* documentation: drivers/core/of: fix name of of_node symlinkMartin Fuzzey2016-08-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | commit 5590f3196b29 ("drivers/core/of: Add symlink to device-tree from devices with an OF node") added a symlink called "of_node" to sysfs however the documentation describes it as "of_path". Fix the documentation to match what the code actually does.

* drivers/core/of: Add symlink to device-tree from devices with an OF nodeBenjamin Herrenschmidt2015-03-251-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So I've been annoyed lately with having a bunch of devices such as i2c eeproms (for use by VPDs, server world !) and other bits and pieces that I want to be able to identify from userspace, and possibly provide additional data about from FW. Basically, it boils down to correlating the sysfs device with the OF tree device node, so that user space can use device-tree info such as additional "location" or "label" (or whatever else we can come up with) propreties to identify a given device, or get some attributes of use about it, etc... Now, so far, we've done that in some subsystem in a fairly ad-hoc basis using "devspec" properties. For example, PCI creates them if it can correlate the probed device with a DT node. Some powerpc specific busses do that too. However, i2c doesn't and it would be nice to have something more generic since technically any device can have a corresponding device tree node. This patch adds an "of_node" symlink to devices that have a non-NULL dev->of_node pointer, the patch is pretty trivial and seems to work just fine for me.

* tpm: device class for tpmJarkko Sakkinen2015-01-171-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added own device class for TPM. Uses MISC_MAJOR:TPM_MINOR for the first character device in order to retain backwards compatibility. Added tpm_dev_release() back attached to the character device. I've been running this code now for a while on my laptop (Lenovo T430S) TrouSerS works perfectly without modifications. I don't believe it breaks anything significantly. The sysfs attributes that have been placed under the wrong place and are against sysfs-rules.txt should be probably left to stagnate under platform device directory and start defining new sysfs attributes to the char device directory. Guidelines for future TPM sysfs attributes should be probably along the lines of - Single flat set of mandatory sysfs attributes. For example, current PPI interface is way way too rich when you only want to use it to clear and activate the TPM. - Define sysfs attribute if and only if there's no way to get the value from ring-3. No attributes for TPM properties. It's just unnecessary maintenance hurdle that we don't want.

The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified interface for accessing device properties provided by platform firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary in some cases. This has been in the works for quite a few months (and development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant maintainers. On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface (at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines (in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it knows about the device in question). That also has been approved by the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use it. Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver. It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However, it can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary. Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms. That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting and so on. Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller). The support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some other use cases in the future. Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor. In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream release. As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should handle some more corner cases, among other things. On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and strange looking failures on some systems. In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration option. That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic power domains code during which we realized that trying to support certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway. For this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it. The material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of the merge window. Specifics: - Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD device configuration objects and a unified device properties interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that. As stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI) agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not present or does not provide the expected data). The changes in this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie. - New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie). - Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms for power resource control and thermal management (Aaron Lu). - Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan Tianyu). - New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung). - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects tools (Bob Moore). - Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume (Lv Zheng and Rafael J Wysocki). - ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go away. From Konstantin Khlebnikov. - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly. The problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support of its own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device having ACPI PM support goes into D3cold.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve performance by using multiple RDMA/RC channels per SCSI host for communication with an SRP target. About the implementation: - Introduce a loop over all channels in the code that uses target->ch. - Set the SRP_MULTICHAN_MULTI flag during login for the creation of the second and subsequent channels. - RDMA completion vectors are chosen such that RDMA completion interrupts are handled by the CPU socket that submitted the I/O request. As one can see in this patch it has been assumed if a system contains n CPU sockets and m RDMA completion vectors have been assigned to an RDMA HCA that IRQ affinity has been configured such that completion vectors [i*m/n..(i+1)*m/n) are bound to CPU socket i with 0 <= i < n. - Modify srp_free_ch_ib() and srp_free_req_data() such that it becomes safe to invoke these functions after the corresponding allocation function failed. - Add a ch_count sysfs attribute per target port.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This enables support for userspace to fetch and initiate FSP and Platform dumps from the service processor (via firmware) through sysfs. Based on original patch from Vasant Hegde <hegdevasant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Flow: - We register for OPAL notification events. - OPAL sends new dump available notification. - We make information on dump available via sysfs - Userspace requests dump contents - We retrieve the dump via OPAL interface - User copies the dump data - userspace sends ack for dump - We send ACK to OPAL. sysfs files: - We add the /sys/firmware/opal/dump directory - echoing 1 (well, anything, but in future we may support different dump types) to /sys/firmware/opal/dump/initiate_dump will initiate a dump. - Each dump that we've been notified of gets a directory in /sys/firmware/opal/dump/ with a name of the dump type and ID (in hex, as this is what's used elsewhere to identify the dump). - Each dump has files: id, type, dump and acknowledge dump is binary and is the dump itself. echoing 'ack' to acknowledge (currently any string will do) will acknowledge the dump and it will soon after disappear from sysfs. OPAL APIs: - opal_dump_init() - opal_dump_info() - opal_dump_read() - opal_dump_ack() - opal_dump_resend_notification() Currently we are only ever notified for one dump at a time (until the user explicitly acks the current dump, then we get a notification of the next dump), but this kernel code should "just work" when OPAL starts notifying us of all the dumps present.

* powerpc/powernv: Read OPAL error log and export it through sysfsStewart Smith2014-03-071-0/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on a patch by: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> This patch adds support to read error logs from OPAL and export them to userspace through a sysfs interface. We export each log entry as a directory in /sys/firmware/opal/elog/ Currently, OPAL will buffer up to 128 error log records, we don't need to have any knowledge of this limit on the Linux side as that is actually largely transparent to us. Each error log entry has the following files: id, type, acknowledge, raw. Currently we just export the raw binary error log in the 'raw' attribute. In a future patch, we may parse more of the error log to make it a bit easier for userspace (e.g. to be able to display a brief summary in petitboot without having to have a full parser). If we have >128 logs from OPAL, we'll only be notified of 128 until userspace starts acknowledging them. This limitation may be lifted in the future and with this patch, that should "just work" from the linux side. A userspace daemon should: - wait for error log entries using normal mechanisms (we announce creation) - read error log entry - save error log entry safely to disk - acknowledge the error log entry - rinse, repeat. On the Linux side, we read the error log when we're notified of it. This possibly isn't ideal as it would be better to only read them on-demand. However, this doesn't really work with current OPAL interface, so we read the error log immediately when notified at the moment. I've tested this pretty extensively and am rather confident that the linux side of things works rather well. There is currently an issue with the service processor side of things for >128 error logs though.
