ad525x_dpot: add support for SPI parts

2010-05-25T15:07:04+00:00

Split the bus logic out into separate files so that we can handle I2C and SPI busses independently. The new SPI bus logic brings in support for a lot more parts: AD5160, AD5161, AD5162, AD5165, AD5200, AD5201, AD5203, AD5204, AD5206, AD5207, AD5231, AD5232, AD5233, AD5235, AD5260, AD5262, AD5263, AD5290, AD5291, AD5292, AD5293, AD7376, AD8400, AD8402, AD8403, ADN2850 [randy.dunlap@oracle.com: fix ad525X_dpot build] Signed-off-by: Michael Hennerich Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

VMware Balloon driver

2010-04-24T18:31:26+00:00

This is a standalone version of VMware Balloon driver. Ballooning is a technique that allows hypervisor dynamically limit the amount of memory available to the guest (with guest cooperation). In the overcommit scenario, when hypervisor set detects that it needs to shuffle some memory, it instructs the driver to allocate certain number of pages, and the underlying memory gets returned to the hypervisor. Later hypervisor may return memory to the guest by reattaching memory to the pageframes and instructing the driver to "deflate" balloon. We are submitting a standalone driver because KVM maintainer (Avi Kivity) expressed opinion (rightly) that our transport does not fit well into virtqueue paradigm and thus it does not make much sense to integrate with virtio. There were also some concerns whether current ballooning technique is the right thing. If there appears a better framework to achieve this we are prepared to evaluate and switch to using it, but in the meantime we'd like to get this driver upstream. We want to get the driver accepted in distributions so that users do not have to deal with an out-of-tree module and many distributions have "upstream first" requirement. The driver has been shipping for a number of years and users running on VMware platform will have it installed as part of VMware Tools even if it will not come from a distribution, thus there should not be additional risk in pulling the driver into mainline. The driver will only activate if host is VMware so everyone else should not be affected at all.

tsl2550: Move from i2c/chips to misc

MFGPT: move clocksource menu

2010-03-06T19:26:28+00:00

Move the CS5535 MFGPT hrtimer kconfig option to be with the other MFGPT options. This makes it easier to find and also removes it from the main "Device Drivers" menu, where it should not have been.

cs5535: CS5535_MFGPT_DEFAULT_IRQ should depend on CS5535_MFGPT

2009-12-17T23:45:30+00:00

It doesn't make much sense to have CS5535_MFGPT_DEFAULT_IRQ show up in configs that cannot have CS5535_MFGPT. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Acked-by: Andres Salomon Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

cs5535: drop the Geode-specific MFGPT/GPIO code

2009-12-15T16:53:28+00:00

With generic modular drivers handling all of this stuff, the geode-specific code can go away. The cs5535-gpio, cs5535-mfgpt, and cs5535-clockevt drivers now handle this.
