This commit adds a new driver for RME Fireface series. This commit just
creates/removes card instance according to IEEE 1394 bus event. More
functions will be added in following commits.
Just after appearing on IEEE 1394 bus, this unit generates several bus
resets. This is due to loading and enabling firmware from on-board flash
memory. Therefore, it's better to postopone calling snd_card_register()
(not yet).
Three types of firmware have been released by RME GmbH; for Fireface 400,
for Fireface 800 and for UCX/802/UFX. It's reasonable that these models
use different protocol for communication. Currently, I've investigated
Fireface 400 and nothing others.

The FF400 and FF800 firmwares are pretty much the same. The control
protocol does differ between the two but at a fundamental level they are the
same - especially where streaming is concerned. They are similar enough
that it would not make sense to implement a separate driver for the FF800.
You are correct in concluding that the latter is a totally new firmware. In
addition to the UFX/UCX/802 RME have also ported as much as is relevant to
the FF800. The mixer interface (which doesn't directly concern ALSA) is
completely different. I have not yet investigated the streaming part in
full but my initial investigations suggest that it may not be significantly
different.
> It's reasonable that these models use different protocol for

For FF400 and FF800 the streaming protocol is very similar. I expect the
same to hold for the newer devices too, but will be able to say more once I
get a chance to fully probe the UFX. In other words, at this stage it is
fair to say that the streaming component for all devices will be similar,
and there is probably no reason to consider there being three completely
different firmwares. There are obviously some differences which will need
to be allowed for in places, but the same is true for almost every device
family.
In the patch:

Though the unit version field of the ConfigROM.
Once I get my head around git and how best to keep track of these patch
series I can provide a patch for this. Despite several attempts to truly
understand git over the last few years I have so far failed abysmally. :-(

If so, why the vendor (RME GmbH) produces these different firmwares?
Could I request your opinions about it?

Currently, I have no direction to support models except for FF400
because I've never seen their packets. Even if you insists that they are
similar, actually they're somewhat different (and I guess that the
difference is larger than you expect, at least, isochronous packet
streaming management).

The hardware used is different in each model. The Fireface product line is
FPGA-based and as such the "firmware" (which is as much to do with the FPGA
bitstream as it is to do with software) is very tightly bound to the exact
nature of the componentry which the FPGA needs to interface with. This is
why there are separate firmwares for each model. However, the programming
interface exposed to the bus by the different firmwares have a high degree
of similarity. There are some differences which are mostly evolutionary,
corresponding to improved ways to implement things in the FPGA, better PCB
layour, and so on. However, the basic ideas remain the same. This applies
to the FF400 and FF800 and I expect the streaming portion of the newer units
as well.
RME has revised the signal routing and control portions of their interfaces
in the last few years which has, I expect, changed the way mixer and DSP
control is implemented. I expect this doesn't impact the streaming
components significantly, although as noted earlier I need to confirm this.
This newer implementation is known as TotalMixFX while the earlier one was
referred to as TotalMix.
To summarise, the firmware which goes into an RME Fireface interface is
predominantly an FPGA configuration bitstream and is therefore tightly bound
to the underlying hardware. Therefore there is per-device firmware.
However, the exposed interface remains consistent across devices.
Does that address your concerns, or have I misinterpreted what you are
asking or referring to?

I have been working with both the FF400 and the FF800 at the driver level
since 2009. I am intimately familiar with the isochronous streaming systems
of both and don't have to guess what the differences might be. I know what
the differences are, and as I eluded to earlier they are not much more than
superficial.

RME Fireface series doesn't transfer MIDI messages on isochronous packets.
The messages are transferred in asynchronous transactions.
The unit handles MIDI messages in asynchronous transactions transmitted in
two addresses; 0x000008018000 and 0x000008019000. These two are
corresponding to physical MIDI port 1 and 2.
The unit transfers MIDI messages by asynchronous transactions to certain
addresses. Drivers can decide 4 byte in LSB of the addresses by a write
transaction to 0x0000801003f4. Drivers have four options to the rest;
0x000000000, 0x00000080, 0x00000100, 0x00000180. Drivers can enable them
by write transactions to 0x00008010051c. This register may consist of
bit flags and writing zero bit has no effect. Reading this register
always returns 0x00000000. In this mechanism, drivers cannot use Private
space of IEEE 1212 in which they allow to add some side effects to
read/write transactions.
This commit adds transaction support for MIDI messaging. To receive
asynchronous transactions, the driver allocates a range of address in
Memory space. The driver selects 0x00000000 as the 8 byte of LSB of the
address, thus the driver retries to allocate when gaining unusable range.

SND_FF_MAXIMIM_MIDI_QUADS does not have the value 1.

As far as I can see, sending one of the "undefined" bytes can stop the
stream permanently. Invalid bytes need to be acked to ignore/remove
them.

Oops. It's my mistake to left the message as what it had been.
Originally, I programmed to retrieve one byte. Later, I investigated the
maximum message size and changed the code.

Exactly. We should find better way to handle such messages. Do you have
any good ideas?

