* FILENAME:

* xdma_channel_sg.c
*
* DESCRIPTION:
*
* This file contains the implementation of the XDmaChannel component which is
* related to scatter gather operations.
*
* Scatter Gather Operations
*
* The DMA channel may support scatter gather operations. A scatter gather
* operation automates the DMA channel such that multiple buffers can be
* sent or received with minimal software interaction with the hardware.	 Buffer
* descriptors, contained in the XBufDescriptor component, are used by the
* scatter gather operations of the DMA channel to describe the buffers to be
* processed.
*
* Scatter Gather List Operations
*
* A scatter gather list may be supported by each DMA channel.  The scatter
* gather list allows buffer descriptors to be put into the list by a device
* driver which requires scatter gather.	 The hardware processes the buffer
* descriptors which are contained in the list and modifies the buffer
* descriptors to reflect the status of the DMA operations.  The device driver
* is notified by interrupt that specific DMA events occur including scatter
* gather events.  The device driver removes the completed buffer descriptors
* from the scatter gather list to evaluate the status of each DMA operation.
*
* The scatter gather list is created and buffer descriptors are inserted into
* the list.  Buffer descriptors are never removed from the list after it's
* creation such that a put operation copies from a temporary buffer descriptor
* to a buffer descriptor in the list.  Get operations don't copy from the list
* to a temporary, but return a pointer to the buffer descriptor in the list.
* A buffer descriptor in the list may be locked to prevent it from being
* overwritten by a put operation.  This allows the device driver to get a
* descriptor from a scatter gather list and prevent it from being overwritten
* until the buffer associated with the buffer descriptor has been processed.
*
* The get and put functions only operate on the list and are asynchronous from
* the hardware which may be using the list of descriptors.  This is important
* because there are no checks in the get and put functions to ensure that the
* hardware has processed the descriptors.  This must be handled by the driver
* using the DMA scatter gather channel through the use of the other functions.
* When a scatter gather operation is started, the start function does ensure
* that the descriptor to start has not already been processed by the hardware
* and is not the first of a series of descriptors that have not been committed
* yet.
*
* Descriptors are put into the list but not marked as ready to use by the
* hardware until a commit operation is done.  This allows multiple descriptors
* which may contain a single packet of information for a protocol to be
* guaranteed not to cause any underflow conditions during transmission. The
* hardware design only allows descriptors to cause it to stop after a descriptor
* has been processed rather than before it is processed.  A series of
* descriptors are put into the list followed by a commit operation, or each
* descriptor may be commited.  A commit operation is performed by changing a
* single descriptor, the first of the series of puts, to indicate that the
* hardware may now use all descriptors after it.  The last descriptor in the
* list is always set to cause the hardware to stop after it is processed.
*
* Typical Scatter Gather Processing
*
* The following steps illustrate the typical processing to use the
* scatter gather features of a DMA channel.
*
* 1. Create a scatter gather list for the DMA channel which puts empty buffer
*    descriptors into the list.
* 2. Create buffer descriptors which describe the buffers to be filled with
*    receive data or the buffers which contain data to be sent.
* 3. Put buffer descriptors into the DMA channel scatter list such that scatter
*    gather operations are requested.
* 4. Commit the buffer descriptors in the list such that they are ready to be
*    used by the DMA channel hardware.
* 5. Start the scatter gather operations of the DMA channel.
* 6. Process any interrupts which occur as a result of the scatter gather
*    operations or poll the DMA channel to determine the status.  This may
*    be accomplished by getting the packet count for the channel and then
*    getting the appropriate number of descriptors from the list for that
*    number of packets.
*
* Minimizing Interrupts
*
* The Scatter Gather operating mode is designed to reduce the amount of CPU
* throughput necessary to manage the hardware for devices. A key to the CPU
* throughput is the number and rate of interrupts that the CPU must service.
