Architectures that handle DMA-non-coherent memory need to set
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to make sure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe: the
buffer doesn't share a cache with the others.Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori

driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loading -
This reverts commit 480b02df3aa9f07d1c7df0cd8be7a5ca73893455, since
Rafael reports that it causes occasional kernel paging request faults in
load_module().Dropping the module lock and re-taking it deep in the call-chain is
definitely not the right thing to do. That just turns the mutex from a
lock into a "random non-locking data structure" that doesn't actually
protect what it's supposed to protect.Requested-and-tested-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Certain firmware commands/operations to upgrade firmware could take several
seconds to complete. The code presently disables bottom half during these
operations which could lead to unpredictable behaviour in certain cases. This
patch now does all firmware upgrade operations asynchronously using a
completion variable.Signed-off-by: Sarveshwar Bandi

The commit 00b7c3395aec3df43de5bd02a3c5a099ca51169f
"sysctl: refactor integer handling proc code"
modified the behaviour of writing to /proc.
Before the commit, write("1\n") to /proc/sys/kernel/printk succeeded. But
now it returns EINVAL.This commit supports writing a single value to a multi-valued entry.

Alpha has a tsc like rpcc counter that it uses to manage time.
This can be converted to an actual clocksource instead of utilizing
the arch_gettimeoffset method that is really only there for legacy
systems with no continuous counter.Further cleanups could be made if alpha converted to the clockevent
model.CC: Thomas Gleixner

This adds:
alias: devname:
to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading
of the kernel module when the device node is accessed.Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too
much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common
cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty
useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts.The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The
program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory:
$ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d-dirty/modules.devname
# Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading.
microcode cpu/microcode c10:184
fuse fuse c10:229
ppp_generic ppp c108:0
tun net/tun c10:200
dm_mod mapper/control c10:235Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the
static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules
get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed:
$ /sbin/udevd --debug
...
static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184
static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229
static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0
static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200
static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235
udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666
udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow
the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run
a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor
numbers.Note:
The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance*
device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited
systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a
control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of
device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used.This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized
kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to
paper-over broken concepts. Thanks! :)Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman
