2011-03-23adfs: add hexadecimal filetype suffix optionStuart Swales
ADFS (FileCore) storage complies with the RISC OS filetype specification (12 bits of file type information is stored in the file load address, rather than using a file extension). The existing driver largely ignores this information and does not present it to the end user. It is desirable that stored filetypes be made visible to the end user to facilitate a precise copy of data and metadata from a hard disc (or image thereof) into a RISC OS emulator (such as RPCEmu) or to a network share which can be accessed by real Acorn systems. This patch implements a per-mount filetype suffix option (use -o ftsuffix=1) to present any filetype as a ,xyz hexadecimal suffix on each file. This type suffix is compatible with that used by RISC OS systems that access network servers using NFS client software and by RPCemu's host filing system.

2011-03-23console: allow to retain boot console via boot option keep_bootconFabio M. Di Nitto
On some architectures, the boot process involves de-registering the boot console (early boot), initialize drivers and then re-register the console. This mechanism introduces a window in which no printk can happen on the console and messages are buffered and then printed once the new console is available. If a kernel crashes during this window, all it's left on the boot console is "console [foo] enabled, bootconsole disabled" making debug of the crash rather 'interesting'. By adding "keep_bootcon" option, do not unregister the boot console, that will allow to printk everything that is happening up to the crash. The option is clearly meant only for debugging purposes as it introduces lots of duplicated info printed on console, but will make bug report from users easier as it doesn't require a kernel build just to figure out where we crash.

2011-03-23kernel/watchdog.c: allow hardlockup to panic by defaultDon Zickus
When a cpu is considered stuck, instead of limping along and just printing a warning, it is sometimes preferred to just panic, let kdump capture the vmcore and reboot. This gets the machine back into a stable state quickly while saving the info that got it into a stuck state to begin with. Add a Kconfig option to allow users to set the hardlockup to panic by default. Also add in a 'nmi_watchdog=nopanic' to override this.

2011-03-22[media] v4l: v4l2_subdev userspace format APILaurent Pinchart
Add a userspace API to get, set and enumerate the media format on a subdev pad. The format at the output of a subdev usually depends on the format at its input(s). The try format operation is thus not suitable for probing format at individual pads, as it can't modify the device state and thus can't remember the format tried at the input to compute the output format. To fix the problem, pass an extra argument to the get/set format operations to select the 'try' or 'active' format. The try format is used when probing the subdev. Setting the try format must not change the device configuration but can store data for later reuse. Data storage is provided at the file-handle level so applications probing the subdev concurently won't interfere with each other. The active format is used when configuring the subdev. It's identical to the format handled by the usual get/set operations.

2011-03-22[media] media: Pipelines and media streamsLaurent Pinchart
Drivers often need to associate pipeline objects to entities, and to take stream state into account when configuring entities and links. The pipeline API helps drivers manage that information. When starting streaming, drivers call media_entity_pipeline_start(). The function marks all entities connected to the given entity through enabled links, either directly or indirectly, as streaming. Similarly, when stopping the stream, drivers call media_entity_pipeline_stop(). The media_entity_pipeline_start() function takes a pointer to a media pipeline and stores it in every entity in the graph. Drivers should embed the media_pipeline structure in higher-level pipeline structures and can then access the pipeline through the media_entity structure. Link configuration will fail with -EBUSY by default if either end of the link is a streaming entity, unless the link is marked with the MEDIA_LNK_FL_DYNAMIC flag.

2011-03-22[media] media: Entities, pads and linksLaurent Pinchart
As video hardware pipelines become increasingly complex and configurable, the current hardware description through v4l2 subdevices reaches its limits. In addition to enumerating and configuring subdevices, video camera drivers need a way to discover and modify at runtime how those subdevices are connected. This is done through new elements called entities, pads and links. An entity is a basic media hardware building block. It can correspond to a large variety of logical blocks such as physical hardware devices (CMOS sensor for instance), logical hardware devices (a building block in a System-on-Chip image processing pipeline), DMA channels or physical connectors. A pad is a connection endpoint through which an entity can interact with other entities. Data (not restricted to video) produced by an entity flows from the entity's output to one or more entity inputs. Pads should not be confused with physical pins at chip boundaries. A link is a point-to-point oriented connection between two pads, either on the same entity or on different entities. Data flows from a source pad to a sink pad. Links are stored in the source entity. To make backwards graph walk faster, a copy of all links is also stored in the sink entity. The copy is known as a backlink and is only used to help graph traversal. The entity API is made of three functions: - media_entity_init() initializes an entity. The caller must provide an array of pads as well as an estimated number of links. The links array is allocated dynamically and will be reallocated if it grows beyond the initial estimate. - media_entity_cleanup() frees resources allocated for an entity. It must be called during the cleanup phase after unregistering the entity and before freeing it. - media_entity_create_link() creates a link between two entities. An entry in the link array of each entity is allocated and stores pointers to source and sink pads. When a media device is unregistered, all its entities are unregistered automatically. The code is based on Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> initial work.

2011-03-22[media] media: Media deviceLaurent Pinchart
The media_device structure abstracts functions common to all kind of media devices (v4l2, dvb, alsa, ...). It manages media entities and offers a userspace API to discover and configure the media device internal topology.

2011-03-22ACPI, APEI, Add PCIe AER error information printing supportHuang Ying
The AER error information printing support is implemented in drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aer_print.c. So some string constants, functions and macros definitions can be re-used without being exported. The original PCIe AER error information printing function is not re-used directly because the overall format is quite different. And changing the original printing format may make some original users' scripts broken.
