Ingo Molnar 82f67cd9fc [PATCH] Add debugging feature /proc/timer_stat
Add /proc/timer_stats support: debugging feature to profile timer expiration.
Both the starting site, process/PID and the expiration function is captured.
This allows the quick identification of timer event sources in a system.

Sample output:

# echo 1 > /proc/timer_stats
# cat /proc/timer_stats

Thomas Gleixner 79bf2bb335 [PATCH] tick-management: dyntick / highres functionality
With Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Add functions to provide dynamic ticks and high resolution timers.  The code
which keeps track of jiffies and handles the long idle periods is shared
between tick based and high resolution timer based dynticks.  The dyntick
functionality can be disabled on the kernel commandline.  Provide also the
infrastructure to support high resolution timers.

Jonathan McDowell 55249cf750 i2c-parport: Add support for One For All remote JP1 interface
This simple patch adds support to i2c-parport for the One For All remote
JP1 parallel port interfaces which can be found detailed at:

http://www.hifi-remote.com/jp1/hardware.shtml

These allow access to the internal configuration EEPROM on various
remote controls and there are a variety of Windows tools that make use
of this hardware. I have tested this patch with the "simple" parallel
port device and a One For All URC-7562 and confirmed that the data read
using the eeprom i2c driver matches that returned by the Windows "IR"
JP1 tool.

David Brownell f37dd80ac2 i2c: Add driver suspend/resume/shutdown support
Driver model updates for the I2C core:

 - Add new suspend(), resume(), and shutdown() methods.  Use them in the
   standard driver model style; document them.

 - Minor doc updates to highlight zero-initialized fields in drivers, and
   the driver model accessors for "clientdata".

If any i2c drivers were previously using the old suspend/resume calls
in "struct driver", they were getting warning messages ... and will
now no longer work.  Other than that, this patch changes no behaviors;
and it lets I2C drivers use conventional PM and shutdown support.

Andi Kleen a98f0dd34d [PATCH] x86-64: Allow to run a program when a machine check event is detected
When a machine check event is detected (including a AMD RevF threshold
overflow event) allow to run a "trigger" program. This allows user space
to react to such events sooner.

The trigger is configured using a new trigger entry in the
machinecheck sysfs interface. It is currently shared between
all CPUs.

I also fixed the AMD threshold handler to run the machine
check polling code immediately to actually log any events
that might have caused the threshold interrupt.

Also added some documentation for the mce sysfs interface.

Evgeniy Dushistov cbcae39fa1 [PATCH] ufs2 write: mount as rw
These series of patches add UFS2 write-support.  UFS2 - is default file system
for recent versions of FreeBSD.

The main differences from UFS1 from write support point of view
are:
1)Not all inodes are allocated during formatation of disk.
2)All meta-data(pointer to data blocks) are 64bit(in UFS1 they
are 32bit).

So patch series consist of
1)make possible mount UFS2 in read-write mode
2)code to write ufs2 inodes and code to initialize inodes chunks.
3)work with 64bit meta-data

I made simple testing like create/deleting/writing/reading/truncating, also I
ran fsx-linux and untar and build kernel on UFS1 and UFS2, after that FreeBSD
fsck do not find any errors in fs.

This patch makes possible to mount ufs2 "rw", and updates UFS2 documentation:
remove note about bug(it fixed by reallocate blocks on the fly patch) and add
me in the list of people who want receive bug reports.

David Brownell 4c20386c8d [PATCH] GPIO core
This defines a simple and minimalist programming interface for GPIO APIs:

  - Documentation/gpio.txt ... describes things (read it)

  - include/asm-arm/gpio.h ... defines the ARM hook, which just punts
    to <asm/arch/gpio.h> for any implementation

  - include/asm-generic/gpio.h ... implement "can sleep" variants as calling
    the normal ones, for systems that don't handle i2c expanders.

