2007-10-17Driver for the Atmel on-chip SSC on AT32AP and AT91Hans-Christian Egtvedt
The Synchronous Serial Controller (SSC) on Atmel microprocessors are capable of tranceiving many frame based protocols, like I2S. Tested on the AT32AP7000/ATSTK1000. This driver is used in the ALSA sound driver for the AT73C213 external DAC on the ATSTK1000 development board for AVR32. This sound driver will be submitted soon. Hardware documentation can be found in the AT32AP7000 data sheet, which can be downloaded from http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/datasheets.asp?family_id=682 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: init spinlock at compile time] Signed-off-by: Hans-Christian Egtvedt <hcegtvedt@atmel.com> Acked-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com> Cc: David Brownell <david-b@pacbell.net> Cc: Andrew Victor <andrew@sanpeople.com> Cc: Patrice Vilchez <patrice.vilchez@rfo.atmel.com> Cc: Nicolas Ferre <nicolas.ferre@rfo.atmel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-10-12Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a structKay Sievers
This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations. Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the error handling.

2007-10-09drivers/firmware: const-ify DMI API and internalsJeff Garzik
Three main sets of changes: 1) dmi_get_system_info() return value should have been marked const, since callers should not be changing that data. 2) const-ify DMI internals, since DMI firmware tables should, whenever possible, be marked const to ensure we never ever write to that data area. 3) const-ify DMI API, to enable marking tables const where possible in low-level drivers. And if we're really lucky, this might enable some additional optimizations on the part of the compiler. The bulk of the changes are #2 and #3, which are interrelated. #1 could have been a separate patch, but it was so small compared to the others, it was easier to roll it into this changeset.

2007-09-17ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED optionHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because it would create a legacy we don't want to support. CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to the ACPI core. Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline kernel, even, which is Good. This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace capabilities: Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi input devices. It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event interface, regardless of any module parameter. The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2 module parameter. The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Cc: Michael S.

2007-08-23ACPI: don't duplicate input events on netlinkZhang Rui
The previous events patch added a netlink event for every user of the legacy /proc/acpi/event interface. However, some users of /proc/acpi/event are really input events, and they already report their events via the input layer. Introduce a new interface, acpi_bus_generate_netlink_event(), which is explicitly called by devices that want to repoprt events via netlink. This allows the input-like events to opt-out of generating netlink events.

Add a module parameter that allows the user to select which strategy to use for brightness control: EC, NVRAM, or both.
