Mostly we just have the usual miscellaneous patches (removal of unnecessary prints, proper dependencies being added to Kconfig, build warning fixes, new device ID, etc. Other than those, the only important new features are the new support for OS Strings which should help Linux Gadget Drivers behave better under MS Windows. Also Babble Recovery implementation for MUSB on AM335x. Lastly, we also have ARCH_QCOM PHY support though phy-msm.

2014-05-14usb: gadget: configfs: OS Extended Properties descriptors supportAndrzej Pietrasiewicz1-0/+21
Add handling of OS Extended Properties descriptors from configfs interface. One kind of "OS Descriptors" are "Extended Properties" descriptors, which need to be specified per interface or per group of interfaces described by an IAD. This patch adds support for creating subdirectories in interface.<n> directory located in the function's directory. Names of subdirectories created become names of properties. Each property contains two attributes: "type" and "data". The type can be a numeric value 1..7 while data is a blob interpreted depending on the type specified. The types are: 1 - unicode string 2 - unicode string with environment variables 3 - binary 4 - little-endian 32-bit 5 - big-endian 32-bit 6 - unicode string with a symbolic link 7 - multiple unicode strings Signed-off-by: Andrzej Pietrasiewicz <andrzej.p@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com>
2014-05-14usb: gadget: configfs: OS Extended Compatibility descriptors supportAndrzej Pietrasiewicz1-0/+13
Add handling of OS Extended Compatibility descriptors from configfs interface. Hosts which expect the "OS Descriptors" ask only for configurations @ index 0, but linux-based USB devices can provide more than one configuration. This patch adds marking one of gadget's configurations the configuration to be reported at index 0, regardless of the actual sequence of usb_add_config invocations used for adding the configurations. The configuration is selected by creating a symbolic link pointing to it from the "os_desc" directory located at the top of a gadget's directory hierarchy. One kind of "OS Descriptors" are "Extended Compatibility Descriptors", which need to be specified per interface. This patch adds interface.<n> directory in function's configfs directory to represent each interface defined by the function. Each interface's directory contains two attributes: "compatible_id" and "sub_compatible_id", which represent 8-byte strings to be reported to the host as the "Compatible ID" and "Sub Compatible ID".

2014-05-14usb: gadget: configfs: OS String supportAndrzej Pietrasiewicz1-0/+11
Add handling of OS String extension from the configfs interface. A directory "os_desc" is added at the top level of a gadget's directories hierarchy. In the "os_desc" directory there are three attributes: "use", "b_vendor_code" and "qw_sign". If "use" contains "0" the OS string is not reported to the host. "b_vendor_code" contains a one-byte value which is used for custom per-device and per-interface requests. "qw_sign" contains an identifier to be reported as the "OS String" proper.

2014-04-15HID: thingm: refactor blink(1) supportVivien Didelot1-8/+0
This patch refactors the way the thingm driver registers a blink(1) LED. In order to make the driver simpler and more standard, drop the "rgb" sysfs attribute and create one instance of LED class per RGB channel. Actually, the name of the LED class instance registered for a blink(1) device is "blink1::ABCD", where ABCD is the last 4 chars of the serial number. The driver now registers 3 instances per RGB chip, named "thingmX:{red,green,blue}:ledY" where X is the hidraw minor number and Y is the RGB chip number (as seen by the firmware). This patch also uses work queues to defer calls with the device, which now allows triggers to work as expected with this LED device. Also remove the brightness structure field and the brightness_get backend, as it is already handled by the LED class, and changes the prefix of functions and structures to thingm_ to match the driver name.

2014-04-15HID: thingm: remove the "fade" sysfs attributeVivien Didelot1-8/+0
As for the "play" sysfs attribute, remove this other non-standard attribute, so the driver only implements what is required to switch the LED on and off.

