* spi_bfin: wait for tx to complete on full duplex pathsBryan Wu2008-02-061-15/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Full duplex SPI operation should not read a dummy byte at the first transfer.

* spi_bfin: wait for tx to complete on some cs_chg pathsBryan Wu2008-02-061-28/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | PBX 2 SPI devices need the nonstandard "cs change per word" mechanism. This patch is one of three updating this driver to make the last data bits get sent before advancing the transfer ... in this case, before the chipselect gets deactivated.

* spi: SuperH SPI using SCIMagnus Damm2008-02-063-0/+213
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for SPI over SCI pins. SCI is a very simple serial controller block that can be found on older SuperH processors. In theory it is possible to use the SCI hardware block in syncronous mode, but this version of the driver simply hooks up the bit banging code on the SCI pins.

* spi: s3c drivers shouldn't care about spi_board_infoDavid Brownell2008-02-064-36/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The two S3C SPI master drivers got merged without much review, so I just noticed that they're doing something that the SPI core code is responsible for, rather than any adapter driver: they try to register SPI devices. This removes that support from those drivers so they act normally. Interestingly, none of the current boards are affected. So it's a net code shrink with no loss of functionality.

* atmel_spi: fix dmachain oops with DEBUG enabledHaavard Skinnemoen2008-02-061-8/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In atmel_spi_next_xfer, xfer can be NULL because the next transfer may already have been submitted to the PDC (using DMA chaining). This can cause an oops, since the debug message assumed it was never null. The fix changes how those debug messages are issued, ensuring that one is issued each time a transfer is started instead of once per call. Also, properly indent the "can this transfer be chained" test so it's not hidden as if it were non-conditional code.

* atmel_spi: chain DMA transfersSilvester Erdeg2008-02-061-45/+101
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for chained transfers in the atmel_spi driver, letting the DMA controller switch to the next buffer pair without CPU intervention. This reduced I/O latencies by about 2% in one bulk I/O test. It should also help work around several interrelated errata affecting chipselect 0 on at91rm9200 chips. Almost all of the changes are in the reworked atmel_spi_next_xfer() function. That's now called with the driver in one of three states: 1. It isn't transferring anything (in which case the first transfer of the current message is going to be sent) 2. It has finished transfering a non-chainable transfer (in which case it will go to the next transfer in the message) 3. It has finished transfering a chained transfer (in which case the next transfer is already queued) After that it will queue the next transfer if it can be chained.

* atmel_spi throughput improvementHaavard Skinnemoen2008-02-061-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't insert (undesirable) delays between consecutive words (DLYBCT) or when activating chipselects (DLYBS). Removing the between-word delays improves the performance of bulk transfers (such as mtd_dataflash, m25p80, mmc_spi) significantly. In one test, the improvement was a factor of more than eight! (The large DLYBCT value came from the legacy at91 SPI driver, and it's not clear why it used such a huge value.)

* W1: w1_therm.c standardize units to millidegrees CDavid Fries2008-02-061-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Standardize the temperature units to millidegrees C for the two sensor conversion routines. Previously the routines were, w1_DS18B20_convert_temp degrees C w1_DS18S20_convert_temp millidegrees C Unfortunately this will break any program using the ds18b20 value as it will now be 1000 times bigger. Fortunately there can't be that many users out there, or some of these bugs will have been fixed by now, such as the negative C error (see previous patch) that makes me think the ds18b20 is the better choice to change because of the current bugs.

* system timer: fix crash in <100Hz system timerDavid Fries2008-02-062-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel has a divide by zero crash when trying to run the system timer less than 100Hz. The problem is x/(HZ/USER_HZ) and related. Now x*(USER_HZ/HZ) will be used if HZ<USER_HZ. I'm running the Linux kernel under qemu and went to run a slower system timer to take less CPU (and battery) on the host. I found that the kernel paniced under emulation because of a divide by zero in three places. Here is the patch. The base git was updated today 01-05-2008. I went for a 20Hz system time by adding config HZ_20 etc to kernel/Kconfig.hz. With this patch I verified the system timer by looking at /proc/interrupts.

