21  * DOC: Driver Synchronization Core (DSC) APIs for use by the driver
22  * orchestration layer.
23  *
24  * This infrastructure accomplishes two high level goals:
25  * 1) Replace ad-hoc locking/flags (hdd_init_deinit_lock,
26  *    iface_change_lock, con_mode_flag, etc., etc., etc.)
27  * 2) Make cds_ssr_protect() and driver state checking atomic
28  *
29  * These two goals are commplished in DSC via two corollary concepts:
30  * 1) Transitions (as in driver state machine transitions)
31  *    These are mutually exclusive, and replace ad-hoc locking
32  * 2) Operations (as in operations the driver is currently servicing)
33  *    These execute concurrently with other operations, and replace
34  *    cds_ssr_protect(). Any active transition causes new operations to be
35  *    rejected, in the same way as cds_ssr_protect/hdd_validate_context would.
36  *
37  * Transitions and operations are split into 3 distinct levels: driver, psoc,
38  * and vdev. These levels are arranged into a tree, with a single driver at
39  * the root, zero or more psocs per driver, and zero or more vdevs per psoc.
40  *
41  * High level transitions block transitions and operations at the same level,
42  * down-tree, and up-tree. So a driver transition effectively prevents any new
43  * activity in the system, while a vdev transition prevents transitions and
44  * operations on the same vdev, its parent psoc, and the driver. This also means
45  * that sibling nodes can transition at the same time, e.g. one vdev going up at
46  * the same time another is going down.
