These are the ioctls for the special-purpose misc device /dev/nosy, the interface to the IEEE 1394 packet sniffer/ protocol analyzer driver. Currently only the numbers 00...02 are in use; let's block a few more for unforeseen use cases. Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

Replace home-grown printk wrapper macros by ones from kernel.h and device.h. Also raise the log level in set_phy_reg() from debug to error because these are really error conditions. Could even be WARN_ON. Lower the log level in the device probe and driver shutdown from notice to info. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

1.) The DMA programs (struct pcl) are PCI-endian = little endian data (except for the 3rd quadlet in a PCL which the controller does not touch). Annotate them as such. Fix all accesses of the PCL to work with big endian CPUs also. Not actually tested, I only have a little endian PC to test with. This includes replacement of a bitfield struct pcl_status by open-coded shift and mask operations. 2.) The two __attribute__ ((packed)) at struct pcl are not really required since it consists of u32/__le32 only, i.e. there will be no padding with or without the attribute. 3.) The received IEEE 1394 data are byteswapped by the controller from IEEE 1394 endian = big endian to PCI endian = little endian because the PCL_BIGENDIAN control bit is set. Therefore annotate the DMA buffer as a __le32 array. Fix the one access of the DMA buffer (the check of the transaction code of link packets) to work with big endian CPUs. Also fix the two accesses of the client bounce buffer (the reading of packet length). 4.) Add a comment to the userspace ABI header that all of the data gets out as little endian data, except for the timestamp which is CPU endian. (We could make it little endian too, but why? Vice versa, an ioctl could be added to dump packet data in big endian byte order...) Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

Fix race between nosy_open() and remove_card() by replacing the unprotected array of card pointers by a mutex-protected list of cards. Make card instances reference-counted and let each client hold a reference. Notify clients about card removal via POLLHUP in poll()'s events bitmap; also let read() fail with errno=ENODEV if the card was removed and everything in the buffer was read.

nosy_start/stop_snoop() are always only called by the ioctl method, i.e. with IRQs enabled. packet_handler() and bus_reset_handler() are always only called by the IRQ handler. Hence neither one needs to track IRQ flags. To underline the call context of packet_handler() and bus_reset_handler(), rename these functions to *_irq_handler().

The required serialization of NOSY_IOC_START and NOSY_IOC_STOP is already provided by the client_list_lock. NOSY_IOC_FILTER does not really require serialization since accesses to tcode_mask are atomic on any sane CPU architecture. Nevertheless, make it explicit that we want this to be atomic by means of client_list_lock (which also surrounds the other tcode_mask access in the IRQ handler). While we are at it, change the type of tcode_mask to u32 for consistency with the user API. NOSY_IOC_GET_STATS does not require serialization against itself. But there is a bug here regarding concurrent updates of the two counters by the IRQ handler. Fix it by taking the client_list_lock in this ioctl too.

This adds the traffic sniffer driver for Texas Instruments PCILynx/ PCILynx2 based cards. The use cases for nosy are analysis of nonstandard protocols and as an aid in development of drivers, applications, or firmwares. Author of the driver is Kristian Høgsberg. Known contributers are Jody McIntyre and Jonathan Woithe. Nosy programs PCILynx chips to operate in promiscuous mode, which is a feature that is not found in OHCI-1394 controllers. Hence, only special hardware as mentioned in the Kconfig help text is suitable for nosy. This is only the kernelspace part of nosy. There is a userspace interface to it, called nosy-dump, proposed to be added into the tools/ subdirectory of the kernel sources in a subsequent change. Kernelspace and userspave component of nosy communicate via a 'misc' character device file called /dev/nosy with a simple ioctl() and read() based protocol, as described by nosy-user.h. The files added here are taken from git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~krh/nosy commit ee29be97 (2009-11-10) with the following changes by Stefan Richter: - Kconfig and Makefile hunks are written from scratch. - Commented out version printk in nosy.c. - Included missing <linux/sched.h>, reported by Stephen Rothwell. "git shortlog nosy{-user.h,.c,.h}" from nosy's git repository: Jonathan Woithe (2): Nosy updates for recent kernels Fix uninitialised memory (needed for 2.6.31 kernel) Kristian Høgsberg (5): Pull over nosy from mercurial repo. Use a misc device instead. Add simple AV/C decoder. Don't break down on big payloads. Set parent device for misc device. As a low-level IEEE 1394 driver, its files are placed into drivers/firewire/ although nosy is not part of the firewire driver stack. I am aware of the following literature from Texas Instruments about PCILynx programming: SCPA020A - PCILynx 1394 to PCI Bus Interface TSB12LV21BPGF Functional Specification SLLA023 - Initialization and Asynchronous Programming of the TSB12LV21A 1394 Device Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de> Acked-by: Kristian Høgsberg <krh@bitplanet.net>

Now we have a set of nested attributes: IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED) IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED) IFLA_VF_MAC IFLA_VF_VLAN IFLA_VF_TX_RATE This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired. Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state. The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like something to consider for 2.6.34.

In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases, this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware that the code is emulating. This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words: I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't necessarily writable.

1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention; we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

Do not blindly access extended configuration space unless we actively know we're on a Moorestown platform. The fixed-size BAR capability lives in the extended configuration space, and thus is not applicable if the configuration space isn't appropriately sized. This fixes booting certain VMware configurations with CONFIG_MRST=y. Moorestown will add a fake PCI-X 266 capability to advertise the presence of extended configuration space.
