2015-04-03hv: run non-blocking message handlers in the dispatch taskletDexuan Cui
A work item in vmbus_connection.work_queue can sleep, waiting for a new host message (usually it is some kind of "completion" message). Currently the new message will be handled in the same workqueue, but since work items in the workqueue is serialized, we actually have no chance to handle the new message if the current work item is sleeping -- as as result, the current work item will hang forever. K. Y. has posted the below fix to resolve the issue: Drivers: hv: vmbus: Perform device register in the per-channel work element Actually we can simplify the fix by directly running non-blocking message handlers in the dispatch tasklet (inspired by K. Y.). This patch is the fundamental change. The following 2 patches will simplify the message offering and rescind-offering handling a lot. Signed-off-by: Dexuan Cui <decui@microsoft.com> Cc: K. Y.

2015-04-03coresight: moving to new "hwtracing" directoryMathieu Poirier
Keeping drivers related to HW tracing on ARM, i.e coresight, under "drivers/coresight" doesn't make sense when other architectures start rolling out technologies of the same nature. As such creating a new "drivers/hwtracing" directory where all drivers of the same kind can reside, reducing namespace pollution under "drivers/".

2015-04-03char: xillybus: Don't return -EFAULT on user-triggered flushEli Billauer
The API allows the application to flush a host-to-FPGA stream by calling write() with the data count set to zero. Before this patch, copy_from_user() was called with a non-zero byte count, which possibly made it attempt to read from unmapped user memory. Such attempts caused the driver to return -EFAULT instead of 0, even though the desired operation went through fine. This patch ensures the driver returns 0 on a successful flush.

2015-04-03misc: pass miscdevice through file's private_dataTom Van Braeckel
Make the miscdevice accessible through the file's private_data. Previously, this was done only when an open() file operation had been registered. If no custom open() file operation was defined, private_data was set to NULL. This subtle quirk was confusing, to the point where kernel code registered *empty* file open operations to have private_data point to the misc device structure and avoid duplicating that logic. And it could easily lead to bugs, where the addition or removal of a custom open() file operation surprisingly changes the initial value of a file's private_data structure. To resolve this, we now place the miscdevice in the file's private_data member unconditionally when open() is called.

This GPIO pin updates the USB cable states. 2. Rename the filename of extcon core driver and add missing locking mechanism - Rename the previous extcon-class driver.c as extcon.c because '-class' postfix is not necessary word. - extcon core driver (extcon.c) used the raw_notifier_chain. It must be protected by locking mechanism to avoid the list changing while extcon_update_state() is executed. 3.

The primary function of this driver is to configure parameters, such as timings, for external memory devices using data supplied in the device tree. Devices connected to the NEMC are represented in the DT as children of the NEMC node, the driver uses optional properties specified in these child nodes to configure the parameters of each bank.

2015-03-25Drivers: hv: hv_balloon: don't lose memory when onlining order is not naturalVitaly Kuznetsov
Memory blocks can be onlined in random order. When this order is not natural some memory pages are not onlined because of the redundant check in hv_online_page(). Here is a real world scenario: 1) Host tries to hot-add the following (process_hot_add): pg_start=rg_start=0x48000, pfn_cnt=111616, rg_size=262144 2) This results in adding 4 memory blocks: [ 109.057866] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x48000000-0x4fffffff] [ 114.102698] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x50000000-0x57ffffff] [ 119.168039] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x58000000-0x5fffffff] [ 124.233053] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x60000000-0x67ffffff] The last one is incomplete but we have special has->covered_end_pfn counter to avoid onlining non-backed frames and hv_bring_pgs_online() function to bring them online later on. 3) Now we have 4 offline memory blocks: /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9-12 $ for f in /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/state; do echo $f `cat $f`; done | grep -v onlin /sys/devices/system/memory/memory10/state offline /sys/devices/system/memory/memory11/state offline /sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state offline /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/state offline 4) We bring them online in non-natural order: $grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 966348 kB $echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 1019596 kB $echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory11/state && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 1150668 kB $echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/state && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 1150668 kB As you can see memory9 block gives us zero additional memory. We can also observe a huge discrepancy between host- and guest-reported memory sizes. The root cause of the issue is the redundant pg >= covered_start_pfn check (and covered_start_pfn advancing) in hv_online_page(). When upper memory block in being onlined before the lower one (memory12 and memory11 in the above case) we advance the covered_start_pfn pointer and all memory9 pages do not pass the check. If the assumption that host always gives us requests in sequential order and pg_start always equals rg_start when the first request for the new HA region is received (that's the case in my testing) is correct than we can get rid of covered_start_pfn and pg >= start_pfn check in hv_online_page() is sufficient.

As of 240ddd495a9 (vmw_vmci: Convert driver to use get_user_pages_fast()) we no longer user get_user_pages(), thus update the warning. Also convert to pr_debug, which is a more appropriate level of logging. Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2015-03-24checkkconfigsymbols.py: fix sorted outputValentin Rothberg
Commit b1a3f243485f ("checkkconfigsymbols.py: make it Git aware") mistakenly removed to print undefined Kconfig symbols in alphabetical order. Furthermore, the script does not print anything anymore when the entire tree is checked (i.e., when no commit is specified). This patch restores the sorted output and adds the missing print for the default case. Additionally, the file lists are now sorted as well which (a) makes it easier to read and (b) makes the output deterministic.
