      gpiolib: allow user-selection · 7444a72e
      Michael Buesch 提交于
      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.

      gpio: sysfs interface · d8f388d8
      David Brownell 提交于
      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.

      sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store function · 4a0b2b4d
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store
      functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated
      by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute
      passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute
      and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things.
      
      I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86
      machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups.
      
      I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single
      huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.
      
      Runtime tested: x86-32, x86-64
      Compiled only: ia64, powerpc
      Not compile tested/only grep converted: sh, arm, avr32

      nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop · b8f8c3cf
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
      problem in the NOHZ code:
      
      	scheduler switch to idle task
      	enable interrupts
      
      Window starts here
      
      	----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
      	      	irq_exit() stops the tick
      
      	----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)
      
      	return from schedule()
      	
      	cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();
      
      Window ends here
      
      The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
      first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
      rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
      disabled.
      
      The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
      NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
      hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.
      
      Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
      that we can not run into such a situation ever again.
      
      cpu_idle()
      {
      	preempt_disable();
      
      	while(1) {
      		 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
      		 			          are in the idle loop
      
      		 while (!need_resched())
      		       halt();
      
      		 tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
      		 preempt_enable_no_resched();
      		 schedule();
      		 preempt_disable();
      	}
      }
      
      In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... 
      
      /me grabs a large brown paperbag.

      avr32: clean up mci platform code · fbfca4b8
      Ben Nizette 提交于
      This patch does a few small cleanups around the atmel mci platform code
      and in the atmel-mci driver.  The platform changes simply removes an
      unused variable, uses the fact that by the end we always have some form
      of platform data and notes that GPIO_PIN_NONE != 0.  This last point
      could cause the incorrect attempt to twice reserve pin PA0.
      
      While we've got the hood up, add linux/err.h to the atmel-mci.c include
      list.  It needs it and generally pulls it by voodoo but I did once
      stumble across a config which don't build.
      
      This is against Linus' latest git.
