* vt/vgacon: Check if screen resize request comes from userspaceAntonino A. Daplas2007-10-162-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various console drivers are able to resize the screen via the con_resize() hook. This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and VT_RESIZEX ioctl's. One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that con_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the resulting screen is not compatible with the hardware. However, this particular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug 7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size larger than 80x25. To work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize(). This parameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon. If this parameter is non-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl and vgacon will always return success. If this parameter is zero, vgacon will return -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware. The latter is the more correct behavior. With this change, SVGATextMode should still work correctly while in-kernel and stty resize calls can expect correct behavior from vgacon.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for the other three palette formats possible with the PXA LCD controller. This is required on boards where an LCD is connected with all its 18 bits. With this patch, it's possible to use an 8-bit mode with 18-bit palette entries. This used to be possible in 2.4 kernels but disappeared in 2.6. With current kernels, you can only get wrong colours out of an LCD connected this way. Users can choose the palette format by doing something like this in their board definition: static struct pxafb_mach_info my_fb_info = { [...] .lccr3 = LCCR3_OutEnH | LCCR3_PixFlEdg | LCCR3_PDFOR_3, .lccr4 = LCCR4_PAL_FOR_2, [...] }; Signed-off-by: Hans J.

* uvesafb: the driver coreMichal Januszewski2007-10-162-1/+194
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | uvesafb is an enhanced version of vesafb. It uses a userspace helper (v86d) to execute calls to the x86 Video BIOS functions. The driver is not limited to any specific arch and whether it works on a given arch or not depends on that arch being supported by the userspace daemon. It has been tested on x86_32 and x86_64. A single BIOS call is represented by an instance of the uvesafb_ktask structure. This structure contains a buffer, a completion struct and a uvesafb_task substructure, containing the values of the x86 registers, a flags field and a field indicating the length of the buffer. Whenever a BIOS call is made in the driver, uvesafb_exec() builds a message using the uvesafb_task substructure and the contents of the buffer. This message is then assigned a random ack number and sent to the userspace daemon using the connector interface. The message's sequence number is used as an index for the uvfb_tasks array, which provides a mapping from the messages coming from userspace to the in-kernel uvesafb_ktask structs. The userspace daemon performs the requested operation and sends a reply in the form of a uvesafb_task struct and, optionally, a buffer. The seq and ack numbers in the reply should be exactly the same as those in the request. Each message from userspace is processed by uvesafb_cn_callback() and after passing a few sanity checks leads to the completion of a BIOS call request.

* cpuset: remove sched domain hooks from cpusetsPaul Jackson2007-10-161-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the cpuset hooks that defined sched domains depending on the setting of the 'cpu_exclusive' flag. The cpu_exclusive flag can only be set on a child if it is set on the parent. This made that flag painfully unsuitable for use as a flag defining a partitioning of a system. It was entirely unobvious to a cpuset user what partitioning of sched domains they would be causing when they set that one cpu_exclusive bit on one cpuset, because it depended on what CPUs were in the remainder of that cpusets siblings and child cpusets, after subtracting out other cpu_exclusive cpusets. Furthermore, there was no way on production systems to query the result. Using the cpu_exclusive flag for this was simply wrong from the get go. Fortunately, it was sufficiently borked that so far as I know, almost no successful use has been made of this. One real time group did use it to affectively isolate CPUs from any load balancing efforts. They are willing to adapt to alternative mechanisms for this, such as someway to manipulate the list of isolated CPUs on a running system. They can do without this present cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative. There is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users accidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired load balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the cpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag. Furthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was doing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code. Unless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they will be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel's behaviour. Initial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment. My (probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a rough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for defining sched domains is borked. There is no concensus on the replacement. But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its continued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers load balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the replacement scheduler domain mechanisms.

* DCA: Add Direct Cache Access driverShannon Nelson2007-10-161-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses. This patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA services with devices that offer DCA services. In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU. However, different CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a hardware specific magic incantation. This interface is a way for DCA clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing to know the specifics.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Handle floating point state better in ptrace. The code now correctly distinguishes between PTRACE_[GS]ETFPREGS and PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS. The FPX requests get handed off to arch-specific code because that's not generic. get_fpregs, set_fpregs, set_fpregs, and set_fpxregs needed real implementations. Something here exposed a missing include in asm/page.h, which needed linux/types.h in order to get gfp_t, so that's fixed here.

This was bad enough, but it became pt_regs.regs.regs.regs[FOO] with the removal of the union from the middle. To get rid of the run of three "regs", the last field is renamed to "gp".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | do_longjmp used to be needed when UML didn't have its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp. They came from libc, and couldn't be called directly from kernel code, as the libc jmp_buf couldn't be imported there. do_longjmp was a userspace function which served to provide longjmp access to kernel code. This is gone, and a number of void * pointers can now be jmp_buf *.
