Rodolfo Giometti eae9d2ba0c LinuxPPS: core support
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.

Kenji Kaneshige c825bc94c8 PCI hotplug: create symlink to hotplug driver module
Create symbolic link to hotplug driver module in the PCI slot
directory (/sys/bus/pci/slots/<SLOT#>). In the past, we need to load
hotplug drivers one by one to identify the hotplug driver that handles
the slot, and it was very inconvenient especially for trouble shooting.
With this change, we can easily identify the hotplug driver.

Andreas Dilger 11013911da ext4: teach the inode allocator to use a goal inode number
Enhance the inode allocator to take a goal inode number as a
paremeter; if it is specified, it takes precedence over Orlov or
parent directory inode allocation algorithms.

The extents migration function uses the goal inode number so that the
extent trees allocated the migration function use the correct flex_bg.
In the future, the goal inode functionality will also be used to
allocate an adjacent inode for the extended attributes.

Also, for testing purposes the goal inode number can be specified via
/sys/fs/{dev}/inode_goal.  This can be useful for testing inode
allocation beyond 2^32 blocks on very large filesystems.

Martin K. Petersen c72758f337 block: Export I/O topology for block devices and partitions
To support devices with physical block sizes bigger than 512 bytes we
need to ensure proper alignment.  This patch adds support for exposing
I/O topology characteristics as devices are stacked.

  logical_block_size is the smallest unit the device can address.

  physical_block_size indicates the smallest I/O the device can write
  without incurring a read-modify-write penalty.

  The io_min parameter is the smallest preferred I/O size reported by
  the device.  In many cases this is the same as the physical block
  size.  However, the io_min parameter can be scaled up when stacking
  (RAID5 chunk size > physical block size).

  The io_opt characteristic indicates the optimal I/O size reported by
  the device.  This is usually the stripe width for arrays.

  The alignment_offset parameter indicates the number of bytes the start
  of the device/partition is offset from the device's natural alignment.
  Partition tools and MD/DM utilities can use this to pad their offsets
  so filesystems start on proper boundaries.

David Brownell 853116a105 regulator: add get_status()
Based on previous LKML discussions:

 * Update docs for regulator sysfs class attributes to highlight
   the fact that all current attributes are intended to be control
   inputs, including notably "state" and "opmode" which previously
   implied otherwise.

 * Define a new regulator driver get_status() method, which is the
   first method reporting regulator outputs instead of inputs.
   It can report on/off and error status; or instead of simply
   "on", report the actual operating mode.

For the moment, this is a sysfs-only interface, not accessible to
regulator clients.  Such clients can use the current notification
interfaces to detect errors, if the regulator reports them.

David Brownell 7ad68e2f97 regulator: sysfs attribute reduction (v2)
Clean up the sysfs interface to regulators by only exposing the
attributes that can be properly displayed.  For example: when a
particular regulator method is needed to display the value, only
create that attribute when that method exists.

This cleaned-up interface is much more comprehensible.  Most
regulators only support a subset of the possible methods, so
often more than half the attributes would be meaningless.  Many
"not defined" values are no longer necessary.  (But handling
of out-of-range values still looks a bit iffy.)

Documentation is updated to reflect that few of the attributes
are *always* present, and to briefly explain why a regulator may
not have a given attribute.

This adds object code, about a dozen bytes more than was removed
by the preceding patch, but saves a bunch of per-regulator data
associated with the now-removed attributes.  So there's a net
reduction in memory footprint.

Gary Hade c04fc586c1 mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs

Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX.  For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.

Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.

In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
  - Provides information needed to determine the specific node
    on which a defective DIMM is located.  This will reduce system
    downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
  - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
    previously offlined due to a defective DIMM.  This could happen
    during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
    onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
    to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
    node.  The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
    could be ugly.
  - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
    of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
  - Will provide information needed to identify the memory
    sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
    of a specific node.

Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems.  Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

David Vrabel 6fae35f9ce uwb: add basic radio manager
The UWB radio manager coordinates the use of the radio between the
PALs that may be using it.  PALs request use of the radio with
uwb_radio_start() and the radio manager will start beaconing if its
not already doing so.  When the last PAL has called uwb_radio_stop()
beaconing will be stopped.

