commit 5590f3196b29 ("drivers/core/of: Add symlink to device-tree from
devices with an OF node") added a symlink called "of_node" to sysfs
however the documentation describes it as "of_path".Fix the documentation to match what the code actually does.

It can be useful for JIT software to be aware of MIDR_EL1 and
REVIDR_EL1 to ascertain the presence of any core errata that could
affect code generation.This patch exposes these registers through sysfs:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$ID/regs/identification/midr_el1
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$ID/regs/identification/revidr_el1where $ID is the cpu number. For big.LITTLE systems, one can have a
mixture of cores (e.g. Cortex A53 and Cortex A57), thus all CPUs need
to be enumerated.If the kernel does not have valid information to populate these entries
with, an empty string is returned to userspace.Cc: Mark Rutland

New tables can be loaded by creating directories under /config/table/
and writing the AML code into the aml table attribute. Various table
attributes will be readable once the table is successfully loaded.Unloading tables is not supported at the moment, but it can be easily
implemented once ACPI loading functions provide a table handle to be

First round of IIO new device support, features and cleanups for the 4.8 cycle.
New device support
* ads1015
- add ads1115 support
* bma220 accelerometer
- new driver
- triggered buffer support.
* bmc150
- add bmm150 support.
* bmp280
- bme280 support with addition of humidity channel.
* max5487 potentiometer
- new driver
* MMA7660FC accelerometer.
- New driver
* st-pressure
- support for the lps22hb
* loop trigger.
- This one is *nasty* but we have real applications (parrot drones) where
it is useful. The trigger basically spins as hard as it can firing off
a new trigger each time all triggered devices come back to say they are
done. It doesn't hang a machine even when doing it on a dummy driver.
A lot nicer than having this implemented within lots of device drivers
anyway.Core stuff
* Add support to create IIO devices via configfs (similar to we did for
triggers a while back) + docs.
* New channel types
- IIO_ELECTRICAL_CONDUCTIVITY
* Couple of MAINTAINERS patches to list the device tree bindings.
* Make trigger ops structure non optional (comment fix). It hasn't been for
an awful long time, but that's not what the description said.New features
* ak8975
- support adapters that are limited to byte data only by allowing the
emulated block read i2c function that was recently introduced.
* atlas-ph
- support atlas-ec (electrical conductivity sensor)
* bmi160
- add available frequency and scale attributes to make the driver
more user friendly (and avoid having to read the datasheet to know
what will work).
* dummy
- move creation to configfs interface. It's not real hardware so we
are not that worried about the ABI breakage ;)
* mma8452
- oversampling ration support
* nau7802
- expose available gains to make life easier for userspace.
* st-sensors
- allow use of emulation for SMBus block reads as all the st parts support
it.
* ti-ads1015
- list datasheet names to allow their use by inkernel consumers.
* Various module alias additions to help auto probing. Drop one redundant one
as well.Cleanups
* ad7266, ad7476, ad7887, ad7923, ad799x
- use direct mode claim function rather than open coding it during sensor
read (prevents switching on buffers mid read).
* ad7793, ad7791
- use direct mode claim to prevent frequency changes when buffers running.
* afe440x - These are ABI breaking but the driver requires custom userspace
code to do anything useful anyway and that is still being written and under
control of TI. Ultimately we may have other libraries to do pulse
oximetry with these devices but we aren't aware of any yet.
- kernel-doc format fixes
- drop ifdef fun around of_match_ptr - it's not worth the mess to save
a tiny amount of space.
- drop some unnecessary register initializations.
- drop the weird locked gain modes as they gain us nothing (can just set
all gains separately).
- remove handling of offset attributes seeing as no channels actually have
them (oops)
- Drop the LED3 input channel as it's an alias for ALED2.
- *big one* remove channel names - an experiment that turned out to not
make sense - see patch for details.
- use regmap fields to clean up code.
- tie the tia gain stages to appropriate channels in the ABI as that is
what they really effect. Same with the LED currents.
- cleanout some unused defines and fix a missnamed one.
* atlas-ph
- reorganise to allow support of other similar parts.
* bmc150
- document supported chips in kconfig help.
* jsa1212
- drop an unneeded i2c functionality check for functionality the driver
doesn't use.
* mxs-lradc
- simply touch screen registration code.
- remove the touch screen unregister as all devm based now.
- disable only those channels that are masked in hardware stop (others
are already dealt with elsewhere)
* st-sensors
- unexport st_sensors_get_buffer_element as nothing outside the st-sensors
core driver uses it.
- fix handling of failure to start up regulators.
* tpl0102
- drop an i2c functionality test for features that aren't needed.
* ti-am335x
- use variable name rather than type in sizeof for clarity.
- use SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS helper macro to tidy up a bit.Tools
* Add install / uninstall to makefile. Someone cares, so presumably
some people will find it useful!
* generic_buffer
- rename to iio_generic_buffer to line up with other tools.
- handle cleanup when receiving signals
- Add a --device-num option and a --trigger-num option rather than
relying on naming which doesn't work if you have two of the same part.

