 Currently it manually flips the byte order, but we can instead use

Yes if it is easy to drop this please drop this.

And the same more or less applies to 2/9. I would rather have
an extra "if () ... else ..."  in the code in a couple of places
then change behavior on old hw where we cannot get proper test
coverage (but will likely eventually get regressions reports
if we break things).

Thanks & Regards,

I wonder if there is something obscure and the order of the
4 bytes writes matters?

In any case writing as:
 iostart = gmux_data->iostart + port;

outb(val, iostart);
outb(val >> 8, iostart + 1);
outb(val >> 16, iostart + 2);
outb(val >> 24, ioctart + 3);
almost certainly generates better code.

Sounds like it may be better to just drop this patch as there's very

A quick follow up on this, I just noticed that only the pio_write32
is doing the one byte at a time thing:

static u32 gmux_pio_read32(struct apple_gmux_data *gmux_data, int port)
{
return inl(gmux_data->iostart + port);
}

static void gmux_pio_write32(struct apple_gmux_data *gmux_data, int port,
 u32 val)
{
int i;
u8 tmpval;

for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
tmpval = (val >> (i * 8)) & 0xff;
outb(tmpval, gmux_data->iostart + port + i);
}
}

And if you look closely gmux_pio_write32() is not swapping
the order to be32 at all, it is just taking the bytes
in little-endian memory order, starting with the first
(index 0) byte which is the least significant byte of
the value.

On x86 the original code is no different then doing:

static void gmux_pio_write32(struct apple_gmux_data *gmux_data, int port,
 u32 val)
{
u8 *data = (u8 *)&val;
int i;

for (i = 0; i < 4; i++)
outb(data[i], gmux_data->iostart + port + i);
}

So yeah this patch is definitely wrong, it actually swaps
the byte order compared to the original code. Which becomes
clear when you look the weird difference between the read32 and
write32 functions after this patch.

Presumably there is a specific reason why gmux_pio_write32()
is not already doing a single outl(..., val) and byte-ordering
is not the reason.

Regards,

Hans

Correction to myself, re-reading the LPC specification, then
if I'm right and this is a LPC device then all IO in/out accesses
are always 1 byte accesses. Since the LPC bus only supports 16 / 32
bit accesses for DMA cycles.

So presumably the outl() would get split into 4 separate 8 bit
(port) IO accesses.

Hans

The ioport / indexed-ioport accessed apple_gmux-es likely are (part of?)
LPC bus devices . Looking at the bus level you are now changing 4 io
accesses with a size of 1 byte, to 1 32 bit io-access.

Depending on the decoding hw in the chip this may work fine,
or this may work not at all.

I realized that you have asked for more testing, but most surviving
macbooks from the older apple-gmux era appear to be models without
a discrete GPU (which are often the first thing to break) and thus
without a gmux.

Unless we get a bunch of testers to show up, which I doubt. I would
prefer slightly bigger / less pretty code and not change the functional
behavior of the driver on these older models.

Hans

[RFC PATCH 1/9] apple-gmux: use cpu_to_be32 instead of manual reorder

cpu_to_be32(val) for this.
