This patch (as1149) fixes an obscure problem in OHCI polling. In the
current code, if the RHSC interrupt status flag turns on at a time
when RHSC interrupts are disabled, it will remain on forever:
The interrupt handler is the only place where RHSC status
gets turned back off;
The interrupt handler won't turn RHSC status off because it
doesn't turn off status flags if the corresponding interrupt
isn't enabled;
RHSC interrupts will never get enabled because
ohci_root_hub_state_changes() doesn't reenable RHSC if RHSC
status is on!
As a result we will continue polling indefinitely instead of reverting
to interrupt-driven operation, and the root hub will not autosuspend.
This particular sequence of events is not at all unusual; in fact
plugging a USB device into an OHCI controller will usually cause it to
occur.
Of course, this is a bug. The proper thing to do is to turn off RHSC
status just before reading the actual port status values. That way
either a port status change will be detected (if it occurs before the
status read) or it will turn RHSC back on. Possibly both, but that
won't hurt anything.
We can still check for systems in which RHSC is totally broken, by
re-reading RHSC after clearing it and before reading the port
statuses. (This re-read has to be done anyway, to post the earlier
write.) If RHSC is on but no port-change statuses are set, then we
know that RHSC is broken and we can avoid re-enabling it.

This patch (as1134) attempts to improve the way we handle OHCI
controllers with broken Root Hub Status Change interrupt support. In
these controllers the RHSC interrupt bit essentially never turns off,
making RHSC interrupts useless -- they have to remain permanently
disabled.
Such controllers should still be allowed to turn off their root hubs
when no devices are attached. Polling for new connections can
continue while the root hub is suspended. The patch implements this
feature. (It won't have much effect unless CONFIG_PM is enabled and
CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND is disabled, but since the overhead is very small
we may as well do it.)

This patch (as1069c) changes the way OHCI root-hub status-change
interrupts are enabled. Currently a special HCD method,
hub_irq_enable(), is called when the hub driver is finished using a
root hub. This approach turns out to be subject to races, resulting
in unnecessary polling.
The patch does away with the method entirely. Instead, the driver
automatically enables the RHSC interrupt when no more status changes
are present. This scheme is safe with controllers using
level-triggered semantics for their interrupt flags.

This patch (as1114) fixes a problem that was revealed by an earlier
patch (as1069b). Some broken controllers seem never to turn off their
RHCS interrupt status bit, even when told to do so. As a result they
generate an interrupt storm and hang the system.
The patch avoids enabling RHSC interrupt requests when the RHCS status
bit is already set. This should have no adverse affects on normal
controllers, since they won't set the status bit until a root-hub
status change actually occurs, in which case we wouldn't enable RHSC
interrupt requests anyway -- we would wait until the status change had
been processed and cleared.

This patch (as1068b) disables the RD interrupt flag when an OHCI root

When a USB device is suspended, whether or not it is enabled for
remote wakeup depends on the device_may_wakeup() setting. The setting
is then saved in the do_remote_wakeup flag.
Later on, however, the device_may_wakeup() value can change because of
user activity. So when testing whether a suspended device is or
should be enabled for remote wakeup, we should always test
do_remote_wakeup instead of device_may_wakeup(). This patch (as1076)
makes that change for root hubs in several places.
The patch also adjusts uhci-hcd so that when an autostopped controller
is suspended, the remote wakeup setting agrees with the value recorded
in the root hub's do_remote_wakeup flag.
And the patch adjusts ehci-hcd so that wakeup events on selectively
suspended ports (i.e., the bus itself isn't suspended) don't turn on
the PME# wakeup signal.

Drivers in the ohci-hcd family should perform certain tasks whenever
their controller device is resumed. These include checking for loss
of power during suspend, turning on port power, and enabling interrupt
requests.
Until now these jobs have been carried out when the root hub is
resumed, not when the controller is. Many drivers work around the
resulting awkwardness by automatically resuming their root hub
whenever the controller is resumed. But this is wasteful and
unnecessary.
To simplify the situation, this patch (as1066) adds a new core
routine, ohci_finish_controller_resume(), which can be used by all the
OHCI-variant drivers. They can call the new routine instead of
resuming their root hubs. And ohci-pci.c can call it instead of using
its own special-purpose handler.

I have found a problem where the root_port_reset() goes into an infinite
loop and stalls the kernel.
This happens when a hardware fault inside the machine occurs during a small
timing window. In case of USB device connection, if a USB device responds to
hcd_submit_urb(), and later the controller fails before root_port_reset(),
root_port_reset() will loop infinitely because ohci_readl() will always
return "-1". Such a failure can include ejecting a CardBus OHCI controller.
The probability of this problem is low, but it will increase if PnP type
usage is frequent. The attached patch can solve this problem and I believe
that it is better to fix this problem.

Unlike UHCI, OHCI does not exert any DMA load on the system when no

an autostop other than the power savings, so we shouldn't compile the

This patch (as820) makes the root-hub suspend and resume routines

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 makes OHCI use the driver model wakeup control bits for its root hub
(e.g. disable on amd756, because of chip erratum) and for the controller
itself. It no longer uses the hcd glue bits with those roles, and depends
on the previous patch making the root hub available earlier.
Note that on most platforms (boot code properly setting the RWC bit) this
gives a partial workaround for the way PCI isn't currently flagging devices
that support PME# signals. (Because of odd PCI init sequencing on PPC.)
That's because many OHCI controllers support "legacy PCI PM" ... without
involving any PCI PM capability.
USB wakeup from STR, if it works on your system, may still involve
tweaking things by hand in /proc/acpi/wakeup.

This patch (as605) removes the private udev->serialize semaphore,
relying instead on the locking provided by the embedded struct device's

usb_trylock_device routine now uses the return convention of
down_trylock rather than down_read_trylock (they return opposite values
for no good reason).
A couple of other associated changes are included as well:
Now that we aren't concerned about HCDs that avoid using the
hcd glue layer, usb_disconnect no longer needs to acquire the
usb_bus_lock -- that can be done by usb_remove_hcd where it
belongs.
Devices aren't locked over the same scope of code in
usb_new_device and hub_port_connect_change as they used to be.

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

This simplifies the OHCI root hub suspend logic:
- Uses new usbcore root hub calls to make autosuspend work again:
* Uses a newish usbcore root hub wakeup mechanism,
making requests to khubd not keventd.
* Uses an even newer sibling suspend hook.
- Expect someone always made usbcore call ohci_hub_suspend() before bus
glue fires; and that ohci_hub_resume() is only called after that bus
glue ran. Previously, only CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND promised those things.
(Includes updates to PCI and OMAP bus glue.)
- Handle a not-noticed-before special case during resume from one of
the swsusp snapshots when using "usb-handoff": the controller isn't
left in RESET state. (A bug to fix in the usb-handoff code...)
