platform_device_alloc could failed and return NULL, we should check this before call platform_device_put. Signed-off-by: Wang YanQing <udknight@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@ti.com>
2013-01-03Drivers: video: remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

2012-05-10connector/userns: replace netlink uses of cap_raised() with capable()Eric W. Biederman
In 2009 Philip Reiser notied that a few users of netlink connector interface needed a capability check and added the idiom cap_raised(nsp->eff_cap, CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to a few of them, on the premise that netlink was asynchronous. In 2011 Patrick McHardy noticed we were being silly because netlink is synchronous and removed eff_cap from the netlink_skb_params and changed the idiom to cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN). Looking at those spots with a fresh eye we should be calling capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN). The only reason I can see for not calling capable is that it once appeared we were not in the same task as the caller which would have made calling capable() impossible. In the initial user_namespace the only difference between between cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN) and capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) are a few sanity checks and the fact that capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) sets PF_SUPERPRIV if we use the capability. Since we are going to be using root privilege setting PF_SUPERPRIV seems the right thing to do. The motivation for this that patch is that in a child user namespace cap_raised(current_cap(),...) tests your capabilities with respect to that child user namespace not capabilities in the initial user namespace and thus will allow processes that should be unprivielged to use the kernel services that are only protected with cap_raised(current_cap(),..). To fix possible user_namespace issues and to just clean up the code replace cap_raised(current_cap(), CAP_SYS_ADMIN) with capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN). Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2011-03-22uvesafb,vesafb: create WC or WB PAT-entriesThomas Schlichter
with an PAT-enabled kernel, when using uvesafb or vesafb, these drivers will create uncached-minus PAT entries for the framebuffer memory because they use ioremap() (not the *_cache or *_wc variants). When the framebuffer memory intersects with the video RAM used by Xorg, the complete video RAM will be mapped uncached-minus what results in a serve performance penalty. Here are the correct MTRR entries created by uvesafb: schlicht@netbook:~$ cat /proc/mtrr reg00: base=0x000000000 ( 0MB), size= 2048MB, count=1: write-back reg01: base=0x06ff00000 ( 1791MB), size= 1MB, count=1: uncachable reg02: base=0x070000000 ( 1792MB), size= 256MB, count=1: uncachable reg03: base=0x0d0000000 ( 3328MB), size= 16MB, count=1: write-combining And here are the problematic PAT entries: schlicht@netbook:~$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/pat_memtype_list PAT memtype list: write-back @ 0x0-0x1000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fedd000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee3000-0x6fee4000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee3000-0x6fee4000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee3000-0x6fee4000 uncached-minus @ 0xd0000000-0xe0000000 <-- created by xserver-xorg uncached-minus @ 0xd0000000-0xd1194000 <-- created by uvesafb uncached-minus @ 0xf4000000-0xf4009000 uncached-minus @ 0xf4200000-0xf4400000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5000000-0xf5010000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5100000-0xf5104000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5400000-0xf5404000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5404000-0xf5405000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5404000-0xf5405000 uncached-minus @ 0xfed00000-0xfed01000 Therefore I created the attached patch for uvesafb which uses ioremap_wc() to create the correct PAT entries, as shown below: schlicht@netbook:~$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/pat_memtype_list PAT memtype list: write-back @ 0x0-0x1000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fedd000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee2000-0x6fee3000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee3000-0x6fee4000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee3000-0x6fee4000 uncached-minus @ 0x6fee3000-0x6fee4000 write-combining @ 0xd0000000-0xe0000000 write-combining @ 0xd0000000-0xd1194000 uncached-minus @ 0xf4000000-0xf4009000 uncached-minus @ 0xf4200000-0xf4400000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5000000-0xf5010000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5100000-0xf5104000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5400000-0xf5404000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5404000-0xf5405000 uncached-minus @ 0xf5404000-0xf5405000 uncached-minus @ 0xfed00000-0xfed01000 This results in a performance gain, objectively measurable with e.g. x11perf -comppixwin10 -comppixwin100 -comppixwin500: 1: x11perf_xaa.log 2: x11perf_xaa_patched.log 1 2 Operation -------- ---------------- ----------------- 124000.0 202000.0 ( 1.63) Composite 10x10 from pixmap to window 3340.0 24400.0 ( 7.31) Composite 100x100 from pixmap to window 131.0 1150.0 ( 8.78) Composite 500x500 from pixmap to window You can see the serve performance gain when composing larger pixmaps to window. The patches replace the ioremap() function with the variant matching the mtrr- parameter. To create "write-back" PAT entries, the ioremap_cache() function must be called after creating the MTRR entries, and the ioremap_cache() region must completely fit into the MTRR region, this is why the MTRR region size is now rounded up to the next power-of-two.

