driver core: Remove redundant license text

2017-12-07T17:36:44+00:00

Now that the SPDX tag is in all driver core files, that identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all. This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never needed. No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

driver core: add SPDX identifiers to all driver core files

2017-12-07T17:36:43+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the driver core files files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart. Cc: Johannes Berg Cc: "Luis R.

drivers: flag buses which demand DMA configuration

2017-10-19T14:34:52+00:00

We do not want the common dma_configure() pathway to apply indiscriminately to all devices, since there are plenty of buses which do not have DMA capability, and if their child devices were used for DMA API calls it would only be indicative of a driver bug. However, there are a number of buses for which DMA is implicitly expected even when not described by firmware - those we whitelist with an automatic opt-in to dma_configure(), assuming that the DMA address space and the physical address space are equivalent if not otherwise specified. Commit 723288836628 ("of: restrict DMA configuration") introduced a short-term fix by comparing explicit bus types, but this approach is far from pretty, doesn't scale well, and fails to cope at all with bus drivers which may be built as modules, like host1x. Let's refine things by making that opt-in a property of the bus type, which neatly addresses those problems and lets the decision of whether firmware description of DMA capability should be optional or mandatory stay internal to the bus drivers themselves.

driver core: platform: Don't read past the end of "driver_override" buffer

2017-09-18T15:16:47+00:00

When printing the driver_override parameter when it is 4095 and 4094 bytes long, the printing code would access invalid memory because we need count+1 bytes for printing. Reject driver_override values of these lengths in driver_override_store(). This is in close analogy to commit 4efe874aace5 ("PCI: Don't read past the end of sysfs "driver_override" buffer") from Sasha Levin.

2017-07-07T19:40:27+00:00

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.13 series. Some administrativa: I have a slew of 8250 serial patches and the new IOT2040 serial+GPIO driver coming in through this tree, along with a whole bunch of Exar 8250 fixes. These are ACKed by Greg and also hit drivers/platform/* where they are ACKed by Andy Shevchenko. Speaking about drivers/platform/* there is also a bunch of ACPI stuff coming through that route, again ACKed by Andy. The MCP23S08 changes are coming in here as well. You already have the commits in your tree, so this is just a result of sharing an immutable branch between pin control and GPIO. Core: - Export add/remove for lookup tables so that modules can export GPIO descriptor tables. - Handle GPIO sleep states: it is now possible to flag that a GPIO line may loose its state during suspend/resume of the system to save power. This is used in the Wolfson Micro Arizona driver. - ACPI-based GPIO was tightened up a lot around the edges. - Use bitmap_fill() to speed up a loop. New drivers: - Exar XRA1403 SPI-based GPIO. - MVEBU driver now supports Armada 7K and 8K. - LP87565 PMIC GPIO. - Renesas R-CAR R8A7743 (RZ/G1M). - The new IOT2040 8250 serial/GPIO also comes in through this changeset. Substantial driver changes: - Seriously fix the Exar 8250 GPIO portions to work. - The MCP23S08 was moved out to a pin control driver. - Convert MEVEBU to use regmap for register access. - Drop Vulcan support from the Broadcom driver. - Serious cleanup and improvement of the mockup driver, giving us a better test coverage. Misc: - Lots of janitorial clean up. - A bunch of documentation fixes" * tag 'gpio-v4.13-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: (70 commits) serial: exar: Add support for IOT2040 device gpio-exar/8250-exar: Make set of exported GPIOs configurable platform: Accept const properties serial: exar: Factor out platform hooks gpio-exar/8250-exar: Rearrange gpiochip parenthood gpio: exar: Fix iomap request gpio-exar/8250-exar: Do not even instantiate a GPIO device for Commtech cards serial: uapi: Add support for bus termination gpio: rcar: Add R8A7743 (RZ/G1M) support gpio: gpio-wcove: Fix GPIO control register offset calculation gpio: lp87565: Add support for GPIO gpio: dwapb: fix missing first irq for edgeboth irq type MAINTAINERS: Take maintainership for GPIO ACPI support gpio: exar: Fix reading of directions and values gpio: exar: Allocate resources on behalf of the platform device gpio-exar/8250-exar: Fix passing in of parent PCI device gpio: mockup: use devm_kcalloc() where applicable gpio: mockup: add myself as author gpio: mockup: improve the error message gpio: mockup: don't return magic numbers from probe() ...

of: Add function for generating a DT modalias with a newline

2017-03-22T19:56:13+00:00

The modalias sysfs attr is lacking a newline for DT aliases on platform devices. The macio and ibmebus correctly add the newline, but open code it. Introduce a new function, of_device_modalias(), that fills the buffer with the modalias including the newline and update users of the old of_device_get_modalias function.