2014-04-15HID: thingm: remove the "play" sysfs attributeVivien Didelot1-7/+0
When the thingm driver registers an instance of LED class, it creates a "play" sysfs attribute for this blink(1) specific feature. Since this feature is not specific to the RGB chip but to the HID device itself, let's remove this attribute from the LED instance and only implement what is useful to switch on and off the LED. This feature is still easily accessible through hidraw. Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot <vivien.didelot@savoirfairelinux.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

2014-04-07zram: add multi stream functionalitySergey Senozhatsky1-1/+8
Existing zram (zcomp) implementation has only one compression stream (buffer and algorithm private part), so in order to prevent data corruption only one write (compress operation) can use this compression stream, forcing all concurrent write operations to wait for stream lock to be released. This patch changes zcomp to keep a compression streams list of user-defined size (via sysfs device attr). Each write operation still exclusively holds compression stream, the difference is that we can have N write operations (depending on size of streams list) executing in parallel. See TEST section later in commit message for performance data. Introduce struct zcomp_strm_multi and a set of functions to manage zcomp_strm stream access. zcomp_strm_multi has a list of idle zcomp_strm structs, spinlock to protect idle list and wait queue, making it possible to perform parallel compressions. The following set of functions added: - zcomp_strm_multi_find()/zcomp_strm_multi_release() find and release a compression stream, implement required locking - zcomp_strm_multi_create()/zcomp_strm_multi_destroy() create and destroy zcomp_strm_multi zcomp ->strm_find() and ->strm_release() callbacks are set during initialisation to zcomp_strm_multi_find()/zcomp_strm_multi_release() correspondingly. Each time zcomp issues a zcomp_strm_multi_find() call, the following set of operations performed: - spin lock strm_lock - if idle list is not empty, remove zcomp_strm from idle list, spin unlock and return zcomp stream pointer to caller - if idle list is empty, current adds itself to wait queue. it will be awaken by zcomp_strm_multi_release() caller. zcomp_strm_multi_release(): - spin lock strm_lock - add zcomp stream to idle list - spin unlock, wake up sleeper Minchan Kim reported that spinlock-based locking scheme has demonstrated a severe perfomance regression for single compression stream case, comparing to mutex-based (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/18/16) base spinlock mutex ==Initial write ==Initial write ==Initial write records: 5 records: 5 records: 5 avg: 1642424.35 avg: 699610.40 avg: 1655583.71 std: 39890.95(2.43%) std: 232014.19(33.16%) std: 52293.96 max: 1690170.94 max: 1163473.45 max: 1697164.75 min: 1568669.52 min: 573429.88 min: 1553410.23 ==Rewrite ==Rewrite ==Rewrite records: 5 records: 5 records: 5 avg: 1611775.39 avg: 501406.64 avg: 1684419.11 std: 17144.58(1.06%) std: 15354.41(3.06%) std: 18367.42 max: 1641800.95 max: 531356.78 max: 1706445.84 min: 1593515.27 min: 488817.78 min: 1655335.73 When only one compression stream available, mutex with spin on owner tends to perform much better than frequent wait_event()/wake_up(). This is why single stream implemented as a special case with mutex locking. Introduce and document zram device attribute max_comp_streams. This attr shows and stores current zcomp's max number of zcomp streams (max_strm). Extend zcomp's zcomp_create() with `max_strm' parameter. `max_strm' limits the number of zcomp_strm structs in compression backend's idle list (max_comp_streams). max_comp_streams used during initialisation as follows: -- passing to zcomp_create() max_strm equals to 1 will initialise zcomp using single compression stream zcomp_strm_single (mutex-based locking). -- passing to zcomp_create() max_strm greater than 1 will initialise zcomp using multi compression stream zcomp_strm_multi (spinlock-based locking). default max_comp_streams value is 1, meaning that zram with single stream will be initialised. Later patch will introduce configuration knob to change max_comp_streams on already initialised and used zcomp.

In that original location, it was then fixed to support empty port nodes by commit b9db140c1e46 ("[media] v4l: of: Support empty port nodes"), and that commit clashes badly with the dropped "Reduce intendation" commit.

