2013-04-25kconfig: allow specifying the seed for randconfigYann E. MORIN
For reproducibility, it can be useful to be able to specify the seed to use to seed the RNG. Add a new KCONFIG_SEED environment variable which can be set to the seed to use: $ make KCONFIG_SEED=42 randconfig $ sha1sum .config 70a128c8dcc61303069e1be352cce64114dfcbca .config $ make KCONFIG_SEED=42 randconfig $ sha1sum .config 70a128c8dcc61303069e1be352cce64114dfcbca .config It's very usefull for eg. debugging the kconfig parser.

2013-04-24ARM: mcpm: Add baremetal voting mutexesDave Martin
This patch adds a simple low-level voting mutex implementation to be used to arbitrate during first man selection when no load/store exclusive instructions are usable. For want of a better name, these are called "vlocks". (I was tempted to call them ballot locks, but "block" is way too confusing an abbreviation...) There is no function to wait for the lock to be released, and no vlock_lock() function since we don't need these at the moment. These could straightforwardly be added if vlocks get used for other purposes. For architectural correctness even Strongly-Ordered memory accesses require barriers in order to guarantee that multiple CPUs have a coherent view of the ordering of memory accesses. Whether or not this matters depends on hardware implementation details of the memory system. Since the purpose of this code is to provide a clean, generic locking mechanism with no platform-specific dependencies the barriers should be present to avoid unpleasant surprises on future platforms. Note: * When taking the lock, we don't care about implicit background memory operations and other signalling which may be pending, because those are not part of the critical section anyway. A DMB is sufficient to ensure correctly observed ordering if the explicit memory accesses in vlock_trylock. * No barrier is required after checking the election result, because the result is determined by the store to VLOCK_OWNER_OFFSET and is already globally observed due to the barriers in voting_end. This means that global agreement on the winner is guaranteed, even before the winner is known locally.

2013-04-24ARM: mcpm: introduce helpers for platform coherency exit/setupDave Martin
This provides helper methods to coordinate between CPUs coming down and CPUs going up, as well as documentation on the used algorithms, so that cluster teardown and setup operations are not done for a cluster simultaneously. For use in the power_down() implementation: * __mcpm_cpu_going_down(unsigned int cluster, unsigned int cpu) * __mcpm_outbound_enter_critical(unsigned int cluster) * __mcpm_outbound_leave_critical(unsigned int cluster) * __mcpm_cpu_down(unsigned int cluster, unsigned int cpu) The power_up_setup() helper should do platform-specific setup in preparation for turning the CPU on, such as invalidating local caches or entering coherency. It must be assembler for now, since it must run before the MMU can be switched on. It is passed the affinity level for which initialization should be performed. Because the mcpm_sync_struct content is looked-up and modified with the cache enabled or disabled depending on the code path, it is crucial to always ensure proper cache maintenance to update main memory right away. The sync_cache_*() helpers are used to that end. Also, in order to prevent a cached writer from interfering with an adjacent non-cached writer, we ensure each state variable is located to a separate cache line. Thanks to Nicolas Pitre and Achin Gupta for the help with this patch.

2013-04-24DM RAID: Add message/status support for changing sync actionJonathan Brassow
DM RAID: Add message/status support for changing sync action This patch adds a message interface to dm-raid to allow the user to more finely control the sync actions being performed by the MD driver. This gives the user the ability to initiate "check" and "repair" (i.e. scrubbing). Two additional fields have been appended to the status output to provide more information about the type of sync action occurring and the results of those actions, specifically: <sync_action> and <mismatch_cnt>. These new fields will always be populated. This is essentially the device-mapper way of doing what MD controls through the 'sync_action' sysfs file and shows through the 'mismatch_cnt' sysfs file.

2013-04-23cpuidle: make a single register function for allDaniel Lezcano
The usual scheme to initialize a cpuidle driver on a SMP is: cpuidle_register_driver(drv); for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu); cpuidle_register_device(device); } This code is duplicated in each cpuidle driver. On UP systems, it is done this way: cpuidle_register_driver(drv); device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu); cpuidle_register_device(device); On UP, the macro 'for_each_cpu' does one iteration: #define for_each_cpu(cpu, mask) \ for ((cpu) = 0; (cpu) < 1; (cpu)++, (void)mask) Hence, the initialization loop is the same for UP than SMP. Beside, we saw different bugs / mis-initialization / return code unchecked in the different drivers, the code is duplicated including bugs. After fixing all these ones, it appears the initialization pattern is the same for everyone. Please note, some drivers are doing dev->state_count = drv->state_count. This is not necessary because it is done by the cpuidle_enable_device function in the cpuidle framework. This is true, until you have the same states for all your devices. Otherwise, the 'low level' API should be used instead with the specific initialization for the driver. Let's add a wrapper function doing this initialization with a cpumask parameter for the coupled idle states and use it for all the drivers. That will save a lot of LOC, consolidate the code, and the modifications in the future could be done in a single place. Another benefit is the consolidation of the cpuidle_device variable which is now in the cpuidle framework and no longer spread accross the different arch specific drivers.

