Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki: "These are mostly fixes and cleanups all over, although there are a few items that sort of fall into the new feature category. First off, we have new callbacks for PM domains that should help us to handle some issues related to device initialization in a better way. There also is some consolidation in the unified device properties API area allowing us to use that inferface for accessing data coming from platform initialization code in addition to firmware-provided data. We have some new device/CPU IDs in a few drivers, support for new chips and a new cpufreq driver too. Specifics: - Generic PM domains support update including new PM domain callbacks to handle device initialization better (Russell King, Rafael J Wysocki, Kevin Hilman) - Unified device properties API update including a new mechanism for accessing data provided by platform initialization code (Rafael J Wysocki, Adrian Hunter) - ARM cpuidle update including ARM32/ARM64 handling consolidation (Daniel Lezcano) - intel_idle update including support for the Silvermont Core in the Baytrail SOC and for the Airmont Core in the Cherrytrail and Braswell SOCs (Len Brown, Mathias Krause) - New cpufreq driver for Hisilicon ACPU (Leo Yan) - intel_pstate update including support for the Knights Landing chip (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli, Kristen Carlson Accardi) - QorIQ cpufreq driver update (Tang Yuantian, Arnd Bergmann) - powernv cpufreq driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat) - devfreq update including Tegra support changes (Tomeu Vizoso, MyungJoo Ham, Chanwoo Choi) - powercap RAPL (Running-Average Power Limit) driver update including support for Intel Broadwell server chips (Jacob Pan, Mathias Krause) - ACPI device enumeration update related to the handling of the special PRP0001 device ID allowing DT-style 'compatible' property to be used for ACPI device identification (Rafael J Wysocki) - ACPI EC driver update including limited _DEP support (Lan Tianyu, Lv Zheng) - ACPI backlight driver update including a new mechanism to allow native backlight handling to be forced on non-Windows 8 systems and a new quirk for Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (Aaron Lu, Hans de Goede) - New Windows Vista compatibility quirk for Sony VGN-SR19XN (Chen Yu) - Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Aaron Lu, Martin Kepplinger, Masanari Iida, Mika Westerberg, Nan Li, Rafael J Wysocki) - Fixes related to suspend-to-idle for the iTCO watchdog driver and the ACPI core system suspend/resume code (Rafael J Wysocki, Chen Yu) - PM tracing support for the suspend phase of system suspend/resume transitions (Zhonghui Fu) - Configurable delay for the system suspend/resume testing facility (Brian Norris) - PNP subsystem cleanups (Peter Huewe, Rafael J Wysocki)" * tag 'pm+acpi-4.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (74 commits) ACPI / scan: Fix NULL pointer dereference in acpi_companion_match() ACPI / scan: Rework modalias creation when "compatible" is present intel_idle: mark cpu id array as __initconst powercap / RAPL: mark rapl_ids array as __initconst powercap / RAPL: add ID for Broadwell server intel_pstate: Knights Landing support intel_pstate: remove MSR test cpufreq: fix qoriq uniprocessor build ACPI / scan: Take the PRP0001 position in the list of IDs into account ACPI / scan: Simplify acpi_match_device() ACPI / scan: Generalize of_compatible matching device property: Introduce firmware node type for platform data device property: Make it possible to use secondary firmware nodes PM / watchdog: iTCO: stop watchdog during system suspend cpufreq: hisilicon: add acpu driver ACPI / EC: Call acpi_walk_dep_device_list() after installing EC opregion handler cpufreq: powernv: Report cpu frequency throttling intel_idle: Add support for the Airmont Core in the Cherrytrail and Braswell SOCs intel_idle: Update support for Silvermont Core in Baytrail SOC PM / devfreq: tegra: Register governor on module init ...

device property: Make it possible to use secondary firmware nodes

2015-04-03T21:23:37Z

Add a secondary pointer to struct fwnode_handle so as to make it possible for a device to have two firmware nodes associated with it at the same time, for example, an ACPI node and a node with a set of properties provided by platform initialization code. In the future that will allow device property lookup to fall back from the primary firmware node to the secondary one if the given property is not present there to make it easier to provide defaults for device properties used by device drivers. Introduce two helper routines, set_primary_fwnode() and set_secondary_fwnode() allowing callers to add a primary/secondary firmware node to the given device in such a way that (1) If there's only one firmware node for that device, it will be pointed to by the device's firmware node pointer. (2) If both the primary and secondary firmware nodes are present, the primary one will be pointed to by the device's firmware node pointer, while the secondary one will be pointed to by the primary node's secondary pointer. (3) If one of these nodes is removed (by calling one of the new nelpers with NULL as the second argument), the other one will be preserved. Make ACPI use set_primary_fwnode() for attaching its firmware nodes to devices. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Tested-by: Heikki Krogerus Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers/core/of: Add symlink to device-tree from devices with an OF node

