Revert "leds: Only descend into leds directory when CONFIG_NEW_LEDS is set"

This reverts commit b1ae40a5db6191c42e2e45d726407096f030ee08.

The ExpressWire library introduced in commit 25ae5f5f4168 ("leds:
Introduce ExpressWire library") does not depend on NEW_LEDS, but without
this revert it would never get compiled if NEW_LEDS is not enabled.
Revert this commit to allow the library to be compiled.

fbdev/intelfb: Remove driver

From looking at the PCI IDs, every device supported by intelfb is
also supported by i915. Anyone still using intelfb should please
move on to i915, which does everything intelfb does but better.

Removing intelfb is motivated by the driver's excessive use of the
global screen_info state. The state belongs to architecture and
firmware code; device drivers should not attempt to access it. But
fixing intelfb would require a significant change in the driver's
probing logic. As intelfb has been obsolete for nearly 2 decades,
it is probably not worth the effort. Let's just remove it. Also
remove the related documentation.

vlynq: remove bus driver

There are no users with a vlynq_driver in the Kernel tree. Also, only
the AR7 platform ever initialized a VLYNQ bus, but AR7 is going to be
removed from the Kernel. OpenWRT had some out-of-tree drivers which they
probably intended to upport, but AR7 devices are even there not
supported anymore because they are "stuck with Kernel
3.18" [1]. This code can go.

pmdomain: Rename the genpd subsystem to pmdomain

It has been pointed out that naming a subsystem "genpd" isn't very
self-explanatory and the acronym itself that means Generic PM Domain, is
known only by a limited group of people.

In a way to improve the situation, let's rename the subsystem to pmdomain,
which ideally should indicate that this is about so called Power Domains or
"PM domains" as we often also use within the Linux Kernel terminology.

cache: Add L2 cache management for Andes AX45MP RISC-V core

I/O Coherence Port (IOCP) provides an AXI interface for connecting
external non-caching masters, such as DMA controllers. The accesses
from IOCP are coherent with D-Caches and L2 Cache.

IOCP is a specification option and is disabled on the Renesas RZ/Five
SoC due to this reason IP blocks using DMA will fail.

The Andes AX45MP core has a Programmable Physical Memory Attributes (PMA)
block that allows dynamic adjustment of memory attributes in the runtime.
It contains a configurable amount of PMA entries implemented as CSR
registers to control the attributes of memory locations in interest.
Below are the memory attributes supported:
* Device, Non-bufferable
* Device, bufferable
* Memory, Non-cacheable, Non-bufferable
* Memory, Non-cacheable, Bufferable
* Memory, Write-back, No-allocate
* Memory, Write-back, Read-allocate
* Memory, Write-back, Write-allocate
* Memory, Write-back, Read and Write-allocate

More info about PMA (section 10.3):
Link: http://www.andestech.com/wp-content/uploads/AX45MP-1C-Rev.-5.0.0-Datasheet.pdf

As a workaround for SoCs with IOCP disabled CMO needs to be handled by
software. Firstly OpenSBI configures the memory region as
"Memory, Non-cacheable, Bufferable" and passes this region as a global
shared dma pool as a DT node. With DMA_GLOBAL_POOL enabled all DMA
allocations happen from this region and synchronization callbacks are
implemented to synchronize when doing DMA transactions.

Example PMA region passes as a DT node from OpenSBI:
reserved-memory {
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
ranges;

pma_resv0@58000000 {
compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
reg = <0x0 0x58000000 0x0 0x08000000>;
no-map;
linux,dma-default;
};

genpd: Create a new subsystem directory to host genpd providers

There are currently ~60 users of the genpd provider interface, which
implementations are sprinkled across various subsystems. To simplify with
maintenance let's create a new subsystem (drivers/genpd) and start moving
the providers in there.

My intention is also to host a git tree to collect and to get the patches
tested/integrated through the linux-next tree. Ideally this should release
some of the burden on the soc maintainers.

Note that, I will of course require acks/reviews from the current platform
maintainers, hence the MAINTAINERS file needs to be updated accordingly for
each genpd provider that is moved into the new genpd subsystem.

kbuild: remove --include-dir MAKEFLAG from top Makefile

I added $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles in the following commits:

- 3204a7fb98a3 ("kbuild: prefix $(srctree)/ to some included Makefiles")
- d82856395505 ("kbuild: do not require sub-make for separate output tree builds")

They were a preparation for removing --include-dir flag.

I have never thought --include-dir useful. Rather, it _is_ harmful.

For example, run the following commands:

$ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
Error: kernelrelease not valid - run 'make prepare' to update it
UPD include/config/kernel.release
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/linux/foo'

The first command configures the source tree for x86. The next command
tries to build ARM device trees in the separate foo/ directory - this
must stop because the directory foo/ has not been configured yet.

However, due to --include-dir=$(abs_srctree), the top Makefile includes
the wrong include/config/auto.conf from the source tree and continues
building. Kbuild traverses the directory tree, but of course it does
not work correctly. The Error message is also pointless - 'make prepare'
does not help at all for fixing the issue.

This commit fixes more arch Makefile, and finally removes --include-dir
from the top Makefile.

There are more breakages under drivers/, but I do not volunteer to fix
them all. I just moved --include-dir to drivers/Makefile.

With this commit, the second command will stop with a sensible message.

$ make -s ARCH=x86 mrproper defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm O=foo dtbs
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/linux/foo'
SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd
***

# 246a1c4c 23-Jan-2023 Ondrej Zary <linux@zary.sk>

ata: pata_parport: add driver (PARIDE replacement)

The pata_parport is a libata-based replacement of the old PARIDE
subsystem - driver for parallel port IDE devices.
It uses the original paride low-level protocol drivers but does not
need the high-level drivers (pd, pcd, pf, pt, pg). The IDE devices
behind parallel port adapters are handled by the ATA layer.

This will allow paride and its high-level drivers to be removed.

Unfortunately, libata drivers cannot sleep so pata_parport claims
parport before activating the ata host and keeps it claimed (and
protocol connected) until the ata host is removed. This means that
no devices can be chained (neither other pata_parport devices nor
a printer).

paride and pata_parport are mutually exclusive because the compiled
protocol drivers are incompatible.

Tested with:
- Imation SuperDisk LS-120 and HP C4381A (EPAT)
- Freecom Parallel CD (FRPW)
- Toshiba Mobile CD-RW 2793008 w/Freecom Parallel Cable rev.903 (FRIQ)
- Backpack CD-RW 222011 and CD-RW 19350 (BPCK6)

The following bugs in low-level protocol drivers were found and will
be fixed later:

Note: EPP-32 mode is buggy in EPAT - and also in all other protocol
drivers - they don't handle non-multiple-of-4 block transfers
correctly. This causes problems with LS-120 drive.
There is also another bug in EPAT: EPP modes don't work unless a 4-bit
or 8-bit mode is used first (probably some initialization missing?).
Once the device is initialized, EPP works until power cycle.

So after device power on, you have to:
echo "parport0 epat 0" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device
echo pata_parport.0 >/sys/bus/pata_parport/delete_device
echo "parport0 epat 4" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device
(autoprobe will initialize correctly as it tries the slowest modes
first but you'll get the broken EPP-32 mode)

Note: EPP modes are buggy in FRPW, only modes 0 and 1 work.

accel/ivpu: Introduce a new DRM driver for Intel VPU

VPU stands for Versatile Processing Unit and it's a CPU-integrated
inference accelerator for Computer Vision and Deep Learning
applications.

