Pull staging tree changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman: "Here is the big staging tree pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge window. Loads of changes here, and we just narrowly added more lines than we added: 622 files changed, 28356 insertions(+), 26059 deletions(-) But, good news is that there is a number of subsystems that moved out of the staging tree, to their respective "real" portions of the kernel. Code that moved out was: - iio core code - mei driver - vme core and bridge drivers There was one broken network driver that moved into staging as a step before it is removed from the tree (pc300), and there was a few new drivers added to the tree: - new iio drivers - gdm72xx wimax USB driver - ipack subsystem and 2 drivers All of the movements around have acks from the various subsystem maintainers, and all of this has been in the linux-next tree for a while.

memory: emif: add basic infrastructure for EMIF driver

2012-05-02T07:10:49Z

EMIF is an SDRAM controller used in various Texas Instruments SoCs. EMIF supports, based on its revision, one or more of LPDDR2/DDR2/DDR3 protocols. Add the basic infrastructure for EMIF driver that includes driver registration, probe, parsing of platform data etc. Signed-off-by: Aneesh V Reviewed-by: Santosh Shilimkar Reviewed-by: Benoit Cousson [santosh.shilimkar@ti.com: Moved to drivers/memory from drivers/misc] Signed-off-by: Santosh Shilimkar Tested-by: Lokesh Vutla Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Staging: VME: move VME drivers out of staging

2012-04-26T19:34:58Z

This moves the VME core, VME board drivers, and VME bridge drivers out of the drivers/staging/vme/ area to drivers/vme/. The VME device drivers have not moved out yet due to some API questions they are still working through, that should happen soon, hopefully.

IIO: Move the core files to drivers/iio

2012-04-25T18:11:38Z

Take the core support + the kfifo buffer implentation out of staging. Whilst we are far from done in improving this subsystem it is now at a stage where the userspae interfaces (provided by the core) can be considered stable. Drivers will follow over a longer time scale. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Extcon (external connector): import Android's switch class and modify.

2012-04-20T16:21:11Z

External connector class (extcon) is based on and an extension of Android kernel's switch class located at linux/drivers/switch/. This patch provides the before-extension switch class moved to the location where the extcon will be located (linux/drivers/extcon/) and updates to handle class properly. The before-extension class, switch class of Android kernel, commits imported are: switch: switch class and GPIO drivers. (splitted) Author: Mike Lockwood switch: Use device_create instead of device_create_drvdata. Author: Arve Hjønnevåg In this patch, upon the commits of Android kernel, we have added: - Relocated and renamed for extcon. - Comments, module name, and author information are updated - Code clean for successing patches - Bugfix: enabling write access without write functions - Class/device/sysfs create/remove handling - Added comments about uevents - Format changes for extcon_dev_register() to have a parent dev. Signed-off-by: MyungJoo Ham Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park Reviewed-by: Mark Brown -- Changes from v7 - Compiler error fixed when it is compiled as a module. - Removed out-of-date Kconfig entry Changes from v6 - Updated comment/strings - Revised "Android-compatible" mode. * Automatically activated if CONFIG_ANDROID && !CONFIG_ANDROID_SWITCH * Creates /sys/class/switch/*, which is a copy of /sys/class/extcon/* Changes from v5 - Split the patch - Style fixes - "Android-compatible" mode is enabled by Kconfig option. Changes from v2 - Updated name_show - Sysfs entries are handled by class itself. - Updated the method to add/remove devices for the class - Comments on uevent send - Able to become a module - Compatible with Android platform Changes from RFC - Renamed to extcon (external connector) from multistate switch - Added a seperated directory (drivers/extcon) - Added kerneldoc comments - Removed unused variables from extcon_gpio.c - Added ABI Documentation.

Merge branch 'for-next' of git://gitorious.org/kernel-hsi/kernel-hsi

2012-04-02T16:50:40Z

Pull HSI (High Speed Synchronous Serial Interface) framework from Carlos Chinea: "The High Speed Synchronous Serial Interface (HSI) is a serial interface mainly used for connecting application engines (APE) with cellular modem engines (CMT) in cellular handsets. The framework is currently being used for some people and we would like to see it integrated into the kernel for 3.3. There is no HW controller drivers in this pull, but some people have already some of them pending which they would like to push as soon as this integrated. I am also working on the acceptance for an TI OMAP one, based on a compatible legacy version of the interface called SSI." Ok, so it didn't get into 3.3, but here it is pulled into 3.4.

Pull "remoteproc/rpmsg: new subsystem" from Arnd Bergmann: "This new subsystem provides a common way to talk to secondary processors on an SoC, e.g. a DSP, GPU or service processor, using virtio as the transport. In the long run, it should replace a few dozen vendor specific ways to do the same thing, which all never made it into the upstream kernel. There is a broad agreement that rpmsg is the way to go here and several vendors have started working on replacing their own subsystems. Two branches each add one virtio protocol number. Fortunately the numbers were agreed upon in advance, so there are only context changes.

telephony: Move to staging

rpmsg: add virtio-based remote processor messaging bus

2012-02-08T20:53:58Z

Add a virtio-based inter-processor communication bus, which enables kernel drivers to communicate with entities, running on remote processors, over shared memory using a simple messaging protocol. Every pair of AMP processors share two vrings, which are used to send and receive the messages over shared memory. The header of every message sent on the rpmsg bus contains src and dst addresses, which make it possible to multiplex several rpmsg channels on the same vring. Every rpmsg channel is a device on this bus. When a channel is added, and an appropriate rpmsg driver is found and probed, it is also assigned a local rpmsg address, which is then bound to the driver's callback. When inbound messages carry the local address of a bound driver, its callback is invoked by the bus. This patch provides a kernel interface only; user space interfaces will be later exposed by kernel users of this rpmsg bus. Designed with Brian Swetland .

remoteproc: add framework for controlling remote processors

2012-02-08T20:52:56Z

Modern SoCs typically employ a central symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) application processor running Linux, with several other asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP) heterogeneous processors running different instances of operating system, whether Linux or any other flavor of real-time OS. Booting a remote processor in an AMP configuration typically involves: - Loading a firmware which contains the OS image - Allocating and providing it required system resources (e.g. memory) - Programming an IOMMU (when relevant) - Powering on the device This patch introduces a generic framework that allows drivers to do that. In the future, this framework will also include runtime power management and error recovery. Based on (but now quite far from) work done by Fernando Guzman Lugo . ELF loader was written by Mark Grosen , based on msm's Peripheral Image Loader (PIL) by Stephen Boyd . Designed with Brian Swetland .
