This adds a KERN_DEFAULT loglevel marker, for when you cannot decide
which loglevel you want, and just want to keep an existing printk
with the default loglevel.
The difference between having KERN_DEFAULT and having no log-level
marker at all is two-fold:
- having the log-level marker will now force a new-line if the
previous printout had not added one (perhaps because it forgot,
but perhaps because it expected a continuation)
- having a log-level marker is required if you are printing out a
message that otherwise itself could perhaps otherwise be mistaken
for a log-level.
Signed-of-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
It used to be that we would only look at the log-level in a printk()
after explicit newlines, which can cause annoying problems when the
previous printk() did not end with a '\n'. In that case, the log-level
marker would be just printed out in the middle of the line, and be
seen as just noise rather than change the logging level.
This changes things to always look at the log-level in the first
bytes of the printout. If a log level marker is found, it is always
used as the log-level. Additionally, if no newline existed, one is
added (unless the log-level is the explicit KERN_CONT marker, to
explicitly show that it's a continuation of a previous line).

This is the original patch I created before David Vrabel posted a better
patch (http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=123377477209109&w=2) that does
basically the same thing. This patch will get replaced with his
(modified) patch later.
Allow USB device drivers that use usb_sg_init() and usb_sg_wait() to push
bulk endpoint scatter gather lists down to the host controller drivers.
This allows host controller drivers to more efficiently enqueue these
transfers, and allows the xHCI host controller to better take advantage of
USB 3.0 "bursts" for bulk endpoints.
This patch currently only enables scatter gather lists for bulk endpoints.
Other endpoint types that use the usb_sg_* functions will not have their
scatter gather lists pushed down to the host controller. For periodic
endpoints, we want each scatterlist entry to be a separate transfer.
Eventually, HCDs could parse these scatter-gather lists for periodic
endpoints also. For now, we use the old code and call usb_submit_urb()
for each scatterlist entry.
The caller of usb_sg_init() can request that all bytes in the scatter
gather list be transferred by passing in a length of zero. Handle that
request for a bulk endpoint under xHCI by walking the scatter gather list
and calculating the length. We could let the HCD handle a zero length in
this case, but I'm not sure if the core layers in between will get
confused by this.

The USB 3.0 bus specification added an "Endpoint Companion" descriptor that is
supposed to follow all SuperSpeed Endpoint descriptors. This descriptor is used
to extend the bus protocol to allow more packets to be sent to an endpoint per
"microframe". The word microframe was removed from the USB 3.0 specification
because the host controller does not send Start Of Frame (SOF) symbols down the
USB 3.0 wires.
The descriptor defines a bMaxBurst field, which indicates the number of packets
of wMaxPacketSize that a SuperSpeed device can send or recieve in a service
interval. All non-control endpoints may set this value as high as 16 packets
(bMaxBurst = 15).
The descriptor also allows isochronous endpoints to further specify that they
can send and receive multiple bursts per service interval. The bmAttributes
allows them to specify a "Mult" of up to 3 (bmAttributes = 2).
Bulk endpoints use bmAttributes to report the number of "Streams" they support.
This was an extension of the endpoint pipe concept to allow multiple mass
storage device commands to be outstanding for one bulk endpoint at a time. This
should allow USB 3.0 mass storage devices to support SCSI command queueing.
Bulk endpoints can say they support up to 2^16 (65,536) streams.
The information in the endpoint companion descriptor must be stored with the
other device, config, interface, and endpoint descriptors because the host
controller needs to access them quickly, and we need to install some default
values if a SuperSpeed device doesn't provide an endpoint companion descriptor.

Warn users of URB_NO_SETUP_DMA_MAP about xHCI behavior.
Device drivers can choose to DMA map the setup packet of a control transfer
before submitting the URB to the USB core. Drivers then set the
URB_NO_SETUP_DMA_MAP and pass in the DMA memory address in setup_dma, instead of
providing a kernel address for setup_packet. However, xHCI requires that the
setup packet be copied into an internal data structure, and we need a kernel
memory address pointer for that. Warn users of URB_NO_SETUP_DMA_MAP that they
should provide a valid pointer for setup_packet, along with the DMA address.
FIXME: I'm not entirely sure how to work around this in the xHCI driver
or USB core.

Add host controller driver API and a slot_id variable to struct
usb_device. This allows the xHCI host controller driver to ask the
hardware to allocate a slot for the device when a struct usb_device is
allocated. The slot needs to be allocated at that point because the
hardware can run out of internal resources, and we want to know that very
early in the device connection process. Don't call this new API for root
hubs, since they aren't real devices.
Add HCD API to let the host controller choose the device address. This is
especially important for xHCI hardware running in a virtualized
environment. The guests running under the VM don't need to know which
addresses on the bus are taken, because the hardware picks the address for
them. Announce SuperSpeed USB devices after the address has been assigned
by the hardware.
Don't use the new get descriptor/set address scheme with xHCI. Unless
special handling is done in the host controller driver, the xHC can't
issue control transfers before you set the device address. Support for
the older addressing scheme will be added when the xHCI driver supports
the Block Set Address Request (BSR) flag in the Address Device command.