2010-08-11param: use ops in struct kernel_param, rather than get and set fns directlyRusty Russell
This is more kernel-ish, saves some space, and also allows us to expand the ops without breaking all the callers who are happy for the new members to be NULL. The few places which defined their own param types are changed to the new scheme (more which crept in recently fixed in following patches). Since we're touching them anyway, we change get() and set() to take a const struct kernel_param (which they really are). This causes some harmless warnings until we fix them (in following patches). To reduce churn, module_param_call creates the ops struct so the callers don't have to change (and casts the functions to reduce warnings). The modern version which takes an ops struct is called module_param_cb.

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.

2009-11-12fb: remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operationsKrzysztof Helt
Remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations from frame buffer layer. They are used only in two drivers: 1. savagefb - and cause bug #11248 2. uvesafb Usage of these operations is misunderstood in both drivers so kill these operations, fix the bug #11248 and avoid confusion in the future. Tested on Savage 3D/MV card and the patch fixes the bug #11248. The frame buffer layer uses these funtions during switch between graphics and text mode of the console, but these drivers saves state before switching of the frame buffer (in the fb_open) and after releasing it (in the fb_release). This defeats the purpose of these operations.

The connector documentation states that the argument to the callback function is always a pointer to a struct cn_msg, but rather than encode it in the API itself, it uses a void pointer everywhere. This doesn't make much sense to encode the pointer in documentation as it prevents proper C type checking from occurring and can easily allow people to use the wrong pointer type.

2009-02-05netlink: change return-value logic of netlink_broadcast()Pablo Neira Ayuso
Currently, netlink_broadcast() reports errors to the caller if no messages at all were delivered: 1) If, at least, one message has been delivered correctly, returns 0. 2) Otherwise, if no messages at all were delivered due to skb_clone() failure, return -ENOBUFS. 3) Otherwise, if there are no listeners, return -ESRCH. With this patch, the caller knows if the delivery of any of the messages to the listeners have failed: 1) If it fails to deliver any message (for whatever reason), return -ENOBUFS. 2) Otherwise, if all messages were delivered OK, returns 0. 3) Otherwise, if no listeners, return -ESRCH. In the current ctnetlink code and in Netfilter in general, we can add reliable logging and connection tracking event delivery by dropping the packets whose events were not successfully delivered over Netlink. Of course, this option would be settable via /proc as this approach reduces performance (in terms of filtered connections per seconds by a stateful firewall) but providing reliable logging and event delivery (for conntrackd) in return. This patch also changes some clients of netlink_broadcast() that may report ENOBUFS errors via printk. This error handling is not of any help. Instead, the userspace daemons that are listening to those netlink messages should resync themselves with the kernel-side if they hit ENOBUFS. BTW, netlink_broadcast() clients include those that call cn_netlink_send(), nlmsg_multicast() and genlmsg_multicast() since they internally call netlink_broadcast() and return its error value.

2008-10-16uvesafb: don't treat mode info retrieval failures as errorsMichal Januszewski
Some BIOSes return error codes when queried for information about modes from their own modelist. uvesafb treats this as an error case and bails out. Change this behavior so that broken modes do not prevent the driver from working. Only the failure to retrieve information about any usable video mode is considered to be an error case.

2008-04-28uvesafb: don't treat valid modes returned byfb_find_mode() as errorsMichal Januszewski
Don't treat valid modes returned by fb_find_mode() (best-fit modes, default modes or the first valid mode) as errors. Currently, when fb_find_mode() finds a valid mode belonging to one of the above-mentioned classes, uvesafb will ignore it and will try to set a 640x480 video mode. The expected behaviour (introduced by this patch) would be to use the valid mode returned by fb_find_mode() instead. Signed-off-by: Michal Januszewski <spock@gentoo.org> Cc: "Antonino A.

2007-10-16uvesafb: the driver coreMichal Januszewski
uvesafb is an enhanced version of vesafb. It uses a userspace helper (v86d) to execute calls to the x86 Video BIOS functions. The driver is not limited to any specific arch and whether it works on a given arch or not depends on that arch being supported by the userspace daemon. It has been tested on x86_32 and x86_64. A single BIOS call is represented by an instance of the uvesafb_ktask structure. This structure contains a buffer, a completion struct and a uvesafb_task substructure, containing the values of the x86 registers, a flags field and a field indicating the length of the buffer. Whenever a BIOS call is made in the driver, uvesafb_exec() builds a message using the uvesafb_task substructure and the contents of the buffer. This message is then assigned a random ack number and sent to the userspace daemon using the connector interface. The message's sequence number is used as an index for the uvfb_tasks array, which provides a mapping from the messages coming from userspace to the in-kernel uvesafb_ktask structs. The userspace daemon performs the requested operation and sends a reply in the form of a uvesafb_task struct and, optionally, a buffer. The seq and ack numbers in the reply should be exactly the same as those in the request. Each message from userspace is processed by uvesafb_cn_callback() and after passing a few sanity checks leads to the completion of a BIOS call request.
