* Input: usbtouchscreen - add support for ET&T TC4UM touchscreen controllerPetr Štetiar2010-06-282-11/+14
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for the ET&T TC4UM 4-wire USB touchscreen controller and tries to reuse the bits for TC5UH controller in kernel already. Data interface is same.

* Input: ads7846 - allow specifying irq trigger type in platform dataAnatolij Gustschin2010-06-282-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | On some platforms, for example with GPIO interrupts on mpc5121, it is not possible to configure falling edge interrupts. Specifying irq trigger type in platform data structure allows using ads7846 driver on such platforms. Signed-off-by: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

* Input: adp5588-keys - support GPI events for ADP5588 devicesXiaolong CHEN2010-06-242-7/+163
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A column or row configured as a GPI can be programmed to be part of the key event table and therefore also capable of generating a key event interrupt. A key event interrupt caused by a GPI follows the same process flow as a key event interrupt caused by a key press. GPIs configured as part of the key event table allow single key switches and other GPI interrupts to be monitored. As part of the event table, GPIs are represented by the decimal value 97 (0x61 or 1100001) through the decimal value 114 (0x72 or 1110010). See table below for GPI event number assignments for rows and columns.

* Input: evdev - never leave the client buffer empty after writeHenrik Rydberg2010-06-231-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the client buffer is very small and wraps around a lot, it may well be that a write increases the head such that head == tail. If this happens between the point where a poll is triggered and the actual data is being read, there will be no data to read. This is confusing to applications, which might end up closing the file. This patch solves the problem by making sure the client buffer is never empty after writing to it. Signed-off-by: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@euromail.se> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

| | | | | | | | | | | | Some devices, in particular MT devices, produce a lot of data. This may lead to overflowing of the event queues in evdev driver, which by default are fairly small. Let the drivers hint the average number of events per packet generated by the device, and use that information when computing the buffer size evdev should use for the device.

| * slub: move kmem_cache_node into it's own cachelineAlexander Duyck2010-05-242-28/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is meant to improve the performance of SLUB by moving the local kmem_cache_node lock into it's own cacheline separate from kmem_cache. This is accomplished by simply removing the local_node when NUMA is enabled. On my system with 2 nodes I saw around a 5% performance increase w/ hackbench times dropping from 6.2 seconds to 5.9 seconds on average. I suspect the performance gain would increase as the number of nodes increases, but I do not have the data to currently back that up.

In that case, the optimistic spinning code can get us into a situation where instead of going to sleep, A will spin waiting for B who is spinning waiting for A, and the only way out of that loop is the need_resched() test in mutex_spin_on_owner(). This patch fixes it by completely disabling spinning if we own the BKL. This adds one more detail to the extensive list of reasons why it's a bad idea for kernel code to be holding the BKL.

This is to make sure userspace is not getting anything it should not be when reading the pages, because the excess data was never initialized to zero before writing (for perfomance reasons). But the splice code has no business in doing this work, it should be done by the ring buffer. With the latest changes for recording lost events, the splice code gets it wrong anyway. Move the zeroing out of excess bytes into the ring buffer code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Since the 'commit' includes the padding at the end of a page a "real_end" variable was used to keep track of the end not including the padding. If events were lost, the reader can place the count of events in the padded area if there is enough room. The bug this patch fixes is that when we fill the page we do not reset the real_end variable, and if the writer had wrapped a few times, the real_end would be incorrect. This patch simply resets the real_end if the page was filled. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The userspace filesystem can now transfer data coming from a WRITE request to an arbitrary file descriptor (regular file, block device or socket) without having to go through a userspace buffer. The semantics of using splice() to read messages are: 1) with a single splice() call move the whole message from the fuse device to a temporary pipe 2) read the header from the pipe and determine the message type 3a) if message is a WRITE then splice data from pipe to destination 3b) else read rest of message to userspace buffer Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

This allows populating the fuse filesystem's cache without ever touching the page contents, i.e. zero copy read capability. The following steps are performed when trying to move a page into the page cache: - buf->ops->confirm() to make sure the new page is uptodate - buf->ops->steal() to try to remove the new page from it's previous place - remove_from_page_cache() on the old page - add_to_page_cache_locked() on the new page If any of the above steps fail (non fatally) then the code falls back to copying the page. In particular ->steal() will fail if there are external references (other than the page cache and the pipe buffer) to the page. Also since the remove_from_page_cache() + add_to_page_cache_locked() are non-atomic it is possible that the page cache is repopulated in between the two and add_to_page_cache_locked() will fail. This could be fixed by creating a new atomic replace_page_cache_page() function. fuse_readpages_end() needed to be reworked so it works even if page->mapping is NULL for some or all pages which can happen if the add_to_page_cache_locked() failed. A number of sanity checks were added to make sure the stolen pages don't have weird flags set, etc... These could be moved into generic splice/steal code.

The semantics of using splice() are: 1) buffer the message header and data in a temporary pipe 2) with a *single* splice() call move the message from the temporary pipe to the fuse device The READ reply message has the most interesting use for this, since now the data from an arbitrary file descriptor (which could be a regular file, a block device or a socket) can be tranferred into the fuse device without having to go through a userspace buffer. It will also allow zero copy moving of pages. One caveat is that the protocol on the fuse device requires the length of the whole message to be written into the header. But the length of the data transferred into the temporary pipe may not be known in advance. The current library implementation works around this by using vmplice to write the header and modifying the header after splicing the data into the pipe (error handling omitted): struct fuse_out_header out; iov.iov_base = &out; iov.iov_len = sizeof(struct fuse_out_header); vmsplice(pip[1], &iov, 1, 0); len = splice(input_fd, input_offset, pip[1], NULL, len, 0); /* retrospectively modify the header: */ out.len = len + sizeof(struct fuse_out_header); splice(pip[0], NULL, fuse_chan_fd(req->ch), NULL, out.len, flags); This works since vmsplice only saves a pointer to the data, it does not copy the data itself. Since pipes are currently limited to 16 pages and messages need to be spliced atomically, the length of the data is limited to 15 pages (or 60kB for 4k pages).

| * | | | fuse: get page reference for readpagesMiklos Szeredi2010-05-251-0/+2

Not acquiring a reference didn't seem to cause any trouble since the page is locked and will not be kicked out of the page cache during the read. However the following patches will want to remove the page from the cache so a separate ref is needed. Making the reference in req->pages explicit also makes the code easier to understand.
