2008-07-22class: rename "devices" to "class_devices" in internal class structureGreg Kroah-Hartman
This renames the struct class "devices" field to be "class_devices" to make things easier when struct bus_type and struct class merge in the future. It also makes grepping for fields easier as well. Based on an idea from Kay. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-07-22class: move driver core specific parts to a private structureGreg Kroah-Hartman

2008-07-22Driver Core: add ability for class_find_device to start in middle of listGreg Kroah-Hartman
This mirrors the functionality that driver_find_device has as well. We add a start variable, and all callers of the function are fixed up at the same time. The block layer will be using this new functionality in a follow-on patch. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2008-07-22sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minorDan Williams
Why?: There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that /sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc. What are the alternatives?: 1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this seems counter productive. 2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited environment like an initramfs. 3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

2008-07-10firmware: Add CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL option.David Woodhouse
This will control whether we build firmware into the kernel image for _every_ driver which we convert to request_firmware(), to avoid a proliferation of 'CONFIG_XXX_FIRMWARE' options for each one. Default to 'y' for now, which is the wrong thing to do but people seem to be insisting on it and refusing to even review patches until it's done.

2008-07-10firmware: allow firmware files to be built into kernel imageDavid Woodhouse
Some drivers have their own hacks to bypass the kernel's firmware loader and build their firmware into the kernel; this renders those unnecessary. Other drivers don't use the firmware loader at all, because they always want the firmware to be available. This allows them to start using the firmware loader. A third set of drivers already use the firmware loader, but can't be used without help from userspace, which sometimes requires an initrd. This allows them to work in a static kernel.

2008-07-08x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4Mike Travis
* Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU". This is used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed before there are per_cpu areas allocated. ["Early" in respect to per_cpu variables is "earlier than the per_cpu areas have been setup".] This patchset adds these new macros: DEFINE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name, _initvalue) EXPORT_EARLY_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(_name) DECLARE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name) early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) early_per_cpu_map(_name, _idx) early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early map and pointer. It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map elements to "_initvalue". The early_* macros provide access to the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early pointer. This pointer is initialized to point to the early map but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup. After that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable. The early_per_cpu() macro is not very efficient but does show how to access the variable if you have a function that can be called both "early" and "late". It tests the early ptr to be NULL, and if not then it's still valid. Otherwise, the per_cpu variable is used instead: #define early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) \ (early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) ? \ early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)[_cpu] : \ per_cpu(_name, _cpu)) A better method is to actually check the pointer manually. In the case below, numa_set_node can be called both "early" and "late": void __cpuinit numa_set_node(int cpu, int node) { int *cpu_to_node_map = early_per_cpu_ptr(x86_cpu_to_node_map); if (cpu_to_node_map) cpu_to_node_map[cpu] = node; else per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_node_map, cpu) = node; } * Add a flag "arch_provides_topology_pointers" that indicates pointers to topology cpumask_t maps are available. Otherwise, use the function returning the cpumask_t value. This is useful if cpumask_t set size is very large to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack. * The coverage of CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS has been increased while the non-debug case has been optimized a bit. * Remove an unreferenced compiler warning in drivers/base/topology.c * Clean up #ifdef in setup.c For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.

* Introduce function acpi_pm_device_sleep_wake() for enabling and disabling the system wake-up capability of devices that are power manageable by ACPI. * Introduce function acpi_bus_can_wakeup() allowing other (dependent) subsystems to check if ACPI is able to enable the system wake-up capability of given device. * Introduce callback .sleep_wake() in struct pci_platform_pm_ops and for the ACPI PCI 'driver' make it use acpi_pm_device_sleep_wake(). * Introduce callback .can_wakeup() in struct pci_platform_pm_ops and for the ACPI 'driver' make it use acpi_bus_can_wakeup(). * Move the PME# handlig code out of pci_enable_wake() and split it into two functions, pci_pme_capable() and pci_pme_active(), allowing the caller to check if given device is capable of generating PME# from given power state and to enable/disable the device's PME# functionality, respectively. * Modify pci_enable_wake() to use the new ACPI callbacks and the new PME#-related functions. * Drop the generic .platform_enable_wakeup() callback that is not used any more. * Introduce device_set_wakeup_capable() that will set the power.can_wakeup flag of given device. * Rework PCI device PM initialization so that, if given device is capable of generating wake-up events, either natively through the PME# mechanism, or with the help of the platform, its power.can_wakeup flag is set and its power.should_wakeup flag is unset as appropriate. * Make ACPI set the power.can_wakeup flag for devices found to be wake-up capable by it. * Make the ACPI wake-up code enable/disable GPEs for devices that have the wakeup.flags.prepared flag set (which means that their wake-up power has been enabled).

