[PATCH v2 00/42] esp: consolidate PDMA transfer buffers and other fixes

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

This patch series comes from an experimental branch that I've been working on
to try and boot a MacOS toolbox ROM under the QEMU q800 machine. The effort is
far from complete, but it seems worth submitting these patches separately since
they are limited to the ESP device and form a substantial part of the work to
date.

As part of Laurent's recent q800 work so-called PDMA (pseudo-DMA) support was
added to the ESP device. This is whereby the DREQ (DMA request) line is used
to signal to the host CPU that it can transfer data to/from the device over
the SCSI bus.

The existing PDMA tracks 4 separate transfer data sources as indicated by the
ESP pdma_origin variable: PDMA, TI, CMD and ASYNC with an independent variable
pdma_len to store the transfer length. This works well with Linux which uses a
single PDMA request to transfer a number of sectors in a single request.

Unfortunately the MacOS toolbox ROM has other ideas here: it sends data to the
ESP as a mixture of FIFO and PDMA transfers and then uses a mixture of the FIFO
and DMA counters to confirm that the correct number of bytes have been
transferred. For this to work correctly the PDMA buffers and separate pdma_len
transfer counter must be consolidated into the FIFO to allow mixing of both
types of transfer within a single request.

The patchset is split into several sections:

- Patches 1-7 are minor patches which make esp.c checkpatch friendly, QOMify 
ESPState,
  and also fix up some trace events ready for later patches in the series

- Patches 8-13 unify the DMA transfer count. In particular there are 2 synthetic
  variables dma_counter and dma_left within ESPState which do not need to 
exist. 
  DMA transfer lengths are programmed into the TC (transfer count) register 
which is 
  decremented for each byte transferred, generating an interrupt when it 
reaches zero.
  These patches add helper functions to read the TC and STC registers directly 
and
  remove these synthetic variables so that the DMA transfer length is now 
tracked in
  a single place.

- Now that the TC register represents the authoritative DMA transfer length, 
patches
  14-25 work to eliminate the separate PDMA variables pdma_start, pdma_cur, 
pdma_len
  and separate PDMA buffers PDMA and CMD. The PDMA position variables can be 
replaced
  by the existing ESP cmdlen and ti_wptr/ti_rptr, whilst the FIFO (TI) buffer 
is used
  for incoming data with commands being accumulated in cmdbuf as per standard 
DMA
  requests.

- Patches 26 and 27 fix the detection of missing SCSI targets by the MacOS 
toolbox ROM
  on startup at which point it will attempt to start reading information from a 
CDROM
  attached to the q800 machine.

- Patch 28 is the main rework of the PDMA buffer transfers: instead of tracking 
the
  SCSI transfers using a separate ASYNC pdma_origin, the contents of the 
ESPState
  async_buf are copied to the FIFO buffer in 16-byte chunks with the transfer 
status
  and IRQs being set accordingly.

- Patch 29 removes the last separate PDMA variable pdma_origin, including the 
separate
  PDMA migration subsection which is no longer required (see note below about 
migration
  compatibility).
  
- Patch 30 enables 4 byte PDMA reads/writes over the SCSI bus which are used by 
MacOS
  when reading the next stage bootloader from CDROM (this is an increase from
  2 bytes currently implemented and used by Linux).

- Patches 31-34 fix an issue whereby the MacOS toolbox ROM tries to read 
incoming data
  from the target within a few instructions of receiving the command complete 
interrupt.
  Since IO is asynchronous in QEMU, it is necessary to delay the command 
complete
  interrupt for incoming data to avoid underflow.

- Patches 35-37 fix a problem with the SATN and stop command not changing the 
SCSI bus
  to message out phase. This actually first manifested itself after the Fifo8 
conversion
  with guests that mix DMA/non-DMA commands but it is moved forward to aid 
bisection.

- Patches 38-39 convert ti_buf and cmdbuf from simple arrays to QEMU's Fifo8 
type which
  helped locate a handful of bugs around handling the buffer pointers which are
  incorpated within earlier patches within the series.
  
- Finally patches 40-42 add support for the FIFO count registers, non-DMA 
transfers and
  unaligned accesses which are required for the MacOS toolbox ROM to successful 
read
  files from disk.

  
Testing
=======

I've tested this on my SPARC32 OpenBIOS images which include Linux, OpenBSD, 
NetBSD,
and Solaris and all of these continue to boot as before.

Similarly the q800 m68k Linux test image still boots as before with these 
patches
applied. It is possible with lots of hacks to load Laurent's EMILE bootloader 
using
a MacOS toolbox ROM - the hope is to try and start upstreaming more of these 
changes
as time allows.

Many thanks to Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> who provided me a test image 
for
the deferred interrupt test case, and also confirmed the updated version still
worked fine in his tests.


Migration
=========

The patchset ensures that ESP devices without PDMA (i.e. everything except the 
q800
machine) will migrate successfully. This is fairly simple: the only change 
required
here is to copy the old synthetic dma_left value over into the TC.

Unfortunately migrating the PDMA subsection is a lot harder due to the change 
in the
way that the DMA TC and changes to the point at which transfer counters are 
updated.
For this reason the patchset will not migrate from older q800 snapshots: I don't
believe this to be a problem since some devices are still missing 
VMStateDescription
plus there are likely to be more breaking changes as the q800 machine matures.
