<content type='text'>
fw_csr_string() truncates and terminates target strings like strlcpy()
does.  Unlike strlcpy(), it returns the target strlen, not the source
strlen, hence users of fw_csr_string() are unable to detect truncation.

Point this behavior out in the kerneldoc comment.

<title>firewire: don't use PREPARE_DELAYED_WORK</title>

<content type='text'>
PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out.  They have few users
and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue
considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work
function.

firewire core-device and sbp2 have been been multiplexing work items
with multiple work functions.  Introduce fw_device_workfn() and
sbp2_lu_workfn() which invoke fw_device-&gt;workfn and
sbp2_logical_unit-&gt;workfn respectively and always use the two
functions as the work functions and update the users to set the
-&gt;workfn fields instead of overriding work functions using
PREPARE_DELAYED_WORK().

This fixes a variety of possible regressions since a2c1c57be8d9
"workqueue: consider work function when searching for busy work items"
due to which fw_workqueue lost its required non-reentrancy property.

<id>urn:sha1:94a87157cde95d38b9cdf1116e4f0fd93f6d25df</id>
<content type='text'>
FireWire upper layer drivers are converted from generic
    struct driver.probe() and .remove()
to bus-specific
    struct fw_driver.probe() and .remove().

The new .probe() adds a const struct ieee1394_device_id *id argument,
indicating the entry in the driver's device identifiers table which
matched the fw_unit to be probed.  This new argument is used by the
snd-firewire-speakers driver to look up device-specific parameters and
methods.  There is at least one other FireWire audio driver currently in
development in which this will be useful too.

The new .remove() drops the unused error return code.

Although all in-tree drivers are being converted to the new methods,
support for the old methods is left in place in this commit.  This
allows public developer trees to merge this commit and then move to the
new fw_driver methods.

v2: Stefan pointed out that add_client_resource() may be called from
    non-process context.  Preload iff @gfp_mask contains __GFP_WAIT.
    Also updated to include minor upper limit check.

fw_device_init() didn't check whether the allocated minor number isn't
too large.  Fail if it goes overflows MINORBITS.

Making this information available in sysfs allows to differentiate
between controllers in the local and remote Linux PCs, and thus is
useful for servers that are started with udev rules.

<title>firewire: core: fw_device_refresh(): clean up error handling</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=8527f8e2934683e53405fbe876a4e6f4a0c46eb8'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8527f8e2934683e53405fbe876a4e6f4a0c46eb8</id>
<content type='text'>
In fw_device_init() and fw_device_refresh(), if a call to
read_cofig_rom() fails, the operation is retried a few times, with
these retries being controlled by the MAX_RETRIES and RETRY_DELAY
symbols.

fw_device_refresh() also reads part of the config rom by calling
reread_config_rom().  Any errors from this call resulted in retries
with MAX_RETRIES/2 and RETRY_DELAY/2.

There is no reason to require that a device that has initiated a bus
reset must react faster to read requests than a device that has just
been plugged in.  Furthermore, if the config rom has changed, any
errors from the following read_config_rom() call are then handled
with the normal retry count and delay.

Remove this inconsistency by always using the normal retry count and
delay.  (This also makes the two error handlers identical and allows
merging them.)
