Currently doing modprobe c_can_pci will make the kernel complain:
Unbalanced pm_runtime_enable!
this is caused by pm_runtime_enable() called before pm is initialized.
This fix is similar to 227619c3ff7c, move those pm_enable/disable code
to c_can_platform.

In order to implement byte queue limits (bql) in CAN drivers, the length of the
CAN frame needs to be passed into the networking stack after queueing and after
transmission completion.
To avoid to calculate this length twice, extend can_get_echo_skb() to return
that value. Convert all users of this function, too.

Add a frame_len argument to can_put_echo_skb() which is used to save length of
the CAN frame into field frame_len of struct can_skb_priv so that it can be
later used after transmission completion. Convert all users of this function,
too.
Drivers which implement BQL call can_put_echo_skb() with the output of
can_skb_get_frame_len(skb) and drivers which do not simply pass zero as an
input (in the same way that NULL would be given to can_get_echo_skb()). This
way, we have a nice symmetry between the two echo functions.

In the error handling in c_can_power_up(), there are two bugs:
1) c_can_pm_runtime_get_sync() will increase usage counter if device is not
empty. Forgetting to call c_can_pm_runtime_put_sync() will result in a
reference leak here.
2) c_can_reset_ram() operation will set start bit when enable is true. We
should clear it in the error handling.
We fix it by adding c_can_pm_runtime_put_sync() for 1), and
c_can_reset_ram(enable is false) for 2) in the error handling.

The naming of can_dlc as element of struct can_frame and also as variable
name is misleading as it claims to be a 'data length CODE' but in reality
it always was a plain data length.
With the indroduction of a new 'len' element in struct can_frame we can now
remove can_dlc as name and make clear which of the former uses was a plain
length (-> 'len') or a data length code (-> 'dlc') value.

When the status register is read without the status IRQ pending, the
chip may not raise the interrupt line for an upcoming status interrupt
and the driver may miss a status interrupt.
It is critical that the BUSOFF status interrupt is forwarded to the
higher layers, since no more interrupts will follow without
intervention.

When testing CAN write floods on Altera's CycloneV, the first 2 bytes
are sometimes 0x00, 0x00 or corrupted instead of the values sent. Also
observed bytes 4 & 5 were corrupted in some cases.
The D_CAN Data registers are 32 bits and changing from 16 bit writes to
32 bit writes fixes the problem.

As Dan Carpenter reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-can&m=144793696016187
the assignment of the error location in CAN error messages had some bit wise
overlaps. Indeed the value to be assigned in data[3] is no bitfield but defines
a single value which points to a location inside the CAN frame on the wire.
This patch fixes the assignments for the error locations in error messages.

The previous change 3973c526ae9c (net: can: c_can: Disable pins when CAN
interface is down) causes a slight glitch on the pinctrl settings when used.
Since commit ab78029 (drivers/pinctrl: grab default handles from device core),
the device core will automatically set the default pins. This causes the pins
to be momentarily set to the default and then to the sleep state in
register_c_can_dev(). By adding an optional "enable" state, boards can set the
default pin state to be disabled and avoid the glitch when the switch from
default to sleep first occurs. If the "enable" state is not available
c_can_pinctrl_select_state() falls back to using the "default" pinctrl state.

In 2b9aecdce2 ("can: c_can: Disable rx split as workaround") a new Kconfig

confirmed this option to be obsolete with all the other cleanups and fixes

http://marc.info/?l=linux-can&m=139746476821294&w=2
Both (author and tester) agreed to remove this Kconfig option again:

As some more cleanups took place since then a simple revert is not possible.

Mark suggested to use one IF for the softirq and the other for the
xmit function to avoid the xmit lock.
That requires to write the frame into the interface first, then handle
the echo skb and store the dlc before committing the TX request to the
message ram.
We use an atomic to handle the active buffers instead of reading the
MSGVAL register as thats way faster especially on PCH/x86.

Alexander reported that the new optimized handling of the RX fifo
causes random packet loss on Intel PCH C_CAN hardware.
After a few fruitless debugging sessions I got hold of a PCH (eg20t)
afflicted system. That machine does not have the CAN interface wired
up, but it was possible to reproduce the issue with the HW loopback
mode.
As Alexander observed correctly, clearing the NewDat flag along with
reading out the message buffer causes that issue on C_CAN, while D_CAN
handles that correctly.
Instead of restoring the original message buffer handling horror the
following workaround solves the issue:
transfer buffer to IF without clearing the NewDat
handle the message
clear NewDat bit
That's similar to the original code but conditional for C_CAN.
I really wonder why all user manuals (C_CAN, Intel PCH and some more)
recommend to clear the NewDat bit right away. The knows it all Oracle
operated by Gurgle does not unearth any useful information either. I
simply cannot believe that we are the first to uncover that HW issue.

