When a descriptor was added or removed to the local node's config ROM,
userspace clients which had a local node's /dev/fw* open did not receive
any fw_cdev_event_bus_reset for poll()/read() consumption.
The cause was that the core-device.c facility which re-reads the config
ROM of the bus reset initiator node missed to call the fw_device update
function. The fw_units are destroyed and newly added, but their parent
stays and needs to be updated.

The FW_ISO_ constants of the in-kernel API of firewire-core and
FW_CDEV_ISO_ constants of the userspace API of firewire-core have
nothing to do with each other --- except that the core-cdev.c

Hence put some compile-time assertions into core-cdev.c. It's lame but
I prefer it over including the userspace API header into the kernelspace

The problem:
A target-like userspace driver, e.g. AV/C target or SBP-2/3 target,
needs to be able to act as responder and requester. In the latter role,
it needs to send requests to nods from which it received requests. This
is currently impossible because fw_cdev_event_request lacks information
about sender node ID.

Libffado + libraw1394 + firewire-core is currently unable to drive two
or more audio devices on the same bus.
Reported-by: Arnold Krille <arnold@arnoldarts.de>
This is because libffado requires destination node ID of FCP requests
and sender node ID of FCP responses to match. It even prohibits
libffado from working with a bus on which libraw1394 opens a /dev/fw* as
default ioctl device that does not correspond with the audio device.
This is because libraw1394 does not receive the sender node ID from the
kernel.
Moreover, fw_cdev_event_request makes it impossible to tell unicast and
broadcast write requests apart.
The fix:
Add a replacement of struct fw_cdev_event_request request, boringly
called struct fw_cdev_event_request2. The new event will be sent to a
userspace client instead of the old one if the client claims
compatibility with <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI version 4 or later.
libraw1394 needs to be extended to make use of the new event, in order
to properly support libffado and other FCP or address range mapping
users who require correct sender node IDs.
Further notes:
While we are at it, change back the range of possible values of
fw_cdev_event_request.tcode to 0x0...0xb like in ABI version <= 3.
The preceding change "firewire: expose extended tcode of incoming lock
requests to (userspace) drivers" expanded it to 0x0...0x17 which could
catch sloppily coded clients by surprise. The extended range of codes
is only used in the new fw_cdev_event_request2.tcode.
Jay and I also suggested an alternative approach to fix the ABI for
incoming requests: Add an FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_REQUEST_INFO ioctl which can
be called after reception of an fw_cdev_event_request, before issuing of
the closing FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_RESPONSE ioctl. The new ioctl would reveal
the vital information about a request that fw_cdev_event_request lacks.
Jay showed an implementation of this approach.
The former event approach adds 27 LOC of rather trivial code to
core-cdev.c, the ioctl approach 34 LOC, some of which is nontrivial.
The ioctl approach would certainly also add more LOC to userspace
programs which require the expanded information on inbound requests.
This approach is probably only on the lighter-weight side in case of
clients that want to be compatible with kernels that lack the new
capability, like libraw1394. However, the code to be added to such
libraw1394-like clients in case of the event approach is a straight-
forward additional switch () case in its event handler.

libraw1394 v2.0.0...v2.0.5 takes FW_CDEV_VERSION from an externally
installed header file and uses it to declare its own implementation
level in FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO. This is wrong; it should set the real
version for which it was actually written.
If we add features to the kernel ABI that require the kernel to check
a client's implementation level, we can not trust the client version if
it was set from FW_CDEV_VERSION.
Hence freeze FW_CDEV_VERSION at the current value (no damage has been
done yet), clearly document FW_CDEV_VERSION as a dummy version and what
clients are expected to do with fw_cdev_get_info.version, and use a new
defined constant (which is not placed into the exported header file) as
kernel implementation level.
Note, in order to check in client program source code which features are
present in an externally installed linux/firewire-cdev.h, use
preprocessor directives like
#ifdef FW_CDEV_IOC_ALLOCATE_ISO_RESOURCE
or
#ifdef FW_CDEV_EVENT_ISO_RESOURCE_ALLOCATED

If a request comes in to an address range managed by a userspace driver
i.e. <linux/firewire-cdev.h> client, the card instance of request and
response may differ from the card instance of the client device.
Therefore we need to take a reference of the card until the response was
sent.
I thought about putting the reference counting into core-transaction.c,
but the various high-level drivers besides cdev clients (firewire-net,
firewire-sbp2, firedtv) use the card pointer in their fw_address_handler
address_callback method only to look up devices of which they already
hold the necessary references. So this seems to be a specific
firewire-cdev issue which is better addressed locally.
We do not need the reference
- in case of FCP_REQUEST or FCP_RESPONSE requests because then the
firewire-core will send the split transaction response for us
already in the context of the request handler,
- if it is the same card as the client device's because we hold a
card reference indirectly via teh client->device reference.
To keep things simple, we take the reference nevertheless.

