[ Upstream commit 7ed4380009e96d9e9c605e12822e987b35b05648 ] If we are bus manager and the bus has inconsistent gap counts, send a bus reset immediately instead of trying to read the root node's config ROM first. Otherwise, we could spend a lot of time trying to read the config ROM but never succeeding. This eliminates a 50+ second delay before the FireWire bus is usable after a newly connected device is powered on in certain circumstances. The delay occurs if a gap count inconsistency occurs, we are not the root node, and we become bus manager. One scenario that causes this is with a TI XIO2213B OHCI, the first time a Sony DSR-25 is powered on after being connected to the FireWire cable. In this configuration, the Linux box will not receive the initial PHY configuration packet sent by the DSR-25 as IRM, resulting in the DSR-25 having a gap count of 44 while the Linux box has a gap count of 63. FireWire devices have a gap count parameter, which is set to 63 on power-up and can be changed with a PHY configuration packet. This determines the duration of the subaction and arbitration gaps. For reliable communication, all nodes on a FireWire bus must have the same gap count. A node may have zero or more of the following roles: root node, bus manager (BM), isochronous resource manager (IRM), and cycle master. Unless a root node was forced with a PHY configuration packet, any node might become root node after a bus reset. Only the root node can become cycle master. If the root node is not cycle master capable, the BM or IRM should force a change of root node. After a bus reset, each node sends a self-ID packet, which contains its current gap count. A single bus reset does not change the gap count, but two bus resets in a row will set the gap count to 63. Because a consistent gap count is required for reliable communication, IEEE 1394a-2000 requires that the bus manager generate a bus reset if it detects that the gap count is inconsistent. When the gap count is inconsistent, build_tree() will notice this after the self identification process. It will set card->gap_count to the invalid value 0. If we become bus master, this will force bm_work() to send a bus reset when it performs gap count optimization. After a bus reset, there is no bus manager. We will almost always try to become bus manager. Once we become bus manager, we will first determine whether the root node is cycle master capable. Then, we will determine if the gap count should be changed. If either the root node or the gap count should be changed, we will generate a bus reset. To determine if the root node is cycle master capable, we read its configuration ROM. bm_work() will wait until we have finished trying to read the configuration ROM. However, an inconsistent gap count can make this take a long time. read_config_rom() will read the first few quadlets from the config ROM. Due to the gap count inconsistency, eventually one of the reads will time out. When read_config_rom() fails, fw_device_init() calls it again until MAX_RETRIES is reached. This takes 50+ seconds. Once we give up trying to read the configuration ROM, bm_work() will wake up, assume that the root node is not cycle master capable, and do a bus reset. Hopefully, this will resolve the gap count inconsistency. This change makes bm_work() check for an inconsistent gap count before waiting for the root node's configuration ROM. If the gap count is inconsistent, bm_work() will immediately do a bus reset. This eliminates the 50+ second delay and rapidly brings the bus to a working state. I considered that if the gap count is inconsistent, a PHY configuration packet might not be successful, so it could be desirable to skip the PHY configuration packet before the bus reset in this case. However, IEEE 1394a-2000 and IEEE 1394-2008 say that the bus manager may transmit a PHY configuration packet before a bus reset when correcting a gap count error. Since the standard endorses this, I decided it's safe to retain the PHY configuration packet transmission. Normally, after a topology change, we will reset the bus a maximum of 5 times to change the root node and perform gap count optimization. However, if there is a gap count inconsistency, we must always generate a bus reset. Otherwise the gap count inconsistency will persist and communication will be unreliable. For that reason, if there is a gap count inconstency, we generate a bus reset even if we already reached the 5 reset limit.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels
-
BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export. - When sending patches upstream, the commit message must contain a clear case for why the patch is needed and beneficial to the community. Enabling out-of-tree drivers or functionality is not not a persuasive case.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
-
LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
Common Kernel patch requirements
- All patches must conform to the Linux kernel coding standards and pass
script/checkpatch.pl
- Patches shall not break gki_defconfig or allmodconfig builds for arm, arm64, x86, x86_64 architectures (see https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels)
- If the patch is not merged from an upstream branch, the subject must be tagged with the type of patch:
