2009-09-19Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissionsKay Sievers
This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero, random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no other userspace process applies the expected permissions. This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2009-08-31x86, msr: Export the register-setting MSR functions via /dev/*/msrH. Peter Anvin
Make it possible to access the all-register-setting/getting MSR functions via the MSR driver. This is implemented as an ioctl() on the standard MSR device node. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <petkovbb@gmail.com>
2009-08-31x86, msr: Have the _safe MSR functions return -EIO, not -EFAULTH. Peter Anvin
For some reason, the _safe MSR functions returned -EFAULT, not -EIO. However, the only user which cares about the return code as anything other than a boolean is the MSR driver, which wants -EIO. Change it to -EIO across the board. Signed-off-by: H.

2009-01-03x86: cleanup some remaining usages of NR_CPUS where s/b nr_cpu_idsMike Travis
Impact: Reduce future system panics due to cpumask operations using NR_CPUS Insure that code does not look at bits >= nr_cpu_ids as when cpumasks are allocated based on nr_cpu_ids, these extra bits will not be defined. Also some other minor updates: * change in to use cpu accessor function set_cpu_present() instead of directly accessing cpu_present_map w/cpu_clear() [arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c] * use cpumask_of() instead of &cpumask_of_cpu() [arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c] * optimize some cpu_mask_to_apicid_and functions.

2008-08-25x86: msr: correct return value on partial operationsH. Peter Anvin
Return the correct return value when the MSR driver partially completes a request (we should return the number of bytes actually read or written, instead of the error code.) Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Propagate error (-ENXIO) from smp_call_function_single(). These errors can happen when a CPU is unplugged while the MSR driver is open. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2008-08-15x86, msr: fix NULL pointer deref due to msr_open on nonexistent CPUsDarrick J. Wong
msr_open tests for someone trying to open a device for a nonexistent CPU. However, the function always returns 0, not ret like it should, hence userspace can BUG the kernel trivially. This bug was introduced by the cdev lock_kernel pushdown patch last May. The BUG can be reproduced with these commands: # mknod fubar c 202 8 <-- pick a number less than NR_CPUS that is not the number of an online CPU # cat fubar Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2008-04-19PM: Remove destroy_suspended_device()Rafael J. Wysocki
After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from concurrent operations involving device objects. That proved to be too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but before it happened, we had introduced the functions device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some drivers to use them. Now that these functions are no longer necessary, it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the normal device unregistration instead. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-02-01x86: fix section mismatch warnings when referencing notifiersSam Ravnborg
Fix the following warnings: WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.exit.text+0xf8): Section mismatch in reference from the function msr_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:msr_class_cpu_notifier WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.exit.text+0x158): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpuid_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpuid_class_cpu_notifier WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.exit.text+0x171): Section mismatch in reference from the function microcode_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:mc_cpu_notifier In all three cases there were a function annotated __exit that referenced a variable annotated __cpuinitdata. The fix was to replace the annotation of the notifier with __refdata to tell modpost that the reference to a _cpuinit function in the notifier are OK. The unregister call that references the notifier variable will simple delete the function pointer so there is no problem ignoring the reference. Note: This looks like another case where __cpuinit has been used as replacement for proper use of CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU to decide what code are used for HOTPLUG_CPU.

2008-01-24PM: Acquire device locks on suspendRafael J. Wysocki
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del() during suspends will block. It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr and cpuid) that need to use it.

2007-10-19x86: convert cpuinfo_x86 array to a per_cpu arrayMike Travis
cpu_data is currently an array defined using NR_CPUS. This means that we overallocate since we will rarely really use maximum configured cpus. When NR_CPU count is raised to 4096 the size of cpu_data becomes 3,145,728 bytes. These changes were adopted from the sparc64 (and ia64) code. An additional field was added to cpuinfo_x86 to be a non-ambiguous cpu index. This corresponds to the index into a cpumask_t as well as the per_cpu index. It's used in various places like show_cpuinfo(). cpu_data is defined to be the boot_cpu_data structure for the NON-SMP case.

2007-10-13Delete filenames in comments.Dave Jones
Since the x86 merge, lots of files that referenced their own filenames are no longer correct. Rather than keep them up to date, just delete them, as they add no real value. Additionally: - fix up comment formatting in scx200_32.c - Remove a credit from myself in setup_64.c from a time when we had no SCM - remove longwinded history from tsc_32.c which can be figured out from git.
