2013-12-20pstore: Don't allow high traffic options on fragile devicesLuck, Tony
Some pstore backing devices use on board flash as persistent storage. These have limited numbers of write cycles so it is a poor idea to use them from high frequency operations. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2013-12-19x86/efi: Don't select EFI from certain special ACPI driversJan Beulich
Commit 7ea6c6c1 ("Move cper.c from drivers/acpi/apei to drivers/firmware/efi") results in CONFIG_EFI being enabled even when the user doesn't want this. Since ACPI APEI used to build fine without UEFI (and as far as I know also has no functional depency on it), at least in that case using a reverse dependency is wrong (and a straight one isn't needed). Whether the same is true for ACPI_EXTLOG I don't know - if there is a functional dependency, it should depend on EFI rather than selecting it. It certainly has (currently) no build dependency. Adjust Kconfig and build logic so that the bad dependency gets avoided.

2013-11-29efi-pstore: Make efi-pstore return a unique idMadper Xie

2013-11-28efivars, efi-pstore: Hold off deletion of sysfs entry until the scan is ↵Seiji Aguchi
completed Currently, when mounting pstore file system, a read callback of efi_pstore driver runs mutiple times as below. - In the first read callback, scan efivar_sysfs_list from head and pass a kmsg buffer of a entry to an upper pstore layer. - In the second read callback, rescan efivar_sysfs_list from the entry and pass another kmsg buffer to it. - Repeat the scan and pass until the end of efivar_sysfs_list. In this process, an entry is read across the multiple read function calls. To avoid race between the read and erasion, the whole process above is protected by a spinlock, holding in open() and releasing in close(). At the same time, kmemdup() is called to pass the buffer to pstore filesystem during it. And then, it causes a following lockdep warning. To make the dynamic memory allocation runnable without taking spinlock, holding off a deletion of sysfs entry if it happens while scanning it via efi_pstore, and deleting it after the scan is completed. To implement it, this patch introduces two flags, scanning and deleting, to efivar_entry. On the code basis, it seems that all the scanning and deleting logic is not needed because __efivars->lock are not dropped when reading from the EFI variable store. But, the scanning and deleting logic is still needed because an efi-pstore and a pstore filesystem works as follows. In case an entry(A) is found, the pointer is saved to psi->data. And efi_pstore_read() passes the entry(A) to a pstore filesystem by releasing __efivars->lock. And then, the pstore filesystem calls efi_pstore_read() again and the same entry(A), which is saved to psi->data, is used for resuming to scan a sysfs-list. So, to protect the entry(A), the logic is needed.

