5410ecc0de kbuild: introduce $(kecho) convenience echo
There is a bunch of places in the build system where we do 'echo' to show
some nice status lines.  This means we still get output when running in
silent mode.  So declare a new KECHO variable that only does 'echo' when we
are in a suitable verbose build mode.

1d678f365d DMA-API.txt: fix description of pci_map_sg/dma_map_sg scatterlists handling
- pci_map_sg/dma_map_sg are used with a scatter gather list that doesn't
  come from the block layer (e.g.  some network drivers do).

- how IOMMUs merge adjacent elements of the scatter/gather list is
  independent of how the block layer determines sees elements.

7ef9964e6d epoll: introduce resource usage limits
It has been thought that the per-user file descriptors limit would also
limit the resources that a normal user can request via the epoll
interface.  Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified
version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large
amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds.  To
solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based
configuration has been introduced.  A new directory has been created,
named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration
points:

  max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user

  max_user_watches   = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user

The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll
to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM.  As example, a
256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000.
That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users.  The
default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be
enough too.

This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out
from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC).  The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already
listed, so that should be ok.

c072c24975 ftrace: improve documentation
Impact: extend documentation with notice of using wild cards correctly

We know that we can use wild cards to set set_ftrace_filter, but there's
problem when using them naively such as:

   echo h* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

If there are files named with "h" prefix in current directory,
echo "h*" will echo these filenames to set_ftrace_filter, not the
intended "h*".

For example:

  $ cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions |grep ^hr |wc -l
  23
  $ ls
  $ touch hraa hrdd
  $ ls
  hraa  hrdd
  $ echo hr* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
  $ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

No output in /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter!

If we use '' to escape wild cards, it works:

  $ ls
  hraa  hrdd
  $ echo "hr*" > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
  $ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter |wc -l
  23

This problem can lead to unexpected result if current directory has a
lot of files.

df4fc31558 ftrace: add function tracing to single thread
Impact: feature to function trace a single thread

This patch adds the ability to function trace a single thread.
The file:

  /debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_pid

contains the pid to trace. Valid pids are any positive integer.
Writing any negative number to this file will disable the pid
tracing and the function tracer will go back to tracing all of
threads.

This feature works with both static and dynamic function tracing.

ef8ef5fb10 ALSA: hda: Added an ALC888 model entry for Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Xa3530
This patch fixes the bug 0004240: ALC888 - Intel HDA - Headphone Controlling.
It is made against the 2008-11-23 snapshot.

Added Realtek ALC888 model entry for the Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Xa3530
laptop. It has 4 jacks: HP out, Mic-in, Line-in and Line-out/Side/SPDIF
(this one is on the laptop side, the other ones are on the rear).

Model detection works.
Headphone jack sense works now.
Front mic works now, was same as Acer Aspire 4930G.
Added channel mode from 2 to 8 channels.

In 2ch and 4ch modes, the front is also sent to the Line-out/side jack
for convenience instead of just muting the Line-out/side jack like other
models do.

When using the Mic-in jack as CLFE, the sound is very low (bug?). To
work it around, in 6ch mode the CLFE channel is duplicated to the
Line-out/side jack because this one has a better amp.

b54d3de9f3 tracing: identify which executable object the userspace address belongs to
Impact: modify+improve the userstacktrace tracing visualization feature

Store thread group leader id, and use it to lookup the address in the
process's map. We could have looked up the address on thread's map,
but the thread might not exist by the time we are called. The process
might not exist either, but if you are reading trace_pipe, that is
unlikely.

Example usage:

 mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
 cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
 echo sym-userobj >iter_ctrl
 echo sched_switch >current_tracer
 echo 1 >tracing_enabled
 cat trace_pipe >/tmp/trace&
 .... run application ...
 echo 0 >tracing_enabled
 cat /tmp/trace

You'll see stack entries like:

   /lib/libpthread-2.7.so[+0xd370]

You can convert them to function/line using:

   addr2line -fie /lib/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370

Or:

   addr2line -fie /usr/lib/debug/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370

For non-PIC/PIE executables this won't work:

   a.out[+0x73b]

You need to run the following: addr2line -fie a.out 0x40073b
(where 0x400000 is the default load address of a.out)

875065491f ASoC: Rename snd_soc_card to snd_soc_machine
One of the issues with the ASoC v1 API which has been addressed in the
ASoC v2 work that Liam Girdwood has done is that the ALSA card provided
by ASoC is distributed around the ASoC structures. For example, machine
wide data such as the struct snd_card are maintained as part of the
CODEC data structure, preventing the use of multiple codecs. This has
been addressed by refactoring the data structures so that all the data
for the ALSA card is contained in a single structure snd_soc_card which
replaces the existing snd_soc_machine and snd_soc_device.

Begin the process of backporting this by renaming struct snd_soc_machine
to struct snd_soc_card, better reflecting its function and bringing it
closer to standard ALSA terminology.

6fae35f9ce uwb: add basic radio manager
The UWB radio manager coordinates the use of the radio between the
PALs that may be using it.  PALs request use of the radio with
uwb_radio_start() and the radio manager will start beaconing if its
not already doing so.  When the last PAL has called uwb_radio_stop()
beaconing will be stopped.

In the future, the radio manager will have a more sophisticated channel
selection algorithm, probably following the Channel Selection Policy
from the WiMedia Alliance when it is finalized.  For now, channel 9
(BG1, TFC1) is selected.

The user may override the channel selected by the radio manager and may
force the radio to stop beaconing.

The WUSB Host Controller PAL makes use of this and there are two new
debug PAL commands that can be used for testing.

dd9c0e363c dccp: Deprecate Ack Ratio sysctl
This patch deprecates the Ack Ratio sysctl, since
 * Ack Ratio is entirely ignored by CCID-3 and CCID-4,
 * Ack Ratio currently doesn't work in CCID-2 (i.e. is always set to 1);
 * even if it would work in CCID-2, there is no point for a user to change it:
   - Ack Ratio is constrained by cwnd (RFC 4341, 6.1.2),
   - if Ack Ratio > cwnd, the system resorts to spurious RTO timeouts
     (since waiting for Acks which will never arrive in this window),
   - cwnd is not a user-configurable value.

The only reasonable place for Ack Ratio is to print it for debugging. It is
planned to do this later on, as part of e.g. dccp_probe.

With this patch Ack Ratio is now under full control of feature negotiation:
 * Ack Ratio is resolved as a dependency of the selected CCID;
 * if the chosen CCID supports it (i.e. CCID == CCID-2), Ack Ratio is set to
   the default of 2, following RFC 4340, 11.3 - "New connections start with Ack
   Ratio 2 for both endpoints";
 * what happens then is part of another patch set, since it concerns the
   dynamic update of Ack Ratio while the connection is in full flight.

Thanks to Tomasz Grobelny for discussion leading up to this patch.

Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users.

Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint
structure in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory
consumption, especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for
kmalloc tracing.

*API CHANGE WARNING*: now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for
tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way
to do it. The name previously used was misleading.

Allow markers to be used only for declaration, without function call
associated. Useful to create specialized probes.

The problem we had is that two function calls were required when one
wanted to put a marker in a tracepoint probe. Now the marker can be used
simply for trace data type declaration, leaving the trace write work
within the tracepoint probe without any additional function call.

a94c80e78b ftrace: rename trace_entries to buffer_size_kb
Impact: rename of debugfs file trace_entries to buffer_size_kb

The original ftrace had fixed size entries, and the number of entries
was shown and modified via the file called trace_entries. By converting
to the unified trace buffer, we now allow for variable size entries
which makes the meaning of trace_entries pointless.

Since trace_size might be confused to the size of the trace, this patch
names it "buffer_size_kb" (thanks to Arjan van de Ven for this idea).

[ mingo@elte.hu: changed from buffer_size to buffer_size_kb ]

( Note, the units are still bytes - the next patch changes that,
  to keep the wide rename patch separate from the unit-change patch. )

This adds a driver to the accelerometer sensor found in several HP
laptops (under the commercial names of "HP Mobile Data Protection System
3D" and "HP 3D driveguard").  It tries to have more or less the same
interfaces as the hdaps and other accelerometer drivers: in sysfs and as
a joystick.

This driver was first written by Yan Burman.  Eric Piel has updated it
and slimed it up (including the removal of an interface to access to the
free-fall feature of the sensor because it is not reliable enough for
now).  Pavel Machek removed few more features and switched locking from
semaphore to mutex.

Several people have contributed to the database of the axes.

3b1b3f6e57 freezer_cg: disable writing freezer.state of root cgroup
With this change, control file 'freezer.state' doesn't exist in root
cgroup, making root cgroup unfreezable.

