2008-07-08dmaengine: Driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controllerHaavard Skinnemoen
This adds a driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller (aka DMACA on AVR32 systems.) This DMA controller can be found integrated on the AT32AP7000 chip and is primarily meant for peripheral DMA transfer, but can also be used for memory-to-memory transfers. This patch is based on a driver from David Brownell which was based on an older version of the DMA Engine framework. It also implements the proposed extensions to the DMA Engine API for slave DMA operations. The dmatest client shows no problems, but there may still be room for improvement performance-wise. DMA slave transfer performance is definitely "good enough"; reading 100 MiB from an SD card running at ~20 MHz yields ~7.2 MiB/s average transfer rate. Full documentation for this controller can be found in the Synopsys DW AHB DMAC Databook: http://www.synopsys.com/designware/docs/iip/DW_ahb_dmac/latest/doc/dw_ahb_dmac_db.pdf The controller has lots of implementation options, so it's usually a good idea to check the data sheet of the chip it's intergrated on as well. The AT32AP7000 data sheet can be found here: http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/datasheets.asp?family_id=682 Changes since v4: * Use client_count instead of dma_chan_is_in_use() * Add missing include * Unmap buffers unless client told us not to Changes since v3: * Update to latest DMA engine and DMA slave APIs * Embed the hw descriptor into the sw descriptor * Clean up and update MODULE_DESCRIPTION, copyright date, etc. Changes since v2: * Dequeue all pending transfers in terminate_all() * Rename dw_dmac.h -> dw_dmac_regs.h * Define and use controller-specific dma_slave data * Fix up a few outdated comments * Define hardware registers as structs (doesn't generate better code, unfortunately, but it looks nicer.) * Get number of channels from platform_data instead of hardcoding it based on CONFIG_WHATEVER_CPU. * Give slave clients exclusive access to the channel Acked-by: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com>, Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <haavard.skinnemoen@atmel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2008-07-08dmatest: Simple DMA memcpy test clientHaavard Skinnemoen
This client tests DMA memcpy using various lengths and various offsets into the source and destination buffers. It will initialize both buffers with a repeatable pattern and verify that the DMA engine copies the requested region and nothing more. It will also verify that the bytes aren't swapped around, and that the source buffer isn't modified. The dmatest module can be configured to test a specific device, a specific channel. It can also test multiple channels at the same time, and it can start multiple threads competing for the same channel. Changes since v2: * Support testing multiple channels at the same time * Support testing with multiple threads competing for the same channel * Use counting test patterns in order to catch byte ordering issues Changes since v1: * Remove extra dashes around "help" * Remove "default n" from Kconfig * Turn TEST_BUF_SIZE into a module parameter * Return DMA_NAK instead of DMA_DUP * Print unhandled events * Support testing specific channels and devices * Move to the end of the Makefile Acked-by: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2008-07-08dmaengine: DMA engine driver for Marvell XOR engineSaeed Bishara
The XOR engine found in Marvell's SoCs and system controllers provides XOR and DMA operation, iSCSI CRC32C calculation, memory initialization, and memory ECC error cleanup operation support. This driver implements the DMA engine API and supports the following capabilities: - memcpy - xor - memset The XOR engine can be used by DMA engine clients implemented in the kernel, one of those clients is the RAID module. In that case, I observed 20% improvement in the raid5 write throughput, and 40% decrease in the CPU utilization when doing array construction, those results obtained on an 5182 running at 500Mhz. When enabling the NET DMA client, the performance decreased, so meanwhile it is recommended to keep this client off.

2008-02-06async_tx: kill tx_set_src and tx_set_dest methodsDan Williams
The tx_set_src and tx_set_dest methods were originally implemented to allow an array of addresses to be passed down from async_xor to the dmaengine driver while minimizing stack overhead. Removing these methods allows drivers to have all transaction parameters available at 'prep' time, saves two function pointers in struct dma_async_tx_descriptor, and reduces the number of indirect branches.. A consequence of moving this data to the 'prep' routine is that multi-source routines like async_xor need temporary storage to convert an array of linear addresses into an array of dma addresses. In order to keep the same stack footprint of the previous implementation the input array is reused as storage for the dma addresses. This requires that sizeof(dma_addr_t) be less than or equal to sizeof(void *). As a consequence CONFIG_DMADEVICES now depends on !CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G. It also requires that drivers be able to make descriptor resources available when the 'prep' routine is polled.

