2008-11-02cx18: Reduce number of mmio read retriesAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Reduce number of mmio read retries to improve performance. Experiments have shown 2 things: read retries never improve the result of a suspect mmio read from the CX23418 (the result stays all 0xff's), and that most of the suspected read failures are actually proper reads of values that should be all 0xff's. This change reduces the number of read retries and keeps the count separate from write retries. Priority: normal Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-10-31cx18: Fix write retries for registers that always change - part 2.Andy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Fix write retries for registers that always change - part 2. Some registers, especially interrupt related ones, will never read back the value just written. Modified interrupt register readback checks to make sure the intended effect was achieved. Priority: high Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-10-18cx18: Add __iomem address space qualifier to cx18_log_*_retries() argumentAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Add __iomem address space qualifier to cx18_log_*_retries() addr argument to clean up sparse build warnings. Priority: normal Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-09-28cx18: Add default behavior of checking and retrying PCI MMIO accessesAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Add default behavior of checking and retrying PCI MMIO accesses. The concept of checking and retrying PCI MMIO accesses for better reliability in older motherboards was suggested by Steve Toth <stoth@linuxtv.org>. This change implements MMIO retries and the retry_mmio module parameter that is enabled by default. Limited experiments have shown this is more reliable than the mmio_ndelay parameter. mmio_ndelay has insignificant effect with retries enabled.

2008-08-31cx18: Throttle mmio to/from the CX23418 so boards work in older systemsAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Throttle mmio to/from the CX23418 so boards work in older systems. The CX23418 couldn't reliably handle mmio at the rate at which the cx18 driver was attempting to access the chip. The PCI bridge arrangements and settings on modern motherboards still allowed the CX23418 to work OK, but it didn't work well on many older motherboards: mysterious I2C errors, firmware loading errors, etc. This patch adds a throttle to *all* mmio access to the CX23418. It defaults to a delay of 31 ns, but is adjustable by the mmio_ndelay module parm. My HVR-1600 and Raptor PAL/SECAM card now function for analog capture on a motherboard with an Intel 82810E Northbridge and 82801AA Southbridge.

From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Create cx18_ specific wrappers for all pci mmio accessesors. This is a first step in instrumenting all CX23418 PCI bus IO, to debug problems with accessing the CX23418's PCI memory mapped IO. Priority: normal Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
