This interface is like a message passing interface. This management partition is intended to provide an alternative to HMC-based system management. VMC enables the Management LPAR to provide basic logical partition functions: - Logical Partition Configuration - Boot, start, and stop actions for individual partitions - Display of partition status - Management of virtual Ethernet - Management of virtual Storage - Basic system management This driver is to be used for the POWER Virtual Management Channel Virtual Adapter on the PowerPC platform. It provides a character device which allows for both request/response and async message support through the /dev/ibmvmc node. Signed-off-by: Bryant G.

With this cycle we begin to integrate online filesystem repair and refactor the growfs code in preparation for eventual subvolume support, though the road ahead for both features is quite long. There are also numerous refactorings of the iomap code to remove unnecessary log overhead, to disentangle some of the quota code, and to prepare for buffer head removal in a future upstream kernel. Metadata validation continues to improve, both in the hot path veifiers and the online filesystem check code. I anticipate sending a second pull request in a few days with more metadata validation improvements. This series has been run through a full xfstests run over the weekend and through a quick xfstests run against this morning's master, with no major failures reported. Summary: - Strengthen inode number and structure validation when allocating inodes. - Reduce pointless buffer allocations during cache miss - Use FUA for pure data O_DSYNC directio writes - Various iomap refactorings - Strengthen quota metadata verification to avoid unfixable broken quota - Make AGFL block freeing a deferred operation to avoid blowing out transaction reservations when running complex operations - Get rid of the log item descriptors to reduce log overhead - Fix various reflink bugs where inodes were double-joined to transactions - Don't issue discards when trimming unwritten extents - Refactor incore dquot initialization and retrieval interfaces - Fix some locking problmes in the quota scrub code - Strengthen btree structure checks in scrub code - Rewrite swapfile activation to use iomap and support unwritten extents - Make scrub exit to userspace sooner when corruptions or cross-referencing problems are found - Make scrub invoke the data fork scrubber directly on metadata inodes - Don't do background reclamation of post-eof and cow blocks when the fs is suspended - Fix secondary superblock buffer lifespan hinting - Refactor growfs to use table-dispatched functions instead of long stringy functions - Move growfs code to libxfs - Implement online fs label getting and setting - Introduce online filesystem repair (in a very limited capacity) - Fix unit conversion problems in the realtime freemap iteration functions - Various refactorings and cleanups in preparation to remove buffer heads in a future release - Reimplement the old bmap call with iomap - Remove direct buffer head accesses from seek hole/data - Various bug fixes" * tag 'xfs-4.18-merge-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: (121 commits) fs: use ->is_partially_uptodate in page_cache_seek_hole_data fs: remove the buffer_unwritten check in page_seek_hole_data fs: move page_cache_seek_hole_data to iomap.c xfs: use iomap_bmap iomap: add an iomap-based bmap implementation iomap: add a iomap_sector helper iomap: use __bio_add_page in iomap_dio_zero iomap: move IOMAP_F_BOUNDARY to gfs2 iomap: fix the comment describing IOMAP_NOWAIT iomap: inline data should be an iomap type, not a flag mm: split ->readpages calls to avoid non-contiguous pages lists mm: return an unsigned int from __do_page_cache_readahead mm: give the 'ret' variable a better name __do_page_cache_readahead block: add a lower-level bio_add_page interface xfs: fix error handling in xfs_refcount_insert() xfs: fix xfs_rtalloc_rec units xfs: strengthen rtalloc query range checks xfs: xfs_rtbuf_get should check the bmapi_read results xfs: xfs_rtword_t should be unsigned, not signed dax: change bdev_dax_supported() to support boolean returns ...

* arch: remove tile portArnd Bergmann2018-03-161-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Tile architecture port was added by Chris Metcalf in 2010, and maintained until early 2018 when he orphaned it due to his departure from Mellanox, and nobody else stepped up to maintain it. The product line is still around in the form of the BlueField SoC, but no longer uses the Tile architecture. There are also still products for sale with Tile-GX SoCs, notably the Mikrotik CCR router family. The products all use old (linux-3.3) kernels with lots of patches and won't be upgraded by their manufacturers. There have been efforts to port both OpenWRT and Debian to these, but both projects have stalled and are very unlikely to be continued in the future. Given that we are reasonably sure that nobody is still using the port with an upstream kernel any more, it seems better to remove it now while the port is in a good shape than to let it bitrot for a few years first.

I'm sending it separately from the other arm-soc driver changes to give it a little more visibility, once the subsystem is merged, we will likely keep this in the arm₋soc drivers branch or have the maintainers submit pull requests directly, depending on the patch volume. I have reviewed earlier versions in the past, and have reviewed the latest version in person during Linaro Connect BUD17. Here is my overall assessment of the subsystem: - There is clearly demand for this, both for the generic infrastructure and the specific OP-TEE implementation. - The code has gone through a large number of reviews, and the review comments have all been addressed, but the reviews were not coming up with serious issues any more and nobody volunteered to vouch for the quality. - The user space ioctl interface is sufficient to work with the OP-TEE driver, and it should in principle work with other TEE implementations that follow the GlobalPlatform[1] standards, but it might need to be extended in minor ways depending on specific requirements of future TEE implementations - The main downside of the API to me is how the user space is tied to the TEE implementation in hardware or firmware, but uses a generic way to communicate with it. This seems to be an inherent problem with what it is trying to do, and I could not come up with any better solution than what is implemented here.