2007-11-29dmaengine: correct invalid assumptions in the Kconfig textHaavard Skinnemoen
This patch corrects recently changed (and now invalid) Kconfig descriptions for the DMA engine framework: - Non-Intel(R) hardware also has DMA engines; - DMA is used for more than memcpy and RAID offloading. In fact, on most platforms memcpy and RAID aren't factors, and DMA exists so that peripherals can transfer data to/from memory while the CPU does other work.

Continuing the work started in 411f0f3edc141a582190d3605cadd1d993abb6df ... This enables code with a dma path, that compiles away, to build without requiring additional code factoring. It also prevents code that calls dma_alloc_coherent and dma_free_coherent from linking whereas previously the code would hit a BUG() at run time. Finally, it allows archs that set !HAS_DMA to delete their asm/dma-mapping.h file.

2007-07-13dmaengine: driver for the iop32x, iop33x, and iop13xx raid enginesDan Williams
The Intel(R) IOP series of i/o processors integrate an Xscale core with raid acceleration engines. The capabilities per platform are: iop219: (2) copy engines iop321: (2) copy engines (1) xor and block fill engine iop33x: (2) copy and crc32c engines (1) xor, xor zero sum, pq, pq zero sum, and block fill engine iop34x (iop13xx): (2) copy, crc32c, xor, xor zero sum, and block fill engines (1) copy, crc32c, xor, xor zero sum, pq, pq zero sum, and block fill engine The driver supports the features of the async_tx api: * asynchronous notification of operation completion * implicit (interupt triggered) handling of inter-channel transaction dependencies The driver adapts to the platform it is running by two methods. 1/ #include <asm/arch/adma.h> which defines the hardware specific iop_chan_* and iop_desc_* routines as a series of static inline functions 2/ The private platform data attached to the platform_device defines the capabilities of the channels 20070626: Callbacks are run in a tasklet. Given the recent discussion on LKML about killing tasklets in favor of workqueues I did a quick conversion of the driver. Raid5 resync performance dropped from 50MB/s to 30MB/s, so the tasklet implementation remains until a generic softirq interface is available. Changelog: * fixed a slot allocation bug in do_iop13xx_adma_xor that caused too few slots to be requested eventually leading to data corruption * enabled the slot allocation routine to attempt to free slots before returning -ENOMEM * switched the cleanup routine to solely use the software chain and the status register to determine if a descriptor is complete. This is necessary to support other IOP engines that do not have status writeback capability * make the driver iop generic * modified the allocation routines to understand allocating a group of slots for a single operation * added a null xor initialization operation for the xor only channel on iop3xx * support xor operations on buffers larger than the hardware maximum * split the do_* routines into separate prep, src/dest set, submit stages * added async_tx support (dependent operations initiation at cleanup time) * simplified group handling * added interrupt support (callbacks via tasklets) * brought the pending depth inline with ioat (i.e. 4 descriptors) * drop dma mapping methods, suggested by Chris Leech * don't use inline in C files, Adrian Bunk * remove static tasklet declarations * make iop_adma_alloc_slots easier to read and remove chances for a corrupted descriptor chain * fix locking bug in iop_adma_alloc_chan_resources, Benjamin Herrenschmidt * convert capabilities over to dma_cap_mask_t * fixup sparse warnings * add descriptor flush before iop_chan_enable * checkpatch.pl fixes * gpl v2 only correction * move set_src, set_dest, submit to async_tx methods * move group_list and phys to async_tx Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2007-07-13async_tx: add the async_tx apiDan Williams
The async_tx api provides methods for describing a chain of asynchronous bulk memory transfers/transforms with support for inter-transactional dependencies. It is implemented as a dmaengine client that smooths over the details of different hardware offload engine implementations. Code that is written to the api can optimize for asynchronous operation and the api will fit the chain of operations to the available offload resources. I imagine that any piece of ADMA hardware would register with the 'async_*' subsystem, and a call to async_X would be routed as appropriate, or be run in-line. - Neil Brown async_tx exploits the capabilities of struct dma_async_tx_descriptor to provide an api of the following general format: struct dma_async_tx_descriptor * async_<operation>(..., struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *depend_tx, dma_async_tx_callback cb_fn, void *cb_param) { struct dma_chan *chan = async_tx_find_channel(depend_tx, <operation>); struct dma_device *device = chan ? chan->device : NULL; int int_en = cb_fn ? 