* rapidio/tsi721_dma: rework scatter-gather list handlingAlexandre Bounine2014-08-091-3/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rework Tsi721 RapidIO DMA engine support to allow handling data scatter/gather lists longer than number of hardware buffer descriptors in the DMA channel's descriptor list. The current implementation of Tsi721 DMA transfers requires that number of entries in a scatter/gather list provided by a caller of dmaengine_prep_rio_sg() should not exceed number of allocated hardware buffer descriptors. This patch removes the limitation by processing long scatter/gather lists by sections that can be transferred using hardware descriptor ring of configured size. It also introduces a module parameter "dma_desc_per_channel" to allow run-time configuration of Tsi721 hardware buffer descriptor rings.

* rapidio: rework device hierarchy and introduce mport class of devicesAlexandre Bounine2014-04-081-8/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes an artificial RapidIO bus root device and establishes actual device hierarchy by providing reference to real parent devices. It also introduces device class for RapidIO controller devices (on-chip or an eternal bridge, known as "mport"). Existing implementation was sufficient for SoC-based platforms that have a single RapidIO controller. With introduction of devices using multiple RapidIO controllers and PCIe-to-RapidIO bridges the old scheme is very limiting or does not work at all. The implemented changes allow to properly reference platform's local RapidIO mport devices and provide device details needed for upper layers. This change to RapidIO device hierarchy does not break any known existing kernel or user space interfaces.

* RapidIO: add mport driver for Tsi721 bridgeAlexandre Bounine2011-11-031-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add RapidIO mport driver for IDT TSI721 PCI Express-to-SRIO bridge device. The driver provides full set of callback functions defined for mport devices in RapidIO subsystem. It also is compatible with current version of RIONET driver (Ethernet over RapidIO messaging services). This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from 2.6.39.