This patch adds a hex route string to each USB device. The route string is used
by the USB 3.0 host controller to send packets through the device tree. USB 3.0
hubs use this string to route packets to the correct port. This is fundamental
bus change from USB 2.0, where all packets were broadcast across the bus.
Devices (including hubs) under a root port receive the route string 0x0. Every
four bits in the route string represent a port on a hub. This length works
because USB 3.0 hubs are limited to 15 ports, and USB 2.0 hubs (with potentially
more ports) will never see packets with a route string. A port number of 0
means the packet is destined for that hub.
For example, a peripheral device might have a route string of 0x00097.
This means the device is connected to port 9 of the hub at depth 1.
The hub at depth 1 is connected to port 7 of a hub at depth 0.
The hub at depth 0 is connected to a root port.

Modify the USB core to handle the new USB 3.0 speed, "SuperSpeed". This
is 5.0 Gbps (wire speed). There are probably more places that check for
speed that I've missed.
SuperSpeed devices have a 512 byte endpoint 0 max packet size. This shows
up as a bMaxPacketSize0 set to 0x09 (see table 9-8 of the USB 3.0 bus
spec).
xHCI spec says that the xHC can handle intervals up to 2^15 microframes. That
might change when real silicon becomes available.
Add FIXME note for SuperSpeed isochronous endpoints. They can transmit up
to 16 packets in one "burst" before they wait for an acknowledgment of the
packets. They can do up to 3 bursts per microframe (determined by the
mult value in the endpoint companion descriptor). The xHCI driver doesn't
have support for isoc yet, so fix this later.

The usb_debug driver was modified to implement serial break handling
by using a "magic" data packet comprised of the sequence:
0x00 0xff 0x01 0xfe 0x00 0xfe 0x01 0xff
When the tty layer requests a serial break the usb_debug driver sends
the magic packet. On the receiving side the magic packet is thrown
away or a sysrq is activated depending on what kernel .config options
have been set.
The generic serial driver was modified as well as the usb serial
headers to generically implement sysrq processing in the same way the
non usb uart based drivers implement the sysrq handling. This will
allow other usb serial devices to implement sysrq handling as desired.
The new usb serial functions are named similarly and implemented
similarly to the uart functions as follows:
usb_serial_handle_break <-> uart_handle_break
usb_serial_handle_sysrq_char <-> uart_handle_sysrq_char

The usb_debug driver, when used as the console, will always fail to
insert the carriage return and new line sequence as well as randomly
drop console output. This is a result of only having the single
write_urb and that the tty layer will have a lock that prevents the
processing of the back to back urb requests.
The solution is to allow more than one urb to be outstanding and have
a slightly deeper transmit queue. The idea and some code is borrowed
from the ftdi_sio usb driver.
The generic usb serial driver was modified so as to allow the classic
method of 1 write urb, or a multi write urb scheme with N allowed
outstanding urbs where N is controlled by max_in_flight_urbs. When
max_in_flight_urbs in a "struct usb_serial_driver" is non zero the
multi write urb scheme will be used.
The size of 4000 was selected for the usb_debug driver so that the
driver lowers possibility of losing the queued console messages during
the kernel startup.

This patch (as1239) updates the kernel's treatment of Unicode. The
character-set conversion routines are well behind the current state of
the Unicode specification: They don't recognize the existence of code
points beyond plane 0 or of surrogate pairs in the UTF-16 encoding.
The old wchar_t 16-bit type is retained because it's still used in
lots of places. This shouldn't cause any new problems; if a
conversion now results in an invalid 16-bit code then before it must
have yielded an undefined code.
Difficult-to-read names like "utf_mbstowcs" are replaced with more
transparent names like "utf8s_to_utf16s" and the ordering of the
parameters is rationalized (buffer lengths come immediate after the
pointers they refer to, and the inputs precede the outputs).
Fortunately the low-level conversion routines are used in only a few
places; the interfaces to the higher-level uni2char and char2uni
methods have been left unchanged.

During bootup performance tracing we see repeated occurrences of
/sys/kernel/uid/* events for the same uid, leading to a,
in this case, rather pointless userspace processing for the
same uid over and over.
This is usually caused by tools which change their uid to "nobody",
to run without privileges to read data supplied by untrusted users.
This change delays the execution of the (already existing) scheduled
work, to cleanup the uid after one second, so the allocated and announced
uid can possibly be re-used by another process.
This is the current behavior, where almost every invocation of a
binary, which changes the uid, creates two events:
$ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
echo $(($END - $START))
178
With the delayed cleanup, we get only two events, and userspace finishes
a bit faster too:
