This patch introduces support for dynamic reconfiguration (adding, removing
and/or modifying parameters of netconsole targets at runtime) using a
userspace interface exported via configfs. Documentation is also updated
accordingly.
Issues and brief design overview:
(1) Kernel-initiated creation / destruction of kernel objects is not
possible with configfs -- the lifetimes of the "config items" is managed
exclusively from userspace. But netconsole must support boot/module
params too, and these are parsed in kernel and hence netpolls must be
setup from the kernel. Joel Becker suggested to separately manage the
lifetimes of the two kinds of netconsole_target objects -- those created
via configfs mkdir(2) from userspace and those specified from the
boot/module option string. This adds complexity and some redundancy here
and also means that boot/module param-created targets are not exposed
through the configfs namespace (and hence cannot be updated / destroyed
dynamically). However, this saves us from locking / refcounting
complexities that would need to be introduced in configfs to support
kernel-initiated item creation / destroy there.
(2) In configfs, item creation takes place in the call chain of the
mkdir(2) syscall in the driver subsystem. If we used an ioctl(2) to
create / destroy objects from userspace, the special userspace program is
able to fill out the structure to be passed into the ioctl and hence
specify attributes such as local interface that are required at the time
we set up the netpoll. For configfs, this information is not available at
the time of mkdir(2). So, we keep all newly-created targets (via
configfs) disabled by default. The user is expected to set various
attributes appropriately (including the local network interface if
required) and then write(2) "1" to the "enabled" attribute. Thus,
netpoll_setup() is then called on the set parameters in the context of
_this_ write(2) on the "enabled" attribute itself. This design enables
the user to reconfigure existing netconsole targets at runtime to be
attached to newly-come-up interfaces that may not have existed when
netconsole was loaded or when the targets were actually created. All this
effectively enables us to get rid of custom ioctls.
(3) Ultra-paranoid configfs attribute show() and store() operations, with
sanity and input range checking, using only safe string primitives, and
compliant with the recommendations in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt.
(4) A new function netpoll_print_options() is created in the netpoll API,
that just prints out the configured parameters for a netpoll structure.
netpoll_parse_options() is modified to use that and it is also exported to
be used from netconsole.

This patch introduces support for multiple targets, independent of
CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC -- this is useful even in the default case and
(including the infrastructure introduced in previous patches) doesn't really
add too many bytes to module text. All the complexity (and size) comes with
the dynamic reconfigurability / userspace interface patch, and so it's
plausible users may want to keep this enabled but that disabled (say to avoid
a dependency on CONFIG_CONFIGFS_FS too).
Also update documentation to mention the use of ";" separator to specify
multiple logging targets in the boot/module option string.
Brief overview:
We maintain a target_list (and corresponding lock). Get rid of the static
"default_target" and introduce allocation and release functions for our
netconsole_target objects (but keeping sure to preserve previous behaviour
such as default values). During init_netconsole(), ";" is used as the
separator to identify multiple target specifications in the boot/module option
string. The target specifications are parsed and netpolls setup. During
exit, the target_list is torn down and all items released.

Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.
In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.
The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:
int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
to
int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.
The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.
Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

Add support for setting the P_Key index of sent MADs and getting the

the ABI structure struct ib_user_mad_hdr, so to avoid breaking
compatibility, we default to the old (unchanged) ABI and add a new
ioctl IB_USER_MAD_ENABLE_PKEY that allows applications that are aware
of the new ABI to opt into using it.
We plan on switching to the new ABI by default in a year or so, and
this patch adds a warning that is printed when an application uses the
old ABI, to push people towards converting to the new ABI.

The way the current CPM binding describes available multi-user (a.k.a.
dual-ported) RAM doesn't work well when there are multiple free regions,
and it doesn't work at all if the region doesn't begin at the start of
the muram area (as the hardware needs to be programmed with offsets into
this area). The latter situation can happen with SMC UARTs on CPM2, as its
parameter RAM is relocatable, u-boot puts it at zero, and the kernel doesn't
support moving it.
It is now described with a muram node, similar to QE. The current CPM
binding is sufficiently recent (i.e. never appeared in an official release)
that compatibility with existing device trees is not an issue.
The code supporting the new binding is shared between cpm1 and cpm2, rather
than remain separated. QE should be able to use this code as well, once
minor fixes are made to its device trees.

