* | | | | [media] v4l2-dev: make it possible to skip locking for selected ioctlsHans Verkuil2012-05-14

But some drivers, particularly USB drivers, may want to prevent the core from taking the lock for specific ioctls, particularly buffer queuing ioctls. The reason is that certain commands like S_CTRL can take a long time to process over USB and all the time the core has the lock, preventing VIDIOC_DQBUF from proceeding, even though a frame may be ready in the queue. This introduces unwanted latency. Since the buffer queuing commands often have their own internal lock it is often not necessary to take the core lock. Drivers can now say that they don't want the core to take the lock for specific ioctls. As it is a specific opt-out it makes it clear to the reviewer that those ioctls will need more care when reviewing.

* | | | | [media] v4l2: use __u32 rather than enums in ioctl() structsSakari Ailus2012-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | V4L2 uses the enum type in IOCTL arguments in IOCTLs that were defined until the use of enum was considered less than ideal. Recently Rémi Denis-Courmont brought up the issue by proposing a patch to convert the enums to unsigned: <URL:http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg46167.html> This sparked a long discussion where another solution to the issue was proposed: two sets of IOCTL structures, one with __u32 and the other with enums, and conversion code between the two: <URL:http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg47168.html> Both approaches implement a complete solution that resolves the problem. The first one is simple but requires assuming enums and __u32 are the same in size (so we won't break the ABI) while the second one is more complex and less clean but does not require making that assumption. The issue boils down to whether enums are fundamentally different from __u32 or not, and can the former be substituted by the latter. During the discussion it was concluded that the __u32 has the same size as enums on all archs Linux is supported: it has not been shown that replacing those enums in IOCTL arguments would break neither source or binary compatibility. If no such reason is found, just replacing the enums with __u32s is the way to go. This is what this patch does. This patch is slightly different from Remi's first RFC (link above): it uses __u32 instead of unsigned and also changes the arguments of VIDIOC_G_PRIORITY and VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY.

After a few hectic block IO core changes for 3.3 and 3.2, I'm quite happy with a slow round. Really minor stuff in here, the only real functional change is making the auto-unplug threshold a per-queue entity. The threshold is set so that it's low enough that we don't hold off IO for too long, but still big enough to get a nice benefit from the batched insert (and hence queue lock cost reduction). For raid configurations, this currently breaks down." * 'for-3.4/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: block: make auto block plug flush threshold per-disk based Documentation: Add sysfs ABI change for cfq's target latency. block: Make cfq_target_latency tunable through sysfs. block: use lockdep_assert_held for queue locking block: blk_alloc_queue_node(): use caller's GFP flags instead of GFP_KERNEL

Fix from Eric Dumazet. 11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't. Let the natural sequence generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE settings, guide the tcp_push() calls. Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch effectively into GSO/TSO clusters. From Eric Dumazet. 12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we cannot touch it after queueing it like that. Fixes from Eric Dumazet. 13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer to transmit the PPP frame. But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the TX queue right before returning from the transmit method. Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case when it gets backlogged to the downstream device. David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until it's downstream can't take data any more. 14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver changes, re-add. From Marc Kleine-Budde. 15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen. 16) Descriptor writeback fixes in e1000e from Matthew Vick. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (47 commits) net: fix a race in sock_queue_err_skb() netlink: fix races after skb queueing doc, net: Update ndo_start_xmit return type and values doc, net: Remove instruction to set net_device::trans_start doc, net: Update netdev operation names doc, net: Update documentation of synchronisation for TX multiqueue doc, net: Remove obsolete reference to dev->poll ethtool: Remove exception to the requirement of holding RTNL lock MAINTAINERS: update for Marvell Ethernet drivers bonding: properly unset current_arp_slave on slave link up phonet: Check input from user before allocating tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once ipv6: fix array index in ip6_mc_add_src() mlx4: allocate just enough pages instead of always 4 pages stmmac: re-add IFF_UNICAST_FLT for dwmac1000 bnx2x: Clear MDC/MDIO warning message bnx2x: Fix BCM57711+BCM84823 link issue bnx2x: Clear BCM84833 LED after fan failure bnx2x: Fix BCM84833 PHY FW version presentation bnx2x: Fix link issue for BCM8727 boards. ...