Jonathan writes:
First round of iio fixes for the 4.7 cycle.
A slightly bumper set due to travel delaying the pull request and a fair few
issues with the recent merge window patches. Patches all over the place.
The st-sensors one is probably the most involved, but definitly solves the
issues seen. Note there are some other issues around that handler
(and the fact that a lot of boards tie a level interrupt chip to an
edge interrupt only irq chip). These are not regressions however, so
will turn up the slow route.* core
- iio_trigger_attach_pollfunc had some really badly wrong error handling.
Another nasty triggered whilst chasing down issues with the st sensors
rework below.
* ad5592r
- fix an off by one error when allocating channels.
* am2315
- a stray mutex unlock before we ever take the lock.
* apds9960
- missing a parent in the driver model (which should be the i2c device).
Result is it doesn't turn up under /sys/bus/i2c/devices which some
userspace code uses for repeatable device identification.
* as3935
- ABI usage bug which meant a processed value was reported as raw. Now
reporting scale as well to ensure userspace has the info it needs.
- Don't return processed value via the buffer - it doesn't conform to
the ABI and will overflow in some cases.
- Fix a wrongly sized buffer which would overflow trashing part of the
stack. Also move it onto the heap as part of the fix.
* bh1780
- a missing return after write in debugfs lead to an incorrect read and
a null pointer dereference.
- dereferencing the wrong pointer in suspend and resume leading to
unpredictable results.
- assign a static name to avoid accidentally ending up with no name if
loaded via device tree.
* bmi160
- output data rate for the accelerometer was incorrectly reported. Fix it.
- writing the output data rate was also wrong due to reverse parameters.
* bmp280
- error message for wrong chip ID gave the wrong expected value.
* hdc100x
- mask for writing the integration time was wrong allowin g us to get
'stuck' in a particular value with no way back.
- temperature reported in celsius rather than millicelsius as per the
ABI.
- Get rid of some incorrect data shifting which lead to readings being
rather incorrect.
* max44000
- drop scale attribute for proximity as it is an unscaled value (depends
on what is in range rather than anything knowable at the detector).
* st-pressure
- ABI compliance fixes - units were wrong.
* st-sensors
- We introduced some nasty issues with the recent switch over to a
a somewhat threaded handler in that we broke using a software trigger
with these devices. Now do it properly. It's a larger patch than ideal
for a fix, but the logic is straight forward.
- Make sure the trigger is initialized before requesting the interrupt.
This matters now the interrupt can be shared. Before it was ugly and wrong
but short of flakey hardware could not be triggered.
- Hammer down the dataready pin at boot - otherwise with really
unlucky timing things could get interestingly wedged requiring a hard power
down of the chip.

every time we modify the output.At the moment this file exports only one value -- the number of

Some ethernet adapter vendors are supplying products which support optional
(payed license) features. On some adapters this includes a hardware iscsi
initiator. The same adapters in a normal (no extra licenses) mode of
operation can be used as a software iscsi initiator. In addition, software
iscsi boot initiators are becoming a standard part of many vendors uefi
implementations. This is creating difficulties during early boot/install
determining the proper configuration method for these adapters when they
are used as a boot device.The attached patch creates sysfs entries to expose information from the
acpi header of the ibft table. This information allows for a method to
easily determining if an ibft table was created by a ethernet card's
firmware or the system uefi/bios. In the case of a hardware initiator this
information in combination with the pci vendor and device id can be used
to ascertain any vendor specific behaviors that need to be accommodated.Reviewed-by: Lee Duncan

In order to create a relationship model between the channels and the
management object, we are adding support for object hierarchy to the
drivers. This patch simplifies the userspace application development.
We will not have to traverse different firmware paths based on device
tree or ACPI based kernels.No matter what flavor of kernel is used, objects will be represented as
platform devices.The new layout is as follows:
hidmam_10: hidma-mgmt@0x5A000000 {
compatible = "qcom,hidma-mgmt-1.0";
...hidma_10: hidma@0x5a010000 {
compatible = "qcom,hidma-1.0";
...
}
}The hidma_mgmt_init detects each instance of the hidma-mgmt-1.0 objects
in device tree and calls into the channel driver to create platform devices
for each child of the management object.Signed-off-by: Sinan Kaya

Currently the TIA gain settings are exported to userspace as sysfs
entries that do not clearly represent their internal relation to the
sampling stages. The gain settings are enabled on a per-stage basis,
this can be seen in figure 24 of the current AFE4404 datasheet.
These gain settings should therefore be tied to the channels that are
read during these stages. Make this change here.Signed-off-by: Andrew F. Davis
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron -
These AFEs have 4 ADC mesuring stages (called LED2, ALED2, LED1, and
ALED1 in the datasheet), we map these as channels, these stages can serve
different purposes depending on the application. For instance the AFE4404
has an additional LED (LED3), this LED can be timed to be active during
stage 2 (or anystage, but the datasheet describes this case and the name
of the stage reflects this use). This ability is used further in upcoming
parts that tie the front-end gain and the LED timings together. For these
reasons we remove explicit naming the channels.Without channel names it is best that the index numbers are in order to
match the stage number, reorder the channel numbers.Signed-off-by: Andrew F. Davis

Locking the two gain stages to the same setting adds no value for us,
so initialize them as unlocked and remove the sysfs for unlocking them.
This also allows us to greatly simplify showing and setting the gain
