ssb: Fix usage of struct device used for DMAing

2008-04-15T19:04:35+00:00

This fixes DMA on architectures where DMA is nontrivial, like PPC64.
We must use the host-device's (PCI) struct device for any DMA
operation instead of the SSB device. For this we add a new
struct device pointer to the SSB device structure that will always
point to the right device for DMAing.

Without this patch b43 and b44 drivers won't work on complex-DMA
architectures, that for example need dev->archdata for DMA operations.

b43: Add DMA mapping failure messages

2008-04-01T19:44:08+00:00

This adds messages for some DMA mapping failures.
These are useful for debugging DMA address problems, as they appear
on x86_64 machines with IOMMU enabled.

b43: Remove irqs_disabled() sanity checks

2008-03-24T23:25:09+00:00

Remove all irqs_disabled() sanity checks, as they are not safe on
a RT-enabled kernel and will trigger bogus warnings.

b43: Fix DMA mapping leakage

2008-03-24T23:25:09+00:00

This fixes a DMA mapping leakage in the case where we reject a DMA
buffer because of its address.

b43: phy.c fix typo in register write

2008-03-13T19:57:25+00:00

Commit 61bca6eb85c863603d6054530e2f65c3b9aba85b b43: rewrite A PHY initialization
has a typo, the result of the register read should be masked, not the
register offset.

Use a separate config option for the b43 pci to ssb bridge.

2008-02-28T14:13:10+00:00

The bridge code was unnecessary enabled by the b44
driver, but it prevents the bcm43xx driver from
being loaded, as the bridge claims the same pci ids.

Now we enable the birdge only if the b43{legacy}
drivers are selected.

b43: Fix firmware load message level

The firmware version information should always get printed. Not only
on a debug build.

b43: Add driver load messages

2008-02-15T18:44:18+00:00

This adds printk messages with basic information about the driver being loaded.
This information includes a summary of the compiled-in features, which
simplifies bug-reporting and debugging a lot.
Also a firmware ID is printed. This is a unique identifier blob for a specific
version of the firmware. This ID is attached to a specific version of the firmware
blob in b43-fwcutter (see fwcutter git).
This helps users to select the right firmware for their device.
This also makes it possible to use automated scripts to fetch and extract the right
firmware for the driver. (the script will grep the .ko for the "Firmware-ID: xxx" string.
While the driver might still support other versions of the firmware for backward
compatibility, this will always print out the officially supported version, which
people _should_ use.
