Nathan Lynch 83c79b55f0 sysfs-rules.txt: reword API stability statement
The first paragraph of this document implies that user space developers
shouldn't use sysfs at all, but then it goes on to describe rules that
developers should follow when accessing sysfs.  Not only is this somewhat
self-contradictory, it has been shown to discourage developers from using
established sysfs interfaces.

A note of caution is more appropriate than a blanket "sysfs will never
be stable" assertion.

Hans J. Koch 328a14e70e UIO: Add write function to allow irq masking
Sometimes it is necessary to enable/disable the interrupt of a UIO device
from the userspace part of the driver. With this patch, the UIO kernel driver
can implement an "irqcontrol()" function that does this. Userspace can write
an s32 value to /dev/uioX (usually 0 or 1 to turn the irq off or on). The
UIO core will then call the driver's irqcontrol function.

Dan Williams e105b8bfc7 sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minor
Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path.  For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK?  With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.

What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
   the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
   seems counter productive.

2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
   udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
   environment like an initramfs.

3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

Mark Nelson 1ed6af7344 powerpc/cell: Add DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING dma attribute and use in Cell IOMMU code
Introduce a new dma attriblue DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING to use weak ordering
on DMA mappings in the Cell processor. Add the code to the Cell's IOMMU
implementation to use this code.

Dynamic mappings can be weakly or strongly ordered on an individual basis
but the fixed mapping has to be either completely strong or completely weak.
This is currently decided by a kernel boot option (pass iommu_fixed=weak
for a weakly ordered fixed linear mapping, strongly ordered is the default).

Alan Stern 86c57edf60 USB: use reset_resume when normal resume fails
This patch (as1109b) makes USB-Persist more resilient to errors.  With
the current code, if a normal resume fails, it's an unrecoverable
error.  With the patch, if a normal resume fails (and if the device is
enabled for USB-Persist) then a reset-resume is tried.

This fixes the problem reported in Bugzilla #10977.

David Brownell 4d5a73dc39 usb gadget serial: split out CDC ACM function
Split out CDC ACM parts of "gadget serial" to a "function driver".
Some key structural differences from the previous ACM support, shared
with with the generic serial function (next patch):

 - As a function driver, it can be combined with other functions.
   One gadget configuration could offer both serial and network
   links, as an example.

 - One serial port can be exposed in multiple configurations;
   the /dev/ttyGS0 node could be exposed regardless of which
   config the host selected.

 - One configuration can expose multiple serial ports, such as
   ttyGS0, ttyGS1, ttyGS2, and ttyGS3.

This code should be a lot easier to understand than the previous
all-in-one-big-file version of the driver.

David Brownell 40982be52d usb gadget: composite gadget core
Add <linux/usb/composite.h> interfaces for composite gadget drivers, and
basic implementation support behind it:

  - struct usb_function ... groups one or more interfaces into a function
    managed as one unit within a configuration, to which it's added by
    usb_add_function().

  - struct usb_configuration ... groups one or more such functions into
    a configuration managed as one unit by a driver, to which it's added
    by usb_add_config().  These operate at either high or full/low speeds
    and at a given bMaxPower.

  - struct usb_composite_driver ... groups one or more such configurations
    into a gadget driver, which may be registered or unregistered.

  - struct usb_composite_dev ... a usb_composite_driver manages this; it
    wraps the usb_gadget exposed by the controller driver.

This also includes some basic kerneldoc.

How to use it (the short version):  provide a usb_composite_driver with a
bind() that calls usb_add_config() for each of the needed configurations.
The configurations in turn have bind() calls, which will usb_add_function()
for each function required.  Each function's bind() allocates resources
needed to perform its tasks, like endpoints; sometimes configurations will
allocate resources too.

Separate patches will convert most gadget drivers to this infrastructure.