The localbus node is used to describe devices that are connected via a chip
select or similar mechanism. The advantages over placing the devices under
the root node are that it can be probed without probing other random things
under the root, and that the description of which chip select a given device
uses can be used to set up mappings if the firmware failed to do so in a
useful manner.
cuboot-pq2 is updated to match the binding; previously, it called itself
chipselect rather than localbus, and used phandle linkage between the
actual bus node and the control node (the current agreement is to simply use
the fully-qualified address of the control registers, and ignore the overlap
with the IMMR node).

This introduces a new device binding for the CPM and other devices on
these boards. Some of the changes include:
1. Proper namespace scoping for Freescale compatibles and properties.
2. Use compatible rather than things like device_type and model
to determine which particular variant of a device is present.
3. Give the drivers the relevant CPM command word directly, rather than
requiring it to have a lookup table based on device-id, SCC v. SMC, and
CPM version.
4. Specify the CPCR and the usable DPRAM region in the CPM's reg property.
Boards that do not require the legacy bindings should select
CONFIG_PPC_CPM_NEW_BINDING to enable the of_platform CPM devices. Once
all existing boards are converted and tested, the config option can
become default y to prevent new boards from using the old model. Once
arch/ppc is gone, the config option can be removed altogether.

Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.
CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.
Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.
This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:
Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.
It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.
The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.
The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

Some hardware will malfunction at a temperature below
the BIOS provided critical shutdown threshold.
This hook allows moving the critical trip points down
to a temperature which provokes a graceful shutdown
before the hardware malfunction.

thermal.act=-1 disables all active trip points
in all ACPI thermal zones.
thermal.act=C, where C > 0, overrides all lowest temperature
active trip points in all thermal zones to C degrees Celsius.
Raising this trip-point may allow you to keep your system silent
up to a higher temperature. However, it will not allow you to
raise the lowest temperature trip point above the next higher
trip point (if there is one). Lowering this trip point may
kick in the fan sooner.
Note that overriding this trip-point will disable any BIOS attempts
to implement hysteresis around the lowest temperature trip point.
This may result in the fan starting and stopping frequently
if temperature frequently crosses C.
WARNING: raising trip points above the manufacturer's defaults
may cause the system to run at higher temperature and shorten
its life.

thermal.nocrt=1 disables actions on _CRT and _HOT
ACPI thermal zone trip-points. They will be marked
as <disabled> in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/trip_points.
There are two cases where this option is used:
1. Debugging a hot system crossing valid trip point.
If your system fan is spinning at full speed,
be sure that the vent is not clogged with dust.
Many laptops have very fine thermal fins that are easily blocked.
Check that the processor fan-sink is properly seated,
has the proper thermal grease, and is really spinning.
Check for fan related options in BIOS SETUP.
Sometimes there is a performance vs quiet option.
Defaults are generally the most conservative.
If your fan is not spinning, yet /proc/acpi/fan/
has files in it, please file a Linux/ACPI bug.
WARNING: you risk shortening the lifetime of your
hardware if you use this parameter on a hot system.
Note that this refers to all system components,
including the disk drive.
2. Working around a cool system crossing critical
trip point due to erroneous temperature reading.
Try again with CONFIG_HWMON=n
There is known potential for conflict between the
the hwmon sub-system and the ACPI BIOS.
If this fixes it, notify lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org
and linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org
Otherwise, file a Linux/ACPI bug, or notify
just linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org.

