[Skiboot] [PATCH] hw/xscom: Reset XSCOM after finite number of retries when busy

Mon May 16 20:43:52 AEST 2016


OPAL retries XSCOM read/write operations forever till it succeeds.
In case XSCOM remains busy for some reason, it causes XSCOM ops to hang.
Added logic to retry XSCOM operations only XSCOM_OPS_MAX_RETRIES number
of times. Also added logic to reset XSCOM after XSCOM_BUSY_MAX_RETRIES
number of retries to unblock it, if it remains busy for some reason.
