Pull staging/IIO driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of staging and IIO driver updates for 5.13-rc1. Lots of little churn in here, and some larger churn as well. Major things are: - removal of wimax drivers, no one has this hardware anymore for this failed "experiment". - removal of the Google gasket driver, turns out no one wanted to maintain it or cares about it anymore, so they asked for it to be removed. - comedi finally moves out of the staging directory into drivers/comedi This is one of the oldest kernel subsystems around, being created in the 2.0 kernel days, and was one of the first things added to drivers/staging/ when that was created over 15 years ago. It should have been moved out of staging a long time ago, it's well maintained and used by loads of different devices in the real world every day. Nice to see this finally happen. - so many tiny coding style cleanups it's not funny. Perfect storm of at least 2 different intern project application deadlines combined to provide a huge number of new contributions in this area from people learning how to do kernel development.

platform/surface: Add DTX driver

2021-03-17T17:39:38+00:00

The Microsoft Surface Book series devices consist of a so-called clipboard part (containing the CPU, touchscreen, and primary battery) and a base part (containing keyboard, secondary battery, and optional discrete GPU). These parts can be separated, i.e. the clipboard can be detached and used as tablet. This detachment process is initiated by pressing a button. On the Surface Book 2 and 3 (targeted with this commit), the Surface Aggregator Module (i.e. the embedded controller on those devices) attempts to send a notification to any listening client driver and waits for further instructions (i.e. whether the detachment process should continue or be aborted). If it does not receive a response in a certain time-frame, the detachment process (by default) continues and the clipboard can be physically separated. In other words, (by default and) without a driver, the detachment process takes about 10 seconds to complete. This commit introduces a driver for this detachment system (called DTX). This driver allows a user-space daemon to control and influence the detachment behavior. Specifically, it forwards any detachment requests to user-space, allows user-space to make such requests itself, and allows handling of those requests. Requests can be handled by either aborting, continuing/allowing, or delaying (i.e. resetting the timeout via a heartbeat commend). The user-space API is implemented via the /dev/surface/dtx miscdevice. In addition, user-space can change the default behavior on timeout from allowing detachment to disallowing it, which is useful if the (optional) discrete GPU is in use. Furthermore, this driver allows user-space to receive notifications about the state of the base, specifically when it is physically removed (as opposed to detachment requested), in what manner it is connected (i.e. in reverse-/tent-/studio- or laptop-mode), and what type of base is connected. Based on this information, the driver also provides a simple tablet-mode switch (aliasing all modes without keyboard access, i.e. tablet-mode and studio-mode to its reported tablet-mode). An implementation of such a user-space daemon, allowing configuration of detachment behavior via scripts (e.g. safely unmounting USB devices connected to the base before continuing) can be found at [1].

docs: ioctl-number.rst: reserve IIO subsystem ioctl() space

2021-03-11T20:47:02+00:00

Currently, only the 'i' 0x90 ioctl() actually exists and is defined in 'include/uapi/linux/iio/events.h'. It's the IIO_GET_EVENT_FD_IOCTL, which is used to retrieve and FD for reading events from an IIO device. We will want to add more ioct() numbers, so with this change the 'i' 0x90-0x9F space is reserved for IIO ioctl() calls.

tty: cyclades, remove this orphan

2021-03-10T08:34:06+00:00

The Cyclades driver was orphaned by commit d459883e6c54 (MAINTAINERS: remove two dead e-mail) 13 years ago. Noone stepped up to take care of them and to fix all the issues the driver has. On the top of that, there is no way to obtain the firmware for Z cards from the vendor as cyclades.com ceased to exist. So it's time to drop the driver with all its traces.

Pull initial support for CXL (Compute Express Link) from Dan Williams: "Introduce an initial driver for CXL 2.0 Type-3 Memory Devices. CXL is Compute Express Link which released the 2.0 specification in November. The Linux relevant changes in CXL 2.0 are support for an OS to dynamically assign address space to memory devices, support for switches, persistent memory, and hotplug. A Type-3 Memory Device is a PCI enumerated device presenting the CXL Memory Device Class Code and implementing the CXL.mem protocol. CXL.mem allows device to advertise CPU and I/O coherent memory to the system, i.e. typical "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" in Linux /proc/iomem terms. In addition to the CXL.mem fast path there is an administrative command hardware mailbox interface for maintenance and provisioning. It is this command interface that is the focus of the initial driver. With this driver a CXL device that is mapped by the BIOS can be administered by Linux. Linux support for CXL PMEM and dynamic CXL address space management are to be implemented post v5.12" Reviewed-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 4cdadfd5e0a7 ("cxl/mem: Introduce a driver for CXL-2.0-Type-3 endpoints") 13237183c735 ("cxl/mem: Add a "RAW" send command") 472b1ce6e9d6 ("cxl/mem: Enable commands via CEL") 57ee605b976c ("cxl/mem: Add set of informational commands") Reviewed-by: Jonathan Cameron 8adaf747c9f0 ("cxl/mem: Find device capabilities") b39cb1052a5c ("cxl/mem: Register CXL memX devices") * tag 'cxl-for-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: cxl/mem: Fix potential memory leak cxl/mem: Return -EFAULT if copy_to_user() fails MAINTAINERS: Add maintainers of the CXL driver cxl/mem: Add set of informational commands cxl/mem: Enable commands via CEL cxl/mem: Add a "RAW" send command cxl/mem: Add basic IOCTL interface cxl/mem: Register CXL memX devices cxl/mem: Find device capabilities cxl/mem: Introduce a driver for CXL-2.0-Type-3 endpoints
