The kernel was using the vendor ID 0xd00d1e, which was inherited from
the old ieee1394 driver stack.  However, this ID was not registered, and
invalid.

Instead, use the vendor/model IDs that are now officially assigned to
the kernel:
https://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/IEEE_OUI_Assignments

[stefanr:
  - The vendor ID 001f11 is Openmoko, Inc.'s identifier, registered at
    IEEE Registration Authority.
  - The range of model IDs 023900...0239ff are the Linux kernel 1394
    subsystem's identifiers, registered at Openmoko.
  - Model ID 023901 is picked by the subsystem developers as
    firewire-core's model ID.]

<title>firewire: Enable remote DMA above 4 GB</title>

<content type='text'>
This makes all of a machine's memory accessible to remote debugging via
FireWire, using the physical response unit (i.e. RDMA) of OHCI-1394 link
layer controllers.

This requires actual support by the controller.  The only ones currently
known to support it are Agere/LSI FW643.  Most if not all other OHCI-1394
controllers do not implement the optional Physical Upper Bound register.
With them, RDMA will continue to be limited to the lowermost 4 GB.

firewire-ohci's startup message in the kernel log is augmented to tell
whether the controller does expose more than 4 GB to RDMA.

While OHCI-1394 allows for a maximum Physical Upper Bound of
0xffff'0000'0000 (near 256 TB), this implementation sets it to
0x8000'0000'0000 (128 TB) in order to avoid interference with applications
that require interrupt-served asynchronous request reception at
respectively low addresses.

Note, this change does not switch remote DMA on.  It only increases the
range of remote access to all memory (instead of just 4 GB) whenever
remote DMA was switched on by other means.  The latter is achieved by
setting firewire-ohci's remote_dma parameter, or if the physical DMA
filter is opened through firewire-sbp2.

Derived from patch "firewire: Enable physical DMA above 4GB" by
Peter Hurley &lt;peter@hurleysoftware.com&gt; from March 27, 2013.

<title>firewire: addendum to address handler RCU conversion</title>

<content type='text'>
Follow up on commit c285f6ff6787 "firewire: remove global lock around
address handlers, convert to RCU":

  - address_handler_lock no longer serializes the address handler, only
    its function to serialize updates to the list of handlers remains.
    Rename the lock to address_handler_list_lock.

  - Callers of fw_core_remove_address_handler() must be able to sleep.
    Comment on this in the API documentation.

  - The counterpart fw_core_add_address_handler() is by nature something
    which is used in process context.  Replace spin_lock_bh() by
    spin_lock() in fw_core_add_address_handler() and in
    fw_core_remove_address_handler(), and document that process context
    is now required for fw_core_add_address_handler().

  - Extend the documentation of fw_address_callback_t.

<id>urn:sha1:35202f7d8420fff586b372422a2419affeaba8ef</id>
<content type='text'>
Upper-layer handlers for inbound requests were called with a spinlock
held by firewire-core.  Calling into upper layers with a lower layer
lock held is generally a bad idea.

What's more, since commit ea102d0ec475 "firewire: core: convert AR-req
handler lock from _irqsave to _bh", a caller of fw_send_request() i.e.
initiator of outbound request could no longer do that while having
interrupts disabled, if the local node was addressed by that request.

In order to make all this more flexible, convert the management of
address ranges and handlers from a global lock around readers and
writers to RCU (and a remaining global lock for writers).  As a minor
side effect, handling of inbound requests at different cards and of
local requests is now no longer serialized.  (There is still per-card
serialization of remote requests since firewire-ohci uses a single DMA
tasklet for inbound request events.)

In other words, address handlers are now called in an RCU read-side
critical section instead of from within a spin_lock_bh serialized
section.

(Changelog rewritten by Stefan R.)

Prevent userspace applications from allocating low memory address
ranges.  Otherwise, if some application happens to allocate such
a range and intends for a remote node to access it, and if that node
also implements SBP-2 (which will become more likely with the upcoming
SBP-2 target support), these accesses would be routed by the physical
DMA unit to some wrong memory address.

<title>firewire: Add function to get speed from opaque struct fw_request</title>

Sometimes it's useful to know the FireWire speed of the request that has
just come in to a fw_address_handler callback. As struct fw_request is
opaque we can't peek inside to get the speed out of the struct fw_packet
that's just inside. For example, the SBP-2 spec says:

"The speed at which the block write request to the MANAGEMENT_AGENT
register is received shall determine the speed used by the target for
all subsequent requests to read the initiator’s configuration ROM, fetch
ORB’s from initiator memory or store status at the initiator’s
status_FIFO. Command block ORB’s separately specify the speed for
requests addressed to the data buffer or page table."
