2010-05-21i2c-nforce2: Remove redundant error messages on ACPI conflictChase Douglas
The ACPI subsystem strictly checks for resource conflicts. When there's a conflict, it outputs a warning message with all the details needed to properly diagnose the underlying issue. However, the i2c-nforce2 driver also prints its own message. Not only is the message redundant, it is at the KERN_ERR level, which overrides some bootsplash screens for no good reason.

2010-05-21i2c-gpio: Move initialization code to subsys_initcall()Marek Szyprowski
GPIO driven I2C bus can be used for controlling the PMIC chip. The example of such configuration is Samsung Aquila board. This patch moves initialization code to subsys_initcall() to ensure that the i2c bus is available early so the regulators can be quickly probed and available for other devices on their probe() call. Such solution has been proposed by Mark Brown to fix the problem of the regulators not beeing available on the peripheral device probe(): http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-March/011971.html Cc: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com> Reviewed-by: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Acked-by: Wolfram Sang <w.sang@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

2010-05-21at24: Fall back to byte or word reads if neededJean Delvare
Increase the portability of the at24 driver by letting it read from EEPROM chips connected to cheap SMBus controllers that support neither raw I2C messages nor even I2C block reads. All SMBus controllers should support either word reads or byte reads, so read support becomes universal, much like with the legacy "eeprom" driver. Obviously, this only works with EEPROM chips up to AT24C16, that use 8-bit offset addressing. 16-bit offset addressing is almost impossible to support on SMBus controllers. I did not add universal support for writes, as I had no immediate need for this, but it could be added later if needed (with the same performance issue as byte and word reads have, of course.)

2010-05-21net: Expose all network devices in a namespaces in sysfsEric W. Biederman
This reverts commit aaf8cdc34ddba08122f02217d9d684e2f9f5d575. Drivers like the ipw2100 call device_create_group when they are initialized and device_remove_group when they are shutdown. Moving them between namespaces deletes their sysfs groups early. In particular the following call chain results. netdev_unregister_kobject -> device_del -> kobject_del -> sysfs_remove_dir With sysfs_remove_dir recursively deleting all of it's subdirectories, and nothing adding them back. Ouch! Therefore we need to call something that ultimate calls sysfs_mv_dir as that sysfs function can move sysfs directories between namespaces without deleting their subdirectories or their contents. Allowing us to avoid placing extra boiler plate into every driver that does something interesting with sysfs. Currently the function that provides that capability is device_rename. That is the code works without nasty side effects as originally written. So remove the misguided fix for moving devices between namespaces. The bug in the kobject layer that inspired it has now been recognized and fixed. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Acked-by: David S.

2010-05-21net/sysfs: Fix the bitrot in network device kobject namespace supportEric W. Biederman
I had a couple of stupid bugs in: netns: Teach network device kobjects which namespace they are in. - I duplicated the Kconfig for the NET_NS - The build was broken when sysfs was not compiled in The sysfs breakage is because after I moved the operations for the sysfs to the kobject layer, to make things cleaner I forgot to move the ifdefs. Opps. I'm not quite certain how I got introduced a second NET_NS Kconfig, but it was probably a 3 way merge somewhere along the way that did not notice that the NET_NS Kconfig option had mvoed and thout that was a bug. It probably slipped in because it used to be the sysfs patches were the first patches in my network namespace patches. Some things just don't go like you would expect. Neither of these bugs actually affect anything in the common case but they should be fixed. Thanks to Serge for noticing they were present. Reported-by: Serge E.

The problem. Network devices show up in sysfs and with the network namespace active multiple devices with the same name can show up in the same directory, ouch! To avoid that problem and allow existing applications in network namespaces to see the same interface that is currently presented in sysfs, this patch enables the tagging directory support in sysfs. By using the network namespace pointers as tags to separate out the the sysfs directory entries we ensure that we don't have conflicts in the directories and applications only see a limited set of the network devices.

2010-05-21pci: check caps from sysfs file open to read device dependent config spaceChris Wright
The PCI config space bin_attr read handler has a hardcoded CAP_SYS_ADMIN check to verify privileges before allowing a user to read device dependent config space. This is meant to protect from an unprivileged user potentially locking up the box. When assigning a PCI device directly to a guest with libvirt and KVM, the sysfs config space file is chown'd to the unprivileged user that the KVM guest will run as. The guest needs to have full access to the device's config space since it's responsible for driving the device. However, despite being the owner of the sysfs file, the CAP_SYS_ADMIN check will not allow read access beyond the config header. With this patch we check privileges against the capabilities used when openining the sysfs file. The allows a privileged process to open the file and hand it to an unprivileged process, and the unprivileged process can still read all of the config space.

In Al's latest vfs tree the code is reworked and S_BIAS has been removed. It turns out that checking to see if a super block is in the middle of an unmount in sysfs_exit_ns is unnecessary because we remove the super_block from the s_supers/s_instances list before struct sysfs_super_info pointed to by sb->s_fs_info is freed. For now just delete the unnecessary check to see if a superblock is in the middle of an unmount, it isn't necessary with or without Al's changes and it just causes a needless conflict.

