Posted: [GIT PULL] firewire updates for v6.11
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/20240720084730.GA59546@workstation.local/T/#u

There are many line changes for FireWire subsystem, while there is no
functional change for practical use. The most of changes are for code
refactoring, some KUnit tests to added helper functions, and new
tracepoints events for both the core functions and 1394 OHCI driver.

The tracepoints events now cover the verbose logging enabled by debug
parameter of firewire-ohci kernel module. The parameter would be removed
in any future timing, thus it is now deprecated.

Hm. I'm investigating to replace the local implementation to maintain blocks in the allocated memory region mapped for DMA purpose with common dma_pool. However, it does not allows to pick up an arbitrary count of blocks at once for continuous memory region. It just connect returned block to the tail of local list, and has no mechanism to keep maintained blocks as continuous.
Typically, this kind of framework requires mechanism to suppress fragmentation, but it has nothing. I prefer its simplicity, but a bit inconvenient for my purpose...

Being straightforward is not necessarily more adequate than being simple.

Figuring out how to represent this device's mixer controls in ALSA is pain peko...

Ah, indeed. PCI device driver has no need to know virtual address mapped to their DMA bus address, unless they have any interface to applications.

@monsieuricon It's time to redirect http://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/ to http://ieee1394.docs.kernel.org/, Would I request it to you?

In a design of the core function, the device underlying the card is not necessarily 1394 OHCI, thus the identifier should not be selected from PCIe-related data. Hm.

Several websites write that snapdragon X devices are the first laptop with Arm cpu.

Acorn A4 was the first laptop with ARM cpu.

In June 1992. 32 years ago.

Alternatively, `card_index` or device major/minor numbers? An address in PCI bus?

Mmm. `__assign_str()` for` dev_name()` with `struct device *`. I don't like to put strings into data structure for tracepoints events...

OHCI_TCODE_PHY_PACKET = TCODE_LINK_INTERNAL = OHCI1394_phy_tcode = 0xe in 1394 OHCI.

Hm. A commit 29a43dc130ce (“PCI: Mark LSI FW643 to avoid bus reset”) should be reverted, since it would include some misunderstandings.

Libhinoko version 0.9.1 release

The main objective of this micro release is to incorporate support for
meson build subproject functionality. For applications to utilize meson
build wrap dependency system, a new dependency object of 'hinoko' is newly
available. For detailed information, please refer to README.tst.
Inconveniently, hinoko project is not registered to public WrapDB yet,
thus users need to write wrap file manually for the time being.

For the release, compressed package archive is available with both
signatures by kernel.org system admin and author under this URL:

https://kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/ieee1394/libhinoko-0.9.1.tar.xz

The package archive is generated by 0.9.1 signed tag in upstream
repository:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/ieee1394/libhinoko.git/tag/?h=v0.9.1
