After upgrading the kernel from stock Ubuntu 7.10 to
10.04, with no hardware changes, I started getting the dreaded DMA
TIMEOUT errors, followed by inability to encode until the machine was
rebooted.
I came across a post from Andy in March
(http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/users/40943#40943) where he
speculates that perhaps the corrective actions being taken after a DMA
ERROR are not sufficient to recover the situation. After some testing
I suspect that this is indeed the case, and that in fact the corrective
action may be what hangs the card's DMA engine, rather than the
original error.
Specifically these DMA ERROR IRQs seem to present with two different
values in the IVTV_REG_DMASTATUS register: 0x11 and 0x13. The current
corrective action is to clear that status register back to 0x01 or
0x03, and then issue the next DMA request. In the case of a 0x13 this
seems to result in a minor glitch in the encoded stream due to the
failed transfer that was not retried, but otherwise things continue OK.
In the case of a 0x11 the card's DMA write engine is never heard from
again, and a DMA TIMEOUT follows shortly after. 0x11 is the killer.
I suspect that the two cases need to be handled differently. The
difference is in bit 1 (0x02), which is set when the error is about to
be successfully recovered, and clear when things are about to go bad.
Bit 1 of DMASTATUS is described differently in different places either
as a positive "write finished", or an inverted "write busy". If we
take the first definition, then when an error arises with state 0x11,
it means that the write did not complete. It makes sense to start a
new transfer, as in the current code. But if we take the second
definition, then 0x11 means "an error but the write engine is still
busy". Trying to feed it a new transfer in this situation might not be
a good idea.
As an experiment, I added code to ignore the DMA ERROR IRQ if DMASTATUS
is 0x11. I.e., don't start a new transfer, don't clear our flags, etc.
The hope was that the card would complete the transfer and issue a ENC
DMA COMPLETE, either successfully or with an error condition there.
However the card still hung.
The only remaining corrective action being taken with a 0x11 status was
then the write back to the status register to clear the error, i.e.
DMASTATUS = DMASTATUS & ~3. This would have the effect of clearing the
error bit 4, while leaving the lower bits indicating DMA write busy.
Strangely enough, removing this write to the status register solved the
problem! If the DMA ERROR IRQ with DMASTATUS=0x11 is completely
ignored, with no corrective action at all, then the card will complete
the transfer and issue a new IRQ. If the status register is written to
when it has the value 0x11, then the DMA engine hangs. Perhaps it's
illegal to write to
DMASTATUS while the read or write busy bit is set? At any rate, it
appears that the current corrective action is indeed making things
worse rather than better.
I put together a patch that modifies ivtv_irq_dma_err to do the
following:
- Don't write back to IVTV_REG_DMASTATUS.
- If write-busy is asserted, leave the card alone. Just extend the
timeout slightly.
- If write-busy is de-asserted, retry the current transfer.
This has completely fixed my DMA TIMEOUT woes. DMA ERR events still
occur, but now they seem to be correctly handled. 0x11 events no
longer hang the card, and 0x13 events no longer result in a glitch in
the stream, as the failed transfer is retried. I'm happy.
I've inlined the patch below in case it is of interest. As described
above, I have a theory about why it works (based on a different
interpretation of bit 1 of DMASTATUS), but I can't guarantee that my
theory is correct. There may be another explanation, or it may be a
fluke. Maybe ignoring that IRQ entirely would be equally effective?
Maybe the status register read/writeback sequence is race condition if
the card changes it in the mean time? Also as I am using a PVR-150
only, I have not been able to test it on other cards, which may be
especially relevant for 350s that support concurrent decoding.
Hopefully the patch does not break the DMA READ path.

[awalls@md.metrocast.net: Modified patch to add a verbose comment, make minor
brace reformats, and clear the error flags in the IVTV_REG_DMASTATUS iff both
read and write DMA were not in progress. Mike's conjecture about a race
condition with the writeback is correct; it can confuse the DMA engine.]

Upcoming workqueue updates will no longer guarantee fixed workqueue to
worker kthread association, so giving RT priority to the irq worker
won't work. Use kthread_worker which guarantees specific kthread
association instead. This also makes setting the priority cleaner.

ivtv_api_get_data() was performing more PCI MMIO than needed, resulting
often in it accounting for more than half the total time spent in
ivtv_irq_handler(). Now it only reads at most 7 of the 16 mailbox data words
over the PCI bus, and in some instances only 2 or 3 data words as needed.

There are several DMA related interrupts which wake up the dma_waitq. The udma
routines use this queue while they wait for their transfer to complete. When
woken, the udma routine will check the IVTV_F_I_UDMA_PENDING & IVTV_F_I_UDMA
flags to see if the transfer is still queued or has finished. However, a small
window exists between the IVTV_F_I_UDMA_PENDING flag being cleared and the
IVTV_F_I_UDMA flag being set. Given that the completion of an unrelated DMA
transfer may wake up the udma routine, it's possible for this check to fail
and the udma routine will start unmapping pages when the transfer has only
just started. The result of this is unpredictable.
This fix simply delays the clearing of the IVTV_F_I_UDMA_PENDING flag until
after IVTV_F_I_UDMA has been set.

IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME framework
Previously, all yuv data written to /dev/video48 had only basic support with
no double buffering to avoid display tearing.
With this patch, yuv frames written to video48 are now handled by the existing
IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME framework. As such, the frames are hardware buffered to
avoid tearing, and honour scaling mode & field order options. Unlike the
proprietary IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME ioctl, all parameters are controlled by the
V4L2 API.
Due to mpeg & yuv output restrictions being different, their V4L2 output
controls have been separated. To control the yuv output, the V4L2 calls must
be done via video48.
If the ivtvfb module is loaded, there will be one side effect to this merge.
The yuv output window will be constrained to the visible framebuffer area. In
the event that a virtual framebuffer size is being used, the limit to the
output size will be the virtual dimensions, but only the portion that falls
within the currently visible area of the framebuffer will be shown.
Like the IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME ioctl, the supplied frames must be padded to 720
pixels wide. However the height must only be padded up the nearest multiple
of 32. This would mean an image of 102 lines must be padded to 128. As long
as the true source image size is given, the padding will not be visible in
the final output.

Interlace mode selection code moved into the frame setup phase, so it's now
run before the frame is loaded into a hardware buffer. Given that it can
affect how a new frame is displayed, it was a bit stupid running it after the
frame was already visible.
A few stray interlace related variables which were linked to individual frames
have now been moved into the yuv_frame_info struct. This means that all
variables linked to a specific frame are in the same place & not scattered.
Minor code reformatting in areas touched by the above changes.

Currently the yuv output stream buffer is divided into blocks whose size
depend on the broadcast standard selected during the driver init phase.
However, the standard can be changed after the init phase. This effectively
breaks the yuv output stream handler, since it relies on the different yuv
planes being block aligned.
This patch changes the setup, so that the block size is always the same. The
decoder dma function has been modified to cope with the fact that the second
yuv plane may no longer be block aligned. The start of the yuv frame must
still be at the beginning of a block, so the stream write function has also
been modified to ensure this is always true.
Also, the stream write function will now initiate a yuv dma transfer as soon
as a full frame is ready. It will not wait until the current write request
has completed, or the stream buffer becomes full.

Also fixed a few cases of cut&paste errors where 'buf' would be set to the
first entry in the list prior to be used as the loop iterator. In one case
the value of buf was used before it was changed, but the rest were
unnecessary.
There was one list_for_each+list_entry loop that wasn't changed, since it
depending on the loop iterator being left as NULL if the list was empty.

Besides some VBI cleanups this patch also fixes a subtle problem with the
VBI re-insertion stream where the PIO work handler wasn't called quickly
enough, resulting in occasional corrupt data.
Furthermore the CC output didn't disable CC correctly and at the right time,
causing duplicates to be sent.
An saa7127 fix for VPS output was also added: the wrong data was sent.

It turns out that the cx23415/6 DMA engine cannot do scatter/gather DMA
reliably. Every so often depending on the phase of the moon and your
hardware configuration the cx2341x DMA engine simply chokes on it and
you have to reboot to get it working again.
This change replaced the scatter/gather DMA by single transfers at a time,
where the driver is now responsible for DMA-ing each buffer.
UDMA is still done using scatter/gather DMA, that will be fixed soon.
Many thanks to Mark Bryars <mark.bryars@etvinteractive.com> for discovering
the link between scatter/gather and the DMA timeouts.

When there are no more free buffers, then buffers are stolen from the
predma queue. Buffers should be stolen from the head of that queue (which
is where the most recently added buffers are) and all buffers belonging
to a frame should be stolen. Otherwise 'half-frames' would remain in the
queue, which leads to ugly playback and complete sync failure for YUV
buffers.

In the current driver, the field order is global. As soon as it's changed it
takes immediate effect. This is a problem when the video changes order mid
stream. Although it mostly works okay, the video may judder / flicker.
This patch attaches the field order to the frame, so that any buffered frames
will not be displayed until the correct field. In the event that the field
order is changed mid stream, the driver will ensure that the previous frame
is displayed for a minimum of 3 fields. These are the two original fields the
frame should have occupied, plus the one extra since the new frame still has
to wait for the correct field.

The VBI DMA is handled in a special way and is marked with a bit.
However, that bit was set at the wrong time and could be cleared
by mistake if a PCM (or other) DMA request would arrive before the
VBI DMA was completed. So on completion of the VBI DMA the driver
no longer knew that that DMA transfer was for VBI data. And this
in turn caused havoc with the card's DMA engine.

workhandler
Sliced VBI transfers use PIO instead of DMA. This was done inside the
interrupt handler, but since PIO accesses are very slow this meant that
a lot of time was spent inside the interrupt handler. All PIO copies are
now moved to a workqueue. This should fix various issues with missing time
ticks and remote key hits.