I think it's reasonable to disallow freeze tasks in the root cgroup.  And
then we can avoid fork overhead when freezer subsystem is compiled but not
used.

Also make writing invalid value to freezer.state returns EINVAL rather
than EIO.  This is more consistent with other cgroup subsystem.

d90ebcbfa7 dccp: Query supported CCIDs
This provides a data structure to record which CCIDs are locally supported
and three accessor functions:
 - a test function for internal use which is used to validate CCID requests
   made by the user;
 - a copy function so that the list can be used for feature-negotiation;   
 - documented getsockopt() support so that the user can query capabilities.

The data structure is a table which is filled in at compile-time with the
list of available CCIDs (which in turn depends on the Kconfig choices).

Using the copy function for cloning the list of supported CCIDs is useful for
feature negotiation, since the negotiation is now with the full list of available
CCIDs (e.g. {2, 3}) instead of the default value {2}. This means negotiation 
will not fail if the peer requests to use CCID3 instead of CCID2.

Commit a6523748bd

changed address space without changing the documentation.

Change it according to the code change -- direct mapping start:

Commit d0fc2eaaf4 "powerpc/fsl: Refactor

booting-without-of.txt into separate files.  Having them all in one file
was a frequent source of merge conflicts.

However, in the next merge, 49997d7515, there
was another conflict.  Some of the bindings removed from
booting-without-of.txt were mistakenly added back in and the copies in
dts-bindings were kept as well.

This patch re-removes "Freescale Display Interface" and "Freescale on board

c3d6de698c ACPI video: if no ACPI backlight support, use vendor drivers
If an ACPI graphics device supports backlight brightness functions (cmp. with
latest ACPI spec Appendix B), let the ACPI video driver control backlight and
switch backlight control off in vendor specific ACPI drivers (asus_acpi,
thinkpad_acpi, eeepc, fujitsu_laptop, msi_laptop, sony_laptop, acer-wmi).

Currently it is possible to load above drivers and let both poke on the
brightness HW registers, the video and vendor specific ACPI drivers -> bad.

This patch provides the basic support to check for BIOS capabilities before
driver loading time. Driver specific modifications are in separate follow up
patches.

dfc209c006 fat: Fix ATTR_RO for directory
FAT has the ATTR_RO (read-only) attribute. But on Windows, the ATTR_RO
of the directory will be just ignored actually, and is used by only
applications as flag. E.g. it's setted for the customized folder by
Explorer.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa969337.aspx

This adds "rodir" option. If user specified it, ATTR_RO is used as
read-only flag even if it's the directory. Otherwise, inode->i_mode
is not used to hold ATTR_RO (i.e. fat_mode_can_save_ro() returns 0).

fd989c8332 bonding: alternate agg selection policies for 802.3ad
This patch implements alternative aggregator selection policies
for 802.3ad.  The existing policy, now termed "stable," selects the active
aggregator by greatest bandwidth, and only reselects a new aggregator
if the active aggregator is entirely disabled (no more ports or all ports
down).

	This patch adds two new policies: bandwidth and count, selecting
the active aggregator by total bandwidth (like the stable policy) or by
the number of ports in the aggregator, respectively.  These two policies
also differ from the stable policy in that they will reselect the active
aggregator when availability-related changes occur in the bond (e.g.,
link state change).

	This permits "gang failover" within 802.3ad, allowing redundant
aggregators along parallel paths to always maintain the "best" aggregator
as the active aggregator (rather than having to wait for the active to
entirely fail).

	This patch also updates the driver version to 3.5.0.

305d552acc bonding: send IPv6 neighbor advertisement on failover
This patch adds better IPv6 failover support for bonding devices,
especially when in active-backup mode and there are only IPv6 addresses
configured, as reported by Alex Sidorenko.

- Creates a new file, net/drivers/bonding/bond_ipv6.c, for the
   IPv6-specific routines.  Both regular bonds and VLANs over bonds
   are supported.

- Adds a new tunable, num_unsol_na, to limit the number of unsolicited
   IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements that are sent on a failover event.
   Default is 1.

- Creates two new IPv6 neighbor discovery functions:

   ndisc_build_skb()
   ndisc_send_skb()

   These were required to support VLANs since we have to be able to
   add the VLAN id to the skb since ndisc_send_na() and friends
   shouldn't be asked to do this.  These two routines are basically
   __ndisc_send() split into two pieces, in a slightly different order.

- Updates Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and bumps the rev of bond
   support to 3.4.0.

On failover, this new code will generate one packet:

- An unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisement, which helps the switch
   learn that the address has moved to the new slave.

Testing has shown that sending just the NA results in pretty good
behavior when in active-back mode, I saw no lost ping packets for example.

1f29fae297 file capabilities: add no_file_caps switch (v4)
Add a no_file_caps boot option when file capabilities are
compiled into the kernel (CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y).

This allows distributions to ship a kernel with file capabilities
compiled in, without forcing users to use (and understand and
trust) them.

When no_file_caps is specified at boot, then when a process executes
a file, any file capabilities stored with that file will not be
used in the calculation of the process' new capability sets.

This means that booting with the no_file_caps boot option will
not be the same as booting a kernel with file capabilities
compiled out - in particular a task with  CAP_SETPCAP will not
have any chance of passing capabilities to another task (which
isn't "really" possible anyway, and which may soon by killed
altogether by David Howells in any case), and it will instead
be able to put new capabilities in its pI.  However since fI
will always be empty and pI is masked with fI, it gains the
task nothing.

We also support the extra prctl options, setting securebits and
dropping capabilities from the per-process bounding set.

The other remaining difference is that killpriv, task_setscheduler,
setioprio, and setnice will continue to be hooked.  That will
be noticable in the case where a root task changed its uid
while keeping some caps, and another task owned by the new uid
tries to change settings for the more privileged task.

Changelog:
	Nov 05 2008: (v4) trivial port on top of always-start-\
		with-clear-caps patch
	Sep 23 2008: nixed file_caps_enabled when file caps are
		not compiled in as it isn't used.

There are actually two variants of ALC268 Acer implementation, one
with an analog built-in mic (pin 0x19) and another with a digital
mic (pin 0x12).  Created a new model, acer-dmic, for the latter case
now.

So far, all known models are assigned to be analog-mic, according to
the BIOS setup.  If this doesn't match with the actual case, one needs
to try model=acer-dmic, and fix the entry to point ALC268_ACER_DMIC
if it works.

Impact: documentation update

1) nmi_watchdog boot parameter is common to 32/64 bit modes. So
   move it from Documentation/x86/x86_64/boot-options.txt to
   Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt and integrate with.

2) Also fix [panic] keyword placement -- it ought to be at first
   position otherwise it will not be recognized.

3) Document lapic and ioapic keywords.

395628ef4e x86: Skip verification by the watchdog for TSC clocksource.
Impact: Changes timekeeping on Vmware (or with tsc=reliable).

This is achieved by resetting the CLOCKSOURCE_MUST_VERIFY flag.

We add a tsc=reliable commandline option to enable this.
This enables legacy hardware without HPET, LAPIC, or ACPI timers
to enter high-resolution timer mode.

Along with that have extended this to be used in virtualization environement
too. Now we also set this flag if the X86_FEATURE_TSC_RELIABLE bit is set.

This is important since there is a wrap-around problem with the acpi_pm timer.
The acpi_pm counter is just 24bits and this can overflow in ~4 seconds. With
the NO_HZ kernels in virtualized environment, there can be situations when
the guest is descheduled for longer duration, as a result we may miss the wrap
of the acpi counter. When TSC is used as a clocksource and acpi_pm timer is
being used as the watchdog clocksource this error in acpi_pm results in TSC
being marked as unstable, and essentially results in time dropping in chunks
of 4 seconds whenever this wrap is missed. Since the virtualized TSC is
reliable on VMware, we should always use the TSCs clocksource on VMware, so
we skip the verfication at runtime, by checking for the feature bit.

Since we reset the flag for mgeode systems too, i have combined
the mgeode case with the feature bit check.

d003922dab rfkill: add master_switch_mode and EPO lock to rfkill and rfkill-input
Add of software-based sanity to rfkill and rfkill-input so that it can
reproduce what hardware-based EPO switches do, blocking all transmitters
and locking down any further attempts to unblock them until the switch is
deactivated.

rfkill-input is responsible for issuing the EPO control requests, like
before.

While an rfkill EPO is active, all transmitters are locked to one of the
BLOCKED states and all attempts to change that through the rfkill API
(userspace and kernel) will be either ignored or return -EPERM errors.

The lock will be released upon receipt of EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON by
rfkill-input, or should modular rfkill-input be unloaded.

