Path to uevent helper program forked by the kernel for

Before the switch to the netlink-based uevent source, this was
|
|
|
|
used to hook hotplug scripts into kernel device events. It
|
|
|
|
usually pointed to a shell script at /sbin/hotplug.
|
|
|
|
This should not be used today, because usual systems create
|
|
|
|
many events at bootup or device discovery in a very short time
|
|
|
|
frame. One forked process per event can create so many processes
|
|
|
|
that it creates a high system load, or on smaller systems
|
|
|
|
it is known to create out-of-memory situations during bootup.

Driver Core: devtmpfs - kernel-maintained tmpfs-based /dev
Devtmpfs lets the kernel create a tmpfs instance called devtmpfs
very early at kernel initialization, before any driver-core device
is registered. Every device with a major/minor will provide a
device node in devtmpfs.
Devtmpfs can be changed and altered by userspace at any time,
and in any way needed - just like today's udev-mounted tmpfs.
Unmodified udev versions will run just fine on top of it, and will
recognize an already existing kernel-created device node and use it.
The default node permissions are root:root 0600. Proper permissions
and user/group ownership, meaningful symlinks, all other policy still
needs to be applied by userspace.
If a node is created by devtmps, devtmpfs will remove the device node
when the device goes away. If the device node was created by
userspace, or the devtmpfs created node was replaced by userspace, it
will no longer be removed by devtmpfs.
If it is requested to auto-mount it, it makes init=/bin/sh work
without any further userspace support. /dev will be fully populated
and dynamic, and always reflect the current device state of the kernel.
With the commonly used dynamic device numbers, it solves the problem
where static devices nodes may point to the wrong devices.
It is intended to make the initial bootup logic simpler and more robust,
by de-coupling the creation of the inital environment, to reliably run
userspace processes, from a complex userspace bootstrap logic to provide
a working /dev.

devres: device resource management
Implement device resource management, in short, devres. A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function. On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.
devreses are typed by associated release functions. Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function. Both usages are
supported.
devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).
This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.
* alloc/free : devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region : devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ : devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA : dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
dmam_pool_destroy()

dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism
This is the first step in defining a dma buffer sharing mechanism.
A new buffer object dma_buf is added, with operations and API to allow easy
sharing of this buffer object across devices.
The framework allows:
- creation of a buffer object, its association with a file pointer, and
associated allocator-defined operations on that buffer. This operation is
called the 'export' operation.
- different devices to 'attach' themselves to this exported buffer object, to
facilitate backing storage negotiation, using dma_buf_attach() API.
- the exported buffer object to be shared with the other entity by asking for
its 'file-descriptor (fd)', and sharing the fd across.
- a received fd to get the buffer object back, where it can be accessed using
the associated exporter-defined operations.
- the exporter and user to share the scatterlist associated with this buffer
object using map_dma_buf and unmap_dma_buf operations.
Atleast one 'attach()' call is required to be made prior to calling the
map_dma_buf() operation.
Couple of building blocks in map_dma_buf() are added to ease introduction
of sync'ing across exporter and users, and late allocation by the exporter.
For this first version, this framework will work with certain conditions:
- *ONLY* exporter will be allowed to mmap to userspace (outside of this
framework - mmap is not a buffer object operation),
- currently, *ONLY* users that do not need CPU access to the buffer are
allowed.
More details are there in the documentation patch.
This is based on design suggestions from many people at the mini-summits[1],
most notably from Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>, Rob Clark <rob@ti.com> and
Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch>.
The implementation is inspired from proof-of-concept patch-set from
Tomasz Stanislawski <t.stanislaws@samsung.com>, who demonstrated buffer sharing
between two v4l2 devices. [2]

This option enables the framework for buffer-sharing between
|
|
|
|
multiple drivers. A buffer is associated with a file using driver
|
|
|
|
APIs extension; the file's descriptor can then be passed on to other
|
|
|
|
driver.
