to check the status property in their probe routines.
Simplebus used to only instantiate its children whose status="okay"
but that was improper behavior, fixed in r261352. Now that it doesn't
check anymore and probes all its children; the children all have to
do the check because really only the children know how to properly
interpret their status property strings.
Right now all existing drivers only understand "okay" versus something-
that's-not-okay, so they all use the new ofw_bus_status_okay() helper.
register from a bus space resource.
Note that this macro is just for ARM, and is intended to have a short
lifespan. The DMA engines in some SoCs need the physical address of a
memory-mapped device register as one of the arguments for the transfer.
Several scattered ad-hoc solutions have been converted to use this macro,
which now also serves to mark the places where a more complete fix needs
to be applied (after that fix has been designed).
Major changes:
* Finally tracked down the flow control setting that
seems to have been causing TX stalls and watchdog timeouts
* RX and TX paths now share a lot more code
* TX interrupt is no longer used; we instead GC finished
tx queue entries at the bottom of the start routine.
* TX start now queues fragmented packets directly; it only
invokes defrag() for occasional very fragmented packets.
* "sysctl dev.cpsw" dumps controller statistics and queue counts
* Host Error Interrupt will give extensive debugging information
if the controller chokes on the queued data.
TX stalls in this driver, I've also had some
time to evaluate the effectiveness of different
watchdog strategies.
This is the latest attempt, which consolidates
all of the watchdog logic in one place and
consistently detects TX stalls and resets within
a couple of seconds.
(as used in AM335x SoC for BeagleBone).
Among other things:
* Watchdog reset doesn't hang the driver.
* Disconnecting cable doesn't hang the driver.
* ifconfig up/down doesn't hang the driver
* Out-of-memory no longer panics the driver.
Known issues:
* Doesn't have good support for fragmented packets
(calls m_defrag() on TX, assumes RX packets are never fragmented)
* Promisc and allmulti still unimplimented
* addmulti and delmulti still unimplemented
* TX queue still stalls (but watchdog now consistently recovers in ~5s)
* No sysctl monitoring
* Only supports port0
* No switch configuration support
* Not tested on anything but BeagleBone
Committed from: BeagleBone
* Record TX mbufs when we get them so we can release them.
* Set TX/RX mbuf slots to NULL when we are no longer responsible for them
* Move dma sync on RX into RX intr routine
