2008-06-26rfkill: improve documentation for kernel driversHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Improve the documentation of how to use the rfkill class in kernel drivers, based on the doubts that came up in a thread in linux-wireless.

2008-06-26rfkill: rename the rfkill_state states and add block-locked stateHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
The current naming of rfkill_state causes a lot of confusion: not only the "kill" in rfkill suggests negative logic, but also the fact that rfkill cannot turn anything on (it can just force something off or stop forcing something off) is often forgotten. Rename RFKILL_STATE_OFF to RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED (transmitter is blocked and will not operate; state can be changed by a toggle_radio request), and RFKILL_STATE_ON to RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED (transmitter is not blocked, and may operate). Also, add a new third state, RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED (transmitter is blocked and will not operate; state cannot be changed through a toggle_radio request), which is used by drivers to indicate a wireless transmiter was blocked by a hardware rfkill line that accepts no overrides. Keep the old names as #defines, but document them as deprecated. This way, drivers can be converted to the new names *and* verified to actually use rfkill correctly one by one.

2008-06-26rfkill: document rw rfkill switches and clarify input subsystem interactionsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Rework the documentation so as to make sure driver writers understand exactly where the boundaries are for input drivers related to rfkill switches, buttons and keys, and rfkill class drivers. Also fix a small error in the documentation: setting the state of a normal instance of the rfkill class does not affect the state of any other devices (unless they are tied by firmware/hardware somehow).

2008-06-26rfkill: clarify meaning of rfkill statesHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
rfkill really should have been named rfswitch. As it is, one can get confused whether RFKILL_STATE_ON means the KILL switch is on (and therefore, the radio is being *blocked* from operating), or whether it means the RADIO rf output is on. Clearly state that RFKILL_STATE_ON means the radio is *unblocked* from operating (i.e. there is no rf killing going on).

2008-06-18bonding: Allow setting max_bonds to zeroJay Vosburgh
Permit bonding to function rationally if max_bonds is set to zero. This will load the module, but create no master devices (which can be created via sysfs). Requires some change to bond_create_sysfs; currently, the netdev sysfs directory is determined from the first bonding device created, but this is no longer possible. Instead, an interface from net/core is created to create and destroy files in net_class. Based on a patch submitted by Phil Oester <kernel@linuxaces.com>. Modified by Jay Vosburgh to fix the sysfs issue mentioned above and to update the documentation.

2008-06-18bonding: Rework / fix multiple gratuitous ARP supportJay Vosburgh
Support for sending multiple gratuitous ARPs during failovers was added by commit: commit 7893b2491a2d5f716540ac5643d78d37a7f6628b Author: Moni Shoua <monis@voltaire.com> Date: Sat May 17 21:10:12 2008 -0700 bonding: Send more than one gratuitous ARP when slave takes over This change modifies that support to remove duplicated code, add support for ARP monitor (the original only supported miimon), clear the grat ARP counter in bond_close (lest a later "ifconfig up" immediately start spewing ARPs), and add documentation for the module parameter. Also updated driver version to 3.3.0. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-06-14mac80211_hwsim: 802.11 radio simulator for mac80211Jouni Malinen
mac80211_hwsim is a Linux kernel module that can be used to simulate arbitrary number of IEEE 802.11 radios for mac80211 on a single device. It can be used to test most of the mac80211 functionality and user space tools (e.g., hostapd and wpa_supplicant) in a way that matches very closely with the normal case of using real WLAN hardware. From the mac80211 view point, mac80211_hwsim is yet another hardware driver, i.e., no changes to mac80211 are needed to use this testing tool.

2008-06-06doc: document the kernel-doc conventions for kernel hackersPaul Jackson
Provide documentation of the kernel-doc documentation conventions oriented to kernel hackers. Since I figure that there will be more people reading this kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt file who are kernel developers focused on the rest of the kernel, than there will be readers of this file who are documentation developers extracting that embedded kernel-doc documentation, I have taken the liberty of making the new section added here: How to format kernel-doc comments the first section of the kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt file. This first section is intended to introduce, motivate and provide basic usage of the kernel-doc mechanism for kernel hackers developing other portions of the kernel.

2008-05-26ext4: enable barriers by defaultEric Sandeen
I can't think of any valid reason for ext4 to not use barriers when they are available; I believe this is necessary for filesystem integrity in the face of a volatile write cache on storage. An administrator who trusts that the cache is sufficiently battery- backed (and power supplies are sufficiently redundant, etc...) can always turn it back off again.

2008-05-24fuse: fix bdi naming conflictMiklos Szeredi
Fuse allocates a separate bdi for each filesystem, and registers them in sysfs with "MAJOR:MINOR" of sb->s_dev (st_dev). This works fine for anon devices normally used by fuse, but can conflict with an already registered BDI for "fuseblk" filesystems, where sb->s_dev represents a real block device. In particularl this happens if a non-partitioned device is being mounted. Fix by registering with a different name for "fuseblk" filesystems. Thanks to Ioan Ionita for the bug report.

2008-05-22bonding: Add "follow" option to fail_over_macJay Vosburgh
Add a "follow" selection for fail_over_mac. This option causes the MAC address to move from slave to slave as the active slave changes. This is in addition to the existing fail_over_mac option that causes the bond's MAC address to change during failover. This new option is useful for devices that cannot tolerate multiple ports using the same MAC address simultaneously, either because it confuses them or incurs a performance penalty (as is the case with some LPAR-aware multiport devices). Because the MAC of the bond itself does not change, the "follow" option is slightly more reliable during failover and doesn't change the MAC of the bond during operation. This patch requires a previous ARP monitor change to properly handle RTNL during failovers. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