While termination of inbound transcations at card removal could be
implemented, it is IMO not worth the effort. Currently, the effect of
holding a reference of a card that has been removed is to block the
process that called the pci_remove of the card. This is
- either a user process ran by root. Root can find and kill processes
that have /dev/fw* open, if desired.
- a kernel thread (which one?) in case of hot removal of a PCCard or
ExpressCard.
The latter case could be a problem indeed. firewire-core's card
shutdown and card release should probably be improved not to block in
shutdown, just to defer freeing of memory until release.
This is not a new problem though; the same already always happens with
the client->device->card without the need of inbound transactions or
other special conditions involved, other than the client not closing the
file.
Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
My box has two firewire cards in it: card0 and card1.
My application opens /dev/fw0 (card 0) and allocates an address space.
The core makes the address space available on both cards.
Along comes the remote device, which sends a READ_QUADLET_REQUEST to
card1. The request gets passed up to my application, which calls
ioctl_send_response().
ioctl_send_response() then calls fw_send_response() with card0,
because that's the card it's bound to.
Card0's driver drops the response, because it isn't part of
a transaction that it has outstanding.
So in core-cdev: handle_request(), we need to stash the
card of the inbound request in the struct inbound_transaction_resource and
use that card to send the response to.
The hard part will be refcounting the card correctly
so it can't get deallocated while we hold a pointer to it.
Here's a trivial patch, which does not do the card refcounting, but at
least demonstrates what the problem is.
Note that we can't depend on the fact that the core-cdev:client
structure holds a card open, because in this case the card it holds
open is not the card the request came in on.
..and there's no way for the core to tell cdev "this card is gone,
kill any inbound transactions on it", while cdev holds the transaction
open until userspace issues a SEND_RESPONSE ioctl, which may be a very,
very long time. But when it does, it calls fw_send_response(), which
will dereference the card...
So how unhappy are we about userspace potentially holding a fw_card
open forever?

An older Sony camcorder (Sony DCR-TRV25) which implements 1394-1995 IRM
but neither 1394a-2000 IRM nor BM was now found to cause an

- Camcorder becomes root node when plugged in, hence gets IRM role.
- firewire-core successfully contends for BM role, proceeds to perform
gap count optimization and resets the bus.
- Sony camcorder ignores presence of a BM (against the spec, this is
a firmware bug), performs its idea of gap count optimization and
resets the bus.
- Preceding two steps are repeated endlessly, bus never settles,
regular I/O is practically impossible.

The <linux/firewire-cdev.h> character device file ABI (i.e. /dev/fw*
character device file interface) does not make any use of lseek(),
pread(), pwrite() (or any kind of write() at all).
Use nonseekable_open() and, redundantly, set file_operations.llseek to
no_llseek to remove any doubt whether the BKL-grabbing default_llseek
handler is used. (Also shuffle file_operations initialization according
to the order of handler definitions.)

Rather than having the arbitrary msleep(2) pause, let read_phy_reg()
loop until the link--phy access was finished.
Factor write_phy_reg() out of ohci_update_phy_reg() and of
read_paged_phy_reg() and let it loop too until the link--phy access was
finished.
Like in the older ohci1394 driver, a timeout of 100 milliseconds is
chosen. Unlike the old driver, we sleep instead of busy-wait in each
waiting loop iteration. Instead of a loop, the waiting could probably
also be implemented interrupt driven, but why bother. It would require
up and running interrupt handling before the link was fully configured
and enabled.
Also modify functions a bit: Error return and value return can be
combined in read_phy_reg() since the domain of values is only u8.
Likewise in read_paged_phy_reg().

A userspace client got to see uninitialized stack-allocated memory if it
specified an _IOC_READ type of ioctl and an argument size larger than
expected by firewire-core's ioctl handlers (but not larger than the
core's union ioctl_arg).
Fix this by clearing the requested buffer size to zero, but only at _IOR
ioctls. This way, there is almost no runtime penalty to legitimate
ioctls. The only legitimate _IOR is FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_CYCLE_TIMER with 12
or 16 bytes to memset.
[Another way to fix this would be strict checking of argument size (and
possibly direction) vs. command number. However, we then need a lookup
table, and we need to allow for slight size deviations in case of 32bit
userland on 64bit kernel.]

