2009-04-21spi: documentation: emphasise spi_master.setup() semanticsGravatar David Brownell 1-1/+6
This is a doc-only patch which I hope will reduce the number of spi_master controller driver patches starting out with a common implementation bug. (As in: almost every spi_master driver I see starts out with its version of this bug. Sigh.) It just re-emphasizes that the setup() method may be called for one device while a transfer is active on another ... which means that most driver implementations shouldn't touch any registers.

2009-04-19PM/Suspend: Introduce two new platform callbacks to avoid breakageGravatar Rafael J. Wysocki 1-10/+26
Commit 900af0d973856d6feb6fc088c2d0d3fde57707d3 (PM: Change suspend code ordering) changed the ordering of suspend code in such a way that the platform .prepare() callback is now executed after the device drivers' late suspend callbacks have run. Unfortunately, this turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power control devices during the .prepare() callback. For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks, .prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line, respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for ACPI suspend. Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish() platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by device drivers and right before executing their regular resume methods, respectively). It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used by ACPI platforms. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2009-04-17USB: add reset endpoint operationsGravatar David Vrabel 1-8/+1
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)Gravatar Linus Torvalds 2-27/+0
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).

When pr_fmt() was added to the pr_debug() code, we added it not only to the dynamic_pr_debug() function, but also to the dynamic_dev_dbg() funciton.

2009-04-16dynamic debug: resurrect old pr_debug() semantics as pr_devel()Gravatar Michael Ellerman 1-0/+9
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 driverGravatar Magnus Damm 2-0/+43
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.

2009-04-16netfilter: nf_nat: add support for persistent mappingsGravatar Patrick McHardy 1-0/+1
The removal of the SAME target accidentally removed one feature that is not available from the normal NAT targets so far, having multi-range mappings that use the same mapping for each connection from a single client. The current behaviour is to choose the address from the range based on source and destination IP, which breaks when communicating with sites having multiple addresses that require all connections to originate from the same IP address. Introduce a IP_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT option that controls whether the destination address is taken into account for selecting addresses. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12954 Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

block_write_full_page doesn't allow the caller to control what happens when the IO is over.

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.

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. This patch is just a cleanup, and should cause no behavioral changes. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-04-15splice: remove generic_file_splice_write_nolock()Gravatar Miklos Szeredi 1-2/+0
Remove the now unused generic_file_splice_write_nolock() function. It's conceptually broken anyway, because splice may need to wait for pipe events so holding locks across the whole operation is wrong.

2009-04-15ocfs2: fix i_mutex locking in ocfs2_splice_to_file()Gravatar Miklos Szeredi 1-0/+2
Rearrange locking of i_mutex on destination and call to ocfs2_rw_lock() so locks are only held while buffers are copied with the pipe_to_file() actor, and not while waiting for more data on the pipe. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-04-15splice: split up __splice_from_pipe()Gravatar Miklos Szeredi 1-0/+10
Split up __splice_from_pipe() into four helper functions: splice_from_pipe_begin() splice_from_pipe_next() splice_from_pipe_feed() splice_from_pipe_end() splice_from_pipe_next() will wait (if necessary) for more buffers to be added to the pipe. splice_from_pipe_feed() will feed the buffers to the supplied actor and return when there's no more data available (or if all of the requested data has been copied). This is necessary so that implementations can do locking around the non-waiting splice_from_pipe_feed(). This patch should not cause any change in behavior.

2009-04-15[ARM] pxa: merge AC97 platform data structuresGravatar Mark Brown 1-15/+0
Currently there are two possible platform datas for the PXA AC97 driver: one supported by the generic AC97 driver only which provides callbacks to allow board-specific configuration at stream startup and teardown, and another for pxa2xx-ac97-lib which allows configuration of the reset GPIO for PXA2xx CPUs. Obviously this won't actually work when using the generic AC97 driver since the drivers will attempt to parse the platform data in both formats. Fix this by merging the two structures.
