This patch adds the helper netpoll_tx_running for use within
ndo_start_xmit. It returns non-zero if ndo_start_xmit is being
invoked by netpoll, and zero otherwise.
This is currently implemented by simply looking at the hardirq
count. This is because for all non-netpoll uses of ndo_start_xmit,
IRQs must be enabled while netpoll always disables IRQs before
calling ndo_start_xmit.

As it stands, netpoll_setup and netpoll_cleanup have no locking
protection whatsoever. So chaos ensures if two entities try to
perform them on the same device.
This patch adds RTNL to the equation. The code has been rearranged so
that bits that do not need RTNL protection are now moved to the top of
netpoll_setup.

The use of RCU in netpoll is incorrect in a number of places:
1) The initial setting is lacking a write barrier.
2) The synchronize_rcu is in the wrong place.
3) Read barriers are missing.
4) Some places are even missing rcu_read_lock.
5) npinfo is zeroed after freeing.
This patch fixes those issues. As most users are in BH context,
this also converts the RCU usage to the BH variant.

This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to
identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time.
Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new
label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If
more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted
whenever any of the rules get a hit.
One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the
timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under
the xt_idletimer class:
/sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label>
When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the
userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

On DA830/OMAP-L137 and DA850/OMAP-L138 SoCs, the McASP peripheral
has FIFO support. This FIFO provides additional data buffering. It
also provides tolerance to variation in host/DMA controller response
times. More details of the FIFO operation can be found at
http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/lit/getliterature.tsp?literatureNumber=sprufm1&fileType=pdf
Existing sequence of steps for audio playback/capture are:
a. DMA configuration
b. McASP configuration (configures and enables FIFO)
c. Start DMA
d. Start McASP (enables FIFO)
During McASP configuration, while FIFO was being configured, FIFO
was being enabled in davinci_hw_common_param() function of
sound/soc/davinci/davinci-mcasp.c file. This generated a transmit
DMA event, which gets serviced when DMA is started.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/84611/ patch clears the DMA
events before starting DMA, which is the right thing to do. But
this resulted in a state where DMA was waiting for an event from
McASP (after step c above), but the event which was already there,
has got cleared (because of step b above).
The fix is not to enable the FIFO during McASP configuration as
FIFO was being enabled as part of McASP start.

In the commit below the version string handling was modified, adding
a '+' where no other version information was supplied:
commit 85a256d8e0
Author: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>
Date: Wed Jan 13 13:01:05 2010 -0800
From the commit the intent was as below:
- when CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO is disabled, a `+' is appended if the
repository has been revised beyond a tagged commit and LOCALVERSION=
was not passed to "make".
However if the user supplies an empty LOCALVERSION on the command line
the plus suffix is still added. This form is useful in the case where
the build environment knows that the version as specified is correct and
complete but does not correspond to a specific tag.
This patch changes the implementation to match the documentation
such that specifying LOCALVERSION= on the build line is sufficient
to suppress any suffix.

Certain revisions of this chipset appear to be broken. There is a shadow
GTT which mirrors the real GTT but contains pre-translated physical
addresses, for performance reasons. When a GTT update happens, the
translations are done once and the resulting physical addresses written
back to the shadow GTT.
Except sometimes, the physical address is actually written back to the
_real_ GTT, not the shadow GTT. Thus we start to see faults when that
physical address is fed through translation again.

I was observing the following error messages on my OMAP1 based Amstrad Delta
board when first changing from text to graphics mode or vice versa after the
LCD display had been blanked:
omapfb omapfb: timeout waiting for FRAME DONE
with a followup error message while unblanking it back:
omapfb omapfb: resetting (status 0xffffffb2,reset count 1)
As a visible result, image pixels happened to be shifted by a few bits,
giving wrong colors.
Examining the code, I found that this problem occures when an OMAP1 internal
LCD controller is disabled from omap_lcdc_suspend() and then a subsequent
omap_lcdc_setup_plane() calls disable_controller() again. This potentially
error provoking behaviour is triggered by the lcdc.update_mode flag being kept
at OMAP_AUTO_UPDATE, regardless of the controller and panel being suspended.
This patch tries to correct the problem by replacing both omap_lcdc_suspend()
and omap_lcdc_resume() function bodies with single calls to
omap_lcdc_set_update_mode() with a respective OMAP_UPDATE_DISABLE or
OMAP_AUTO_UPDATE argument. As a result, exactly the same lower level
operations are performed, with addition of changing the lcdc.update_mode flag
to a value better suited for the controller state. This prevents any further
calls to disable_controller() from omap_lcdc_setup_plane() while the display
is suspended.
Created against linux-2.6.34-rc7.
Tested on Amstrad Delta.

When trying to flash a machine via the update_flash command, Anton received the
following error:
Restarting system.
FLASH: kernel bug...flash list header addr above 4GB
The code in question has a comment that the flash list should be in
the kernel data and therefore under 4GB:
/* NOTE: the "first" block list is a global var with no data
* blocks in the kernel data segment. We do this because
* we want to ensure this block_list addr is under 4GB.
*/
Unfortunately the Kconfig option is marked tristate which means the variable
may not be in the kernel data and could be above 4GB.
Instead of relying on the data segment being below 4GB, use the static
data buffer allocated by the kernel for use by rtas. Since we don't
use the header struct directly anymore, convert it to a simple pointer.

We are seeing boot fails on some System p machines when using the kdump
crashkernel= boot option. The default kdump base address is 32MB, so if we
reserve 256MB for kdump then we reserve all of the RMO except the first 32MB.
We really want kdump to reserve some memory in the RMO and most of it
elsewhere but that will require more significant changes. For now we can shift
the default base address to 64MB when CONFIG_PPC64 and CONFIG_RELOCATABLE are
set. This isn't quite correct since what we really care about is the kdump
kernel is relocatable, but we already make the assumption that base kernel
and kdump kernel have the same CONFIG_RELOCATABLE setting, eg:
#ifndef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
if (crashk_res.start != KDUMP_KERNELBASE)
printk("Crash kernel location must be 0x%x\n",
KDUMP_KERNELBASE);
...
RTAS is instantiated towards the top of our RMO, so if we were to go any
higher we risk not having enough RMO memory for the kdump kernel on boxes
with a 128MB RMO.

A new random value for the canary is stored in the task struct whenever
a new task is forked. This is meant to allow for different canary values
per task. On ARM, GCC expects the canary value to be found in a global
variable called __stack_chk_guard. So this variable has to be updated
with the value stored in the task struct whenever a task switch occurs.
Because the variable GCC expects is global, this cannot work on SMP
unfortunately. So, on SMP, the same initial canary value is kept
throughout, making this feature a bit less effective although it is still
useful.
One way to overcome this GCC limitation would be to locate the
__stack_chk_guard variable into a memory page of its own for each CPU,
and then use TLB locking to have each CPU see its own page at the same
virtual address for each of them.
