goldfish: refactor goldfish platform configs

2016-01-29T07:34:36Z

On new virtual devices, the goldfish virtual bus can be replaced with autoprobing infrastructure like Device Tree. Refactor the goldfish kernel configs to better accommodate this. Move the goldfish platform into a menuconfig in the style of the chrome platform, and separate the goldfish bus into its own config option.

platform: add chrome platform directory

2013-11-20T23:51:03Z

It makes sense to split out the Chromebook/Chromebox hardware platform drivers to a separate subdirectory, since some of it will be shared between ARM and x86. This moves over the existing chromeos_laptop driver without making any other changes, and adds appropriate Kconfig entries for the new directory. It also adds a MAINTAINERS entry for the new subdir.

goldfish: add QEMU pipe driver

2013-01-24T21:49:34Z

A QEMU pipe is a very fast communication channel between the guest system and the emulator. Usage from the guest is simply something like; // connect to special device fd = open("/dev/qemu_pipe", O_RDWR); // tell which service we want to talk to (must be zero-terminated) write(fd, "pipeName", strlen("pipeName")+1); // do read()/write() through fd now ... // close channel close(fd); Signed-off-by: David 'Digit' Turner [Added support for parameter buffers for speed] igned-off-by: Xin, Xiaohui Signed-off-by: Jiang, Yunhong Signed-off-by: Nakajima, Jun [Ported to 3.6] Signed-off-by: Tom Keel [Ported to 3.7, moved to platform/goldfish] Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

create drivers/platform/x86/ from drivers/misc/

2008-12-19T09:42:32Z

Move x86 platform specific drivers from drivers/misc/ to a new home under drivers/platform/x86/. The community has been maintaining x86 vendor-specific platform specific drivers under /drivers/misc/ for a few years. The oldest ones started life under drivers/acpi. They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually implement the ACPI specification, but either simply use ACPI, or implement vendor-specific ACPI extensions. In the future we anticipate... drivers/misc/ will go away. other architectures will create drivers/platform/ Signed-off-by: Len Brown