This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge window. I will describe it a bit more further down. There is some additional cpuidle driver work, however I haven't included it in this tree as it depends on some work in tip/timer-core which Thomas accidentally forgot to put in a topic branch. Since I didn't want to carry all of that tip timer stuff in powerpc -next, I setup a separate branch on top of Thomas tree with just that cpuidle driver in it, and Stephen has been carrying that in next separately for a while now. I'll send a separate pull request for it. Additionally, two new pieces in this tree add users for a sysfs API that Tejun and Greg have been deprecating in drivers-core-next. Thankfully Greg reverted the patch that removes the old API so this merge can happen cleanly, but once merged, I will send a patch adjusting our new code to the new API so that Greg can send you the removal patch. Now as for the content of this branch, we have a lot of perf work for power8 new counters including support for our new "nest" counters (also called 24x7) under pHyp (not natively yet). We have new functionality when running under the OPAL firmware (non-virtualized or KVM host), such as access to the firmware error logs and service processor dumps, system parameters and sensors, along with a hwmon driver for the latter. There's also a bunch of bug fixes accross the board, some LE fixes, and a nice set of selftests for validating our various types of copy loops.

2014-03-20f2fs: throttle the memory footprint with a sysfs entryJaegeuk Kim1-0/+6
This patch introduces ram_thresh, a sysfs entry, which controls the memory footprint used by the free nid list and the nat cache. Previously, the free nid list was controlled by MAX_FREE_NIDS, while the nat cache was managed by NM_WOUT_THRESHOLD. However, this approach cannot be applied dynamically according to the system. So, this patch adds ram_thresh that users can specify the threshold, which is in order of 1 / 1024. For example, if the total ram size is 4GB and the value is set to 10 by default, f2fs tries to control the number of free nids and nat caches not to consume over 10 * (4GB / 1024) = 10MB.

2014-03-13Fix: module signature vs tracepoints: add new TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULEMathieu Desnoyers1-0/+1
Users have reported being unable to trace non-signed modules loaded within a kernel supporting module signature. This is caused by tracepoint.c:tracepoint_module_coming() refusing to take into account tracepoints sitting within force-loaded modules (TAINT_FORCED_MODULE). The reason for this check, in the first place, is that a force-loaded module may have a struct module incompatible with the layout expected by the kernel, and can thus cause a kernel crash upon forced load of that module on a kernel with CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS=y. Tracepoints, however, specifically accept TAINT_OOT_MODULE and TAINT_CRAP, since those modules do not lead to the "very likely system crash" issue cited above for force-loaded modules. With kernels having CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y (signed modules), a non-signed module is tainted re-using the TAINT_FORCED_MODULE taint flag. Unfortunately, this means that Tracepoints treat that module as a force-loaded module, and thus silently refuse to consider any tracepoint within this module. Since an unsigned module does not fit within the "very likely system crash" category of tainting, add a new TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE taint flag to specifically address this taint behavior, and accept those modules within Tracepoints. We use the letter 'X' as a taint flag character for a module being loaded that doesn't know how to sign its name (proposed by Steven Rostedt). Also add the missing 'O' entry to trace event show_module_flags() list for the sake of completeness.

2014-03-11of: Make device nodes kobjects so they show up in sysfsGrant Likely1-0/+28
Device tree nodes are already treated as objects, and we already want to expose them to userspace which is done using the /proc filesystem today. Right now the kernel has to do a lot of work to keep the /proc view in sync with the in-kernel representation. If device_nodes are switched to be kobjects then the device tree code can be a whole lot simpler. It also turns out that switching to using /sysfs from /proc results in smaller code and data size, and the userspace ABI won't change if /proc/device-tree symlinks to /sys/firmware/devicetree/base. v7: Add missing sysfs_bin_attr_init() v6: Add __of_add_property() early init fixes from Pantelis v5: Rename firmware/ofw to firmware/devicetree Fix updating property values in sysfs v4: Fixed build error on Powerpc Fixed handling of dynamic nodes on powerpc v3: Fixed handling of duplicate attribute and child node names v2: switch to using sysfs bin_attributes which solve the problem of reporting incorrect property size.