The VPU device consist of following components:
- Buttress - provides CPU to VPU integration, interrupt, frequency and
power management.
- Memory Management Unit (based on ARM MMU-600) - translates VPU to
host DMA addresses, isolates user workloads.
- RISC based microcontroller - executes firmware that provides job
execution API for the kernel-mode driver
- Neural Compute Subsystem (NCS) - does the actual work, provides
Compute and Copy engines.
- Network on Chip (NoC) - network fabric connecting all the components

This driver supports VPU IP v2.7 integrated into Intel Meteor Lake
client CPUs (14th generation).

Module sources are at drivers/accel/ivpu and module name is
"intel_vpu.ko".

This patch includes only very besic functionality:
- module, PCI device and IRQ initialization
- register definitions and low level register manipulation functions
- SET/GET_PARAM ioctls
- power up without firmware

vme: move back to staging

The VME subsystem graduated from staging into a top-level subsystem in
2012, with commit db3b9e990e75 ("Staging: VME: move VME drivers out of
staging") stating:

The VME device drivers have not moved out yet due to some API
questions they are still working through, that should happen soon,
hopefully.

However, this never happened: maintenance of drivers/vme effectively
stopped in 2017, with all subsequent changes being treewide cleanups.
No hardware driver remains in staging, only the limited user-level
access, and I just removed one of the two bridge drivers and the only
remaining board.

drivers/staging/vme/devices/ was recently moved to
drivers/staging/vme_user/, but as the vme_user driver is the only one
remaining for this subsystem, it is easier to just move the remaining
three source files into this directory rather than keeping the original
hierarchy.

that the consumers devices can request specific line from the
providers. The patch also adds compilation support in Makefile and
menu options in Kconfig.

The provider does following:
- Registers chip with the framework.
- Provides translation hook to convert logical line id.
- Provides enable/disable, request/release callbacks.
- Pushes timestamp data to HTE subsystem.

The consumer does following:
- Initializes line attribute.
- Gets HTE timestamp descriptor.
- Requests timestamp functionality.
- Puts HTE timestamp descriptor.

several patches have been submitted to these drivers but nobody at

Therefore, remove the drivers/staging/unisys directory and delete the

(it contained the driver for the virtualized bus for the Unisys s-Par

PM: CXL: Disable suspend

The CXL specification claims S3 support at a hardware level, but at a
system software level there are some missing pieces. Section 9.4 (CXL
2.0) rightly claims that "CXL mem adapters may need aux power to retain
memory context across S3", but there is no enumeration mechanism for the
OS to determine if a given adapter has that support. Moreover the save
state and resume image for the system may inadvertantly end up in a CXL
device that needs to be restored before the save state is recoverable.
I.e. a circular dependency that is not resolvable without a third party
save-area.

Arrange for the cxl_mem driver to fail S3 attempts. This still nominaly
allows for suspend, but requires unbinding all CXL memory devices before
the suspend to ensure the typical DRAM flow is taken. The cxl_mem unbind
flow is intended to also tear down all CXL memory regions associated
with a given cxl_memdev.

It is reasonable to assume that any device participating in a System RAM
range published in the EFI memory map is covered by aux power and
save-area outside the device itself. So this restriction can be
minimized in the future once pre-existing region enumeration support
arrives, and perhaps a spec update to clarify if the EFI memory map is
sufficent for determining the range of devices managed by
platform-firmware for S3 support.

Per Rafael, if the CXL configuration prevents suspend then it should
fail early before tasks are frozen, and mem_sleep should stop showing
'mem' as an option [1]. Effectively CXL augments the platform suspend
->valid() op since, for example, the ACPI ops are not aware of the CXL /
PCI dependencies. Given the split role of platform firmware vs OS
provisioned CXL memory it is up to the cxl_mem driver to determine if
the CXL configuration has elements that platform firmware may not be
prepared to restore.

Those services are available via the Platform Environment Control
Interface (PECI) that provides a communication channel between the

Drivers: hv: Move Hyper-V extended capability check to arch neutral code

The extended capability query code is currently under arch/x86, but it
is architecture neutral, and is used by arch neutral code in the Hyper-V
balloon driver. Hence the balloon driver fails to build on other
architectures.

Fix by moving the ext cap code out from arch/x86. Because it is also
called from built-in architecture specific code, it can't be in a module,
so the Makefile treats as built-in even when CONFIG_HYPERV is "m". Also
drivers/Makefile is tweaked because this is the first occurrence of a
Hyper-V file that is built-in even when CONFIG_HYPERV is "m".

While here, update the hypercall status check to use the new helper
function instead of open coding. No functional change.

cxl/mem: Introduce a driver for CXL-2.0-Type-3 endpoints

The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of "System
RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent as if the memory
was attached to the typical CPU memory controller.

With the CXL-2.0 specification a PCI endpoint can implement a "Type-3"
device interface and give the operating system control over "Host
Managed Device Memory". See section 2.3 Type 3 CXL Device.

The memory range exported by the device may optionally be described by
the platform firmware memory map, or by infrastructure like LIBNVDIMM to
provision persistent memory capacity from one, or more, CXL.mem devices.

A pre-requisite for Linux-managed memory-capacity provisioning is this
cxl_mem driver that can speak the mailbox protocol defined in section
8.2.8.4 Mailbox Registers.

For now just land the initial driver boiler-plate and Documentation/
infrastructure.

counter: Introduce the Generic Counter interface

This patch introduces the Generic Counter interface for supporting
counter devices.

In the context of the Generic Counter interface, a counter is defined as
a device that reports one or more "counts" based on the state changes of
one or more "signals" as evaluated by a defined "count function."

Driver callbacks should be provided to communicate with the device: to
read and write various Signals and Counts, and to set and get the
"action mode" and "count function" for various Synapses and Counts
respectively.

To support a counter device, a driver must first allocate the available
Counter Signals via counter_signal structures. These Signals should
be stored as an array and set to the signals array member of an
allocated counter_device structure before the Counter is registered to
the system.

Counter Counts may be allocated via counter_count structures, and
respective Counter Signal associations (Synapses) made via
counter_synapse structures. Associated counter_synapse structures are
stored as an array and set to the the synapses array member of the
respective counter_count structure. These counter_count structures are
set to the counts array member of an allocated counter_device structure
before the Counter is registered to the system.

A counter device is registered to the system by passing the respective
initialized counter_device structure to the counter_register function;
similarly, the counter_unregister function unregisters the respective
Counter. The devm_counter_register and devm_counter_unregister functions
serve as device memory-managed versions of the counter_register and
counter_unregister functions respectively.

pairs on that path. Then the providers configure each node along the path
to support a bandwidth that satisfies all bandwidth requests that cross

i3c: Add core I3C infrastructure

Add core infrastructure to support I3C in Linux and document it.

This infrastructure adds basic I3C support. Advanced features will be
added afterwards.

