There's really no reason to keep vfs_stat_fd and vfs_lstat_fd with
Oleg's vfs_fstatat. Use vfs_fstatat for the few cases having the
directory fd, and switch all others to vfs_stat / vfs_lstat.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/suspend-2.6:
PM/Suspend: Introduce two new platform callbacks to avoid breakage
|
|
Commit 900af0d973856d6feb6fc088c2d0d3fde57707d3 (PM: Change suspend
code ordering) changed the ordering of suspend code in such a way
that the platform .prepare() callback is now executed after the
device drivers' late suspend callbacks have run. Unfortunately, this
turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power
control devices during the .prepare() callback.
For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks,
.prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to
disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line,
respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for
ACPI suspend. Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish()
platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that
is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by
device drivers and right before executing their regular resume
methods, respectively).
It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation
code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used
by ACPI platforms.

The tracing infrastructure allows for recursion. That is, an interrupt
may interrupt the act of tracing an event, and that interrupt may very well
perform its own trace. This is a recursive trace, and is fine to do.
The problem arises when there is a bug, and the utility doing the trace
calls something that recurses back into the tracer. This recursion is not
caused by an external event like an interrupt, but by code that is not
expected to recurse. The result could be a lockup.
This patch adds a bitmask to the task structure that keeps track
of the trace recursion. To find the interrupt depth, the following
algorithm is used:
level = hardirq_count() + softirq_count() + in_nmi;
Here, level will be the depth of interrutps and softirqs, and even handles
the nmi. Then the corresponding bit is set in the recursion bitmask.
If the bit was already set, we know we had a recursion at the same level
and we warn about it and fail the writing to the buffer.
After the data has been committed to the buffer, we clear the bit.
No atomics are needed. The only races are with interrupts and they reset
the bitmask before returning anywy.

Wireless USB endpoint state has a sequence number and a current
window and not just a single toggle bit. So allow HCDs to provide a
endpoint_reset method and call this or clear the software toggles as
required (after a clear halt, set configuration etc.).
usb_settoggle() and friends are then HCD internal and are moved into
core/hcd.h and all device drivers call usb_reset_endpoint() instead.
If the device endpoint state has been reset (with a clear halt) but
the host endpoint state has not then subsequent data transfers will
not complete. The device will only work again after it is reset or
disconnected.

The hooks in the module code for the function tracer must be called
before any of that module code runs. The function tracer hooks
modify the module (replacing calls to mcount to nops). If the code
is executed while the change occurs, then the CPU can take a GPF.
To handle the above with a bit of paranoia, I originally implemented
the hooks as calls directly from the module code.
After examining the notifier calls, it looks as though the start up
notify is called before any of the module's code is executed. This makes
the use of the notify safe with ftrace.
Only the startup notify is required to be "safe". The shutdown simply
removes the entries from the ftrace function list, and does not modify
any code.
This change has another benefit. It removes a issue with a reverse dependency
in the mutexes of ftrace_lock and module_mutex.

pr_debug() used to produce zero code unless DEBUG was #defined. This is
now no longer the case in practice[1].
There are places where it's useful to have debugging printks, but we don't
want them to generate any code in production kernels.
So add a new macro, pr_devel(), for _devel_opment, to provide the old
semantics, ie. if the programmer doesn't explicitly enable debugging, no
code is produced.

one distro kernel, so it's not really a solution.

V3 of the early platform driver implementation.
Platform drivers are great for embedded platforms because we can separate
driver configuration from the actual driver. So base addresses,
interrupts and other configuration can be kept with the processor or board
code, and the platform driver can be reused by many different platforms.
For early devices we have nothing today. For instance, to configure early
timers and early serial ports we cannot use platform devices. This
because the setup order during boot. Timers are needed before the
platform driver core code is available. The same goes for early printk
support. Early in this case means before initcalls.
These early drivers today have their configuration either hard coded or
they receive it using some special configuration method. This is working
quite well, but if we want to support both regular kernel modules and
early devices then we need to have two ways of configuring the same
driver. A single way would be better.
The early platform driver patch is basically a set of functions that allow
drivers to register themselves and architecture code to locate them and
probe. Registration happens through early_param(). The time for the
probe is decided by the architecture code.
See Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt for more details.

block_write_full_page doesn't allow the caller to control what happens

so the buffer head end_io handler can be provided by the caller.
This will be used by the ext3 data=guarded mode to do i_size updates in
a workqueue based end_io handler. end_buffer_async_write is also
exported so it can be called to do the dirty work of managing page

Though one can specify '-d /dev/sda1' when using blktrace, it still
traces the whole sda.
To support per-partition tracing, when we start tracing, we initialize
bt->start_lba and bt->end_lba to the start and end sector of that
partition.
Note some actions are per device, thus we don't filter 0-sector events.

