2011-09-27vfs: remove LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flagLinus Torvalds
That flag no longer makes sense, since we don't look up automount points as eagerly any more. Additionally, it turns out that the NO_AUTOMOUNT handling was buggy to begin with: it would avoid automounting even for cases where we really *needed* to do the automount handling, and could return ENOENT for autofs entries that hadn't been instantiated yet. With our new non-eager automount semantics, one discussion has been about adding a AT_AUTOMOUNT flag to vfs_fstatat (and thus the newfstatat() and fstatat64() system calls), but it's probably not worth it: you can always force at least directory automounting by simply adding the final '/' to the filename, which works for *all* of the stat family system calls, old and new. So AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT (and thus LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT) really were just a result of our bad default behavior.

2011-09-27clk: provide prepare/unprepare functionsRussell King
As discussed previously, there's the need on some platforms to run some parts of clk_enable() in contexts which can schedule. The solution which was agreed upon was to provide clk_prepare() and clk_unprepare() to contain this parts, while clk_enable() and clk_disable() perform the atomic part. This patch provides a common definition for clk_prepare() and clk_unprepare() in linux/clk.h, and provides an upgrade path for existing implementation and drivers: drivers can start using clk_prepare() and clk_unprepare() once this patch is merged without having to wait for platform support. Platforms can then start to provide these additional functions. Eventually, HAVE_CLK_PREPARE will be removed from the kernel, and everyone will have to provide these new APIs.

2011-09-26vfs pathname lookup: Add LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flagLinus Torvalds
Since we've now turned around and made LOOKUP_FOLLOW *not* force an automount, we want to add the ability to force an automount event on lookup even if we don't happen to have one of the other flags that force it implicitly (LOOKUP_OPEN, LOOKUP_DIRECTORY, LOOKUP_PARENT..) Most cases will never want to use this, since you'd normally want to delay automounting as long as possible, which usually implies LOOKUP_OPEN (when we open a file or directory, we really cannot avoid the automount any more). But Trond argued sufficiently forcefully that at a minimum bind mounting a file and quotactl will want to force the automount lookup. Some other cases (like nfs_follow_remote_path()) could use it too, although LOOKUP_DIRECTORY would work there as well. This commit just adds the flag and logic, no users yet, though. It also doesn't actually touch the LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag that is related, and was made irrelevant by the same change that made us not follow on LOOKUP_FOLLOW.

2011-09-26PM / Domains: Split device PM domain data into base and need_restoreRafael J. Wysocki
The struct pm_domain_data data type is defined in such a way that adding new fields specific to the generic PM domains code will require include/linux/pm.h to be modified. As a result, data types used only by the generic PM domains code will be defined in two headers, although they all should be defined in pm_domain.h and pm.h will need to include more headers, which won't be very nice. For this reason change the definition of struct pm_subsys_data so that its domain_data member is a pointer, which will allow struct pm_domain_data to be subclassed by various PM domains implementations. Remove the need_restore member from struct pm_domain_data and make the generic PM domains code subclass it by adding the need_restore member to the new data type. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2011-09-21x86, x2apic: Enable the bios request for x2apic optoutSuresh Siddha
On the platforms which are x2apic and interrupt-remapping capable, Linux kernel is enabling x2apic even if the BIOS doesn't. This is to take advantage of the features that x2apic brings in. Some of the OEM platforms are running into issues because of this, as their bios is not x2apic aware. For example, this was resulting in interrupt migration issues on one of the platforms. Also if the BIOS SMI handling uses APIC interface to send SMI's, then the BIOS need to be aware of x2apic mode that OS has enabled. On some of these platforms, BIOS doesn't have a HW mechanism to turnoff the x2apic feature to prevent OS from enabling it. To resolve this mess, recent changes to the VT-d2 specification: http://download.intel.com/technology/computing/vptech/Intel(r)_VT_for_Direct_IO.pdf includes a mechanism that provides BIOS a way to request system software to opt out of enabling x2apic mode. Look at the x2apic optout flag in the DMAR tables before enabling the x2apic mode in the platform. Also print a warning that we have disabled x2apic based on the BIOS request. Kernel boot parameter "intremap=no_x2apic_optout" can be used to override the BIOS x2apic optout request.

