2006-09-27usbcore: add autosuspend/autoresume infrastructureAlan Stern
This patch (as739) adds the basic infrastructure for USB autosuspend and autoresume. The main features are: PM usage counters added to struct usb_device and struct usb_interface, indicating whether it's okay to autosuspend them or they are currently in use. Flag added to usb_device indicating whether the current suspend/resume operation originated from outside or as an autosuspend/autoresume. Flag added to usb_driver indicating whether the driver supports autosuspend. If not, no device bound to the driver will be autosuspended. Mutex added to usb_device for protecting PM operations. Unlike the device semaphore, the locking rule for the pm_mutex is that you must acquire the locks going _up_ the device tree. New routines handling autosuspend/autoresume requests for interfaces and devices. Suspend and resume requests are propagated up the device tree (but not outside the USB subsystem). work_struct added to usb_device, for carrying out delayed autosuspend requests. Autoresume added (and autosuspend prevented) during probe and disconnect. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-09-27usbcore: store each usb_device's level in the treeAlan Stern
This patch (as778) adds a field to struct usb_device to store the device's level in the USB tree. In itself this number isn't really important. But the overhead is very low, and in a later patch it will be used for preventing bogus warnings from the lockdep checker.

2006-09-27usbcore: trim down usb_bus structureAlan Stern
As part of the ongoing program to flatten out the HCD bus-glue layer, this patch (as771b) eliminates the hcpriv, release, and kref fields from struct usb_bus. hcpriv and release were not being used for anything worthwhile, and kref has been moved into the enclosing usb_hcd structure. Along with those changes, the patch gets rid of usb_bus_get and usb_bus_put, replacing them with usb_get_hcd and usb_put_hcd. The one interesting aspect is that the dev_set_drvdata call was removed from usb_put_hcd, where it clearly doesn't belong. This means the driver private data won't get reset to NULL. It shouldn't cause any problems, since the private data is undefined when no driver is bound. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-09-27usbcore: Add flag for whether a host controller uses DMAAlan Stern
This patch (as770b) introduces a new field to usb_bus: a flag indicating whether or not the host controller uses DMA. This serves to encapsulate the computation. It also means we will have only one spot to update if the DMA API changes. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-09-27USB: remove struct usb_operationsAlan Stern
All of the currently-supported USB host controller drivers use the HCD bus-glue framework. As part of the program for flattening out the glue layer, this patch (as769) removes the usb_operations structure. All function calls now go directly to the HCD routines (slightly renamed to remain within the "usb_" namespace). The patch also removes usb_alloc_bus(), because it's not useful in the HCD framework and it wasn't referenced anywhere.

2006-09-27usbcore: help drivers to change device configsAlan Stern
It's generally a bad idea for USB interface drivers to try to change a device's configuration, and usbcore doesn't provide any way for them to do it.

2006-09-27USB: gmidi: New USB MIDI Gadget class driver.Ben Williamson
This driver is glue between the USB gadget interface and the ALSA MIDI interface. It allows us to appear as a MIDI Streaming device to a host system on the other end of a USB cable. This includes linux/usb/audio.h and linux/usb/midi.h containing definitions from the relevant USB specifications for USB audio and USB MIDI devices. The following changes have been made since the first RFC posting: * Bug fixes to endpoint handling. * Workaround for USB_REQ_SET_CONFIGURATION handling, not understood yet. * Added SND and SND_RAWMIDI dependencies in Kconfig. * Moved usb_audio.h and usb_midi.h to usb/*.h * Added module parameters for ALSA card index and id. * Added module parameters for USB descriptor IDs and strings. * Removed some unneeded stuff inherited from zero.c, more to go. * Provide DECLARE_* macros for the variable-length structs. * Use kmalloc instead of usb_ep_alloc_buffer. * Limit source to 80 columns. * Return actual error code instead of -ENOMEM in a few places.

2006-09-27usbcore: track whether interfaces are suspendedAlan Stern
Currently we rely on intf->dev.power.power_state.event for tracking whether intf is suspended. This is not a reliable technique because that value is owned by the PM core, not by usbcore. This patch (as718b) adds a new flag so that we can accurately tell which interfaces are suspended and which aren't. At first one might think these flags aren't needed, since interfaces will be suspended along with their devices. It turns out there are a couple of intermediate situations where that's not quite true, such as while processing a remote-wakeup request.

2006-09-27usbcore: add usb_device_driver definitionAlan Stern
This patch (as732) adds a usb_device_driver structure, for representing drivers that manage an entire USB device as opposed to just an interface. Support routines like usb_register_device_driver, usb_deregister_device_driver, usb_probe_device, and usb_unbind_device are also added. Unlike an earlier version of this patch, the new code is type-safe. To accomplish this, the existing struct driver embedded in struct usb_driver had to be wrapped in an intermediate wrapper. This enables the core to tell at runtime whether a particular struct driver belongs to a device driver or to an interface driver.