There are a few design choices that are worth mentioning because they
impact the way I3C device drivers can interact with their devices:

- all functions used to send I3C/I2C frames must be called in
non-atomic context. Mainly done this way to ease implementation, but
this is not set in stone, and if anyone needs async support, new
functions can be added later on.
- the bus element is a separate object, but it's tightly coupled with
the master object. We thus have a 1:1 relationship between i3c_bus
and i3c_master_controller objects, and if 2 master controllers are
connected to the same bus and both exposed to the same Linux instance
they will appear as two distinct busses, and devices on this bus will
be exposed twice.
- I2C backward compatibility has been designed to be transparent to I2C
drivers and the I2C subsystem. The I3C master just registers an I2C
adapter which creates a new I2C bus. I'd say that, from a
representation PoV it's not ideal because what should appear as a
single I3C bus exposing I3C and I2C devices here appears as 2
different buses connected to each other through the parenting (the
I3C master is the parent of the I2C and I3C busses).
On the other hand, I don't see a better solution if we want something
that is not invasive.

Missing features:
- I3C HDR modes are not supported
- no support for multi-master and the associated concepts (mastership
handover, support for secondary masters, ...)
- I2C devices can only be described using DT because this is the only
use case I have. However, the framework can easily be extended with
ACPI and board info support
- I3C slave framework. This has been completely omitted, but shouldn't
have a huge impact on the I3C framework because I3C slaves don't see
the whole bus, it's only about handling master requests and generating
IBIs. Some of the struct, constant and enum definitions could be
shared, but most of the I3C slave framework logic will be different

gnss: add GNSS receiver subsystem

Add a new subsystem for GNSS (e.g. GPS) receivers.

While GNSS receivers are typically accessed using a UART interface they
often also support other I/O interfaces such as I2C, SPI and USB, while
yet other devices use iomem or even some form of remote-processor
messaging (rpmsg).

The new GNSS subsystem abstracts the underlying interface and provides a
new "gnss" class type, which exposes a character-device interface (e.g.
/dev/gnss0) to user space. This allows GNSS receivers to have a
representation in the Linux device model, something which is important
not least for power management purposes.

Note that the character-device interface provides raw access to whatever
protocol the receiver is (currently) using, such as NMEA 0183, UBX or
SiRF Binary. These protocols are expected to be continued to be handled
by user space for the time being, even if some hybrid solutions are also
conceivable (e.g. to have kernel drivers issue management commands).

This will still allow for better platform integration by allowing GNSS
devices and their resources (e.g. regulators and enable-gpios) to be
described by firmware and managed by kernel drivers rather than
platform-specific scripts and services.

While the current interface is kept minimal, it could be extended using
IOCTLs, sysfs or uevents as needs and proper abstraction levels are
identified and determined (e.g. for device and feature identification).

Clean up drivers/Makefile by moving the pci/endpoint and pci/dwc entries
from drivers/Makefile into drivers/pci/Makefile.

Since we don't want to introduce any dependency between CONFIG_PCI and
CONFIG_PCI_ENDPOINT, we now always execute drivers/pci/Makefile.

Hence all Makefiles in drivers/pci/ were updated accordingly so no file is
compiled when CONFIG_PCI is not defined.

Also, we add a comment to reinforce that EPC and EPF libraries must be
initialized before their users. Hence built-in EPC drivers, such as
those of Designware, are linked after the endpoint core libraries.

Finally, we add another comment to explain why obj-y has been chosen
instead of obj-$(CONFIG_PCIE_DW) to parse the dwc/ sub-folder.

slimbus: Add SLIMbus bus type

SLIMbus (Serial Low Power Interchip Media Bus) is a specification
developed by MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) alliance.
SLIMbus is a 2-wire implementation, which is used to communicate with
peripheral components like audio-codec.
SLIMbus uses Time-Division-Multiplexing to accommodate multiple data
channels, and control channel. Control channel has messages to do
device-enumeration, messages to send/receive control-data to/from
SLIMbus devices, messages for port/channel management, and messages to
do bandwidth allocation.
The framework supports multiple instances of the bus (1 controller per
bus), and multiple slave devices per controller.

This patch adds support to basic silmbus core which includes support to
SLIMbus type, slimbus device registeration and some basic data structures.

siox: new driver framework for eckelmann SIOX

SIOX is a bus system invented at Eckelmann AG to control their building
management and refrigeration systems. Traditionally the bus was
implemented on custom microcontrollers, today Linux based machines are
in use, too.

The topology on a SIOX bus looks as follows:

,------->--DCLK-->---------------+----------------------.
^ v v
,--------. ,----------------------. ,------
| | | ,--------------. | |
| |--->--DOUT-->---|->-|shift register|->-|--->---|
| | | `--------------' | |
| master | | device | | device
| | | ,--------------. | |
| |---<--DIN---<---|-<-|shift register|-<-|---<---|
| | | `--------------' | |
`--------' `----------------------' `------
v ^ ^
`----------DLD-------------------+----------------------'

There are two control lines (DCLK and DLD) driven from the bus master to
all devices in parallel and two daisy chained data lines, one for input
and one for output. DCLK is the clock to shift both chains by a single
bit. On an edge of DLD the devices latch both their input and output
shift registers.

This patch adds a framework for this bus type.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

mux: minimal mux subsystem

Add a new minimalistic subsystem that handles multiplexer controllers.
When multiplexers are used in various places in the kernel, and the
same multiplexer controller can be used for several independent things,
there should be one place to implement support for said multiplexer
controller.

A single multiplexer controller can also be used to control several
parallel multiplexers, that are in turn used by different subsystems
in the kernel, leading to a need to coordinate multiplexer accesses.
The multiplexer subsystem handles this coordination.

dax: refactor dax-fs into a generic provider of 'struct dax_device' instances

We want dax capable drivers to be able to publish a set of dax
operations [1]. However, we do not want to further abuse block_devices
to advertise these operations. Instead we will attach these operations
to a dax device and add a lookup mechanism to go from block device path
to a dax device. A dax capable driver like pmem or brd is responsible
for registering a dax device, alongside a block device, and then a dax
capable filesystem is responsible for retrieving the dax device by path
name if it wants to call dax_operations.

For now, we refactor the dax pseudo-fs to be a generic facility, rather
than an implementation detail, of the device-dax use case. Where a "dax
device" is just an inode + dax infrastructure, and "Device DAX" is a
mapping service layered on top of that base 'struct dax_device'.
"Filesystem DAX" is then a mapping service that layers a filesystem on
top of that same base device. Filesystem DAX is associated with a
block_device for now, but perhaps directly to a dax device in the
future, or for new pmem-only filesystems.

ptp_clock: Allow for it to be optional

In order to break the hard dependency between the PTP clock subsystem and
ethernet drivers capable of being clock providers, this patch provides
simple PTP stub functions to allow linkage of those drivers into the
kernel even when the PTP subsystem is configured out. Drivers must be
ready to accept NULL from ptp_clock_register() in that case.

And to make it possible for PTP to be configured out, the select statement
in those driver's Kconfig menu entries is converted to the new "imply"
statement. This way the PTP subsystem may have Kconfig dependencies of
its own, such as POSIX_TIMERS, without having to make those ethernet
drivers unavailable if POSIX timers are cconfigured out. And when support
for POSIX timers is selected again then the default config option for PTP
clock support will automatically be adjusted accordingly.

