      resource: allow MMIO exclusivity for device drivers · e8de1481
      Arjan van de Ven 提交于
      Device drivers that use pci_request_regions() (and similar APIs) have a
      reasonable expectation that they are the only ones accessing their device.
      As part of the e1000e hunt, we were afraid that some userland (X or some
      bootsplash stuff) was mapping the MMIO region that the driver thought it
      had exclusively via /dev/mem or via various sysfs resource mappings.
      
      This patch adds the option for device drivers to cause their reserved
      regions to the "banned from /dev/mem use" list, so now both kernel memory
      and device-exclusive MMIO regions are banned.
      NOTE: This is only active when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is set.
      
      In addition to the config option, a kernel parameter iomem=relaxed is
      provided for the cases where developers want to diagnose, in the field,
      drivers issues from userspace.

      netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-2 · 4cf1653a
      Wang Chen 提交于
      We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
      1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
      2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
         netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
      But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
      directly.
      
      This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
      Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read.
      But it is too big to be sent in one mail.
      I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes,
      which is max size allowed by vger.

      e1000e: avoid duplicated output of device name in kernel warning · 6c2a9efa
      Frans Pop 提交于
      With 2.6.27-rc3 I noticed the following messages in my boot log:
      
      0000:01:00.0: 0000:01:00.0: Warning: detected DSPD enabled in EEPROM
      0000:01:00.0: eth0: (PCI Express:2.5GB/s:Width x1) 00:16:76:04:ff:09
      
      The second seems correct, but the first has a silly repetition of the
      PCI device before the actual message. The message originates from
      e1000_eeprom_checks in e1000e/netdev.c.
      
      With this patch below the first message becomes
      
        e1000e 0000:01:00.0: Warning: detected DSPD enabled in EEPROM
      
      which makes it similar to directly preceding messages.
      
      Use dev_warn instead of e_warn in e1000_eeprom_checks() as the interface
      name has not yet been assigned at that point.

      dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error() · 8d8bb39b
      FUJITA Tomonori 提交于
      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.
