2013-09-24Add a generic associative array implementation.David Howells
Add a generic associative array implementation that can be used as the container for keyrings, thereby massively increasing the capacity available whilst also speeding up searching in keyrings that contain a lot of keys. This may also be useful in FS-Cache for tracking cookies. Documentation is added into Documentation/associative_array.txt Some of the properties of the implementation are: (1) Objects are opaque pointers. The implementation does not care where they point (if anywhere) or what they point to (if anything). [!] NOTE: Pointers to objects _must_ be zero in the two least significant bits. (2) Objects do not need to contain linkage blocks for use by the array. This permits an object to be located in multiple arrays simultaneously. Rather, the array is made up of metadata blocks that point to objects. (3) Objects are labelled as being one of two types (the type is a bool value). This information is stored in the array, but has no consequence to the array itself or its algorithms. (4) Objects require index keys to locate them within the array. (5) Index keys must be unique. Inserting an object with the same key as one already in the array will replace the old object. (6) Index keys can be of any length and can be of different lengths. (7) Index keys should encode the length early on, before any variation due to length is seen. (8) Index keys can include a hash to scatter objects throughout the array. (9) The array can iterated over. The objects will not necessarily come out in key order. (10) The array can be iterated whilst it is being modified, provided the RCU readlock is being held by the iterator. Note, however, under these circumstances, some objects may be seen more than once. If this is a problem, the iterator should lock against modification. Objects will not be missed, however, unless deleted. (11) Objects in the array can be looked up by means of their index key. (12) Objects can be looked up whilst the array is being modified, provided the RCU readlock is being held by the thread doing the look up. The implementation uses a tree of 16-pointer nodes internally that are indexed on each level by nibbles from the index key. To improve memory efficiency, shortcuts can be emplaced to skip over what would otherwise be a series of single-occupancy nodes. Further, nodes pack leaf object pointers into spare space in the node rather than making an extra branch until as such time an object needs to be added to a full node.

2013-09-24KEYS: Define a __key_get() wrapper to use rather than atomic_inc()David Howells
Define a __key_get() wrapper to use rather than atomic_inc() on the key usage count as this makes it easier to hook in refcount error debugging. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2013-09-24KEYS: Introduce a search context structureDavid Howells
Search functions pass around a bunch of arguments, each of which gets copied with each call. Introduce a search context structure to hold these. Whilst we're at it, create a search flag that indicates whether the search should be directly to the description or whether it should iterate through all keys looking for a non-description match. This will be useful when keyrings use a generic data struct with generic routines to manage their content as the search terms can just be passed through to the iterator callback function. Also, for future use, the data to be supplied to the match function is separated from the description pointer in the search context. This makes it clear which is being supplied.

2013-09-24KEYS: Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for key accessDavid Howells
Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for accessing keys. The index key is the search term needed to find a key directly - basically the key type and the key description. We can add to that the description length. This will be useful when turning a keyring into an associative array rather than just a pointer block. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

2013-09-24gpio: davinci: move to platform deviceKV Sujith
Modify DaVinci GPIO driver to become a platform device driver. The driver does not have platform driver structure or a probe. Instead, it has pure_initcall function for initialization. The platform specific informaiton is obtained using the DaVinci specific davinci_soc_info structure. This is a problem for Device Tree (DT) implementation. As a first stage of DT conversion, we implement a probe. Additional notes: - The driver registration happens as postcore_initcall. This is required since machine init functions like da850_lcd_hw_init() make use of GPIO. - Start using devres APIs for simpler error handling.

2013-09-24ACPICA: Add support for host-installed SCI handlers.Lv Zheng
This change adds support to allow hosts to install System Control Interrupt handlers. Certain ACPI functionality requires the host to handle raw SCIs. For example, the "SCI Doorbell" that is defined for memory power state support requires the host device driver to handle SCIs to examine if the doorbell has been activated. Multiple SCI handlers can be installed to allow for future expansion. Debugger support is included. Lv Zheng, Bob Moore. ACPICA BZ 1032. Bug summary: It is reported when the PCC (Platform Communication Channel, via MPST table, defined in ACPI specification 5.0) subchannel responds to the host, it issues an SCI and the host must probe the subchannel for channel status.

2013-09-23ARM: bL_switcher/trace: Add trace trigger for trace bootstrappingDave Martin
When tracing switching, an external tracer needs a way to bootstrap its knowledge of the logical<->physical CPU mapping. This patch adds a sysfs attribute trace_trigger. A write to this attribute will generate a power:cpu_migrate_current event for each online CPU, indicating the current physical CPU for each logical CPU. Activating or deactivating the switcher also generates these events, so that the tracer knows about the resulting remapping of affected CPUs. Signed-off-by: Dave Martin <dave.martin@linaro.org>
2013-09-23ARM: bL_switcher: Basic trace events supportDave Martin
This patch adds simple trace events to the b.L switcher code to allow tracing of CPU migration events. To make use of the trace events, you will need: CONFIG_FTRACE=y CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS=y The following events are added: * power:cpu_migrate_begin * power:cpu_migrate_finish each with the following data: u64 timestamp; u32 cpu_hwid; power:cpu_migrate_begin occurs immediately before the switcher-specific migration operations start. power:cpu_migrate_finish occurs immediately when migration is completed. The cpu_hwid field contains the ID fields of the MPIDR. * For power:cpu_migrate_begin, cpu_hwid is the ID of the outbound physical CPU (equivalent to (from_phys_cpu,from_phys_cluster)). * For power:cpu_migrate_finish, cpu_hwid is the ID of the inbound physical CPU (equivalent to (to_phys_cpu,to_phys_cluster)). By design, the cpu_hwid field is masked in the same way as the device tree cpu node reg property, allowing direct correlation to the DT description of the hardware. The timestamp is added in order to minimise timing noise. An accurate system-wide clock should be used for generating this (hopefully getnstimeofday is appropriate, but it could be changed). It could be any monotonic shared clock, since the aim is to allow accurate deltas to be computed. We don't necessarily care about accurate synchronisation with wall clock time. In practice, each switch takes place on a single logical CPU, and the trace infrastructure should guarantee that events are well-ordered with respect to a single logical CPU.

2013-09-23ARM: GIC: interface to send a SGI directlyNicolas Pitre
The regular gic_raise_softirq() takes as input a CPU mask which is not adequate when we need to send an IPI to a CPU which is not represented in the kernel to GIC mapping.

2013-09-23ARM: GIC: function to retrieve the physical address of the SGIRNicolas Pitre