2015-03-25T13:56:58Z

So I've been annoyed lately with having a bunch of devices such as i2c eeproms (for use by VPDs, server world !) and other bits and pieces that I want to be able to identify from userspace, and possibly provide additional data about from FW. Basically, it boils down to correlating the sysfs device with the OF tree device node, so that user space can use device-tree info such as additional "location" or "label" (or whatever else we can come up with) propreties to identify a given device, or get some attributes of use about it, etc... Now, so far, we've done that in some subsystem in a fairly ad-hoc basis using "devspec" properties. For example, PCI creates them if it can correlate the probed device with a DT node. Some powerpc specific busses do that too. However, i2c doesn't and it would be nice to have something more generic since technically any device can have a corresponding device tree node. This patch adds an "of_node" symlink to devices that have a non-NULL dev->of_node pointer, the patch is pretty trivial and seems to work just fine for me.

driver core: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "put_device"

2015-03-25T12:52:35Z

The put_device() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. Signed-off-by: Markus Elfring Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

driver core: fix race with userland in device_add()

sysfs: driver core: Fix glue dir race condition by gdp_mutex

2014-11-07T16:17:43Z

There is a race condition when removing glue directory. It can be reproduced in following test: path 1: Add first child device device_add() get_device_parent() /*find parent from glue_dirs.list*/ list_for_each_entry(k, &dev->class->p->glue_dirs.list, entry) if (k->parent == parent_kobj) { kobj = kobject_get(k); break; } .... class_dir_create_and_add() path2: Remove last child device under glue dir device_del() cleanup_device_parent() cleanup_glue_dir() kobject_put(glue_dir); If path2 has been called cleanup_glue_dir(), but not call kobject_put(glue_dir), the glue dir is still in parent's kset list. Meanwhile, path1 find the glue dir from the glue_dirs.list. Path2 may release glue dir before path1 call kobject_get(). So kernel will report the warning and bug_on. This is a "classic" problem we have of a kref in a list that can be found while the last instance could be removed at the same time. This patch reuse gdp_mutex to fix this race condition. The following calltrace is captured in kernel 3.4, but the latest kernel still has this bug. ----------------------------------------------------- <4>[ 3965.441471] WARNING: at ...include/linux/kref.h:41 kobject_get+0x33/0x40() <4>[ 3965.441474] Hardware name: Romley <4>[ 3965.441475] Modules linked in: isd_iop(O) isd_xda(O)... ... <4>[ 3965.441605] Call Trace: <4>[ 3965.441611] [] warn_slowpath_common+0x7a/0xb0 <4>[ 3965.441615] [] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x20 <4>[ 3965.441618] [] kobject_get+0x33/0x40 <4>[ 3965.441624] [] get_device_parent.isra.11+0x135/0x1f0 <4>[ 3965.441627] [] device_add+0xd4/0x6d0 <4>[ 3965.441631] [] ? dev_set_name+0x3c/0x40 .... <2>[ 3965.441912] kernel BUG at ..../fs/sysfs/group.c:65! <4>[ 3965.441915] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP ... <4>[ 3965.686743] [] sysfs_create_group+0xe/0x10 <4>[ 3965.686748] [] blk_trace_init_sysfs+0x14/0x20 <4>[ 3965.686753] [] blk_register_queue+0x3b/0x120 <4>[ 3965.686756] [] add_disk+0x1cc/0x490 .... ------------------------------------------------------- Signed-off-by: Yijing Wang Signed-off-by: Weng Meiling Cc: #3.4+ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

driver core: Add BUS_NOTIFY_REMOVED_DEVICE event

2014-10-02T09:14:34Z

This event closes an important gap in the bus notifiers. There is already the BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE event, but that is sent when the device is still bound to its device driver. This is too early for the IOMMU code to destroy any mappings for the device, as they might still be in use by the driver. The new BUS_NOTIFY_REMOVED_DEVICE event introduced with this patch closes this gap as it is sent when the device is already unbound from its device driver and almost completly removed from the driver core. With this event the IOMMU code can safely destroy any mappings and other data structures when a device is removed. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Tested-by: Jerry Hoemann
