This patch adds a simple device driver to expose the iBT interface on
Aspeed SOCs (AST2400 and AST2500) as a character device. Such SOCs are
commonly used as BMCs (BaseBoard Management Controllers) and this
driver implements the BMC side of the BT interface.The BT (Block Transfer) interface is used to perform in-band IPMI
communication between a host and its BMC. Entire messages are buffered
before sending a notification to the other end, host or BMC, that
there is data to be read. Usually, the host emits requests and the BMC
responses but the specification provides a mean for the BMC to send
SMS Attention (BMC-to-Host attention or System Management Software
attention) messages.For this purpose, the driver introduces a specific ioctl on the
device: 'BT_BMC_IOCTL_SMS_ATN' that can be used by the system running
on the BMC to signal the host of such an event.The device name defaults to '/dev/ipmi-bt-host'

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.8 kernel cycle. The big
news is the completion of the chardev ABI which I'm very happy about
and apart from that it's an ordinary, quite busy cycle. The details
are below.The patches are tested in linux-next for some time, patches to other
subsystem mostly have ACKs.I got overly ambitious with configureing lines as input for IRQ lines
but it turns out that some controllers have their interrupt-enable and
input-enabling in orthogonal settings so the assumption that all IRQ
lines are input lines does not hold. Oh well, revert and back to the
drawing board with that.Core changes:
- The big item is of course the completion of the character device
ABI. It has now replaced and surpassed the former unmaintainable
sysfs ABI: we can now hammer (bitbang) individual lines or sets of
lines and read individual lines or sets of lines from userspace,
and we can also register to listen to GPIO events from userspace.As a tie-in we have two new tools in tools/gpio: gpio-hammer and
gpio-event-mon that illustrate the proper use of the new ABI. As
someone said: the wild west days of GPIO are now over.- Continued to remove the pointless ARCH_[WANT_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB
Kconfig symbols. I'm patching hexagon, openrisc, powerpc, sh,
unicore, ia64 and microblaze. These are either ACKed by their
maintainers or patched anyways after a grace period and no response
from maintainers.Some archs (ARM) come in from their trees, and others (x86) are
still not fixed, so I might send a second pull request to root it
out later in this merge window, or just defer to v4.9.- The GPIO tools are moved to the tools build system.
New drivers:
- New driver for the MAX77620/MAX20024.
- New driver for the Intel Merrifield.
- Enabled PCA953x for the TI PCA9536.
- Enabled PCA953x for the Intel Edison.
- Enabled R8A7792 in the RCAR driver.
Driver improvements:
- The STMPE and F7188x now supports the .get_direction() callback.
- The Xilinx driver supports setting multiple lines at once.
- ACPI support for the Vulcan GPIO controller.
- The MMIO GPIO driver supports device tree probing.
- The Acer One 10 is supported through the _DEP ACPI attribute.
Cleanups:
- A major cleanup of the OF/DT support code. It is way easier to
read and understand now, probably this improves performance too.- Drop a few redundant .owner assignments.
- Remove CLPS711x boardfile support: we are 100% DT"

Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX
(CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped
without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict,
precise and predictable. Specifically this interface:1/ Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte,
pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.2/ Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault
scenarios are supported.For example, by forcing MADV_DONTFORK semantics and omitting MAP_PRIVATE
support device-dax guarantees that a mapping always behaves/performs the
same once established. It is the "what you see is what you get" access
mechanism to differentiated memory vs filesystem DAX which has
filesystem specific implementation semantics.Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
targeted for exclusive allocations of performance differentiated memory
ranges.This commit is limited to the base device driver infrastructure to
associate a dax device with pmem range.Cc: Jeff Moyer

Currently the reset/power off handlers (POWER_RESET) and Adaptive Voltage
Scaling class (POWER_AVS) are not built when POWER_SUPPLY is disabled.
The POWER_RESET is also not visible in drivers main section of config.However they do not really depend on power supply so they can be built
always. The objects for power supply drivers already depend on
particular Kconfig symbols so there is no need for any changes in
drivers/power/Makefile.This allows selecting POWER_RESET from main drivers config section and
fixes following build warning (encountered on ARM exynos defconfig when

Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host
in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep
strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer
(FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the
flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash
chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their
physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features
of SSDs.LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs
LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection,
and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block
management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata
persistence are still handled by the device.The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and
(multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across
targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets
implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space
applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store,
object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be
application-specific.Contributions in this patch from:

