Dan Streetman ba47f66bd9 [PATCH] improved TT scheduling for EHCI
This updates the EHCI driver by adding an improved scheduler for the
transaction translators, found in USB 2.0 hubs and used for low and
full speed devices.

 - adds periodic_tt_usecs() and some helper functions, which does
   the same thing that "periodic_usecs" does, except on the other
   side of the TT, i.e.  it calculates the low/fullspeed bandwidth
   usage instead of highspeed.

 - adds a tt_available() function which is the new implementation
   of what tt_no_collision() does ... while tt_no_collision() ensures
   that each TT handles only 1 periodic transfer at a time (a very
   pessimistic approach) this version instead tracks bandwidth and
   allows each TT to handle as many transfers as will fit on each TT's
   downstream bus (closer to best-case).

The new scheduler is selected by a config option, marked as EXPERIMENTAL
so it can be tested (and more broadly reviewed) for a while until it
seems safe to remove the original scheduler.

The Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) is standard for USB 2.0
"high speed" (480 Mbit/sec, 60 Mbyte/sec) host controller hardware.
If your USB host controller supports USB 2.0, you will likely want to
configure this Host Controller Driver. At the time of this writing,
the primary implementation of EHCI is a chip from NEC, widely available
in add-on PCI cards, but implementations are in the works from other
vendors including Intel and Philips. Motherboard support is appearing.
EHCI controllers are packaged with "companion" host controllers (OHCI
or UHCI) to handle USB 1.1 devices connected to root hub ports. Ports
will connect to EHCI if the device is high speed, otherwise they
connect to a companion controller. If you configure EHCI, you should
probably configure the OHCI (for NEC and some other vendors) USB Host
Controller Driver or UHCI (for Via motherboards) Host Controller
Driver too.
You may want to read <file:Documentation/usb/ehci.txt>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ehci-hcd.
config USB_EHCI_SPLIT_ISO
bool "Full speed ISO transactions (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on USB_EHCI_HCD && EXPERIMENTAL
default n
---help---
This code is new and hasn't been used with many different
EHCI or USB 2.0 transaction translator implementations.
It should work for ISO-OUT transfers, like audio.
config USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB_TT
bool "Root Hub Transaction Translators (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on USB_EHCI_HCD && EXPERIMENTAL
---help---
Some EHCI chips have vendor-specific extensions to integrate
transaction translators, so that no OHCI or UHCI companion
controller is needed. It's safe to say "y" even if your
controller doesn't support this feature.
This supports the EHCI implementation that's originally
from ARC, and has since changed hands a few times.
config USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED
bool "Improved Transaction Translator scheduling (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on USB_EHCI_HCD && EXPERIMENTAL
---help---
This changes the periodic scheduling code to fill more of the low
and full speed bandwidth available from the Transaction Translator
(TT) in USB 2.0 hubs. Without this, only one transfer will be
issued in each microframe, significantly reducing the number of
periodic low/fullspeed transfers possible.
If you have multiple periodic low/fullspeed devices connected to a
highspeed USB hub which is connected to a highspeed USB Host
Controller, and some of those devices will not work correctly
(possibly due to "ENOSPC" or "-28" errors), say Y.
If unsure, say N.

---help---
The Open Host Controller Interface (OHCI) is a standard for accessing
USB 1.1 host controller hardware. It does more in hardware than Intel's
UHCI specification. If your USB host controller follows the OHCI spec,
say Y. On most non-x86 systems, and on x86 hardware that's not using a
USB controller from Intel or VIA, this is appropriate. If your host
controller doesn't use PCI, this is probably appropriate. For a PCI
based system where you're not sure, the "lspci -v" entry will list the
right "prog-if" for your USB controller(s): EHCI, OHCI, or UHCI.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ohci-hcd.

The Universal Host Controller Interface is a standard by Intel for
accessing the USB hardware in the PC (which is also called the USB
host controller). If your USB host controller conforms to this
standard, you may want to say Y, but see below. All recent boards
with Intel PCI chipsets (like intel 430TX, 440FX, 440LX, 440BX,
i810, i820) conform to this standard. Also all VIA PCI chipsets
(like VIA VP2, VP3, MVP3, Apollo Pro, Apollo Pro II or Apollo Pro
133). If unsure, say Y.

The SL811HS is a single-port USB controller that supports either