2013-11-14Merge branch 'for-linus-dma-masks' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-armLinus Torvalds
Pull DMA mask updates from Russell King: "This series cleans up the handling of DMA masks in a lot of drivers, fixing some bugs as we go. Some of the more serious errors include: - drivers which only set their coherent DMA mask if the attempt to set the streaming mask fails. - drivers which test for a NULL dma mask pointer, and then set the dma mask pointer to a location in their module .data section - which will cause problems if the module is reloaded. To counter these, I have introduced two helper functions: - dma_set_mask_and_coherent() takes care of setting both the streaming and coherent masks at the same time, with the correct error handling as specified by the API. - dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() which resolves the problem of drivers forcefully setting DMA masks. This is more a marker for future work to further clean these locations up - the code which creates the devices really should be initialising these, but to fix that in one go along with this change could potentially be very disruptive. The last thing this series does is prise away some of Linux's addition to "DMA addresses are physical addresses and RAM always starts at zero". We have ARM LPAE systems where all system memory is above 4GB physical, hence having DMA masks interpreted by (eg) the block layers as describing physical addresses in the range 0..DMAMASK fails on these platforms. Santosh Shilimkar addresses this in this series; the patches were copied to the appropriate people multiple times but were ignored. Fixing this also gets rid of some ARM weirdness in the setup of the max*pfn variables, and brings ARM into line with every other Linux architecture as far as those go" * 'for-linus-dma-masks' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm: (52 commits) ARM: 7805/1: mm: change max*pfn to include the physical offset of memory ARM: 7797/1: mmc: Use dma_max_pfn(dev) helper for bounce_limit calculations ARM: 7796/1: scsi: Use dma_max_pfn(dev) helper for bounce_limit calculations ARM: 7795/1: mm: dma-mapping: Add dma_max_pfn(dev) helper function ARM: 7794/1: block: Rename parameter dma_mask to max_addr for blk_queue_bounce_limit() ARM: DMA-API: better handing of DMA masks for coherent allocations ARM: 7857/1: dma: imx-sdma: setup dma mask DMA-API: firmware/google/gsmi.c: avoid direct access to DMA masks DMA-API: dcdbas: update DMA mask handing DMA-API: dma: edma.c: no need to explicitly initialize DMA masks DMA-API: usb: musb: use platform_device_register_full() to avoid directly messing with dma masks DMA-API: crypto: remove last references to 'static struct device *dev' DMA-API: crypto: fix ixp4xx crypto platform device support DMA-API: others: use dma_set_coherent_mask() DMA-API: staging: use dma_set_coherent_mask() DMA-API: usb: use new dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() DMA-API: usb: use dma_set_coherent_mask() DMA-API: parport: parport_pc.c: use dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() DMA-API: net: octeon: use dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() DMA-API: net: nxp/lpc_eth: use dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() ...

2013-10-31DMA-API: firmware/google/gsmi.c: avoid direct access to DMA masksRussell King
This driver doesn't need to directly access DMA masks if it uses the platform_device_register_full() API rather than platform_device_register_simple() - the former function can initialize the DMA mask appropriately. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2013-10-31DMA-API: dcdbas: update DMA mask handingRussell King
dcdbas was explicitly initializing DMA masks thusly: dcdbas_pdev->dev.coherent_dma_mask = DMA_BIT_MASK(32); dcdbas_pdev->dev.dma_mask = &dcdbas_pdev->dev.coherent_dma_mask; which bypasses the architecture check. Moreover, it is creating the dcdbas_pdev device itself, and using the platform_device_register_full() avoids some of this explicit initialization. Convert the driver to use platform_device_register_full(), and as it makes use of coherent DMA, also call dma_set_coherent_mask() to ensure that the architecture gets to check the mask.

2013-09-05efi: x86: make efi_lookup_mapped_addr() a common functionLeif Lindholm
efi_lookup_mapped_addr() is a handy utility for other platforms than x86. Move it from arch/x86 to drivers/firmware. Add memmap pointer to global efi structure, and initialise it on x86. Signed-off-by: Leif Lindholm <leif.lindholm@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
2013-09-05efi: x86: ia64: provide a generic efi_config_init()Leif Lindholm
Common to (U)EFI support on all platforms is the global "efi" data structure, and the code that parses the System Table to locate addresses to populate that structure with. This patch adds both of these to the global EFI driver code and removes the local definition of the global "efi" data structure from the x86 and ia64 code. Squashed into one big patch to avoid breaking bisection.

The dcdbas code was "hand rolling" a binary attribute group, which the driver core now supports automatically.

The efivars code requires EFI runtime services to function, so check that they are enabled.

It is no longer specific to pseries but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no hypervisor) by Gavin Shan. - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded processors). - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace interrupts" for performance monitor events. - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs. Signals bug fixes and HW breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

2013-07-03dmi: add support for exact DMI matches in addition to substring matchingJani Nikula
dmi_match() considers a substring match to be a successful match. This is not always sufficient to distinguish between DMI data for different systems. Add support for exact string matching using strcmp() in addition to the substring matching using strstr(). The specific use case in the i915 driver is to allow us to use an exact match for D510MO, without also incorrectly matching D510MOV: { .ident = "Intel D510MO", .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Intel"), DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "D510MO"), }, } Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Cc: <annndddrr@gmail.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Cornel Panceac <cpanceac@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
