      wanrouter: completely decouple obsolete code from kernel. · a786a7c0
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      The original suggestion to delete wanrouter started earlier
      with the mainline commit f0d1b3c2
      ("net/wanrouter: Deprecate and schedule for removal") in May 2012.
      
      More importantly, Dan Carpenter found[1] that the driver had a
      fundamental breakage introduced back in 2008, with commit
      7be6065b ("netdevice wanrouter: Convert directly reference of
      netdev->priv").  So we know with certainty that the code hasn't been
      used by anyone willing to at least take the effort to send an e-mail
      report of breakage for at least 4 years.
      
      This commit does a decouple of the wanrouter subsystem, by going
      after the Makefile/Kconfig and similar files, so that these mainline
      files that we are keeping do not have the big wanrouter file/driver
      deletion commit tied into their history.
      
      Once this commit is in place, we then can remove the obsolete cyclomx
      drivers and similar that have a dependency on CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.

      vfio: VFIO core · cba3345c
      Alex Williamson 提交于
      VFIO is a secure user level driver for use with both virtual machines
      and user level drivers.  VFIO makes use of IOMMU groups to ensure the
      isolation of devices in use, allowing unprivileged user access.  It's
      intended that VFIO will replace KVM device assignment and UIO drivers
      (in cases where the target platform includes a sufficiently capable
      IOMMU).
      
      New in this version of VFIO is support for IOMMU groups managed
      through the IOMMU core as well as a rework of the API, removing the
      group merge interface.  We now go back to a model more similar to
      original VFIO with UIOMMU support where the file descriptor obtained
      from /dev/vfio/vfio allows access to the IOMMU, but only after a
      group is added, avoiding the previous privilege issues with this type
      of model.  IOMMU support is also now fully modular as IOMMUs have
      vastly different interface requirements on different platforms.  VFIO
      users are able to query and initialize the IOMMU model of their
      choice.
      
      Please see the follow-on Documentation commit for further description
      and usage example.

      ppp: Move ioctl definitions from if_ppp.h to new ppp-ioctl.h · bf7daebb
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This moves the definitions of the ioctls, constants and structures
      relating to the ppp_generic interface to userspace out from if_ppp.h
      to a new file, ppp-ioctl.h.  The new file has my copyright since I
      designed and implemented the ppp_generic interface in the late 1990s.
      None of the contents of this file comes from the original if_ppp.h
      published by Carnegie Mellon University.
      
      Of the remainder of if_ppp.h, only the PPP_MTU definition was being
      used, and this replaces the uses of it with PPP_MRU (which is identical).
      Therefore, this replaces the entire file with the single line
      
      #include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>
      
      which clearly doesn't contain any CMU code.  Thus I have removed the
      CMU copyright notice with its problematic advertising clause, and in
      fact since it's only one trivial line I have not added any other
      copyright notice.

      drivers/virt: introduce Freescale hypervisor management driver · 6db71994
      Timur Tabi 提交于
      Add the drivers/virt directory, which houses drivers that support
      virtualization environments, and add the Freescale hypervisor management
      driver.
      
      The Freescale hypervisor management driver provides several services to
      drivers and applications related to the Freescale hypervisor:
      
      1. An ioctl interface for querying and managing partitions
      
      2. A file interface to reading incoming doorbells
      
      3. An interrupt handler for shutting down the partition upon receiving the
         shutdown doorbell from a manager partition
      
      4. A kernel interface for receiving callbacks when a managed partition
         shuts down.

      mmc: core: Add mmc CMD+ACMD passthrough ioctl · cb87ea28
      John Calixto 提交于
      Allows appropriately-privileged applications to send CMD (normal) and ACMD
      (application-specific; preceded with CMD55) commands to cards/devices on
      the mmc bus.  This is primarily useful for enabling the security
      functionality built in to every SD card.
      
      It can also be used as a generic passthrough (e.g. to enable virtual
      machines to control mmc bus devices directly).  However, this use case has
      not been tested rigorously.  Generic passthrough testing was only conducted
      for a few non-security opcodes to prove the feasibility of the passthrough.
      
      Since any opcode can be sent using this passthrough, it is very possible to
      render the card/device unusable.  Applications that use this ioctl must
      have CAP_SYS_RAWIO.
      
      Security commands tested on TI PCIxx12 (SDHCI), Sigma Designs SMP8652 SoC,
      TI OMAP3621/OMAP3630 SoC, Samsung S5PC110 SoC, Qualcomm MSM7200A SoC.

      Documentation: update broken web addresses. · 0ea6e611
      Justin P. Mattock 提交于
      Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
      updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
      Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
      the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
      Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
      on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
      to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

      LinuxPPS: core support · eae9d2ba
      Rodolfo Giometti 提交于
      This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
      "LinuxPPS".
      
      PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
      provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
      use it to adjust system clock time.
      
      Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
      receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
      synchronisation to UTC.
      
      To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
      specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
      Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch.  It
      provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
      get the time signal.  The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
      to these char devices.
