2009-04-19ide-atapi: kill unused fields and callbacksTejun Heo
Impact: remove fields and code paths which are no longer necessary Now that ide-tape uses standard mechanisms to transfer data, special case handling for bh handling can be dropped from ide-atapi. Drop the followings. * pc->cur_pos, b_count, bh and b_data * drive->pc_update_buffers() and pc_io_buffers(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-04-19ide-cd,atapi: use bio for internal commandsTejun Heo
Impact: unify request data buffer handling rq->data is used mostly to pass kernel buffer through request queue without using bio. There are only a couple of places which still do this in kernel and converting to bio isn't difficult. This patch converts ide-cd and atapi to use bio instead of rq->data for request sense and internal pc commands. With previous change to unify sense request handling, this is relatively easily achieved by adding blk_rq_map_kern() during sense_rq prep and PC issue. If blk_rq_map_kern() fails for sense, the error is deferred till sense issue and aborts the failed command which triggered the sense. Note that this is a slim possibility as sense prep is done on each command issue, so for the above condition to actually trigger, all preps since the last sense issue till the issue of the request which would require a sense should fail. * do_request functions might sleep now. This should be okay as ide request_fn - do_ide_request() - is invoked only from make_request and plug work. Make sure this is the case by adding might_sleep() to do_ide_request(). * Functions which access the read sense data before the sense request is complete now should access bio_data(sense_rq->bio) as the sense buffer might have been copied during blk_rq_map_kern(). * ide-tape updated to map sg. * cdrom_do_block_pc() now doesn't have to deal with REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC special case. Simplified. * tp_ops->output/input_data path dropped from ide_pc_intr(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-04-19ide-atapi: convert ide-{floppy,tape} to using preallocated sense bufferBorislav Petkov
Since we're issuing REQ_TYPE_SENSE now we need to allow those types of rqs in the ->do_request callbacks. As a future improvement, sense_len assignment might be unified across all ATAPI devices. Borislav to check with specs and test. As a result, get rid of ide_queue_pc_head() and drive->request_sense_rq. tj: * Init request sense ide_atapi_pc from sense request. In the longer timer, it would probably better to fold ide_create_request_sense_cmd() into its only current user - ide_floppy_get_format_progress(). * ide_retry_pc() no longer takes @disk.

2009-04-19ide: add helpers for preparing sense requestsBorislav Petkov
This is in preparation of removing the queueing of a sense request out of the IRQ handler path. Use struct request_sense as a general sense buffer for all ATAPI devices ide-{floppy,tape,cd}. tj: * blk_get_request(__GFP_WAIT) can't be called from do_request() as it can cause deadlock. Converted to use inline struct request and blk_rq_init(). * Added xfer / cdb len selection depending on device type. * All sense prep logics folded into ide_prep_sense() which never fails. * hwif->rq clearing and sense_rq used handling moved into ide_queue_sense_rq(). * blk_rq_map_kern() conversion is moved to later patch.

2009-04-17USB: add reset endpoint operationsDavid Vrabel
Wireless USB endpoint state has a sequence number and a current window and not just a single toggle bit. So allow HCDs to provide a endpoint_reset method and call this or clear the software toggles as required (after a clear halt, set configuration etc.). usb_settoggle() and friends are then HCD internal and are moved into core/hcd.h and all device drivers call usb_reset_endpoint() instead. If the device endpoint state has been reset (with a clear halt) but the host endpoint state has not then subsequent data transfers will not complete. The device will only work again after it is reset or disconnected. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@csr.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2009-04-17Get rid of final remnants of include/asm-$(ARCH)Linus Torvalds
This renames include/asm-h8300/timer.h into arch/h8300/include/asm: it was left over just because that file had been created in the -mm tree before the whole h8300 header subdirectory had been moved, and then got merged in the old location afterwards. (See commits e0b0f9e4ead2468f84c26332ec42b118e76af572: "h8300: update timer handler - new files" and 758db3f2118703a1e36374dae5d58bed963e7e0d: "[h8300] move include/asm-h8300 to arch/h8300/include/asm" for details). This also removes a left-over .gitignore file in include/asm-arm that became stale when the ARM header files were moved (which happened in multiple commits, just see "git log -- include/asm-arm" for details).

2009-04-16dynamic debug: resurrect old pr_debug() semantics as pr_devel()Michael Ellerman
pr_debug() used to produce zero code unless DEBUG was #defined. This is now no longer the case in practice[1]. There are places where it's useful to have debugging printks, but we don't want them to generate any code in production kernels. So add a new macro, pr_devel(), for _devel_opment, to provide the old semantics, ie. if the programmer doesn't explicitly enable debugging, no code is produced. [1]: You can turn CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG off, but it's enabled in at least one distro kernel, so it's not really a solution.

2009-04-16Driver Core: early platform driverMagnus Damm
V3 of the early platform driver implementation. Platform drivers are great for embedded platforms because we can separate driver configuration from the actual driver. So base addresses, interrupts and other configuration can be kept with the processor or board code, and the platform driver can be reused by many different platforms. For early devices we have nothing today. For instance, to configure early timers and early serial ports we cannot use platform devices. This because the setup order during boot. Timers are needed before the platform driver core code is available. The same goes for early printk support. Early in this case means before initcalls. These early drivers today have their configuration either hard coded or they receive it using some special configuration method. This is working quite well, but if we want to support both regular kernel modules and early devices then we need to have two ways of configuring the same driver. A single way would be better. The early platform driver patch is basically a set of functions that allow drivers to register themselves and architecture code to locate them and probe. Registration happens through early_param(). The time for the probe is decided by the architecture code. See Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt for more details.