The definition of struct fw_cdev_iso_packet seems to imply that the
header_length must be quadlet-aligned, and in fact, specifying an
unaligned header has never really worked when using multiple packet

rounding the header_length _down_, so the last one to three bytes of the

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The driver match strategy was:

- If that was a miss, match vendor from the root directory and
model/specifier/version of the unit directory.
This was inconsistent with how the modalias string was constructed
until recently (take vendor/model from root directory and specifier/
version from unit directory). It was also inconsistent with how it is
done since the parent commit:
- Use vendor/model/specifier/version of the unit directory if possible,
- fall back to one or more of vendor/model/specifier/version from the
root directory depending on which ones are not present at the unit
directory.
Fix this inconsistency by sharing the ROM scanner function between
modalias printer function and driver match function.

The modalias string of devices that represent units on a FireWire node
did not show Module_ID entries within unit directories. This was
because firewire-core searched only the root directory of the
configuration ROM for a Model_ID entry.
We now search first the root directory, then the unit directory. IOW
honor a unit directory's Model_ID if present, otherwise fall back to the
root directory's model ID (if present).
Furthermore, apply the same change to Vendor_ID. This had the same
issue but it was less apparent because most devices provide Vendor_ID
only in the root directory.
And finally, also use this strategy for the remaining two IDs in the
modalias, Specifier_ID and Version. It does not actually make sense to
look for them elsewhere than in the unit directory because they are
mandatory there. However, a uniform search order simplifies the
implementation and has no adverse affect in practice.
Side notes:
- The older counterpart of this, nodemgr.c of ieee1394, looked for
Vendor_ID first in the root directory, then in the unit directory,
and for Model_ID only in the unit directory.
- There is a single mainline driver which requires Vendor_ID and
Model_ID --- the firedtv driver. This one worked because FireDTVs
provide Vendor_ID in the root directory and Model_ID identically in
root directory and unit directory.
- Apart from firedtv, there are currently no drivers known to me
(including userspace drivers) that look at the Vendor_ID or Model_ID
of the modalias.

This bug was present in firewire-ohci since day one: The number of
available isochronous receive DMA contexts was mixed up with that of
available isochronous transmit DMA contexts.
This is harmless on a few chips which offer the same number of contexts
in both directions, but most chips nowadays implement only the standard
minimum of 4 IR contexts, but 8 IT contexts. If a user attempted to run
a lot of IR contexts at once, results with more than four were therefore

ignore that one block instead of refusing to add the device
representation. That way, upper layers (kernelspace or userspace
drivers) might still be able to use the device to some degree.
That's better than total inaccessibility of the device. Worse, the core

could only be debugged by feeding a firewire-ohci debug logging session

The Panasonic AG-DV2500 tape deck contains an invalid entry in its
configuration ROM root directory: A leaf pointer with the undefined key
ID 0 and an offset that points way out of the standard config ROM area.
This caused firewire-core to dismiss the device with the generic log
message "giving up on config rom for node id...", after which it was of
course impossible to access the tape deck with dvgrab or any other
program. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449252#c29
The fix is to simply ignore this invalid ROM entry and proceed to read
the valid rest of the ROM. There is a catch though: When the kernel
later iterates over the ROM, it would be nasty having to check again for
such too large ROM offsets. Therefore we manipulate the defective or
unsupported ROM entry to become a harmless immediate entry that won't
have any side effects later (an entry with the value 0x00000000).

Instead of a fix, remove Bus_Time register support altogether. The spec
requires all cycle master capable nodes to implement this (all Linux
nodes are cycle master capable) while it also says that it "may" be
initialized by the bus manager or by the IRM standing in for a bus
manager. (Neither Linux' firewire-core nor ieee1394 nodemgr implement
this.)
Since we cannot rely on Bus_Time having been initialized by a bus
manager, it is better to return an error instead of a nonsensical value
on a read request to Bus_Time.
Alternatively, we could fix the Bus_Time read integrity bug _and_
implement (a) cycle master's write support of the register as well as
(b) bus manager's Bus_Time initialization service, i.e. preservation of
the Bus_Time when the cycle master node of a bus changes. However, that
would be quite some code for a feature that is unreliable to begin with
and very likely unused in practice.