The pch_gbe driver is a bit special as it relies on extra code in
drivers/ptp/ptp_pch.c. Therefore we let the make process descend into
drivers/ptp/ even if PTP_1588_CLOCK is unselected.

ipmi: add an Aspeed BT IPMI BMC driver

This patch adds a simple device driver to expose the iBT interface on
Aspeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500) as a character device. Such SOCs are
commonly used as BMCs (BaseBoard Management Controllers) and this
driver implements the BMC side of the BT interface.

The BT (Block Transfer) interface is used to perform in-band IPMI
communication between a host and its BMC. Entire messages are buffered
before sending a notification to the other end, host or BMC, that
there is data to be read. Usually, the host emits requests and the BMC
responses but the specification provides a mean for the BMC to send
SMS Attention (BMC-to-Host attention or System Management Software
attention) messages.

For this purpose, the driver introduces a specific ioctl on the
device: 'BT_BMC_IOCTL_SMS_ATN' that can be used by the system running
on the BMC to signal the host of such an event.

The device name defaults to '/dev/ipmi-bt-host'

/dev/dax, pmem: direct access to persistent memory

Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX
(CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped
without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict,
precise and predictable. Specifically this interface:

1/ Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte,
pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.

2/ Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault
scenarios are supported.

For example, by forcing MADV_DONTFORK semantics and omitting MAP_PRIVATE
support device-dax guarantees that a mapping always behaves/performs the
same once established. It is the "what you see is what you get" access
mechanism to differentiated memory vs filesystem DAX which has
filesystem specific implementation semantics.

Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
targeted for exclusive allocations of performance differentiated memory
ranges.

This commit is limited to the base device driver infrastructure to
associate a dax device with pmem range.

power: Fix unmet dependency on POWER_SUPPLY by POWER_RESET by uncoupling them

Currently the reset/power off handlers (POWER_RESET) and Adaptive Voltage
Scaling class (POWER_AVS) are not built when POWER_SUPPLY is disabled.
The POWER_RESET is also not visible in drivers main section of config.

However they do not really depend on power supply so they can be built
always. The objects for power supply drivers already depend on
particular Kconfig symbols so there is no need for any changes in
drivers/power/Makefile.

This allows selecting POWER_RESET from main drivers config section and
fixes following build warning (encountered on ARM exynos defconfig when
POWER_SUPPLY is disabled manually):

warning: (ARCH_HISI && ARCH_INTEGRATOR && ARCH_EXYNOS && ARCH_VEXPRESS && REALVIEW_DT) selects POWER_RESET which has unmet direct dependencies (POWER_SUPPLY)

lightnvm: Support for Open-Channel SSDs

Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host
in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep
strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer
(FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the
flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash
chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their
physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features
of SSDs.

LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs
LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection,
and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block
management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata
persistence are still handled by the device.

The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and
(multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across
targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets
implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space
applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store,
object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be
application-specific.

Intel(R) Trace Hub (TH) is a set of hardware blocks (subdevices) that
produce, switch and output trace data from multiple hardware and
software sources over several types of trace output ports encoded
in System Trace Protocol (MIPI STPv2) and is intended to perform
full system debugging.

For these subdevices, we create a bus, where they can be discovered
and configured by userspace software.

This patch creates this bus infrastructure, three types of devices

to facilitate communication between the subdevices' drivers and some

stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devices

A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace
Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such
devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.

This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources
to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do
that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel
identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The
STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to
distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP
stream.

This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism
for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace
source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being
defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy
definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency.

For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and
mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism.

For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that
can be connected to an stm device at run time.

nvmem: Add a simple NVMEM framework for nvmem providers

This patch adds just providers part of the framework just to enable easy
review.

Up until now, NVMEM drivers like eeprom were stored in drivers/misc,
where they all had to duplicate pretty much the same code to register
a sysfs file, allow in-kernel users to access the content of the devices
they were driving, etc.

This was also a problem as far as other in-kernel users were involved,
since the solutions used were pretty much different from on driver to
another, there was a rather big abstraction leak.

This introduction of this framework aims at solving this. It also
introduces DT representation for consumer devices to go get the data
they require (MAC Addresses, SoC/Revision ID, part numbers, and so on)
from the nvmems.

Having regmap interface to this framework would give much better
abstraction for nvmems on different buses.

coresight: add CoreSight core layer framework

CoreSight components are compliant with the ARM CoreSight
architecture specification and can be connected in various
topologies to suit a particular SoC tracing needs. These trace
components can generally be classified as sources, links and
sinks. Trace data produced by one or more sources flows through
the intermediate links connecting the source to the currently
selected sink.

The CoreSight framework provides an interface for the CoreSight trace
drivers to register themselves with. It's intended to build up a
topological view of the CoreSight components and configure the
correct serie of components on user input via sysfs.

For eg., when enabling a source, the framework builds up a path
consisting of all the components connecting the source to the
currently selected sink(s) and enables all of them.

The framework also supports switching between available sinks
and provides status information to user space applications
through the debugfs interface.

If the kernel is built to support multi-ARM configuration with shmobile
support built in, then drivers/sh is not built. This contains the PM
runtime code in drivers/sh/pm_runtime.c, which implicitly enables the

Without this, the state of clocks depends on implicit reset state, or on
the bootloader.

If ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI then build the drivers/sh directory, but ensure that
bits that may conflict (drivers/sh/clk if the common clock framework is
enabled) or are not used (drivers/sh/intc), are not built.
Also, only enable the PM runtime code when actually running on a shmobile

mfd: Move ssbi driver into drivers/mfd

There is no reason for ssbi to have its own top-level driver directory

add single-wire serial bus interface (SSBI) driver

SSBI is the Qualcomm single-wire serial bus interface used to connect
the MSM devices to the PMIC and other devices.

Since SSBI only supports a single slave, the driver gets the name of the
slave device passed in from the board file through the master device's
platform data.

SSBI registers pretty early (postcore), so that the PMIC can come up
before the board init. This is useful if the board init requires the
use of gpios that are connected through the PMIC.

Based on a patch by Dima Zavin <dima@android.com> that can be found at:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/msm.git;a=commitdiff;h=eb060bac4

This patch adds PMIC Arbiter support for the MSM8660. The PMIC Arbiter
is a hardware wrapper around the SSBI 2.0 controller that is designed to
overcome concurrency issues and security limitations. A controller_type
field is added to the platform data to specify the type of the SSBI
controller (1.0, 2.0, or PMIC Arbiter).

[davidb@codeaurora.org:
I've moved this driver into drivers/ssbi/ and added an include for
linux/module.h so that it will compile]

PCI-Express Non-Transparent Bridge Support

A PCI-Express non-transparent bridge (NTB) is a point-to-point PCIe bus
connecting 2 systems, providing electrical isolation between the two subsystems.
A non-transparent bridge is functionally similar to a transparent bridge except
that both sides of the bridge have their own independent address domains. The
host on one side of the bridge will not have the visibility of the complete
memory or I/O space on the other side of the bridge. To communicate across the
non-transparent bridge, each NTB endpoint has one (or more) apertures exposed to
the local system. Writes to these apertures are mirrored to memory on the
remote system. Communications can also occur through the use of doorbell
registers that initiate interrupts to the alternate domain, and scratch-pad
registers accessible from both sides.

