Only other useful thing would be repeated getsom/putscom operations (eg. read the same scom address n times) as they would help with ADU access which can do autoincrement or scanscom (although we should just use the scan engine directly for that so not a big issue). > + for (retries = 0; retries < SCOM_MAX_RETRIES; retries++) { > + rc = raw_get_scom(scom, value, addr, &status); > + if (rc) { > + /* Try resetting the bridge if FSI fails */ > + if (rc != -ENODEV && retries == 0) { > + fsi_device_write(scom->fsi_dev, SCOM_FSI2PIB_RESET_REG, > + &dummy, sizeof(uint32_t)); > + rc = -EBUSY; > + } else > + return rc; > + } else > + rc = handle_fsi2pib_status(scom, status); > + if (rc && rc != -EBUSY) > + break; > + if (rc == 0) { > + rc = handle_pib_status(scom, > + (status & SCOM_STATUS_PIB_RESP_MASK) > + >> SCOM_STATUS_PIB_RESP_SHIFT); > + if (rc && rc != -EBUSY) > + break; > + } > + if (rc == 0) > + break; > + msleep(1); > + } The rc handling above took me a little while to grok but I didn't come up with a cleaner alternative and I think it's correct. - Alistair > > > > That said, cronus does a bunch of other stupid things that I'm still > > trying to figure out how to fix. > > > > We might need to create a /dev/cfam rather than going through that > > magic sysfs "raw" file, and I wouldn't mind using a single IDA so that > > all the devices below a given FSI slace (cfam itself, sbefifo, occ, > > ...) have the same "number". > > Also while we're at reworking how all this is exposed to our broken > userspace, I wouldn't mind putting all these dev entries under a > directory, if I can figure out how to do that (I haven't really looked > yet). > > /dev/fsi/{cfamN,sbefifoN,occN, ...} and possibly similar by-id and by- > path that other subsystems use, so we have something more deterministic > than the "random number" crap we do now. > > We can always keep hacks to do symlinks in our kernel tree until we > have converted all our userspace users. > > We currently control the only userspace users of this, so now is a good > time to cleanup how we expose things.
