Stefan Richter 9f6d3c4b76 tools/firewire: add userspace front-end of nosy
This adds nosy-dump, the userspace part of nosy, the IEEE 1394 traffic
sniffer for Texas Instruments PCILynx/ PCILynx2 based cards.  Author is
Kristian Høgsberg.

The files added here are taken from
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~krh/nosy commit ee29be97 (2009-11-10)
with the following changes by Stefan Richter:
  - Parts pertaining to the kernel module removed from Makefile.
  - dist target removed from the Makefile.
  - Mentioned nosy-dump in the Kconfig help to nosy's kernel component.
  - Add copyright notice to nosy-dump.c.  This is a duplicate of the
    respective notice in the kernel component nosy.c except for a time
    span of 2002 - 2006, according to Kristian's git log.

Stefan Richter 286468210d firewire: new driver: nosy - IEEE 1394 traffic sniffer
This adds the traffic sniffer driver for Texas Instruments PCILynx/
PCILynx2 based cards.  The use cases for nosy are analysis of
nonstandard protocols and as an aid in development of drivers,
applications, or firmwares.

Author of the driver is Kristian Høgsberg.  Known contributers are
Jody McIntyre and Jonathan Woithe.

Nosy programs PCILynx chips to operate in promiscuous mode, which is a
feature that is not found in OHCI-1394 controllers.  Hence, only special
hardware as mentioned in the Kconfig help text is suitable for nosy.

This is only the kernelspace part of nosy.  There is a userspace
interface to it, called nosy-dump, proposed to be added into the tools/
subdirectory of the kernel sources in a subsequent change.  Kernelspace
and userspave component of nosy communicate via a 'misc' character
device file called /dev/nosy with a simple ioctl() and read() based
protocol, as described by nosy-user.h.

The files added here are taken from
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~krh/nosy commit ee29be97 (2009-11-10)
with the following changes by Stefan Richter:
  - Kconfig and Makefile hunks are written from scratch.
  - Commented out version printk in nosy.c.
  - Included missing <linux/sched.h>, reported by Stephen Rothwell.

"git shortlog nosy{-user.h,.c,.h}" from nosy's git repository:

Jonathan Woithe (2):
      Nosy updates for recent kernels
      Fix uninitialised memory (needed for 2.6.31 kernel)

Kristian Høgsberg (5):
      Pull over nosy from mercurial repo.
      Use a misc device instead.
      Add simple AV/C decoder.
      Don't break down on big payloads.
      Set parent device for misc device.

As a low-level IEEE 1394 driver, its files are placed into
drivers/firewire/ although nosy is not part of the firewire driver
stack.

I am aware of the following literature from Texas Instruments about
PCILynx programming:
      SCPA020A - PCILynx 1394 to PCI Bus Interface TSB12LV21BPGF
                 Functional Specification
      SLLA023  - Initialization and Asynchronous Programming of the
                 TSB12LV21A 1394 Device

Stefan Richter 5d7db0499e firewire, ieee1394: update Kconfig help
Update the Kconfig help texts of both stacks to encourage a general move
from the older to the newer drivers.  However, do not label ieee1394 as
"Obsolete" yet, as the newer drivers have not been deployed as default
stack in the majority of Linux distributions yet, and those who start
doing so now may still want to install the old drivers as fallback for
unforeseen issues.

Since Linux 2.6.32, FireWire audio devices can be driven by the newer
firewire driver stack too, hence remove an outdated comment about audio
devices.  Also remove comments about library versions since the 2nd
generation of libraw1394 and libdc1394 is now in common use; details on
library versions can be read at the wiki link from the help texts.

Stefan Richter 0c53decdd0 firewire: new stack is no longer experimental
The new stack is now recommended over the old one if used for industrial
video (IIDC/DCAM) or for storage devices (SBP-2) due to better
performance, improved compatibility, added features, and security.  It
should also be functionally on par with and is more secure than the old
ieee1394 stack in the use case of consumer video devices.

IP-over-1394 support for the new stack is currently emerging, and a
backend of the firedtv DVB driver to the new stack should be available
soon.

The one remaining area where the old stack is still required are audio
devices, as the new stack is not yet able to support the FFADO FireWire
audio framework.

Stefan Richter ad3c0fe8b8 firewire: debug interrupt events
This adds debug printks for asynchronous transmission and reception and
for self ID reception.  They can be enabled at module load time, and at
runtime via /sys/module/firewire_ohci/parameters/debug.

Signed-off-by: Jarod Wilson <jwilson@redhat.com>

Also added:  Logging of interrupt event codes and of cancelled AT
packets.

The code now depends on a Kconfig variable.  This makes it easier to
build firewire-ohci without the feature or to make it an option in the
future.  The variable is currently hidden and always on.

This feature inflates firewire-ohci.ko by 7 kB = 27% on x86-64 and by
4 kB = 23% on i686.

Stefan Richter fe77d4f283 firewire: add Kconfig help on building both stacks
Alas that won't work so good, because nobody reads help texts.

I thought about adding some crude multiple choice selection (build the
old stack, build the new stack, build both stacks).  It's possible, but
it would introduce awkward dummy config variables.