The NTB device driver is needed to configure these memory windows, doorbell, and
scratch-pad registers as well as use them in such a way as they can be turned
into a viable communication channel to the remote system. ntb_hw.[ch]
determines the usage model (NTB to NTB or NTB to Root Port) and abstracts away
the underlying hardware to provide access and a common interface to the doorbell
registers, scratch pads, and memory windows. These hardware interfaces are
exported so that other, non-mainlined kernel drivers can access these.
ntb_transport.[ch] also uses the exported interfaces in ntb_hw.[ch] to setup a
communication channel(s) and provide a reliable way of transferring data from
one side to the other, which it then exports so that "client" drivers can access
them. These client drivers are used to provide a standard kernel interface
(i.e., Ethernet device) to NTB, such that Linux can transfer data from one
system to the other in a standard way.

ARM: bcm2835: add interrupt controller driver

The BCM2835 contains a custom interrupt controller, which supports 72
interrupt sources using a 2-level register scheme. The interrupt
controller, or the HW block containing it, is referred to occasionally
as "armctrl" in the SoC documentation, hence the symbol naming in the
code.

This patch was extracted from git://github.com/lp0/linux.git branch
rpi-split as of 2012/09/08, and modified as follows:

* s/bcm2708/bcm2835/.
* Modified device tree vendor prefix.
* Moved implementation to drivers/irchip/.
* Added devicetree documentation, and hence removed list of IRQs from
bcm2835.dtsi.
* Changed shift in MAKE_HWIRQ() and HWIRQ_BANK() from 8 to 5 to reduce
the size of the hwirq space, and pass the total size of the hwirq space
to irq_domain_add_linear(), rather than just the number of valid hwirqs;
the two are different due to the hwirq space being sparse.
* Added the interrupt controller DT node to the top-level of the DT,
rather than nesting it inside a /axi node. Hence, changed the reg value
since /axi had a ranges property. This seems simpler to me, but I'm not
sure if everyone will like this change or not.
* Don't set struct irq_domain_ops.map = irq_domain_simple_map, hence
removing the need to patch include/linux/irqdomain.h or
kernel/irq/irqdomain.c.
* Simplified armctrl_of_init() using of_iomap().
* Removed unused IS_VALID_BANK()/IS_VALID_IRQ() macros.
* Renamed armctrl_handle_irq() to prevent possible symbol clashes.
* Made armctrl_of_init() static.
* Removed comment "Each bank is registered as a separate interrupt
controller" since this is no longer true.
* Removed FSF address from license header.
* Added my name to copyright header.

vfio: VFIO core

VFIO is a secure user level driver for use with both virtual machines
and user level drivers. VFIO makes use of IOMMU groups to ensure the
isolation of devices in use, allowing unprivileged user access. It's
intended that VFIO will replace KVM device assignment and UIO drivers
(in cases where the target platform includes a sufficiently capable
IOMMU).

New in this version of VFIO is support for IOMMU groups managed
through the IOMMU core as well as a rework of the API, removing the
group merge interface. We now go back to a model more similar to
original VFIO with UIOMMU support where the file descriptor obtained
from /dev/vfio/vfio allows access to the IOMMU, but only after a
group is added, avoiding the previous privilege issues with this type
of model. IOMMU support is also now fully modular as IOMMUs have
vastly different interface requirements on different platforms. VFIO
users are able to query and initialize the IOMMU model of their
choice.

Please see the follow-on Documentation commit for further description
and usage example.

pwm: Add PWM framework support

This patch adds framework support for PWM (pulse width modulation) devices.

The is a barebone PWM API already in the kernel under include/linux/pwm.h,
but it does not allow for multiple drivers as each of them implements the
pwm_*() functions.

There are other PWM framework patches around from Bill Gatliff. Unlike
his framework this one does not change the existing API for PWMs so that
this framework can act as a drop in replacement for the existing API.

Why another framework?

Several people argue that there should not be another framework for PWMs
but they should be integrated into one of the existing frameworks like led
or hwmon. Unlike these frameworks the PWM framework is agnostic to the
purpose of the PWM. In fact, a PWM can drive a LED, but this makes the
LED framework a user of a PWM, like already done in leds-pwm.c. The gpio
framework also is not suitable for PWMs. Every gpio could be turned into
a PWM using timer based toggling, but on the other hand not every PWM hardware
device can be turned into a gpio due to the lack of hardware capabilities.

This patch does not try to improve the PWM API yet, this could be done in
subsequent patches.

MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.

Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB

even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.

This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.

One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

rpmsg: add virtio-based remote processor messaging bus

Add a virtio-based inter-processor communication bus, which enables
kernel drivers to communicate with entities, running on remote
processors, over shared memory using a simple messaging protocol.

Every pair of AMP processors share two vrings, which are used to send
and receive the messages over shared memory.

The header of every message sent on the rpmsg bus contains src and dst
addresses, which make it possible to multiplex several rpmsg channels on
the same vring.

Every rpmsg channel is a device on this bus. When a channel is added,
and an appropriate rpmsg driver is found and probed, it is also assigned
a local rpmsg address, which is then bound to the driver's callback.

When inbound messages carry the local address of a bound driver,
its callback is invoked by the bus.

This patch provides a kernel interface only; user space interfaces
will be later exposed by kernel users of this rpmsg bus.

application processor running Linux, with several other asymmetric
multiprocessing (AMP) heterogeneous processors running different instances

Booting a remote processor in an AMP configuration typically involves:
- Loading a firmware which contains the OS image
- Allocating and providing it required system resources (e.g. memory)
- Programming an IOMMU (when relevant)
- Powering on the device

This patch introduces a generic framework that allows drivers to do

drivers: create a pin control subsystem

Currently it handles pinmuxing, i.e. assigning electronic

chip packages which are common in embedded systems.

The plan is to also handle other I/O pin control aspects
such as biasing, driving, input properties such as
schmitt-triggering, load capacitance etc within this
subsystem, to remove a lot of ARM arch code as well as
feature-creepy GPIO drivers which are implementing the same
thing over and over again.

This is being done to depopulate the arch/arm/* directory
of such custom drivers and try to abstract the infrastructure
they all need. See the Documentation/pinctrl.txt file that is
part of this patch for more details.

ChangeLog v1->v2:

- Various minor fixes from Joe's and Stephens review comments
- Added a pinmux_config() that can invoke custom configuration
with arbitrary data passed in or out to/from the pinmux driver

ChangeLog v2->v3:

- Renamed subsystem folder to "pinctrl" since we will likely
want to keep other pin control such as biasing in this
subsystem too, so let us keep to something generic even though
we're mainly doing pinmux now.
- As a consequence, register pins as an abstract entity separate
from the pinmux. The muxing functions will claim pins out of the
pin pool and make sure they do not collide. Pins can now be
named by the pinctrl core.
- Converted the pin lookup from a static array into a radix tree,
I agreed with Grant Likely to try to avoid any static allocation
(which is crap for device tree stuff) so I just rewrote this
to be dynamic, just like irq number descriptors. The
platform-wide definition of number of pins goes away - this is
now just the sum total of the pins registered to the subsystem.
- Make sure mappings with only a function name and no device
works properly.

