Since the correct timeout value varies, use a heuristic which adjusts
the timeout depending on how many packets we've seen. This gives
slightly worse results, but doesn't need tweaking when GSO is
introduced.

virtio_ring has the ability to suppress notifications. This prevents
a guest exit for every packet, but we need to set a timer on packet
receipt to re-check if there were any remaining packets.
Here are the times for 1G TCP Guest->Host with different timeout
settings (it matters because the TCP window doesn't grow big enough to
fill the entire buffer):
Timeout value Seconds Xmit/Recv/Timeout

2500 usec 62.5119 xmit 207020 recv 2 timeout 207020

If you've got a nice DHCP configuration which maps MAC
addresses to specific IP addresses, then you're going to
want to start your guest with one of those MAC addresses.
Also, in Fedora, we have persistent network interface naming
based on the MAC address, so with randomly assigned
addresses you're soon going to hit eth13. Who knows what
will happen then!
Allow assigning a MAC address to the network interface with
e.g.
--tunnet=bridge:eth0:00:FF:95:6B:DA:3D
or:
--tunnet=192.168.121.1:00:FF:95:6B:DA:3D

Currently, even if you pass model=intel-mac-v3 as a module parameter to
snd_hda_intel, the function patch_stac922x (patch_sigmatel.c) will still
try to auto-detect the model type. This is a problem on my MacBook Pro 1st
generation, which needs intel-mac-v3, but sometimes incorrectly reports
0x00000100 as subsystem id, which causes the switch in patch_stac922x to
select intel-mac-v4.
To fix this, I added a new model called intel-mac-auto, so in case no
module parameter is passed, and an Intel Mac board is detected, the
model will be automatically detected, while no detection will be done
if the model is forced to intel-mac-v3.
This problem has been around for quite a while, and I used to fix it
by moving the case statement for 0x00000100 in patch_stac922x so that
intel-mac-v3 is chosen.
Another way to fix the problem would be to check if a module parameter
was set directly in patch_stac922x, using something like this:
if (spec->board_config == STAC_INTEL_MAC_V3 &&
!codec->bus->modelname) {
But I think it is less elegant (if you prefer that way, I can prepare a
patch).

can be initialized later. This is useful in scenarios such as logging in

Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:
This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).
I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated.
A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.
If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.
The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.
The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.
This patch:
dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.
Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

This patch adds functionality to the gpio-lib subsystem to make it
possible to enable the gpio-lib code even if the architecture code didn't
request to get it built in.
The archtitecture code does still need to implement the gpiolib accessor
functions in its asm/gpio.h file. This patch adds the implementations for
x86 and PPC.
With these changes it is possible to run generic GPIO expansion cards on
every architecture that implements the trivial wrapper functions. Support
for more architectures can easily be added.

This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs.
/sys/class/gpio
/export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
/unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
/gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
/value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
/direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low
/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
/base ... (r/o) same as N
/label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
/ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1)
GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new
gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging.
Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute.
Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file,
helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off"
requirements that don't merit full kernel support:
echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export
... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23);
use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it,
when that GPIO can be used as both input and output.
echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport
... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above
The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs
resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space
footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since
no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed.
Related changes:
* This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO
providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of
that device instead of being "virtual" devices.
* The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have
been updated.
* Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner"
field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added.
* Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now
flagged appropriately when the chip is registered.
Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML.
A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this
merges to mainline.

so it is better to provide a workaround for them. For this reason, add a new
switch to the acpi_sleep= command line argument allowing one to disable
hardware signature checking.

Boot-time test for system suspend states (STR or standby). The generic
RTC framework triggers wakeup alarms, which are used to exit those states.
- Measures some aspects of suspend time ... this uses "jiffies" until
someone converts it to use a timebase that works properly even while
timer IRQs are disabled.
- Triggered by a command line parameter. By default nothing even
vaguely troublesome will happen, but "test_suspend=mem" will give
you a brief STR test during system boot. (Or you may need to use
"test_suspend=standby" instead, if your hardware needs that.)
This isn't without problems. It fires early enough during boot that for
example both PCMCIA and MMC stacks have misbehaved. The workaround in
those cases was to boot without such media cards inserted.