"thermal.psv=-1" disables passive trip points
for all ACPI thermal zones.
"thermal.psv=C", where 'C' is degrees Celsius,
overrides all existing passive trip points
for all ACPI thermal zones.
thermal.psv is checked at module load time,
and in response to trip-point change events.
Note that if the system does not deliver thermal zone
temperature change events near the new trip-point,
then it will not be noticed. To force your custom
trip point to be noticed, you may need to enable polling:
eg. thermal.tzp=3000 invokes polling every 5 minutes.
Note that once passive thermal throttling is invoked,
it has its own internal Thermal Sampling Period (_TSP),
that is unrelated to _TZP.
WARNING: disabling or raising a thermal trip point
may result in increased running temperature and
shorter hardware lifetime on some systems.
Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
Thermal Zone Polling frequency (_TZP) is an optional ACPI object
recommending the rate that the OS should poll the associated thermal zone.
If _TZP is 0, no polling should be used.
If _TZP is non-zero, then the platform recommends that
the OS poll the thermal zone at the specified rate.
The minimum period is 30 seconds.
The maximum period is 5 minutes.
(note _TZP and thermal.tzp units are in deci-seconds,
so _TZP = 300 corresponds to 30 seconds)
If _TZP is not present, ACPI 3.0b recommends that the
thermal zone be polled at an "OS provided default frequency".
However, common industry practice is:
1. The BIOS never specifies any _TZP
2. High volume OS's from this century never poll any thermal zones
Ie. The OS depends on the platform's ability to
provoke thermal events when necessary, and
the "OS provided default frequency" is "never":-)
There is a proposal that ACPI 4.0 be updated to reflect
common industry practice -- ie. no _TZP, no polling.
The Linux kernel already follows this practice --
thermal zones are not polled unless _TZP is present and non-zero.
But thermal zone polling is useful as a workaround for systems
which have ACPI thermal control, but have an issue preventing
thermal events. Indeed, some Linux distributions still
set a non-zero thermal polling frequency for this reason.
But rather than ask the user to write a polling frequency
into all the /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/polling_frequency
files, here we simply document and expose the already
existing module parameter to do the same at system level,
to simplify debugging those broken platforms.
Note that thermal.tzp is a module-load time parameter only.

"thermal.off=1" disables all ACPI thermal support at boot time.
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=n can do this at build time.
"# rmmod thermal" can do this at run time,
as long as thermal is built as a module.
WARNING: On some systems, disabling ACPI thermal support
will cause the system to run hotter and reduce the
lifetime of the hardware.

Revert 7e92b4fc34. It broke Sébastien Dugué's
machine and Jeff said (persuasively)
This seems like it will break decades-long-working stuff, in favor of
breaking new ground in our favorite area, "trusting the BIOS."
It's just not worth it for serial ports, IMO. Serial ports are something
that just shouldn't break at this late stage in the game. My new Intel
platform boxes don't even have serial ports, so I question the value of
messing with serial port probing even more... because... just wait a year,
and your box won't have a serial port either! :)
I certainly don't object to the use of platform devices (or isa_driver),
but the probe change seems questionable. That's sorta analagous to
rewriting the floppy driver probe routine. Sure you could do it... but why
risk all that damage and go through debugging all over again?
It seems clear from this report that we cannot, should not, trust BIOS for
something (a) so simple and (b) that has been working for over a decade.
Much discussion ensued and we've decided to have another go at all of this.

with whatever the ACPI BIOS has been doing in modern ThinkPads. In older
ThinkPads, it actually carried out real actions. Document this.

The change in the size of the hotkey mask, the hability to report the keys
that use the higher bits, and the addition of the hotkey_radio_sw attribute
are important enough features to warrant increasing the minor field of the
sysfs interface version.
Also, document a bit better how and when the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface
version will be updated.

Some ThinkPad models, notably the T60 and X60, have a slider switch to
enable and disable the radios. The switch has the capability of
force-disabling the radios in hardware on most models, and it is supposed
to affect all radios (WLAN, WWAN, BlueTooth).
Export the switch state as a sysfs attribute, on ThinkPads where it is
available.
Thanks to Henning Schild for asking for this feature, and for tracking down
the EC register that holds the radio switch state.

The firmware knows how many hot keys it supports, so export this
information in a sysfs attribute.
And the driver knows which keys are always handled by the firmware in all
known ThinkPad models too, so export this information as well in a sysfs
attribute. Unless you know which events need to be handled in a passive
way, do *not* enable hotkeys that are always handled by the firmware.

