2017-04-20PCI: Add pci_mmap_resource_range() and use it for ARM64David Woodhouse1-3/+7
Starting to leave behind the legacy of the pci_mmap_page_range() interface which takes "user-visible" BAR addresses. This takes just the resource and offset. For now, both APIs coexist and depending on the platform, one is implemented as a wrapper around the other.

2017-04-18PCI: Add arch_can_pci_mmap_io() on architectures which can mmap() I/O spaceDavid Woodhouse1-1/+2
This is relatively esoteric, and knowing that we don't have it makes life easier in some cases rather than just an eventual -EINVAL from pci_mmap_page_range(). Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
2017-04-18PCI: Add arch_can_pci_mmap_wc() macroDavid Woodhouse1-0/+4
Most of the almost-identical versions of pci_mmap_page_range() silently ignore the 'write_combine' argument and give uncached mappings. Yet we allow the PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE ioctl in /proc/bus/pci, expose the 'resourceX_wc' file in sysfs, and allow an attempted mapping to apparently succeed. To fix this, introduce a macro arch_can_pci_mmap_wc() which indicates whether the platform can do a write-combining mapping. On x86 this ends up being pat_enabled(), while the few other platforms that support it can just set it to a literal '1'.

2016-11-22PCI: Create revision file in sysfsEmil Velikov1-0/+2
Currently the revision isn't available via sysfs/libudev thus if one wants to know the value one needs to read through the config file, which can be quite time-consuming because it wakes/powers up the device. There are at least two userspace components which could make use the new file: libpciaccess and libdrm. The former wakes up _every_ PCI device, which can be observed via glxinfo when using Mesa 10.0+ drivers. The latter, in association with Mesa 13.0, can lead to 2-3 second delays while starting firefox, thunderbird or chromium.

2010-07-30PCI: Allow read/write access to sysfs I/O port resourcesAlex Williamson1-2/+5
PCI sysfs resource files currently only allow mmap'ing. On x86 this works fine for memory backed BARs, but doesn't work at all for I/O port backed BARs. Add read/write to I/O port PCI sysfs resource files to allow userspace access to these device regions.

2009-03-21PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../removeAlex Chiang1-0/+10
This patch adds an attribute named "remove" to a PCI device's sysfs directory. Writing a non-zero value to this attribute will remove the PCI device and any children of it. Trent Piepho wrote the original implementation and documentation. Thanks to Vegard Nossum for testing under kmemcheck and finding locking issues with the sysfs interface.

2009-02-05PCI: return error on failure to read PCI ROMsTimothy S. Nelson1-1/+12
This patch makes the ROM reading code return an error to user space if the size of the ROM read is equal to 0. The patch also emits a warnings if the contents of the ROM are invalid, and documents the effects of the "enable" file on ROM reading. Signed-off-by: Timothy S.

2006-01-09[PATCH] PCI: document sysfs rom file interfaceJesse Barnes1-6/+15
idr gently pointed out today that not only is the sysfs rom file interface somewhat unintuitive (despite my efforts and initial implementation), but it's also undocumented! This patch to Documentation/filesystems/sysfs-pci.txt corrects the latter problem; the former is a userland ABI now though, so we're stuck with it for awhile at least.

2005-05-18[PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_stateDavid Brownell1-4/+2
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that: - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive; - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing; - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type; - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts; - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace. This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

2005-04-17Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+88
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
