It does this by providing an interface to transcendent memory, which is memory/storage that is not otherwise visible to and/or directly addressable by the kernel. Instead of being discarded, hooks in the reclaim code "put" clean pages to cleancache. Filesystems that "opt-in" may "get" pages from cleancache that were previously put, but pages in cleancache are "ephemeral", meaning they may disappear at any time. And the size of cleancache is entirely dynamic and unknowable to the kernel. Filesystems currently supported by this patchset include ext3, ext4, btrfs, and ocfs2. Other filesystems (especially those built entirely on VFS) should be easy to add, but should first be thoroughly tested to ensure coherency. Details and a FAQ are provided in Documentation/vm/cleancache.txt This first patch of eight in this cleancache series only adds two new documentation files.

From a programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean. In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct initialization. Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e). Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to 80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO used for accessing cores on the bus.

This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various limitations over time, but all are included herein. This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM strings of the FADT ACPI table.

* | | | | PM / Hibernate: Add sysfs knob to control size of memory for driversRafael J. Wysocki2011-05-17
| |/ / / |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Martin reports that on his system hibernation occasionally fails due to the lack of memory, because the radeon driver apparently allocates too much of it during the device freeze stage. It turns out that the amount of memory allocated by radeon during hibernation (and presumably during system suspend too) depends on the utilization of the GPU (e.g. hibernating while there are two KDE 4 sessions with compositing enabled causes radeon to allocate more memory than for one KDE 4 session). In principle it should be possible to use image_size to make the memory preallocation mechanism free enough memory for the radeon driver, but in practice it is not easy to guess the right value because of the way the preallocation code uses image_size. For this reason, it seems reasonable to allow users to control the amount of memory reserved for driver allocations made after the hibernate preallocation, which currently is constant and amounts to 1 MB. Introduce a new sysfs file, /sys/power/reserved_size, whose value will be used as the amount of memory to reserve for the post-preallocation reservations made by device drivers, in bytes. For backwards compatibility, set its default (and initial) value to the currently used number (1 MB).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New Asus notebooks are using a WMI device similar to the one used in Eee PCs. Since we don't want to load eeepc-wmi module on Asus notebooks, and we want to keep the eeepc-wmi module for backward compatibility, this patch introduce a new module, named asus-wmi, that will be used by eeepc-wmi and the new Asus Notebook WMI Driver. eeepc-wmi's input device strings (device name and phys) are kept, but rfkill and led names are changed (s/eeepc/asus/). This should not break anything since rfkill are used by type or index, not by name, and the eeepc::touchpad led wasn't working correctly before 2.6.39 anyway.

This user data area provides higher performance/reliability, at the expense of using twice the effective media space due to the area using SLC. The MMC driver now reads out the enhanced area offset and size and adds them to the device attributes in sysfs. Enabling the enhanced area can only be done once, and should be done in manufacturing. To use this feature, bit ERASE_GRP_DEF should also be set. Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-mmc describes the two new attributes.
