Raw Normal View History

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[PATCH] Linux Kernel Dump Test Module A simple module to test Linux Kernel Dump mechanism. This module uses jprobes to install/activate pre-defined crash points. At different crash points, various types of crashing scenarios are created like a BUG(), panic(), exception, recursive loop and stack overflow. The user can activate a crash point with specific type by providing parameters at the time of module insertion. Please see the file header for usage information. The module is based on the Linux Kernel Dump Test Tool by Fernando <http://lkdtt.sourceforge.net>. This module could be merged with mainline. Jprobes is used here so that the context in which crash point is hit, could be maintained. This implements all the crash points as done by LKDTT except the one in the middle of tasklet_action().

atmel_tc library Create <linux/atmel_tc.h> based on <asm-arm/arch-at91/at91-tc.h> and the at91sam9263 and at32ap7000 datasheets. Most AT91 and AT32 SOCs have one or two of these TC blocks, which include three 16-bit timers that can be interconnected in various ways. These TC blocks can be used for external interfacing (such as PWM and measurement), or used as somewhat quirky sixteen-bit timers. Changes relative to the original version: * Drop unneeded inclusion of <linux/mutex.h> * Support an arbitrary number of TC blocks * Return a struct with information about a TC block from atmel_tc_alloc() instead of using a combination of return values and "out" parameters. * ioremap() the I/O registers on allocation * Look up clocks and irqs for all channels * Add "name" parameter to atmel_tc_alloc() and use this when requesting the iomem resource. * Check if the platform provided the necessary resources at probe() time instead of when the TCB is allocated.

drivers/misc: support for the pressure sensor BMP085 from Bosch Sensortec This driver adds support for the BMP085 digital pressure sensor from Bosch Sensortec. It exposes a sysfs api to userspace where pressure and temperature measurement results can be read from the pressure0_input and temp0_input file. The chip is able to calculate the average of up to eight samples to increase the accuracy. This feature can be controlled by writing to the oversampling file. The BMP085 digital pressure sensor can measure ambient air pressure and temperature. Both values can be obtained from sysfs files. The pressure is measured by reading from pressure0_input. Valid values range from 30000 to 110000 pascal with a resolution of 1 pascal (=0.01 millibar). temp0_input holds the current temperature in degree celsius, multiplied by 10. This results in a resolution of a tenth degree celsius. Values range from -400 to 850. To increase the accuracy, this chip can calculate the average of 1, 2, 4 or 8 samples. This behavior is controlled through the oversampling sysfs file. Two to the power of the value written to that file specifies how many samples will be used. Valid values: 0..3.

[PATCH] ioc4: Enable build on non-SN2 The SGI PCI-RT card, based on the SGI IOC4 chip, will be made available on Altix XE (x86_64) platforms in the near future. As such it is now a misnomer for the IOC4 base device driver to live under drivers/sn, and would complicate builds for non-SN2. This patch moves the IOC4 base driver code from drivers/sn to drivers/misc, and updates the associated Makefiles and Kconfig files to allow building on non-SN2 configs. Due to the resulting change in link order, it is now necessary to use late_initcall() for IOC4 subdriver initialization.

kgdb: add kgdb internal test suite This patch adds regression tests for testing the kgdb core and arch specific implementation. The kgdb test suite is designed to be built into the kernel and not as a module because it uses a number of low level kernel and kgdb primitives which should not be exported externally. The kgdb test suite is designed as a KGDB I/O module which simulates the communications that a debugger would have with kgdb. The tests are broken up in to a line by line and referenced here as a "get" which is kgdb requesting input and "put" which is kgdb sending a response. The kgdb suite can be invoked from the kernel command line arguments system or executed dynamically at run time. The test suite uses the variable "kgdbts" to obtain the information about which tests to run and to configure the verbosity level. The following are the various characters you can use with the kgdbts= line: When using the "kgdbts=" you only choose one of the following core test types: A = Run all the core tests silently V1 = Run all the core tests with minimal output V2 = Run all the core tests in debug mode You can also specify optional tests: N## = Go to sleep with interrupts of for ## seconds to test the HW NMI watchdog F## = Break at do_fork for ## iterations S## = Break at sys_open for ## iterations NOTE: that the do_fork and sys_open tests are mutually exclusive. To invoke the kgdb test suite from boot you use a kernel start argument as follows: kgdbts=V1 kgdbwait Or if you wanted to perform the NMI test for 6 seconds and do_fork test for 100 forks, you could use: kgdbts=V1N6F100 kgdbwait The test suite can also be invoked at run time with: echo kgdbts=V1N6F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Or as another example: echo kgdbts=V2 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts When developing a new kgdb arch specific implementation or using these tests for the purpose of regression testing, several invocations are required. 1) Boot with the test suite enabled by using the kernel arguments "kgdbts=V1F100 kgdbwait" ## If kgdb arch specific implementation has NMI use "kgdbts=V1N6F100 2) After the system boot run the basic test. echo kgdbts=V1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts 3) Run the concurrency tests. It is best to use n+1 while loops where n is the number of cpus you have in your system. The example below uses only two loops. ## This tests break points on sys_open while [ 1 ] ; do find / > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done & while [ 1 ] ; do find / > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done & echo kgdbts=V1S10000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts fg # and hit control-c fg # and hit control-c ## This tests break points on do_fork while [ 1 ] ; do date > /dev/null ; done & while [ 1 ] ; do date > /dev/null ; done & echo kgdbts=V1F1000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts fg # and hit control-c Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

VMware Balloon driver This is a standalone version of VMware Balloon driver. Ballooning is a technique that allows hypervisor dynamically limit the amount of memory available to the guest (with guest cooperation). In the overcommit scenario, when hypervisor set detects that it needs to shuffle some memory, it instructs the driver to allocate certain number of pages, and the underlying memory gets returned to the hypervisor. Later hypervisor may return memory to the guest by reattaching memory to the pageframes and instructing the driver to "deflate" balloon. We are submitting a standalone driver because KVM maintainer (Avi Kivity) expressed opinion (rightly) that our transport does not fit well into virtqueue paradigm and thus it does not make much sense to integrate with virtio. There were also some concerns whether current ballooning technique is the right thing. If there appears a better framework to achieve this we are prepared to evaluate and switch to using it, but in the meantime we'd like to get this driver upstream. We want to get the driver accepted in distributions so that users do not have to deal with an out-of-tree module and many distributions have "upstream first" requirement. The driver has been shipping for a number of years and users running on VMware platform will have it installed as part of VMware Tools even if it will not come from a distribution, thus there should not be additional risk in pulling the driver into mainline. The driver will only activate if host is VMware so everyone else should not be affected at all.
