This patch fixes some performance bugs observed with some workloads
when unlinking EHCI queue header (QH) descriptors from the async ring
(control/bulk schedule).
The mechanism intended to defer unlinking an empty QH (so there is no
penalty in common cases where it's quickly reused) was not working as
intended. Sometimes the unlink was scheduled:
- too quickly ... which can be a *strong* negative effect, since
that QH becomes unavailable for immediate re-use;
- too slowly ... wasting DMA cycles, usually a minor issue except
for increased bus contention and power usage;
Plus there was an extreme case of "too slowly": a logical error in the
IAA watchdog-timer conversion meant that sometimes the unlink never
got scheduled.
The fix replaces a simple counter with a timestamp derived from the
controller's 8 KHz microframe counter, and adjusts the timer usage
for some issues associated with HZ being less than 8K.
(Based on a patch originally by Alan Stern, and good troubleshooting
from Leonid.)

Simplify processing of completed qtds, and correct handling of short
reads, by removing two state variables:
- "qtd_status" wasn't needed. The current URB's status is either
OK (-EINPROGRESS) or some fault status. Once a fault appears,
the queue halts and any later QTDs are immediately removed, so
no temporary status is needed. (Or for typical short reads,
it's not treated as a fault, so no queue halt is needed.)
- "do_status" was erroneous. Because of how the queue is set up,
short control reads can (and should!) be treated like full size
reads, and cleaned up the usual way. The status stage will be
executed transparently, and usbcore handles the choice of whether
to report this status as unexected.
The "do_status" problem caused a rather perplexing timing-dependent
problem with usbtest case 10. Sometimes it would make the controller
skip a dozen transactions while (wrongly) trying to clean up after a
short transfer. Fortunately, removing a dcache contention issue made
this become trivial to reproduce (on one test rig), so enough clues
finally presented themselves ... I think this has been around for a
very long time, but was worsened by recent urb->status changes.

This teaches EHCI how to to work around bugs in certain high speed
devices, by accomodating "bulk" packets that exceed the 512 byte
constant value required by the USB 2.0 specification. (Have a
look at section 5.8.3, paragraphs 1 and 3.)
It also makes the descriptor parsing code warn when it encounters
such bugs. (We've had reports of maybe two or three such devices,
all pretty recent.)
Such devices are nonconformant. The proper fix is have the vendors
of those devices do the simple, obvious, and correct thing ... which
will let them be used with USB hosts that don't have workarounds for
this particular vendor bug. But unless/until they do, we can at least
have one of the high speed HCDs work with such buggy devices.

USB: ehci: Fixes completion for multi-qtd URB the short read case
When use of urb->status in the EHCI driver was reworked last August
(commit 14c04c0f88), a bug was inserted
in the handling of early completion for bulk transactions that need
more than one qTD (e.g. more than 20KB in one URB).
This patch resolves that problem by ensuring that the early completion
status is preserved until the URB is handed back to its submitter,
instead of resetting it after each qTD.

This patch (as954) implements a suggestion of David Brownell's. Now
the host controller drivers are responsible for linking and unlinking
URBs to/from their endpoint queues. This eliminates the possiblity of
strange situations where usbcore thinks an URB is linked but the HCD
thinks it isn't. It also means HCDs no longer have to check for URBs
being dequeued before they were fully enqueued.
In addition to the core changes, this requires changing every host
controller driver and the root-hub URB handler. For the most part the
required changes are fairly small; drivers have to call
usb_hcd_link_urb_to_ep() in their urb_enqueue method,
usb_hcd_check_unlink_urb() in their urb_dequeue method, and
usb_hcd_unlink_urb_from_ep() before giving URBs back. A few HCDs make
matters more complicated by the way they split up the flow of control.
In addition some method interfaces get changed. The endpoint argument
for urb_enqueue is now redundant so it is removed. The unlink status
is required by usb_hcd_check_unlink_urb(), so it has been added to
urb_dequeue.

This patch implements supports for EHCI controllers whose in-memory
data structures are represented in big-endian format. This is needed
(unfortunately) for the AMCC PPC440EPx SoC EHCI controller; the EHCI
spec doesn't specify little-endian format, although that's what most
other implementations use.
The guts of the patch are to introduce the hc32 type and change all
references from le32 to hc32. All access routines are converted from
cpu_to_le32(...) to cpu_to_hc32(ehci, ...) and similar for the other
"direction". (This is the same approach used with OHCI.)
David fixed:
Whitespace fixes; refresh against ehci cpufreq patch; move glue
for that PPC driver to the patch adding it; fix free symbol
capture bugs in modified "constant" macros; and make "hc32" etc
be "le32" unless we really need the BE options, so "sparse" can

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 revamps handling of the hardware "async advance" IRQ, and its watchdog
timer. Basically it dis-entangles that important timeout from the others,
simplifying the associated state and code to make it more robust.
This reportedly improves behavior of EHCI on some systems with VIA chips,
and AFAIK won't affect non-VIA hardware. VIA systems need this code to
recover from silcon bugs whereby the "async advance" IRQ isn't issued.

This patch modifies the behavior of the EHCI driver in an unlink path
that seems to be causing various issues on some systems. Those problems
have included issues with disconnection, driver unbinding, and similar
cases where urb unlinking would just not work right.
This patch should help avoid those problems by not turning off the async
(control/bulk) schedule until it's not expecting an "async advance" IRQ,
which comes from the processing passing the schedule head. Whether the
driver attempts to do such things is dependent on system timings, so

When the ehci-hcd driver prepares a control URB, it tests for a
zero-length data stage by looking at the transfer_dma value instead of
the transfer_buffer_length. (In fact it does this even for non-control
URBs, which is an additional aspect of the same bug.)
However, under certain circumstances it's possible for transfer_dma to
be 0 while transfer_buffer_length is non-zero. This can happen when a
freshly allocated page (mapped to address 0 and marked Copy-On-Write,
but never written to) is used as the source buffer for an OUT transfer.

Alan, please verify the UHCI bit I did, I only verified that it builds.

to the interrupt register that disables interrupts is not posted before
I set the flag and drop the spinlock.
Without this patch, you cannot reliably sleep/wakeup any recent Mac, and
I suspect PCs have some more sneaky issues too (they don't frankly crash
with machine checks because x86 tend to silently swallow PCI errors but
that won't last afaik, at least PCI Express will blow up in those

(Prevents an oops by providing the correct answer.)
- The cleanup going along with the patch should make it clearer what's

The bug came about when, around January, two new kinds of EHCI interrupt
scheduling operation were added, involving both the high speed (24 KBytes
per millisec) and low/full speed (1-64 bytes per millisec) microframe
scheduling. A driver for the Edirol UA-1000 Audio Capture Unit ran into
