Some ioctl's were defined wrong on 2.6.2 and 2.6.6, using the wrong
type of R/W arguments. They were fixed, but the old ioctl names are
still there, maintained to avoid breaking binary compatibility:
There's no sense on preserving those forever, as it is very doubtful
that someone would try to use a such old binary with a modern kernel.
Removing them will allow us to remove some magic done at the V4L ioctl
handler.
Note that any application compiled with a videodev2.h from 2.6.7 or later
will be using the correct ioctls.

tda9887 used to use the T_STANDBY type internally, while tea5761

In the past, T_STANDBY were used on devices with a separate radio tuner to
mark a tuner that were disabled. With the time, it got newer meanings.
Also, due to a bug at the logic, the driver might incorrectly return
T_STANDBY to userspace.
So, instead of keeping the abuse, just use a boolean for storing
such information.
We can't remove T_STANDBY yet, as this is used on two other drivers. A
latter patch will address its usage outside tuner-core.

Add a generic file io (read and write) emulator for videobuf2. It uses
MMAP memory type buffers and generic vb2 calls: req_bufs, qbuf and
dqbuf. Video date is being copied from mmap buffers to userspace with
standard copy_to_user() function. To add support for file io the driver
needs to provide an additional callback - read_setup or write_setup. It
should provide the default number of buffers used by emulator and flags.
With these flags one can detemine the style of read() or write()
emulation. By default 'streaming' style is used. With
VB2_FILEIO_READ_ONCE flag one can select 'one shot' mode for read()
emulator. With VB2_FILEIO_WRITE_IMMEDIATE flag one can select immediate
conversion of write calls to qbuf for write() emulator, so the vb2 will
not wait until each buffer is filled completely before queueing it to
the driver.

Videobuf2 is a Video for Linux 2 API-compatible driver framework for
multimedia devices. It acts as an intermediate layer between userspace
applications and device drivers. It also provides low-level, modular
memory management functions for drivers.
Videobuf2 eases driver development, reduces drivers' code size and aids in
proper and consistent implementation of V4L2 API in drivers.
Videobuf2 memory management backend is fully modular. This allows custom
memory management routines for devices and platforms with non-standard
memory management requirements to be plugged in, without changing the
high-level buffer management functions and API.
The framework provides:
- implementations of streaming I/O V4L2 ioctls and file operations
- high-level video buffer, video queue and state management functions
- video buffer memory allocation and management

Multi-planar API is as a backwards-compatible extension of the V4L2 API,
which allows video buffers to consist of one or more planes. Planes are
separate memory buffers; each has its own mapping, backed by usually
separate physical memory buffers.
Many different uses for the multi-planar API are possible, examples
include:
- embedded devices requiring video components to be placed in physically
separate buffers, e.g. for Samsung S3C/S5P SoC series' video codec,
Y and interleaved Cb/Cr components reside in buffers in different
memory banks;
- applications may receive (or choose to store) video data of one video
buffer in separate memory buffers; such data would have to be temporarily
copied together into one buffer before passing it to a V4L2 device;
- applications or drivers may want to pass metadata related to a buffer and
it may not be possible to place it in the same buffer, together with video
data.

This patch is adding support for Technisat's new USB2.0 DVB-S/S2 receiver
device. The development was sponsored by Technisat.
The Green led is toggle depending on the frontend-state. The Red LED is turned
on all the time.
The MAC address reading from the EEPROM along with the
LRC-method to check whether its valid.
Support for the IR-receiver of the Technisat USB2 box. The keys of
small, black remote-control are built-in, repeated key behaviour are
simulated.
The i2c-mutex of the dvb-usb-structure is used as a general mutex for
USB requests, as there are 3 threads racing for atomic requests
consisting of multiple usb-requests.
A module option is there which disables the toggling of LEDs by the
driver on certain triggers. Useful when being used in a "dark"
environment.

