[PATCH] spi: rockchip: limit transfers to (64K - 1) bytes

[PATCH] spi: rockchip: limit transfers to (64K - 1) bytes

[Brian Norris]

The Rockchip SPI controller's length register only supports 16-bits,
yielding a maximum length of 64KiB (the CTRLR1 register holds "length -
1"). Trying to transfer more than that (e.g., with a large SPI flash
read) will cause the driver to hang.

Now, it seems that while theoretically we should be able to program
CTRLR1 with 0xffff, and get a 64KiB transfer, but that also seems to
cause the core to choke, so stick with a maximum of 64K - 1 bytes --
i.e., 0xffff.

Brian, are you using dma or pio?

 From huibing's feedback for rk3399, you can see...

I forgot to mention, I'm using PIO. (The rk3399.dts in linux-next
doesn't even have the 'dma{s,-names}' properties listed for spi[0-5].)

I don't know what that file is, but presumably it's some kind of bare
SPI test interface you have in your private tree?

And this means a 64KiB + 1 transfer using DMA timed out?

And a 64KiB transfer using DMA completed successfully?

So maybe there's a driver bug in the PIO path that gives us an
off-by-one error. I poked around a bit and couldn't figure out anything,
so I sent this. Technically, this patch is still valid (even if not
optimal) for the DMA case too...

If you can't figure out what the difference is, and you really don't
want to unnecessarily limit the DMA case, then a last resort hack could
be to say:

static size_t rockchip_spi_max_transfer_size(struct spi_device *device)
{
	if (using dma) // this is obviously pseudocode
		return SZ_64K;
	else
		return SZ_64K - 1;
}

or something like that.

Huibing is using pio to test this case, and we still achieve it
successfully? That means there may be some minor diff for the pio
path between your chromium repo and my local branch.

Could you get spi-rockchip.c of rockchip local kernel 4.4 from Caesar
to see if you could transfer 64KB with the one we're using?

Are you saying Huibing has tested PIO with 64KB transfers, or is that a
question? If the former, it'd be great if he can publish the differences
between his kernel and upstream to produce this.

This is an upstream kernel mailing list. I'd expect we can agree to test
on an upstream kernel...

I just compared with some (possibly old) copy of your vendor-kernel
driver, and there are a few moderate differences. I didn't test it yet.
I'd think the onus is on you to publish your changes though, if you
think you've fixed things in your own private tree...but I'm willing to
test any changes you recommend.

Applied "spi: rockchip: limit transfers to (64K - 1) bytes" to the spi tree

[Mark Brown]

The patch

   spi: rockchip: limit transfers to (64K - 1) bytes

has been applied to the spi tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] spi: rockchip: limit transfers to (64K - 1) bytes

The Rockchip SPI controller's length register only supports 16-bits,
yielding a maximum length of 64KiB (the CTRLR1 register holds "length -
1"). Trying to transfer more than that (e.g., with a large SPI flash
read) will cause the driver to hang.

Now, it seems that while theoretically we should be able to program
CTRLR1 with 0xffff, and get a 64KiB transfer, but that also seems to
cause the core to choke, so stick with a maximum of 64K - 1 bytes --
i.e., 0xffff.

Thanks for applying! I'm OK with that, but just to be clear this might
qualify as a (very slight) hack, since I believe we should be able to
support a full 64KiB on both PIO and DMA. But it is better than the
current state of things on this driver, IMO. I suppose it's up to
Rockchip (or me) to figure out why some PIO transfers fail at exactly
64K if we want to support that. They have reproduced the failures I've
seen.
