random: allow architectures to optionally define random_get_entropy()

2013-10-10T18:30:53Z

Allow architectures which have a disabled get_cycles() function to provide a random_get_entropy() function which provides a fine-grained, rapidly changing counter that can be used by the /dev/random driver. For example, an architecture might have a rapidly changing register used to control random TLB cache eviction, or DRAM refresh that doesn't meet the requirements of get_cycles(), but which is good enough for the needs of the random driver.

tpm: xen-tpmfront: fix missing declaration of xen_domain

xen-tpmfront fails to build on arm64 with the following error: drivers/char/tpm/xen-tpmfront.c: In function ‘xen_tpmfront_init’: drivers/char/tpm/xen-tpmfront.c:422:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘xen_domain’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] Add include of xen/xen.h to fix this.

tpm: xen-tpmfront: Remove the locality sysfs attribute

2013-09-24T20:15:15Z

Upon deeper review it was agreed to remove the driver-unique 'locality' sysfs attribute before it is present in a released kernel. The attribute was introduced in e2683957fb268c6b29316fd9e7191e13239a30a5 during the 3.12 merge window, so this patch needs to go in before 3.12 is released. The hope is to have a well defined locality API that all the other locality aware drivers can use, perhaps in 3.13.

tpm: xen-tpmfront: Fix default durations

2013-09-24T20:14:55Z

All the default durations were being set to 10 minutes which is way too long for the timeouts. Normal values for the longest duration are around 5 mins, and short duration ar around .5s. Further, these are just the default, tpm_get_timeouts will set them to values from the TPM (or throw an error). Just remove them.

random: run random_int_secret_init() run after all late_initcalls

2013-09-23T10:35:06Z

The some platforms (e.g., ARM) initializes their clocks as late_initcalls for some unknown reason. So make sure random_int_secret_init() is run after all of the late_initcalls are run. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"

Remove GENERIC_HARDIRQ config option

2013-09-13T13:09:52Z

After the last architecture switched to generic hard irqs the config options HAVE_GENERIC_HARDIRQS & GENERIC_HARDIRQS and the related code for !CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

tpm: convert tpm_tis driver to use dev_pm_ops from legacy pm_ops

2013-09-11T22:58:16Z

Convert drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis.c to use dev_pm_ops instead of legacy pm_ops. This patch depends on pnp driver bus ops change to invoke pnp_driver dev_pm_ops.