1 : 0; struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx = device ? device->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_en) : NULL; if (tx) { /* run <operation> asynchronously */ ... tx->tx_set_dest(addr, tx, index); ... tx->tx_set_src(addr, tx, index); ... async_tx_submit(chan, tx, flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param); } else { /* run <operation> synchronously */ ... <operation> ... async_tx_sync_epilog(flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param); } return tx; } async_tx_find_channel() returns a capable channel from its pool. The channel pool is organized as a per-cpu array of channel pointers. The async_tx_rebalance() routine is tasked with managing these arrays. In the uniprocessor case async_tx_rebalance() tries to spread responsibility evenly over channels of similar capabilities. For example if there are two copy+xor channels, one will handle copy operations and the other will handle xor. In the SMP case async_tx_rebalance() attempts to spread the operations evenly over the cpus, e.g. cpu0 gets copy channel0 and xor channel0 while cpu1 gets copy channel 1 and xor channel 1. When a dependency is specified async_tx_find_channel defaults to keeping the operation on the same channel. A xor->copy->xor chain will stay on one channel if it supports both operation types, otherwise the transaction will transition between a copy and a xor resource. Currently the raid5 implementation in the MD raid456 driver has been converted to the async_tx api. A driver for the offload engines on the Intel Xscale series of I/O processors, iop-adma, is provided in a later commit. With the iop-adma driver and async_tx, raid456 is able to offload copy, xor, and xor-zero-sum operations to hardware engines. On iop342 tiobench showed higher throughput for sequential writes (20 - 30% improvement) and sequential reads to a degraded array (40 - 55% improvement). For the other cases performance was roughly equal, +/- a few percentage points. On a x86-smp platform the performance of the async_tx implementation (in synchronous mode) was also +/- a few percentage points of the original implementation. According to 'top' on iop342 CPU utilization drops from ~50% to ~15% during a 'resync' while the speed according to /proc/mdstat doubles from ~25 MB/s to ~50 MB/s. The tiobench command line used for testing was: tiobench --size 2048 --block 4096 --block 131072 --dir /mnt/raid --numruns 5 * iop342 had 1GB of memory available Details: * if CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=n the asynchronous path is compiled away by making async_tx_find_channel a static inline routine that always returns NULL * when a callback is specified for a given transaction an interrupt will fire at operation completion time and the callback will occur in a tasklet. if the the channel does not support interrupts then a live polling wait will be performed * the api is written as a dmaengine client that requests all available channels * In support of dependencies the api implicitly schedules channel-switch interrupts. The interrupt triggers the cleanup tasklet which causes pending operations to be scheduled on the next channel * Xor engines treat an xor destination address differently than a software xor routine. To the software routine the destination address is an implied source, whereas engines treat it as a write-only destination. This patch modifies the xor_blocks routine to take a an explicit destination address to mirror the hardware. Changelog: * fixed a leftover debug print * don't allow callbacks in async_interrupt_cond * fixed xor_block changes * fixed usage of ASYNC_TX_XOR_DROP_DEST * drop dma mapping methods, suggested by Chris Leech * printk warning fixups from Andrew Morton * don't use inline in C files, Adrian Bunk * select the API when MD is enabled * BUG_ON xor source counts <= 1 * implicitly handle hardware concerns like channel switching and interrupts, Neil Brown * remove the per operation type list, and distribute operation capabilities evenly amongst the available channels * simplify async_tx_find_channel to optimize the fast path * introduce the channel_table_initialized flag to prevent early calls to the api * reorganize the code to mimic crypto * include mm.h as not all archs include it in dma-mapping.h * make the Kconfig options non-user visible, Adrian Bunk * move async_tx under crypto since it is meant as 'core' functionality, and the two may share algorithms in the future * move large inline functions into c files * checkpatch.pl fixes * gpl v2 only correction Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Acked-By: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
