2009-06-19i2c: Add a sysfs interface to instantiate devicesJean Delvare
Add a sysfs interface to instantiate and delete I2C devices. This is primarily a replacement of the force_* module parameters implemented by some i2c drivers. These module parameters were implemented internally by the I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, which don't scale well. This can also be used when developing a driver on a self-soldered board which doesn't yet have proper I2C device declaration at the platform level, and presumably for various debugging situations.

2009-06-19i2c: Limit core locking to the necessary sectionsJean Delvare
The i2c-core code tends to hold the core lock for longer than it should. Limit locking to the necessary sections for both performance and clarity. This is also a requirement to support I2C multiplexers in the future.

2009-06-19i2c: Kill the redundant client listJean Delvare
We used to maintain our own per-adapter list of i2c clients, but this is redundant with what the driver core does, and no longer needed. Just drop the redundant list. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Cc: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-06-19i2c: Kill is_newstyle_driverJean Delvare
Legacy i2c drivers are gone, all drivers are new-style now, so there is no point to check. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Cc: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-06-19i2c: Merge i2c_attach_client into i2c_new_deviceJean Delvare
Now that i2c_attach_client is no longer exported, it doesn't need to be a separate function. Merge it into its only user, i2c_new_device. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Cc: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>

2009-06-19i2c: Get rid of the legacy binding modelJean Delvare

2009-06-19perf_counter, x86: Improve interactions with fast-gupIngo Molnar
Improve a few details in perfcounter call-chain recording that makes use of fast-GUP: - Use ACCESS_ONCE() to observe the pte value. ptes are fundamentally racy and can be changed on another CPU, so we have to be careful about how we access them. The PAE branch is already careful with read-barriers - but the non-PAE and 64-bit side needs an ACCESS_ONCE() to make sure the pte value is observed only once. - make the checks a bit stricter so that we can feed it any kind of cra^H^H^H user-space input ;-) Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-06-19perf_counter: Simplify and fix task migration countingPeter Zijlstra
The task migrations counter was causing rare and hard to decypher memory corruptions under load. After a day of debugging and bisection we found that the problem was introduced with: 3f731ca: perf_counter: Fix cpu migration counter Turning them off fixes the crashes. Incidentally, the whole perf_counter_task_migration() logic can be done simpler as well, by injecting a proper sw-counter event. This cleanup also fixed the crashes. The precise failure mode is not completely clear yet, but we are clearly not unhappy about having a fix ;-) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-06-19perf_counter: Make callchain samples extensiblePeter Zijlstra
Before exposing upstream tools to a callchain-samples ABI, tidy it up to make it more extensible in the future: Use markers in the IP chain to denote context, use (u64)-1..-4095 range for these context markers because we use them for ERR_PTR(), so these addresses are unlikely to be mapped.

2009-06-18sparc64: Fix UP bootup regression.David S. Miller
Commit b696fdc259f0d94348a9327bed352fac44d4883d ("sparc64: Defer cpu_data() setup until end of per-cpu data initialization.") broke bootup for UP builds because the cpu_data() initialization only occurs in setup_per_cpu_areas() which is never compiled in nor called in UP builds. Fix this up by calling the setups directly from init_64.c when non-SMP.

2009-06-19drm/radeon: command stream checker for r3xx-r5xx hardwareJerome Glisse
For security purpose we want to make sure the userspace process doesn't access memory beyond buffer it owns. To achieve this we need to check states the userspace program. For color buffer and zbuffer we check that the clipping register will discard access beyond buffers set as color or zbuffer. For vertex buffer we check that no vertex fetch will happen beyond buffer end. For texture we check various texture states (number of mipmap level, texture size, texture depth, ...) to compute the amount of memory the texture fetcher might access. The command stream checking impact the performances so far quick benchmark shows an average of 3% decrease in fps of various applications. It can be optimized a bit more by caching result of checking and thus avoid a full recheck if no states changed since last check. Note that this patch is still incomplete on checking side as it doesn't check 2d rendering states. Signed-off-by: Jerome Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

2009-06-18function-graph: add stack frame testSteven Rostedt
In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return from function code, we would like to detect that. An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for this purpose. This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit. There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes. This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was. This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate the new prototype. Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace. This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

2009-06-18function-graph: disable when both x86_32 and optimize for size are configuredSteven Rostedt
On x86_32, when optimize for size is set, gcc may align the frame pointer and make a copy of the the return address inside the stack frame. The return address that is located in the stack frame may not be the one used to return to the calling function. This will break the function graph tracer. The function graph tracer replaces the return address with a jump to a hook function that can trace the exit of the function. If it only replaces a copy, then the hook will not be called when the function returns. Worse yet, when the parent function returns, the function graph tracer will return back to the location of the child function which will easily crash the kernel with weird results. To see the problem, when i386 is compiled with -Os we get: c106be03: 57 push %edi c106be04: 8d 7c 24 08 lea 0x8(%esp),%edi c106be08: 83 e4 e0 and $0xffffffe0,%esp c106be0b: ff 77 fc pushl 0xfffffffc(%edi) c106be0e: 55 push %ebp c106be0f: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp c106be11: 57 push %edi c106be12: 56 push %esi c106be13: 53 push %ebx c106be14: 81 ec 8c 00 00 00 sub $0x8c,%esp c106be1a: e8 f5 57 fb ff call c1021614 <mcount> When it is compiled with -O2 instead we get: c10896f0: 55 push %ebp c10896f1: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp c10896f3: 83 ec 28 sub $0x28,%esp c10896f6: 89 5d f4 mov %ebx,0xfffffff4(%ebp) c10896f9: 89 75 f8 mov %esi,0xfffffff8(%ebp) c10896fc: 89 7d fc mov %edi,0xfffffffc(%ebp) c10896ff: e8 d0 08 fa ff call c1029fd4 <mcount> The compile with -Os will align the stack pointer then set up the frame pointer (%ebp), and it copies the return address back into the stack frame. The change to the return address in mcount is done to the copy and not the real place holder of the return address. Then compile with -O2 sets up the frame pointer first, this makes the change to the return address by mcount affect where the function will jump on exit.