* Fix IXANY and restart after signal (e.g. ctrl-C) in n_tty line disciplineJoe Peterson2008-02-061-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix two N_TTY line discipline issues related to resuming a stopped TTY (typically done with ctrl-S): 1) Fix handling of character that resumes a stopped TTY (with IXANY) With "stty ixany", the TTY line discipline would lose the first character after the stop, so typing, for example, "hi^Sthere" resulted in "hihere" (the 't' would cause the resume after ^S, but it would then be thrown away rather than processed as an input character). This was inconsistent with the behavior of other Unix systems. 2) Fix interrupt signal (e.g. ctrl-C) behavior in stopped TTYs With "stty -ixany" (often the default), interrupt signals were ignored in a stopped TTY until the TTY was resumed with the start char (typically ctrl-Q), which was inconsistent with the behavior of other Unix systems.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | groups_sort() can be quite long if user loads a large gid table. This is because GROUP_AT(group_info, some_integer) uses an integer divide. So having to do XXX thousand divides during one syscall can lead to very high latencies. (NGROUPS_MAX=65536) In the past (25 Mar 2006), an analog problem was found in groups_search() (commit d74beb9f33a5f16d2965f11b275e401f225c949d ) and at that time I changed some variables to unsigned int. I believe that a more generic fix is to make sure NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK is unsigned.

* tty: enable the echoing of ^C in the N_TTY disciplineJoe Peterson2008-02-061-1/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Turn on INTR/QUIT/SUSP echoing in the N_TTY line discipline (e.g. ctrl-C will appear as "^C" if stty echoctl is set and ctrl-C is set as INTR). Linux seems to be the only unix-like OS (recently I've verified this on Solaris, BSD, and Mac OS X) that does *not* behave this way, and I really miss this as a good visual confirmation of the interrupt of a program in the console or xterm. I remember this fondly from many Unixs I've used over the years as well. Bringing this to Linux also seems like a good way to make it yet more compliant with standard unix-like behavior.

* Add arch_ptrace_stopRoland McGrath2008-02-062-1/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support to allow asm/ptrace.h to define two new macros, arch_ptrace_stop_needed and arch_ptrace_stop. These control special machine-specific actions to be done before a ptrace stop. The new code compiles away to nothing when the new macros are not defined. This is the case on all machines to begin with. On ia64, these macros will be defined to solve the long-standing issue of ptrace vs register backing store.

* quota: improve inode list scanning in add_dquot_ref()Jan Kara2008-02-061-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We restarted scan of sb->s_inodes list whenever we had to drop inode_lock in add_dquot_ref(). This leads to overall quadratic running time and thus add_dquot_ref() can take several minutes when called on a life filesystem. We fix the problem by using the fact that inode cannot be removed from s_inodes list while we hold a reference to it and thus we can safely restart the scan if we don't drop the reference. Here we use the fact that inodes freshly added to s_inodes list are already guaranteed to have quotas properly initialized and the ordering of inodes on s_inodes list does not change so we cannot skip any inode. Thanks goes to Nick <gentuu@gmail.com> for analyzing the problem and testing the fix.

* kallsyms should prefer non weak symbolsPaulo Marques2008-02-061-3/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When resolving symbol names from addresses with aliased symbol names, kallsyms_lookup always returns the first symbol, even if it is a weak symbol. This patch changes this by sorting the symbols with the weak symbols last before feeding them to the kernel. This way the kernel runtime isn't changed at all, only the kallsyms build system is changed. Another side effect is that the symbols get sorted by address, too. So, even if future binutils version have some bug in "nm" that makes it fail to correctly sort symbols by address, the kernel won't be affected by this. Mathieu says: I created a module in LTTng that uses kallsyms to get the symbol corresponding to a specific system call address. Unfortunately, all the unimplemented syscalls were all referring to the (same) weak symbol identifying an unrelated system call rather that sys_ni (or whatever non-weak symbol would be expected). Kallsyms was dumbly returning the first symbol that matched. This patch makes sure kallsyms returns the non-weak symbol when there is one, which seems to be the expected result.
