Stephen Hemminger 1bb8155080 ncpfs: move net/ncpfs to drivers/staging/ncpfs
The Netware Core Protocol is a file system that talks to
Netware clients over IPX. Since IPX has been dead for many years
move the file system into staging for eventual interment.

Stephen Hemminger e02554e9a4 ipx: move Novell IPX protocol support into staging
The Netware IPX protocol is very old and no one should still be using
it. It is time to move it into staging for a while and eventually
decommision it.

Larry Finger 5b5ab4cb5c staging: r8822be: Add Makefiles and Kconfig for new driver
The RTL8822BE, an 802.11ac wireless network card, is now appearing in
new computers. Its driver is being placed in staging to reduce the time
that users of this new card will have access to in-kernel drivers.

This commit enables building of the new driver. For this version, all
routines are built into a single module r8822be. When this driver is
moved to the wireless tree, halmac, phydm, and rtl8822be will become
new modules.

Hans de Goede dd55d44f40 staging: vboxvideo: Add vboxvideo to drivers/staging
This commit adds the vboxvideo drm/kms driver for the virtual graphics
card used in Virtual Box virtual machines to drivers/staging.

Why drivers/staging? This driver is already being patched into the kernel
by several distros, thus it is good to get this driver upstream soon, so
that work on the driver can be easily shared.

At the same time we want to take our time to get this driver properly
cleaned up (mainly converted to the new atomic modesetting APIs) before
submitting it as a normal driver under drivers/gpu/drm, putting this
driver in staging for now allows both.

Note this driver has already been significantly cleaned up, when I started
working on this the files under /usr/src/vboxguest/vboxvideo as installed
by Virtual Box 5.1.18 Guest Additions had a total linecount of 52681
lines. The version in this commit has 4874 lines.

Linus Torvalds c6a677c6f3 Staging/IIO patches for 4.12-rc1
Here is the big staging tree update for 4.12-rc1.  And it's a big one,
 adding about 350k new lines of crap^Wcode, mostly all in a big dump of
 media drivers from Intel.  But there's other new drivers in here as
 well, yet-another-wifi driver, new IIO drivers, and a new crypto
 accelerator.  We also deleted a bunch of stuff, mostly in patch
 cleanups, but also the Android ION code has shrunk a lot, and the
 Android low memory killer driver was finally deleted, much to the
 celebration of the -mm developers.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next with a few build issues that will
 show up when you merge to your tree, I'll follow up with fixes for those
 after this gets merged.

Guenter Roeck f0690a25a1 staging: typec: USB Type-C Port Manager (tcpm)
This driver implements the USB Type-C Power Delivery state machine
for both source and sink ports. Alternate mode support is not
fully implemented.

The driver attaches to the USB Type-C class code implemented in
the following patches.

	usb: typec: add driver for Intel Whiskey Cove PMIC USB Type-C PHY
	usb: USB Type-C connector class

This driver only implements the state machine. Lower level drivers are
responsible for
- Reporting VBUS status and activating VBUS
- Setting CC lines and providing CC line status
- Setting line polarity
- Activating and deactivating VCONN
- Setting the current limit
- Activating and deactivating PD message transfers
- Sending and receiving PD messages

The driver provides both a functional API as well as callbacks for
lower level drivers.

Hans de Goede 554c0a3abf staging: Add rtl8723bs sdio wifi driver
The rtl8723bs is found on quite a few systems used by Linux users,
such as on Atom systems (Intel Computestick and various other
Atom based devices) and on many (budget) ARM boards such as
the CHIP.

The plan moving forward with this is for the new clean,
written from scratch, rtl8xxxu driver to eventually gain
support for sdio devices. But there is no clear timeline
for that, so lets add this driver included in staging for now.

VCHIQ: Make service closure fully synchronous (drv)

This is one half of a two-part patch, the other half of which is to
the vchiq_lib user library. With these patches, calls to
vchiq_close_service and vchiq_remove_service won't return until any
associated callbacks have been delivered to the callback thread.

VCHIQ: Add per-service tracing

The new service option VCHIQ_SERVICE_OPTION_TRACE is a boolean that
toggles tracing for the specified service.

This commit also introduces vchi_service_set_option and the associated
option VCHI_SERVICE_OPTION_TRACE.

vchiq: Make the synchronous-CLOSE logic more tolerant

vchiq: Move logging control into debugfs

vchiq: Take care of a corner case tickled by VCSM

Closing a connection that isn't fully open requires care, since one
side does not know the other side's port number. Code was present to
handle the case where a CLOSE is sent immediately after an OPEN, i.e.
before the OPENACK has been received, but this was incorrectly being
used when an OPEN from a client using port 0 was rejected.

(In the observed failure, the host was attempting to use the VCSM
service, which isn't present in the 'cutdown' firmware. The failure
was intermittent because sometimes the keepalive service would
grab port 0.)

This case can be distinguished because the client's remoteport will
still be VCHIQ_PORT_FREE, and the srvstate will be OPENING. Either
condition is sufficient to differentiate it from the special case
described above.

vchiq: Avoid high load when blocked and unkillable

vchiq: Include SIGSTOP and SIGCONT in list of signals not-masked by vchiq to allow gdb to work

vchiq_arm: Complete support for SYNCHRONOUS mode

vchiq: Remove inline from suspend/resume

vchiq: Allocation does not need to be atomic

vchiq: Change logging level for inbound data

vchiq_arm: Two cacheing fixes

1) Make fragment size vary with cache line size
Without this patch, non-cache-line-aligned transfers may corrupt
(or be corrupted by) adjacent data structures.

Both ARM and VC need to be updated to enable this feature. This is
ensured by having the loader apply a new DT parameter -
cache-line-size. The existence of this parameter guarantees that the
kernel is capable, and the parameter will only be modified from the
safe default if the loader is capable.

