2005-05-23[MTD] Add reboot notifier to Intel NOR flash driverNicolas Pitre
to make sure the flash is in array mode whenever we're about to reboot. This is especially useful to allow "soft" reboot to work which consists of branching back into the bootloader. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2005-05-23[JFFS2] Use a single config option for write buffer supportAndrew Victor
This patch replaces the current CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_NAND, CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_NOR_ECC and CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_DATAFLASH with a single configuration option - CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER. The only functional change of this patch is that the slower div/mod calculations for SECTOR_ADDR(), PAGE_DIV() and PAGE_MOD() are now always used when CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER is enabled.

2005-05-23[JFFS2] Add support for JFFS2-on-Dataflash devices.Andrew Victor
For Dataflash, can_mark_obsolete = false and the NAND write buffering code (wbuf.c) is used. Since the DataFlash chip will automatically erase pages when writing, the cleanmarkers are not needed - so cleanmarker_oob = false and cleanmarker_size = 0 DataFlash page-sizes are not a power of two (they're multiples of 528 bytes). The SECTOR_ADDR macro (added in the previous core patch) is replaced with a (slower) div/mod version if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_DATAFLASH is selected.

2005-05-23[MTD] User interface to Protection RegistersNicolas Pitre
This is implemented using a ioctl to switch the MTD char device into one of the different OTP "modes", at which point read/write/seek can operate on the selected OTP area. Also some extra ioctls to query for size and lock protection segments or groups. Some example user space utilities are provided.

2005-05-17[PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_stateDavid Brownell
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that: - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive; - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing; - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type; - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts; - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace. This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

2005-05-17[PATCH] x86_64: Collected NMI watchdog fixes.Andi Kleen
Collected NMI watchdog fixes. - Fix call of check_nmi_watchdog - Remove earlier move of check_nmi_watchdog to later. It does not fix the race it was supposed to fix fully. - Remove unused P6 definitions - Add support for performance counter based watchdog on P4 systems. This allows to run it only once per second, which saves some CPU time. Previously it would run at 1000Hz, which was too much. Code ported from i386 Make this the default on Intel systems. - Use check_nmi_watchdog with local APIC based nmi - Fix race in touch_nmi_watchdog - Fix bug that caused incorrect performance counters to be programmed in a few cases on K8. - Remove useless check for local APIC - Use local_t and per_cpu variables for per CPU data. - Keep other CPUs busy during check_nmi_watchdog to make sure they really tick when in lapic mode. - Only check CPUs that are actually online. - Various other fixes. - Fix fallback path when MSRs are unimplemented Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-17[PATCH] x86_64: Add pmtimer supportAndi Kleen
There are unfortunately more and more multi processor Opteron systems which don't have HPET timer support in the southbridge. This covers in particular Nvidia and VIA chipsets. They also don't guarantee that the TSCs are synchronized between CPUs; and especially with MP powernow the systems are nearly unusable because the time gets very inconsistent between CPUs. The timer code for x86-64 was originally written under the assumption that we could fall back to the HPET timer on such systems. But this doesn't work there. Another alternative is to use the ACPI PM timer as primary time source. This patch does that. The kernel only uses PM timer when there is no other choice because it has some disadvantages. Ported over from i386. It should be faster than the i386 version because I dropped the "read three times" workaround, but is still considerable slower than HPET and also does not work together with vsyscalls which have to be disabled.

2005-05-05[PATCH] DAC960: add support for Mylex AcceleRAID 4/5/600Christoph Hellwig
This patch adds support for a new class of DAC960 controllers. It's based on the GPLed idac320 driver from IBM for Linux 2.4.18. That driver is a fork of the 2.4.18 version of DAC960 that adds support for this new type of controllers (internally called "GEM Series"), that differ from other DAC960 V2 firmware controllers only in the register offsets and removes support for all others. This patch instead integrates support for these controllers into the DAC960 driver. Thanks to Anders Norrbring for pointing me to the idac320 driver and testing this patch. No Signed-Off: line because all code is either copy & pasted from IBM's idac320 driver or support for other controllers in the 2.6 DAC960 driver. Note: the really odd formating matches the rest of the DAC960 driver. Cc: Dave Olien <dmo@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
