Original patch from David Brownell. * [ARM] oprofile: add ARM11 core support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c265a762aa196de11f38f6f44cc817329f32a813 (commit)] Add basic support for the ARM11 profiling hardware. This is shared between the ARM11 UP and ARM11 SMP oprofile support code. * [ARM] 4137/1: Add kexec support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c587e4a6a4d808fd2a1c4e7fb2d5a3a31e300d23 (commit)] Add kexec support to ARM. Improvements like commandline handling could be made but this patch gives basic functional support. It uses the next available syscall number, 347. Once the syscall number is known, userspace support will be finalised/submitted to kexec-tools, various patches already exist. Originally based on a patch by Maxim Syrchin but updated and forward ported by various people. * [ARM] 4214/2: S3C2410: Add Armzone QT2410 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c6184e271db4948d4f6e07f271abeb8697a80eba (commit)] Add support for the Armzone QT2410 system, with basic peripheral support for TFT display, SPI and LEDs. * [ARM] 4143/1: AT91: Prepare for AT91SAM9263 support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d0760b3bc8ff9b34e3e2e166e2102548a24751b4 (commit)] The Atmel AT91SAM9263 processor includes many more integrated peripherals than Atmel's previous ARM9-based AT91 processors, so this has necessitated a few changes to the core AT91 support. These changes are: * The system peripheral I/O region we remap has increased from 0xFFFA0000..0xFFFFFFFF to 0xFFF78000..0xFFFFFFFF. * The increased I/O region forces changes to entry-macro.S and debug-macro.S due to ARM's limited immediate offset addressing modes. * Maximum number of GPIO banks increases to 5. * 2 MMC controllers so the board-setup code needs to specify which controller it wishes to use when calling at91_add_device_mmc(). Original patch from Nicolas Ferre. * [ARM] 4047/1: Add initial board support for Contec Hypercontrol Micro9 boards. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d941caa2537a01653704a8c1148d330a3b2755f1 (commit)] Contec Micro9 (H/M/L) boards based on Cirrus Logic ep93xx (ep9315/ep9307/ep9302). * [ARM] 4203/1: S3C2443: use S3C2412 nand driver [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d9c0ebbda522b64607cd2b0064b9bb040c53bcaf (commit)] Use the S3C2412 nand driver for the S3C2443 as it is register compatible. * [ARM] 4198/2: S3C2443: arch/arm/mach-s3c2443 and related support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e4d06e39530559513c7e335ef7ca4675f8146220 (commit)] Add arch/arm/mach-s3c2443 for support of the Samsung S3C2443 SoC This patch adds the core CPU support, clock framework, times and initial IRQ support, as well as adding the directory into the build tree. * [ARM] 4146/1: AT91: Support for AT91SAM9263-EK board. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e6d92e6397634ac7d2e80b16c52f0dfab9b673b4 (commit)] Add support for the Atmel AT91SAM9263-EK board. Original patch from Nicolas Ferre. * [ARM] 4192/1: AT91: Support for AT91SAM9XE processors. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f7eee89b2a4b4c233acde621005a814da0eb46d6 (commit)] Add support for the Atmel AT91SAM9XE range of processors. These are basically AT91SAM9260's with different amounts of internal SRAM and Flash. We make use of the existing AT91SAM9260 support, but just perform run-time detection of the size of the internal SRAM. Original patch from Nicolas Ferre. * [ARM] 4221/1: S3C2443: DMA support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f8271e57569d1a2e7061f1754a5bb797a13b302d (commit)] Add initialisation and mappings for S3C2443 DMA system * [ARM] oprofile: add ARM11 SMP support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=10c03f69680e9e2acd8a9409a230aef37295ac49 (commit)] Add the glue for ARM11 SMP oprofile support, which also supports the performance monitor in the coherency unit. |

