dmaengine: Driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller
This adds a driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller (aka
DMACA on AVR32 systems.) This DMA controller can be found integrated
on the AT32AP7000 chip and is primarily meant for peripheral DMA
transfer, but can also be used for memory-to-memory transfers.
This patch is based on a driver from David Brownell which was based on
an older version of the DMA Engine framework. It also implements the
proposed extensions to the DMA Engine API for slave DMA operations.
The dmatest client shows no problems, but there may still be room for
improvement performance-wise. DMA slave transfer performance is
definitely "good enough"; reading 100 MiB from an SD card running at ~20
MHz yields ~7.2 MiB/s average transfer rate.
Full documentation for this controller can be found in the Synopsys
DW AHB DMAC Databook:
The controller has lots of implementation options, so it's usually a
good idea to check the data sheet of the chip it's intergrated on as
well. The AT32AP7000 data sheet can be found here:
Changes since v4:
* Use client_count instead of dma_chan_is_in_use()
* Add missing include
* Unmap buffers unless client told us not to
Changes since v3:
* Update to latest DMA engine and DMA slave APIs
* Embed the hw descriptor into the sw descriptor
* Clean up and update MODULE_DESCRIPTION, copyright date, etc.
Changes since v2:
* Dequeue all pending transfers in terminate_all()
* Rename dw_dmac.h -> dw_dmac_regs.h
* Define and use controller-specific dma_slave data
* Fix up a few outdated comments
* Define hardware registers as structs (doesn't generate better
code, unfortunately, but it looks nicer.)
* Get number of channels from platform_data instead of hardcoding it
based on CONFIG_WHATEVER_CPU.
* Give slave clients exclusive access to the channel

This patch adds the necessary interfaces to the DMA Engine framework
to use functionality found on most embedded DMA controllers: DMA from
and to I/O registers with hardware handshaking.
In this context, hardware hanshaking means that the peripheral that
owns the I/O registers in question is able to tell the DMA controller
when more data is available for reading, or when there is room for
more data to be written. This usually happens internally on the chip,
but these signals may also be exported outside the chip for things
like IDE DMA, etc.
A new struct dma_slave is introduced. This contains information that
the DMA engine driver needs to set up slave transfers to and from a
slave device. Most engines supporting DMA slave transfers will want to
extend this structure with controller-specific parameters. This
additional information is usually passed from the platform/board code
through the client driver.
A "slave" pointer is added to the dma_client struct. This must point
to a valid dma_slave structure iff the DMA_SLAVE capability is
requested. The DMA engine driver may use this information in its
device_alloc_chan_resources hook to configure the DMA controller for
slave transfers from and to the given slave device.
A new operation for preparing slave DMA transfers is added to struct
dma_device. This takes a scatterlist and returns a single descriptor
representing the whole transfer.
Another new operation for terminating all pending transfers is added as
well. The latter is needed because there may be errors outside the scope
of the DMA Engine framework that may require DMA operations to be
terminated prematurely.
DMA Engine drivers may extend the dma_device, dma_chan and/or
dma_slave_descriptor structures to allow controller-specific
operations. The client driver can detect such extensions by looking at
the DMA Engine's struct device, or it can request a specific DMA
Engine device by setting the dma_dev field in struct dma_slave.
dmaslave interface changes since v4:
* Fix checkpatch errors
* Fix changelog (there are no slave descriptors anymore)
dmaslave interface changes since v3:
* Use dma_data_direction instead of a new enum
* Submit slave transfers as scatterlists
* Remove the DMA slave descriptor struct
dmaslave interface changes since v2:
* Add a dma_dev field to struct dma_slave. If set, the client can
only be bound to the DMA controller that corresponds to this
device. This allows controller-specific extensions of the
dma_slave structure; if the device matches, the controller may
safely assume its extensions are present.
* Move reg_width into struct dma_slave as there are currently no
users that need to be able to set the width on a per-transfer
basis.
dmaslave interface changes since v1:
* Drop the set_direction and set_width descriptor hooks. Pass the
direction and width to the prep function instead.
* Declare a dma_slave struct with fixed information about a slave,
i.e. register addresses, handshake interfaces and such.
* Add pointer to a dma_slave struct to dma_client. Can be NULL if
the DMA_SLAVE capability isn't requested.
* Drop the set_slave device hook since the alloc_chan_resources hook
now has enough information to set up the channel for slave
transfers.

