868047fcbb85dbb44ddd98c336fef83236a2c06a 12-Sep-2007 Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Fix DAC960 driver on machines which don't support 64-bit DMA

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8942

Use PCI_DMA_* constants instead of own private definitions Fall back to
32-bit DMA mask if a 64-bit one fails

7d12e780e003f93433d49ce78cfedf4b4c52adc5 05-Oct-2006 David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.

(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.

(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

This patch defines:
* a generic boolean-type, named 'bool'
* aliases to 0 and 1, named 'false' and 'true'

Removing colliding definitions of 'bool', 'false' and 'true'.

This patch adds support for a new class of DAC960 controllers. It's based
on the GPLed idac320 driver from IBM for Linux 2.4.18. That driver is a
fork of the 2.4.18 version of DAC960 that adds support for this new type of
controllers (internally called "GEM Series"), that differ from other DAC960
V2 firmware controllers only in the register offsets and removes support
for all others.

This patch instead integrates support for these controllers into the DAC960
driver.

Thanks to Anders Norrbring for pointing me to the idac320 driver and
testing this patch.

No Signed-Off: line because all code is either copy & pasted from IBM's
idac320 driver or support for other controllers in the 2.6 DAC960 driver.

Note: the really odd formating matches the rest of the DAC960 driver.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