2008-06-13cpu topology: always define CPU topology informationBen Hutchings
This can result in an empty topology directory in sysfs, and requires in-kernel users to protect all uses with #ifdef - see <http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=120639033904472&w=2>. The documentation of CPU topology specifies what the defaults should be if only partial information is available from the hardware. So we can provide these defaults as a fallback. This patch: - Adds default definitions of the 4 topology macros to <linux/topology.h> - Changes drivers/base/topology.c to use the topology macros unconditionally and to cope with definitions that aren't lvalues - Updates documentation accordingly [ From: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> - fold now-duplicated code - fix layout ] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Cc: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com> Cc: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: John Hawkes <hawkes@sgi.com> Cc: Zhang, Yanmin <yanmin.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-06-12Suspend-related patches for 2.6.27Rafael J. Wysocki
ACPI PM: Add possibility to change suspend sequence There are some systems out there that don't work correctly with our current suspend/hibernation code ordering. Provide a workaround for these systems allowing them to pass 'acpi_sleep=old_ordering' in the kernel command line so that it will use the pre-ACPI 2.0 ("old") suspend code ordering. Unfortunately, this requires us to add a platform hook to the resuming of devices for recovering the platform in case one of the device drivers' .suspend() routines returns error code. Namely, ACPI 1.0 specifies that _PTS should be called before suspending devices, but _WAK still should be called before resuming them in order to undo the changes made by _PTS. However, if there is an error during suspending devices, they are automatically resumed without returning control to the PM core, so the _WAK has to be called from within device_resume() in that cases. The patch also reorders and refactors the ACPI suspend/hibernation code to avoid duplication as far as reasonably possible. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-06-10Introduce new top level suspend and hibernation callbacksRafael J. Wysocki
Introduce 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops' ('ext' meaning 'extended') representing suspend and hibernation operations for bus types, device classes, device types and device drivers. Modify the PM core to use 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops' objects, if defined, instead of the ->suspend(), ->resume(), ->suspend_late(), and ->resume_early() callbacks (the old callbacks will be considered as legacy and gradually phased out). The main purpose of doing this is to separate suspend (aka S2RAM and standby) callbacks from hibernation callbacks in such a way that the new callbacks won't take arguments and the semantics of each of them will be clearly specified. This has been requested for multiple times by many people, including Linus himself, and the reason is that within the current scheme if ->resume() is called, for example, it's difficult to say why it's been called (ie. is it a resume from RAM or from hibernation or a suspend/hibernation failure etc.?). The second purpose is to make the suspend/hibernation callbacks more flexible so that device drivers can handle more than they can within the current scheme. For example, some drivers may need to prevent new children of the device from being registered before their ->suspend() callbacks are executed or they may want to carry out some operations requiring the availability of some other devices, not directly bound via the parent-child relationship, in order to prepare for the execution of ->suspend(), etc. Ultimately, we'd like to stop using the freezing of tasks for suspend and therefore the drivers' suspend/hibernation code will have to take care of the handling of the user space during suspend/hibernation. That, in turn, would be difficult within the current scheme, without the new ->prepare() and ->complete() callbacks. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

This is needed, because there cannot be any guarantee about the time in which a write will complete. By using temporary buffers, from the MM's point if view the page is written back immediately. If the writeout was due to memory pressure, this effectively migrates data from a full zone to a less full zone. This patch adds a new counter (NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP) for the number of pages used as temporary buffers.

2008-04-29firmware loader: printk when requesting firmwareCiaran McCreesh
Before requesting firmware, printk a message saying what we're requesting. This makes it easier to see what's going on, and provides an explanation for the huge silent delay that one would otherwise get after accidentally building ipw2200 as a non-module.

2008-04-26driver core: try parent numa_node at first before using defaultYinghai Lu
in the device_add, we try to use use parent numa_node. need to make sure pci root bus's bridge device numa_node is set. then we could use device->numa_node direclty for all device. and don't need to call pcibus_to_node().
