4817ed2402 firewire: prevent creation of multiple IR DMA contexts for the same channel
OHCI-1394 1.1 clause 10.4.3 says:  "If more than one IR DMA context
specifies receives for packets from the same isochronous channel, the
context destination for that channel's packets is undefined."

Any userspace client and in the future also kernelspace clients can
allocate IR DMA contexts for any channel.  We don't want them to
interfere with each other, hence it is preferable to return -EBUSY if
allocation of a second context for a channel is attempted.

Notes:
  - This limitation is OHCI-1394 specific, therefore its proper place of
    implementation is down in the low-level driver.

  - Since the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI simply maps one userspace iso
    client context to one hardware iso context, this OHCI-1394
    limitation alas requires userspace to implement its own multiplexing
    of iso reception from the same channel and card to multiple clients
    when needed.

  - The limitation is independent of channel allocation at the IRM; the
    latter is really only important for the initiation of iso 
    transmission but not of iso reception.

  - We don't need to do the same for IT DMA because OHCI-1394 does not
    have any ties between IT contexts and channels.  Only the voluntary
    channel allocation protocol via the IRM, globally to the FireWire
    bus, can ensure proper isochronous transmit behaviour anyway.

3e0b5f0d7c firewire: cdev: address handler input validation
Like before my commit 1415d9189e,
fw_core_add_address_handler() does not align the address region now.
Instead the caller is required to pass valid parameters.

Since one of the callers of fw_core_add_address_handler() is the cdev
userspace interface, we now check for valid input.  If the client is
buggy, we give it a hint with -EINVAL.

45ee3199eb firewire: cdev: use an idr rather than a linked list for resources
The current code uses a linked list and a counter for storing
resources and the corresponding handle numbers.  By changing to an idr
we can be safe from counter wrap-around giving two resources the same
handle.

Furthermore, the deallocation ioctls now check whether the resource to
be freed is of the intended type.

Signed-off-by: Jay Fenlason <fenlason@redhat.com>

Some rework by Stefan R:
  - The idr API documentation says we get an ID within 0...0x7fffffff.
    Hence we can rest assured that idr handles fit into cdev handles.
  - Fix some races.  Add a client->in_shutdown flag for this purpose.
  - Add allocation retry to add_client_resource().
  - It is possible to use idr_for_each() in fw_device_op_release().
  - Fix ioctl_send_response() regression.
  - Small style changes.

1f3125af8e firewire: cdev: tcodes input validation
The behaviour of fw-transaction.c::fw_send_request is ill-defined for
any other tcodes than read/ write/ lock request tcodes.  Therefore
prevent requests with wrong tcodes from entering the transaction layer.

Maybe fw_send_request should check them itself, but I am not inclined to
change it and fw_fill_request from void-valued functions to ones which
return error codes and pass those up.  Besides, maybe fw_send_request is
going to support one more tcode than ioctl_send_request in the future
(TCODE_STREAM_DATA).

cf417e5494 firewire: add a client_list_lock
This adds a client_list_lock, which only protects the device's
client_list, so that future versions of the driver can call code that
takes the card->lock while holding the client_list_lock.  Adding this
lock is much simpler than adding __ versions of all the functions that
the future version may need.  The one ordering issue is to make sure
code never takes the client_list_lock with card->lock held.  Since
client_list_lock is only used in three places, that isn't hard.

1aa292bb1c firewire: Include iso timestamp in headers when header_size > 4
Previously, when an iso context had header_size > 4, the iso header
(len/tag/channel/tcode/sy) was passed to userspace followed by quadlets
stripped from the payload.  This patch changes the behavior:
header_size = 8 now passes the header quadlet followed by the timestamp
quadlet.  When header_size > 8, quadlets are stripped from the payload.
The header_size = 4 case remains identical.

Since this alters the semantics of the API, the firewire API version
needs to be bumped concurrently with this change.

This change also refactors the header copying code slightly to be much
easier to read.

c8c4707cf7 firewire: sbp2: add workarounds for 2nd and 3rd generation iPods
According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294391
  - 3rd generation iPods need the "fix capacity" workaround after all
    (apparently they crash after the last sector was accessed),
  - 2nd generation iPods need the "128 kB maximum request size"
    workaround.

Alas both iPod generations feature the same model ID in the config ROM,
hence we can only define a shared quirks list entry for them.  Luckily
the fix capacity workaround did not show a negative effect in Jarod's
tests with 2nd gen. iPod.

A side note:  Apple computers in target mode (or at least an x86 Mac
mini) don't have firmware_version and model_id, hence none of the iPod
quirks list entries is active for them.

