Allow printk_time to be enabled or disabled at boot time. Previously it
could be enabled only, but not disabled.
Change printk_time from an int to a bool since that's what it is. Make its
logical (exposed) name just be "time" (was "printk_time").
Note: Changes kernel boot option syntax from "time" to "printk.time=value".
Since printk_time is declared as a module_param, it can also be
changed at run-time by modifying
/sys/module/printk/parameters/time
to a value of 1/Y/y to enabled it or 0/N/n to disable it.
Since printk_time is declared as a module_param, its value can also
be set at boot-time by using
linux printk.time=<bool>
If the "time" boot option is used, print a message that it is deprecated
and will be removed.
Note its planned removal in feature-removal-schedule.txt.

Fix and cleanup example scripts in fault injection documentation.
1. Eliminate broken oops() shell function.
2. Fold failcmd.sh and failmodule.sh into example scripts. It makes
the example scripts work independent of current working directory.
3. Set "space" parameter to 0 to start injecting errors immediately.
4. Use /sys/module/<modulename>/sections/.data as upper bound of
.text section. Because some module doesn't have .exit.text section.

Limiting smaller allocation failures by fault injection helps to find real
possible bugs. Because higher order allocations are likely to fail and
zero-order allocations are not likely to fail.
This patch adds min-order parameter to fail_page_alloc. It specifies the
minimum page allocation order to be injected failures.

Add the print-fatal-signals=1 boot option and the
/proc/sys/kernel/print-fatal-signals runtime switch.
This feature prints some minimal information about userspace segfaults to
the kernel console. This is useful to find early bootup bugs where
userspace debugging is very hard.
Defaults to off.

Add a new configuration variable
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON
If set then the kernel will be booted by default with slab debugging
switched on. Similar to CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG. By default slab debugging
is available but must be enabled by specifying "slub_debug" as a
kernel parameter.
Also add support to switch off slab debugging for a kernel that was
built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. This works by specifying
slub_debug=-
as a kernel parameter.
Dave Jones wanted this feature.

Make zonelist creation policy selectable from sysctl/boot option v6.
This patch makes NUMA's zonelist (of pgdat) order selectable.
Available order are Default(automatic)/ Node-based / Zone-based.
[Default Order]
The kernel selects Node-based or Zone-based order automatically.
[Node-based Order]
This policy treats the locality of memory as the most important parameter.
Zonelist order is created by each zone's locality. This means lower zones
(ex. ZONE_DMA) can be used before higher zone (ex. ZONE_NORMAL) exhausion.
IOW. ZONE_DMA will be in the middle of zonelist.
current 2.6.21 kernel uses this.
Pros.
* A user can expect local memory as much as possible.
Cons.
* lower zone will be exhansted before higher zone. This may cause OOM_KILL.
Maybe suitable if ZONE_DMA is relatively big and you never see OOM_KILL
because of ZONE_DMA exhaution and you need the best locality.
(example)
assume 2 node NUMA. node(0) has ZONE_DMA/ZONE_NORMAL, node(1) has ZONE_NORMAL.
*node(0)'s memory allocation order:
node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA -> node(1)'s NORMAL.
*node(1)'s memory allocation order:
node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.
[Zone-based order]
This policy treats the zone type as the most important parameter.
Zonelist order is created by zone-type order. This means lower zone
never be used bofere higher zone exhaustion.
IOW. ZONE_DMA will be always at the tail of zonelist.
Pros.
* OOM_KILL(bacause of lower zone) occurs only if the whole zones are exhausted.
Cons.
* memory locality may not be best.
(example)
assume 2 node NUMA. node(0) has ZONE_DMA/ZONE_NORMAL, node(1) has ZONE_NORMAL.
*node(0)'s memory allocation order:
node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.
*node(1)'s memory allocation order:
node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.
bootoption "numa_zonelist_order=" and proc/sysctl is supporetd.
command:
%echo N > /proc/sys/vm/numa_zonelist_order
Will rebuild zonelist in Node-based order.
command:
%echo Z > /proc/sys/vm/numa_zonelist_order
Will rebuild zonelist in Zone-based order.

Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and
include/asm-x86_64/serial.h. the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in
serial initializing stage. the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=>
register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console
ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time. need to wait till uart_add_one_port in
drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0.
that is too late.
Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier. Make
it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature.
and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically.
new command line will be:
console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8
console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8
or
earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8
earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8
it will print in very early stage:
Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8')
console [uart0] enabled
later for console it will print:
console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0]

This version brings a number of new checks, fixes for flase
positives, plus a clarification of the output to better guide use. Of
note:
- checks for documentation for new __setup calls
- clearer reporting where braces and parenthesis are involved
- reports for closing brace and semi-colon spacing
- reports on unwanted externs
This patch includes an update to the documentation on checkpatch.pl
itself to clarify when it should be used and to indicate that it
is not intended as the final arbitor of style.
Full changelog:
Andy Whitcroft (19):
Version: 0.07
ensure we do not apply control brace checks to preprocesor directives
add {u,s}{8,16,32,64} to the type matcher
accept lack of spacing after the semicolons in for (;;)
report new externs in .c files
fix up typedef exclusion for function prototypes
else trailing statements check need to account for \ at end of line
add enums to the type matcher
add missing check descriptions
suppress double reporting of ** spacing
report on do{ spacing issues
include an example of the brace/parenthesis in output
check for spacing after closing braces
prevent double reports on pointer spacing issues
handle blank continuation lines on macros
classify all reports error, warning, or check
revamp hanging { checks and apply in context
no spaces after the last ; in a for is ok
check __setup has a corresponding addition to documentation