ChangeLog v3->v4:

- Define a number space per controller instead of globally,
Stephen and Grant requested the same thing so now maps need to
define target controller, and the radix tree of pin descriptors
is a property on each pin controller device.
- Add a compulsory pinctrl device entry to the pinctrl mapping
table. This must match the pinctrl device, like "pinctrl.0"
- Split the file core.c in two: core.c and pinmux.c where the
latter carry all pinmux stuff, the core is for generic pin
control, and use local headers to access functionality between
files. It is now possible to implement a "blank" pin controller
without pinmux capabilities. This split will make new additions
like pindrive.c, pinbias.c etc possible for combined drivers
and chunks of functionality which is a GoodThing(TM).
- Rewrite the interaction with the GPIO subsystem - the pin
controller descriptor now handles this by defining an offset
into the GPIO numberspace for its handled pin range. This is
used to look up the apropriate pin controller for a GPIO pin.
Then that specific GPIO range is matched 1-1 for the target
controller instance.
- Fixed a number of review comments from Joe Perches.
- Broke out a header file pinctrl.h for the core pin handling
stuff that will be reused by other stuff than pinmux.
- Fixed some erroneous EXPORT() stuff.
- Remove mispatched U300 Kconfig and Makefile entries
- Fixed a number of review comments from Stephen Warren, not all
of them - still WIP. But I think the new mapping that will
specify which function goes to which pin mux controller address
50% of your concerns (else beat me up).

ChangeLog v4->v5:

- Defined a "position" for each function, so the pin controller now
tracks a function in a certain position, and the pinmux maps define
what position you want the function in. (Feedback from Stephen
Warren and Sascha Hauer).
- Since we now need to request a combined function+position from
the machine mapping table that connect mux settings to drivers,
it was extended with a position field and a name field. The
name field is now used if you e.g. need to switch between two
mux map settings at runtime.
- Switched from a class device to using struct bus_type for this
subsystem. Verified sysfs functionality: seems to work fine.
(Feedback from Arnd Bergmann and Greg Kroah-Hartman)
- Define a per pincontroller list of GPIO ranges from the GPIO
pin space that can be handled by the pin controller. These can
be added one by one at runtime. (Feedback from Barry Song)
- Expanded documentation of regulator_[get|enable|disable|put]
semantics.
- Fixed a number of review comments from Barry Song. (Thanks!)

ChangeLog v5->v6:

- Create an abstract pin group concept that can sort pins into
named and enumerated groups no matter what the use of these
groups may be, one possible usecase is a group of pins being
muxed in or so. The intention is however to also use these
groups for other pin control activities.
- Make it compulsory for pinmux functions to associate with
at least one group, so the abstract pin group concept is used
to define the groups of pins affected by a pinmux function.
The pinmux driver interface has been altered so as to enforce
a function to list applicable groups per function.
- Provide an optional .group entry in the pinmux machine map
so the map can select beteween different available groups
to be used with a certain function.
- Consequent changes all over the place so that e.g. debugfs
present reasonable information about the world.
- Drop the per-pin mux (*config) function in the pinmux_ops
struct - I was afraid that this would start to be used for
things totally unrelated to muxing, we can introduce that to
the generic struct pinctrl_ops if needed. I want to keep
muxing orthogonal to other pin control subjects and not mix
these things up.

ChangeLog v6->v7:

- Make it possible to have several map entries matching the
same device, pin controller and function, but using
a different group, and alter the semantics so that
pinmux_get() will pick all matching map entries, and
store the associated groups in a list. The list will
then be iterated over at pinmux_enable()/pinmux_disable()
and corresponding driver functions called for each
defined group. Notice that you're only allowed to map
multiple *groups* to the same
{ device, pin controller, function } triplet, attempts
to map the same device to multiple pin controllers will
for example fail. This is hopefully the crucial feature
requested by Stephen Warren.
- Add a pinmux hogging field to the pinmux mapping entries,
and enable the pinmux core to hog pinmux map entries.
This currently only works for pinmuxes without assigned
devices as it looks now, but with device trees we can
look up the corresponding struct device * entries when
we register the pinmux driver, and have it hog each
pinmux map in turn, for a simple approach to
non-dynamic pin muxing. This addresses an issue from
Grant Likely that the machine should take care of as
much of the pinmux setup as possible, not the devices.
By supplying a list of hogs, it can now instruct the
core to take care of any static mappings.
- Switch pinmux group retrieveal function to grab an
array of strings representing the groups rather than an
array of unsigned and rewrite accordingly.
- Alter debugfs to show the grouplist handled by each
pinmux. Also add a list of hogs.
- Dynamically allocate a struct pinmux at pinmux_get() and
free it at pinmux_put(), then add these to the global
list of pinmuxes active as we go along.
- Go over the list of pinmux maps at pinmux_get() time
and repeatedly apply matches.
- Retrieve applicable groups per function from the driver
as a string array rather than a unsigned array, then
lookup the enumerators.
- Make the device to pinmux map a singleton - only allow the
mapping table to be registered once and even tag the
registration function with __init so it surely won't be
abused.
- Create a separate debugfs file to view the pinmux map at
runtime.
- Introduce a spin lock to the pin descriptor struct, lock it
when modifying pin status entries. Reported by Stijn Devriendt.
- Fix up the documentation after review from Stephen Warren.
- Let the GPIO ranges give names as const char * instead of some
fixed-length string.
- add a function to unregister GPIO ranges to mirror the
registration function.
- Privatized the struct pinctrl_device and removed it from the
<linux/pinctrl/pinctrl.h> API, the drivers do not need to know
the members of this struct. It is now in the local header
"core.h".
- Rename the concept of "anonymous" mux maps to "system" muxes
and add convenience macros and documentation.

ChangeLog v7->v8:

- Delete the leftover pinmux_config() function from the
<linux/pinctrl/pinmux.h> header.
- Fix a race condition found by Stijn Devriendt in pin_request()

ChangeLog v8->v9:

- Drop the bus_type and the sysfs attributes and all, we're not on
the clear about how this should be used for e.g. userspace
interfaces so let us save this for the future.
- Use the right name in MAINTAINERS, PIN CONTROL rather than
PINMUX
- Don't kfree() the device state holder, let the .remove() callback
handle this.
- Fix up numerous kerneldoc headers to have one line for the function
description and more verbose documentation below the parameters

ChangeLog v9->v10:
- pinctrl: EXPORT_SYMBOL needs export.h, folded in a patch
from Steven Rothwell
- fix pinctrl_register error handling, folded in a patch from
Axel Lin
- Various fixes to documentation text so that it's consistent.
- Removed pointless comment from drivers/Kconfig
- Removed dependency on SYSFS since we removed the bus in
v9.
- Renamed hopelessly abbreviated pctldev_* functions to the
more verbose pinctrl_dev_*
- Drop mutex properly when looking up GPIO ranges
- Return NULL instead of ERR_PTR() errors on registration of
pin controllers, using cast pointers is fragile. We can
live without the detailed error codes for sure.

PM: Introduce devfreq: generic DVFS framework with device-specific OPPs

With OPPs, a device may have multiple operable frequency and voltage
sets. However, there can be multiple possible operable sets and a system
will need to choose one from them. In order to reduce the power
consumption (by reducing frequency and voltage) without affecting the
performance too much, a Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS)
scheme may be used.

This patch introduces the DVFS capability to non-CPU devices with OPPs.
DVFS is a techique whereby the frequency and supplied voltage of a
device is adjusted on-the-fly. DVFS usually sets the frequency as low
as possible with given conditions (such as QoS assurance) and adjusts
voltage according to the chosen frequency in order to reduce power
consumption and heat dissipation.