=== ACPI === * ACPI: bay: new driver adding removable drive bay support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=01b57e73728880b787c85e27ad06c249412813b1 (commit)] * ACPI: keep track of timer broadcasting [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=169a0abbe32813af4904cc1605c0f7ea0534f77b (commit)] This is a preperatory patch for highres/dyntick: - replace the big #ifdef ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3 hackery by functions - remove the double switch in the power verify function (in the worst case we switched ipi to apic and 20usec later apic to ipi) - keep track of the the state which stops local APIC timer * ACPI: asus_acpi: Add support for Asus Z81SP [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=1c0f0575fd02a3996f09cac2ef29c4cc5c2d279d (commit)] Adds support in asus_acpi for the Asus Z81SP laptop. This preserves all old functionality when improperly detected as well as enabling Bluetooth support. * ACPICA: Add support for DMAR table [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=2502fffb1958da66fa50a475081cb6827acdd9f3 (commit)] Implement support for ACPI DMAR table (DMA Remapping Table) in header files and disassembler. * ACPI: Adds backlight sysfs support for acpi video driver. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=2f3d000a133f68250635f14f6caf24d32d358090 (commit)] Adds backlight sysfs support for acpi video driver. * ACPI: fix missing include for UP [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3434933b17fa64adddf83059603c61296f6e1ee2 (commit)] apic.h does not get included on UP compiles. That way the APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3 is not there and UP boxen have no support for timer broadcasting. This was never noticed, because the lapic timer is only used for profiling on UP. * ACPICA: Removed all 16-bit support. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=59fa85057e12ff135df54266722b2064c418fc05 (commit)] Support for 16-bit ACPICA has been completely removed since it is no longer necessary and it clutters the code. All 16-bit macros, types, and conditional compiles have been removed, cleaning up and simplifying the code across the entire subsystem. DOS support is no longer needed since the Linux firmware kit is now available. * ACPI: remove motherboard driver (redundant with PNP system driver) [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=5eca338fb510af78eee5372ff6a3525768ab913f (commit)] The PNP system board driver (drivers/pnp/system.c) contains all the same functionality, so we don't need the ACPI version. Previously, a motherboard device would be claimed by *both* the ACPI and PNP drivers, resulting in stuff like this in /proc/ioports: 1200-121f : motherboard <-- from drivers/acpi/motherboard.c 1200-121f : pnp 00:0d <-- from drivers/pnp/system.c Make sure to enable CONFIG_PNP (and CONFIG_PNPACPI) to include the PNP system board driver. * ACPI: hotkey: remove driver, per feature-removal-schedule.txt [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=5ee6edbcde4d3b14e4e03d4b331df1099a34aa8d (commit)] * asus-laptop: add base driver [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=85091b718969be7b8e6f795af7e264b8afcd7a6d (commit)] Adds the new driver and make ASUS_LAPTOP and ACPI_ASUS incompatible. It may be strange to use ASUS_CREATE_DEVICE_ATTR and ASUS_SET_DEVICE_ATTR now, but these macro will be very usefull in next patchs. ASUS_HANDLE and ASUS_HANDLE_INIT comes from IBM_HANDLE and IBM_HANDLE_INIT, with some modification, and will also be used in next patchs. * sony-laptop: create from sony_acpi [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=91fbc1d311c1b8b71203b96f1a0629da7360eb4c (commit)] Move drivers/acpi/sony_acpi.c to drivers/misc/sony-laptop.c with all the necessary configuration. The SONY_LAPTOP config option substitutes the old ACPI_SONY and is 'default n' now. * ACPICA: minimal patch to integrate new tables into Linux [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=ad71860a17ba33eb0e673e9e2cf5ba0d8e3e3fdd (commit)] * ACPICA: Implement simplified Table Manager [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f3d2e7865c816258c699ff965768e46b50d536d3 (commit)] The Table Manager component has been completely redesigned and reimplemented. The new design is much simpler, and reduces the overall code and data size of the kernel-resident ACPICA by approximately 5%. Also, it is now possible to obtain the ACPI tables very early during kernel initialization, even before dynamic memory management is initialized. * ACPI: convert to sysfs framework [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f883d9db008deb20d4969c26475100cec2b7f6f8 (commit)] Setup new sysfs framework 1. Remove /sys/firmware/acpi 2. Add ACPI device in device tree. File "eject" for every device that has _EJ0 method is moved from /sys/firmware to /sys/devices. Operation on this file is exactly the same as before. i.e. echo 1 to "eject" will cause hot removal of this device. Corresponding changes should be made in userspace for hot removal. |
Short overview (for news sites, etc)
Important things (AKA: ''the cool stuff'')
Dynamic kernel command-line
