This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow
common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O
mechanisms.  It will no-doubt need further enhancement.

The virtio drivers add buffers to virtio queues; as the buffers are consumed
the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked.

There is also a generic implementation of config space which drivers can query
to get setup information from the host.

move watchdog tree from drivers/char/watchdog to drivers/watchdog.

Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data
is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses.  This
patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA
services with devices that offer DCA services.

In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag
bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU.  However, different
CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods
for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a
hardware specific magic incantation.  This interface is a way for DCA
clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing
to know the specifics.

SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices.  The most
well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there
are others as well.  The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx
and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom.

This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so
that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.

    CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver

    Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and

    ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent.  BM
    activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
    original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
    verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

    cpuidle: re-write

    Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
    weight.  The following is a list of changes:

    1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
    2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
    CPUIDLE drivers directly
    3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
    cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
    4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
    5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
    negative values
    6.) a variety of other small cleanups

    Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
    CPUIDLE sysfs inteface.  On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
    poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
    supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
    handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

    cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor

    Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
    full advantage of NO_HZ.  I call it the 'menu' governor because it
    considers the full list of idle states before each entry.

    I've kept the implementation fairly simple.  It attempts to guess the
    next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
    the break-even point between power savings and entry cost.  To this end,
    it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
    constraints:
         1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
            is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
            to C2-type or above.
         2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
         3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
            excluding timer interrupts.

    This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
    proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
    using the tick infrastructure.  Also, it handles device interrupt
    activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
    event calculations.  Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
    number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
    makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
    time deltas.

    The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
    interface like so:
    "echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

    cpuidle: hang fix

    Prevent hang on x86-64, when ACPI processor driver is added as a module on
    a system that does not support C-states.

    x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from
    idle handler.  This is due to enter_idle(), exit_idle() races.  Make
    cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.

    cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure

    Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
    idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
    cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
    of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
    at run time.
    A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
    varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
    A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
    laptop on battery etc).
    Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
    of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.

    A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
    since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.

    This patch:

    Core cpuidle infrastructure.
    Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
    * which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
      can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
    * allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
      decision
    * The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
      about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.

Fix for the problem detected by Ingo Molnar:
enabling CONFIG_PCWATCHDOG=y crashes bzImage bootup.

The reason for this can be found in drivers/makefile
We first do:
obj-y                           += char/
and later we do:
obj-y                           += base/ block/ misc/ mfd/ net/ media/

So if we put a platform or isa or usb bus driver in char/watchdog
(which is called from the Makefile in drivers/char/Makefile)
then we didn't have the different device drivers initialized yet
(they are in drivers/base and drivers/usb and ...)

This fix makes sure that we compile the watchdog drivers after
drivers/base, drivers/misc, drivers/pci and drivers/usb.
We also do the compile after hwmon because in the future the
watchdog temperature support will use the hwmon system.

This interface allows the ability to write the majority of a driver in

It uses a char device and sysfs to interact with a userspace process to

This provides partial support for new-style I2C driver binding.  It builds
on "struct i2c_board_info" declarations that identify I2C devices on a given
board.  This is needed on systems with I2C devices that can't be fully probed
and/or autoconfigured, such as many embedded Linux configurations where the
way a given I2C device is wired may affect how it must be used.

There are two models for declaring such devices:

 * LATE -- using a public function i2c_new_device().  This lets modules
   declare I2C devices found *AFTER* a given I2C adapter becomes available.
   
   For example, a PCI card could create adapters giving access to utility
   chips on that card, and this would be used to associate those chips with
   those adapters.

 * EARLY -- from arch_initcall() level code, using a non-exported function
   i2c_register_board_info().  This copies the declarations *BEFORE* such
   an i2c_adapter becomes available, arranging that i2c_new_device() will
   be called later when i2c-core registers the relevant i2c_adapter.

   For example, arch/.../.../board-*.c files would declare the I2C devices
   along with their platform data, and I2C devices would behave much like
   PNPACPI devices.  (That is, both enumerate from board-specific tables.)

To match the exported i2c_new_device(), the previously-private function
i2c_unregister_device() is now exported.

Pending later patches using these new APIs, this is effectively a NOP.

web site: http://kvm.sourceforge.net

mailing list: kvm-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
  (http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kvm-devel)

The following patchset adds a driver for Intel's hardware virtualization
extensions to the x86 architecture.  The driver adds a character device
(/dev/kvm) that exposes the virtualization capabilities to userspace.  Using
this driver, a process can run a virtual machine (a "guest") in a fully
virtualized PC containing its own virtual hard disks, network adapters, and
display.

Using this driver, one can start multiple virtual machines on a host.

