2008-12-25crypto: aes - Precompute tablesHerbert Xu
The tables used by the various AES algorithms are currently computed at run-time. This has created an init ordering problem because some AES algorithms may be registered before the tables have been initialised. This patch gets around this whole thing by precomputing the tables.

2008-12-25libcrc32c: Add crc32c_le macroHerbert Xu
The bnx2x driver actually uses the crc32c_le name so this patch restores the crc32c_le symbol through a macro. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25libcrc32c: Move implementation to crypto crc32cHerbert Xu
This patch swaps the role of libcrc32c and crc32c. Previously the implementation was in libcrc32c and crc32c was a wrapper. Now the code is in crc32c and libcrc32c just calls the crypto layer. The reason for the change is to tap into the algorithm selection capability of the crypto API so that optimised implementations such as the one utilising Intel's CRC32C instruction can be used where available.

2008-12-25crypto: hash - Export shash through hashHerbert Xu
This patch allows shash algorithms to be used through the old hash interface. This is a transitional measure so we can convert the underlying algorithms to shash before converting the users across. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: hash - Add import/export interfaceHerbert Xu
It is often useful to save the partial state of a hash function so that it can be used as a base for two or more computations. The most prominent example is HMAC where all hashes start from a base determined by the key. Having an import/export interface means that we only have to compute that base once rather than for each message. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: hash - Export shash through ahashHerbert Xu
This patch allows shash algorithms to be used through the ahash interface. This is required before we can convert digest algorithms over to shash. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: hash - Add shash interfaceHerbert Xu
The shash interface replaces the current synchronous hash interface. It improves over hash in two ways. Firstly shash is reentrant, meaning that the same tfm may be used by two threads simultaneously as all hashing state is stored in a local descriptor. The other enhancement is that shash no longer takes scatter list entries. This is because shash is specifically designed for synchronous algorithms and as such scatter lists are unnecessary. All existing hash users will be converted to shash once the algorithms have been completely converted. There is also a new finup function that combines update with final. This will be extended to ahash once the algorithm conversion is done. This is also the first time that an algorithm type has their own registration function. Existing algorithm types will be converted to this way in due course. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: api - Rebirth of crypto_alloc_tfmHerbert Xu
This patch reintroduces a completely revamped crypto_alloc_tfm. The biggest change is that we now take two crypto_type objects when allocating a tfm, a frontend and a backend. In fact this simply formalises what we've been doing behind the API's back. For example, as it stands crypto_alloc_ahash may use an actual ahash algorithm or a crypto_hash algorithm. Putting this in the API allows us to do this much more cleanly. The existing types will be converted across gradually. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: api - Move type exit function into crypto_tfmHerbert Xu
The type exit function needs to undo any allocations done by the type init function. However, the type init function may differ depending on the upper-level type of the transform (e.g., a crypto_blkcipher instantiated as a crypto_ablkcipher). So we need to move the exit function out of the lower-level structure and into crypto_tfm itself. As it stands this is a no-op since nobody uses exit functions at all. However, all cases where a lower-level type is instantiated as a different upper-level type (such as blkcipher as ablkcipher) will be converted such that they allocate the underlying transform and use that instead of casting (e.g., crypto_ablkcipher casted into crypto_blkcipher). That will need to use a different exit function depending on the upper-level type. This patch also allows the type init/exit functions to call (or not) cra_init/cra_exit instead of always calling them from the top level. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2008-12-22video: sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io supportMagnus Damm
This patch adds sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io support for SYS panels. The LCDC hardware block managed by the sh_mobile_lcdcfb driver supports RGB or SYS panel configurations. SYS panels come with an external display controller that is resposible for refreshing the actual LCD panel. RGB panels are controlled directly by the LCDC and they need to be refreshed by the LCDC hardware. In the case of SYS panels we can save some power by configuring the LCDC hardware block in one-shot mode. In this one-shot mode panel refresh is managed by software. This works well together with deferred io since it allows us to stop clocks for most of the time and only enable clocks when we actually want to trigger an update. When there is no fbdev activity the clocks are kept stopped which allows us to deep sleep. The refresh rate in deferred io mode is set using platform data. The same platform data can also be used to disable deferred io mode. As with other deferred io frame buffers user space code should use fsync() on the frame buffer device to trigger an update.

acpi_early_init() was changed to over-write the cmdline param, making it really inconvenient to set debug flags at boot-time. Also, This sets the default level to "info", which is what all the ACPI drivers use. So to enable messages from drivers, you only have to supply the "layer" (a.k.a. "component"). For non-"info" ACPI core and ACPI interpreter messages, you have to supply both level and layer masks, as before.