In the future, the radio manager will have a more sophisticated channel
selection algorithm, probably following the Channel Selection Policy
from the WiMedia Alliance when it is finalized.  For now, channel 9
(BG1, TFC1) is selected.

The user may override the channel selected by the radio manager and may
force the radio to stop beaconing.

The WUSB Host Controller PAL makes use of this and there are two new
debug PAL commands that can be used for testing.

 3. Both ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE and ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_ENABLE are set,
    it's "enabled".
 4. Both ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE and ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_WAKE_ENABLE are set,

Among other things, this prevents incorrect reporting of ACPI events

Dave Hansen 22b8ce9470 profiling: dynamically enable readprofile at runtime
Way too often, I have a machine that exhibits some kind of crappy
behavior.  The CPU looks wedged in the kernel or it is spending way too
much system time and I wonder what is responsible.

I try to run readprofile.  But, of course, Ubuntu doesn't enable it by
default.  Dang!

The reason we boot-time enable it is that it takes a big bufffer that we
generally can only bootmem alloc.  But, does it hurt to at least try and
runtime-alloc it?

To use:
echo 2 > /sys/kernel/profile

Then run readprofile like normal.

This should fix the compile issue with allmodconfig.  I've compile-tested
on a bunch more configs now including a few more architectures.

Badari Pulavarty 5c755e9fd8 memory-hotplug: add sysfs removable attribute for hotplug memory remove
Memory may be hot-removed on a per-memory-block basis, particularly on
POWER where the SPARSEMEM section size often matches the memory-block
size.  A user-level agent must be able to identify which sections of
memory are likely to be removable before attempting the potentially
expensive operation.  This patch adds a file called "removable" to the
memory directory in sysfs to help such an agent.  In this patch, a memory
block is considered removable if;

o It contains only MOVABLE pageblocks
o It contains only pageblocks with free pages regardless of pageblock type

On the other hand, a memory block starting with a PageReserved() page will
never be considered removable.  Without this patch, the user-agent is
forced to choose a memory block to remove randomly.

Sample output of the sysfs files:

./memory/memory0/removable: 0
./memory/memory1/removable: 0
./memory/memory2/removable: 0
./memory/memory3/removable: 0
./memory/memory4/removable: 0

Nishanth Aravamudan a343787016 hugetlb: new sysfs interface
Provide new hugepages user APIs that are more suited to multiple hstates
in sysfs.  There is a new directory, /sys/kernel/hugepages.  Underneath
that directory there will be a directory per-supported hugepage size,
e.g.:

/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64kB
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-16384kB
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-16777216kB

corresponding to 64k, 16m and 16g respectively.  Within each
hugepages-size directory there are a number of files, corresponding to the
tracked counters in the hstate, e.g.:

/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/nr_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/nr_overcommit_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/free_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/resv_hugepages
/sys/kernel/hugepages/hugepages-64/surplus_hugepages

Of these files, the first two are read-write and the latter three are
read-only.  The size of the hugepage being manipulated is trivially
deducible from the enclosing directory and is always expressed in kB (to
match meminfo).

Dan Williams e105b8bfc7 sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minor
Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path.  For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK?  With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.

What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
   the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
   seems counter productive.

2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
   udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
   environment like an initramfs.

3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

Bernhard Walle 69ac9cd629 sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmap
This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS
(or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like:

    /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start   (hex number)
                           end     (hex number)
                           type    (string)
    ...                 /1/start
                           end
                           type

With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form
the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map).

  --------- 8< --------------------------
    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/firmware/memmap
    for dir in * ; do
        start=$(cat $dir/start)
        end=$(cat $dir/end)
        type=$(cat $dir/type)
        printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
    done
  --------- >8 --------------------------

That patch only provides the needed interface:

 1. The sysfs interface.
 2. The structure and enumeration definition.
 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early()
    that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for
    example) to add the contents to the interface.

If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does
nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's.

The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents
the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap'
and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory
map provided via the firmware. So kexec can:

 - use the original memory map for rebooting,
 - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump
   case that should only represent the memory of the system.

