* [PATCH] sched: add new SCHED_BATCH policyIngo Molnar2006-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new SCHED_BATCH (3) scheduling policy: such tasks are presumed CPU-intensive, and will acquire a constant +5 priority level penalty. Such policy is nice for workloads that are non-interactive, but which do not want to give up their nice levels. The policy is also useful for workloads that want a deterministic scheduling policy without interactivity causing extra preemptions (between that workload's tasks).

* [PATCH] Altix: ioc3 serial supportPatrick Gefre2006-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add driver support for a 2 port PCI IOC3-based serial card on Altix boxes: This is a re-submission. On the original submission I was asked to organize the code so that the MIPS ioc3 ethernet and serial parts could be used with this driver. Stanislaw Skowronek was kind enough to provide the shim layer for this - thanks Stanislaw. This patch includes the shim layer and the Altix PCI ioc3 serial driver. The MIPS merged ioc3 ethernet and serial support is forthcoming.

| * [SCSI] iscsi: seperate iscsi interface from setup functionsMike Christie2006-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the second version of the patch to address Christoph's comments. Instead of doing the lib, I just kept everything in scsi_trnapsort_iscsi.c like the FC and SPI class. This was becuase the driver model and sysfs class is tied to the session and connection setup so separating did not buy very much at this time. The reason for this patch was becuase HW iscsi LLDs like qla4xxx cannot use the iscsi class becuase the scsi_host was tied to the interface and class code. This patch just seperates the session from scsi host so that LLDs that allocate the host per some resource like pci device can still use the class. This is also fixes a couple refcount bugs that can be triggered when users have a sysfs file open, close the session, then read or write to the file.

| * [SCSI] remove target parent limitiationChristoph Hellwig2006-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When James Smart fixed the issue of the userspace scan atributes crashing the system with the FC transport class he added a patch to let the transport class check if the parent is valid for a given transport class. When adding support for the integrated raid of fusion sas devices we ran into a problem with that, as it didn't allow adding virtual raid volumes without the transport class knowing about it. So this patch adds a user_scan attribute instead, that takes over from scsi_scan_host_selected if the transport class sets it and thus lets the transport class control the user-initiated scanning. As this plugs the hole about user-initiated scanning the target_parent hook goes away and we rely on callers of the scanning routines to do something sensible. For SAS this meant I had to switch from a spinlock to a mutex to synchronize the topology linked lists, in FC they were completely unsynchronized which seems wrong.

This code kicks in after the glue code creates a platform_device with the right platform_data. That data includes I/O loops, which will usually come from expanding an inline function (provided in the header). One goal is that the I/O loops should be easily optimized down to a few GPIO register accesses, in common cases, for speed and minimized overhead. This understands all the currently defined protocol tweaking options in the SPI framework, and might eventually serve as as reference implementation. - different word sizes (1..32 bits) - differing clock rates - SPI modes differing by CPOL (affecting chip select and I/O loops) - SPI modes differing by CPHA (affecting I/O loops) - delays (usecs) after transfers - temporarily deselecting chips in mid-transfer A lot of hardware could work with this framework, though common types of controller can't reach peak performance without switching to a driver structure that supports pipelining of transfers (e.g. DMA queues) and maybe controllers (e.g. IRQ driven).

Highlights the use of DMA-safe i/o buffers, and zero-initializing spi_message and such metadata. - Provide a simple alloc/free for spi_message and its spi_transfer; this is only one of the possible memory management policies.

This increase the footprint of the core a bit, since it now includes code to do what the driver core was previously handling directly. Documentation and comments were updated to match. * spi_alloc_master() now does class_device_initialize(), so it can at least be refcounted before spi_register_master(). To match, spi_register_master() switched over to class_device_add(). * States explicitly that after transfer errors, spi_devices will be deselected. We want fault recovery procedures to work the same for all controller drivers. * Minor tweaks: controller_data no longer points to readonly data; prevent some potential cast-from-null bugs with container_of calls; clarifies some existing kerneldoc, And a few small cleanups.

Key differences from those two: - Uses the new SPI framework (minimalist version) - <linux/spi/ads7846.h> abstracts board-specific touchscreen info - Sysfs attributes for the temperature and voltage sensors - Uses fewer ARM-specific IRQ primitives The temperature and voltage sensors show up in sysfs like this: $ pwd /sys/devices/platform/omap-uwire/spi2.0 $ ls bus@ input:event0@ power/ temp1 vbatt driver@ modalias temp0 vaux $ cat modalias ads7846 $ cat temp0 991 $ cat temp1 1177 $ So far only basic testing has been done. There's a fair amount of hardware that uses this sensor, and which also runs Linux, which should eventually be able to use this driver. One portability note may be of special interest. It turns out that not all SPI controllers are happy issuing requests that do things like "write 8 bit command, read 12 bit response". Most of them seem happy to handle various word sizes, so the issue isn't "12 bit response" but rather "different rx and tx write sizes", despite that being a common MicroWire convention. So this version of the driver no longer reads 12 bit native-endian words; it reads 16-bit big-endian responses, then byteswaps them and shifts the results to discard the noise.

If there's got to be a mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget. :) - The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver model tree. (Hardware probing is rarely an option.) - This version of Kconfig includes no drivers. At this writing there are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire) and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML mentions of other drivers in development. - No userspace API. There are several implementations to compare. Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs. The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor, and include: - One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect. - The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for DMA drivers that want to be fancy. - Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init. Even though board init logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is for driver support, and the board init support uses static init. - Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions with other folk. It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk who've helped nudge this framework into existence. As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support that this driver framework will need to evolve.

Adds a new SAL call to populate a sn_flush_device_common struct per device, not per widget as previously done. 3.

This commit makes the kernel supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860 are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455 are all called "ppc7450". The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric (e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended. This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

| * | | [PATCH] powerpc: use lwsync in atomics, bitops, lock functionsAnton Blanchard2006-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | eieio is only a store - store ordering. When used to order an unlock operation loads may leak out of the critical region. This is potentially buggy, one example is if a user wants to atomically read a couple of values. We can solve this with an lwsync which orders everything except store - load. I removed the (now unused) EIEIO_ON_SMP macros and the c versions isync_on_smp and eieio_on_smp now we dont use them. I also removed some old comments that were used to identify inline spinlocks in assembly, they dont make sense now our locks are out of line. Another interesting thing was that read_unlock was using an eieio even though the rest of the spinlock code had already been converted to use lwsync.

| * | | [PATCH] powerpc: Remove lppaca structure from the PACADavid Gibson2006-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level per-cpu structure. This doesn't have to be so, the patch below removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures. This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and hypervisor portions of every PACA. On the other hand it means an extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca. The patch also gets rid of several places where we assign the paca address to a local variable for no particular reason.

| * | | [PATCH] powerpc: Cleanup LOADADDR etc. asm macrosDavid Gibson2006-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or 64-bit constants in assembler (LOADADDR, LOADBASE, SET_REG_TO_*). The idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given situation. The new macros and their semantics are described in the comments in ppc_asm.h. In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC. Likewise we cleanup a couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with asm instructions to use assemble-time arithmetic or the toreal() macro instead.

Since we hand out pointers to properties with gay abandon, we can't just free the property storage. Instead we move deleted, or the old copy of an updated property, to a "dead properties" list. Also note, its not feasable to kref device tree properties. we call get_property() all over the kernel in a wild variety of contexts. One consequence of this change is that we now take a read_lock(&devtree_lock) when doing get_property().