* Devices with higher data rates can cause larger numbers of interrupts and
* higher frequency interrupts. Ideally the number of interrupts can be reduced
* by only generating an interrupt when a specific amount of data has been
* received from the interface. This design suffers from a lack of interrupts
* when the amount of data received is less than the specified amount of data
* to generate an interrupt. In order to help minimize the number of interrupts
* which the CPU must service, an algorithm referred to as "interrupt coalescing"
* is utilized.
*
* Interrupt Coalescing
*
* The principle of interrupt coalescing is to wait before generating an
* interrupt until a certain number of packets have been received or sent. An
* interrupt is also generated if a smaller number of packets have been received
* followed by a certain period of time with no packet reception. This is a
* trade-off of latency for bandwidth and is accomplished using several
* mechanisms of the hardware including a counter for packets received or
* transmitted and a packet timer. These two hardware mechanisms work in
* combination to allow a reduction in the number of interrupts processed by the
* CPU for packet reception.
*
* Unserviced Packet Count
*
* The purpose of the packet counter is to count the number of packets received
* or transmitted and provide an interrupt when a specific number of packets
* have been processed by the hardware. An interrupt is generated whenever the
* counter is greater than or equal to the Packet Count Threshold. This counter
* contains an accurate count of the number of packets that the hardware has
* processed, either received or transmitted, and the software has not serviced.
*
* The packet counter allows the number of interrupts to be reduced by waiting
* to generate an interrupt until enough packets are received. For packet
* reception, packet counts of less than the number to generate an interrupt
* would not be serviced without the addition of a packet timer. This counter is
* continuously updated by the hardware, not latched to the value at the time
* the interrupt occurred.
*
* The packet counter can be used within the interrupt service routine for the
* device to reduce the number of interrupts. The interrupt service routine
* loops while performing processing for each packet which has been received or
* transmitted and decrements the counter by a specified value. At the same time,
* the hardware is possibly continuing to receive or transmit more packets such
* that the software may choose, based upon the value in the packet counter, to
* remain in the interrupt service routine rather than exiting and immediately
* returning. This feature should be used with caution as reducing the number of
* interrupts is beneficial, but unbounded interrupt processing is not desirable.
*
* Since the hardware may be incrementing the packet counter simultaneously
* with the software decrementing the counter, there is a need for atomic
* operations. The hardware ensures that the operation is atomic such that
* simultaneous accesses are properly handled.
*
* Packet Wait Bound
*
* The purpose of the packet wait bound is to augment the unserviced packet
* count. Whenever there is no pending interrupt for the channel and the
* unserviced packet count is non-zero, a timer starts counting timeout at the
* value contained the the packet wait bound register.  If the timeout is
* reached, an interrupt is generated such that the software may service the
* data which was buffered.
*
* NOTES:
*
* Special Test Conditions:
*
* The scatter gather list processing must be thoroughly tested if changes are
* made.	 Testing should include putting and committing single descriptors and
* putting multiple descriptors followed by a single commit.  There are some
* conditions in the code which handle the exception conditions.
*
* The Put Pointer points to the next location in the descriptor list to copy
* in a new descriptor. The Get Pointer points to the next location in the
* list to get a descriptor from.  The Get Pointer only allows software to
* have a traverse the list after the hardware has finished processing some
* number of descriptors.  The Commit Pointer points to the descriptor in the
* list which is to be committed.  It is also used to determine that no
* descriptor is waiting to be commited (NULL).	The Last Pointer points to
* the last descriptor that was put into the list.  It typically points
* to the previous descriptor to the one pointed to by the Put Pointer.
* Comparisons are done between these pointers to determine when the following
* special conditions exist.

