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.

Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what
it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are
(from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads.
Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from
"undefined" to "will shift zeroes". This lets protocol drivers (like the
ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior. It's what most controller drivers
in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver
wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing,
and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to
define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels.
This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and
updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

Stabilize PIO mode transfers against a range of word sizes and FIFO
thresholds and fixes word size setup/override issues.
1) 16 and 32 bit DMA/PIO transfers broken due to timing differences.
2) Potential for bad transfer counts due to transfer size assumptions.
3) Setup function broken is multiple ways.
4) Per transfer bit_per_word changes break DMA setup in pump_tranfers.
5) False positive timeout are not errors.
6) Changes in pxa2xx_spi_chip not effective in calls to setup.
7) Timeout scaling wrong for PXA255 NSSP.
8) Driver leaks memory while busy during unloading.
Known issues:
SPI_CS_HIGH and SPI_LSB_FIRST settings in struct spi_device are not handled.
Testing:
This patch has been test against the "random length, random bits/word,
random data (verified on loopback) and stepped baud rate by octaves
(3.6MHz to 115kHz)" test. It is robust in PIO mode, using any
combination of tx and rx thresholds, and also in DMA mode (which
internally computes the thresholds).
Much thanks to Ned Forrester for exhaustive reviews, fixes and testing.

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.

- SPI masters driver should accept a max clock speed of zero; that's one

- There are more than 1000 nanoseconds per millisecond; setting the clock

This adds a bitbanging spi master, hooking up to board/adapter-specific glue
code which knows how to set and read the signals (gpios etc).
This code kicks in after the glue code creates a platform_device with the
right platform_data. That data includes I/O loops, which will usually
come from expanding an inline function (provided in the header). One goal
is that the I/O loops should be easily optimized down to a few GPIO register
accesses, in common cases, for speed and minimized overhead.
This understands all the currently defined protocol tweaking options in the
SPI framework, and might eventually serve as as reference implementation.
- different word sizes (1..32 bits)
- differing clock rates
- SPI modes differing by CPOL (affecting chip select and I/O loops)
- SPI modes differing by CPHA (affecting I/O loops)
- delays (usecs) after transfers
- temporarily deselecting chips in mid-transfer
A lot of hardware could work with this framework, though common types of
controller can't reach peak performance without switching to a driver
structure that supports pipelining of transfers (e.g. DMA queues) and maybe
controllers (e.g. IRQ driven).

This is a refresh of the "Simple SPI Framework" found in 2.6.15-rc3-mm1
which makes the following changes:
* 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;

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.
