2009-09-13dca: module load should not be an error messageStephen Hemminger
The message (if it must exist) should not be an error message. IMHO such messages are useless. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2009-09-10dca: registering requesters in multiple dca domainsMaciej Sosnowski
This patch enables DCA support on multiple-IOH/multiple-IIO architectures. It modifies dca module by replacing single dca_providers list with dca_domains list, each domain containing separate list of providers. This approach lets dca driver manage multiple domains, i.e. sets of providers and requesters mapped back to the same PCI root complex device. The driver takes care to register each requester to a provider from the same domain.

2009-02-02dca: redesign locks to fix deadlocksMaciej Sosnowski
Change spin_locks to irqsave to prevent dead-locks. Protect adding and deleting to/from dca_providers list. Drop the lock during dca_sysfs_add_req() and dca_sysfs_remove_req() calls as they might sleep (use GFP_KERNEL allocation).

2009-01-06dmaengine: bump initcall level to arch_initcallDan Williams
There are dmaengine users that would like to register dma devices at subsys_initcall time to ensure channels are available by device_initcall time.

2008-11-10[4/4] dca: fixup initialization dependencyDan Williams
Mark dca_init as a subsys_initcall since it needs to be ready to go before dependent drivers start registering themselves.

2008-07-22I/OAT: I/OAT version 3.0 supportMaciej Sosnowski
This patch adds to ioatdma and dca modules support for Intel I/OAT DMA engine ver.3 (aka CB3 device). The main features of I/OAT ver.3 are: * 8 single channel DMA devices (8 channels total) * 8 DCA providers, each can accept 2 requesters * 8-bit TAG values and 32-bit extended APIC IDs Signed-off-by: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2007-10-16DCA: Add Direct Cache Access driverShannon Nelson
Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses. This patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA services with devices that offer DCA services. In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU. However, different CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a hardware specific magic incantation. This interface is a way for DCA clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing to know the specifics.