This makes rfkill and rfkill-input extend the operation of an existing
wireless master kill switch to all wireless devices in the system, even
those that are not under hardware or firmware control.

Since the above is the expected operational behavior for the master rfkill
switch, the EPO lock functionality is not optional.

Also, extend rfkill-input to allow for three different behaviors when it
receives an EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON input event.  The user can set which
behavior he wants through the master_switch_mode parameter:

master_switch_mode = 0: EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON just unlocks rfkill
controller state changes (so that the rfkill userspace and kernel APIs can
now be used to change rfkill controller states again), but doesn't change
any of their states (so they will all remain blocked).  This is the safest
mode of operation, as it requires explicit operator action to re-enable a
transmitter.

master_switch_mode = 1: EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON causes rfkill-input to
attempt to restore the system to the state before the last EV_SW
SW_RFKILL_ALL OFF event, or to the default global states if no EV_SW
SW_RFKILL_ALL OFF ever happened.   This is the recommended mode of
operation for laptops.

master_switch_mode = 2: tries to unblock all rfkill controllers (i.e.
enable all transmitters) when an EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON event is received.
This is the default mode of operation, as it mimics the previous behavior
of rfkill-input.

In order to implement these features in a clean way, the entire event
handling of rfkill-input was refactored into a single worker function.

Protection against input event DoS (repeatedly firing rfkill events for
rfkill-input to process) was removed during the code refactoring.  It will
be added back in a future patch.

Note that with these changes, rfkill-input doesn't need to explicitly
handle any radio types for which KEY_<radio type> or SW_<radio type> events
do not exist yet.

Code to handle EV_SW SW_{WLAN,WWAN,BLUETOOTH,WIMAX,...} was added as it
might be needed in the future (and its implementation is not that obvious),
but is currently #ifdef'd out to avoid wasting resources.

9663f2e6a6 resources: add io-mapping functions to dynamically map large device apertures
Impact: add new generic io_map_*() APIs

Graphics devices have large PCI apertures which would consume a significant
fraction of a 32-bit address space if mapped during driver initialization.
Using ioremap at runtime is impractical as it is too slow.

This new set of interfaces uses atomic mappings on 32-bit processors and a
large static mapping on 64-bit processors to provide reasonable 32-bit
performance and optimal 64-bit performance.

The current implementation sits atop the io_map_atomic fixmap-based
mechanism for 32-bit processors.

This includes some editorial suggestions from Randy Dunlap for

9244489a7b ftrace: handle archs that do not support irqs_disabled_flags
Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures

Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.

Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
the real answer.

This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
same archs compile with tracing enabled.

 4. Both ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE and ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_WAKE_ENABLE are set,

1080d709fb net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded
This is a patch to provide on demand route cache rebuilding.  Currently, our
route cache is rebulid periodically regardless of need.  This introduced
unneeded periodic latency.  This patch offers a better approach.  Using code
provided by Eric Dumazet, we compute the standard deviation of the average hash
bucket chain length while running rt_check_expire.  Should any given chain
length grow to larger that average plus 4 standard deviations, we trigger an
emergency hash table rebuild for that net namespace.  This allows for the common
case in which chains are well behaved and do not grow unevenly to not incur any
latency at all, while those systems (which may be being maliciously attacked),
only rebuild when the attack is detected.  This patch take 2 other factors into
account:
1) chains with multiple entries that differ by attributes that do not affect the
hash value are only counted once, so as not to unduly bias system to rebuilding
if features like QOS are heavily used
2) if rebuilding crosses a certain threshold (which is adjustable via the added
sysctl in this patch), route caching is disabled entirely for that net
namespace, since constant rebuilding is less efficient that no caching at all

Tested successfully by me.

97ae60bb38 hwmon: (lm90) Add support for the LM99 16 degree offset
The LM99 differs from the LM86, LM89 and LM90 in that it reports
remote temperatures (temp2) 16 degrees lower than they really are. So
far we have been cheating and handled this in userspace but it really
should be handled by the driver directly.

f5adfaa372 ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power transition
Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which
is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0
state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0
state. In  such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and
checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device
can't be transited to the correct power state.

   So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking
the device power in the course of device power transition.

54622f10a6 powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernel
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can
use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234)
is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence
and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between
kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels.

The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in
head_64.S.  During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it
is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel
will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the
address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter.

CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump
kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and
kdump kernel.

This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid
GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.