This patch fixes an inconsistency in nfnetlink_conntrack.h that I introduced myself. The problem is that CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC is missing from enum ctattr_natseq. This inconsistency may lead to problems in the message parsing in userspace (if the message contains the CTA_NAT_SEQ_* attributes, of course). This patch breaks backward compatibility, however, the only known client of this code is libnetfilter_conntrack which indeed crashes because it assumes the existence of CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC to do the parsing.

2008-12-10revert "percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()"Andrew Morton
Revert commit 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354 Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Date: Thu Oct 9 12:50:59 2008 -0400 percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set() Before this patch we had the following: percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before returning. After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set() functionality. Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set() functionality was racy and wrong. It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus, without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from those other CPUS. This patch reverts 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354. This means that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but percpu_counter_sum() does not. Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well. Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics. Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read() will return a close value. After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result. If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after e8ced39d5e8911c662d4d69a342b9d053eaaac4e was merged, and which depends upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

2008-12-09netpoll: fix race on poll_list resulting in garbage entryNeil Horman
A few months back a race was discused between the netpoll napi service path, and the fast path through net_rx_action: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2007/10/16/345470 A patch was submitted for that bug, but I think we missed a case. Consider the following scenario: INITIAL STATE CPU0 has one napi_struct A on its poll_list CPU1 is calling netpoll_send_skb and needs to call poll_napi on the same napi_struct A that CPU0 has on its list CPU0 CPU1 net_rx_action poll_napi !list_empty (returns true) locks poll_lock for A poll_one_napi napi->poll netif_rx_complete __napi_complete (removes A from poll_list) list_entry(list->next) In the above scenario, net_rx_action assumes that the per-cpu poll_list is exclusive to that cpu. netpoll of course violates that, and because the netpoll path can dequeue from the poll list, its possible for CPU0 to detect a non-empty list at the top of the while loop in net_rx_action, but have it become empty by the time it calls list_entry. Since the poll_list isn't surrounded by any other structure, the returned data from that list_entry call in this situation is garbage, and any number of crashes can result based on what exactly that garbage is. Given that its not fasible for performance reasons to place exclusive locks arround each cpus poll list to provide that mutal exclusion, I think the best solution is modify the netpoll path in such a way that we continue to guarantee that the poll_list for a cpu is in fact exclusive to that cpu. To do this I've implemented the patch below. It adds an additional bit to the state field in the napi_struct. When executing napi->poll from the netpoll_path, this bit will be set. When a driver calls netif_rx_complete, if that bit is set, it will not remove the napi_struct from the poll_list. That work will be saved for the next iteration of net_rx_action. I've tested this and it seems to work well. About the biggest drawback I can see to it is the fact that it might result in an extra loop through net_rx_action in the event that the device is actually contended for (i.e. the netpoll path actually preforms all the needed work no the device, and the call to net_rx_action winds up doing nothing, except removing the napi_struct from the poll_list. However I think this is probably a small price to pay, given that the alternative is a crash. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-12-09ASoC: Add platform registration APIMark Brown
ASoC v2 allows platform drivers to instantiate independantly of the overall ASoC card. This API allows drivers to notify the core when they are registered. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com>
2008-12-09ASoC: Add DAI registration APIMark Brown
Add API calls to register and unregister DAIs with the core. Currently these APIs are ineffective. Since multiple DAIs for a given device are a common case bulk variants are provided. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com>
2008-12-09ASoC: Add card registration APIMark Brown
ASoC v2 allows cards, codecs and platforms to instantiate separately, with the overall ASoC device only being instantiated once all the required components have registered. As part of backporting Liam's work introduce an initial version of the card registration functions. At present these do nothing active and are internal only, they will be exposed to machine drivers after further backporting. Adding this now allows the datastructures used for dynamic card instantiation to be built up gradually. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com>
