      usb: Move definition of USB_EHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO et al. out side of the ifs. · 900e0621
      David Daney authored
      When CONFIG_USB_SUPPORT is not selected we get things like:
      
      scripts/kconfig/mconf Kconfig
      warning: (MIPS_SEAD3 && PMC_MSP && CPU_CAVIUM_OCTEON) selects USB_EHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO which has unmet direct dependencies (USB_SUPPORT && USB)
      
      It is much cleaner to make the various system Kconfigs select
      USB_EHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO rather than move the system config
      information into USB's Kconfig, but the warnings are annoying.
      
      Eliminate the warning by moving the definition of
      USB_EHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO outside of all the Kconfig if statements.
      While we are at it move USB_OHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_DESC,
      USB_OHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO, USB_OHCI_LITTLE_ENDIAN and
      USB_EHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_DESC too, as they could very well suffer similar
      problems for other systems.
      
      Get rid of the redundant "default n" in USB_OHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_DESC and
      USB_OHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO

      USBNET: ax88179_178a: enable tso if usb host supports sg dma · 3804fad4
      Ming Lei authored
      This patch enables 'can_dma_sg' flag for ax88179_178a device
      if the attached host controller supports building packet from
      discontinuous buffers(DMA SG is possible), so TSO can be enabled
      and skb fragment buffers can be passed to usb stack via urb->sg
      directly.
      
      With the patch, system CPU utilization decreased ~50% and throughput
      increased by ~10% when doing iperf client test on one ARM A15 dual
      core board.

      USB: EHCI: improve interrupt qh unlink · 9118f9eb
      Ming Lei authored
      ehci-hcd currently unlinks an interrupt QH when it becomes empty, that
      is, after its last URB completes.  This works well because in almost
      all cases, the completion handler for an interrupt URB resubmits the
      URB; therefore the QH doesn't become empty and doesn't get unlinked.
      
      When we start using tasklets for URB completion, this scheme won't work
      as well.  The resubmission won't occur until the tasklet runs, which
      will be some time after the completion is queued with the tasklet.
      During that delay, the QH will be empty and so will be unlinked
      unnecessarily.
      
      To prevent this problem, this patch adds a 5-ms time delay before empty
      interrupt QHs are unlinked.  Most often, during that time the interrupt
      URB will be resubmitted and thus we can avoid unlinking the QH.

      USB: EHCI: improve ehci_endpoint_disable · 35371e4f
      Ming Lei authored
      The patch does the below improvement:
      
      - think QH_STATE_COMPLETING as unlinking state since all URBs on the
      endpoint should be in unlinking or unlinked when doing endpoint_disable()
      
      - add "WARN_ON(!list_empty(&qh->qtd_list));" if qh->qh_state is
      QH_STATE_LINKED because there shouldn't be any active transfer in qh
      
      - when qh->qh_state is QH_STATE_LINKED, the QH(async or periodic)
      should be in its corresponding list, so the search through the async
      list isn't necessary.
      
      - unlink periodic QH to speed up unlinking if the QH is in linked
      state
      
      Basically, only the last one is related with this patchset because
      the assumption of "periodic qh self-unlinks on empty" isn't true
      any more when we introduce unlink-wait for periodic qh.

      USB: URB documentation: claim complete() will be run with IRQs enabled · 85721d45
      Ming Lei authored
      There is no good reason to run complete() in hard interrupt
      disabled context.
      
      After switch to run complete() in tasklet, we will enable local IRQs
      when calling complete() since we can do it at that time.
      
      Even though we still disable IRQs now when calling complete()
      in tasklet, the URB documentation is updated to claim complete()
      will be run in tasklet context and local IRQs will be enabled, so
      that USB drivers can know the change and avoid one deadlock caused
      by: assume IRQs disabled in complete() and call spin_lock() to
      hold lock which might be acquired in interrupt context.
      
      Current spin_lock() usages in drivers' complete() will be cleaned
      up at the same time, and once the cleanup is finished, local IRQs
      will be enabled when calling complete() in tasklet.
      
      Also fix description about type of usb_complete_t, and remove the
      advice of running completion handler in tasklet for decreasing
      system latency.

      USB: HCD: support giveback of URB in tasklet context · 94dfd7ed
      Ming Lei authored
      This patch implements the mechanism of giveback of URB in
      tasklet context, so that hardware interrupt handling time for
      usb host controller can be saved much, and HCD interrupt handling
      can be simplified.
      
      Motivations:
      
      1), on some arch(such as ARM), DMA mapping/unmapping is a bit
      time-consuming, for example: when accessing usb mass storage
      via EHCI on pandaboard, the common length of transfer buffer is 120KB,
      the time consumed on DMA unmapping may reach hundreds of microseconds;
      even on A15 based box, the time is still about scores of microseconds
      
      2), on some arch, reading DMA coherent memoery is very time-consuming,
      the most common example is usb video class driver[1]
      
      3), driver's complete() callback may do much things which is driver
      specific, so the time is consumed unnecessarily in hardware irq context.
      
      4), running driver's complete() callback in hardware irq context causes
      that host controller driver has to release its lock in interrupt handler,
      so reacquiring the lock after return may busy wait a while and increase
      interrupt handling time. More seriously, releasing the HCD lock makes
      HCD becoming quite complicated to deal with introduced races.
      
      So the patch proposes to run giveback of URB in tasklet context, then
      time consumed in HCD irq handling doesn't depend on drivers' complete and
      DMA mapping/unmapping any more, also we can simplify HCD since the HCD
      lock isn't needed to be released during irq handling.
      
      The patch should be reasonable and doable:
      
      1), for drivers, they don't care if the complete() is called in hard irq
      context or softirq context
      
      2), the biggest change is the situation in which usb_submit_urb() is called
      in complete() callback, so the introduced tasklet schedule delay might be a
      con, but it shouldn't be a big deal:
      
      	- control/bulk asynchronous transfer isn't sensitive to schedule
      	  delay
      
      	- the patch schedules giveback of periodic URBs using
      	  tasklet_hi_schedule, so the introduced delay should be very
      	  small
      
      	- for ISOC transfer, generally, drivers submit several URBs
      	  concurrently to avoid interrupt delay, so it is OK with the
      	  little schedule delay.
      
      	- for interrupt transfer, generally, drivers only submit one URB
      	  at the same time, but interrupt transfer is often used in event
      	  report, polling, ... situations, and a little delay should be OK.
      
      Considered that HCDs may optimize on submitting URB in complete(), the
      patch may cause the optimization not working, so introduces one flag to mark
      if the HCD supports to run giveback URB in tasklet context. When all HCDs
      are ready, the flag can be removed.

      NetLabel has the ability to selectively assign network security labels
      to outbound traffic based on either the LSM's "domain" (different for
      each LSM), the network destination, or a combination of both.  Depending
      on the type of traffic, local or forwarded, and the type of traffic
      selector, domain or address based, different hooks are used to label the
      traffic; the goal being minimal overhead.
      
      Unfortunately, there is a bug such that a system using NetLabel domain
      based traffic selectors does not correctly label outbound local traffic
      that is not assigned to a socket.  The issue is that in these cases
      the associated NetLabel hook only looks at the address based selectors
      and not the domain based selectors.  This patch corrects this by
      checking both the domain and address based selectors so that the correct
      labeling is applied, regardless of the configuration type.
      
      In order to acomplish this fix, this patch also simplifies some of the
      NetLabel domainhash structures to use a more common outbound traffic
      mapping type: struct netlbl_dommap_def.  This simplifies some of the code
      in this patch and paves the way for further simplifications in the
      future.