David Brownell a7707adf9e usb gadget: use new serial core
Teach "gadget serial" to use the new abstracted (and bugfixed) TTY glue,
and remove all the orignal tangled-up code.  Update the documentation
accordingly.  This is a net object code shrink and cleanup; it should
make it a lot easier to see how the TTY glue should accomodate updates
to the TTY layer, be bugfixed, etc.

Notable behavior changes include:  it can now support getty even when
there's no USB connection; it fits properly into the mdev/udev world;
and RX handling is better (throttling works, and low latency).

Configurations with scripts setting up the /dev/ttygserial device node
(with "experimental" major number) may want to change that to be a
symlink pointing to the /dev/ttyGS0 file, as a migration aid; else,
just switch entirely over to mdev/udev.

Setsockopt values greater than 0xffff can cause an unwanted

it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are
still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters
waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime.

This patch:
 - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure,
 - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(),
 - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n),
 - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs,
 - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit,
 - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter,
 - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT),
 - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT
 - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling.

If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend.
Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area
to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with
acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 0e74dc2646 ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add bluetooth and WWAN rfkill support
Add a read/write rfkill interface to the bluetooth radio switch on the
bluetooth submodule, and one for the wireless wan radio switch to the wan
submodule.

Since rfkill does care for when a switch changes state, use WLSW
notifications to also check if the WWAN or Bluetooth switches did not
change state (due to them being slaves of WLSW in firmware/hardware, but
that reality not being always properly exported by the thinkpad firmware).

Neil Brown d7027458d6 md: Tidy up rdev_size_store a bit:
- used strict_strtoull in place of simple_strtoull
 - use my_mddev in place of rdev->mddev (they have the same value)
and more significantly,
 - don't adjust mddev->size to fit, rather reject changes which make
   rdev->size smaller than mddev->size

Adjusting mddev->size is a hangover from bind_rdev_to_array which
does a similar thing.  But it really is a better design to insist that
mddev->size is set as required, then the rdev->sizes are set to allow
for that.  The previous way invites confusion.

Haavard Skinnemoen 6bb0e3a59a Subject: [PATCH 1/2] serial: Add flush_buffer() operation to uart_ops
Serial drivers using DMA (like the atmel_serial driver) tend to get very
confused when the xmit buffer is flushed and nobody told them.  They
also tend to spew a lot of garbage since the DMA engine keeps running
after the buffer is flushed and possibly refilled with unrelated data.

This patch adds a new flush_buffer operation to the uart_ops struct,
along with a call to it from uart_flush_buffer() right after the xmit
buffer has been cleared. The driver can implement this in order to
syncronize its internal DMA state with the xmit buffer when the buffer
is flushed.

Joel Becker a6795e9ebb configfs: Allow ->make_item() and ->make_group() to return detailed errors.
The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group.  A return of NULL signifies an error.  Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.

Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail.  This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return ERR_PTR() values.  These errors are
bubbled up appropriately.  NULL returns are changed to -ENOMEM for
compatibility.

Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

This is a rework of reverted commit 11c3b79218.

Zhao Yakui da5e09a1b3 ACPI : Create "idle=nomwait" bootparam
"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT
instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH)
C-states.

When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally
negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1,
and use IO accesses for deeper C-states.

This option is useful for power and performance
comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs
where broken MWAIT support is advertised.

Zhao Yakui c1e3b377ad ACPI: Create "idle=halt" bootparam
"idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using
the halt instruction.  No MWAIT, no IO accesses,
no C-states deeper than C1.

If something is broken in the idle code,
"idle=halt" is a less severe workaround
than "idle=poll" which disables all power savings.

Allow users to enable/disable/clear a specific & valid GPE/Fixed Event
in user space.

This is useful for debugging, especially for some
interrupt storm issues.

All wakeup GPEs are disabled and they can not be enabled at runtime,
and we mark them as invalid.

All GPEs that don't have a _Lxx/_Exx method are marked as invalid.

All Fixed Events that don't have an event handler are marked as invalid
and they can't be enabled until an event handler is registered.