2006-09-27USB: pxa2xx_udc understands GPIO based VBUS sensingDavid Brownell
This updates the PXA 25x UDC board-independent infrastructure for VBUS sensing and the D+ pullup. The original code evolved from rather bizarre support on Intel's "Lubbock" reference hardware, so that on more sensible hardware it doesn't work as well as it could/should. The change is just to teach the UDC driver how to use built-in PXA GPIO pins directly. This reduces the amount of board-specfic object code needed, and enables the use of a VBUS sensing IRQ on boards (like Gumstix) that have one. With VBUS sensing, the UDC is unclocked until a host is actually connected. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2006-09-27[PATCH] pid: Implement transfer_pid and use it to simplify de_threadEric W. Biederman
In de_thread we move pids from one process to another, a rather ugly case. The function transfer_pid makes it clear what we are doing, and makes the action atomic. This is useful we ever want to atomically traverse the process group and session lists, in a rcu safe manner. Even if the atomic properties this change should be a win as transfer_pid should be less code to execute than executing both attach_pid and detach_pid, and this should make de_thread slightly smaller as only a single function call needs to be emitted. The only downside is that the code might be slower to execute as the odds are against transfer_pid being in cache. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-09-27[PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes supportMichael Tokarev
Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and (at least some) EISA-aware modules. The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC): eisa:sTCM5093 and the in-module alias like: eisa:sTCM5093* The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated. There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those maps are obsolete anyway. The rationale for this patch is: a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias support, to unify driver loading b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel (who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;) [akpm@osdl.org: fix the kbuild bit] Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Acked-the-net-bits-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Acked-the-tulip-bit-by: Valerie Henson <val_henson@linux.intel.com> Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@steeleye.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-09-27[PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_privateTheodore Ts'o
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat in the VFS inode structure). This patch: The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union, which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where the union will actually be used.

2006-09-27[PATCH] uml: thread creation tidyingJeff Dike
fork on UML has always somewhat subtle. The underlying cause has been the need to initialize a stack for the new process. The only portable way to initialize a new stack is to set it as the alternate signal stack and take a signal. The signal handler does whatever initialization is needed and jumps back to the original stack, where the fork processing is finished. The basic context switching mechanism is a jmp_buf for each process. You switch to a new process by longjmping to its jmp_buf. Now that UML has its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp, and I can poke around inside a jmp_buf without fear that libc will change the structure, a much simpler mechanism is possible. The jmpbuf can simply be initialized by hand. This eliminates - the need to set up and remove the alternate signal stack sending and handling a signal the signal blocking needed around the stack switching, since there is no stack switching setting up the jmp_buf needed to jump back to the original stack after the new one is set up In addition, since jmp_buf is now defined by UML, and not by libc, it can be embedded in the thread struct. This makes it unnecessary to have it exist on the stack, where it used to be. It also simplifies interfaces, since the switch jmp_buf used to be a void * inside the thread struct, and functions which took it as an argument needed to define a jmp_buf variable and assign it from the void *.

This feature is used by the MSPEC driver and other users, where it is highly undesirable to have a struct page sitting behind the page (for instance if the page is accessed in cached mode via the struct page in parallel to the the driver accessing it uncached, which can result in data corruption on some architectures, such as ia64). This version uses specific NOPFN_{SIGBUS,OOM} return values, rather than expect all negative pfn values would be an error. It also bugs on cow mappings as this would not work with the VM.

2006-09-27[PATCH] Add NUMA_BUILD definition in kernel.h to avoid #ifdef CONFIG_NUMAChristoph Lameter
The NUMA_BUILD constant is always available and will be set to 1 on NUMA_BUILDs. That way checks valid only under CONFIG_NUMA can easily be done without #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA F.e. if (NUMA_BUILD && <numa_condition>) { ... } [akpm: not a thing we'd normally do, but CONFIG_NUMA is special: it is causing ifdef explosion in core kernel, so let's see if this is a comfortable way in whcih to control that] Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-09-27[PATCH] own header file for struct pageHeiko Carstens
This moves the definition of struct page from mm.h to its own header file page-struct.h. This is a prereq to fix SetPageUptodate which is broken on s390: #define SetPageUptodate(_page) do { struct page *__page = (_page); if (!test_and_set_bit(PG_uptodate, &__page->flags)) page_test_and_clear_dirty(_page); } while (0) _page gets used twice in this macro which can cause subtle bugs. Using __page for the page_test_and_clear_dirty call doesn't work since it causes yet another problem with the page_test_and_clear_dirty macro as well. In order to avoid all these problems caused by macros it seems to be a good idea to get rid of them and convert them to static inline functions. Because of header file include order it's necessary to have a seperate header file for the struct page definition.

2006-09-27[PATCH] vm: add per-zone writeout counterAndrew Morton
The VM is supposed to minimise the number of pages which get written off the LRU (for IO scheduling efficiency, and for high reclaim-success rates). But we don't actually have a clear way of showing how true this is. So add `nr_vmscan_write' to /proc/vmstat and /proc/zoneinfo - the number of pages which have been written by the vm scanner in this zone and globally.

2006-09-27[PATCH] Allow an arch to expand node boundariesMel Gorman
Arch-independent zone-sizing determines the size of a node (pgdat->node_spanned_pages) based on the physical memory that was registered by the architecture. However, when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE is set, the architecture expects that the spanned_pages will be much larger and that mem_map will be allocated that is used lated on memory hot-add. This patch allows an architecture that sets CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE to call push_node_boundaries() which will set the node beginning and end to at *least* the requested boundary.

2006-09-27[PATCH] Account for memmap and optionally the kernel image as holesMel Gorman
The x86_64 code accounted for memmap and some portions of the the DMA zone as holes. This was because those areas would never be reclaimed and accounting for them as memory affects min watermarks. This patch will account for the memmap as a memory hole. Architectures may optionally use set_dma_reserve() if they wish to account for a portion of memory in ZONE_DMA as a hole.
