Roel Kluin a2a1c3eb40 ipw2100: fix postfix decrement errors
If i reaches zero, the loop ends, but the postfix decrement subtracts it to -1.
Testing for 'i == 0', later in the function, will not fulfill its purpose.

Dan Williams d20c678a45 [PATCH] ipw2100: send WEXT scan events
ipw2100 wasn't sending WEXT scan events at all on scan completion.  And
like ipw2200, the driver aggressively auto-scans, requiring
non-user-requested scan events to be batched together and sent at
specific intervals instead of many times per seconds.

    Change the registration return codes for when CPUIDLE

    However, it may be possible to cleanup the ACPI processor driver further

    CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver

    Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and
    limit state entry depth internally, rather than exposing such
    requirements to CPUIDLE.  As a result, CPUIDLE can drop this
    ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent.  BM
    activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
    original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
    verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

    CPUIDLE: menu governor updates

    Tweak the menu governor to more effectively handle non-timer

    may be more reliable to use the timer data structures directly.

    cpuidle: re-write

    Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
    weight.  The following is a list of changes:

    1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
    2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
    CPUIDLE drivers directly
    3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
    cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
    4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
    5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
    negative values
    6.) a variety of other small cleanups

    Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
    CPUIDLE sysfs inteface.  On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
    poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
    supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
    handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

    cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor

    Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
    full advantage of NO_HZ.  I call it the 'menu' governor because it
    considers the full list of idle states before each entry.

    I've kept the implementation fairly simple.  It attempts to guess the
    next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
    the break-even point between power savings and entry cost.  To this end,
    it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
    constraints:
         1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
            is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
            to C2-type or above.
         2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
         3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
            excluding timer interrupts.

    This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
    proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
    using the tick infrastructure.  Also, it handles device interrupt
    activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
    event calculations.  Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
    number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
    makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
    time deltas.

    The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
    interface like so:
    "echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

    cpuidle: export time until next timer interrupt using NO_HZ

    Expose information about the time remaining until the next
    timer interrupt expires by utilizing the dynticks infrastructure.
    Also modify the main idle loop to allow dynticks to handle
    non-interrupt break events (e.g. DMA).  Finally, expose sleep ticks
    information to external code.  Thomas Gleixner is responsible for much
    of the code in this patch.  However, I've made some additional changes,
    so I'm probably responsible if there are any bugs or oversights :)

    cpuidle: governor API changes

    This patch prepares cpuidle for the menu governor.  It adds an optional
    stage after idle state entry to give the governor an opportunity to
    check why the state was exited.  Also it makes sure the idle loop
    returns after each state entry, allowing the appropriate dynticks code
    to run.

    cpuidle: hang fix

    Prevent hang on x86-64, when ACPI processor driver is added as a module on
    a system that does not support C-states.

    x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from
    idle handler.  This is due to enter_idle(), exit_idle() races.  Make
    cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.

    Also, cpuidle look at the return values of attch_driver() and set
    current_driver to NULL if attach fails on all CPUs.

    cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure

    Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
    idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
    cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
    of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
    at run time.
    A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
    varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
    A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
    laptop on battery etc).
    Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
    of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.

    A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
    since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.

    This patch:

    Core cpuidle infrastructure.
    Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
    * which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
      can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
    * allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
      decision
    * The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
      about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Arnd Bergmann 135ab6ec8f [PATCH] remove remaining errno and __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ references
The last in-kernel user of errno is gone, so we should remove the definition
and everything referring to it.  This also removes the now-unused lib/execve.c
file that was introduced earlier.

Also remove every trace of __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ that still remained in the
kernel.

Arjan van de Ven 5c87579e65 [PATCH] maximum latency tracking infrastructure
Add infrastructure to track "maximum allowable latency" for power saving
policies.

The reason for adding this infrastructure is that power management in the
idle loop needs to make a tradeoff between latency and power savings
(deeper power save modes have a longer latency to running code again).  The
code that today makes this tradeoff just does a rather simple algorithm;
however this is not good enough: There are devices and use cases where a
lower latency is required than that the higher power saving states provide.
 An example would be audio playback, but another example is the ipw2100
wireless driver that right now has a very direct and ugly acpi hook to
disable some higher power states randomly when it gets certain types of
error.

The proposed solution is to have an interface where drivers can

* announce the maximum latency (in microseconds) that they can deal with
* modify this latency
* give up their constraint

and a function where the code that decides on power saving strategy can
query the current global desired maximum.

This patch has a user of each side: on the consumer side, ACPI is patched
to use this, on the producer side the ipw2100 driver is patched.

A generic maximum latency is also registered of 2 timer ticks (more and you
lose accurate time tracking after all).

While the existing users of the patch are x86 specific, the infrastructure
is not.  I'd like to ask the arch maintainers of other architectures if the
infrastructure is generic enough for their use (assuming the architecture
has such a tradeoff as concept at all), and the sound/multimedia driver
owners to look at the driver facing API to see if this is something they
can use.
