There may be cases (most obviously, sysfs-writable charp parameters) where a module needs to prevent sysfs access to parameters. Rather than express this in terms of a big lock, the functions are expressed in terms of what they protect against. This is clearer, esp. if the implementation changes to a module-level or even param-level lock.

Instead of using a "I kmalloced this" flag, we keep track of the kmalloced strings and use that list to check if we need to kfree (in practice, the list is very short). This means that kparams can be const again, and plugs a leak. This is important for drivers/usb/gadget/nokia.c which gets modprobe/rmmod'ed frequently on the N9000.

This is more kernel-ish, saves some space, and also allows us to expand the ops without breaking all the callers who are happy for the new members to be NULL. The few places which defined their own param types are changed to the new scheme (more which crept in recently fixed in following patches). Since we're touching them anyway, we change get() and set() to take a const struct kernel_param (which they really are). This causes some harmless warnings until we fix them (in following patches). To reduce churn, module_param_call creates the ops struct so the callers don't have to change (and casts the functions to reduce warnings). The modern version which takes an ops struct is called module_param_cb.

An audit by Dongdong Deng revealed that most driver-author-written param calls don't handle val == NULL (which happens when parameters are specified with no =, eg "foo" instead of "foo=1"). The only real case to use this is boolean, so handle it specially for that case and remove a source of bugs for everyone else.

'make htmldocs' has a fatal error when processing libata.xml, as seen below. The string "Example patterns:" (or any string with "example.*:" in it AFAIK) causes some part of the doc generation tool chain to try to produce an <informalexample> block without a beginning <para>, but there is an ending </para> generated, which throws things out of kilter. I don't even know where (what program) this is happening in. I searched in docproc and xmlto and in some XML stylesheets without finding anything. If anyone can give me pointers about this, please do. Until this is fixed, let's just spell "Example" as "Sample" and match up the double quotation marks while there.

As David VomLehn points out, it was possible to receive an interrupt before clearing the free-urb flag which could lead to the urb being incorrectly marked as busy. For the same reason, move tx_bytes accounting so that it will never be negative. Note that the free-flags set and clear operations do not need any additional locking as they are manipulated while USB_SERIAL_WRITE_BUSY is set.

This patch fixes a race condition in two utility routines related to the removal/unlinking of urbs from an anchor. If two threads are concurrently accessing the same anchor, both could end up with the same urb - thinking they are the exclusive owner. Alan Stern pointed out a related issue in usb_unlink_anchored_urbs: "The URB isn't removed from the anchor until it completes (as a by-product of completion, in fact), which might not be for quite some time after the unlink call returns. In the meantime, the subroutine will keep trying to unlink it, over and over again."

Tell the USB core that we can do DMA directly (instead of needing it to memory-map the buffers for PIO). If the xHCI host supports 64-bit addresses, set the DMA mask accordingly. Otherwise indicate the host can handle 32-bit DMA addresses. This improves performance because the USB core doesn't have to spend time remapping buffers in high memory into the 32-bit address range.

To tell the host controller that there are transfers on the endpoint rings, we need to ring the endpoint doorbell. This is a PCI MMIO write, which can be delayed until another register read is queued. The previous code would flush the doorbell write by reading the doorbell register after the write. This may take time, and it's not necessary to force the host controller to know about the transfers right away. Don't flush the doorbell register writes.

The interrupter register set includes a register that says whether interrupts are pending for each event ring (the IP bit). Each MSI-X vector will get its own interrupter set with separate IP bits. The status register includes an "Event Interrupt (EINT)" bit that is set when an IP bit is set in any of the interrupters. When PCI interrupts are used, the EINT bit exactly mirrors the IP bit in the single interrupter set, and it is a waste of time to check both registers when trying to figure out if the xHC interrupted or another device on the shared IRQ line interrupted. Only check the IP bit to reduce register reads. The IP bit is automatically cleared by the xHC when MSI or MSI-X is enabled. It doesn't make sense to read that register to check for shared interrupts (since MSI and MSI-X aren't shared). It also doesn't make sense to write to that register to clear the IP bit, since it is cleared by the hardware. We can tell whether MSI or MSI-X is enabled by looking at the irq number in hcd->irq. If it's -1, we know MSI or MSI-X is enabled. Signed-off-by: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Now that the event handler functions no longer use xhci_set_hc_event_deq() to update the event ring dequeue pointer, that function is not used by anything in xhci-ring.c. Move that function into xhci-mem.c and make it static. Signed-off-by: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The xHCI specification suggests that writing the hardware event ring dequeue pointer register too often can be an expensive operation for the xHCI hardware to manage. It suggests minimizing the number of writes to that register. Originally, the driver wrote the event ring dequeue pointer after each event was processed. Depending on how the event ring moderation register is set up and how fast the transfers are completing, there may be several events processed for each interrupt. This patch makes the hardware event ring dequeue pointer be written only once per interrupt. Make the transfer event handler and port status event handler only write the software event ring dequeue pointer. Move the updating of the hardware event ring dequeue pointer into the interrupt function. Move the contents of xhci_set_hc_event_deq() into the interrupt handler. The interrupt handler must clear the event handler busy flag, so it might as well also write the dequeue pointer to the same register. This eliminates two 32-bit PCI reads and two 32-bit PCI writes.

Remove a duplicate register read of the interrupt pending register from xhci_irq(). Also, remove waiting on the posted write of that register. The host will see it eventually. It will probably read the register itself before deciding whether to interrupt the system again, forcing the posted write to complete.
