* tgafb: TURBOchannel supportMaciej W. Rozycki2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is support for the TC variations of the TGA boards (properly known as SFB+ or Smart Frame Buffer Plus boards). The 8-plane SFB+ board uses the Bt459 RAMDAC (unlike its PCI TGA counterpart, which uses the Bt485), so bits have been added to support this chip as well. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

* fb: fsync() method for deferred I/O flush.Paul Mundt2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are cases when we do not want to wait on the delay for automatically updating the "real" framebuffer, this implements a simple ->fsync() hook for explicitly flushing the deferred I/O work. The ->page_mkwrite() handler will rearm the work queue normally.

* fbdev: mm: Deferred IO supportJaya Kumar2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements deferred IO support in fbdev. Deferred IO is a way to delay and repurpose IO. This implementation is done using mm's page_mkwrite and page_mkclean hooks in order to detect, delay and then rewrite IO. This functionality is used by hecubafb. [adaplas] This is useful for graphics hardware with no directly addressable/mappable framebuffer. Implementing this will allow the "framebuffer" to be accesible from user space via mmap().

* x86, serial: convert legacy COM ports to platform devicesBjorn Helgaas2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make x86 COM ports into platform devices and don't probe for them if we have PNP. This prevents double discovery, where a device was found both by the legacy probe and by 8250_pnp, e.g., serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A 00:02: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A This also means IRDA devices without a UART PNP ID will no longer be claimed by the serial driver, which might require changes in IRDA drivers and administration. In addition to this patch, you may need to configure a setserial init script, e.g., /etc/init.d/setserial, so it doesn't poke legacy UART stuff back in. On Debian, "dpkg-reconfigure setserial" with the "kernel" option does this. To force the old legacy probe behavior even when we have PNPBIOS or ACPI, load the new legacy_serial module (or build 8250 static) with the "legacy_serial.force" option.

* PNP: notice whether we have PNP devices (PNPBIOS or PNPACPI)Bjorn Helgaas2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This series converts i386 and x86_64 legacy serial ports to be platform devices and prevents probing for them if we have PNP. This prevents double discovery, where a device was found both by the legacy probe and by 8250_pnp. This also prevents the serial driver from claiming IRDA devices (unless they have a UART PNP ID). The serial legacy probe sometimes assumed the wrong IRQ, so the user had to use "setserial" to fix it. Removing the need for setserial to make IRDA devices work seems good, but it does break some things. In particular, you may need to keep setserial from poking legacy UART stuff back in by doing something like "dpkg-reconfigure setserial" with the "kernel" option. Otherwise, the setserial-discovered "UART" will claim resources and prevent the IRDA driver from loading. This patch: If we can discover devices using PNP, we can skip some legacy probes. This flag ("pnp_platform_devices") indicates that PNPBIOS or PNPACPI is enabled and should tell us about builtin devices.

* Add IRQF_IRQPOLL flag (common code)Bernhard Walle2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | irqpoll is broken on some architectures that don't use the IRQ 0 for the timer interrupt like IA64. This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag. Each architecture is handled in a separate pach. As I left the irq == 0 as condition, this should not break existing architectures that use timer_irq == 0 and that I did't address with that patch (because I don't know). This patch: This patch adds a IRQF_IRQPOLL flag that the interrupt registration code could use for the interrupt it wants to use for IRQ polling. Because this must not be the timer interrupt, an additional flag was added instead of re-using the IRQF_TIMER constant. Until all architectures will have an IRQF_IRQPOLL interrupt, irq == 0 will stay as alternative as it should not break anything. Also, note_interrupt() is called on CPU-specific interrupts to be used as interrupt source for IRQ polling.

* x86: create asm/cmpxchg.hJeff Dike2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | i386: Rearrange the cmpxchg code to allow atomic.h to get it without needing to include system.h. This kills warnings in the UML build from atomic.h about implicit declarations of cmpxchg symbols. The i386 build presumably isn't seeing this because a separate inclusion of system.h is covering it over. The cmpxchg stuff is moved to asm-i386/cmpxchg.h, with an include left in system.h for the benefit of generic code which expects cmpxchg there. Meanwhile, atomic.h includes cmpxchg.h. This causes no noticable damage to the i386 build. x86_64: Move cmpxchg into its own header. atomic.h already included system.h, so this is changed to include cmpxchg.h. This is purely cleanup - it's not fixing any warnings - so if the x86_64 system.h isn't considered as cleanup-worthy as i386, then this can be dropped. It causes no noticable damage to the x86_64 build. uml: The i386 and x86_64 cmpxchg patches require an asm-um/cmpxchg.h for the UML build.

