Linus Walleij ffbbdd2132 spi: create a message queueing infrastructure
This rips the message queue in the PL022 driver out and pushes
it into (optional) common infrastructure. Drivers that want to
use the message pumping thread will need to define the new
per-messags transfer methods and leave the deprecated transfer()
method as NULL.

Most of the design is described in the documentation changes that
are included in this patch.

Since there is a queue that need to be stopped when the system
is suspending/resuming, two new calls are implemented for the
device drivers to call in their suspend()/resume() functions:
spi_master_suspend() and spi_master_resume().

ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Remove Kconfig entry and do not make the queue support optional
  at all, instead be more agressive and have it as part of the
  compulsory infrastructure.
- If the .transfer() method is implemented, delete print a small
  deprecation notice and do not start the transfer pump.
- Fix a bitrotted comment.
ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Fix up a problematic sequence courtesy of Chris Blair.
- Stop rather than destroy the queue on suspend() courtesy of
  Chris Blair.

Laurent Pinchart 178db7d30f spi: Fix device unregistration when unregistering the bus master
Device are added as children of the bus master's parent device, but
spi_unregister_master() looks for devices to unregister in the bus
master's children. This results in the child devices not being
unregistered.

Fix this by registering devices as direct children of the bus master.

Sort the SPI makefile and enforce the naming convention spi_*.c for
spi drivers.

This change also rolls the contents of atmel_spi.h into the .c file

Linus Walleij eb288a1f45 spi: fixed odd static string conventions in core code
This patch removes convention of passing a static string as a
parameter to another static string.  The convention is intended to
reduce text usage by sharing the common bits of the string, but the
implementation is inherently fragile (a change to one format string
but not the other will nullify any possible advantage), it isn't
necessarily a net win depending on what this compiler does, and it
it reduces code readability.

Ernst Schwab cf32b71e98 spi/mmc_spi: SPI bus locking API, using mutex
SPI bus locking API to allow exclusive access to the SPI bus, especially, but
not limited to, for the mmc_spi driver.

Coded according to an outline from Grant Likely; here is his
specification (accidentally swapped function names corrected):

It requires 3 things to be added to struct spi_master.
- 1 Mutex
- 1 spin lock
- 1 flag.

The mutex protects spi_sync, and provides sleeping "for free"
The spinlock protects the atomic spi_async call.
The flag is set when the lock is obtained, and checked while holding
the spinlock in spi_async().  If the flag is checked, then spi_async()
must fail immediately.

The current runtime API looks like this:
spi_async(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*);
spi_sync(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*);

The API needs to be extended to this:
spi_async(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*)
spi_sync(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*)
spi_bus_lock(struct spi_master*)  /* although struct spi_device* might
be easier */
spi_bus_unlock(struct spi_master*)
spi_async_locked(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*)
spi_sync_locked(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*)

Drivers can only call the last two if they already hold the spi_master_lock().

spi_bus_lock() obtains the mutex, obtains the spin lock, sets the
flag, and releases the spin lock before returning.  It doesn't even
need to sleep while waiting for "in-flight" spi_transactions to
complete because its purpose is to guarantee no additional
transactions are added.  It does not guarantee that the bus is idle.

spi_bus_unlock() clears the flag and releases the mutex, which will
wake up any waiters.

The difference between spi_async() and spi_async_locked() is that the
locked version bypasses the check of the lock flag.  Both versions
need to obtain the spinlock.

The difference between spi_sync() and spi_sync_locked() is that
spi_sync() must hold the mutex while enqueuing a new transfer.
spi_sync_locked() doesn't because the mutex is already held.  Note
however that spi_sync must *not* continue to hold the mutex while
waiting for the transfer to complete, otherwise only one transfer
could be queued up at a time!