Intel(R) Trace Hub (TH) is a set of hardware blocks (subdevices) that
produce, switch and output trace data from multiple hardware and
software sources over several types of trace output ports encoded
in System Trace Protocol (MIPI STPv2) and is intended to perform
full system debugging.For these subdevices, we create a bus, where they can be discovered
and configured by userspace software.This patch creates this bus infrastructure, three types of devices
(source, output, switch), resource allocation, some callback mechanisms
to facilitate communication between the subdevices' drivers and some

A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace
Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such
devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources
to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do
that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel
identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The
STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to
distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP
stream.This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism
for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace
source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being
defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy
definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency.For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and
mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism.For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that
can be connected to an stm device at run time.Cc: linux-api@vger.kernel.org

This patch adds just providers part of the framework just to enable easy
review.Up until now, NVMEM drivers like eeprom were stored in drivers/misc,
where they all had to duplicate pretty much the same code to register
a sysfs file, allow in-kernel users to access the content of the devices
they were driving, etc.This was also a problem as far as other in-kernel users were involved,
since the solutions used were pretty much different from on driver to
another, there was a rather big abstraction leak.This introduction of this framework aims at solving this. It also
introduces DT representation for consumer devices to go get the data

To enable sharing of the arm_pmu code with arm64, this patch factors it
out to drivers/perf/. A new drivers/perf directory is added for
performance monitor drivers to live under.MAINTAINERS is updated accordingly. Files added previously without a
corresponsing MAINTAINERS update (perf_regs.c, perf_callchain.c, and
perf_event.h) are also added.Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

Pull libnvdimm subsystem from Dan Williams:
"The libnvdimm sub-system introduces, in addition to the
libnvdimm-core, 4 drivers / enabling modules:NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory
devices (NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface table).After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers "region"
devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block
device (disk) interface to the memory.PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of
persistent memory address ranges is re-worked to drive
PMEM-namespaces emitted by the libnvdimm-core.In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the ability to assert
that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all the way
through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent media.
See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through
"Block Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference
of this driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent
memory is mapped into system address space at any given point in
time.Per-NVDIMM windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access
different portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not
support DAX.BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss).The sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do
not know they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's
disk's rarely ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly
gets a CRC error on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always
silently. Until an application is audited to be robust in the
presence of sector-tearing the usage of BTT is recommended.Thanks to: Ross Zwisler, Jeff Moyer, Vishal Verma, Christoph Hellwig,

A struct nvdimm_bus is the anchor device for registering nvdimm
resources and interfaces, for example, a character control device,
nvdimm devices, and I/O region devices. The ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table) is one possible platform description for such
non-volatile memory resources in a system. The nfit.ko driver attaches
to the "ACPI0012" device that indicates the presence of the NFIT and
parses the table to register a struct nvdimm_bus instance.Cc:

AMD GPU devices are dependent on AMD IOMMU controller functionality to allow
the GPU to access a process's virtual memory address space, without the need
for pinning the memory.This patch changes the order in the drivers makefile, so iommu/ subsystem is
linked before gpu/ subsystem. That way, if the gpu and iommu drivers are
compiled inside the kernel image (not as modules), the correct order of device
loading is still maintained (iommu module is loaded before gpu module).Signed-off-by: Oded Gabbay

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1.We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good
thing, but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines
removed overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid
details.The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder
code out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel. This is code
that has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the
tens of millions of devices with no issues. Yes, the code is horrid,
and the userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going
to change due to legacy issues that we have no control over. Because
so many devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable,
might as well promote it out of staging.This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
participating agreed that this was the best way forward.There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
that work for another year at the earliest. If that ever happens, and
Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been
doing it for the past few years with no problems. I'll send a
MAINTAINERS entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk
to the Google developers about if they are willing to help with it or
not, last I checked they were, which was good.All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no

CoreSight components are compliant with the ARM CoreSight
architecture specification and can be connected in various
topologies to suit a particular SoC tracing needs. These trace
components can generally be classified as sources, links and
sinks. Trace data produced by one or more sources flows through
the intermediate links connecting the source to the currently
selected sink.The CoreSight framework provides an interface for the CoreSight trace
drivers to register themselves with. It's intended to build up a
topological view of the CoreSight components and configure the
correct serie of components on user input via sysfs.For eg., when enabling a source, the framework builds up a path
consisting of all the components connecting the source to the
currently selected sink(s) and enables all of them.The framework also supports switching between available sinks
and provides status information to user space applications
through the debugfs interface.Signed-off-by: Pratik Patel