Elias Oltmanns 64a8f00ff1 IDE: Report errors during drive reset back to user space
Make sure that each error condition during the execution of an
HDIO_DRIVE_RESET ioctl is actually reported to the calling process.
Also, unify the exit path of reset_pollfunc() when returning ide_stopped
since the need of ->port_ops->reset_poll() to be treated specially has
vanished (way back, it seems).

Joel Becker 11c3b79218 configfs: Allow ->make_item() and ->make_group() to return detailed errors.
The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group.  A return of NULL signifies an error.  Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.

Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail.  This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return an int.

Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

Jean Delvare 4735c98f84 i2c: Add detection capability to new-style drivers
Add a mechanism to let new-style i2c drivers optionally autodetect
devices they would support on selected buses and ask i2c-core to
instantiate them. This is a replacement for legacy i2c drivers, much
cleaner.

Where drivers had to implement both a legacy i2c_driver and a
new-style i2c_driver so far, this mechanism makes it possible to get
rid of the legacy i2c_driver and implement both enumerated and
detected device support with just one (new-style) i2c_driver.

Here is a quick conversion guide for these drivers, step by step:

* Delete the legacy driver definition, registration and removal.
  Delete the attach_adapter and detach_client methods of the legacy
  driver.

* Change the prototype of the legacy detect function from
    static int foo_detect(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, int address, int kind);
  to
    static int foo_detect(struct i2c_client *client, int kind,
    			  struct i2c_board_info *info);

* Set the new-style driver detect callback to this new function, and
  set its address_data to &addr_data (addr_data is generally provided
  by I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD.)

* Add the appropriate class to the new-style driver. This is
  typically the class the legacy attach_adapter method was checking
  for. Class checking is now mandatory (done by i2c-core.) See
  <linux/i2c.h> for the list of available classes.

* Remove the i2c_client allocation and freeing from the detect
  function. A pre-allocated client is now handed to you by i2c-core,
  and is freed automatically.

* Make the detect function fill the type field of the i2c_board_info
  structure it was passed as a parameter, and return 0, on success. If
  the detection fails, return -ENODEV.

Bernhard Walle 69ac9cd629 sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmap
This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS
(or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like:

    /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start   (hex number)
                           end     (hex number)
                           type    (string)
    ...                 /1/start
                           end
                           type

With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form
the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map).

  --------- 8< --------------------------
    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/firmware/memmap
    for dir in * ; do
        start=$(cat $dir/start)
        end=$(cat $dir/end)
        type=$(cat $dir/type)
        printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
    done
  --------- >8 --------------------------

That patch only provides the needed interface:

 1. The sysfs interface.
 2. The structure and enumeration definition.
 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early()
    that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for
    example) to add the contents to the interface.

If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does
nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's.

The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents
the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap'
and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory
map provided via the firmware. So kexec can:

 - use the original memory map for rebooting,
 - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump
   case that should only represent the memory of the system.

The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

Cyrill Gorcunov afda335dc3 x86: nmi_watchdog - documentation fix
nmi_watchdog is set to NMI_NONE by default (ie disabled) on _any_
mode so lets fix documentation too.

Paul Jackson 200001eb14 x86 boot: only pick up additional EFI memmap if add_efi_memmap flag
Applies on top of the previous patch:
  x86 boot: add code to add BIOS provided EFI memory entries to kernel

Instead of always adding EFI memory map entries (if present) to the
memory map after initially finding either E820 BIOS memory map entries
and/or kernel command line memmap entries, -instead- only add such
additional EFI memory map entries if the kernel boot option:

    add_efi_memmap

is specified.

Requiring this 'add_efi_memmap' option is backward compatible with
kernels that didn't load such additional EFI memory map entries in
the first place, and it doesn't override a configuration that tries
to replace all E820 or EFI BIOS memory map entries with ones given
entirely on the kernel command line.
