2008-07-25gpio: sysfs interfaceDavid Brownell
This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs. /sys/class/gpio /export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace /unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low /gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO /base ... (r/o) same as N /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1) GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging. Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute. Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file, helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off" requirements that don't merit full kernel support: echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export ... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it, when that GPIO can be used as both input and output. echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport ... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed. Related changes: * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of that device instead of being "virtual" devices. * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have been updated. * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added. * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now flagged appropriately when the chip is registered. Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML. A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this merges to mainline.

2008-07-25kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed lockingSrinivasa D S
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on lot of functions (like on all systemcalls). Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP system compared to present kretprobe implementation. Solution: 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object. 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe lock. 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table.

2008-07-25call_usermodehelper(): increase reliabilityKOSAKI Motohiro
Presently call_usermodehelper_setup() uses GFP_ATOMIC. but it can return NULL _very_ easily. GFP_ATOMIC is needed only when we can't sleep. and, GFP_KERNEL is robust and better. thus, I add gfp_mask argument to call_usermodehelper_setup(). So, its callers pass the gfp_t as below: call_usermodehelper() and call_usermodehelper_keys(): depend on 'wait' argument. call_usermodehelper_pipe(): always GFP_KERNEL because always run under process context. orderly_poweroff(): pass to GFP_ATOMIC because may run under interrupt context.

2008-07-25build kernel/profile.o only when requestedAdrian Bunk
Build kernel/profile.o only if CONFIG_PROFILING is enabled. This makes CONFIG_PROFILING=n kernels smaller. As a bonus, some profile_tick() calls and one branch from schedule() are now eliminated with CONFIG_PROFILING=n (but I doubt these are measurable effects). This patch changes the effects of CONFIG_PROFILING=n, but I don't think having more than two choices would be the better choice. This patch also adds the name of the first parameter to the prototypes of profile_{hits,tick}() since I anyway had to add them for the dummy functions.

2008-07-25endian: Always evaluate arguments.David Miller
Changeset 7fa897b91a3ea0f16c2873b869d7a0eef05acff4 ("ide: trivial sparse annotations") created an IDE bootup regression on big-endian systems. In drivers/ide/ide-iops.c, function ide_fixstring() we now have the loop: for (p = end ; p != s;) be16_to_cpus((u16 *)(p -= 2)); which will never terminate on big-endian because in such a configuration be16_to_cpus() evaluates to "do { } while (0)" Therefore, always evaluate the arguments to nop endian transformation operations.

2008-07-24lcd: add lcd_device to check_fb() entry in lcd_opsBen Dooks
Add the lcd_device being checked to the check_fb entry of lcd_ops. This ensures that any driver using this to check against it's own state can do so, and also makes all the calls in lcd_ops more orthogonal in their arguments.

2008-07-24tridentfb: acceleration constants changeKrzysztof Helt
This patch replaces deprecated constant FB_ACCELF_TEXT with FBINFO_HWACCEL_DISABLED and adds constants for Trident families of accelerators. The FBINFO_HWACCEL_DISABLED is correctly used so noaccel parameter works now.

2008-07-24rtc: BCD codeshrinkDavid Brownell
This updates <linux/bcd.h> to define the key routines as constant functions, which the macros will then call. Newer code can now call bcd2bin() instead of SCREAMING BCD2BIN() TO THE FOUR WINDS. This lets each driver shrink their codespace by using N function calls to a single (global) copy of those routines, instead of N inlined copies of these functions per driver. These routines aren't used in speed-critical code. Almost all callers are in the RTC framework. Typical per-driver savings is near 300 bytes.

Support the Dallas/Maxim DS1305 and DS1306 RTC chips. These use SPI, and support alarms, NVRAM, and a trickle charger for use when their backup power supply is a supercap or rechargeable cell. This basic driver doesn't yet support suspend/resume or wakealarms.

2008-07-24rtc: remove BKL for ioctl()David Brownell
Remove implicit use of BKL in ioctl() from the RTC framework. Instead, the rtc->ops_lock is used. That's the same lock that already protects the RTC operations when they're issued through the exported rtc_*() calls in drivers/rtc/interface.c ... making this a bugfix, not just a cleanup, since both ioctl calls and set_alarm() need to update IRQ enable flags and that implies a common lock (which RTC drivers as a rule do not provide on their own). A new comment at the declaration of "struct rtc_class_ops" summarizes current locking rules. It's not clear to me that the exceptions listed there should exist ... if not, those are pre-existing problems which can be fixed in a patch that doesn't relate to BKL removal.

2008-07-24spi: make spi_board_info.modalias a char arrayGrant Likely
Currently, 'modalias' in the spi_device structure is a 'const char *'. The spi_new_device() function fills in the modalias value from a passed in spi_board_info data block. Since it is a pointer copy, the new spi_device remains dependent on the spi_board_info structure after the new spi_device is registered (no other fields in spi_device directly depend on the spi_board_info structure; all of the other data is copied). This causes a problem when dynamically propulating the list of attached SPI devices. For example, in arch/powerpc, the list of SPI devices can be populated from data in the device tree. With the current code, the device tree adapter must kmalloc() a new spi_board_info structure for each new SPI device it finds in the device tree, and there is no simple mechanism in place for keeping track of these allocations. This patch changes modalias from a 'const char *' to a fixed char array. By copying the modalias string instead of referencing it, the dependency on the spi_board_info structure is eliminated and an outside caller does not need to maintain a separate spi_board_info allocation for each device. If searched through the code to the best of my ability for any references to modalias which may be affected by this change and haven't found anything. It has been tested with the lite5200b platform in arch/powerpc.
