2012-11-26efi_pstore: Add a format check for an existing variable name at erasing timeSeiji Aguchi
[Issue] a format of variable name has been updated to type, id, count and ctime to support holding multiple logs. Format of current variable name dump-type0-1-2-12345678 type:0 id:1 count:2 ctime:12345678 On the other hand, if an old variable name before being updated remains, users can't erase it via /dev/pstore.

2012-11-26efi_pstore: Add a sequence counter to a variable nameSeiji Aguchi
[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which identifies each entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But if multiple events happens in a short time, a second/third event may fail to log because efi_pstore can't distinguish each event with current variable name. [Solution] A reasonable way to identify all events precisely is introducing a sequence counter to the variable name. The sequence counter has already supported in a pstore layer with "oopscount". So, this patch adds it to a variable name. Also, it is passed to read/erase callbacks of platform drivers in accordance with the modification of the variable name. <before applying this patch> a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-12345678 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678 If multiple events happen in a short time, efi_pstore can't distinguish them because variable names are same among them. <after applying this patch> it can be distinguishable by adding a sequence counter as follows. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-1-12345678 a variable name of Second event: dump-type0-1-2-12345678 type:0 id:1 sequence counter: 1(first event), 2(second event) ctime:12345678 In case of a write callback executed in pstore_console_write(), "0" is added to an argument of the write callback because it just logs all kernel messages and doesn't need to care about multiple events.

2012-11-26efi_pstore: Add ctime to argument of erase callbackSeiji Aguchi
[Issue] Currently, a variable name, which is used to identify each log entry, consists of type, id and ctime. But an erase callback does not use ctime. If efi_pstore supported just one log, type and id were enough. However, in case of supporting multiple logs, it doesn't work because it can't distinguish each entry without ctime at erasing time. <Example> As you can see below, efi_pstore can't differentiate first event from second one without ctime. a variable name of first event: dump-type0-1-12345678 a variable name of second event: dump-type0-1-23456789 type:0 id:1 ctime:12345678, 23456789 [Solution] This patch adds ctime to an argument of an erase callback. It works across reboots because ctime of pstore means the date that the record was originally stored. To do this, efi_pstore saves the ctime to variable name at writing time and passes it to pstore at reading time.

2012-11-26efi_pstore: Remove a logic erasing entries from a write callback to hold ↵Seiji Aguchi
multiple logs [Issue] Currently, efi_pstore driver simply overwrites existing panic messages in NVRAM. So, in the following scenario, we will lose 1st panic messages. 1. kernel panics. 2. efi_pstore is kicked and writes panic messages to NVRAM. 3. system reboots. 4. kernel panics again before a user checks the 1st panic messages in NVRAM. [Solution] A reasonable solution to fix the issue is just holding multiple logs without erasing existing entries. This patch removes a logic erasing existing entries in a write callback because the logic is not needed in the write callback to support holding multiple logs.

2012-11-26efi_pstore: Check remaining space with QueryVariableInfo() before writing dataSeiji Aguchi
[Issue] As discussed in a thread below, Running out of space in EFI isn't a well-tested scenario. And we wouldn't expect all firmware to handle it gracefully. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=134305325801789&w=2 On the other hand, current efi_pstore doesn't check a remaining space of storage at writing time. Therefore, efi_pstore may not work if it tries to write a large amount of data.

2012-10-30efi: Clarify GUID length calculationsJeremy Kerr
At present, the handling of GUIDs in efivar file names isn't consistent. We use GUID_LEN in some places, and 38 in others (GUID_LEN plus separator), and implicitly use the presence of the trailing NUL. This change removes the trailing NUL from GUID_LEN, so that we're explicitly adding it when required. We also replace magic numbers with GUID_LEN, and clarify the comments where appropriate. We also fix the allocation size in efivar_create_sysfs_entry, where we're allocating one byte too much, due to counting the trailing NUL twice - once when calculating short_name_size, and once in the kzalloc.

2012-10-30efi: Add support for a UEFI variable filesystemMatthew Garrett
The existing EFI variables code only supports variables of up to 1024 bytes. This limitation existed in version 0.99 of the EFI specification, but was removed before any full releases. Since variables can now be larger than a single page, sysfs isn't the best interface for this. So, instead, let's add a filesystem. Variables can be read, written and created, with the first 4 bytes of each variable representing its UEFI attributes. The create() method doesn't actually commit to flash since zero-length variables can't exist per-spec. Updates from Jeremy Kerr <jeremy.kerr@canonical.com>.

2012-01-06Merge branch 'driver-core-next' into Linux 3.2Greg Kroah-Hartman
This resolves the conflict in the arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/s3c6400.c file, and it fixes the build error in the arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c file, that the merge did not catch. The microcode_core.c patch was provided by Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> who was invaluable in the merge issues involved with the large sysdev removal process in the driver-core tree.

2011-12-13ibft: Fix finding IBFT ACPI table on UEFIYinghai Lu
Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during iscsi_ibft module loading. Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier - specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled. Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap. So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address. We could just skip that phys address printing. For legacy one, print the found address early. -v2: update comments and description according to Konrad. -v3: fix problem about module use case that is found by Konrad. -v4: use acpi_get_table() instead of acpi_table_parse() to handle module use case that is found by Konrad again..

2011-11-29ASoC: Move SigmaDSP firmware loader to ASoCLars-Peter Clausen
It has been pointed out previously, that the firmware subsystem is not the right place for the SigmaDSP firmware loader. Furthermore the SigmaDSP is currently only used in audio products and we are aiming for better integration into the ASoC framework in the future, with support for ALSA controls for firmware parameters and support dynamic power management as well. So the natural choice for the SigmaDSP firmware loader is the ASoC subsystem.