2010-05-21sysfs: Implement sysfs_delete_linkEric W. Biederman
When removing a symlink sysfs_remove_link does not provide enough information to figure out which tagged directory the symlink falls in. So I need sysfs_delete_link which is passed the target of the symlink to delete. sysfs_rename_link is updated to call sysfs_delete_link instead of sysfs_remove_link as we have all of the information necessary and the callers are interesting. Both of these functions now have enough information to find a symlink in a tagged directory. The only restriction is that they must be called before the target kobject is renamed or deleted. If they are called later I loose track of which tag the target kobject was marked with and can no longer find the old symlink to remove it. This patch was split from an earlier patch.

2010-05-21sysfs: Implement sysfs tagged directory support.Eric W. Biederman
The problem. When implementing a network namespace I need to be able to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this is a problem for /sys/class/net/*, /sys/devices/virtual/net/*, and potentially a few other directories of the form /sys/ ... /net/*. What this patch does is to add an additional tag field to the sysfs dirent structure. For directories that should show different contents depending on the context such as /sys/class/net/, and /sys/devices/virtual/net/ this tag field is used to specify the context in which those directories should be visible. Effectively this is the same as creating multiple distinct directories with the same name but internally to sysfs the result is nicer. I am calling the concept of a single directory that looks like multiple directories all at the same path in the filesystem tagged directories. For the networking namespace the set of directories whose contents I need to filter with tags can depend on the presence or absence of hotplug hardware or which modules are currently loaded. Which means I need a simple race free way to setup those directories as tagged. To achieve a reace free design all tagged directories are created and managed by sysfs itself. Users of this interface: - define a type in the sysfs_tag_type enumeration. - call sysfs_register_ns_types with the type and it's operations - sysfs_exit_ns when an individual tag is no longer valid - Implement mount_ns() which returns the ns of the calling process so we can attach it to a sysfs superblock. - Implement ktype.namespace() which returns the ns of a syfs kobject. Everything else is left up to sysfs and the driver layer. For the network namespace mount_ns and namespace() are essentially one line functions, and look to remain that. Tags are currently represented a const void * pointers as that is both generic, prevides enough information for equality comparisons, and is trivial to create for current users, as it is just the existing namespace pointer. The work needed in sysfs is more extensive. At each directory or symlink creating I need to check if the directory it is being created in is a tagged directory and if so generate the appropriate tag to place on the sysfs_dirent. Likewise at each symlink or directory removal I need to check if the sysfs directory it is being removed from is a tagged directory and if so figure out which tag goes along with the name I am deleting. Currently only directories which hold kobjects, and symlinks are supported. There is not enough information in the current file attribute interfaces to give us anything to discriminate on which makes it useless, and there are no potential users which makes it an uninteresting problem to solve.

2010-05-21generate "change" uevent for loop deviceDavid Zeuthen
Recent udev versions probe loop devices for filesystems meaning that the /dev/disk hierarchy may contain useful entries such as $ ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/Fedora-12-x86_64-Live lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Mar 11 13:41 /dev/disk/by-label/Fedora-12-x86_64-Live -> ../../loop0 Unfortunately, no "change" uevent is generated when the loop device is detached so the symlink persists. Additionally, no "change" uevent is guaranteed to be generated when attaching an fd or changing capacity. For example, user space could open the loop device O_RDONLY (in fact, recent util-linux-ng does this) so udev's OPTIONS+="watch" machinery may not trigger the "change" uevent. This patch ensures that the "change" uevent is generated in all of these cases. As a result, the /dev/disk hierarchy works as expected for loop devices.

2010-05-21firmware class: export nowait to userspaceJohannes Berg
When we use request_firmware_nowait(), userspace may not want to answer negatively right away when for example it is answering from an initrd only, but with request_firmware() it has to in order to not delay the kernel boot until the request times out. This allows userspace to differentiate between the two in order to be able to reply negatively to async requests only when all filesystems have been mounted and have been checked for the requested firmware file.

2010-05-21lockdep: Add novalidate class for dev->mutex conversionPeter Zijlstra
The conversion of device->sem to device->mutex resulted in lockdep warnings. Create a novalidate class for now until the driver folks come up with separate classes. That way we have at least the basic mutex debugging coverage. Add a checkpatch error so the usage is reserved for device->mutex.

2010-05-21drivers/base: Convert dev->sem to mutexThomas Gleixner
The semaphore is semantically a mutex. Convert it to a real mutex and fix up a few places where code was relying on semaphore.h to be included by device.h, as well as the users of the trylock function, as that value is now reversed.

2010-05-21platform_bus: allow custom extensions to system PM methodsKevin Hilman
When runtime PM for platform_bus was added, it allowed for platforms to customize the runtime PM methods since they are defined as weak symbols. This patch allows platforms to also extend the system PM methods with custom hooks so runtime PM and system PM extensions can be managed together by custom platform-specific code.
