2014-09-23GenWQE: Support blocking when DDCB queue is busyFrank Haverkamp
When the GenWQE hardware queue was busy, the driver returned simply -EBUSY. This caused polling by applications which increased the load on the already busy system. This change implements the possiblity to sleep on a waitqueue instead when the DDCB queue is busy. The requestor is woken up when there is free space on the queue again. The old way to get -EBUSY is still available if the device is openend with O_NONBLOCKING. The default is now blocking behavior.

2014-09-23GenWQE: Check pci_get_totalvfs return codeFrank Haverkamp
Currently the driver is using the pci_get_totalvfs() return code directly in a loop. To avoid problems with potentially negative returns in case of errors, we are adding some more sanity checking code.

2014-07-09GenWQE: Add support for EEH error recoveryKleber Sacilotto de Souza
This patch implements the callbacks and functions necessary to have EEH recovery support. It adds a config option to enable or disable explicit calls to trigger platform specific mechanisms on error recovery paths. This option is enabled by default only on PPC64 systems and can be overritten via debugfs. If this option is enabled, on the error recovery path the driver will call pci_channel_offline() to check for error condition and issue non-raw MMIO reads to trigger early EEH detection in case of hardware failures. This is necessary since the driver MMIO helper funtions use raw accessors.

2014-04-16GenWQE: Fix multithreading problemsFrank Haverkamp
When being used in a multithreaded application there were problems with memory pages/cachelines accessed by multiple threads/cpus at the same time, while doing DMA transfers to/from those. To avoid such situations this fix is creating a copy of the first and the last page if it is not fully used. The data is copied from user-space into those pages and results are copied back when the DDCB-request is successfully finished.
