2008-07-21sysdev: Add utility functions for simple int/ulong variable sysdev attributesAndi Kleen
This adds a new sysdev_ext_attribute that stores a pointer to the variable it manages and some utility functions/macro to easily use them. Previously all users wrote custom macros to generate show/store functions for each variable, with this it is possible to avoid that in many cases.

2008-07-21sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store functionAndi Kleen
This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

2008-07-21driver core: Suppress sysfs warnings for device_rename().Cornelia Huck
driver core: Suppress sysfs warnings for device_rename(). Renaming network devices to an already existing name is not something we want sysfs to print a scary warning for, since the callers can deal with this correctly. So let's introduce sysfs_create_link_nowarn() which gets rid of the common warning. Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-07-21debugfs: Implement debugfs_remove_recursive()Haavard Skinnemoen
debugfs_remove_recursive() will remove a dentry and all its children. Drivers can use this to zap their whole debugfs tree so that they don't need to keep track of every single debugfs dentry they created. It may fail to remove the whole tree in certain cases: sh-3.2# rmmod atmel-mci < /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/ios/clock mmc0: card b368 removed atmel_mci atmel_mci.0: Lost dma0chan1, falling back to PIO sh-3.2# ls /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/ ios But I'm not sure if that case can be handled in any sane manner.

2008-07-21UIO: Add write function to allow irq maskingHans J. Koch
Sometimes it is necessary to enable/disable the interrupt of a UIO device from the userspace part of the driver. With this patch, the UIO kernel driver can implement an "irqcontrol()" function that does this. Userspace can write an s32 value to /dev/uioX (usually 0 or 1 to turn the irq off or on). The UIO core will then call the driver's irqcontrol function. Signed-off-by: Hans J.

2008-07-21sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minorDan Williams
Why?: There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that /sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc. What are the alternatives?: 1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this seems counter productive. 2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited environment like an initramfs. 3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

2008-07-21USB: Force unbinding of drivers lacking reset_resume or other methodsAlan Stern
This patch (as1024) takes care of a FIXME issue: Drivers that don't have the necessary suspend, resume, reset_resume, pre_reset, or post_reset methods will be unbound and their interface reprobed when one of the unsupported events occurs. This is made slightly more difficult by the fact that bind operations won't work during a system sleep transition. So instead the code has to defer the operation until the transition ends.

2008-07-21USB: fix usb_reset_device and usb_reset_composite_device(take 3)Ming Lei
This patch renames the existing usb_reset_device in hub.c to usb_reset_and_verify_device and renames the existing usb_reset_composite_device to usb_reset_device. Also the new usb_reset_and_verify_device does't need to be EXPORTED . The idea of the patch is that external interface driver should warn the other interfaces' driver of the same device before and after reseting the usb device. One interface driver shoud call _old_ usb_reset_composite_device instead of _old_ usb_reset_device since it can't assume the device contains only one interface. The _old_ usb_reset_composite_device is safe for single interface device also. we rename the two functions to make the change easily. This patch is under guideline from Alan Stern.

2008-07-21usb gadget: composite gadget coreDavid Brownell
Add <linux/usb/composite.h> interfaces for composite gadget drivers, and basic implementation support behind it: - struct usb_function ... groups one or more interfaces into a function managed as one unit within a configuration, to which it's added by usb_add_function(). - struct usb_configuration ... groups one or more such functions into a configuration managed as one unit by a driver, to which it's added by usb_add_config(). These operate at either high or full/low speeds and at a given bMaxPower. - struct usb_composite_driver ... groups one or more such configurations into a gadget driver, which may be registered or unregistered. - struct usb_composite_dev ... a usb_composite_driver manages this; it wraps the usb_gadget exposed by the controller driver. This also includes some basic kerneldoc. How to use it (the short version): provide a usb_composite_driver with a bind() that calls usb_add_config() for each of the needed configurations. The configurations in turn have bind() calls, which will usb_add_function() for each function required. Each function's bind() allocates resources needed to perform its tasks, like endpoints; sometimes configurations will allocate resources too. Separate patches will convert most gadget drivers to this infrastructure. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-07-21usb gadget: descriptor copying supportDavid Brownell
Define three new descriptor manipulation utilities, for use when setting up functions that may have multiple instances: usb_copy_descriptors() to copy a vector of descriptors usb_free_descriptors() to free the copy usb_find_endpoint() to find a copied version These will be used as follows. Functions will continue to have static tables of descriptors they update, now used as __initdata templates. When a function creates a new instance, it patches those tables with relevant interface and string IDs, plus endpoint assignments. Then it copies those morphed descriptors, associates the copies with the new function instance, and records the endpoint descriptors to use when activating the endpoints. When initialization is done, only the copies remain in memory. The copies are freed on driver removal. This ensures that each instance has descriptors which hold the right instance-specific data. Two instances in the same configuration will obviously never share the same interface IDs or use the same endpoints. Instances in different configurations won't do so either, which means this is slightly less memory-efficient in some cases. This also includes a bugfix to the epautoconf code that shows up with this usage model. It must replace the previous endpoint number when updating the template descriptors, not just mask in a few more bits.

