2010-05-25mm: compaction: add /proc trigger for memory compactionMel Gorman
Add a proc file /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory. When an arbitrary value is written to the file, all zones are compacted. The expected user of such a trigger is a job scheduler that prepares the system before the target application runs.

2010-05-21ext3: make barrier options consistent with ext4Eric Sandeen
ext4 was updated to accept barrier/nobarrier mount options in addition to the older barrier=0/1. The barrier story is complex enough, we should help people by making the options the same at least, even if the defaults are different. This patch allows the barrier/nobarrier mount options for ext3, while keeping nobarrier the default. It also unconditionally displays barrier status in show_options, and prints a message at mount time if barriers are not enabled, just as ext4 does.

2010-05-20echi-dbgp: Add kernel debugger support for the usb debug portJason Wessel
This patch adds the capability to use the usb debug port with the kernel debugger. It is also still possible to use this functionality with or without the earlyprintk=dbgpX. It is possible to use the kgdbwait boot argument to debug very early in the kernel start up code. There are two ways to use this driver extension with a kernel boot argument. 1) kgdbdbgp=# -- Where # is the number of the usb debug controller You must use sysrq-g to break into the kernel debugger on another connection type other than the dbgp. 2) kgdbdbgp=#debugControlNum#,#Seconds# In this mode, the usb debug port is polled every #Seconds# for character input. It is possible to use gdb or press control-c to break into the kernel debugger. From the implementation perspective there are 3 high level changes. 1) Allow variable retries for the the hardware via dbgp_bulk_read(). The amount of retries for the dbgp_bulk_read() needed to be variable instead of fixed. We do not want to poll at all when the kernel is operating in interrupt driven mode. The polling only occurs if the kernel was booted when specifying some number of seconds via the kgdbdbgp boot argument (IE kgdbdbgp=0,1). In this case the loop count is reduced to 1 so as introduce the smallest amount of latency as possible. 2) Save the bulk IN endpoint address for use by the kgdb code. 3) The addition of the kgdb interface code. This consisted of adding in a character read function for the dbgp as well as a polling thread to allow the dbgp to interrupt the kernel execution. The rest is the typical kgdb I/O api.

2010-05-20kgdboc,keyboard: Keyboard driver for kdb with kgdbJason Wessel
This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver. This was mostly a direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb. This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard. All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the keyboard is done via kgdboc. If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you would add to your kernel command arguments: kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use: kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0 You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb. Turn it on: echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc Turn it off: echo "" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Reviewed-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

2010-05-20USB: usbserial: mos7720: add support for parallel port on moschip 7715Mike Dunn
Add support for the parallel port on the moschip MCS7715 device. The port registers itself with the parport subsystem as a low-level driver. A separate entry to the kernel configuration is added beneath that for the mos7720, to avoid the need to link with the parport subsystem code for users who don't have or don't want the parallel port. Only compatibility mode is currently supported (no ECP/EPP). Tested with both moschip devices (7720 and 7715) on UP and SMP hosts, including regression testing of serial port, concurrent operation of serial and parallel ports, and various connect / disconnect scenarios.

2010-05-20USB: Support for allocating USB 3.0 streams.Sarah Sharp
Bulk endpoint streams were added in the USB 3.0 specification. Streams allow a device driver to overload a bulk endpoint so that multiple transfers can be queued at once. The device then decides which transfer it wants to work on first, and can queue part of a transfer before it switches to a new stream. All this switching is invisible to the device driver, which just gets a completion for the URB. Drivers that use streams must be able to handle URBs completing in a different order than they were submitted to the endpoint. This requires adding new API to set up xHCI data structures to support multiple queues ("stream rings") per endpoint. Drivers will allocate a number of stream IDs before enqueueing URBs to the bulk endpoints of the device, and free the stream IDs in their disconnect function. See Documentation/usb/bulk-streams.txt for details. The new mass storage device class, USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP), uses these streams API.

2010-05-20USB: deprecate the power/level sysfs attributeAlan Stern
This patch (as1367) deprecates USB's power/level sysfs attribute in favor of the power/control attribute provided by the runtime PM core. The two attributes do the same thing. It would be nice to replace power/level with a symlink to power/control, but at the moment sysfs doesn't offer any way to do so.