* Single Put And Commit
*
* The buffer descriptor is ready to be used by the hardware so it is important
* for the descriptor to not appear to be waiting to be committed.  The commit
* pointer is reset when a commit is done indicating there are no descriptors
* waiting to be committed.  In all cases but this one, the descriptor is
* changed to cause the hardware to go to the next descriptor after processing
* this one.  But in this case, this is the last descriptor in the list such
* that it must not be changed.
*
* 3 Or More Puts And Commit
*
* A series of 3 or more puts followed by a single commit is different in that
* only the 1st descriptor put into the list is changed when the commit is done.
* This requires each put starting on the 3rd to change the previous descriptor
* so that it allows the hardware to continue to the next descriptor in the list.
*
* The 1st Put Following A Commit
*
* The commit caused the commit pointer to be NULL indicating that there are no
* descriptors waiting to be committed.	It is necessary for the next put to set
* the commit pointer so that a commit must follow the put for the hardware to
* use the descriptor.

* FUNCTION:
*
* XDmaChannel_SgStart
*
* DESCRIPTION:
*
* This function starts a scatter gather operation for a scatter gather
* DMA channel.	The first buffer descriptor in the buffer descriptor list
* will be started with the scatter gather operation.  A scatter gather list
* should have previously been created for the DMA channel and buffer
* descriptors put into the scatter gather list such that there are scatter

*
* ARGUMENTS:
*
* InstancePtr contains a pointer to the DMA channel to operate on.  The DMA
* channel should be configured to use scatter gather in order for this function
* to be called.
*
* RETURN VALUE:
*
* A status containing XST_SUCCESS if scatter gather was started successfully
* for the DMA channel.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_NO_LIST indicates the scatter gather list has not
* been created.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_LIST_EMPTY indicates scatter gather was not started
* because the scatter gather list of the DMA channel does not contain any
* buffer descriptors that are ready to be processed by the hardware.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_IS_STARTED indicates scatter gather was not started
* because the scatter gather was not stopped, but was already started.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_BD_NOT_COMMITTED indicates the buffer descriptor of
* scatter gather list which was to be started is not committed to the list.
* This status is more likely if this function is being called from an ISR
* and non-ISR processing is putting descriptors into the list.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_NO_DATA indicates that the buffer descriptor of the
* scatter gather list which was to be started had already been used by the
* hardware for a DMA transfer that has been completed.
*
* NOTES:
*
* It is the responsibility of the caller to get all the buffer descriptors
* after performing a stop operation and before performing a start operation.
* If buffer descriptors are not retrieved between stop and start operations,
* buffer descriptors may be processed by the hardware more than once.

* FUNCTION:
*
* XDmaChannel_PutDescriptor
*
* DESCRIPTION:
*
* This function puts a buffer descriptor into the DMA channel scatter
* gather list. A DMA channel maintains a list of buffer descriptors which are
* to be processed.  This function puts the specified buffer descriptor
* at the next location in the list.  Note that since the list is already intact,
* the information in the parameter is copied into the list (rather than modify
* list pointers on the fly).
*
* After buffer descriptors are put into the list, they must also be committed
* by calling another function.	This allows multiple buffer descriptors which
* span a single packet to be put into the list while preventing the hardware
* from starting the first buffer descriptor of the packet.
*
* ARGUMENTS:
*
* InstancePtr contains a pointer to the DMA channel to operate on.  The DMA
* channel should be configured to use scatter gather in order for this function
* to be called.
*
* BufferDescriptorPtr is a pointer to the buffer descriptor to be put into
* the next available location of the scatter gather list.
*
* RETURN VALUE:
*
* A status which indicates XST_SUCCESS if the buffer descriptor was
* successfully put into the scatter gather list.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_NO_LIST indicates the scatter gather list has not
* been created.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_LIST_FULL indicates the buffer descriptor was not
* put into the list because the list was full.
*
* A value of XST_DMA_SG_BD_LOCKED indicates the buffer descriptor was not
* put into the list because the buffer descriptor in the list which is to
* be overwritten was locked.  A locked buffer descriptor indicates the higher
* layered software is still using the buffer descriptor.
*
* NOTES:
*
* It is necessary to create a scatter gather list for a DMA channel before
* putting buffer descriptors into it.