The generic DVFS for devices, devfreq, may appear quite similar with
/drivers/cpufreq. However, cpufreq does not allow to have multiple
devices registered and is not suitable to have multiple heterogenous
devices with different (but simple) governors.

Normally, DVFS mechanism controls frequency based on the demand for
the device, and then, chooses voltage based on the chosen frequency.
devfreq also controls the frequency based on the governor's frequency
recommendation and let OPP pick up the pair of frequency and voltage
based on the recommended frequency. Then, the chosen OPP is passed to
device driver's "target" callback.

When PM QoS is going to be used with the devfreq device, the device
driver should enable OPPs that are appropriate with the current PM QoS
requests. In order to do so, the device driver may call opp_enable and
opp_disable at the notifier callback of PM QoS so that PM QoS's
update_target() call enables the appropriate OPPs. Note that at least
one of OPPs should be enabled at any time; be careful when there is a
transition.

bcma: add Broadcom specific AMBA bus driver

Broadcom has released cards based on a new AMBA-based bus type. From a
programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does
not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We
decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean.

In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and
registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for
specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver
itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core
driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct
initialization.

Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however
the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host
abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e).

Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to
80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still
optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later
without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO
used for accessing cores on the bus.

ieee1394: remove the old IEEE 1394 driver stack

The drivers
- ohci1394 (controller driver)
- ieee1394 (core)
- dv1394, raw1394, video1394 (userspace ABI)
- eth1394, sbp2 (protocol drivers)
are replaced by
- firewire-ohci (controller driver)
- firewire-core (core and userspace ABI)
- firewire-net, firewire-sbp2 (protocol drivers)
which are more featureful, better performing, and more secure than the older
drivers; all with a smaller and more modern code base.

The driver firedtv in drivers/media/dvb/firewire/ contains backends to both
ieee1394 and firewire-core. Its ieee1394 backend code can be removed in an
independent commit; firedtv as-is builds and works fine without ieee1394.

The driver pcilynx (an incomplete controller driver) is deleted without
replacement since PCILynx cards are extremely rare. Owners of these cards
use them with the stand-alone bus sniffer driver nosy instead.

The drivers nosy and init_ohci1394_dma which do not interact with either of
the two IEEE 1394 stacks are not affected by the ieee1394 subsystem removal.

There are still some issues with the newer firewire subsystem compared to
the older one:
- The rare and quirky controllers ALi M52xx, Apple UniNorth v1, NVIDIA
NForce2 are even less well supported by firewire-ohci than by ohci1394.
I am looking into the M52xx issue.
- The experimental firewire-net is reportedly less stable than its
experimental cousin eth1394.
- Audio playback of a certain group of audio devices (ones based on DICE
chipset with EAP; supported by prerelease FFADO code) does not work yet.
This issue is still under investigation.
- There were some ieee1394 based out-of-the-mainline drivers. Of them,
only lisight, an audio driver for iSight webcams, seems still useful.
Work is underway to reimplement it on top of firewire-core.

All these remainig issues are minor; they should not stand in the way of
overall better user experience of IEEE 1394 on Linux, together with a
reduction in support efforts and maintenance burden. The coexistence of two
IEEE 1394 kernel driver stacks in the mainline since 2.6.22 shall end now,
as announced earlier this year.

firewire: nosy: fix build when CONFIG_FIREWIRE=N

drivers/firewire/nosy* is a stand-alone driver that does not depend on
CONFIG_FIREWIRE. Hence let make descend into drivers/firewire/ also
if that option is off.

The stand-alone driver drivers/ieee1394/init_ohci1394_dma* will soon be
moved into drivers/firewire/ too and will require the same makefile fix.

Side effect:
As mentioned in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586172#c24
this influences the order in which either firewire-ohci or ohci1394 is
going to be bound to an OHCI-1394 controller in case of a modular build
of both drivers if no modprobe blacklist entries are configured.
However, a user of such a setup cannot expect deterministic behavior
anyway. The Kconfig help and the migration guide at
ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org recommend blacklist entries when a dual
IEEE 1394 stack build is being used. (The coexistence period of the two
stacks is planned to end soon.)

intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors

This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
and associated Intel Xeon processors.

It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.

For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".

Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.

intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
to using C1 in idle.

vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server

What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)

common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.

What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.

How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.

Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.

Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use

Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

LinuxPPS: core support

This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".

PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.

Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.

To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch. It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal. The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.

V4L/DVB (11561a): move media after i2c

Currently drivers/media drivers are linked very early - directly after
base, block, misc, and mfd and before ata, scsi, ide, input, firewire,
usb, and i2c. This breaks static build of video4linux drivers, that use
generic CPU i2c adapter drivers and the v4l2-subdev subsystem, because
during video4linux probing the v4l2-subdev core requires a struct
i2c_adapter context, which cannot be satisfied before the i2c subsystem is
initialised. Moving drivers/media after drivers/i2c fixes this problem.

The best way to trigger action is by submitting a patch:-) So, let's see
what comes out of it - on the one hand I don't see any reason why media
has to be linked this early, and nobody was able to give me one yesterday
as this problem has been discussed on linux-media, OTOH, maybe indeed it
would be better to move i2c the whole way up above media, but that'd be
much bigger of a change, I think.

ide/net: flip the order of SATA and network init

this patch flips the order in which sata and network drivers are initialized.

SATA probing takes quite a bit of time, and with the asynchronous infrastructure
other drivers that run after it can execute in parallel. Network drivers do tend
to take some real time talking to the hardware, so running these later is
a good thing (the sata probe then runs concurrent)

This saves about 15% of my kernels boot time.

Both Dave and Jeff acked this patch and suggested it should go via the async
tree.

This won't be the only place to hold such gpio_chip code. Many external chips
add a few GPIOs as secondary functionality (such as MFD drivers) and platform
code frequently needs to closely integrate GPIO and IRQ support.

This is placed *early* in the build/link sequence since it's common for other
drivers to depend on GPIOs to do their work, so they must be initialized early
in the device_initcall() sequence.

x86: early boot debugging via FireWire (ohci1394_dma=early)

This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.

If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.

With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.

In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.

An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.

A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt
and I've put a copy online at
ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt

DCA: Add Direct Cache Access driver

Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data
is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses. This
patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA
services with devices that offer DCA services.

In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag
bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU. However, different
CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods
for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a
hardware specific magic incantation. This interface is a way for DCA
clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing
to know the specifics.

# 61e115a5 18-Sep-2007 Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de>

[SSB]: add Sonics Silicon Backplane bus support

SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices. The most
well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there
are others as well. The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx
and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom.

This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so
that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.

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: 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"

Also modify the main idle loop to allow dynticks to handle

of the code in this patch. However, I've made some additional changes,

x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from

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

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.

[WATCHDOG] Fix pcwd_init_module crash

Fix for the problem detected by Ingo Molnar:
enabling CONFIG_PCWATCHDOG=y crashes bzImage bootup.

The reason for this can be found in drivers/makefile
We first do:
obj-y += char/
and later we do:
obj-y += base/ block/ misc/ mfd/ net/ media/

So if we put a platform or isa or usb bus driver in char/watchdog
(which is called from the Makefile in drivers/char/Makefile)
then we didn't have the different device drivers initialized yet
(they are in drivers/base and drivers/usb and ...)

