Merge tag 'driver-core-4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the set of "big" driver core patches for 4.16-rc1. The majority of the work here is in the firmware subsystem, with reworks to try to attempt to make the code easier to handle in the long run, but no functional change. There's also some tree-wide sysfs attribute fixups with lots of acks from the various subsystem maintainers, as well as a handful of other normal fixes and changes. And finally, some license cleanups for the driver core and sysfs code. All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues" * tag 'driver-core-4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (48 commits) device property: Define type of PROPERTY_ENRTY_*() macros device property: Reuse property_entry_free_data() device property: Move property_entry_free_data() upper firmware: Fix up docs referring to FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL firmware: Drop FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL Kconfig option USB: serial: keyspan: Drop firmware Kconfig options sysfs: remove DEBUG defines sysfs: use SPDX identifiers drivers: base: add coredump driver ops sysfs: add attribute specification for /sysfs/devices/.../coredump test_firmware: fix missing unlock on error in config_num_requests_store() test_firmware: make local symbol test_fw_config static sysfs: turn WARN() into pr_warn() firmware: Fix a typo in fallback-mechanisms.rst treewide: Use DEVICE_ATTR_WO treewide: Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO treewide: Use DEVICE_ATTR_RW sysfs.h: Use octal permissions component: add debugfs support bus: simple-pm-bus: convert bool SIMPLE_PM_BUS to tristate ...

ARC: [plat-hsdk] Switch DisplayLink driver from fbdev to DRM

2017-12-20T20:41:43+00:00

Currently there're 2 different implementations of the driver for DisplayLink USB2.0-to-HDMI/DVI adapters: older FBDEV and modern true DRM. We initially decided to use FBDEV version just because with it /dev/fbX is usable from user-space while in DRM version with DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION user-space cannot draw anything on a real screen, for more info read [1]. But today /dev/fbX is not that important as more and more software projects switch to use of DRI (/dev/dri/cardX). But what's even more important DRM driver allows building of complicated graphics processing chains. The most important for us is rendering of 3D on a dedicated GPU while outputting video through a simpler bitstreamer like DisplayLink. So let's use much more future-proof driver from now on.

ARC: [*defconfig] Reenable soft lock-up detector

2017-10-04T03:36:49+00:00

Commit 92e5aae45778 "kernel/watchdog: split up config options" introduced SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR which selects LOCKUP_DETECTOR instead of the latter to be selected itself. We need to adjust our defconfigs accordingly. Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: [plat-hsdk] initial port for HSDK board

2017-09-01T18:26:28+00:00

This initial port adds support of ARC HS Development Kit board with some basic features such serial port, USB, SD/MMC and Ethernet. Essentially we run Linux kernel on all 4 cores (i.e. utilize SMP) and heavily use IO Coherency for speeding-up DMA-aware peripherals. Note as opposed to other ARC boards we link Linux kernel to 0x9000_0000 intentionally because cores 1 and 3 configured with DCCM situated at our more usual link base 0x8000_0000. We still can use memory region starting at 0x8000_0000 as we reallocate DCCM in our platform code. Note that PAE remapping for DMA clients does not work due to an RTL bug, so CREG_PAE register must be programmed to all zeroes, otherwise it will cause problems with DMA to/from peripherals even if PAE40 is not used.
