ed30c26ee8 ieee1394: Consolidate driver registering
This patch consolidates some bookkeeping for driver registering. It
closely models what pci_register_driver() does. The main addition is
that the owner of the driver is set, so we get a proper symlink
for /sys/bus/ieee1394/driver/*/module.

Also moves setting of name and bus type into nodemgr. Because of this,
we can remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL for ieee1394_bus_type, since it's now
only used in ieee1394.ko.

8252bbb136 ieee1394: nodemgr: fix deadlock in shutdown
If "modprobe ohci1394" was quickly followed by "modprobe -r ohci1394",
say with 1 second pause in between, the modprobe -r got stuck in
uninterruptible sleep in kthread_stop.  At the same time the knodemgrd
slept uninterruptibly in bus_rescan_devices_helper.  That's because
driver_detach took the semaphore of the PCI device and
bus_rescan_devices_helper wanted to take the semaphore of the FireWire
host device's parent, which is the same semaphore. This was a regression
since Linux 2.6.16, commit bf74ad5bc4,
"Hold the device's parent's lock during probe and remove".

The fix (or workaround) adds a dummy driver to the hpsb_host device. Now
bus_rescan_devices_helper won't scan the host device anymore.  This
doesn't hurt since we have no drivers which will bind to these devices
and it is unlikely that there will ever be such a driver.  The dummy
driver is befittingly presented as a representation of ieee1394 itself.

b07375b155 ieee1394: nodemgr: revise semaphore protection of driver core data
- The list "struct class.children" is supposed to be protected by
   class.sem, not by class.subsys.rwsem.

 - nodemgr_remove_uds() iterated over nodemgr_ud_class.children without
   proper protection.  This was never observed as a bug since the code
   is usually only accessed by knodemgrd.  All knodemgrds are currently
   globally serialized.  But userspace can trigger this code too by
   writing to /sys/bus/ieee1394/destroy_node.

 - Clean up access to the FireWire bus type's subsys.rwsem:  Access it
   uniformly via ieee1394_bus_type.  Shrink rwsem protected regions
   where possible.  Expand them where necessary.  The latter wasn't a
   problem so far because knodemgr is globally serialized.

This should harden the interaction of ieee1394 with sysfs and lay ground
for deserialized operation of multiple knodemgrds and for implementation
of subthreads for parallelized scanning and probing.

9951903e61 ieee1394: shrink tlabel pools, remove tpool semaphores
This patch reduces the size of struct hpsb_host and also removes
semaphores from ieee1394_transactions.c.  On i386, struct hpsb_host
shrinks from 10656 bytes to 6688 bytes.  This is accomplished by
 - using a single wait_queue for hpsb_get_tlabel instead of many
   instances of semaphores,
 - using a single lock to serialize access to all tlabel pools (the
   protected code regions are small, i.e. lock contention very low),
 - omitting the sysfs attribute tlabels_allocations.

Drawback:  In the rare case that a process needs to sleep because all
transaction labels for the node are temporarily exhausted, it is also
woken up if a tlabel for a different node became free, checks for an
available tlabel, and is put to sleep again.  The check is not costly
and the situation occurs extremely rarely.  (Tlabels are typically
only exhausted if there was no context switch to the khpsbpkt thread
which recycles tlables.)  Therefore the benefit of reduced tpool size
outweighs this drawback.

The sysfs attributes tlabels_free and tlabels_mask are not compiled
anymore unless CONFIG_IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG is set.

The by far biggest member of struct hpsb_host, the struct csr_control
csr (5272 bytes on i386), is now placed at the end of struct hpsb_host.

Note, hpsb_get_tlabel calls the macro wait_event_interruptible with a
condition argument which has a side effect (allocation of a tlabel and
manipulation of the packet).  This side effect happens only if the
condition is true.  The patch relies on wait_event_interruptible not
evaluating the condition again after it became true.

cab8d154e2 [PATCH] ieee1394: nodemgr: convert nodemgr_serialize semaphore to mutex
Another trivial sem2mutex conversion.