Current implementation stores a static command-line buffer allocated to COMMAND_LINE_SIZE size. Most architectures stores two copies of this buffer, one for future reference and one for parameter parsing. Current kernel command-line size for most architecture is much too small for module parameters, video settings, initramfs paramters and much more. The problem is that setting COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to a grater value, allocates static buffers. In order to allow a greater command-line size, these buffers should be dynamically allocated or marked as init disposable buffers, so unused memory can be released. This patch renames the static saved_command_line variable into boot_command_line adding initdata attribute, so that it can be disposed after initialization. This rename is required so applications that use saved_command_line will not be affected by this change. It reintroduces saved_command_line as dynamically allocated buffer to match the data in boot_command_line. It also mark secondary command-line buffer as initdata, and copies it to dynamically allocated static_command_line buffer components may hold reference to it after initialization. * Dynamic kernel command-line: m68k [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=187959f31e92cde16b274f0b61dfaca3a8b14089 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: um [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=19bf7e7a414711dec0058556feda778105798f99 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: common [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=30d7e0d466b3ac0b5ef77e4062bf9385f0d72270 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: m32r [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3561794d80843588ed8b47fffb20e2dcd9c40ff3 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: sparc64 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=383464c0fb067f5beb96e28ff376d2280808dd54 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: alpha [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3c253ca0f0930b767a5d6ac0c1b3c6f5619e28f9 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: sh64 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3e42ff6c65cf40caa1f6ca51a4c3d552803e0957 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: mips [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=43cd34645d3bf35cbaa68f28b85d12d0b9e08ab9 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: i386 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=4e498b66104af914ef04d6e7fbbbc13a4f7c936e (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: sh [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=53c82622c2db808c015953336faecefc0ebf29bc (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: h8300 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=5ff625904cd4e41d70bc01e6683cbb58f312f709 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: arm26 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=64d5a70f956071f8434f403d44835a4895abb78e (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: parisc [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=668f9931c812224ab2a6d57cdf2f0ec3865b68d2 * Dynamic kernel command-line: v850 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=712f77b5659208b43c925e1b28c4f44891c4d94f (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: fixups [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=7a3a06d0e158fc82a6bf13e18439285c7791d2b8 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: cris [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=87e1f9c6dcb4829fd8a68a3af87098cee8ef955b (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: frv [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=9c00f7613249b3b42782a226308353a4033c11c3 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: ia64 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=a8d91b8477aa433ee0131b031d782411976e1726 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: x86_64 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=adf48856db47f4f0f661f2f4b7004890408135cf (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: powerpc [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=b8757b21f7628c57cb20e55be324fdef283a56e9 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: avr32 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bf4352c0fc82e6dadfa7eea506c19dea0106baac (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: ppc [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bf71cecbe4282fbb8ec035a7199fa4aca64db54c (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: arm [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=cd81899a7d9e77ffd5280b10d0413fb241b18388 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: xtensa [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d3e9cceafd9c886561f602bcdcb03efd96e187ab (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: s390 [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e06b1a3513bdd897e3c37c98ed7b16fa237dcb63 (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: m68knommu [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f2a09e19cae45b7dfa4b72d70182b5bc9afa2ddb (commit)] * Dynamic kernel command-line: sparc [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=08e7ca11eed86acde42ee97b9392faa10f9c70d1 (commit)]