8b7b6afaa8 firewire: ohci: increase AT req. retries, fix ack_busy_X from Panasonic camcorders and others
Camcorders have a tendency to fail read requests to their config ROM and
write request to their FCP command register with ack_busy_X.  This has
become a problem with newer kernels and especially Panasonic camcorders,
causing AV/C in dvgrab and kino to fail.  Dvgrab for example frequently
logs "send oops"; kino reports loss of AV/C control.  I suspect that
lower CPU scheduling latencies in newer kernels made this issue more
prominent now.

According to
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=114103&aid=2492640&group_id=14103
this can be fixed by configuring the FireWire controller for more
hardware retries for request transmission; these retries are evidently
more successful than libavc1394's own retry loop (typically 3 tries on
top of hardware retries).

Presumably the same issue has been reported at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449252 and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477279 .

In a quick test with a JVC camcorder (which didn't malfunction like the
reported camcorders), this change decreased the number of ack_busy_X
from 16 in three runs of dvgrab to 4 in three runs of the same capture
duration.

3d36a0df3b firewire: keep highlevel drivers attached during brief connection loss
There are situations when nodes vanish from the bus and come back
quickly thereafter:
  - When certain bus-powered hubs are plugged in,
  - when certain devices are plugged into 6-port hubs,
  - when certain disk enclosures are switched from self-power to bus
    power or vice versa and break the daisy chain during the transition,
  - when the user plugs a cable out and quickly plugs it back in, e.g.
    to reorder a daisy chain (works on Mac OS X if done quickly enough),
  - when certain hubs temporarily malfunction during high bus traffic.

Until now, firewire-core reported affected nodes as lost to the
highlevel drivers (firewire-sbp2 and userspace drivers).  We now delay
the destruction of device representations until after at least two
seconds after the last bus reset.  If a "new" device is detected in this
period whose bus information block and root directory header match that
of a device which is pending for deletion, we resurrect that device and
send update calls to highlevel drivers.

a5c7f4710f firewire: insist on successive self ID complete events
The whole topology code only works if the old and new topologies which
are compared come from immediately successive self ID complete events.

If there happened bus resets without self ID complete events in the
meantime, or self ID complete events with invalid selfIDs, the topology
comparison could identify nodes wrongly, or more likely just corrupt
kernel memory or panic right away.

We now discard all nodes of the old topology and treat all current nodes
as new ones if the current self ID generation is not the previous one
plus 1.

0dcfeb7e3c firewire: fw-sbp2: delay first login to avoid retries
This optimizes firewire-sbp2's device probe for the case that the local
node and the SBP-2 node were discovered at the same time.  In this case,
fw-core's bus management work and fw-sbp2's login and SCSI probe work
are scheduled in parallel (in the globally shared workqueue and in
fw-sbp2's workqueue, respectively).  The bus reset from fw-core may then
disturb and extremely delay the login and SCSI probe because the latter
fails with several command timeouts and retries and has to be retried
from scratch.

We avoid this particular situation of sbp2_login() and fw_card_bm_work()
running in parallel by delaying the first sbp2_login() a little bit.

This is meant to be a short-term fix for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466679.  In the long run,
the SCSI probe, i.e. fw-sbp2's call of __scsi_add_device(), should be
parallelized with sbp2_reconnect().

2. Use dma_set_max_seg_size() to tell the DMA mapping infrastructure
   and the block IO layer about the restriction.  This way we can
   remove the size checks and segment splitting in the queuecommand
   path.

   This assumes that no other code in the firewire stack uses
   dma_map_sg() with conflicting requirements.  It furthermore assumes
   that the controller device's platform actually allows us to set the
   segment size to our liking.  Assert the latter with a BUG_ON().

3. Also use blk_queue_max_segment_size() to tell the block IO layer
   about it.  It cannot know it because our scsi_add_host() does not
   point to the FireWire controller's device.

Removes an unnecessary struct and an ununsed retry loop.
Calls it fw_run_transaction() instead of fw_send_request_sync().

8401d92ba4 firewire: Preserve response data alignment bug when it is harmless
Recently, a bug having to do with the alignment of transaction response
data was fixed.  However, some apps such as libdc1394 relied on the
presence of that bug in order to function correctly.  In order to stay
compatible with old versions of those apps, this patch preserves the bug
in cases where it is harmless to normal operation (such as the single
quadlet read) due to a simple duplication of data.  This guarantees
maximum compatability for those users who are using the old app with the
fixed kernel.
