      greybus: protect cookie with a mutex · 43cdae5c
      Alex Elder authored
      When a Greybus message is sent, the host driver supplies a cookie
      for Greybus to use to identify the sent message in the event it
      needs to be canceled.  The cookie will be non-null while the message
      is in flight, and a null pointer otherwise.
      
      There are two problems with this, which arise out of the fact that a
      message can be canceled at any time--even concurrent with it getting
      sent (such as when Greybus is getting shut down).
      
      First, the host driver's buffer_send method can return an error
      value, which is non-null but not a valid cookie.  So we need to
      ensure such a bogus cookie is never used to cancel a message.
      
      Second, we can't resolve that problem by assigning message->cookie
      only after we've determined it's not an error.  The instant
      buffer_send() returns, the message may well be in flight and *should*
      be canceled at shutdown, so we need the cookie value to reflect
      that.
      
      In order to avoid these problems, protect access to a message's
      cookie value with a mutex.  A spin lock can't be used because the
      window that needs protecting covers code that can block.  We
      reset the cookie value to NULL as soon as the host driver has
      notified us it has been sent (or failed to).

      greybus: ignore a null cookie when canceling buffer · f34541d7
      Alex Elder authored
      It's possible for an in-flight buffer to be recorded as sent *after*
      a thread has begin the process of canceling it.  In that case the
      Greybus message cookie will be set to NULL, and that value can end
      up getting passed to buffer_cancel().  Change buffer_cancel() so
      it properly handles (ignores) a null cookie pointer.

      greybus: update operation result atomically · 894cbc31
      Alex Elder authored
      An operation result can be set both in and out of interrupt context.
      For example, a response message could be arriving at the same time a
      timeout of the operation is getting processed.  We therefore need to
      ensure the result is accessed atomically.
      
      Protect updates to the errno field using the operations spinlock.

      greybus: enforce receive buffer size · aa3a4d12
      Alex Elder authored
      When an operation is created its receive buffer size is specified.
      In all current cases, the size supplied for the receive buffer is
      exactly the size that should be returned.  In other words, if
      any fewer than that many bytes arrived in a response, it would be
      an error.
      
      So tighten the check on the number of bytes arriving for a response
      message, ensuring that the number of bytes received is *exactly the
      same* as the number of bytes available (rather than just less than).
      We'll expand our interpretation of of -EMSGSIZE to mean "wrong
      message size" rather than just "message too long."
      
      If we someday encounter an actual case where we want to be able to
      successfully receive something less than the full receive buffer we
      can adjust the code to handle that (and give it a way to tell the
      receiver how many bytes are present).

      greybus: fix some error codes · 1a365154
      Alex Elder authored
      Change the message result values used in two cases.
      
      First, use -EMSGSIZE rather than -E2BIG to represent a message
      that is larger than the buffer intended to hold it.  That is
      the proper code for this situation.
      
      Second, use -ECANCELED rather than -EINTR for an operation that
      has been canceled.  The definition of that error is literally
      "Operation Canceled" so it seems like the right thing to do.

      greybus: use special operation result valus · 3deb37d4
      Alex Elder authored
      This is more or less re-implementing this commit:
          96f95d4 greybus: update gbuf status for completion handlers
      But this time we're doing this for an operation, not the gbuf.
      
      Define an initial operation result value (-EBADR) to signify that no
      valid result has been set.  Nobody should ever set that value after
      the operation is initially created.  Since only the operation core
      code sets the result, an attempt to set -EBADR would be a bug.
      
      Define another known operation result value (-EINPROGRESS) for an
      outgoing operation whose request has been sent but whose response
      has not yet been successfully received.  This should the first
      (non-initial) result value set, and it should happen exactly once.
      Any other attempt to set this value once set would be a bug.
      
      Finally, once the request message is in flight, the result value
      will be set exactly once more, to indicate the final result of
      the operation.

      greybus: first operation error prevails · abe9a300
      Alex Elder authored
      If an operation already has an error result recorded, don't
      overwrite it with a new error code.
      
      In order to ensure a request completes exactly once, return a
      Boolean indicating whether setting the result was successful.  If
      two threads are racing to complete an operation (for example if a
      slow-but-normal response message arrives at the same time timeout
      processing commences) only the one that sets the final result
      will finish its activity.

      greybus: encapsulate operation result access · ba986b5a
      Alex Elder authored
      Hide the setting and getting of the operation result (stored in
      operation->errno) behind a pair of accessor functions.  Only the
      operation core should be setting the result, but operations that
      complete asynchronously will need access to the result so expose
      the function that provides that.

      greybus: uart-gb: clean up send_line_coding · 9f240f20
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      We always pass the same option to send_line_coding() for the line_coding
      structure, which is already in the struct gb_tty variable, so just
      remove the second parameter as it's not needed.
      
      This logic came from the cdc-acm.c driver, where it's also not needed
      anymore, I'll go fix up that later on when I get a chance.

      greybus: rework synchronous operation completion · 10c69399
      Alex Elder authored
      The only time we need a completion signaled on a request is when the
      request provided no callback function.  In that case, we wait for
      a completion on behalf of the caller.
      
      If an interrupt occurs, we attempt to cancel the message that's
      been sent, but we don't actually complete the operation as required.
      
      Instead of simply waiting for the completion, put in place a
      special callback function for the synchronous operation.  The
      only job the callback has is to signal completion, allowing the
      waiter to know it's done.
      
      This means gb_operation_complete() will always have a non-null
      callback pointer, so it becomes a simple wrapper, and we can get rid
      of it and invoke the callback directly, in gb_operation_work().
      
      Be defensive by checking for a null callback pointer, and reset
      it to NULL once it's been called.

      greybus: kill gb_operation_wait() · 2cf72a23
      Alex Elder authored
      When a caller wants an operation to complete synchronously, there is
      generally no need for any other threads to wait for the operation's
      completion.  So here's no need for gb_operation_wait() to be
      available for synchronous requests.  At the moment, all operations
      are done synchronously.
      
      Knowing that, get rid of the public gb_operation_wait() function,
      and open-code it in gb_operation_request_send().  The public wait
      function can be re-implemented when it's really needed.
      
      With that function gone, the only waiter for the completion of an
      operation is the submitter itself, and only then if it's
      synchronous.  So rather than complete_all(), we can simply use
      complete() to signal the submitter.