This adds a special MSR based hypercall API to KVM. This is to be used by paravirtual kernels and virtual drivers.
KVM: Add a global list of all virtual machines [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=133de9021d2988f3fbdad84c2d26484c7a757526 (commit)]
This will allow us to iterate over all vcpus and see which cpus they are running on.
KVM: Wire up hypercall handlers to a central arch-independent location [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=270fd9b96f5fcb7df15d3ca6166545d4aa0f3ee9 (commit)]

Add the necessary callbacks to suspend and resume a host running kvm. This is just a repeat of the cpu hotplug/unplug work.
KVM: cpu hotplug support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=774c47f1d78e373a6bd2964f4e278d1ce26c21cb (commit)]
On hotplug, we execute the hardware extension enable sequence. On unplug, we decache any vcpus that last ran on the exiting cpu, and execute the hardware extension disable sequence.
KVM: VMX: add vcpu_clear() [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=8d0be2b3bf4a55606967d7d84e56c52521e94333 (commit)]
Like the inline code it replaces, this function decaches the vmcs from the cpu it last executed on. in addition: - vcpu_clear() works if the last cpu is also the cpu we're running on - it is faster on larger smps by virtue of using smp_call_function_single() Includes fix from Ingo Molnar.

Define the Timer/Counter Unit clocks on the AT91RM9200, AT91SAM9260 and AT91SAM9261 processors. Original patch from David Brownell. * [ARM] oprofile: add ARM11 core support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c265a762aa196de11f38f6f44cc817329f32a813 (commit)] Add basic support for the ARM11 profiling hardware. This is shared between the ARM11 UP and ARM11 SMP oprofile support code. * [ARM] 4137/1: Add kexec support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c587e4a6a4d808fd2a1c4e7fb2d5a3a31e300d23 (commit)] Add kexec support to ARM. Improvements like commandline handling could be made but this patch gives basic functional support. It uses the next available syscall number, 347. Once the syscall number is known, userspace support will be finalised/submitted to kexec-tools, various patches already exist. Originally based on a patch by Maxim Syrchin but updated and forward ported by various people.

These changes are: * The system peripheral I/O region we remap has increased from 0xFFFA0000..0xFFFFFFFF to 0xFFF78000..0xFFFFFFFF. * The increased I/O region forces changes to entry-macro.S and debug-macro.S due to ARM's limited immediate offset addressing modes. * Maximum number of GPIO banks increases to 5. * 2 MMC controllers so the board-setup code needs to specify which controller it wishes to use when calling at91_add_device_mmc(). Original patch from Nicolas Ferre. * [ARM] 4047/1: Add initial board support for Contec Hypercontrol Micro9 boards. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d941caa2537a01653704a8c1148d330a3b2755f1 (commit)] Contec Micro9 (H/M/L) boards based on Cirrus Logic ep93xx (ep9315/ep9307/ep9302).

These are basically AT91SAM9260's with different amounts of internal SRAM and Flash. We make use of the existing AT91SAM9260 support, but just perform run-time detection of the size of the internal SRAM. Original patch from Nicolas Ferre. * [ARM] 4221/1: S3C2443: DMA support [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f8271e57569d1a2e7061f1754a5bb797a13b302d (commit)] Add initialisation and mappings for S3C2443 DMA system

Filesystems

xattr flags and mount options. Introduces the ability to store cryptographic metadata into an lower file extended attribute rather than the lower file header region. The two new nmount options are: ecryptfs_xattr_metadata; when set, newly created files will have their cryptographic metadata stored in the extended attribute region of the file rather than the header; and ecryptfs_encrypted_view; when set this option causes eCryptfs to present applications a view of encrypted files as if the cryptographic metadata were stored in the file header, whether the metadata is actually stored in the header or in the extended attributes[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=17398957aa0a05ef62535060b41d103590dcc533 (commit)]

That way the APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3 is not there and UP boxen have no support for timer broadcasting. This was never noticed, because the lapic timer is only used for profiling on UP.
* ACPICA: Removed all 16-bit support. [http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=59fa85057e12ff135df54266722b2064c418fc05 (commit)] Support for 16-bit ACPICA has been completely removed since it is no longer necessary and it clutters the code. All 16-bit macros, types, and conditional compiles have been removed, cleaning up and simplifying the code across the entire subsystem. DOS support is no longer needed since the Linux firmware kit is now available.

The new design is much simpler, and reduces the overall code and data size of the kernel-resident ACPICA by approximately 5%. Also, it is now possible to obtain the ACPI tables very early during kernel initialization, even before dynamic memory management is initialized.

Remove /sys/firmware/acpi 2. Add ACPI device in device tree. File "eject" for every device that has _EJ0 method is moved from /sys/firmware to /sys/devices. Operation on this file is exactly the same as before. i.e. echo 1 to "eject" will cause hot removal of this device. Corresponding changes should be made in userspace for hot removal.