Almost no code needs to be written.  The current spi_async() and
spi_sync() can probably be renamed to __spi_async() and __spi_sync()
so that spi_async(), spi_sync(), spi_async_locked() and
spi_sync_locked() can just become wrappers around the common code.

spi_sync() is protected by a mutex because it can sleep
spi_async() needs to be protected with a flag and a spinlock because
it can be called atomically and must not sleep

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
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.

that function perform error checks and reject messages that demand more
than the underlying controller can support.

Anton Vorontsov 75368bf6c2 spi: add support for device table matching
With this patch spi drivers can use standard spi_driver.id_table and
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() mechanisms to bind against the devices.  Just like
we do with I2C drivers.

This is useful when a single driver supports several variants of devices
but it is not possible to detect them in run-time (like non-JEDEC chips
probing in drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c), and when platform_data usage is
overkill.

This patch also makes life a lot easier on OpenFirmware platforms, since
with OF we extensively use proper device IDs in modaliases.

 - The data it wrote out during the (full duplex) read side

 - It fails completely on half duplex hardware, such as

So, revert that patch.  A revised version should be submitted at some
point, which can get the speedup on standard hardware (full duplex)
without breaking on less-capable half-duplex stuff.

improves consistency, letting more subsystems rely on GPIOs being usable

David Brownell e48880e02e spi: bugfix spi_add_device() with duplicate chipselects
When reviewing a recent patch I noticed a potential trouble spot in the
registration of new SPI devices.  The SPI master driver is told to set
the device up before adding it to the driver model, so that it's always
properly set up when probe() is called.  (This is important, because in
the case of inverted chipselects, this device can make the bus misbehave
until it's properly deselected.  It's got to be set up even if no driver
binds to the device.)

The trouble spot is that it doesn't first verify that no other device
has been added using that chipselect.  If such a device has been added,
its configuration gets trashed.  (Fortunately this has not been a common
error!)

The fix here adds an explicit check, and a mutex to protect the relevant
critical region.

Grant Likely dc87c98e8f spi: split up spi_new_device() to allow two stage registration.
spi_new_device() allocates and registers an spi device all in one swoop.
If the driver needs to add extra data to the spi_device before it is
registered, then this causes problems.  This is needed for OF device
tree support so that the SPI device tree helper can add a pointer to
the device node after the device is allocated, but before the device
is registered.  OF aware SPI devices can then retrieve data out of the
device node to populate a platform data structure.

This patch splits the allocation and registration portions of code out
of spi_new_device() and creates two new functions; spi_alloc_device()
and spi_register_device().  spi_new_device() is modified to use the new
functions for allocation and registration.  None of the existing users
of spi_new_device() should be affected by this change.

Drivers using the new API can forego the use of spi_board_info
structure to describe the device layout and populate data into the
spi_device structure directly.

This change is in preparation for adding an OF device tree parser to
generate spi_devices based on data in the device tree.

Grant Likely 102eb97564 spi: make spi_board_info.modalias a char array
Currently, 'modalias' in the spi_device structure is a 'const char *'.
The spi_new_device() function fills in the modalias value from a passed in
spi_board_info data block.  Since it is a pointer copy, the new spi_device
remains dependent on the spi_board_info structure after the new spi_device
is registered (no other fields in spi_device directly depend on the
spi_board_info structure; all of the other data is copied).

This causes a problem when dynamically propulating the list of attached
SPI devices.  For example, in arch/powerpc, the list of SPI devices can be
populated from data in the device tree.  With the current code, the device
tree adapter must kmalloc() a new spi_board_info structure for each new
SPI device it finds in the device tree, and there is no simple mechanism
in place for keeping track of these allocations.

This patch changes modalias from a 'const char *' to a fixed char array.
By copying the modalias string instead of referencing it, the dependency
on the spi_board_info structure is eliminated and an outside caller does
not need to maintain a separate spi_board_info allocation for each device.

If searched through the code to the best of my ability for any references
to modalias which may be affected by this change and haven't found
anything.  It has been tested with the lite5200b platform in arch/powerpc.

