This patch hooks Calgary into the build, the x86-64 IOMMU
initialization paths, and introduces the Calgary specific bits. The
implementation draws inspiration from both PPC (which has support for
the same chip but requires firmware support which we don't have on
x86-64) and gart. Calgary is different from gart in that it support a
translation table per PHB, as opposed to the single gart aperture.Changes from previous version:
* Addition of boot-time disablement for bus-level translation/isolation
(e.g, enable userspace DMA for things like X)
* Usage of newer IOMMU abstraction functionsSigned-off-by: Muli Ben-Yehuda

The md/dev-XXX/state file can now be written:
"faulty" simulates an error on the device
"remove" removes the device from the array (if it is not busy)Signed-off-by: Neil Brown
Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds -
This allows the state of an md/array to be directly controlled via sysfs and
adds the ability to stop and array without tearing it down.Array states/settings:
clear
No devices, no size, no level
Equivalent to STOP_ARRAY ioctl
inactive
May have some settings, but array is not active
all IO results in error
When written, doesn't tear down array, but just stops it
suspended (not supported yet)
All IO requests will block. The array can be reconfigured.
Writing this, if accepted, will block until array is quiescent
readonly
no resync can happen. no superblocks get written.
write requests fail
read-auto
like readonly, but behaves like 'clean' on a write request.clean - no pending writes, but otherwise active.
When written to inactive array, starts without resync
If a write request arrives then
if metadata is known, mark 'dirty' and switch to 'active'.
if not known, block and switch to write-pending
If written to an active array that has pending writes, then fails.
active
fully active: IO and resync can be happening.
When written to inactive array, starts with resyncwrite-pending (not supported yet)
clean, but writes are blocked waiting for 'active' to be written.active-idle
like active, but no writes have been seen for a while (100msec).Signed-off-by: Neil Brown

When a md array has been idle (no writes) for 20msecs it is marked as 'clean'.
This delay turns out to be too short for some real workloads. So increase it
to 200msec (the time to update the metadata should be a tiny fraction of that)
and make it sysfs-configurable.Signed-off-by: Neil Brown

Implement the time sources for i386 (acpi_pm, cyclone, hpet, pit, and tsc).
With this patch, the conversion of the i386 arch to the generic timekeeping
code should be complete.The patch should be fairly straight forward, only adding the new clocksources.

This introduces the clocksource management infrastructure. A clocksource is a
driver-like architecture generic abstraction of a free-running counter. This
code defines the clocksource structure, and provides management code for
registering, selecting, accessing and scaling clocksources.Additionally, this includes the trivial jiffies clocksource, a lowest common
denominator clocksource, provided mainly for use as an example.[hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp: Don't enable IRQ too early]

Add a /proc//attr/keycreate entry that stores the appropriate context for
newly-created keys. Modify the selinux_key_alloc hook to make use of the new
entry. Update the flask headers to include a new "setkeycreate" permission
for processes. Update the flask headers to include a new "create" permission
for keys. Use the create permission to restrict which SIDs each task can
assign to newly-created keys. Add a new parameter to the security hook
"security_key_alloc" to indicate whether it is being invoked by the kernel, or
from userspace. If it is being invoked by the kernel, the security hook
should never fail. Update the documentation to reflect these changes.Signed-off-by: Michael LeMay

Add a control filesystem to fuse, replacing the attributes currently exported
through sysfs. An empty directory '/sys/fs/fuse/connections' is still created
in sysfs, and mounting the control filesystem here provides backward
compatibility.Advantages of the control filesystem over the previous solution:
- allows the object directory and the attributes to be owned by the
filesystem owner, hence letting unpriviled users abort the
filesystem connection- does not suffer from module unload race
