The i.MX frame-buffer read operation should be faster for all configurations
then drawing each individual character again in response to scroll events.
The nonstandard fields allows to configure frame-buffer special options flags
for different display configurations by board specific initialization code.
One of such specific options is reversed order of pixels in each individual
byte. i.MX frame-buffer seems to be designed for big-endian use first. The
byte order is correctly configured for little-endian ordering, but if 1, 2 or
4 bits per pixel are used, pixels ordering is incompatible to Linux generic
frame-buffer drawing functions.
The patch "Allow generic BitBLT functions to work with swapped pixel order in
bytes" introduces required functionality into FBDEV core. The pixels ordering
selection has to be enabled at compile time CONFIG_FB_CFB_REV_PIXELS_IN_BYTE
and for each display configuration which requires it by flag
FB_NONSTD_REV_PIX_IN_B in "nonstd" field of info structure.
This patch provides way for board specific code to select this option.

Various console drivers are able to resize the screen via the con_resize()
hook. This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and
VT_RESIZEX ioctl's. One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that
con_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the
resulting screen is not compatible with the hardware. However, this
particular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug
7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size
larger than 80x25.
To work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize(). This
parameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon. If this parameter is
non-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl
and vgacon will always return success. If this parameter is zero, vgacon will
return -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware. The
latter is the more correct behavior.
With this change, SVGATextMode should still work correctly while in-kernel and
stty resize calls can expect correct behavior from vgacon.

Allow generic frame-buffer code to correctly write texts and blit images for
1, 2 and 4 bit per pixel frame-buffer organizations when pixels in bytes are
organized to in opposite order than bytes in long type.
Overhead should be reasonable. If option is not selected, than compiler
should eliminate completely all overhead.
The feature is disabled at compile time if CONFIG_FB_CFB_REV_PIXELS_IN_BYTE is
not set.

This patch adds support for the other three palette formats possible with
the PXA LCD controller. This is required on boards where an LCD is connected
with all its 18 bits. With this patch, it's possible to use an 8-bit mode
with 18-bit palette entries. This used to be possible in 2.4 kernels but
disappeared in 2.6. With current kernels, you can only get wrong colours
out of an LCD connected this way.
Users can choose the palette format by doing something like this
in their board definition:
static struct pxafb_mach_info my_fb_info = {
[...]
.lccr3 = LCCR3_OutEnH | LCCR3_PixFlEdg | LCCR3_PDFOR_3,
.lccr4 = LCCR4_PAL_FOR_2,
[...]

This contains the following changes:
* Overlay surface alpha is configured separately from the overlay. This
prevents display glitches (configure and fill the overlay first, set
alpha to a visible value next)
* Added an ioctl for configuring transparency of the Overlay and graphics
planes. Blend mode, colorkey mode and global alpha mode are supported.
* Added an ioctl for setting the plane order. The overlay plance can be placed
over or
under the graphics plane.
* Added an ioctl for setting and reading chip registers, with mask.
* Updated copyright for 2007

uvesafb is an enhanced version of vesafb. It uses a userspace helper (v86d)
to execute calls to the x86 Video BIOS functions. The driver is not limited
to any specific arch and whether it works on a given arch or not depends on
that arch being supported by the userspace daemon. It has been tested on
x86_32 and x86_64.
A single BIOS call is represented by an instance of the uvesafb_ktask
structure. This structure contains a buffer, a completion struct and a
uvesafb_task substructure, containing the values of the x86 registers, a flags
field and a field indicating the length of the buffer. Whenever a BIOS call
is made in the driver, uvesafb_exec() builds a message using the uvesafb_task
substructure and the contents of the buffer. This message is then assigned a
random ack number and sent to the userspace daemon using the connector
interface.
The message's sequence number is used as an index for the uvfb_tasks array,
which provides a mapping from the messages coming from userspace to the
in-kernel uvesafb_ktask structs.
The userspace daemon performs the requested operation and sends a reply in the
form of a uvesafb_task struct and, optionally, a buffer. The seq and ack
numbers in the reply should be exactly the same as those in the request.
Each message from userspace is processed by uvesafb_cn_callback() and after
passing a few sanity checks leads to the completion of a BIOS call request.

Introduce architecture dependent kretprobe blacklists to prohibit users
from inserting return probes on the function in which kprobes can be
inserted but kretprobes can not.
This patch also removes "__kprobes" mark from "__switch_to" on x86_64 and
registers "__switch_to" to the blacklist on x86-64, because that mark is to
prohibit user from inserting only kretprobe.

Remove the cpuset hooks that defined sched domains depending on the setting
of the 'cpu_exclusive' flag.
The cpu_exclusive flag can only be set on a child if it is set on the
parent.
This made that flag painfully unsuitable for use as a flag defining a
partitioning of a system.
It was entirely unobvious to a cpuset user what partitioning of sched
domains they would be causing when they set that one cpu_exclusive bit on
one cpuset, because it depended on what CPUs were in the remainder of that
cpusets siblings and child cpusets, after subtracting out other
cpu_exclusive cpusets.
Furthermore, there was no way on production systems to query the
result.
Using the cpu_exclusive flag for this was simply wrong from the get go.
Fortunately, it was sufficiently borked that so far as I know, almost no
successful use has been made of this. One real time group did use it to
affectively isolate CPUs from any load balancing efforts. They are willing
to adapt to alternative mechanisms for this, such as someway to manipulate
the list of isolated CPUs on a running system. They can do without this
present cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative.
There is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users
accidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired
load balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the
cpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag.
Furthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was
doing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code.
Unless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they
will be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel's
behaviour.
Initial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment. My
(probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a
rough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for
defining sched domains is borked. There is no concensus on the
replacement. But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its
continued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers
load balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the
replacement scheduler domain mechanisms.

Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data
is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses. This
patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA
services with devices that offer DCA services.
In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag
bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU. However, different
CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods
for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a
hardware specific magic incantation. This interface is a way for DCA
clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing
to know the specifics.

Handle floating point state better in ptrace. The code now correctly
distinguishes between PTRACE_[GS]ETFPREGS and PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS. The FPX
requests get handed off to arch-specific code because that's not generic.
get_fpregs, set_fpregs, set_fpregs, and set_fpxregs needed real
implementations.
Something here exposed a missing include in asm/page.h, which needed
linux/types.h in order to get gfp_t, so that's fixed here.

Before the removal of tt mode, access to a register on the skas-mode side of a
pt_regs struct looked like pt_regs.regs.skas.regs.regs[FOO]. This was bad
enough, but it became pt_regs.regs.regs.regs[FOO] with the removal of the
union from the middle. To get rid of the run of three "regs", the last field
is renamed to "gp".