Revise ACPI HKEY functionality to better interface with the firmware, and
enable up to 32 regular hotkeys, instead of just 16 of them. Ouch.
This takes care of most keys one used to have to do CMOS NVRAM polling on,
and should drop the need for tpb, thinkpad-keys, and other such 5Hz NVRAM
polling power vampires on most modern ThinkPads ;-)
And, just to add insult to injury, this was sort of working since forever
through the procfs interface, but nobody noticed or tried an echo
0xffffffff > /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey and told me it would generate weird
events. ARGH!
Thanks to Richard Hughes for kicking off the work that ended up with this
discovery, and to Matthew Garret for calling my attention to the fact that
newer ThinkPads were indeed generating ACPI GPEs when such hot keys were
pressed.

Background:
The MCE handler has several paths that it can take, depending on various
conditions of the MCE status and the value of the 'tolerant' knob. The
exact semantics are not well defined and the code is a bit twisty.
Description:
This patch makes the MCE handler's behavior more clear by documenting the
behavior for various 'tolerant' levels. It also fixes or enhances
several small things in the handler. Specifically:
* If RIPV is set it is not safe to restart, so set the 'no way out'
flag rather than the 'kill it' flag.
* Don't panic() on correctable MCEs.
* If the _OVER bit is set *and* the _UC bit is set (meaning possibly
dropped uncorrected errors), set the 'no way out' flag.
* Use EIPV for testing whether an app can be killed (SIGBUS) rather
than RIPV. According to docs, EIPV indicates that the error is
related to the IP, while RIPV simply means the IP is valid to
restart from.
* Don't clear the MCi_STATUS registers until after the panic() path.
This leaves the status bits set after the panic() so clever BIOSes
can find them (and dumb BIOSes can do nothing).
This patch also calls nonseekable_open() in mce_open (as suggested by akpm).
Result:
Tolerant levels behave almost identically to how they always have, but
not it's well defined. There's a slightly higher chance of panic()ing
when multiple errors happen (a good thing, IMHO). If you take an MBE and
panic(), the error status bits are not cleared.
Alternatives:
None.
Testing:
I used software to inject correctable and uncorrectable errors. With
tolerant = 3, the system usually survives. With tolerant = 2, the system
usually panic()s (PCC) but not always. With tolerant = 1, the system
always panic()s. When the system panic()s, the BIOS is able to detect
that the cause of death was an MC4. I was not able to reproduce the
case of a non-PCC error in userspace, with EIPV, with (tolerant < 3).
That will be rare at best.

This implements new vDSO for x86-64. The concept is similar
to the existing vDSOs on i386 and PPC. x86-64 has had static
vsyscalls before, but these are not flexible enough anymore.
A vDSO is a ELF shared library supplied by the kernel that is mapped into
user address space. The vDSO mapping is randomized for each process
for security reasons.
Doing this was needed for clock_gettime, because clock_gettime
always needs a syscall fallback and having one at a fixed
address would have made buffer overflow exploits too easy to write.
The vdso can be disabled with vdso=0
It currently includes a new gettimeofday implemention and optimized
clock_gettime(). The gettimeofday implementation is slightly faster
than the one in the old vsyscall. clock_gettime is significantly faster
than the syscall for CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_REALTIME.
The new calls are generally faster than the old vsyscall.
Advantages over the old x86-64 vsyscalls:
- Extensible
- Randomized
- Cleaner
- Easier to virtualize (the old static address range previously causes
overhead e.g. for Xen because it has to create special page tables for it)
Weak points:
- glibc support still to be written
The VM interface is partly based on Ingo Molnar's i386 version.

We have the following naming convention documented in
Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface for fault files:
in[0-*]_input_fault
fan[1-*]_input_fault
temp[1-*]_input_fault
Some drivers follow this convention (lm63, lm83, lm90, smsc47m192).
However some drivers omit the "input" part and create files named
fan1_fault (pc87427) or temp1_fault (dme1737). And the new "generic"
libsensors follows this second (non-standard) convention, so it fails
to report fault conditions for drivers which follow the standard.
We want a single naming scheme, and everyone seems to prefer the
shorter variant, so let's go for it.