2011-09-19regmap: Add the LZO cache supportDimitris Papastamos
This patch adds support for LZO compression when storing the register cache. For a typical device whose register map would normally occupy 25kB or 50kB by using the LZO compression technique, one can get down to ~5-7kB. There might be a performance penalty associated with each individual read/write due to decompressing/compressing the underlying cache, however that should not be noticeable. These memory benefits depend on whether the target architecture can get rid of the memory occupied by the original register defaults cache which is marked as __devinitconst. Nevertheless there will be some memory gain even if the target architecture can't get rid of the original register map, this should be around ~30-32kB instead of 50kB.

2011-09-19regmap: Add the rbtree cache supportDimitris Papastamos
This patch adds support for the rbtree cache compression type. Each rbnode manages a variable length block of registers. There can be no two nodes with overlapping blocks. Each block has a base register and a currently top register, all the other registers, if any, lie in between these two and in ascending order. The reasoning behind the construction of this rbtree is simple. In the snd_soc_rbtree_cache_init() function, we iterate over the register defaults provided by the regcache core. For each register value that is non-zero we insert it in the rbtree. In order to determine in which rbnode we need to add the register, we first look if there is another register already added that is adjacent to the one we are about to add. If that is the case we append it in that rbnode block, otherwise we create a new rbnode with a single register in its block and add it to the tree. There are various optimizations across the implementation to speed up lookups by caching the most recently used rbnode.

This is the simplest form of a cache available in regcache. Any registers whose default value is 0 are ignored.

2011-09-19regmap: Introduce caching supportDimitris Papastamos
This patch introduces caching support for regmap. The regcache API has evolved essentially out of ASoC soc-cache so most of the actual caching types (except LZO) have been tested in the past. The purpose of regcache is to optimize in time and space the handling of register caches. Time optimization is achieved by not having to go over a slow bus like I2C to read the value of a register, instead it is cached locally in memory and can be retrieved faster. Regarding space optimization, some of the cache types are better at packing the caches, for e.g. the rbtree and the LZO caches. By doing this the sacrifice in time still wins over doing I2C transactions.

2011-09-19tracing: Add a counter clock for those that do not trust clocksSteven Rostedt
When debugging tight race conditions, it can be helpful to have a synchronized tracing method. Although in most cases the global clock provides this functionality, if timings is not the issue, it is more comforting to know that the order of events really happened in a precise order. Instead of using a clock, add a "counter" that is simply an incrementing atomic 64bit counter that orders the events as they are perceived to happen. The trace_clock_counter() is added from the attempt by Peter Zijlstra trying to convert the trace_clock_global() to it. I took Peter's counter code and made trace_clock_counter() instead, and added it to the choice of clocks. Just echo counter > /debug/tracing/trace_clock to activate it.

2011-09-18usb: Provide usb_speed_string() functionMichal Nazarewicz
In a few places in the kernel, the code prints a human-readable USB device speed (eg. "high speed"). This involves a switch statement sometimes wrapped around in ({ ... }) block leading to code repetition. To mitigate this issue, this commit introduces usb_speed_string() function, which returns a human-readable name of provided speed. It also changes a few places switch was used to use this new function. This changes a bit the way the speed is printed in few instances at the same time standardising it.

2011-09-16ethtool: Update ethtool_rxnfc::rule_cnt on return from ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALLBen Hutchings
A user-space process must use ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLCNT to find the number of classification rules, then allocate a buffer of the right size, then use ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL to fill the buffer. If some other process inserts or deletes a rule between those two operations, the user buffer might turn out to be the wrong size. If it's too small, the return value will be -EMSGSIZE. But if it's too large, there is no indication of this. Fix this by updating the rule_cnt field on return. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-09-16ethtool: Clean up definitions of rule location arrays in RX NFCBen Hutchings
Correct the description of ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs; it is an array of currently used locations, not all possible valid locations. Add note that drivers must not use ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs. The rule_locs argument to ethtool_ops::get_rxnfc is either NULL or a pointer to an array of u32, so change the parameter type accordingly.