When the vport attribute "delete" is used to delete the vport, sysfs
deadlocks waiting for the write to complete, which is waiting for the
sysfs teardown to complete. Moved this effort to a work_q element.
Took the opportunity to make some other cosmetic changes:
- removed tabs in Doc file - replaced with expanded spaces
- minor copyright text and author text updates
- removed a bunch of trailing whitespace

This patch provides support for FC virtual ports based on NPIV.
For information on the interfaces and design, please read the
Documentation/scsi/scsi_fc_transport.txt file enclosed within
the patch.
The RFC was originally posted here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=117226959918393&w=2
Changes from the initial RFC:
- Bug fix: needed a transport_class_unregister() for the vport class
- Create a symlink to the vport in the shost device if it is not the
parent of the vport.
- Made symbolic name writable so it can be set after creation
- Made the temporary fc_vport_identifiers struct private to the
transport.
- Deleted the vport_id field from the vport. I couldn't find any good
use for it (and symname is a good replacement).
- Made the vport_state and vport_last_state "private" attributes.
Added the fc_vport_set_state() helper function to manage state
transitions
- Updated vport_create() to allow a vport to be created in a disabled
state.
- Added INITIALIZING and FAILED vport states
- Added VPCERR_xxx defines for errors to be returned from vport_create()
- Created a Documentation/scsi/scsi_fc_transport.txt file that describes
the interfaces and expected LLDD behaviors.

This patch updates some of the documentation about DMA buffer management
for USB, and ways to avoid extra copying. Our understanding of the issues
has improved over time.
- Most drivers should *avoid* the dma-coherent allocators. There are
a few exceptions (like the HID driver).
- Some methods are currently commented out; it seems folk writing
USB drivers aren't doing performance tuning at that level yet.
- Just avoid highmem; there's no good way to pass an "I can do highmem
DMA" capability through a driver stack. This is easy, everything
already avoids highmem. But it'd be nice if x86_32 systems with much
physical memory could use it directly with network adapters and mass
storage devices. (Patch, anyone?)

This patch (as920) adds an extra level of protection to the
USB-Persist facility. Now it will apply by default only to hubs; for
all other devices the user must enable it explicitly by setting the
power/persist device attribute.
The disconnect_all_children() routine in hub.c has been removed and
its code placed inline. This is the way it was originally as part of
hub_pre_reset(); the revised usage in hub_reset_resume() is
sufficiently different that the code can no longer be shared.
Likewise, mark_children_for_reset() is now inline as part of
hub_reset_resume(). The end result looks much cleaner than before.
The sysfs interface is updated to add the new attribute file, and
there are corresponding documentation updates.

This patch (as886) adds the controversial USB-persist facility,
allowing USB devices to persist across a power loss during system
suspend.
The facility is controlled by a new Kconfig option (with appropriate
warnings about the potential dangers); when the option is off the
behavior will remain the same as it is now. But when the option is
on, people will be able to use suspend-to-disk and keep their USB
filesystems intact -- something particularly valuable for small
machines where the root filesystem is on a USB device!

Add a new security check on mmap operations to see if the user is attempting
to mmap to low area of the address space. The amount of space protected is
indicated by the new proc tunable /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr and defaults to
0, preserving existing behavior.
This patch uses a new SELinux security class "memprotect." Policy already
contains a number of allow rules like a_t self:process * (unconfined_t being
one of them) which mean that putting this check in the process class (its
best current fit) would make it useless as all user processes, which we also
want to protect against, would be allowed. By taking the memprotect name of
the new class it will also make it possible for us to move some of the other
memory protect permissions out of 'process' and into the new class next time
we bump the policy version number (which I also think is a good future idea)

Example memory map (HP rx7640 with 'default' acpiconfig setting, VGA disabled):
0x00000000 - 0x3FFFBFFF supports only WB (cacheable) access
If a user attempts to perform an MMIO mmap (using the PCIIOC_MMAP_IS_MEM ioctl)
to PCI config space (like mmap'ing and accessing memory at 0xA0000),
we will MCA because the kernel will attempt to use a mapping with the UC
attribute.
So check the memory attribute in kern_mmap and the EFI memmap. If WC is
requested, and WC or UC access is supported for the region, allow it.
Otherwise, use the same attribute the kernel uses.
Updates documentation and test cases as well.

sysfs binary attributes
Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

Document the expectations about device MTU handling.
The documentation about oversize packet handling is probably too
loose.
IMHO devices should drop oversize packets for robustness,
but many devices allow it now. For example, if you set mtu to 1200
bytes, most ether devices will allow a 1500 byte frame in.

Add an ability to utilize the internal SRAM buffer on ICH4
and newer host controllers to speed up execution of block operations.
I've split the code so that it is more clear which block transaction is
performed.
First of all the host controller's type is identified. isich4 is set when
we think that the controller has the internal buffer. Then, before every
block transaction, if isich4 is set, we attempt to enable the E32B bit in
SMBAUXCTL register.