The immediate need for such a cross-architecture API convention is to support
drivers that work the same on AT91 ARM and AVR32 AP7000 chips, which embed many
of the same controllers but have different CPUs.  However, several other users
have been reported, including a driver for a hardware watchdog chip and some
handhelds.org multi-CPU button drivers.

Frithiof Jensen 4f423ddf56 [PATCH] EDAC: Add memory scrubbing controls API to core
This is an attempt of providing an interface for memory scrubbing control in
EDAC.

This patch modifies the EDAC Core to provide the Interface for memory
controller modules to implment.

The following things are still outstanding:

 - K8 is the first implemenation,

   The patch provide a method of configuring the K8 hardware memory scrubber
   via the 'mcX' sysfs directory.  There should be some fallback to a generic
   scrubber implemented in software if the hardware does not support
   scrubbing.

   Or .. the scrubbing sysfs entry should not be visible at all.

 - Only works with SDRAM, not cache,

   The K8 can scrub cache and l2cache also - but I think this is not so
   useful as the cache is busy all the time (one hopes).

   One would also expect that cache scrubbing requires hardware support.

 - Error Handling,

   I would like that errors are returned to the user in "terms of file
   system".

 - Presentation,

   I chose Bandwidth in Bytes/Second as a representation of the scrubbing
   rate for the following reasons:

   I like that the sysfs entries are sort-of textual, related to something
   that makes sense instead of magical values that must be looked up.

   "My People" wants "% main memory scrubbed per hour" others prefer "%
   memory bandwidth used" as representation, "bandwith used" makes it easy to
   calculate both versions in one-liner scripts.

   If one later wants to scrub cache, the scaling becomes wierd for K8
   changing from "blocks of 64 byte memory" to "blocks of 64 cache lines" to
   "blocks of 64 bit".  Using "bandwidth used" makes sense in all three cases,
   (I.M.O.  anyway ;-).

 - Discovery,

   There is no way to discover the possible settings and what they do
   without reading the code and the documentation.

   *I* do not know how to make that work in a practical way.

 - Bugs(??),

   other tools can set invalid values in the memory scrub control register,
   those will read back as '-1', requiring the user to reset the scrub rate.
   This is how *I* think it should be.

 - Afflicting other areas of code,

   I made changes to edac_mc.c and edac_mc.h which will show up globally -
   this is not nice, it would be better that the memory scrubbing fuctionality
   and interface could be entirely contained within the memory controller it
   applies to.

Frithiof Jensen

edac_mc.c and its .h file is a CORE helper module for EDAC
driver modules. This provides the abstraction for device specific
drivers. It is fine to modify this CORE to provide help for
new features of the the drivers

Mathieu Desnoyers 23c887522e [PATCH] Relay: add CPU hotplug support
Mathieu originally needed to add this for tracing Xen, but it's something
that's needed for any application that can be tracing while cpus are added.

unplug isn't supported by this patch.  The thought was that at minumum a new
buffer needs to be added when a cpu comes up, but it wasn't worth the effort
to remove buffers on cpu down since they'd be freed soon anyway when the
channel was closed.

Michael Neuling 0a7b35cb18 [PATCH] Add retain_initrd boot option
Add retain_initrd option to control freeing of initrd memory after
extraction.  By default, free memory as previously.

The first boot will need to hold a copy of the in memory fs for the second
boot.  This image can be large (much larger than the kernel), hence we can
save time when the memory loader is slow.  Also, it reduces the memory
footprint while extracting the first boot since you don't need another copy
of the fs.

Tejun Heo 9ac7849e35 devres: device resource management
Implement device resource management, in short, devres.  A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function.  On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.

devreses are typed by associated release functions.  Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function.  Both usages are
supported.

devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).

This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.

* alloc/free	: devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region	: devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ		: devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA		: dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
		  dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
		  dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI		: pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
* iomap		: devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(),
		  devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(),
		  pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap()
