Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they
pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long'
argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended
on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an
unsigned type.
However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'
argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are
8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.
Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that
were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any
users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments.
This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find
on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the
moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE()
because there are probably still architecture specific users
elsewhere.
Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off
using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'.
The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for
is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove
the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'.
For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions
are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior.
I was using this definition for testing:
#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \
unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO))
which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with
the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed
to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time
warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument.
I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended
up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After
the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion
(fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus
asked me to send the whole thing again.

ioatdma by default is in snoop mode. Relaxed ordering according to spec
does not do anything in snoop mode. However, it causes hang or significant
performance degrade when tested with NTB. Disabling in the driver due to
some BIOS do not configure it correctly.

Currently the following DT description would result in dmac0 always
being tried first and dmac1 second if dmac0 was unavailable. This
results in heavier use of dmac0 then of dmac1. This patch adds an
approximate average distribution over the two nodes lessening the load
of anyone of them.

dmas = <&dmac0 0x77>, <&dmac0 0x78>,

When the ccerr handler is called but the error registers indicate no error
events we need to command eDMA to re-evaluate the errors. Otherwise we can

In order to create a relationship model between the channels and the
management object, we are adding support for object hierarchy to the
drivers. This patch simplifies the userspace application development.
We will not have to traverse different firmware paths based on device
tree or ACPI based kernels.
No matter what flavor of kernel is used, objects will be represented as
platform devices.
The new layout is as follows:
hidmam_10: hidma-mgmt@0x5A000000 {
compatible = "qcom,hidma-mgmt-1.0";
...
hidma_10: hidma@0x5a010000 {
compatible = "qcom,hidma-1.0";
...
}
}
The hidma_mgmt_init detects each instance of the hidma-mgmt-1.0 objects
in device tree and calls into the channel driver to create platform devices
for each child of the management object.

Add debugfs hooks for debugging the execution behavior of the DMA
channel. The debugfs hooks get initialized by the probe function and
uninitialized by the remove function.
A stats file is created in debugfs. The stats file will show the
information about each HIDMA channel as well as each asynchronous job
queued and completed at a given time.

This patch implements the hardware hooks for the HIDMA channel driver.
The main functions of interest are:
- hidma_ll_init
- hidma_ll_request
- hidma_ll_queue_request
- hidma_ll_hw_start
OS layer calls the hidma_ll_init function during probe to set up the
hardware. At this moment, the number of supported descriptors are also
given. On each request, a descriptor is allocated from the free pool and
filled in with the transfer parameters. Multiple requests can be queued
into the hardware via the OS interface. When client is ready for requests
to be executed, start method is called.
Completions are delivered via callbacks via tasklet.