The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

Miklos Szeredi 03fb0bce01 fuse: fix bdi naming conflict
Fuse allocates a separate bdi for each filesystem, and registers them
in sysfs with "MAJOR:MINOR" of sb->s_dev (st_dev).  This works fine for
anon devices normally used by fuse, but can conflict with an already
registered BDI for "fuseblk" filesystems, where sb->s_dev represents a
real block device.  In particularl this happens if a non-partitioned
device is being mounted.

Fix by registering with a different name for "fuseblk" filesystems.

Peter Zijlstra 189d3c4a94 mm: bdi: allow setting a minimum for the bdi dirty limit
Under normal circumstances each device is given a part of the total write-back
cache that relates to its current avg writeout speed in relation to the other
devices.

min_ratio - allows one to assign a minimum portion of the write-back cache to
a particular device.  This is useful in situations where you might want to
provide a minimum QoS.  (One request for this feature came from flash based
storage people who wanted to avoid writing out at all costs - they of course
needed some pdflush hacks as well)

max_ratio - allows one to assign a maximum portion of the dirty limit to a
particular device.  This is useful in situations where you want to avoid one
device taking all or most of the write-back cache.  Eg.  an NFS mount that is
prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount which you don't trust to play fair.

Add "min_ratio" to /sys/class/bdi.  This indicates the minimum percentage of
the global dirty threshold allocated to this bdi.

Ben Hutchings 94e6108803 PCI: Expose PCI VPD through sysfs
Vital Product Data (VPD) may be exposed by PCI devices in several
ways.  It is generally unsafe to read this information through the
existing interfaces to user-land because of stateful interfaces.

This adds:
- abstract operations for VPD access (struct pci_vpd_ops)
- VPD state information in struct pci_dev (struct pci_vpd)
- an implementation of the VPD access method specified in PCI 2.2
  (in access.c)
- a 'vpd' binary file in sysfs directories for PCI devices with VPD
  operations defined

It adds a probe for PCI 2.2 VPD in pci_scan_device() and release of
VPD state in pci_release_dev().

Konrad Rzeszutek 138fe4e069 Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT Support
Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
structure.

What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table?  It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target.  Currently the iSCSI
information is hard-coded in the initrd.  The /sysfs entries are read-only
one-name-and-value fields.

The usual set of data exposed is:

# for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do  echo -n "$a: ";  cat $a; done

Alan Stern b41a60eca8 USB: add power/persist device attribute
This patch (as920) adds an extra level of protection to the
USB-Persist facility.  Now it will apply by default only to hubs; for
all other devices the user must enable it explicitly by setting the
power/persist device attribute.

The disconnect_all_children() routine in hub.c has been removed and
its code placed inline.  This is the way it was originally as part of
hub_pre_reset(); the revised usage in hub_reset_resume() is
sufficiently different that the code can no longer be shared.
Likewise, mark_children_for_reset() is now inline as part of
hub_reset_resume().  The end result looks much cleaner than before.

The sysfs interface is updated to add the new attribute file, and
there are corresponding documentation updates.

Based on patch "the scheduled removal of RAW1394_REQ_ISO_{SEND,LISTEN}"
from Adrian Bunk, November 20 2006.

This patch also removes the underlying facilities in ohci1394 and
disables them in pcilynx.  That is, hpsb_host_driver.devctl() and
hpsb_host_driver.transmit_packet() are no longer used for iso reception
and transmission.

Since video1394 and dv1394 only work with ohci1394 and raw1394's rawiso
interface has never been implemented in pcilynx, pcilynx is now no
longer useful for isochronous applications.

raw1394 will still handle the request types but will complete the
requests with errors that indicate API version conflicts.

Add a swsusp debugging mode.  This does everything that's needed for a suspend
except for actually suspending.  So we can look in the log messages and work
out a) what code is being slow and b) which drivers are misbehaving.

(1)
# echo testproc > /sys/power/disk
# echo disk > /sys/power/state

This should turn off the non-boot CPU, freeze all processes, wait for 5
seconds and then thaw the processes and the CPU.

(2)
# echo test > /sys/power/disk
# echo disk > /sys/power/state