Impact: makes it possible to define events in modules
The events are created by reading down the section that they are linked
in by the macros. But this is not scalable to modules. This patch converts
the manipulations to use a global link list, and on boot up it adds
the items in the section to the list.
This change will allow modules to add their tracing events to the list as
well.
Note, this change alone does not permit modules to use the TRACE_EVENT macros,
but the change is needed for them to eventually do so.

In the process to make TRACE_EVENT macro work for modules, the trace_seq
operations must be available for core kernel code.
These operations are quite useful and can be used for other implementations.
The main idea is that we create a trace_seq handle that acts very much
like the seq_file handle.
struct trace_seq *s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s, GFP_KERNEL);
trace_seq_init(s);
trace_seq_printf(s, "some data %d\n", variable);
printk("%s", s->buffer);
The main use is to allow a top level function call several other functions
that may store printf like data into the buffer. Then at the end, the top
level function can process all the data with any method it would like to.
It could be passed to userspace, output via printk or even use seq_file:
trace_seq_to_user(s, ubuf, cnt);
seq_puts(m, s->buffer);

Impact: clean up
Neil Horman (et. al.) criticized the way the trace events were broken up
into two files. The reason for that was that ftrace needed to separate out
the declarations from where the #include <linux/tracepoint.h> was used.
It then dawned on me that the tracepoint.h header only needs to define the
TRACE_EVENT macro if it is not already defined.
The solution is simply to test if TRACE_EVENT is defined, and if it is not
then the linux/tracepoint.h header can define it. This change consolidates
all the <traces>.h and <traces>_event_types.h into the <traces>.h file.

This patch fixes a hierarchical-RCU performance bug located by Anton
Blanchard. The problem stems from a misguided attempt to provide a
work-around for jiffies-counter failure. This work-around uses a per-CPU
n_rcu_pending counter, which is incremented on each call to rcu_pending(),
which in turn is called from each scheduling-clock interrupt. Each CPU
then treats this counter as a surrogate for the jiffies counter, so
that if the jiffies counter fails to advance, the per-CPU n_rcu_pending
counter will cause RCU to invoke force_quiescent_state(), which in turn
will (among other things) send resched IPIs to CPUs that have thus far
failed to pass through an RCU quiescent state.
Unfortunately, each CPU resets only its own counter after sending a
batch of IPIs. This means that the other CPUs will also (needlessly)
send -another- round of IPIs, for a full N-squared set of IPIs in the
worst case every three scheduler-clock ticks until the grace period
finally ends. It is not reasonable for a given CPU to reset each and
every n_rcu_pending for all the other CPUs, so this patch instead simply
disables the jiffies-counter "training wheels", thus eliminating the
excessive IPIs.
Note that the jiffies-counter IPIs do not have this problem due to
the fact that the jiffies counter is global, so that the CPU sending
the IPIs can easily reset things, thus preventing the other CPUs from
sending redundant IPIs.
Note also that the n_rcu_pending counter remains, as it will continue to
be used for tracing. It may also see use to update the jiffies counter,
should an appropriate kick-the-jiffies-counter API appear.

Impact: build fix for Sparc and s390
Stephen Rothwell reported that the Sparc build broke:
In file included from kernel/panic.c:12:
include/linux/debug_locks.h: In function '__debug_locks_off':
include/linux/debug_locks.h:15: error: implicit declaration of function 'xchg'
due to:
9eeba61: lockdep: warn about lockdep disabling after kernel taint
There is some inconsistency between architectures about where exactly
xchg() is defined.
The traditional place is in system.h but the more logical point for it
is in atomic.h - where most architectures (especially new ones) have
it defined. These architecture also still offer it via system.h.
Some, such as Sparc or s390 only have it in asm/system.h and not available
via asm/atomic.h at all.
Use the widest set of headers in debug_locks.h and also include asm/system.h.

Support the Intel 854 Chipset in fbdev.
We test and use the patch on a Thomson IP1101 IPTV-Box. On the VGA-Port
we get a normal signal.

Data sheet at:
http://www.sensirion.ch/en/pdf/product_information/Datasheet-humidity-sensor-SHT1x.pdf
These sensors communicate over a 2 wire bus running a device specific
protocol. The complexity of the driver is mainly due to handling the
substantial delays between requesting a reading and the device pulling the
data line low to indicate that the data is available. This is handled by
an interrupt that is disabled under all other conditions.
I wasn't terribly clear on the best way to handle this, so comments on
that aspect would be particularly welcome!
Interpretation of the temperature depends on knowing the supply voltage.
If configured in a board config as a regulator consumer this is obtained
from the regulator subsystem. If not it should be provided in the
platform data.
I've placed this driver in the hwmon subsystem as it is definitely a
device that may be used for hardware monitoring and with it's relatively
slow response times (up to 120 millisecs to get a reading) a caching
strategy certainly seems to make sense!

The documentation about the meaning of the color component bitfield
lengths in pseudocolor modes is inconsistent. Fix it, so that it
indicates the correct interpretation everywhere, i.e. that 1 << length is
the number of palette entries.