The RX buffer split causes packet loss in the hardware:
What happens is:
RX Packet 1 --> message buffer 1 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 2 --> message buffer 2 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 3 --> message buffer 3 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 4 --> message buffer 4 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 5 --> message buffer 5 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 6 --> message buffer 6 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 7 --> message buffer 7 (newdat bit is not cleared)
RX Packet 8 --> message buffer 8 (newdat bit is not cleared)
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 1
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 2
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 3
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 4
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 5
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 6
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 7
Clear newdat bit in message buffer 8
Now if during that clearing of newdat bits, a new message comes in,
the HW gets confused and drops it.
It does not matter how many of them you clear. I put a delay between
clear of buffer 1 and buffer 2 which was long enough that the message
should have been queued either in buffer 1 or buffer 9. But it did not
show up anywhere. The next message ended up in buffer 1. So the
hardware lost a packet of course without telling it via one of the
error handlers.
That does not happen on all clear newdat bit events. I see one of 10k
packets dropped in the scenario which allows us to reproduce. But the
trace looks always the same.
Not splitting the RX Buffer avoids the packet loss but can cause
reordering. It's hard to trigger, but it CAN happen.
With that mode we use the HW as it was probably designed for. We read
from the buffer 1 upwards and clear the buffer as we get the
message. That's how all microcontrollers use it. So I assume that the
way we handle the buffers was never really tested. According to the
public documentation it should just work :)
Let the user decide which evil is the lesser one.

made me switch to favour potential and unlikely reordering over

The driver handles pointlessly TWO interrupts per packet. The reason
is that it enables the status interrupt which fires for each rx and tx
packet and it enables the per message object interrupts as well.
The status interrupt merily acks or in case of D_CAN ignores the TX/RX
state and then the message object interrupt fires.
The message objects interrupts are only useful if all message objects
have hardware filters activated.
But we don't have that and its not simple to implement in that driver
without rewriting it completely.
So we can ditch the message object interrupts and handle the RX/TX
right away from the status interrupt. Instead of TWO we handle ONE.
Note: We must keep the TXIE/RXIE bits in the message buffers because
the status interrupt alone is not reliable enough in corner cases.
If we ever have the need for HW filtering, then this code needs a
complete overhaul and we can think about it then. For now we prefer a
lower interrupt load.

The state change handler is called with device interrupts disabled
already. So no point in disabling them again when we enter bus off
state.
But what's worse is that we reenable the interrupts at the end of NAPI
poll unconditionally. So c_can_start() which is called from the
restart timer can trigger interrupts which confuse the hell out of the
half reinitialized driver/hw.
Remove the pointless device interrupt disable in the BUS_OFF handler
and prevent reenabling the device interrupts at the end of the poll
routine when the current state is BUS_OFF.

c_can_start() enables interrupts way too early. The first enabling
happens when setting the control mode in c_can_chip_config() and then
again at the end of the function.
But that happens before napi_enable() and that means that an interrupt
which comes in will disable interrupts again and call napi_schedule,
which ignores the request and the later napi_enable() is not making
thinks work either. So the interface is up with all device interrupts
disabled.
Move the device interrupt after napi_enable() and add it to the other
callsites of c_can_start() in c_can_set_mode() and c_can_power_up()

Ideally this should be handled in the can_echo_skb functions, but I
leave that exercise to the CAN folks.

commit 4ce78a838c (can: c_can: Speed up rx_poll function) hyped a
performance improvement by reducing the access to the interrupt
pending register from a dual 16 bit to a single 16 bit access. Wow!
Thereby it crippled the driver to cast the 16 msg objects in stone,
which is completly braindead as contemporary hardware has up to 128
message objects. Supporting larger object buffers is a major surgery,
but it'd be definitely worth it especially as the driver does not
support HW message filtering ....
The logic of the "FIFO" implementation is to split the FIFO in half.
For the lower half we read the buffers and clear the interrupt pending
bit, but keep the newdat bit set, so the HW will queue above those
buffers.
When we read out the last low buffer then we reenable all the low half
buffers by clearing the newdat bit.
The upper half buffers clear the newdat and the interrupt pending bit
right away as we know that the lower half bits are clear and give us a
headstart against the hardware.
Now the implementation is:
transfer_message_object()
read_object_and_put_into_skb();
if (obj < END_OF_LOW_BUF)
clear_intpending(obj)
else if (obj > END_OF_LOW_BUF)
clear_intpending_and_newdat(obj)
else if (obj == END_OF_LOW_BUF)
clear_newdat_of_all_low_objects()
The hardware allows to avoid most of the mess simply because we can
tell the transfer_message_object() function to clear bits right away.
So we can be clever and do:
if (obj <= END_OF_LOW_BUF)
ctrl = TRANSFER_MSG | CLEAR_INTPND;
else
ctrl = TRANSFER_MSG | CLEAR_INTPND | CLEAR_NEWDAT;
transfer_message_object(ctrl)
read_object_and_put_into_skb();
if (obj == END_OF_LOW_BUF)
clear_newdat_of_all_low_objects()
So we save a complete control operation on all message objects except
the one which is the end of the low buffer. That's a few micro seconds
per object.
I'm not adding a boasting profile to that, simply because it's self
explaining.

If every other line contains line breaks, that's a clear sign for
indentation level madness. Split out the inner loop and move the code
to a separate function. gcc creates slightly worse code for that, but
we'll fix that in the next step.

The network core does not serialize the access to the hardware. The
xmit related code lets the following happen:
CPU0 CPU1
interrupt()
do_poll()
c_can_do_tx()
Fiddle with HW and xmit()
internal data Fiddle with HW and
internal data
due the complete lack of serialization.
Add proper locking.
