m_dev_reset_handle(). - not loosing missed messages sent by the hardware before i2400m->ready is set. In rx.c, whatever the device sends can be sent to user space over the message pipes as soon as the wimax device is registered, so don't wait for i2400m->ready to be set.

Currently the i2400m driver was starting in a weird way: registering a network device, setting the device up and then registering a WiMAX device. This is an historic artifact, and was causing issues, a some early reports the device sends were getting lost by issue of the wimax_dev not being registered. Fix said situation by doing the wimax device registration in i2400m_setup() after network device registration and before starting thed device. As well, removed spurious setting of the state to UNINITIALIZED; i2400m.dev_start() does that already. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

When the i2400m device needs to wake up an idle WiMAX connection, it schedules a workqueue job to do it. Currently, only when the network stack called the _stop() method this work struct was being cancelled. This has to be done every time the device is stopped. So add a call in i2400m_dev_stop() to take care of such cleanup, which is now wrapped in i2400m_net_wake_stop(). Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Current driver didn't implement the .reset_resume method. The i2400m normally always reset on a comeback from system standby/hibernation. This requires previously applied commits to cache the firmware image file. Signed-off-by: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky@linux.intel.com>

Inaky Perez-Gonzalez authored
In preparation for a reset_resume implementation, have the firmware image be cached in memory when the system goes to suspend and released when out. This is needed in case the device resets during suspend; the driver can't load firmware until resume is completed or bad deadlocks happen. The modus operandi for this was copied from the Orinoco USB driver. The caching is done with a kobject to avoid race conditions when releasing it. The fw loader path is altered only to first check for a cached image before trying to load from disk. A Power Management event notifier is register to call i2400m_fw_cache() or i2400m_fw_uncache() which take care of the actual cache management.

Devices based on the i2400m emit a "barker" (32 bit unsigned) when they boot. This barker is used to select, in the firmware file image, which header should be used to process the rest of the file. This commit implements said support, completing the series started by previous commits. We modify the i2400m_fw_dnload() firmware loading path by adding a call to i2400m_bcf_hdr_find() [new function], in which the right BCF header [as listed in i2400m->fw_hdrs by i2400m_fw_check()] is located. Then this header is fed to i2400m_dnload_init() and i2400m_dnload_finalize(). The changes to i2400m_dnload_finalize() are smaller than they look; they add the bcf_hdr argument and use that instead of bcf. Likewise in i2400m_dnload_init().

The SBCF firmware format has been extended to support extra headers after the main payload. These extra headers are used to sign the firmware code with more than one certificate. This eases up distributing single code images that work in more than one SKU of the device. The changes to support this feature will be spread in a series of commits. This one just adds the support to parse the extra headers and store them in i2400m->fw_hdrs. Coming changes to the loader code will use that to determine which header to upload to the device. The i2400m_fw_check() function now iterates over all the headers and for each, calls i2400m_fw_hdr_check(), which does some basic checks on each header. It then stores the headers for the bootloader code to use. The i2400m_dev_bootstrap() function has been modified to cleanup i2400m->fw_hdrs when done.

The i2400m based devices can get in a sort of a deadlock some times; when they boot, they send a reboot "barker" (a magic number) and then the driver has to echo that same barker to ack reception (echo/ack). Then the device does a final ack by sending an ACK barker. The first time this happens, we don't know ahead of time with barker the device is going to send, as different device models and SKUs will send different barker depending on the EEPROM programming. If the device has sent the barker before the driver has been able to read it, the driver looses, as it doesn't know which barker it has to echo/ack back. With older devices, we tried a couple of combinations and that always worked; but now, with adding support for more, in which we have an unlimited number of new barkers, that is not an option. So we rework said case so that when the device gets stuck, we just cycle through all the known types until one forces the device to send an ack. Otherwise, the driver gives up and aborts.

The i2400m firmware loader is given a list of firmware files to try to load by the probe() function (which can be different based on the device's model / generation). Current code didn't attempt to load, check and try to boot with each file, but just to try to load if off disk. This is limiting in some cases, where we might want to try to load a firmware and if it fails to load onto the device, just fall back to another one. This changes the behaviour so all files are tried for being loaded from disk, checked and uploaded to the device until one suceeds in bringing the device up.

This modifies the bootrom initialization code of the i2400m driver so it can more easily support upcoming hardware. Currently, the code detects two types of barkers (magic numbers) sent by the device to indicate the types of firmware it would take (signed vs non-signed). This schema is extended so that multiple reboot barkers are recognized; upcoming hw will expose more types barkers which will have to match a header in the firmware image before we can load it. For that, a barker database is introduced; the first time the device sends a barker, it is matched in the database. That gives the driver the information needed to decide how to upload the firmware and which types of firmware to use. The database can be populated from module parameters. The execution flow is not altered; a new function (i2400m_is_boot_barker) is introduced to determine in the RX path if the device has sent a boot barker. This function is becoming heavier, so it is put away from the hot reception path [this is why there is some reorganization in sdio-rx.c:i2400ms_rx and usb-notifc.c:i2400mu_notification_grok()]. The documentation on the process has also been updated. All these modifications are heavily based on previous work by Dirk Brandewie <dirk.brandewie@intel.com>.

The i2400m based devices can boot two main types of firmware images: signed and non-signed. Signed images have signature data included that must match that of a certificate stored in the device. Currently the code is making the decission on what type of firmware load (signed vs non-signed) is going to be loaded based on a hardcoded decission in __i2400m_ack_verify(), based on the barker the device sent upon boot. This is not flexible enough as future hardware will emit more barkers; thus the bit has to be set in a place where there is better knowledge of what is going on. This will be done in follow-up commits -- however this patch paves the way for it. So the querying of the mode is packed into i2400m_boot_is_signed(); the main changes are just using i2400m_boot_is_signed() to determine the method to follow and setting i2400m->sboot in i2400m_is_boot_barker(). The modifications in i2400m_dnload_init() and i2400m_dnload_finalize() are just reorganizing the order of the if blocks and thus look larger than they really are.
