Hello,

Writing a driver using SCLPC on the MPC5200B I detected, that the
intspec arrays to map irqs to Linux virq cannot be const, because the
mapping and xlate functions only take non const pointers. All those
functions do not modify the intspec, so a const pointer could be used.

I tried to compile that patch on different platforms and got no
compiler errors, so I'd like to ask you to review that patch, and
check if it's worth using it.

Looks good.

I'll give it a go and if it doesn't break anything, will apply.

Cheers,
Ben.

Okay by me too.

BTW, if you're interested, there is a driver for the SCLPC FIFO about
to be merged into 2.6.33.  It's in Ben's tree waiting to be pulled
into mainline.

I've had a "look" into it. This means I rewrote it in some parts to
get it running.

First I tried to do it in nice little steps, so the git commits are
clean and simple. But with my knowldege about the SCLPC, the code your
old SCLPC test driver and my 2.4.25 FPGA driver using SCLPS and
BestComm, one of the commits just got a big rewrite including fixes
for quite some bugs.

The driver is now running using DMA TX and RX. Without BestComm it's
running partly. I'm really windering if this code ever ran before?
There are some historical or future items in there like measurement of
the times, a list_header maybe for future request queueing, and so on.

If you or Ben are interested in my work I can post the patches
here. Of course just to get some comments, because the driver can't be
ready in the state it is. The commits would go on top of Ben's next
branch.

Yes, I'm using the driver in a couple of projects.  It works for me
for both RX and TX (although TX+DMA has been troublesome).  I'll
double check to make sure I've merged all of my patches for the
driver.

The test driver on the other hand is pretty poor code.  Don't expect
much from it other than some hints.  There's a reason I didn't merge
that chunk.

Yes, please post the patches and cc: me.  I'll review, test, and make comments.

That's what I found out.

I brought it up to speed before using it.

I hope it's ok that I've copied them to my web space instead of
providing patches in a mail. The URL is:

  http://www.fietze-home.de/telemotive/linux-2.6-telemotive-mpc.git

Branches:

  benh-next-lpbfifo
    the modified version of the LocalPlus platform driver

  benh-next-localplus-test
    your old test driver, now using the platform driver


Both branches are on top of the benh next branch.


I could only test the driver using fifo and bcom mode in read mode,
using your old test driver, because I currently do not yet have a
target with a writeable device on the LocalPlus. The test ran fine
using different transer sizes starting at 4 up to 128KiB.

I will now port our FPGA driver to use the platform driver, which can
deliver a very high load, and supports writing.

The biggest problem using DMA is the unpredictable order of arrival of
the two interrupts. They both depend on the appropriate load of the
system generating them. In the case of the BestComm a parallel load on
e.g. FEC or ATA can delay the bcom gen bd interrupt until it's task
gets scheduled again, which can take "some time" due its low BestComm
prio of 2. The second problem was, that the original driver does not
use the flush bit to avoid stale RX data.

"Access Forbidden!"

It is easier for me though if you post them to the list.  Then I can
just hit "reply to all" and make comments on the code.

git-fetch should have worked. It's a git tree prepared using

Ok, I'll do so. I hope I've understood what
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/ says about creating
suitable patches for mailing lists.


Patch description:

This is a series of patches on top of the benh next branch modifying
the platform LocalPlus driver for the MPC5200B. This includes
formatting changes in the first step, switching to a structure
describing the SCLPC registers, making DMA work, making unloading the
module work and so on.
