2009-09-21trivial: doc: document missing value 2 for randomize-va-spaceHorst Schirmeier
The documentation for /proc/sys/kernel/* does not mention the possible value 2 for randomize-va-space yet. While being there, doing some reformatting, fixing grammar problems and clarifying the correlations between randomize-va-space, kernel parameter "norandmaps" and the CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK option.

2009-09-19tracing, perf: Convert the power tracer into an event tracerArjan van de Ven
This patch converts the existing power tracer into an event tracer, so that power events (C states and frequency changes) can be tracked via "perf". This also removes the perl script that was used to demo the tracer; its functionality is being replaced entirely with timechart.

2009-09-17MIPS: Loongson: Add a machtype kernel command line argumentWu Zhangjin
The difference between some loongson-based machines is very small, so, if there is no necessary to add new kernel config options to cope with this difference, it will be better to share the same kernel image file between them, benefit from this, the linux distribution developers only have a need to compile the kernel one time. This machtype kernel command line argument will be used later to share the same kernel image file between two different machines(menglong & yeeloong) made by lemote.

2009-09-17hwmon: WM831x PMIC hardware monitoring driverMark Brown
This driver adds support for the hardware monitoring features of the WM831x PMICs to the hwmon API. Monitoring is provided for the system voltages supported natively by the WM831x, the chip temperature, the battery temperature and the auxiliary inputs of the WM831x. Currently no alarms are supported, though digital comparators on the WM831x devices would allow these to be provided. Since the auxiliary and battery temperature input scaling depends on the system configuration the value is reported as a voltage to userspace.

2009-09-15sparc: Kill PROM console driver.David S. Miller
Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it in any situation. Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary. If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500) so there are no excuses. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-09-15uio: add generic driver for PCI 2.3 devicesMichael S. Tsirkin
This adds a generic uio driver that can bind to any PCI device. First user will be virtualization where a qemu userspace process needs to give guest OS access to the device. Interrupts are handled using the Interrupt Disable bit in the PCI command register and Interrupt Status bit in the PCI status register. All devices compliant to PCI 2.3 (circa 2002) and all compliant PCI Express devices should support these bits. Driver detects this support, and won't bind to devices which do not support the Interrupt Disable Bit in the command register. It's expected that more features of interest to virtualization will be added to this driver in the future. Possibilities are: mmap for device resources, MSI/MSI-X, eventfd (to interface with kvm), iommu. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2009-09-14ftrace: document function and function graph implementationMike Frysinger
While implementing function tracer and function tracer graph support, I found the exact arch implementation details to be a bit lacking (and my x86 foo ain't great). So after pounding out support for the Blackfin arch, start documenting the requirements/details.