David Brownell 082c8cb4e5 spi device setup gets better error checking
This updates some error reporting paths in SPI device setup:

 - Move validation logic for SPI chipselects to spi_new_device(),
   which is where it should always have been.

 - In spi_new_device(), emit error messages if the device can't
   be created.  This is LOTS better than a silent failure; though
   eventually, the calling convention should probably change to
   use the <linux/err.h> conventions.

 - Includes one previously-missing check:  SPI masters must always
   have at least one chipselect, even for dedicated busses which
   always keep it selected!

It also adds a FIXME (IDR for dynamic ID allocation) so the issue doesn't live
purely in my mailbox.

Atsushi Nemoto 1e9a51dca1 [PATCH] SPI: alternative fix for spi_busnum_to_master
If a SPI master device exists, udev (udevtrigger) causes kernel crash, due
to wrong kobj pointer in kobject_uevent_env().  This problem was not in
2.6.19.

The backtrace (on MIPS) was:
[<8024db6c>] kobject_uevent_env+0x54c/0x5e8
[<802a8264>] store_uevent+0x1c/0x3c  (in drivers/class.c)
[<801cb14c>] subsys_attr_store+0x2c/0x50
[<801cb80c>] flush_write_buffer+0x38/0x5c
[<801cb900>] sysfs_write_file+0xd0/0x190
[<80181444>] vfs_write+0xc4/0x1a0
[<80181cdc>] sys_write+0x54/0xa0
[<8010dae4>] stack_done+0x20/0x3c

flush_write_buffer() passes kobject of spi_master_class.subsys to
subsys_addr_store(), then subsys_addr_store() passes a pointer to a struct
subsystem to store_uevent() which expects a pointer to a struct
class_device.  The problem seems subsys_attr_store() called instead of
class_device_attr_store().

This mismatch was caused by commit
3bd0f69435, which overrides kset of master
class.  This made spi_master_class.subsys.kset.ktype NULL so
subsys_sysfs_ops is used instead of class_dev_sysfs_ops.

The commit was to fix spi_busnum_to_master().  Here is a patch fixes
this function in other way, just searching children list of
class_device.

  - Check for a few setup errors that would cause oopsing later.

  - Provide a simple alloc/free for spi_message and its spi_transfer;

  * There's now a "struct spi_driver".  This increase the footprint
    of the core a bit, since it now includes code to do what the driver
    core was previously handling directly.  Documentation and comments
    were updated to match.

  * spi_alloc_master() now does class_device_initialize(), so it can
    at least be refcounted before spi_register_master().  To match,
    spi_register_master() switched over to class_device_add().

  * States explicitly that after transfer errors, spi_devices will be
    deselected.  We want fault recovery procedures to work the same
    for all controller drivers.

  * Minor tweaks:  controller_data no longer points to readonly data;
    prevent some potential cast-from-null bugs with container_of calls;
    clarifies some existing kerneldoc,

And a few small cleanups.

David Brownell 8ae12a0d85 [PATCH] spi: simple SPI framework
This is the core of a small SPI framework, implementing the model of a
queue of messages which complete asynchronously (with thin synchronous
wrappers on top).

  - It's still less than 2KB of ".text" (ARM).  If there's got to be a
    mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget.  :)

  - The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver
    model tree.  (Hardware probing is rarely an option.)

  - This version of Kconfig includes no drivers.  At this writing there
    are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire)
    and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML
    mentions of other drivers in development.

  - No userspace API.  There are several implementations to compare.
    Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs.

The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor,
and include:

  - One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device
    names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect.

  - The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for
    DMA drivers that want to be fancy.

  - Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init.  Even though board init
    logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is
    for driver support, and the board init support uses static init.

  - Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions
    with other folk.  It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk
    who've helped nudge this framework into existence.

As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support
that this driver framework will need to evolve.

  Update the SPI framework to remove a potential priority inversion case by
  reverting to kmalloc if the pre-allocated DMA-safe buffer isn't available.
