2011-10-31epoll: fix spurious lockdep warningsNelson Elhage
epoll can acquire recursively acquire ep->mtx on multiple "struct eventpoll"s at once in the case where one epoll fd is monitoring another epoll fd. This is perfectly OK, since we're careful about the lock ordering, but it causes spurious lockdep warnings. Annotate the recursion using mutex_lock_nested, and add a comment explaining the nesting rules for good measure. Recent versions of systemd are triggering this, and it can also be demonstrated with the following trivial test program: --------------------8<-------------------- int main(void) { int e1, e2; struct epoll_event evt = { .events = EPOLLIN }; e1 = epoll_create1(0); e2 = epoll_create1(0); epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt); return 0; } --------------------8<-------------------- Reported-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Tested-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Nelson Elhage <nelhage@nelhage.com> Acked-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-10-31lib/string.c: fix strim() semantics for strings that have only blanksMichael Holzheu
Commit 84c95c9acf0 ("string: on strstrip(), first remove leading spaces before running over str") improved the performance of the strim() function. Unfortunately this changed the semantics of strim() and broke my code. Before the patch it was possible to use strim() without using the return value for removing trailing spaces from strings that had either only blanks or only trailing blanks. Now this does not work any longer for strings that *only* have blanks. Before patch: " " -> "" (empty string) After patch: " " -> " " (no change) I think we should remove your patch to restore the old behavior. The description (lib/string.c): * Note that the first trailing whitespace is replaced with a %NUL-terminator => The first trailing whitespace of a string that only has whitespace characters is the first whitespace The patch restores the old strim() semantics.

2011-10-31lib/bitmap.c: quiet sparse noise about address spaceH Hartley Sweeten
__bitmap_parse() and __bitmap_parselist() both take a pointer to a kernel buffer as a parameter and then cast it to a pointer to user buffer for use in cases when the parameter is_user indicates that the buffer is actually located in user space. This casting, and the casts in the callers, results in sparse noise like the following: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) expected char const [noderef] <asn:1>*ubuf got char const *buf warning: cast removes address space of expression Since these casts are intentional, use __force to quiet the noise.

2011-10-31leds: Renesas TPU LED driverMagnus Damm
Add V2 of the LED driver for a single timer channel for the TPU hardware block commonly found in Renesas SoCs. The driver has been written with optimal Power Management in mind, so to save power the LED is driven as a regular GPIO pin in case of maximum brightness and power off which allows the TPU hardware to be idle and which in turn allows the clocks to be stopped and the power domain to be turned off transparently. Any other brightness level requires use of the TPU hardware in PWM mode. TPU hardware device clocks and power are managed through Runtime PM. System suspend and resume is known to be working - during suspend the LED is set to off by the generic LED code. The TPU hardware timer is equipeed with a 16-bit counter together with an up-to-divide-by-64 prescaler which makes the hardware suitable for brightness control. Hardware blink is unsupported. The LED PWM waveform has been verified with a Fluke 123 Scope meter on a sh7372 Mackerel board. Tested with experimental sh7372 A3SP power domain patches. Platform device bind/unbind tested ok. V2 has been tested on the DS2 LED of the sh73a0-based AG5EVM.

2011-10-31backlight: fix broken regulator API usage in l4f00242t03Mark Brown
The regulator support in the l4f00242t03 is very non-idiomatic. Rather than requesting the regulators based on the device name and the supply names used by the device the driver requires boards to pass system specific supply names around through platform data. The driver also conditionally requests the regulators based on this platform data, adding unneeded conditional code to the driver. Fix this by removing the platform data and converting to the standard idiom, also updating all in tree users of the driver. As no datasheet appears to be available for the LCD I'm guessing the names for the supplies based on the existing users and I've no ability to do anything more than compile test. The use of regulator_set_voltage() in the driver is also problematic, since fixed voltages are required the expectation would be that the voltages would be fixed in the constraints set by the machines rather than manually configured by the driver, but is less problematic.

Currently log_prefix is testing that the first character of the log level and facility is less than '0' and greater than '9' (which is always false). It should be testing to see if the character less than '0' or greater than '9' instead. This patch makes that change. The code being changed worked because strtoul bombs out (endp isn't updated) and 0 is returned anyway.

2011-10-31kernel/sysctl.c: add cap_last_cap to /proc/sys/kernelDan Ballard
Userspace needs to know the highest valid capability of the running kernel, which right now cannot reliably be retrieved from the header files only. The fact that this value cannot be determined properly right now creates various problems for libraries compiled on newer header files which are run on older kernels. They assume capabilities are available which actually aren't. libcap-ng is one example. And we ran into the same problem with systemd too. Now the capability is exported in /proc/sys/kernel/cap_last_cap.

2011-10-31stop_machine: make stop_machine safe and efficient to call earlyJeremy Fitzhardinge
Make stop_machine() safe to call early in boot, before SMP has been set up, by simply calling the callback function directly if there's only one CPU online. [ Fixes from AKPM: - add comment - local_irq_flags, not save_flags - also call hard_irq_disable() for systems which need it Tejun suggested using an explicit flag rather than just looking at the online cpu count. ] Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: H.

2011-10-31lis3lv02d: make regulator API usage unconditionalMark Brown
The regulator API contains a range of features for stubbing itself out when not in use and for transparently restricting the actual effect of regulator API calls where they can't be supported on a particular system so that drivers don't need to individually implement this. Simplify the driver slightly by making use of this idiom. The only in tree user is ecovec24 which does not use the regulator API.