Side note:  nodemgr_serialize's purpose, when introduced in linux1394's
revision 529 in July 2002, was to protect several data structures which
are now largely handled by or together with Linux' driver core and are
now protected by the LDM's own mechanisms.  It may very well be possible
to remove this mutex now.  But fully parallelized node scanning is on
our long-term TODO list anyway; the mutex will certainly go away then.

Note, the bus's attribute ignore_drivers is only relevant to newly added
units, not to present or suspended or resuming units.  Those have their
own attribute ignore_driver.

40fd89cc54 [PATCH] ieee1394: nodemgr: do not spawn kernel_thread for sysfs rescan
nodemgr.c::fw_set_rescan() is used to re-run the driver core over
nodemgr's representation of unit directories in order to initiate
protocol driver probes.  It is initiated via write access to one of
nodemgr's sysfs attributes.  The purpose is to attach drivers to
units after switching a unit's ignore_driver attribute from 1 to 0.

It is not really necessary to fork a kernel_thread for this job.  The
call to kernel_thread() can be eliminated to avoid the deprecated API
and to simplify the code a bit.

d7530a1e76 [PATCH] ieee1394: fix cosmetic problem in speed probe
If ieee1394.h::IEEE1394_SPEED_MAX is bigger than the actual speed of an
1394b host adapter and the speed to another 1394b node was probed, a
bigger speed than actually used was kept in host->speed[n].  The only
resulting problem so far was sbp2 displaying bogus values in the syslog,
e.g. S3200 for actual S800 connections if IEEE1394_SPEED_MAX was S3200.
But other high-level drivers which access this field could get into more
trouble.  (Eth1394 is the only other in-tree driver which does so.  It
seems it is not affected.)

Nodemgr now clips this value according to the host adapter's link speed.

A pointer expression in nodemgr_check_speed is also changed for clarity.

647dcb5fae ieee1394: support for slow links or slow 1394b phy ports
Add support for the following types of hardware:
 + nodes that have a link speed < PHY speed
 + 1394b PHYs that are less than S800 capable
 + 1394b/1394a adapter cable between two 1394b PHYs
Also, S1600 and S3200 are now supported if IEEE1394_SPEED_MAX is raised.

A probing function is added to nodemgr's config ROM fetching routine
which adjusts the allowable speed if an access problem was encountered.
Pros and Cons of the approach:
 + minimum code footprint to support this less widely used hardware
 + nearly no overhead for unaffected hardware
 - ineffective before nodemgr began to read the ROM of affected nodes
 - ineffective if ieee1394 is loaded with disable_nodemgr=1
The speed map CSRs which are published to the bus are not touched by the
patch.

51c1d80e92 ieee1394: run high-level updates before high-level probes
After a bus reset, let nodemgr call high-level update hooks first for nodes
which do not need to be probed.  The main benefit is for a bus with more
than one SBP-2 device:  SBP-2 reconnects will be performed before SBP-2
logins, thus have a much higher chance to succeed, and their SCSI devices
will not be blocked much longer than necessary.  This was demonstrated for
Linux 2.4 by Dave Cinege a while ago.

A better approach would be to perform time-consuming probes in parallel by a
subthread.  I actually plan to implement this for sbp2 but it may take a
while to get that done and tested.  Until then, this tweak is a huge
improvement for users with multiple SBP-2 devices.

suspend/resume callbacks to call the old PM v1 suspend/resume
callbacks three times with each level in order so that existing
drivers continued to work.

Since this is obsolete infrastructure which is no longer necessary,
we can remove it.  Here's an (untested) patch to do exactly that.

Providing a MODALIAS= enviroment variable with the content above will fix it.

1934b8b656 [PATCH] Sync up ieee-1394
Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being
intialized to 0, etc).

There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling).
Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly.  We've
also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the
sake of cleanliness in the kernel.  However, instead of removing them
completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed
them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree
that use our API for driver development.

The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC
conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers.  The new conversions handled
directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2.  This patch
reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire
disks and dvd drives again.

We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside
of the main kernel tree.  We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's
handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.

3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