2008-07-21USB: implement "soft" unbindingAlan Stern
This patch (as1091) changes the way usbcore handles interface unbinding. If the interface's driver supports "soft" unbinding (a new flag in the driver structure) then in-flight URBs are not cancelled and endpoints are not disabled. Instead the driver is allowed to continue communicating with the device (although of course it should stop before its disconnect routine returns). The purpose of this change is to allow drivers to do a clean shutdown when they get unbound from a device that is still plugged in. Killing all the URBs and disabling the endpoints before calling the driver's disconnect method doesn't give the driver any control over what happens, and it can leave devices in indeterminate states. For example, when usb-storage unbinds it doesn't want to stop while in the middle of transmitting a SCSI command. The soft_unbind flag is added because in the past, a number of drivers have experienced problems related to ongoing I/O after their disconnect routine returned. Hence "soft" unbinding is made available only to drivers that claim to support it. The patch also replaces "interface_to_usbdev(intf)" with "udev" in a couple of places, a minor simplification.

2008-07-21netfilter: accounting rework: ct_extend + 64bit counters (v4)Krzysztof Piotr Oledzki
Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime. This patch: - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure, - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(), - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n), - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs, - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit, - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter, - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT), - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling. If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend. Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

2008-07-21dm: introduce merge_bvec_fnMilan Broz
Introduce a bvec merge function for device mapper devices for dynamic size restrictions. This code ensures the requested biovec lies within a single target and then calls a target-specific function to check against any constraints imposed by underlying devices.

-tip testing found this build bug: arch/x86/kvm/built-in.o:(.text.fixup+0x1): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32 against `.text' arch/x86/kvm/built-in.o:(.text.fixup+0xb): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32 against `.text' arch/x86/kvm/built-in.o:(.text.fixup+0x15): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32 against `.text' arch/x86/kvm/built-in.o:(.text.fixup+0x1f): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32 against `.text' arch/x86/kvm/built-in.o:(.text.fixup+0x29): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32 against `.text' Introduced by commit 4ecac3fd. The problem is that 'push' will default to 32-bit, which is not wide enough as a fixup address. (and which would crash on any real fixup event even if it was wide enough) Introduce KVM_EX_PUSH to get the proper address push width on 64-bit too. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-07-21md: Protect access to mddev->disks list using RCUNeilBrown
All modifications and most access to the mddev->disks list are made under the reconfig_mutex lock. However there are three places where the list is walked without any locking. If a reconfig happens at this time, havoc (and oops) can ensue. So use RCU to protect these accesses: - wrap them in rcu_read_{,un}lock() - use list_for_each_entry_rcu - add to the list with list_add_rcu - delete from the list with list_del_rcu - delay the 'free' with call_rcu rather than schedule_work Note that export_rdev did a list_del_init on this list. In almost all cases the entry was not in the list anymore so it was a no-op and so safe. It is no longer safe as after list_del_rcu we may not touch the list_head. An audit shows that export_rdev is called: - after unbind_rdev_from_array, in which case the delete has already been done, - after bind_rdev_to_array fails, in which case the delete isn't needed. - before the device has been put on a list at all (e.g. in add_new_disk where reading the superblock fails). - and in autorun devices after a failure when the device is on a different list. So remove the list_del_init call from export_rdev, and add it back immediately before the called to export_rdev for that last case. Note also that ->same_set is sometimes used for lists other than mddev->list (e.g. candidates). In these cases rcu is not needed. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2008-07-21md: only count actual openers as access which prevent a 'stop'NeilBrown
Open isn't the only thing that increments ->active. e.g. reading /proc/mdstat will increment it briefly. So to avoid false positives in testing for concurrent access, introduce a new counter that counts just the number of times the md device it open. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