In isochronous transmit DMA descriptors, link the skip address pointer
back to the descriptor itself. When a cycle is lost, the controller
will send the packet in the next cycle, instead of terminating the
entire DMA program.
There are two reasons for this:
* This behaviour is compatible with the old IEEE1394 stack. Old
applications would not expect the DMA program to stop in this case.
* Since the OHCI driver does not report any uncompleted packets, the
context would stop silently; clients would not have any chance to
detect and handle this error without a watchdog timer.
Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de>
Pieter Palmers notes:
"The reason I added this retry behavior to the old stack is because some
cards now and then fail to send a packet (e.g. the o2micro card in my
dell laptop). I couldn't figure out why exactly this happens, my best
guess is that the card cannot fetch the payload data on time. This
happens much more frequently when sending large packets, which leads me
to suspect that there are some contention issues with the DMA that fills
the transmit FIFO.
In the old stack it was a pretty critical issue as it resulted in a
freeze of the userspace application.
The omission of a packet doesn't necessarily have to be an issue. E.g.
in IEC61883 streams the DBC field can be used to detect discontinuities
in the stream. So as long as the other side doesn't bail when no
[packet] is present in a cycle, there is not really a problem.
I'm not convinced though that retrying is the proper solution, but it is
simple and effective for what it had to do. And I think there are no
reasons not to do it this way. Userspace can still detect this by
checking the cycle the descriptor was sent in."

In the transmit path of firewire-net (IPv4 over 1394), the following
race condition may occur:
- The networking soft IRQ inserts a datagram into the 1394 async
request transmit DMA.
- The 1394 async transmit completion tasklet runs to finish cleaning
up (unlink datagram from list of pending ones, release skb and
outbound 1394 transaction object) --- before the networking soft IRQ
had a chance to proceed and add the datagram to the list of pending
datagrams.
This caused a panic in the 1394 async transmit completion tasklet when
it dereferenced unitialized list heads:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15077
The fix is to add checks in the tx soft IRQ and in the tasklet to
determine which of these two is the last referrer to the transaction
object. Then handle the cleanup of the object by the last referrer
rather than assuming that the tasklet is always the last one.
There is another similar race: Between said tasklet and fwnet_close,
i.e. at ifdown. However, that race is much less likely to occur in
practice and shall be fixed in a separate update.

Unsurprisingly, Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 exhibits the same behaviour
as TSB43AB22/A in dual buffer IR DMA mode: If descriptors are located
at physical addresses above the 31 bit address range (2 GB), the
controller will overwrite random memory. With luck, this merely
prevents video reception. With only a little less luck, the machine
crashes.
We use the same workaround here as with TSB43AB22/A: Switch off the
dual buffer capability flag and use packet-per-buffer IR DMA instead.
Another possible workaround would be to limit the coherent DMA mask to
31 bits.
In Linux 2.6.33, this change serves effectively only as documentation
since dual buffer mode is not used for any controller anymore. But
somebody might want to re-enable it in the future to make use of
features of dual buffer DMA that are not available in packet-per-buffer
mode.
In Linux 2.6.32 and older, this update is vital for anyone with this
controller, more than 2 GB RAM, a 64 bit kernel, and FireWire video or
audio applications.
We have at least four reports:

Commit db5d247a "firewire: fix use of multiple AV/C devices, allow
multiple FCP listeners" introduced a regression into 2.6.33-rc3:
The core freed payloads of incoming requests to FCP_Request or
FCP_Response before a userspace driver accessed them.
We need to copy such payloads for each registered userspace client
and free the copies according to the lifetime rules of non-FCP client
request resources.
(This could possibly be optimized by reference counts instead of
copies.)
The presently only kernelspace driver which listens for FCP requests,
firedtv, was not affected because it already copies FCP frames into an
own buffer before returning to firewire-core's FCP handler dispatcher.

Presently, firewire-core only checks whether descriptors that are to be
added by userspace drivers to the local node's config ROM do not exceed
a size of 256 quadlets. However, the sum of the bare minimum ROM plus
all descriptors (from firewire-core, from firewire-net, from userspace)
must not exceed 256 quadlets.
Otherwise, the bounds of a statically allocated buffer will be
overwritten. If the kernel survives that, firewire-core will
subsequently be unable to parse the local node's config ROM.
(Note, userspace drivers can add descriptors only through device files
of local nodes. These are usually only accessible by root, unlike
device files of remote nodes which may be accessible to lesser
privileged users.)
Therefore add a test which takes the actual present and required ROM
size into account for all descriptors of kernelspace and userspace
drivers.

The id_table field of the struct pci_driver is constant in <linux/pci.h>
so it is worth to make pci_table also constant. Found with Coccinelle.
