commit 00d8689b upstream. Originally, the I2C controller supported by the i2c-mv64xxx driver requires a lot of software support: an interrupt is generated at each step of an I2C transaction (after the start bit, after sending the address, etc.) and the driver is in charge of re-programming the I2C controller to do the next step of the I2C transaction. This explains the fairly complex state machine that the driver has. On Marvell Armada XP and later processors (Armada 375, 38x, etc.), the I2C controller was extended with a part called the "I2C Bridge", which allows to offload the I2C transaction completely to the hardware. Initial support for this mechanism was added in commit 930ab3d4 ("i2c: mv64xxx: Add I2C Transaction Generator support"). However, the implementation done in this commit has two related issues, which this commit fixes by completely changing how the offload implementation is done: * SMBus read transfers, where there is one write to select the register immediately followed in the same transaction by one read, were making the processor hang. This was easier visible on the Marvell Armada XP WRT1900AC platform using a driver for an I2C LED controller, or on other Armada XP platforms by using a simple 'i2cget' command to read an I2C EEPROM. * The implementation was based on the fact that the offload engine was re-programmed to transfer each message of an I2C xfer: this meant that each message sent with the offload engine was starting with a normal I2C start sequence. However, the I2C subsystem assumes that all messages belonging to the same xfer will use the so-called "repeated start" so that the entire I2C xfer is seen as one transfer by the I2C devices and cannot be interrupt by other I2C masters on the same bus. In fact, the "I2C Bridge" allows to offload three types of xfer: - xfer of one write message - xfer of one read message - xfer of one write message followed by one read message For all other situations, we have to fallback to not using the "I2C Bridge" in order to get proper I2C semantics. Therefore, this commit reworks the offload implementation to put it not at the message level, but at the xfer level: in the mv64xxx_i2c_xfer() function, we decide if the transaction can be offloaded (in which case it is handled by the mv64xxx_i2c_offload_xfer() function), or otherwise it is handled by the slow path (implemented in the existing mv64xxx_i2c_execute_msg()). This allows to simplify the state machine, which no longer needs to have any state related to the offload implementation: the offload implementation is now completely separated from the slow path (with the exception of the interrupt handler, of course). In summary: - mv64xxx_i2c_can_offload() will analyze an I2C xfer and decided of the "I2C Bridge" can be used to offload it or not. - mv64xxx_i2c_offload_xfer() will actually program the "I2C Bridge" to offload one xfer (of either one or two messages), and block using mv64xxx_i2c_wait_for_completion() until the xfer completes. - The interrupt handler mv64xxx_i2c_intr() is modified to push the offload related code to a separate function, mv64xxx_i2c_intr_offload(). It will take care of reading the received data if needed.
