2011-03-14efivars: parameterize efivarsMike Waychison
Now that we all global variable state is encapsulated by struct efivars, parameterize all functions to the efivars local to the control flow rather than at file scope. We do this by removing the variable "efivars" at file scope and move its storage down to the end of the file. Variables get at efivars by storing the efivars pointer within each efivar_entry. The "new_var" and "del_var" binary attribute files get at the efivars through the private pointer.

2011-03-02dcdbas: force SMI to happen when expectedStuart Hayes
The dcdbas driver can do an I/O write to cause a SMI to occur. The SMI handler looks at certain registers and memory locations, so the SMI needs to happen immediately. On some systems I/O writes are posted, though, causing the SMI to happen well after the "outb" occurred, which causes random failures. Following the "outb" with an "inb" forces the write to go through even if it is posted.

2011-02-25firmware: Fix unaligned memory accesses in dmi-sysfsMike Waychison
DMI entries are arranged in memory back to back with no alignment guarantees. This means that the struct dmi_header passed to callbacks from dmi_walk() itself isn't byte aligned. This causes problems on architectures that expect aligned data, such as IA64. The dmi-sysfs patchset introduced structure member accesses through this passed in dmi_header. Fix this by memcpy()ing the structures to temporary locations on stack when inspecting/copying them.

2011-02-25firmware: Expose DMI type 15 System Event LogMike Waychison
The System Event Log described by DMI entry type 15 may be backed by either memory or may be indirectly accessed via an IO index/data register pair. In order to get read access to this log, expose it in the "system_event_log" sub-directory of type 15 DMI entries, ie: /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log/raw_event_log. This commit handles both IO accessed and memory access system event logs. OEM specific access and GPNV support is explicitly not handled and we error out in the logs when we do not recognize the access method.

2011-02-25firmware: Break out system_event_log in dmi-sysfsMike Waychison
The optional type 15 entry of the DMI table describes a non-volatile storage-backed system event log. In preparation for the next commit which exposes the raw bits of the event log to userland, create a new sub-directory within the dmi entry called "system_event_log" and expose attribute files that describe the event log itself. Currently, only a single child object is permitted within a dmi_sysfs_entry. We simply point at this child from the dmi_sysfs_entry if it exists.

2011-02-25firmware: Basic dmi-sysfs supportMike Waychison
Introduce a new module "dmi-sysfs" that exports the broken out entries of the DMI table through sysfs. Entries are enumerated via dmi_walk() on module load, and are populated as kobjects rooted at /sys/firmware/dmi/entries. Entries are named "<type>-<instance>", where: <type> : is the type of the entry, and <instance> : is the ordinal count within the DMI table of that entry type. This instance is used in lieu the DMI entry's handle as no assurances are made by the kernel that handles are unique. All entries export the following attributes: length : The length of the formatted portion of the entry handle : The handle given to this entry by the firmware raw : The raw bytes of the entire entry, including the formatted portion, the unformatted (strings) portion, and the two terminating nul characters. type : The DMI entry type instance : The ordinal instance of this entry given its type. position : The position ordinal of the entry within the table in its entirety. Entries in dmi-sysfs are kobject backed members called "struct dmi_sysfs_entry" and belong to dmi_kset. They are threaded through entry_list (protected by entry_list_lock) so that we can find them at cleanup time.

2011-01-20kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERTDavid Rientjes
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.

This allows arch code could decide the way to reserve the ibft. And we should reserve ibft as early as possible, instead of BOOTMEM stage, in case the table is in RAM range and is not reserved by BIOS (this will often be the case.)

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-07Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_typeEmese Revfy
Constify struct sysfs_ops. This is part of the ops structure constification effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al. Benefits of this constification: * prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime * potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing Signed-off-by: Emese Revfy <re.emese@gmail.com> Acked-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Acked-by: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> Acked-by: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@intel.com> Acked-by: Hans J.

2010-03-06memory-hotplug: create /sys/firmware/memmap entry for new memoryakpm@linux-foundation.org
A memmap is a directory in sysfs which includes 3 text files: start, end and type. For example: start: 0x100000 end: 0x7e7b1cff type: System RAM Interface firmware_map_add was not called explicitly. Remove it and add function firmware_map_add_hotplug as hotplug interface of memmap. Each memory entry has a memmap in sysfs, When we hot-add new memory, sysfs does not export memmap entry for it. We add a call in function add_memory to function firmware_map_add_hotplug. Add a new function add_sysfs_fw_map_entry() to create memmap entry, it will be called when initialize memmap and hot-add memory.

2009-12-15firmware: only allow EDD on x86Mike Frysinger
Rather than have the EDD depend on !ia64 (and assuming that only ia64, x86, x86_64 will be including this Kconfig), have EDD depend on the only arches which can support this code. This should allow all other arches to cleanly include the firmware Kconfig. Also simplify the x86 string used by FIRMWARE_MEMMAP to match EDD.

2009-12-11firmware_class: make request_firmware_nowait more usefulJohannes Berg
Unfortunately, one cannot hold on to the struct firmware that request_firmware_nowait() hands off, which is needed in some cases. Allow this by requiring the callback to free it (via release_firmware). Additionally, give it a gfp_t parameter -- all the current users call it from a GFP_KERNEL context so the GFP_ATOMIC isn't necessary. This also marks an API break which is useful in a sense, although that is obviously not the primary purpose of this change.

2009-12-04DMI: allow omitting ident strings in DMI tablesDmitry Torokhov
The purpose of dmi->ident is twofold - it may be used by DMI callback functions when composing log messages; it is also used to determine end of DMI table in dmi_check_system() and dmi_first_match(). However, in case when callbacks are not interested in using ident at all it just wastes memory. Let's make entries with empty first match slot serve as end-of-table markers instead.
