The 'latency timer' of PCI devices, both Type 0 and Type 1, is setup in architecture-specific code [see: pcibios_set_master()]. There are two approaches being taken by all the architectures - check if the 'latency timer' is currently set between 16 and 255 and if not bring it within bounds, or, do nothing (and then there is the gratuitously different parisc implementation). There is nothing architecture-specific about PCI's 'latency timer' so this patch pulls the setup functionality up into the PCI core by creating a generic 'pcibios_set_master()' function using the 'weak' attribute which can be used by all architectures as a default which, if absolutely necessary, can then be over-ridden by architecture- pecific code. With the generic 'pcibios_set_master()' function in place the series removes the now redundant function from the following architectures: frv, mips, mn10300, sh, and x86. I believe that alpha, arm, and arch-v32 could also be removed and use the default but I was not comfortable with those architectures so any feedback there as to whether or not they should be included would be appreciated. I have only tested x86. --- Myron Stowe (7): PCI: latency timer doesn't apply to PCIe PCI: x86: use generic pcibios_set_master() PCI: sh: use generic pcibios_set_master() PCI: mn10300: use generic pcibios_set_master() PCI: mips: use generic pcibios_set_master() PCI: frv: use generic pcibios_set_master() PCI: Pull PCI 'latency timer' setup up into the core arch/arm/common/it8152.c | 7 ------- arch/frv/mb93090-mb00/pci-frv.c | 20 ------------------- arch/frv/mb93090-mb00/pci-frv.h | 2 -- arch/mips/pci/pci.c | 21 -------------------- arch/mn10300/unit-asb2305/pci-asb2305.c | 22 --------------------- arch/mn10300/unit-asb2305/pci-asb2305.h | 2 -- arch/sh/drivers/pci/pci.c | 21 -------------------- arch/x86/include/asm/pci_x86.h | 2 -- arch/x86/pci/i386.c | 20 ------------------- drivers/pci/pci.c | 33 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/pci.h | 5 +++++ 11 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 117 deletions(-) -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
