[PATCH] arch: hexagon: Kconfig: add HAVE_DMA_ATTR in Kconfig and remove "linux/dma-mapping.h" from "asm/dma-mapping.h"

[Chen Gang]

When HAS_DMA, and also need use generic implementation, HAVE_DMA_ATTR
must be enabled, or can not pass compiling with allmodconfig, the
related error:

    CC [M]  drivers/ata/libata-core.o
  drivers/ata/libata-core.c: In function 'ata_sg_clean':
  drivers/ata/libata-core.c:4598:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'dma_unmap_sg' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  drivers/ata/libata-core.c: In function 'ata_sg_setup':
  drivers/ata/libata-core.c:4708:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'dma_map_sg' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

"linux/dma-mapping.h" will include "asm/dma-mapping.h", so need remove
"linux/dma-mapping.h" from "asm/dma-mapping.h",

[PATCH 0/2] arch: hexagon: include: asm: add prefix "vm_" for all enum members in "hexagon_vm.h"

[Chen Gang]

Append "vm_" to all enum members (which are too common to make conflict
with another sub-systems). The related error with allmodconfig:

    CC [M]  drivers/md/raid1.o
  drivers/md/raid1.c:1440:13: error: 'status' redeclared as different kind of symbol
  arch/hexagon/include/asm/hexagon_vm.h:76:2: note: previous definition of 'status' was here

Also fix a typo issue: use 'affinity' instead of 'locdis' for
__vmintop_affinity() in "hexagon_vm.h"

All __vmintop_*() use  __vmintop(*, ...), so __vmintop_affinity() need
use __vmintop(vm_affinity, ...).

Oh, sorry, The new prefix "vm_" is still conflict with others. One case
is below (bottom of this mail)

I will use "hvmc_" for VM_CACHE_OPS and "hvmi_" for VM_INT_OPS instead
of. If get no rejections within 1 day, I will send patch v2 for it.

And also I will merge the related 2 patches together (although they are
for 2 issues).

pr_devel is commonly compiled out completely unless DEBUG is #defined.
You probably want to use pr_debug here.

[PATCH v2] drivers: staging: media: go7007: go7007-usb.c use pr_*() instead of dev_*() before 'go' initialized in go7007_usb_probe()

[Chen Gang]

dev_*() assumes 'go' is already initialized, so need use pr_*() instead
of before 'go' initialized. Related warning (with allmodconfig under
hexagon):

Also remove useless code after 'return' statement.

This should all be fixed in my staging-linus branch already, right?  No
need for this anymore from what I can tell, sorry.

That's all right (in fact don't need sorry).  :-)

And excuse me, I am not quite familiar upstream kernel version merging
and branches. Is it still better/suitable/possible to sync some bug fix
patches from staging brach to next brach?

[PATCH v2] arch: hexagon: include: asm: add prefix "hvm[ci]_" for all enum members in "hexagon_vm.h"

[Chen Gang]

Append "hvmc_" or "hvmi_" to all related enum members (which are too
common to make conflict with another sub-systems). The related error
with allmodconfig:

    CC [M]  drivers/md/raid1.o
  drivers/md/raid1.c:1440:13: error: 'status' redeclared as different kind of symbol
  arch/hexagon/include/asm/hexagon_vm.h:76:2: note: previous definition of 'status' was here

Also use 'affinity' instead of 'locdis' for __vmintop_affinity().

Oh, it is.

Hmm... for me, this work flow still can be implemented with a little
clearer way (at least it will avoid related warning):

I don't think that's better than the (fairly obvious) fall-through, and
has a pretty odd goto. Also, depending on the compiler, it still knows
the previous case label and doesn't warn.

Yeah, fall-through is obvious. But check 'A' again just near by "case A"
seems a little strange, and some of compilers (or some of versions) are
really not quit smart enough to know it is not a warning.

Hmm... for me, if the code (implementation) can express real logical
work flow as much as directly and simply, the code (implementation) is
clear enough (don't mind whether use 'goto' or not).


And originally, at first, I am really not quite careful enough, and sent
an incorrect patch after noticed the related compiler's warning. :-)

Sorry, the paragraph above may lead misunderstanding, I repeated again:

 - fall-through is obvious (although I did not notice it, originally).

 - Check 'A' again just near by "case A" seems a little strange.

 - Some compilers aren't quit smart enough to know 'chanctx_conf' is OK.

I know. If you have any good ideas of how to make it more obvious to the
compiler, I'm all ears, I just don't like any of the solutions offered
so far (and you aren't the first to do so either) :-)

FWIW, I find the label to be odd because if you're familiar with the
code then AP/AP_VLAN *should* be identical except for two special things
that are now linearly & neatly handled in the code (the first being the
4-addr station, the second the chanctx assignment which always has to be
done regardless of 4-addr). IMHO the == check after case should be
enough to make a human reader take a closer look. I understand that you
didn't and that's OK since you were just trying to squelch compile
warnings, but I don't see that this one warrants much attention.

The label/test could be moved to save a couple of lines
of duplicated code.

Hmm... for me, it must be an implementation which can satisfy all of us.

If ieee80211_subif_start_xmit() is not performance sensitive (I guess
so), we can use some short static functions instead of some code blocks
within ieee80211_subif_start_xmit().