2) Flush/invalidate vmalloc'd memory, and invalidate after reads

vchiq: fix NULL pointer dereference when closing driver

The following code run as root will cause a null pointer dereference oops:

                err(1, "open failed");

Arnd Bergmann a921e9bd4e isdn: i4l: move active-isdn drivers to staging
The icn, act2000 and pcbit drivers are all for very old hardware,
and it is highly unlikely that anyone is actually still using them
on modern kernels, if at all.

All three drivers apparently are for hardware that predates PCI
being the common connector, as they are ISA-only and active
PCI ISDN cards were widely available in the 1990s.

Looking through the git logs, it I cannot find any indication of a
patch to any of these drivers that has been tested on real hardware,
only cleanups or global API changes.

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This is a fairly sizeable set of changes.  I've put them through a
  decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
  that.

  There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
  go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
  than waiting for those last few fixups.

  Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
  temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
  cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack.  We
  deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
  back if we can deprecate another one (ehca).  We also put Intel's new
  hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
  transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
  the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
  that library.

  I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
  releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
  deletions of deprecated drivers are done.

  Summary of changes for 4.3:

   - Create drivers/staging/rdma
   - Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular

   - Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
   - Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
   - Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read

Create the rdma directory in the staging area for use as we deprecate
some older drivers and as we bring in some new drivers that are in
need of work.  Update the MAINTAINERS file so that updates to these
files go to linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org.  Expected lifespan of this
directory is three releases for any deprecated drivers moved here
and an unknown, but theoretically bounded amount of time for the new
drivers as a new core RDMA transfer library needs to be written and
the drivers modified to use it in order for them to move out of this

Christian Gromm 57562a7241 Staging: most: add MOST driver's core module
This patch adds the core module of the MOST driver to the kernel's driver
staging area. This module is part of the MOST driver and handles the
configuration interface in sysfs, the buffer management and the data
routing.

MOST defines the protocol, hardware and software layers necessary to allow
for the efficient and low-cost transport of control, real-time and packet
data using a single medium (physical layer). Media currently in use are
fiber optics, unshielded twisted pair cables (UTP) and coax cables. MOST
also supports various speed grades up to 150 Mbps.
For more information on MOST, visit the MOST Cooperation website:
www.mostcooperation.com.

Cars continue to evolve into sophisticated consumer electronics platforms,
increasing the demand for reliable and simple solutions to support audio,
video and data communications. MOST can be used to connect multiple
consumer devices via optical or electrical physical layers directly to one
another or in a network configuration. As a synchronous network, MOST
provides excellent Quality of Service and seamless connectivity for
audio/video streaming. Therefore, the driver perfectly fits to the mission
of Automotive Grade Linux to create open source software solutions for
automotive applications.

The driver consists basically of three layers. The hardware layer, the
core layer and the application layer. The core layer consists of the core
module only. This module handles the communication flow through all three
layers, the configuration of the driver, the configuration interface
representation in sysfs, and the buffer management.
For each of the other two layers a selection of modules is provided. These
modules can arbitrarily be combined to meet the needs of the desired
system architecture. A module of the hardware layer is referred to as an
HDM (hardware dependent module). Each module of this layer handles exactly
one of the peripheral interfaces of a network interface controller (e.g.
USB, MediaLB, I2C). A module of the application layer is referred to as an
AIM (application interfacing module). The modules of this layer give access
to MOST via one the following ways: character devices, ALSA, Networking or
V4L2.

To physically access MOST, an Intelligent Network Interface Controller
(INIC) is needed. For more information on available controllers visit:
www.microchip.com

would use it, the old DPT controllers, which speak their own dialect and
have their own driver - and ermm.. thats about it.

We also know the code isn't in good shape as recently a patch was proposed
and queried as buggy, which in turn showed the existing code was broken
already by prior "clean up" and nobody had noticed that either.

It's coding style robot code nothing more. Like some forgotten corridor
cleaned relentlessly by a lost Roomba but where no user has trodden in years.

Move it to staging and then to /dev/null.

The headers remain as they are shared with dpt_i2o.

Linus Torvalds dab363f938 Staging patches for 3.19-rc1
Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1.
 
 We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good thing,
 but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines removed
 overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.
 
 Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
 well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid details.
 
 The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder code
 out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel.  This is code that
 has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the tens of
 millions of devices with no issues.  Yes, the code is horrid, and the
 userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going to change
 due to legacy issues that we have no control over.  Because so many
 devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable, might as
 well promote it out of staging.
 
 This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
 participating agreed that this was the best way forward.
 
 There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
 that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
 that work for another year at the earliest.  If that ever happens, and
 Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.
 
 As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been doing
 it for the past few years with no problems.  I'll send a MAINTAINERS
 entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk to the Google
 developers about if they are willing to help with it or not, last I
 checked they were, which was good.
 
 All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no
 reported issues.

Philipp Zabel 6556f7f82b drm: imx: Move imx-drm driver out of staging
The imx-drm driver was put into staging mostly for the following reasons,
all of which have been addressed or superseded:
 - convert the irq driver to use linear irq domains
 - work out the device tree bindings, this lead to the common of_graph
   bindings being used
 - factor out common helper functions, this mostly resulted in the
   component framework and drm of_graph helpers.

Before adding new fixes, and certainly before adding new features,
move it into its proper place below drivers/gpu/drm.

Jeff Kirsher d09e9b160f staging: bcm: remove driver
The Beceem WiMAX driver was barely function in its current state
and was non-functional on 64 bit systems.  Based on repeated
statements from Greg KH that he wanted the driver removed, I am
removing the driver.
