2010-02-26V4L/DVB: V4L - vpfe capture - header files for ISIF driverMurali Karicheri
This is the header file for ISIF driver on DM365. ISIF driver is equivalent to CCDC driver on DM355 and DM644x. This driver is tested for YUV capture from TVP514x driver. This patch contains the header files required for this driver.

2010-02-26V4L/DVB: saa7115: fix saa7111a supportHans Verkuil
When the saa7111 driver was merged into saa7115 several bugs were introduced, in particular with the saa7111a support as is used in the mxb.c driver. This patch fixes the saa7111a support. This was tested with the mxb driver. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
2010-02-26V4L/DVB: saa7146_vv: fix regression where v4l2_device was registered too lateHans Verkuil
v4l2_device_register needs to be called before the i2c subdevs are loaded. However, it was called afterwards in the saa7146 driver. This caused an oops when loading the mxb and hexium drivers. The vv_init function is now split into two: one registers the v4l2_device, the other does the rest of the initialization. The three drivers that depend on this have been updated to call the new vv_devinit function. Thanks to Michael Hunold for reporting this.

2010-02-26V4L/DVB: cx25840, v4l2-subdev, ivtv, pvrusb2: Fix ivtv/cx25840 tinny audioAndy Walls
This change attempts to fix the ivtv tinny audio problem by keeping digitizer to encoder audio clocks running, while disabling the video clocks as needed to avoid unpredictable PCI bus hangs. To accomplish this, for the cx25840 module enabling of audio streaming had to be separated from enabling video streaming, requiring an additional v4l2_subdev_audio_op and calls to this new op in the pvrusb2 and ivtv drivers. The cx231xx and cx23885 driver use the cx25840 module for affecting only video on s_stream calls, so those drivers needed no change. The CX23418 hardware does not exhibit either the tinny audio problem nor the PCI bus hang, so the cx18 driver did not need corresponding changes. CX2341[56] based cards that are not using the CX2584x family of chips do not seem to be affected by the tinny audio problem, and this change should not affect how they are configured. It will delay their first capture by starting by another 300 msec though. Many thanks go to Argus <pthorn-ivtvd@styx2002.no-ip.org> and Martin Dauskardt <martin.dauskardt@gmx.de> whose persistent testing and investigation of this problem will hopefully fix this problem once and for all for many ivtv users.

2010-02-18Input: add KEY_RFKILLMatthew Garrett
Most laptops have keys that are intended to toggle all device state, not just wifi. These are currently generally mapped to KEY_WLAN. As a result, rfkill will only kill or enable wifi in response to the key press. This confuses users and can make it difficult for them to enable bluetooth and wwan devices. This patch adds a new keycode, KEY_RFKILL. It indicates that the system should toggle the state of all rfkillable devices.

2010-02-08netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix hash resizing with namespacesPatrick McHardy
As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through /sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it. Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for now as other namespaces are not handled currently. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-02-08netfilter: nf_conntrack: per netns nf_conntrack_cachepEric Dumazet
nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong. If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO) can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be observed between object freeing and its reuse. We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to its netns). If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one namespace to another one.

The counters are now updated independently, from measuring the file, in __dentry_open() and alloc_file() by calling ima_counts_get(). ima_path_check() is called from nfsd and do_filp_open(). It also did not measure all files that should have been measured. Reason: ima_path_check() got bogus value passed as mask.

Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about (un)registered events from connector. Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base and none complained, that userspace can not get notification when some other clients were (un)registered.

2010-02-01softlockup: Add sched_clock_tick() to avoid kernel warning on kgdb resumeJason Wessel
When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, sched_clock() gets the time from hardware such as the TSC on x86. In this configuration kgdb will report a softlock warning message on resuming or detaching from a debug session. Sequence of events in the problem case: 1) "cpu sched clock" and "hardware time" are at 100 sec prior to a call to kgdb_handle_exception() 2) Debugger waits in kgdb_handle_exception() for 80 sec and on exit the following is called ... touch_softlockup_watchdog() --> __raw_get_cpu_var(touch_timestamp) = 0; 3) "cpu sched clock" = 100s (it was not updated, because the interrupt was disabled in kgdb) but the "hardware time" = 180 sec 4) The first timer interrupt after resuming from kgdb_handle_exception updates the watchdog from the "cpu sched clock" update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() --> softlockup_tick() --> check (touch_timestamp == 0) (it is "YES" here, we have set "touch_timestamp = 0" at kgdb) --> __touch_softlockup_watchdog() ***(A)--> reset "touch_timestamp" to "get_timestamp()" (Here, the "touch_timestamp" will still be set to 100s.) ... scheduler_tick() ***(B)--> sched_clock_tick() (update "cpu sched clock" to "hardware time" = 180s) ... } 5) The Second timer interrupt handler appears to have a large jump and trips the softlockup warning. update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() --> softlockup_tick() --> "cpu sched clock" - "touch_timestamp" = 180s-100s > 60s --> printk "soft lockup error messages" ... } note: ***(A) reset "touch_timestamp" to "get_timestamp(this_cpu)" Why is "touch_timestamp" 100 sec, instead of 180 sec? When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, the call trace of get_timestamp() is: get_timestamp(this_cpu) -->cpu_clock(this_cpu) -->sched_clock_cpu(this_cpu) -->__update_sched_clock(sched_clock_data, now) The __update_sched_clock() function uses the GTOD tick value to create a window to normalize the "now" values. So if "now" value is too big for sched_clock_data, it will be ignored. The fix is to invoke sched_clock_tick() to update "cpu sched clock" in order to recover from this state. This is done by introducing the function touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync(). This allows kgdb to request that the sched clock is updated when the watchdog thread runs the first time after a resume from kgdb.

2010-01-30perf, hw_breakpoint, kgdb: Do not take mutex for kernel debuggerJason Wessel
This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw breakpoint reservations. The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it can start the kernel running from an invalid context. A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint reservations. The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the hardware breakpoint reservations. Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it will be a system wide reservation.