This adds a complete DT binding for the arasan device driver.

2013-04-19nohz: Force boot CPU outside full dynticks rangeFrederic Weisbecker
The timekeeping job must be able to run early on boot because there may be some pre-SMP (and thus pre-initcalls ) components that rely on it. The IO-APIC is one such users as it tests the timer health by watching jiffies progression. Given that it happens before we know the initial online set, we can't rely on it to select a timekeeper. We need one before SMP time otherwise we simply crash on boot. To fix this and keep things simple for now, force the boot CPU outside of the full dynticks range in any case and do this early on kernel parameter parsing time. We might want a trickier solution later, expecially for aSMP architectures that need to assign housekeeping tasks to arbitrary low power CPUs. But it's still first pass KISS time for now.

Unfortunately the DAWR doesn't sit nicely into the current description that ptrace provides to userspace via struct ppc_debug_info.

Chao said that kdump does does work well on his system on 3.8 without extra parameter, even iommu does not work with kdump. And now have to append crashkernel_low=Y in first kernel to make kdump work. We have now modified crashkernel=X to allocate memory beyong 4G (if available) and do not allocate low range for crashkernel if the user does not specify that with crashkernel_low=Y. This causes regression if iommu is not enabled. Without iommu, swiotlb needs to be setup in first 4G and there is no low memory available to second kernel.

For system that does support IOMMU with kdump properly, user could specify crashkernel_low=0 to save that 72M low ram. -v3: add swiotlb_size() according to Konrad. -v4: add comments what 8M is for according to hpa. also update more crashkernel_low= in kernel-parameters.txt -v5: update changelog according to Vivek. -v6: Change description about swiotlb referring according to HATAYAMA.

git://sources.calxeda.com/kernel/linux into late/clksrc This is the 2nd part of ARM timer clean-ups for 3.10. This series has the following changes: - Add sched_clock selection logic to select the highest frequency clock - Use full 64-bit arch timer counter for sched_clock - Convert arch timer, sp804 and integrator-cp timers to CLKSRC_OF and adapt all users to use clocksource_of_init * tag 'clksrc-cleanup-for-3.10-part2' of git://sources.calxeda.com/kernel/linux: devtree: add binding documentation for sp804 ARM: integrator-cp: convert use CLKSRC_OF for timer init ARM: versatile: use OF init for sp804 timer ARM: versatile: add versatile dtbs to dtbs target ARM: vexpress: remove extra timer-sp control register clearing ARM: dts: vexpress: disable CA9 core tile sp804 timer ARM: vexpress: remove sp804 OF init ARM: highbank: use OF init for sp804 timer ARM: timer-sp: convert to use CLKSRC_OF init OF: add empty of_device_is_available for !OF ARM: convert arm/arm64 arch timer to use CLKSRC_OF init ARM: make machine_desc->init_time default to clocksource_of_init ARM: arch_timer: use full 64-bit counter for sched_clock ARM: make sched_clock just call a function pointer ARM: sched_clock: allow changing to higher frequency counter Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> This has a nasty set of conflicts with the exynos MCT code, which was moved in a separate branch, and then fixed up when merged in, but still conflicts a bit here. It should have been sorted out by this merge though.

2013-04-17x86,efi: Implement efi_no_storage_paranoia parameterRichard Weinberger
Using this parameter one can disable the storage_size/2 check if he is really sure that the UEFI does sane gc and fulfills the spec. This parameter is useful if a devices uses more than 50% of the storage by default. The Intel DQSW67 desktop board is such a sucker for exmaple.

2013-04-17i2c: mux: Add i2c-arb-gpio-challenge 'mux' driverDoug Anderson
The i2c-arb-gpio-challenge driver implements an I2C arbitration scheme where masters need to claim the bus with a GPIO before they can start a transaction. This should generally only be used when standard I2C multimaster isn't appropriate for some reason (errata/bugs). This driver is based on code that Simon Glass added to the i2c-s3c2410 driver in the Chrome OS kernel 3.4 tree. The current incarnation as a mux driver is as suggested by Grant Likely.

Each of ST-Ericsson X500 chip set series consists of both ABX500 and DBX500 chips. This is ABX500 hwmon driver, where the abx500.c is a common layer for all ABX500s, and the ab8500.c is specific for AB8500 chip. Under this designed structure, other chip specific files can be added simply using the same common layer abx500.c.