* atomic.h: atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular ↵Mathieu Desnoyers2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dependency atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency. I agree (with Andi Kleen) this typeof is not needed and more error prone. All the original atomic.h code that uses cmpxchg (which includes the atomic_add_unless) uses defines instead of inline functions, probably to circumvent a circular dependency between system.h and atomic.h on powerpc (which my patch addresses). Therefore, it makes sense to use inline functions that will provide type checking. atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency. Digging into the FRV architecture shows me that it is also affected by such a circular dependency. Here is the diff applying this against the rest of my atomic.h patches. It applies over the atomic.h standardization patches.

The interface update could go into 2.6.21, but that's not essential; they will be NOPs on most PCs, without the ACPI stuff. I suspect the ACPI folk may have opinions about how to merge that second patch, and how to obsolete that legacy procfs file. I'd like to see that merge into 2.6.22 if possible... As for how to kick it in ... two ways: - The appended "rtcwake" program; updated since the last time it was posted, it deals much better with timezones and DST. - Write the /sys/class/rtc/.../wakealarm file, then go to sleep. For some reason RTC wake from "swsusp" stopped working on a system where it previously worked; the alarm setting appears to get clobbered. But on the bright side, RTC wake from "standby" worked on a system that had never been able to resume from that state before ... IDEACPI is my guess as to why it finally started to work. It's the old "two steps forward, one step back" dance, I guess. - Dave /* gcc -Wall -Os -o rtcwake rtcwake.c */ #include <stdio.h> #include <getopt.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <errno.h> #include <time.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <linux/rtc.h> /* constants from legacy PC/AT hardware */ #define RTC_PF 0x40 #define RTC_AF 0x20 #define RTC_UF 0x10 /* * rtcwake -- enter a system sleep state until specified wakeup time. * * This uses cross-platform Linux interfaces to enter a system sleep state, * and leave it no later than a specified time.

That magic comes in two basic flavors: - Straightforward: enable_irq_wake(), the way it'd work on most SOC chips; or generally with system sleep states which don't disable core IRQ logic. - Roundabout, using non-IRQ platform hooks. This is needed with ACPI and one almost-clone chip which uses a special wakeup-only alarm. (That's the RTC used on Footbridge boards, FWIW, which don't do PM in Linux.) A separate patch implements those hooks for ACPI platforms, so that rtc_cmos can issue system wakeup events (and its sysfs "wakealarm" attribute works on at least some systems).

Accordingly, if it's configured then /dev support is now part of the RTC core, and is never a separate module. It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the process idle load balancing in the presence of dynticks. cpus for which ticks are stopped will sleep till the next event wakes it up. Potentially these sleeps can be for large durations and during which today, there is no periodic idle load balancing being done. This patch nominates an owner among the idle cpus, which does the idle load balancing on behalf of the other idle cpus. And once all the cpus are completely idle, then we can stop this idle load balancing too. Checks added in fast path are minimized. Whenever there are busy cpus in the system, there will be an owner(idle cpu) doing the system wide idle load balancing. Open items: 1.

* au1550 SPI controller driverJan Nikitenko2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here is a driver for the Alchemy au1550 PSC (Programmable Serial Controller) in SPI master mode. It supports dma transfers using the Alchemy descriptor based dma controller for 4-8 bits per word SPI transfers. For 9-24 bits per word transfers, pio irq based mode is used to avoid setup of dma channels from scratch on each number of bits per word change. Tested with au1550; this may also work on other MIPS Alchemy cpus, like au1200/au1210/au1250. Used extensively with SD card connected via SPI; this handles 8.1MHz SPI clock transfers using dma without any problem (the highest SPI clock freq possible with au1550 running on 324MHz). The driver supports sharing of SPI bus by multiple devices. All features of Alchemy SPI mode are supported (all SPI modes, msb/lsb first, bits per word in 4-24 range). As the SPI clock of the controller depends on main input clock that shall be configured externally, platform data structure for au1550 SPI controller driver contains mainclk_hz attribute to define the input clock rate. From this value, dividers of the controller for SPI clock are set up for required frequency. Signed-off-by: Jan Nikitenko <jan.nikitenko@gmail.com> Whitespace and section fixups. Remove partial workaround for platform setup bug in dma_mask setup; it couldn't work with multiple controllers.