It provides a control interface, allowing userspace to export endpoints and an endpoint interface for each exposed endpoint. The implementation is based on prior art by Texas Instrument, Google, PetaLogix and was derived from a FreeRTOS performance statistics driver written by Michal Simek. The control interface provides a "create endpoint" ioctl, which is fed a name, source and destination address. The three values are used to create the endpoint, in a backend-specific way, and a rpmsg endpoint device is created - with the three parameters are available in sysfs for udev usage. E.g. to create an endpoint device for one of the Qualcomm SMD channel related to DIAG one would issue: struct rpmsg_endpoint_info info = { "DIAG_CNTL", 0, 0 }; int fd = open("/dev/rpmsg_ctrl0", O_RDWR); ioctl(fd, RPMSG_CREATE_EPT_IOCTL, &info); Each created endpoint device shows up as an individual character device in /dev, allowing permission to be controlled on a per-endpoint basis. The rpmsg endpoint will be created and destroyed following the opening and closing of the endpoint device, allowing rpmsg backends to open and close the physical channel, if supported by the wire protocol.

* nilfs2: move ioctl interface and disk layout to uapi separatelyRyusuke Konishi2016-08-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user space programs. This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h". The following minor changes are accompanied by this migration: - nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure. - inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

| * stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devicesAlexander Shishkin2015-10-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM. This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP stream. This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency. For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism. For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that can be connected to an stm device at run time.

* | lightnvm: Support for Open-Channel SSDsMatias Bjørling2015-10-291-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer (FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features of SSDs. LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection, and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata persistence are still handled by the device. The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and (multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store, object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be application-specific.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were previous attempts to "merge" the toshiba SMM module to the toshiba_acpi one, they were trying to imitate what the old toshiba module does, however, some models (TOS1900 devices) come with a "crippled" implementation and do not provide all the "features" a "genuine" Toshiba BIOS does. This patch adds a new device called toshiba_acpi, which aim is to enable userspace to access the SMM on Toshiba laptops via ACPI calls. Creating a new convenience _IOWR command to access the SCI functions by opening/closing the SCI internally to avoid buggy BIOS, while at the same time providing backwards compatibility. Older programs (and new) who wish to access the SMM on newer models can do it by pointing their path to /dev/toshiba_acpi (instead of /dev/toshiba) as the toshiba.h header was modified to reflect these changes as well as adds all the toshiba_acpi paths and command, however, it is strongly recommended to use the new IOCTL for any SCI command to avoid any buggy BIOS.

* USB: cdc-wdm: implement IOCTL_WDM_MAX_COMMANDBjørn Mork2013-03-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace applications need to know the maximum supported message size. The cdc-wdm driver translates between a character device stream and a message based protocol. Each message is transported as a usb control message with no further encapsulation or syncronization. Each read or write on the character device should translate to exactly one usb control message to ensure that message boundaries are kept intact. That means that the userspace application must know the maximum message size supported by the device and driver, making this size a vital part of the cdc-wdm character device API. CDC WDM and CDC MBIM functions export the maximum supported message size through CDC functional descriptors. The cdc-wdm and cdc_mbim drivers will parse these descriptors and use the value chosen by the device. The only current way for a userspace application to retrive the value is by duplicating the descriptor parsing. This is an unnecessary complex task, and application writers are likely to postpone it, using a fixed value and adding a "todo" item. QMI functions have no way to tell the host what message size they support. The qmi_wwan driver use a fixed value based on protocol recommendations and observed device behaviour. Userspace applications must know and hard code the same value. This scheme will break if we ever encounter a QMI device needing a device specific message size quirk. We are currently unable to support such a device because using a non default size would break the implicit userspace API. The message size is currently a hidden attribute of the cdc-wdm userspace API. Retrieving it is unnecessarily complex, increasing the possibility of drivers and applications using different limits. The resulting errors are hard to debug, and can only be replicated on identical hardware. Exporting the maximum message size from the driver simplifies the task for the userspace application, and creates a unified information source independent of device and function class. It also serves to document that the message size is part of the cdc-wdm userspace API. This proposed API extension has been presented for the authors of userspace applications and libraries using the current API: libmbim, libqmi, uqmi, oFono and ModemManager. The replies were: Aleksander Morgado: "We do really need max message size for MBIM; and as you say, it may be good to have the max message size info also for QMI, so the new ioctl seems a good addition. So +1 from my side, for what it's worth." Dan Williams: "Yeah, +1 here. I'd prefer the sysfs file, but the fact that that doesn't work for fd passing pretty much kills it." No negative replies are so far received.

* wanrouter: completely decouple obsolete code from kernel.Paul Gortmaker2013-02-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original suggestion to delete wanrouter started earlier with the mainline commit f0d1b3c2bcc5de8a17af5f2274f7fcde8292b5fc ("net/wanrouter: Deprecate and schedule for removal") in May 2012. More importantly, Dan Carpenter found[1] that the driver had a fundamental breakage introduced back in 2008, with commit 7be6065b39c3 ("netdevice wanrouter: Convert directly reference of netdev->priv"). So we know with certainty that the code hasn't been used by anyone willing to at least take the effort to send an e-mail report of breakage for at least 4 years. This commit does a decouple of the wanrouter subsystem, by going after the Makefile/Kconfig and similar files, so that these mainline files that we are keeping do not have the big wanrouter file/driver deletion commit tied into their history. Once this commit is in place, we then can remove the obsolete cyclomx drivers and similar that have a dependency on CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.