Hm. This looks simple and works better, while I suspect that this is
appropriate to device driver, because this idea drops the message from
userspace. This is against a principle that device drivers just pass
data from a side to another side without censoring and modification.
I think it better to transfer the message to the device, even if it's
invalid in MIDI spec. It's what the userspace wants.
Thanks

The code takes care to send entire MIDI messages.
Is that actually required by the FF? (Windows does not have a raw MIDI
interface, so this problem could not happen there.)

Windows driver performs it so I immitate it.
I confirmed that bytes of one MIDI message in continuous two
asynchronous transactions are handled correctly. So we can purge the
codes for calculation of the number of bytes in the MIDI message.

In previous commit, fireface driver supports transaction functionality.
This commit adds MIDI functionality for userspace.
Userspace applications can always disable this functionality by sending
invalid values to 0x0000801003f4 and 0x00008010051c in write transactions.

Thanks a lot! I was waiting for this. And I'll observe an ALSA-FW development (I mainly intersted in RME driver).

The number which FFADO writes to this register is not invalid: it is in fact
the same number which is used in drivers on other operating systems
(obtained from protocol analysis).

As above, this is not exactly a bug because other systems set that register
to the value which FFADO uses. In the interests of interoperability I'm
willing to remove manipulation of this register from FFADO, but I suggest
that in time the ALSA driver should consider setting this register as is
done under other systems or else we could introduce subtle behavioural
differences down the track - at least until such time as we understand what
the high part of that register does.

No.
As long as I tested with a debug option to firewire-ohci module, it
sends write transaction with '01000000'. This value includes invalid
node ID.
ConfigRom::getNodeId() returns the invalid value. I think there's
something wrong coding, such like forgetting initialization or update of
the instance.

Curious. Fair enough (although I was confused by the reference to the
"higher part" in the commit message: it implied the higher part of the
address in my mind, but in fact the issue with the node ID relates to the
lower part. Whatever. I'll look into it at some point.

In IEEE 1212 (or ISO/IEC 13213), 64 bit addressing is defined. IEEE 1394
utilize the specification.
Here is a actual example of the 64 bit address:
* FFC1'FFFF'F000'0904 (oPCR[0] in node FFC1)
* FFC2'FFFE'0000'0000 (the first address of Private space in node FFC2)
* FFC3'ECC0'8000'0000 (the address of Echo Fireworks Command in node FFC3)
I mean the 'higher part' is 4 byte in MSB of the address. Drivers
register the 4 byte to 0x'0000'8010'03f4, then Fireface 400 transfers
asynchronous transactions to an address including the 4 byte in its MSB.

More explaination.
If OHCI 1394 host controller gets node ID of FFC7 on the IEEE 1394 bus
and ALSA Fireface driver allocates local address of 0x'4567'0000'0000 of
the controller, then the driver must register the value of '0xFFC74567'
to Fireface 400.
Actually, for Fireface 400, the value should be aligned to little
endiann. Therefore, the driver sends write transaction with value of
'0x6745C7FF'.
In my understanding, 0x0000 for node ID is invalid. Furthermore, 0x0010
is not always true because the address range which drivers allocate on
the controller is different depending on situation.

In general that's true. For the FF400 at least though the non-nodeID
component is effectively hard coded on other systems. If this is used
solely as an address then we wouldn't have to follow that convention
obviously, but this assertion would have to be confirmed valid in practice.

I think you mention about a part of value except for node ID. In my
former example (0xFFC74567), it's 0x4547.
You mean that Fireface 400 ignores the part and sends transactions to
the fixed local address (i.e. 0x'0001'0000'0000).
Although, this is against the fact that I got in my experiences with
Fireface 400. The model can reasonably send transactions to the address
which the driver registered.

Yes, that's what I was referring to. Sorry for not being clearer.

Right. Node ID is in the upper 16 bits, and another value (0x4547 in the
above example) in the lower 16 bits.

No, what I meant was that the low part (the 0x4547 in your example) is
always 0x0001 on other systems for the FF400. Apologies for the confusion.

Ok, that's good. It means we're free to choose exactly what suits us.

That's just because this value happens to be the first free address in
the FireWire address space. If you had other FireWire devices whose
drivers allocated addresses, you would see different values. (Maybe
even for multiple FF devices, but the driver might be able to share the
range for all devices.)

It's hardcoded (in the way I subsequently detailed) on at least one other
(non-Linux) system: when that particular FF400 register is written the upper
16 bits are a node ID and the lower 16 bits are unconditionally set to
0x0001. That's not to say that this is the best way, but it's what's done
on that system, with all the caveats that this implies.
In the above system there is no explicit consideration of what addresses
happen to be free. The address which is chosen does not appear to be the
lowest free address: there would be plenty unused addresses below it in
general.

For this reason (that is, other drivers/devices grabbing the resulting
address range) the methodology I detailed above for choosing the target
address is perhaps not the most appropriate for Linux. Takashi S's tests
indicate that there is no hidden functionality controlled by the lower 16
bits of this register so we are free to adopt our own address selection
philosphy.

The multiple FF400 case would, I expect, be disambiguated by the inclusion
of the node ID in the register value (and hense the address listened to).