Memory may be hot-removed on a per-memory-block basis, particularly on
POWER where the SPARSEMEM section size often matches the memory-block
size. A user-level agent must be able to identify which sections of
memory are likely to be removable before attempting the potentially
expensive operation. This patch adds a file called "removable" to the
memory directory in sysfs to help such an agent. In this patch, a memory
block is considered removable if;
o It contains only MOVABLE pageblocks
o It contains only pageblocks with free pages regardless of pageblock type
On the other hand, a memory block starting with a PageReserved() page will
never be considered removable. Without this patch, the user-agent is
forced to choose a memory block to remove randomly.
Sample output of the sysfs files:
./memory/memory0/removable: 0

Instead of using the variable mmu_huge_psize to keep track of the huge
page size we use an array of MMU_PAGE_* values. For each supported huge
page size we need to know the hugepte_shift value and have a
pgtable_cache. The hstate or an mmu_huge_psizes index is passed to
functions so that they know which huge page size they should use.
The hugepage sizes 16M and 64K are setup(if available on the hardware) so
that they don't have to be set on the boot cmd line in order to use them.
The number of 16G pages have to be specified at boot-time though (e.g.

Provide new hugepages user APIs that are more suited to multiple hstates
in sysfs. There is a new directory, /sys/kernel/hugepages. Underneath
that directory there will be a directory per-supported hugepage size,
e.g.:
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64kB
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-16384kB
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-16777216kB
corresponding to 64k, 16m and 16g respectively. Within each
hugepages-size directory there are a number of files, corresponding to the
tracked counters in the hstate, e.g.:
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/nr_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/nr_overcommit_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/free_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/resv_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/surplus_hugepages
Of these files, the first two are read-write and the latter three are
read-only. The size of the hugepage being manipulated is trivially
deducible from the enclosing directory and is always expressed in kB (to
match meminfo).

Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of
architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering. While significant
amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data
received from the architecture layer. This is a mistake, and has resulted in
a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs.
This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation. It
also introduces a few basic defensive measures. The validation code can be
explicitly disabled for embedded systems.
This patch:
Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation.
Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required
additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel=
command-line parameter.
The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c. Ideally other mm
initialisation code will be moved here over time.

Sometimes it is necessary to enable/disable the interrupt of a UIO device
from the userspace part of the driver. With this patch, the UIO kernel driver
can implement an "irqcontrol()" function that does this. Userspace can write
an s32 value to /dev/uioX (usually 0 or 1 to turn the irq off or on). The

Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.
What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
seems counter productive.
2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
environment like an initramfs.
3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

Split out CDC ACM parts of "gadget serial" to a "function driver".
Some key structural differences from the previous ACM support, shared
with with the generic serial function (next patch):
- As a function driver, it can be combined with other functions.
One gadget configuration could offer both serial and network
links, as an example.
- One serial port can be exposed in multiple configurations;
the /dev/ttyGS0 node could be exposed regardless of which
config the host selected.
- One configuration can expose multiple serial ports, such as
ttyGS0, ttyGS1, ttyGS2, and ttyGS3.
This code should be a lot easier to understand than the previous
all-in-one-big-file version of the driver.

Add <linux/usb/composite.h> interfaces for composite gadget drivers, and
basic implementation support behind it:
- struct usb_function ... groups one or more interfaces into a function
managed as one unit within a configuration, to which it's added by
usb_add_function().
- struct usb_configuration ... groups one or more such functions into
a configuration managed as one unit by a driver, to which it's added
by usb_add_config(). These operate at either high or full/low speeds
and at a given bMaxPower.
- struct usb_composite_driver ... groups one or more such configurations
into a gadget driver, which may be registered or unregistered.
- struct usb_composite_dev ... a usb_composite_driver manages this; it
wraps the usb_gadget exposed by the controller driver.
This also includes some basic kerneldoc.
How to use it (the short version): provide a usb_composite_driver with a
bind() that calls usb_add_config() for each of the needed configurations.
The configurations in turn have bind() calls, which will usb_add_function()
for each function required. Each function's bind() allocates resources
needed to perform its tasks, like endpoints; sometimes configurations will
allocate resources too.
Separate patches will convert most gadget drivers to this infrastructure.

Teach "gadget serial" to use the new abstracted (and bugfixed) TTY glue,
and remove all the orignal tangled-up code. Update the documentation
accordingly. This is a net object code shrink and cleanup; it should
make it a lot easier to see how the TTY glue should accomodate updates
to the TTY layer, be bugfixed, etc.
Notable behavior changes include: it can now support getty even when
there's no USB connection; it fits properly into the mdev/udev world;
and RX handling is better (throttling works, and low latency).
Configurations with scripts setting up the /dev/ttygserial device node
(with "experimental" major number) may want to change that to be a
symlink pointing to the /dev/ttyGS0 file, as a migration aid; else,
just switch entirely over to mdev/udev.
