An error check would wrongly fire after usb_sg_cancel(). This patch prevents the misfire, and also makes the diagnostic (a) more useful, (b) less scarey.

Differences: speedtouch 330 vs the older speedtouch USB: Vendor and ProdID: no difference (!) Rev: 2.00 vs 0.00 SerialNumber: 0090D0xxxxxx, xxxxxx larger for 330 Interface 1, Alt 2: E: Ad=06(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=64 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=07(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=64 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=87(I) Atr=01(Isoc) MxPS=640 Ivl=1ms vs E: Ad=06(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=32 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=07(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=32 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=87(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=64 Ivl=0ms Interface 1, Alt 3: E: Ad=06(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=64 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=07(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=64 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=87(I) Atr=01(Isoc) MxPS=960 Ivl=1ms vs E: Ad=06(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=16 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=07(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=16 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=87(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=64 Ivl=0ms The current driver works with the speedtouch 330 as long as we use alternate setting 1 on interface 1 rather than alternate 2 as we do now. In fact it makes sense to use alternate 1 for the speedtouch USB as well: the difference is in the max packet size for the out bulk endpoint (0x07): 64 for Alt 1, 32 for Alt 2. Since we send only multiples of 53 bytes (ATM cell size), the potential lower latency for Alt 2 is not really exploitable (think about it!). My tests indicate no harm and perhaps a slight gain by using Alt 1. The manufacturer seems to think so too, since they chose to keep the Alt 1 setting and threw out Alt 2 when designing the 330. So just use Alt 1 for both modems.

Instead of trying to close all ATM connections in the USB disconnect routine, just notify the ATM layer that the ATM device should go down when the last connection is closed. This should be the last big speedtouch stability fix.

The disconnect routine counts the completed_receivers/spare_senders list to see if the completion handler has finished. It then kills the tasklet. However the tasklet was being scheduled after adding to the lists, creating a micro race. So schedule the tasklet before adding to the list.

Let's not forget to update the ATM transmission statistics! And let's not pretend to support AAL0 when we don't.

Eliminate a pile of code that isn't used anymore now the new send code is in place, and make some cosmetic changes.

Finally, here is the new code for sending packets. The ATM layer passes us a skb containing the packet to be sent. We need to encode that as AAL5, and then encapsulate the result in a series of ATM cells. Finally, the result has to be sent to the modem. When we have finished with the skb, we need to pass it back to the ATM layer. The old code did this as follows: (1) Try to do the AAL5 encoding in place in the skb. This fattens the packet, so there is not always enough room. Thus sometimes a new skb is allocated. (2) Try to form the frame of ATM cells in place. This also fattens the packet, so sometimes another skb is allocated here too. (3) send the urb, using the skb as buffer. The main problems with this are: (1) in the urb completion handler, we need to pass the skb back to the ATM layer, or free it ourselves if we allocated a new one. The driver was pretty confused about which to do. Also, error conditions were not always handled right. (2) if the ATM layer wants to close the VCC (connection), any urbs in flight using skbs from that VCC need to be shot down, otherwise the skb may be returned to a VCC that no longer exists when the urb completes. You have to be careful to shoot down the right urb (beware of resubmission), and deal with failures of usb_unlink_urb. (3) There may need to be several memory allocations. The new code sidesteps all this by (1) not sending the skb off with the urb, and (2) not reallocating the skb at all. It simply has a couple of buffers of fixed size: the encoded and encapsulated content of the skb is placed in a buffer. The skb is sent back down to the ATM layer and the buffer is sent off with the urb. Et voila, as they say around here. Now for the complicating factors: (1) if there are no spare buffers, the incoming skb needs to be queued (this was already the case if there were no free urbs). If the VCC is closed, the skbs from that VCC need to be removed from the queue. This is trivial and is done in udsl_usb_cancelsends. (2) The skbs can be quite big. In practice, with the default configuration for pppd, they contain at most 1502 bytes. However pppd can be configured to send up to 16k packets, and who says everyone is using pppd? - the ATM layer allows up to 64k packets. So how big should the buffers be? Not 64k, that's for sure - I've set them to about 6k (128 ATM cells). So there needs to be a way to encode/encapsulate and transfer only part of the skb's payload into a buffer. This is done by udsl_write_cell, which extracts one ATM cell from the skb. The data needed is precalculated by udsl_groom_skb and stored in the skb's cb field. This also means that if there is only a little room left in a buffer, it can still be filled by extracting part of a skb. A nice consequence is that under heavy load (many packets being sent), the driver starts streaming the data to the USB subsystem: every time a send urb completes, there is a completely filled buffer waiting to be sent, so not only is the time between urb completion and resubmission essentially zero, but the amount of data sent in each USB transaction is as big as possible, each buffer containing the contents of several skbs (typically 4). And the best thing is: it actually works!

Add a new encoding routine, udsl_write_cell, which extracts one ATM cell from a skb and writes it, doing the AAL5/ATM encoding on the fly. To make this possible, various bits of info about the AAL5/ATM structure need to be stored beforehand in the skb. This is done by udsl_groom_skb using the udsl_control structure introduced in the previous patch.

Add a new structure, udsl_control. It will live in the sk_buff cb field, so check there is room for it and bail out during module init if not.

Put in infrastructure for the new send code. The only code changes are in the udsl_usb_probe and udsl_usb_disconnect functions, changed to initialize/finalize the new fields (plus cleaned up a bit). I couldn't resist a real code change while I was there: freeing the memory used by the ATM after shutting it down, rather than before! This doesn't make any difference since the shutdown routine doesn't work - so it still oopses. I will fix the shutdown routine later.

This morning's fix for elv_former_request() is causing oopses all over the place in the IO scheduler. Jens, remember that I did try that fix a while ago, and the same happened. I believe it has exposed a new problem at the __make_request/attempt_front_merge level: if attempt_front_merge() actually succeeds, the wrong request gets freed up in elv_merged_request(). It may be best to back this change out until it can be fixed up for real.

The new reset function only waits up to 0.1 ms for the reset to complete, instead of 10 ms. However, it introduces the use of a forced reset flag if a chip doesn't seem cooperative. This fixes cases where until now only reloading the driver or even rebooting the machine would bring the chip back.

Fix the following bugs: - after a watchdog timeout (still a common thing with the Rhine), the driver will fall back to half-duplex, ignoring the auto-negotiation results, killing performance completely until the driver is reloaded; fixed by clearing full_duplex in init_registers() - driver considers only 0x200 for full-duplex option; now 0x220 - duplex code used dev->name before it's initialized; code section moved The full_duplex and force_media related code is quite a mess, but this minimal fix will make the most annoying problems go away. Looking at some other code (e.g. mii.c) it seems to me the interaction between user force, autoneg results and full_duplex/force_media is amazingly complex, so I'll leave it at this for now.