 - ieee80211_subif_start_xmit() is a long function (600+ lines).

 - use short static function can share some code.

 - if code can be shared, the work flow can be more clearer too (don't
   need fall-through or goto).


And I guess, the implementation below can cause panic when
"sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_AP_VLAN".  :-(

Oh, one typo issue (need use 400+ instead of 600+), it is a long
function (although not quite long).

Good try, but no, now ap_sdata isn't even assigned. :)

Frankly, I'm getting tired of discussing this. Please don't try to
rewrite this code until you've understood it. You suggesting that
"start_xmit()" isn't a performance sensitive function makes me realize
you haven't even tried.

OK, thank you for "you are getting tired ...". Please help try when you
have time.  :-)

No I didn't try -- so use 'if' and 'guess' for discussing.

Hmm... if it is performance sensitive:

 - use static function instead of some code block and try to share them.
   it adds additional instructions, but can shrink binary code size.
   if the performance is acceptable, it is the best way to me.

 - else (1st way not acceptable), use macro instead of static function.
   it expends binary code size, but can save some instructions.
   if the performance is acceptable, it is the acceptable way to me.

 - If neither of static function nor macro are acceptable,
   I still prefer to use 'goto' instead of 'fall-through'.
   that can let all compilers feel well, and can not feel any strange.

     normally, when prev case uses fall-through,
     it need be sure of next case need not notice about it (prev case).
     or it will make a little strange for readers when read next case.


Welcome any suggestions or completions.

Thanks.

Sorry but the "SCSILIB_SP" name doesn't look very descriptive to me.
There are probably better choices possible. How about using e.g.
SG_POOL() instead ?

Right.  Oh well.  There's no improving this without
significant rewrite.  Even then, there may not be much
overall improvement.

btw: Chen, I think fall-throughs are fine as long as
they are commented appropriately.

Hmm... for me, when use fall-through, need 2 things:

 - need a comment.

 - next case need not notice about prev case which fall-through.


If we can not fit the 2 things above, either can not use sub functions
or macros for it because of performance reason, 'goto' is better than
'fall-through'.

For me, in most cases, when a function becomes a long function, it is
always better to use sub-fuctions or macros instead of some blocks (but
it is really not urgent :-) ).

No, this is the wrong thing to do.  Exported headers should be namespace
protected, so the thing wrong is what's exporting the problem to us,
namely hexagon.

If one issue occurs, normally, both sides need improvement.

For our issue:

 - need try to keep uapi no touch ("arch/hexagon/uapi/asm/registers.h").

 - improving our module is much easier than improving hexagon.

 - for 'SP', it is really short enough to like a register name.
   SG_POOL seems more suitable for our 'sgpool' related operations.


It will be better to improve hexagon too, but it is not quit easy (maybe
have to bear it), it is uapi :-(

I could see an improvement if we were to actually make changes to assign
the pointer based on the iftype, when that changes, so that each
function only has to handle the right type and we don't need the switch
statement at all...

But that's tricky to get right and I'm between vacations and holidays
and all that ...

I can't speak for SCSI, but that define in Hexagon isn't really used outside
of that file anyways (the two SP macros themselves).  I'm also pretty sure
the userspace isn't currently using it anyways.  Seeing as it's not really
buying us anything, I'm fine with just removing it and continuing to review
the other defines.  I'll make that change and test it locally.

OK, thanks, it is one of good ideas to me (which I can not find).  :-)

It is really not urgent, and for keeping quality, it is necessary to
spend suitable time resource (e.g 1 hour or more) to  make, review and
test this kind of patch carefully by oneself.

So could you please help improve it when you have suitable related time
resources?


Thanks.

[PATCH v2] drivers: scsi: scsi_lib.c: use SG_POOL instead of SP

[Chen Gang]

the macro SP is too common to make conflict with others, so recommend
to use another more readable and non-conflict macro SG_POOL instead of
(and recommend others do not use SP either).

The related warning (with allmodconfig for hexagon):

    CC [M]  drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.o
  drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:46:0: warning: "SP" redefined [enabled by default]
  arch/hexagon/include/uapi/asm/registers.h:9:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition

Re: [PATCH] drivers: staging: ft1000: ft1000-usb: initialize 'status' with STATUS_SUCCESS in request_code_segment()

[Chen Gang]

Oh, another member has already fixed it (found earlier than me), and
integrated it into next-20131203 tree, so this patch is obsoleted.

The related git commit is "8aced95 staging: ft1000: fix use of
potentially uninitialized variable"

Thanks.

No. Who are you to suggest what I need to work on?

I am one of volunteers for Open Source, and I don't care about who I am.

Since this thread is started by me, I have duty to try my best to let it
finish (but may fail).

According to our original discussion, it seems we agree that I am not
the suitable member to finish it, so I suggest you or another members to
try.


Thanks.

There's nothing to finish here. The code is fine. The compiler is wrong,
but we haven't found a way to shut up the compiler without breaking the
code. Please let's just let it rest.

For me, I still stick to the code can be improved, although it is not
urgent.

But just like you said, we can just stop discussing -- every members can
save their own opinions.

And I am not the related maintainer, so if no additional suggestions,
discussions or completions, I will/should stop here.


Thanks.