The command completed bit in Slot Status register applies only to
commands issued to control the attention indicator, power indicator,
power controller, or electromechanical interlock. However, writes to
other parts of the Slot Control register would end up writing to the

considered as a command. However, if the controller doesn't support
any of attention indicator, power indicator, power controller and
electromechanical interlock, command completed bit would not set in

The cause of the problem is pciehp driver didn't take this situation
into account. This patch changes pciehp to take it into account. This
patch also add the check for "No Command Completed Support" bit in
Slot Capability register. If it is set, we should not wait for command
completed bit set as well.
This problem seems to be revealed by the commit c27fb883dffe11aa4cb35ecea1fa1832ba45d4da that fixed the bug that
pciehp did not wait for command completed properly (pciehp just
ignored the command completion event).
The situation under which it occurs is hw and timing related: it appears

hotplug cards, and another interrupt in the same (shared) IRQ line

This is a partial fix, adding handshaking between the lower level (SPI
messaging) and the file operations using the spi_dev. (It also fixes an

cgroups: remove node_ prefix_from ns subsystem
This is a slight change in the namespace cgroup subsystem api.
The change is that previously when cgroup_clone() was called (currently
only from the unshare path in ns_proxy cgroup, you'd get a new group named
"node_$pid" whereas now you'll get a group named after just your pid.)
The only users who would notice it are those who are using the ns_proxy
cgroup subsystem to auto-create cgroups when namespaces are unshared -
something of an experimental feature, which I think really needs more
complete container/namespace support in order to be useful. I suspect the
only users are Cedric and Serge, or maybe a few others on
containers@lists.linux-foundation.org. And in fact it would only be
noticed by the users who make the assumption about how the name is
generated, rather than getting it from the /proc/<pid>/cgroups file for
the process in question.
Whether the change is actually needed or not I'm fairly agnostic on, but I
guess it is more elegant to just use the pid as the new group name rather
than adding a fairly arbitrary "node_" prefix on the front.

When performing a node local allocation we call get_page_from_freelist()

a preferred_zone. Where there are no applicable zones this will be NULL.

brd: don't show ramdisks in /proc/partitions
In 2.6.25, ramdisk devices show up in /proc/partitions, which is a
behaviour change from the old rd.c. Add GENHD_FL_SUPPRESS_PARTITION_INFO,
which was present in rd.c.
All kernels prior to 2.6.25 weren't displaying ramdisks in
/proc/partitions. Since there are many userspace tools using information
from /proc/partitions some of them may now behave incorrectly (I didn't
tested any though). For example before 2.6.25 /proc/partitions was empty
if no block devices like hard disks and such were detected by kernel. Now
all 16 ramdisks are always visible there. Some software may rely on such
information (I mean, on empty /proc/partitions).
There was quite similar situation back in 2004, and ramdisks were excluded
back from displaying. Thats why I called this a regression (maybe a bit
unfortunate). See this patch for info:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.3-rc2/2.6.3-rc2-mm1/broken-out/nbd-proc-partitions-fix.patch
I also think that someone somewhere (long time ago) excluded ramdisks from
/proc/partitions for good reasons. It is possible that now such new
"feature" is harmless, but I think there are more chances that someone
will say "hey, /proc/partitions has changed, now my software doesn't work"
then "hey where did my new 2.6.25 feature go". nbd devices are also
excluded, maybe for very same (unknown to me) reasons.