2009-04-16Add block_write_full_page_endio for passing endio handlerChris Mason
block_write_full_page doesn't allow the caller to control what happens when the IO is over. This adds a new call named block_write_full_page_endio so the buffer head end_io handler can be provided by the caller. This will be used by the ext3 data=guarded mode to do i_size updates in a workqueue based end_io handler. end_buffer_async_write is also exported so it can be called to do the dirty work of managing page writeback for the higher level end_io handler.

2009-04-15splice: add helpers for locking pipe inodeMiklos Szeredi
There are lots of sequences like this, especially in splice code: if (pipe->inode) mutex_lock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex); /* do something */ if (pipe->inode) mutex_unlock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex); so introduce helpers which do the conditional locking and unlocking. Also replace the inode_double_lock() call with a pipe_double_lock() helper to avoid spreading the use of this functionality beyond the pipe code.

2009-04-14rcu: Make hierarchical RCU less IPI-happyPaul E. McKenney
This patch fixes a hierarchical-RCU performance bug located by Anton Blanchard. The problem stems from a misguided attempt to provide a work-around for jiffies-counter failure. This work-around uses a per-CPU n_rcu_pending counter, which is incremented on each call to rcu_pending(), which in turn is called from each scheduling-clock interrupt. Each CPU then treats this counter as a surrogate for the jiffies counter, so that if the jiffies counter fails to advance, the per-CPU n_rcu_pending counter will cause RCU to invoke force_quiescent_state(), which in turn will (among other things) send resched IPIs to CPUs that have thus far failed to pass through an RCU quiescent state. Unfortunately, each CPU resets only its own counter after sending a batch of IPIs. This means that the other CPUs will also (needlessly) send -another- round of IPIs, for a full N-squared set of IPIs in the worst case every three scheduler-clock ticks until the grace period finally ends. It is not reasonable for a given CPU to reset each and every n_rcu_pending for all the other CPUs, so this patch instead simply disables the jiffies-counter "training wheels", thus eliminating the excessive IPIs. Note that the jiffies-counter IPIs do not have this problem due to the fact that the jiffies counter is global, so that the CPU sending the IPIs can easily reset things, thus preventing the other CPUs from sending redundant IPIs. Note also that the n_rcu_pending counter remains, as it will continue to be used for tracing. It may also see use to update the jiffies counter, should an appropriate kick-the-jiffies-counter API appear.

Impact: build fix for Sparc and s390 Stephen Rothwell reported that the Sparc build broke: In file included from kernel/panic.c:12: include/linux/debug_locks.h: In function '__debug_locks_off': include/linux/debug_locks.h:15: error: implicit declaration of function 'xchg' due to: 9eeba61: lockdep: warn about lockdep disabling after kernel taint There is some inconsistency between architectures about where exactly xchg() is defined. The traditional place is in system.h but the more logical point for it is in atomic.h - where most architectures (especially new ones) have it defined. These architecture also still offer it via system.h. Some, such as Sparc or s390 only have it in asm/system.h and not available via asm/atomic.h at all. Use the widest set of headers in debug_locks.h and also include asm/system.h. Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: "David S.

2009-04-13asm-generic/siginfo.h: update NSIGTRAP definitionAndi Kleen
Impact: (nearly) trivial The patch commit da654b74bda14c45a7d98c731bf3c1a43b6b74e2 Author: Srinivasa Ds <srinivasa@in.ibm.com> Date: Tue Sep 23 15:23:52 2008 +0530 signals: demultiplexing SIGTRAP signal forgot to update the NSIGTRAP define in asm-generic/siginfo.h to the new number of sigtrap subcodes. Nothing in the tree seems to use it, but presumably something in user space might. So update it.

2009-04-13hwmon: sht15 humidity sensor driverJonathan Cameron
Data sheet at: http://www.sensirion.ch/en/pdf/product_information/Datasheet-humidity-sensor-SHT1x.pdf These sensors communicate over a 2 wire bus running a device specific protocol. The complexity of the driver is mainly due to handling the substantial delays between requesting a reading and the device pulling the data line low to indicate that the data is available. This is handled by an interrupt that is disabled under all other conditions. I wasn't terribly clear on the best way to handle this, so comments on that aspect would be particularly welcome! Interpretation of the temperature depends on knowing the supply voltage. If configured in a board config as a regulator consumer this is obtained from the regulator subsystem. If not it should be provided in the platform data. I've placed this driver in the hwmon subsystem as it is definitely a device that may be used for hardware monitoring and with it's relatively slow response times (up to 120 millisecs to get a reading) a caching strategy certainly seems to make sense!

2009-04-13fbdev: fix color component field length documentationMichal Januszewski
The documentation about the meaning of the color component bitfield lengths in pseudocolor modes is inconsistent. Fix it, so that it indicates the correct interpretation everywhere, i.e. that 1 << length is the number of palette entries.

2009-04-13phylib: Allow early-out in phy_changeAnatolij Gustschin
Marvell 88E1121R Dual PHY device can be hardware-configured to use shared interrupt pin for both PHY ports. For such PHY configurations using shared PHY interrupt phy_interrupt() handler will also schedule a work for PHY port which didn't cause an interrupt. This patch adds a possibility for PHY drivers to provide did_interrupt() function which reports if the PHY (or a PHY port in a multi-PHY device) generated an interrupt. This function is called in phy_change() as phy_change() shouldn't proceed if it is invoked for a PHY which didn't cause an interrupt. So check for interrupt originator in phy_change() to allow early-out. Signed-off-by: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
