pps gpio client: add missing dependency

2011-11-02T23:07:02Z

Add "depends on GENERIC_HARDIRQS" to avoid compile breakage on s390: drivers/built-in.o: In function `pps_gpio_remove': linux-next/drivers/pps/clients/pps-gpio.c:189: undefined reference to `free_irq' Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Cc: James Nuss Cc: Rodolfo Giometti Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

pps: new client driver using GPIO

2011-11-02T23:07:02Z

This client driver allows you to use a GPIO pin as a source for PPS signals. Platform data [1] are used to specify the GPIO pin number, label, assert event edge type, and whether clear events are captured. This driver is based on the work by Ricardo Martins who submitted an initial implementation [2] of a PPS IRQ client driver to the linuxpps mailing-list on Dec 3 2010.

pps: default echo function

2011-11-02T23:07:02Z

A default echo function has been provided so it is no longer an error when you specify PPS_ECHOASSERT or PPS_ECHOCLEAR without an explicit echo function. This allows some code re-use and also makes it easier to write client drivers since the default echo function does not normally need to change.

pps: make pps_gen_parport depend on BROKEN

2011-03-05T01:53:38Z

This driver causes hard lockups, when the active clock soure is jiffies. The reason is that it loops with interrupts disabled waiting for a timestamp to be reached by polling getnstimeofday(). Though with a jiffies clocksource, when that code runs on the same CPU which is responsible for updating jiffies, then we loop in circles for ever simply because the timer interrupt cannot update jiffies. So both UP and SMP can be affected. There is no easy fix for that problem so make it depend on BROKEN for now.

pps: claim parallel port exclusively

2011-01-26T00:50:00Z

Both pps_parport and pps_gen_parport are written in a way that they can't share a port with any other driver. This can result in locking up the process that loads modules or even the whole kernel if the modules are compiled in. Use PARPORT_FLAG_EXCL to indicate this.
