Subject: [PATCH v7] Bluetooth: btwilink driver

From: Pavan Savoy <[email protected]>

Marcel, Gustavo,

comments attended to from v5 and v6,

1. Inside ti_st_open, I previously only checked for EINPROGRESS & EPERM,
Now I handle for EINPROGRESS - which is not really an error and
return during all other error cases.

2. _write is still a function pointer and not an exported function, I
need to change the underlying driver's code for this.
However, previous lkml comments on the underlying driver's code
suggested it to be kept as a function pointer and not EXPORT.
Gustavo, Marcel - Please comment on this.
Is this absolutely required? If so why?

3. test_and_set_bit of HCI_RUNNING is done at beginning of
ti_st_open, and did not see issues during firmware download.
However ideally I would still like to set HCI_RUNNING once the firmware
download is done, because I don't want to allow a _send_frame during
firmware download - Marcel, Gustavo - Please comment.

4. test_and_clear of HCI_RUNNING now done @ beginning of close.

5. EAGAIN on failure of st_write is to suggest to try and write again.
I have never this happen - However only if UART goes bad this case may
occur.

6. ti_st_tx_complete is very similar to hci_ldisc's tx_complete - in
fact the code is pretty much borrowed from there.
Marcel, Gustavo - Please suggest where should it be done? If not here.

7. comments cleaned-up + hst memory leak fixed when hci_alloc_dev fails.

8. platform_driver registration inside module_init now is similar to
other drivers.

9. Dan Carpenter's comments on leaking hst memory on failed
hci_register_dev and empty space after quotes in debug statements
fixed.

Thanks for the comments...
Sorry, for previously not being very clear on which comments were
handled and which were not.

-- patch description --

This is the bluetooth protocol driver for the TI WiLink7 chipsets.
Texas Instrument's WiLink chipsets combine wireless technologies
like BT, FM, GPS and WLAN onto a single chip.

This Bluetooth driver works on top of the TI_ST shared transport
line discipline driver which also allows other drivers like
FM V4L2 and GPS character driver to make use of the same UART interface.

Kconfig and Makefile modifications to enable the Bluetooth
driver for Texas Instrument's WiLink 7 chipset.

So as part of reviewing this I took a look at your underlying driver and
I didn't like what I saw there, you are handling Bluetooth stuff inside
the core driver and that is just wrong. You have a Bluetooth driver here
then you have to leave the Bluetooth data handling to the Bluetooth
driver and do not do that in the core.

So I'm going to clear NACK this. Your TI ST driver architecture is
a mess, Ideally you should not have any #include <net/bluetoooth/...>
there. Implement a core driver that only gets the Shared Transport
data and pass it to the right driver without look into the data and
process it. Process the data is not the role of the core driver.

Please fix this and come back when you have a proper solution for your
driver.

Thanks for reviewing this and the underlying driver.
yes, we do have Bluetooth/FM/GPS handling inside the TI ST driver, on
addition of further technologies
we do plan to have them inside the ST driver too.

The understanding of BT or FM or GPS is required for the ST driver
because, the data coming from the chip
can either be of these technologies, further-more the data might not
come in a set.
As in, an a2dp/ftp ACL frame might come in 2 frames instead of 1, and
in other cases,
there might be a HCI-EVENT + FM CH8 data in a single frame received by the UART.

So as I see it the tty_receive which translates to st_int_recv() in
TI-ST is the area of concern for
you ...
So any suggestions as to how we can go about just abstracting the BT,
FM and GPS data part to their individual drivers?

Gustavo,

>>> comments attended to from v5 and v6,

There was 1 solution which was proposed for this,
See in tty_receive/st_int_recv() - we pretty much want only the
packet_id, header length and
the offset of the payload in the header structure.
this is to pack together the data coming in single frame or sets of
multiple frames...

so if bt driver can do something like,
st_register(acl_proto) -> where ACL_PKT=0x2, acl_hdr.len and
acl_hdr.payload_offset is sent to ST
st_register(sco_proto) -> where SCO_PKT=0x3, sco_hdr.len and
sco_hdr.payload_offset is sent to ST
st_register(evt_proto) -> where EVT_PKT=0x2, sco_hdr.len and
evt_hdr.payload_offset is sent to ST

and all 3 map to same st_recv() functions from ST, then
the ST driver as you suggested can be generic enough not to include
any net/bluetooth/ stuff,
and also can be ignorant about any bluetooth, fm or gps stuff in general...

So please suggest if this seems a valid solution, we had previously
declined it because it made bt_driver
sort of register to ST 3 times instead of 1 time like now....

Thanks,
Pavan

Can't you differentiate Bluetooth data in a generic way, withou looking if it
is ACL, SCO or HCI EVENT? That done, you can just accumulate in a buffer all
the Bluetooth data you received in that stream then send it to Bluetooth
driver after finish that stream processing.

I'm afraid he can't do this because he needs to route events to the
appropriate entity (BT/FM/GPS). I'm not sure how it can be done
without analyzing the incoming packet.

Think of TI-ST driver as a extension to the HCI-H4 driver or HCI-LL
with FM and GPS being the additional protocols, and more protocols
coming in future...
So some driver has to have a knowledge of the protocols which are on chip.
the basic arch can be found @ http://omappedia.org/wiki/Wilink_ST

As Vitaly rightly pointed out, the TI-ST driver needs to peek into all
the protocol's data be it BT, FM or GPS to assemble fragmented data
(say ACL data coming out of TTY in 2 fragments) or fragment multiple
protocol data (say HCI-Event + FM Channel 8 event data)....
Note: we include even the FM and GPS headers to understand protocol
frames, but they lack a standard unlike Bluetooth...

Since there lacks a generic way to differentiate BT, FM or GPS data at
TI-ST driver layer, please suggest what can be done ...

Gustavo, Marcel,

Any suggestion to this?
Is including net/bluetooth headers a problem?
and is this a big blocking factor to try and push it to mainline?

I know it would be a dumb question, but do you want me to redeclare
the ACL, SCO and Event headers structures?
All I need is the off-set of the structure where the payload length resides....

Please suggest ...

regards,
Pavan
