2015-08-06Merge branch 'doc/4.3-reproducible' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet
Ben Hutchings writes: As part of the reproducible builds project, Jérémy Bobbio identified several time-dependent and non-deterministic functions in the document build process (htmldocs, mandocs targets). This patch series should fix all of those. I ended up reverting one patch that introduced problems.
2015-08-06Revert "DocBook: Avoid building man pages repeatedly and inconsistently"Jonathan Corbet
This reverts commit b44158b17099ed5c7c8f4bfb7029942adbfbc318. This commit introduced warnings and possibly inconsistent results into the doc build process.

2015-07-10DocBook: Avoid building man pages repeatedly and inconsistentlyBen Hutchings
Some kernel-doc sections are included in multiple DocBook files. This means the mandocs target will generate the same manual page multiple times with different metadata (author name/address and manual title, taken from the including DocBook file). If it's invoked in a parallel build, the output is nondeterminstic. For each section that is duplicated, mark the less specific manual's inclusion as 'extra' and exclude it during conversion to manual pages. Use xmlif for this, as that is bundled with xmlto which we already use. I would have preferred to use more conventional markup for this, but each of the following approaches failed: 1. Wrap the extra inclusions with a new element and add a template to the stylesheet to include/exclude them. Unfortunately DocBook XSL doesn't seem to support foreign elements at an intermediate level in the document tree. 2. Use DocBook profiling. This works but requires passing an absolute path to the profile stylesheet to xmlto, so it's not portable. 3. Use SGML marked sections. docbook2x can handle these but xmlto chokes on them.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of different areas. The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric drivers tree-wide. There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a completely lockless code-path. It also removes the original hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint. The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes. The highlights include: - Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi) - Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker (Christophe Vu-Brugier) - Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover) - Move se_node_acl allocation into target-core code (hch) - Add crc_t10dif_update common helper (akinobu + mkp) - Handle target-core odd SGL mapping for data transfer memory (akinobu) - Move transport ID handling into target-core (hch) - Move task tag into struct se_cmd + support 64-bit tags (bart) - Convert se_node_acl->device_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch + paulmck) - Convert se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch + paulmck) - Simplify target backend driver registration (hch) - Consolidate + simplify target backend attribute implementations (hch + nab) - Subsume se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member into se_lun (hch) - Drop lun_sep_lock for se_lun->lun_se_dev RCU usage (hch + nab) - Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter (nab) - Use 64-bit LUNs tree-wide (hannes) - Drop left-over TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT limit (hannes)" * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (76 commits) target: Bump core version to v5.0 target: remove target_core_configfs.h target: remove unused TARGET_CORE_CONFIG_ROOT define target: consolidate version defines target: implement WRITE_SAME with UNMAP bit using ->execute_unmap target: simplify UNMAP handling target: replace se_cmd->execute_rw with a protocol_data field target/user: Fix inconsistent kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic target: Send UA when changing LUN inventory target: Send UA upon LUN RESET tmr completion target: Send UA on ALUA target port group change target: Convert se_lun->lun_deve_lock to normal spinlock target: use 'se_dev_entry' when allocating UAs target: Remove 'ua_nacl' pointer from se_ua structure target_core_alua: Correct UA handling when switching states xen-scsiback: Fix compile warning for 64-bit LUN target: Remove TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT target: use 64-bit LUNs target: Drop duplicate + unused se_dev_check_wce target: Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter ...

The only new feature added by this update is the support for overriding objects in the ACPI namespace and a new ACPI table that can be used for that called the Override System Definition Table (OSDT).

2015-07-03ACPI / init: Make it possible to override _REVRafael J. Wysocki
The platform firmware on some systems expects Linux to return "5" as the supported ACPI revision which makes it expose system configuration information in a special way. For example, based on what ACPI exports as the supported revision, Dell XPS 13 (2015) configures its audio device to either work in HDA mode or in I2S mode, where the former is supposed to be used on Linux until the latter is fully supported (in the kernel as well as in user space). Since ACPI 6 mandates that _REV should return "2" if ACPI 2 or later is supported by the OS, a subsequent change will make that happen, so make it possible to override that on systems where "5" is expected to be returned for Linux to work correctly one them (such as the Dell machine mentioned above).

An input queue and a processing queue is split out from the monolithic fuse connection, each of those having their own spinlock. The end of the patchset adds the ability to clone a fuse connection. This means, that instead of having to read/write requests/answers on a single fuse device fd, the fuse daemon can have multiple distinct file descriptors open. Each of those can be used to receive requests and send answers, currently the only constraint is that a request must be answered on the same fd as it was read from. This can be extended further to allow binding a device clone to a specific CPU or NUMA node. Based on a patchset by Srinivas Eeda and Ashish Samant.
