2008-10-23[PATCH] kill d_alloc_anonChristoph Hellwig

2008-10-23[PATCH] new helper: d_obtain_aliasChristoph Hellwig
The calling conventions of d_alloc_anon are rather unfortunate for all users, and it's name is not very descriptive either. Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations. Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers to d_obtain_alias.

2008-10-23net: Fix disjunct computation of netdev featuresHerbert Xu
My change commit e2a6b85247aacc52d6ba0d9b37a99b8d1a3e0d83 net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device didn't do what was intended because the netdev_compute_features function was designed for conjunctions. So what happened was that it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device. This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions under the new name of netdev_increment_features. It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration. This ensures that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via ethtool. The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-10-22libata: transfer EHI control flags to slave ehc.iTejun Heo
ATA_EHI_NO_AUTOPSY and ATA_EHI_QUIET are used to control the behavior of EH. As only the master link is visible outside EH, these flags are set only for the master link although they should also apply to the slave link, which causes spurious EH messages during probe and suspend/resume. This patch transfers those two flags to slave ehc.i before performing slave autopsy and reporting. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-10-22PCI: Hotplug core: remove 'name'Alex Chiang
Now that the PCI core manages the 'name' for each individual hotplug driver, and all drivers (except rpaphp) have been converted to use hotplug_slot_name(), there is no need for the PCI hotplug core to drag around its own copy of name either.

2008-10-22PCI, PCI Hotplug: introduce slot_name helpersAlex Chiang
In preparation for cleaning up the various hotplug drivers such that they don't have to manage their own 'name' parameters anymore, we provide the following convenience functions: pci_slot_name() hotplug_slot_name() These helpers will be used by individual hotplug drivers.

2008-10-22PCI: update pci_create_slot() to take a 'hotplug' paramAlex Chiang
Slot detection drivers can co-exist with hotplug drivers. The names of the detected/claimed slots may be different depending on module load order. For legacy reasons, we need to allow hotplug drivers to override the slot name if a detection driver is loaded first (and they find the same slots). Creating and overriding slot names should be an atomic operation, otherwise you get a locking nightmare as various drivers race to call pci_create_slot(). pci_create_slot() is already serialized by grabbing the pci_bus_sem. We update the API and add a 'hotplug' param, which is: set if the caller is a hotplug driver NULL if the caller is a detection driver pci_create_slot() does not actually use the 'hotplug' parameter in this patch. A later patch will add the logic that uses it.

2008-10-22PCI Hotplug core: add 'name' param pci_hp_register interfaceAlex Chiang
Update pci_hp_register() to take a const char *name parameter. The motivation for this is to clean up the individual hotplug drivers so that each one does not have to manage its own name. The PCI core should be the place where we manage the name. We update the interface and all callsites first, in a "no functional change" manner, and clean up the drivers later.

2008-10-22PCI: add support for function level resetSheng Yang
Sometimes, it's necessary to enable software's ability to quiesce and reset endpoint hardware with function-level granularity, so provide support for it. The patch implement Function Level Reset(FLR) feature following PCI-e spec. And this is the first step. We would add more generic method, like D0/D3, to allow more devices support this function. The patch contains two functions. pcie_reset_function() is the new driver API, and, contains some action to quiesce a device. The other function is a helper: pcie_execute_reset_function() just executes the reset for a particular device function. Current the usage model is in KVM. Function reset is necessary for assigning device to a guest, or moving it between partitions. For Function Level Reset(FLR), please refer to PCI Express spec chapter 6.6.2.

Multi-protocol adapters support different port types. Each consumer of mlx4_core queries for supported port types; in particular mlx4_ib can no longer assume that all physical ports belong to it. Port type is configured through a sysfs interface. When the type of a port is changed, all mlx4 interfaces are unregistered, and then registered again with the new port types.

2008-10-22mfd: twl4030 IRQ handling updateDavid Brownell
- Move it into a separate file; clean and streamline it - Restructure the init code for reuse during secondary dispatch - Support both levels (primary, secondary) of IRQ dispatch - Use a workqueue for irq mask/unmask and trigger configuration Code for two subchips currently share that secondary handler code. One is the power subchip; its IRQs are now handled by this core, courtesy of this patch. The other is the GPIO module, which will be supported through a later patch. There are also minor changes to the header file, mostly related to GPIO support; nothing yet in mainline cares about those. A few references to OMAP-specific symbols are disabled; when they can all be removed, the TWL4030 support ceases being OMAP-specific.

2008-10-22core_param() for genuinely core kernel parametersRusty Russell
There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys. Yet it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename). So, introduce a "core_param". The parameter gets no prefix, but appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg). I thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than "kernel". And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die a horrible death. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-10-22param: Fix duplicate module prefixesRusty Russell
Instead of insisting each new module_param sysfs entry is unique, handle the case where it already exists (for builtin modules). The current code assumes that all identical prefixes are together in the section: true for normal uses, but not necessarily so if someone overrides MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX. More importantly, it's not true with the new "core_param()" code which uses "kernel" as a prefix. This simplifies the caller for the builtin case, at a slight loss of efficiency (we do the lookup every time to see if the directory exists).

2008-10-22module: check kernel param length at compile time, not runtimeRusty Russell
The kparam code tries to handle over-length parameter prefixes at runtime. Not only would I bet this has never been tested, it's not clear that truncating names is a good idea either. So let's check at compile time. We need to move the #define to moduleparam.h to do this, though. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
