firmware: Create directories for external firmware

2014-07-09T13:16:35Z

Commit 5180d5f4 ("firmware: Simplify directory creation") broke including firmware specified in CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE: MK_FW firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S /bin/sh: firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S: No such file or directory ... firmware/Makefile:185: recipe for target 'firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S' failed It works with O= builds, because the directory is created by Makefile.build. Create the directory in firmware/Makefile in non-O builds. Reported-and-tested-by: Ronald Uitermark Reported-and-tested-by: Torsten Kaiser Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek: "Kbuild changes for v3.16-rc1: - cross-compilation fix so that cc-option is testing the right compiler - Fix for make defconfig all - Using relative paths to the object and source directory where possible, plus fixes for the fallout of the change - several cleanups in the Makefiles and scripts The powerpc fix is from today, because it was only discovered recently. The rest has been in linux-next for some time" * 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: powerpc: Avoid circular dependency with zImage.% kbuild: create include/config directory in scripts/kconfig/Makefile kbuild: do not create include/linux directory Makefile: Fix unrecognized cross-compiler command line options kbuild: do not add "selinux" to subdir- twice um: Fix for relative objtree when generating x86 headers kbuild: Use relative path when building in a subdir of the source tree kbuild: Use relative path when building in the source tree kbuild: Use relative path for $(objtree) firmware: Use $(quote) in the Makefile firmware: Simplify directory creation kbuild: trivial - fix comment block indent kbuild: trivial - remove trailing spaces kbuild: support simultaneous "make %config" and "make all" kbuild: move extra gcc checks to scripts/Makefile.extrawarn

firmware: Simplify directory creation

2014-05-14T20:43:04Z

When building the firmware blobs, use a simple loop to create directories in $(objtree), like in Makefile.build. This simplifies the rules and also makes it possible to set $(objtree) to '.' later. Before this change, a dependency on $(objtree)/ would be satisfied by in $(srctree). When installing the firmware blobs, call mkdir like in Makefile.modinst.

Documentation/serial: Delete obsolete driver documentation

2014-04-16T21:20:34Z

These serial drivers were removed in kernel v3.1, so we can drop their documentation files and references to their magic numbers and parameters. There are still references to these old drivers in Documentation/devices.txt but I'm afraid they can't be removed.

USB: emi62: Provide the correct bitstream firmware

2013-12-11T06:38:45Z

Commit b8e24bfabb03 ('emi62: use request_firmware()') made emi62/bitstream.HEX a copy of emi26/bitstream.HEX. Re-do the conversion from drivers/usb/misc/emi62_fw_{m,s}.h (these headers contained the same bitstream but different firmware). This produces an identical blob to the known working version in http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/emagic/emi-20131209.tgz Reported-by: Monty Cc: David Woodhouse Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware,IB/qib: revert firmware file move

2013-04-05T19:19:39Z

Commit e2eed58b4fbf ("IB/qib: change QLogic to Intel") moved a firmware file potentially breaking the ABI. This patch reverts that aspect of the fix as well as reverting the firmware name as used in qib. Reported-by: David Woodhouse Signed-off-by: Mike Marciniszyn Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Pull networking changes from David Miller: 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov. 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman. 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko. 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar. 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy. 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others. 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel Borkmann. 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet. 12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation. From Stephen Hemminger. 13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around. Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user namespace changes. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1012 commits) hyperv: Add buffer for extended info after the RNDIS response message. hyperv: Report actual status in receive completion packet hyperv: Remove extra allocated space for recv_pkt_list elements hyperv: Fix page buffer handling in rndis_filter_send_request() hyperv: Fix the missing return value in rndis_filter_set_packet_filter() hyperv: Fix the max_xfer_size in RNDIS initialization vxlan: put UDP socket in correct namespace vxlan: Depend on CONFIG_INET sfc: Fix the reported priorities of different filter types sfc: Remove EFX_FILTER_FLAG_RX_OVERRIDE_IP sfc: Fix loopback self-test with separate_tx_channels=1 sfc: Fix MCDI structure field lookup sfc: Add parentheses around use of bitfield macro arguments sfc: Fix null function pointer in efx_sriov_channel_type vxlan: virtual extensible lan igmp: export symbol ip_mc_leave_group netlink: add attributes to fdb interface tg3: unconditionally select HWMON support when tg3 is enabled.
