[PATCH 4/4 RFC] firewire: cdev: add PHY packet reception

From: Stefan Richter
Date: Fri Jul 16 2010 - 16:26:10 EST

Add an FW_CDEV_IOC_RECEIVE_PHY_PACKETS ioctl() and
FW_CDEV_EVENT_PHY_PACKET_RECEIVED poll()/read() event for /dev/fw*.
This can be used to get information from remote PHYs by remote access
PHY packets.

This is also the 2nd half of the functionality (the receive part) to
support a userspace implementation of a VersaPHY transaction layer.

Safety considerations:

- PHY packets are generally broadcasts, hence some kind of elevated
privileges should be required of a process to be able to listen in
on PHY packets. This implementation assumes that a process that is
allowed to open the /dev/fw* of a local node does have this
privilege.

There was an inconclusive discussion about introducing POSIX
capabilities as a means to check for user privileges for these
kinds of operations.

Other limitations:

- PHY packet reception may be switched on by ioctl() but cannot be
switched off again. It would be trivial to provide an off switch,
but this is not worth the code. The client should simply close()
the fd then, or just ignore further events.

- For sake of simplicity of API and kernel-side implementation, no
filter per packet content is provided.