If we send a request to osd A, and the request's pg remaps to osd B and
then back to A in quick succession, we need to resend the request to A. The
old code was only calling kick_requests after processing all incremental
maps in a message, so it was very possible to not resend a request that
needed to be resent. This would make the osd eventually time out (at least
with the current default of osd timeouts enabled).
The correct approach is to scan requests on every map incremental. This
patch refactors the kick code in a few ways:
- all requests are either on req_lru (in flight), req_unsent (ready to
send), or req_notarget (currently map to no up osd)
- mapping always done by map_request (previous map_osds)
- if the mapping changes, we requeue. requests are resent only after all
map incrementals are processed.
- some osd reset code is moved out of kick_requests into a separate
function
- the "kick this osd" functionality is moved to kick_osd_requests, as it
is unrelated to scanning for request->pg->osd mapping changes

v3 -> v2: Moved ASPM enabling logic to pci_set_power_state()
v2 -> v1: Preserved the logic in pci_raw_set_power_state()
: Added ASPM enabling logic after scanning Root Bridge
: http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130046996216391&w=2
v1 : http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130013164703283&w=2
The assumption made in commit 41cd766b065970ff6f6c89dd1cf55fa706c84a3d
(PCI: Don't enable aspm before drivers have had a chance to veto it) that
pci_enable_device() will result in re-configuring ASPM when aspm_policy is
POWERSAVE is no longer valid. This is due to commit
97c145f7c87453cec90e91238fba5fe2c1561b32 (PCI: read current power state
at enable time) which resets dev->current_state to D0. Due to this the
call to pcie_aspm_pm_state_change() is never made. Note the equality check
(below) that returns early:
./drivers/pci/pci.c: pci_raw_set_pci_power_state()
546 /* Check if we're already there */
547 if (dev->current_state == state)
548 return 0;
Therefore OSPM never configures the PCIe links for ASPM to turn them "on".
Fix it by configuring ASPM from the pci_enable_device() code path. This
also allows a driver such as the e1000e networking driver a chance to
disable ASPM (L0s, L1), if need be, prior to enabling the device. A
driver may perform this action if the device is known to mis-behave
wrt ASPM.

We need to distinguish the situation in which ASPM support is
disabled from the command line or through .config from the situation
in which it is disabled, because the hardware or BIOS can't handle
it. In the former case we should not report ASPM support to the BIOS
through ACPI _OSC, but in the latter case we should do that.
Introduce pcie_aspm_support_enabled() that can be used by
acpi_pci_root_add() to determine whether or not it should report ASPM
support to the BIOS through _OSC.

One of the disadvantages of on-stack plugging is that we potentially
lose out on merging since all pending IO isn't always visible to
everybody. When we flush the on-stack plugs, right now we don't do
any checks to see if potential merge candidates could be utilized.
Correct this by adding a new insert variant, ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE.
It works just ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT, but first checks whether we can
merge with an existing request before doing the insertion (if we fail
merging).
This fixes a regression with multiple processes issuing IO that
can be merged.

It is frequently useful to sync a single file system, instead of all
mounted file systems via sync(2):
- On machines with many mounts, it is not at all uncommon for some of
them to hang (e.g. unresponsive NFS server). sync(2) will get stuck on
those and may never get to the one you do care about (e.g., /).
- Some applications write lots of data to the file system and then
want to make sure it is flushed to disk. Calling fsync(2) on each
file introduces unnecessary ordering constraints that result in a large
amount of sub-optimal writeback/flush/commit behavior by the file
system.
There are currently two ways (that I know of) to sync a single super_block:
- BLKFLSBUF ioctl on the block device: That also invalidates the bdev
mapping, which isn't usually desirable, and doesn't work for non-block
file systems.
- 'mount -o remount,rw' will call sync_filesystem as an artifact of the
current implemention. Relying on this little-known side effect for
something like data safety sounds foolish.
Both of these approaches require root privileges, which some applications
do not have (nor should they need?) given that sync(2) is an unprivileged
operation.
This patch introduces a new system call syncfs(2) that takes an fd and
syncs only the file system it references. Maybe someday we can
$ sync /some/path
and not get
sync: ignoring all arguments
The syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF.
syncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2).
A similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see

The b_cow_tid field will be used by the ext4 snapshots code to store
the transaction id when the buffer was last cowed.
Merging this patch to mainline will allow users to test ext4 snapshots
as a standalone module, without the need to patch and install a
development kernel.
On 64bit machines this field uses fills in a padding "hole" and does
not increase the size of the struct. On a 32bit machine this patch
increases the size of the struct from 60 to 64 bytes.

Below is a patch against drm-next branch of 2.6.38-rc8+ kernel that adds
the capability to wait on vblank events for CRTCs that are greater than 1
and thus cannot be represented with primary/secondary flags in the legacy
interface. It was discussed on the dri-devel list in these two threads:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2011-March/009009.html
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2011-March/009025.html
This patch extends the interface to drm_wait_vblank ioctl so that crtc>1
can be represented. It also adds a new capability to drm_getcap ioctl so
that the user space can check whether the new interface to drm_wait_vblank
is supported (and fall back to the legacy interface if not)