Each virtual machine is a process on the host; a virtual cpu is a thread in
that process.  kill(1), nice(1), top(1) work as expected.  In effect, the
driver adds a third execution mode to the existing two: we now have kernel
mode, user mode, and guest mode.  Guest mode has its own address space mapping
guest physical memory (which is accessible to user mode by mmap()ing
/dev/kvm).  Guest mode has no access to any I/O devices; any such access is
intercepted and directed to user mode for emulation.

The driver supports i386 and x86_64 hosts and guests.  All combinations are
allowed except x86_64 guest on i386 host.  For i386 guests and hosts, both pae
and non-pae paging modes are supported.

SMP hosts and UP guests are supported.  At the moment only Intel
hardware is supported, but AMD virtualization support is being worked on.

Performance currently is non-stellar due to the naive implementation of the
mmu virtualization, which throws away most of the shadow page table entries
every context switch.  We plan to address this in two ways:

- cache shadow page tables across tlb flushes
- wait until AMD and Intel release processors with nested page tables

Currently a virtual desktop is responsive but consumes a lot of CPU.  Under
Windows I tried playing pinball and watching a few flash movies; with a recent
CPU one can hardly feel the virtualization.  Linux/X is slower, probably due
to X being in a separate process.

In addition to the driver, you need a slightly modified qemu to provide I/O
device emulation and the BIOS.

Caveats (akpm: might no longer be true):

- The Windows install currently bluescreens due to a problem with the
  virtual APIC.  We are working on a fix.  A temporary workaround is to
  use an existing image or install through qemu
- Windows 64-bit does not work.  That's also true for qemu, so it's
  probably a problem with the device model.

This is a subset of the bluesmoke project core code, stripped of the NMI work
which isn't ready to merge and some of the "interesting" proc functionality
that needs reworking or just has no place in kernel.  It requires no core
kernel changes except the added scrub functions already posted.

The goal is to merge further functionality only after the core code is
accepted and proven in the base kernel, and only at the point the upstream
extras are really ready to merge.

This is the core of a small SPI framework, implementing the model of a
queue of messages which complete asynchronously (with thin synchronous
wrappers on top).

  - It's still less than 2KB of ".text" (ARM).  If there's got to be a
    mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget.  :)

  - The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver
    model tree.  (Hardware probing is rarely an option.)

  - This version of Kconfig includes no drivers.  At this writing there
    are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire)
    and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML
    mentions of other drivers in development.

  - No userspace API.  There are several implementations to compare.
    Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs.

The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor,
and include:

  - One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device
    names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect.

  - The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for
    DMA drivers that want to be fancy.

  - Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init.  Even though board init
    logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is
    for driver support, and the board init support uses static init.

  - Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions
    with other folk.  It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk
    who've helped nudge this framework into existence.

As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support
that this driver framework will need to evolve.

  Update the SPI framework to remove a potential priority inversion case by
  reverting to kmalloc if the pre-allocated DMA-safe buffer isn't available.

We want to link the "regular" SCSI drivers before the USB storage
driver, since historically we've always detected internal SCSI disks
before the external USB storage modules.

The link order matters for initcall ordering, and this got broken by
mistake by commit 7586269c which moved
the USB host controller PCI quirk handling around.

Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel.  RIO is a switched fabric interconnect
used in higher-end embedded applications.  The curious can look at the specs
over at http://www.rapidio.org

The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of
devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers.

There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware features.
However, this should provide a good base for folks with RIO hardware to start
contributing.

This moves the PCI quirk handling for USB host controllers from the
PCI directory to the USB directory.  Follow-on patches will need to:

(a) merge these copies with the originals in the HCD reset methods.
they don't wholly agree, despite doing the very same thing; and

(b) eventually change it so "usb-handoff" is the default, to help
get more robust USB/BIOS/input/... interactions.

Kernel connector - new userspace <-> kernel space easy to use
communication module which implements easy to use bidirectional
message bus using netlink as it's backend.  Connector was created to
eliminate complex skb handling both in send and receive message bus
direction.

Connector driver adds possibility to connect various agents using as
one of it's backends netlink based network.  One must register
callback and identifier. When driver receives special netlink message
with appropriate identifier, appropriate callback will be called.

From the userspace point of view it's quite straightforward:

	socket();
	bind();
	send();
	recv();

But if kernelspace want to use full power of such connections, driver
writer must create special sockets, must know about struct sk_buff
handling...  Connector allows any kernelspace agents to use netlink
based networking for inter-process communication in a significantly
easier way:

int cn_add_callback(struct cb_id *id, char *name, void (*callback) (void *));
void cn_netlink_send(struct cn_msg *msg, u32 __groups, int gfp_mask);

struct cb_id
{
	__u32			idx;
	__u32			val;
};

idx and val are unique identifiers which must be registered in
connector.h for in-kernel usage.  void (*callback) (void *) - is a
callback function which will be called when message with above idx.val
will be received by connector core.

Using connector completely hides low-level transport layer from it's
users.

Connector uses new netlink ability to have many groups in one socket.
