2008-10-20Merge branch 'genirq-v28-for-linus' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip This merges branches irq/genirq, irq/sparseirq-v4, timers/hpet-percpu and x86/uv. The sparseirq branch is just preliminary groundwork: no sparse IRQs are actually implemented by this tree anymore - just the new APIs are added while keeping the old way intact as well (the new APIs map 1:1 to irq_desc[]). The 'real' sparse IRQ support will then be a relatively small patch ontop of this - with a v2.6.29 merge target. * 'genirq-v28-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip: (178 commits) genirq: improve include files intr_remapping: fix typo io_apic: make irq_mis_count available on 64-bit too genirq: fix name space collisions of nr_irqs in arch/* genirq: fix name space collision of nr_irqs in autoprobe.c genirq: use iterators for irq_desc loops proc: fixup irq iterator genirq: add reverse iterator for irq_desc x86: move ack_bad_irq() to irq.c x86: unify show_interrupts() and proc helpers x86: cleanup show_interrupts genirq: cleanup the sparseirq modifications genirq: remove artifacts from sparseirq removal genirq: revert dynarray genirq: remove irq_to_desc_alloc genirq: remove sparse irq code genirq: use inline function for irq_to_desc genirq: consolidate nr_irqs and for_each_irq_desc() x86: remove sparse irq from Kconfig genirq: define nr_irqs for architectures with GENERIC_HARDIRQS=n ...
2008-10-20container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystemMatt Helsley
This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups framework. It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named freezer.state. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. Reading will return the current state. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space task in a simple scenario. It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete. In that case we return EBUSY. This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this time. After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read. The state will remain "FREEZING" until one of these things happens: 1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to the freezer.state file 2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal and returns EIO) 3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN" state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

2008-10-20container freezer: add TIF_FREEZE flag to all architecturesMatt Helsley
This patch series introduces a cgroup subsystem that utilizes the swsusp freezer to freeze a group of tasks. It's immediately useful for batch job management scripts. It should also be useful in the future for implementing container checkpoint/restart. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a cgroup file named freezer.state. Reading freezer.state will return the current state of the cgroup. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This patch: The first step in making the refrigerator() available to all architectures, even for those without power management. The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() in a new control group subsystem which will implement a control group freezer.

2008-10-05atmel-mci: Add experimental DMA supportHaavard Skinnemoen
This adds support for DMA transfers through the generic DMA engine framework with the DMA slave extensions. The driver has been tested using mmc-block and ext3fs on several SD, SDHC and MMC+ cards. Reads and writes work fine, with read transfer rates up to 7.5 MiB/s on fast cards with debugging disabled. Unfortunately, the driver has been known to lock up from time to time with DMA enabled, so DMA support is currently optional and marked EXPERIMENTAL. However, I didn't see any problems while testing 13 different cards (MMC, SD and SDHC of different brands and sizes), so I suspect the "Initialize BLKR before sending data transfer command" fix that was posted earlier fixed this as well.

2008-10-05atmel-mci: support multiple mmc slotsHaavard Skinnemoen
The Atmel MCI controller can drive multiple cards through separate sets of pins, but only one at a time. This patch adds support for multiplexing access to the controller so that multiple card slots can be used as if they were hooked up to separate mmc controllers. The atmel-mci driver registers each slot as a separate mmc_host. Both access the same common controller state, but they also have some state on their own for card detection/write protect handling, and separate shadows of the MR and SDCR registers. When one of the slots receives a request from the mmc core, the common controller state is checked. If it's idle, the request is submitted immediately. If not, the request is added to a queue. When a request is done, the queue is checked and if there is a queued request, it is submitted before the completion callback is called. This patch also includes a few cleanups and fixes, including a locking overhaul. I had to change the locking extensively in any case, so I might as well try to get it right. The driver no longer takes any irq-safe locks, which may or may not improve the overall system performance. This patch also adds a bit of documentation of the internal data structures.

2008-10-05atmel-mci: Platform code for supporting multiple mmc slotsHaavard Skinnemoen
Add the necessary platform infrastructure to support multiple mmc/sdcard slots all at once through a single controller. Currently, the driver will use the first valid slot it finds and stick with that, but later patches will add support for switching between several slots on the fly. Extend the platform data structure with per-slot information: MMC/SDcard bus width and card detect/write protect pins. This will affect the pin muxing as well as the capabilities announced to the mmc core. Note that board code is now required to supply a mci_platform_data struct to at32_add_device_mci().

2008-09-22avr32: Provide a way to deselect pins in the portmuxHaavard Skinnemoen
Currently, setting up the portmux is completely one-shot: Once a pin is muxed, the portmux driver will complain loudly and refuse to do anything if you try to set up the same pin again. Sometimes, it may be necessary to change the configuration of a pin after it has been set up initially. This patch adds a way to undo the previous configuration, allowing the pin to be reconfigured.

This patch adds functionality to the gpio-lib subsystem to make it possible to enable the gpio-lib code even if the architecture code didn't request to get it built in. The archtitecture code does still need to implement the gpiolib accessor functions in its asm/gpio.h file. This patch adds the implementations for x86 and PPC. With these changes it is possible to run generic GPIO expansion cards on every architecture that implements the trivial wrapper functions. Support for more architectures can easily be added.

2008-07-25gpio: sysfs interfaceDavid Brownell
This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs. /sys/class/gpio /export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace /unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low /gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO /base ... (r/o) same as N /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1) GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging. Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute. Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file, helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off" requirements that don't merit full kernel support: echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export ... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it, when that GPIO can be used as both input and output. echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport ... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed. Related changes: * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of that device instead of being "virtual" devices. * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have been updated. * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added. * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now flagged appropriately when the chip is registered. Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML. A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this merges to mainline.
