2013-05-24drivers/video: implement a simple framebuffer driverStephen Warren
A simple frame-buffer describes a raw memory region that may be rendered to, with the assumption that the display hardware has already been set up to scan out from that buffer. This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display hardware. Examples use-cases include: * The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF. * Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the Raspberry Pi. * Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process, thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.

2013-05-25cfg80211/mac80211: use cfg80211 wdev mutex in mac80211Johannes Berg
Using separate locks in cfg80211 and mac80211 has always caused issues, for example having to unlock in places in mac80211 to call cfg80211, which even needed a framework to make cfg80211 calls after some functions returned etc. Additionally, I suspect some issues people have reported with the cfg80211 state getting confused could be due to such issues, when cfg80211 is asking mac80211 to change state but mac80211 is in the process of telling cfg80211 that the state changed (in another way.)

2013-05-21mm: change invalidatepage prototype to accept lengthLukas Czerner
Currently there is no way to truncate partial page where the end truncate point is not at the end of the page. This is because it was not needed and the functionality was enough for file system truncate operation to work properly. However more file systems now support punch hole feature and it can benefit from mm supporting truncating page just up to the certain point. Specifically, with this functionality truncate_inode_pages_range() can be changed so it supports truncating partial page at the end of the range (currently it will BUG_ON() if 'end' is not at the end of the page). This commit changes the invalidatepage() address space operation prototype to accept range to be invalidated and update all the instances for it. We also change the block_invalidatepage() in the same way and actually make a use of the new length argument implementing range invalidation. Actual file system implementations will follow except the file systems where the changes are really simple and should not change the behaviour in any way .Implementation for truncate_page_range() which will be able to accept page unaligned ranges will follow as well.

2013-05-22libata: Add atapi_dmadir force flagVincent Pelletier
Some device require DMADIR to be enabled, but are not detected as such by atapi_id_dmadir. One such example is "Asus Serillel 2" SATA-host-to-PATA-device bridge: the bridge itself requires DMADIR, even if the bridged device does not. As atapi_dmadir module parameter can cause problems with some devices (as per Tejun Heo's memory), enabling it globally may not be possible depending on the hardware. This patch adds atapi_dmadir in the form of a "force" horkage value, allowing global, per-bus and per-device control.

2013-05-21drivers: memory: Introduce Marvell EBU Device Bus driverEzequiel Garcia
Marvell EBU SoCs such as Armada 370/XP, Orion5x (88f5xxx) and Discovery (mv78xx0) supports a Device Bus controller to access several kinds of memories and I/O devices (NOR, NAND, SRAM, FPGA). This commit adds a driver to handle this controller. So far only Armada 370, Armada XP and Discovery SoCs are supported. The driver must be registered through a device tree node; as explained in the binding document. For each child node in the device tree, this driver will: * set timing parameters * register a child device * setup an address decoding window, using the mbus driver Keep in mind the address decoding window setup is only a temporary hack. This code will be removed from this devbus driver as soon as a proper device tree binding for the mbus driver is added.

2013-05-20pci: PCIe driver for Marvell Armada 370/XP systemsThomas Petazzoni
This driver implements the support for the PCIe interfaces on the Marvell Armada 370/XP ARM SoCs. In the future, it might be extended to cover earlier families of Marvell SoCs, such as Dove, Orion and Kirkwood. The driver implements the hw_pci operations needed by the core ARM PCI code to setup PCI devices and get their corresponding IRQs, and the pci_ops operations that are used by the PCI core to read/write the configuration space of PCI devices. Since the PCIe interfaces of Marvell SoCs are completely separate and not linked together in a bus, this driver sets up an emulated PCI host bridge, with one PCI-to-PCI bridge as child for each hardware PCIe interface. In addition, this driver enumerates the different PCIe slots, and for those having a device plugged in, it sets up the necessary address decoding windows, using the mvebu-mbus driver.

2013-05-21pinctrl: Add pinctrl-s3c24xx driverHeiko Stuebner
The s3c24xx pins follow a similar pattern as the other Samsung SoCs and can therefore reuse the already introduced infrastructure. The s3c24xx SoCs have one design oddity in that the first 4 external interrupts do not reside in the eint pending register but in the main interrupt controller instead. We solve this by forwarding the external interrupt from the main controller into the irq domain of the pin bank. The masking/acking of these interrupts is handled in the same way. Furthermore the S3C2412/2413 SoCs contain another oddity in that they keep the same 4 eints in the main interrupt controller and eintpend register and requiring ack operations to happen in both. This is solved by using different compatible properties for the wakeup eint node which set a property accordingly.

2013-05-17ARM: tegra: finalize USB EHCI and PHY bindingsVenu Byravarasu
The existing Tegra USB bindings have a few issues: 1) Many properties are documented as being part of the EHCI controller node, yet they apply more to the PHY device. They should be moved. 2) Some registers in PHY1 are shared with PHY3, and hence PHY3 needs a reg entry to point at PHY1's register space. We can't assume the PHY1 driver is present, so the PHY3 driver will directly access those registers. 3) The list of clocks required by the PHY was missing some required entries. 4) UTMI PHY Timing parameters are added 5) VBUS control is now specified using a regulator rather than a plain GPIO 6) Added nvidia,is-wired property to indicate whether the device is hard wired on the board, or pluggable.

Don't describe bcache_available_percent as free space but as non-writeback space. Describe priority_stats in more detail and point to that for total bcache occupation. Signed-off-by: Gabriel de Perthuis <g2p.code+bcache@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>
2013-05-14blk-throttle: implement proper hierarchy supportTejun Heo
With the recent updates, blk-throttle is finally ready for proper hierarchy support. Dispatching now honors service_queue->parent_sq and propagates correctly. The only thing missing is setting ->parent_sq correctly so that throtl_grp hierarchy matches the cgroup hierarchy. This patch updates throtl_pd_init() such that service_queues form the same hierarchy as the cgroup hierarchy if sane_behavior is enabled. As this concludes proper hierarchy support for blkcg, the shameful .broken_hierarchy tag is removed from blkio_subsys. v2: Updated blkio-controller.txt as suggested by Vivek.

2013-05-14workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueuesViresh Kumar
Workqueues can be performance or power-oriented. Currently, most workqueues are bound to the CPU they were created on. This gives good performance (due to cache effects) at the cost of potentially waking up otherwise idle cores (Idle from scheduler's perspective. Which may or may not be physically idle) just to process some work. To save power, we can allow the work to be rescheduled on a core that is already awake. Workqueues created with the WQ_UNBOUND flag will allow some power savings. However, we don't change the default behaviour of the system. To enable power-saving behaviour, a new config option CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT needs to be turned on. This option can also be overridden by the workqueue.power_efficient boot parameter. tj: Updated config description and comments. Renamed CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT to CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT_DEFAULT.