This fix makes sure that we compile the watchdog drivers after
drivers/base, drivers/misc, drivers/pci and drivers/usb.
We also do the compile after hwmon because in the future the
watchdog temperature support will use the hwmon system.

i2c: Add i2c_board_info and i2c_new_device()

This provides partial support for new-style I2C driver binding. It builds
on "struct i2c_board_info" declarations that identify I2C devices on a given
board. This is needed on systems with I2C devices that can't be fully probed
and/or autoconfigured, such as many embedded Linux configurations where the
way a given I2C device is wired may affect how it must be used.

There are two models for declaring such devices:

* LATE -- using a public function i2c_new_device(). This lets modules
declare I2C devices found *AFTER* a given I2C adapter becomes available.

For example, a PCI card could create adapters giving access to utility
chips on that card, and this would be used to associate those chips with
those adapters.

* EARLY -- from arch_initcall() level code, using a non-exported function
i2c_register_board_info(). This copies the declarations *BEFORE* such
an i2c_adapter becomes available, arranging that i2c_new_device() will
be called later when i2c-core registers the relevant i2c_adapter.

For example, arch/.../.../board-*.c files would declare the I2C devices
along with their platform data, and I2C devices would behave much like
PNPACPI devices. (That is, both enumerate from board-specific tables.)

To match the exported i2c_new_device(), the previously-private function
i2c_unregister_device() is now exported.

Pending later patches using these new APIs, this is effectively a NOP.

[PATCH] kvm: userspace interface

web site: http://kvm.sourceforge.net

mailing list: kvm-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
(http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kvm-devel)

The following patchset adds a driver for Intel's hardware virtualization
extensions to the x86 architecture. The driver adds a character device
(/dev/kvm) that exposes the virtualization capabilities to userspace. Using
this driver, a process can run a virtual machine (a "guest") in a fully
virtualized PC containing its own virtual hard disks, network adapters, and
display.

Using this driver, one can start multiple virtual machines on a host.

Each virtual machine is a process on the host; a virtual cpu is a thread in
that process. kill(1), nice(1), top(1) work as expected. In effect, the
driver adds a third execution mode to the existing two: we now have kernel
mode, user mode, and guest mode. Guest mode has its own address space mapping
guest physical memory (which is accessible to user mode by mmap()ing
/dev/kvm). Guest mode has no access to any I/O devices; any such access is
intercepted and directed to user mode for emulation.

The driver supports i386 and x86_64 hosts and guests. All combinations are
allowed except x86_64 guest on i386 host. For i386 guests and hosts, both pae
and non-pae paging modes are supported.

SMP hosts and UP guests are supported. At the moment only Intel
hardware is supported, but AMD virtualization support is being worked on.

Performance currently is non-stellar due to the naive implementation of the
mmu virtualization, which throws away most of the shadow page table entries
every context switch. We plan to address this in two ways:

- cache shadow page tables across tlb flushes
- wait until AMD and Intel release processors with nested page tables

Currently a virtual desktop is responsive but consumes a lot of CPU. Under
Windows I tried playing pinball and watching a few flash movies; with a recent
CPU one can hardly feel the virtualization. Linux/X is slower, probably due
to X being in a separate process.

In addition to the driver, you need a slightly modified qemu to provide I/O
device emulation and the BIOS.

Caveats (akpm: might no longer be true):

- The Windows install currently bluescreens due to a problem with the
virtual APIC. We are working on a fix. A temporary workaround is to
use an existing image or install through qemu
- Windows 64-bit does not work. That's also true for qemu, so it's
probably a problem with the device model.

extras are really ready to merge.

[PATCH] spi: simple SPI framework

This is the core of a small SPI framework, implementing the model of a
queue of messages which complete asynchronously (with thin synchronous
wrappers on top).

- It's still less than 2KB of ".text" (ARM). If there's got to be a
mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget. :)

- The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver
model tree. (Hardware probing is rarely an option.)

- This version of Kconfig includes no drivers. At this writing there
are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire)
and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML
mentions of other drivers in development.

- No userspace API. There are several implementations to compare.
Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs.

The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor,
and include:

- One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device
names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect.

- The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for
DMA drivers that want to be fancy.

- Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init. Even though board init
logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is
for driver support, and the board init support uses static init.

- Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions
with other folk. It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk
who've helped nudge this framework into existence.

As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support
that this driver framework will need to evolve.

Update the SPI framework to remove a potential priority inversion case by
reverting to kmalloc if the pre-allocated DMA-safe buffer isn't available.

Link USB drivers later in the kernel

We want to link the "regular" SCSI drivers before the USB storage
driver, since historically we've always detected internal SCSI disks
before the external USB storage modules.

The link order matters for initcall ordering, and this got broken by
mistake by commit 7586269c0b52970f60bb69fcb86e765fc1d72309 which moved
the USB host controller PCI quirk handling around.

[PATCH] RapidIO support: core base

Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel. RIO is a switched fabric interconnect
used in higher-end embedded applications. The curious can look at the specs
over at http://www.rapidio.org

The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of
devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers.

There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware features.
However, this should provide a good base for folks with RIO hardware to start
contributing.

[PATCH] USB: move handoff code

This moves the PCI quirk handling for USB host controllers from the
PCI directory to the USB directory. Follow-on patches will need to:

(a) merge these copies with the originals in the HCD reset methods.
they don't wholly agree, despite doing the very same thing; and

(b) eventually change it so "usb-handoff" is the default, to help
get more robust USB/BIOS/input/... interactions.

[NET]: Add netlink connector.

Kernel connector - new userspace <-> kernel space easy to use
communication module which implements easy to use bidirectional
message bus using netlink as it's backend. Connector was created to
eliminate complex skb handling both in send and receive message bus
direction.

Connector driver adds possibility to connect various agents using as
one of it's backends netlink based network. One must register
callback and identifier. When driver receives special netlink message
with appropriate identifier, appropriate callback will be called.

From the userspace point of view it's quite straightforward:

socket();
bind();
send();
recv();

But if kernelspace want to use full power of such connections, driver
writer must create special sockets, must know about struct sk_buff
handling... Connector allows any kernelspace agents to use netlink
based networking for inter-process communication in a significantly
easier way:

int cn_add_callback(struct cb_id *id, char *name, void (*callback) (void *));
void cn_netlink_send(struct cn_msg *msg, u32 __groups, int gfp_mask);

struct cb_id
{
__u32 idx;
__u32 val;
};

idx and val are unique identifiers which must be registered in
connector.h for in-kernel usage. void (*callback) (void *) - is a
callback function which will be called when message with above idx.val
will be received by connector core.

Using connector completely hides low-level transport layer from it's
users.

Connector uses new netlink ability to have many groups in one socket.

[PATCH] ioc4: CONFIG split

The SGI IOC4 I/O controller chip drivers are currently all configured by
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SGIIOC4. This is undesirable as not all IOC4 hardware features
are needed by all systems.

This patch adds two configuration variables, CONFIG_SGI_IOC4 for core IOC4
driver support (see patch 1/3 in this series for further explanation) and
CONFIG_SERIAL_SGI_IOC4 to independently enable serial port support.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
