2012-08-17PM / Sleep: introduce dpm_for_each_devMing Lei1-0/+5
dpm_list and its pm lock provide a good way to iterate all devices in system. Except this way, there is no other easy way to iterate devices in system. firmware loader need to cache firmware images for devices before system sleep, so introduce the function to meet its demand.

2012-08-17driver core: devres: introduce devres_for_each_resMing Lei1-0/+4
This patch introduces one devres API of devres_for_each_res so that the device's driver can iterate each resource it has interest in.

2012-08-17firmware loader: introduce cache_firmware and uncache_firmwareMing Lei1-0/+12
This patches introduce two kernel APIs of cache_firmware and uncache_firmware, both of which take the firmware file name as the only parameter. So any drivers can call cache_firmware to cache the specified firmware file into kernel memory, and can use the cached firmware in situations which can't request firmware from user space.

2012-08-17firmware loader: always let firmware_buf own the pages bufferMing Lei1-0/+3
This patch always let firmware_buf own the pages buffer allocated inside firmware_data_write, and add all instances of firmware_buf into the firmware cache global list. Also introduce one private field in 'struct firmware', so release_firmware will see the instance of firmware_buf associated with the current firmware instance, then just 'free' the instance of firmware_buf. The firmware_buf instance represents one pages buffer for one firmware image, so lots of firmware loading requests can share the same firmware_buf instance if they request the same firmware image file. This patch will make implementation of the following cache_firmware/ uncache_firmware very easy and simple. In fact, the patch improves request_formware/release_firmware: - only request userspace to write firmware image once if several devices share one same firmware image and its drivers call request_firmware concurrently.

This driver is a replacement for a MAX3107 driver with a lot of improvements and new features. The main differences from the old version: - Using the regmap. - Using devm_XXX-related functions. - The use of threaded IRQ with IRQF_ONESHOT flag allows the driver to the hardware that supports only level IRQ. - Improved error handling of serial port, improved FIFO handling, improved hardware & software flow control. - Advanced flags allows turn on RS-485 mode (Auto direction control). - Ability to load multiple instances of drivers. - Added support for MAX3108. - GPIO support. - Driver is quite ready for adding I2C support and support other ICs with compatible registers set (MAX3109, MAX14830).

2012-08-16platform: Add support for automatic device IDsJean Delvare1-0/+4
Right now we have support for explicit platform device IDs, as well as ID-less platform devices when a given device type can only have one instance. However there are cases where multiple instances of a device type can exist, and their IDs aren't (and can't be) known in advance and do not matter. In that case we need automatic device IDs to avoid device name collisions. I am using magic ID value -2 (PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO) for this, similar to -1 for ID-less devices. The automatically allocated device IDs are global (to avoid an additional per-driver cost.) We keep note that the ID was automatically allocated so that it can be freed later. Note that we also restore the ID to PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO on error and device deletion, to avoid avoid unexpected behavior on retry. I don't really expect retries on platform device addition, but better safe than sorry. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2012-08-15time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputsJohn Stultz2-9/+20
Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the year 2262). Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are injected via adjtimex. So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid negative value or one that overflows ktime_t. Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

2012-08-15netlink: Make the sending netlink socket availabe in NETLINK_CBEric W. Biederman1-0/+1
The sending socket of an skb is already available by it's port id in the NETLINK_CB. If you want to know more like to examine the credentials on the sending socket you have to look up the sending socket by it's port id and all of the needed functions and data structures are static inside of af_netlink.c. So do the simple thing and pass the sending socket to the receivers in the NETLINK_CB. I intend to use this to get the user namespace of the sending socket in inet_diag so that I can report uids in the context of the process who opened the socket, the same way I report uids in the contect of the process who opens files.

2012-08-15userns: Make seq_file's user namespace accessibleEric W. Biederman1-0/+14
struct file already has a user namespace associated with it in file->f_cred->user_ns, unfortunately because struct seq_file has no struct file backpointer associated with it, it is difficult to get at the user namespace in seq_file context. Therefore add a helper function seq_user_ns to return the associated user namespace and a user_ns field to struct seq_file to be used in implementing seq_user_ns.

Switch to the new driver allocation interface, as this is one of the special call-sites. Here, we need TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_ALLOC to not allocate tty_driver->ports, cdevs and potentially other structures because we reserve too many lines in pty. Instead, it provides the tty_port<->tty_struct link in tty->ops->install already.

2012-08-14workqueue: fix CPU binding of flush_delayed_work[_sync]()Tejun Heo1-0/+1
delayed_work encodes the workqueue to use and the last CPU in delayed_work->work.data while it's on timer. The target CPU is implicitly recorded as the CPU the timer is queued on and delayed_work_timer_fn() queues delayed_work->work to the CPU it is running on. Unfortunately, this leaves flush_delayed_work[_sync]() no way to find out which CPU the delayed_work was queued for when they try to re-queue after killing the timer. Currently, it chooses the local CPU flush is running on. This can unexpectedly move a delayed_work queued on a specific CPU to another CPU and lead to subtle errors. There isn't much point in trying to save several bytes in struct delayed_work, which is already close to a hundred bytes on 64bit with all debug options turned off. This patch adds delayed_work->cpu to remember the CPU it's queued for. Note that if the timer is migrated during CPU down, the work item could be queued to the downed global_cwq after this change. As a detached global_cwq behaves like an unbound one, this doesn't change much for the delayed_work.
