mei: expose device state in sysfs

2019-04-25T17:33:34+00:00

Expose mei device state to user-space through sysfs. This gives indication to applications that driver is in transition, usefully mostly to detect link reset state. Signed-off-by: Alexander Usyskin Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: adjust the copyright notice in the files.

2019-03-27T17:07:54+00:00

Use unified version of the copyright notice in the files Update copyright years according the year the files were touched, except this patch and SPDX conversions. Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: convert to SPDX license tags

2019-03-27T17:07:54+00:00

Replace boiler plate licenses texts with the SPDX license identifiers in the mei files header. Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: replace POLL* with EPOLL* for write queues.

2018-10-02T22:39:59+00:00

Looks like during merging the bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement missed the patch 'commit af336cabe083 ("mei: limit the number of queued writes")' Fix sparse warning: drivers/misc/mei/main.c:602:13: warning: restricted __poll_t degrades to integer drivers/misc/mei/main.c:605:30: warning: invalid assignment: |= drivers/misc/mei/main.c:605:30: left side has type restricted __poll_t drivers/misc/mei/main.c:605:30: right side has type int Fixes: af336cabe083 ("mei: limit the number of queued writes") Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: fix ssize_t to int assignment in read and write ops.

2018-07-12T14:23:19+00:00

Use ssize_t for rets variables in mei_write(), mei_read(), and mei_cl_write() as well as change the return type of mei_cl_write() to ssize_t, to prevent assignment of possible 64bit size_t to int 32 bit variable. As by product also eliminate warning drivers/misc/mei/client.c:1702:11: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare] Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: don't update offset in write

2018-07-12T13:44:57+00:00

MEI enables writes of complete messages only while read can be performed in parts, hence write should not update the file offset to not break interleaving partial reads with writes. Cc: Signed-off-by: Alexander Usyskin Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: expose fw version to sysfs

2018-07-03T11:11:20+00:00

The ME FW version is constantly used by detection and update tools. To improve the reliability and simplify these tools provide a sysfs interface to access version of the platform ME firmware in the following format: :.... There can be up to three such blocks for different FW components. Signed-off-by: Alexander Usyskin Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: remove dev_err message on an unsupported ioctl

2018-03-14T18:33:13+00:00

Currently the driver spams the kernel log on unsupported ioctls which is unnecessary as the ioctl returns -ENOIOCTLCMD to indicate this anyway. I suspect this was originally for debugging purposes but it really is not required so remove it. Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King Cc: stable Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mei: limit the number of queued writes

2018-03-14T18:33:13+00:00

Limit the number of queued writes per client. Writes above this threshold are blocked till place in the transmit queue is available. The limit is configurable via sysfs and defaults to 50. The implementation should provide blocking I/O behavior. Prior to this change one would end up in the hands of OOM.

vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement

2018-02-11T22:34:03+00:00

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL* variables as described by Al, done by this script: for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^$[^\"]*$$\$/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done with de-mangling cleanups yet to come. NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
