83c79b55f0 sysfs-rules.txt: reword API stability statement
The first paragraph of this document implies that user space developers
shouldn't use sysfs at all, but then it goes on to describe rules that
developers should follow when accessing sysfs.  Not only is this somewhat
self-contradictory, it has been shown to discourage developers from using
established sysfs interfaces.

A note of caution is more appropriate than a blanket "sysfs will never
be stable" assertion.

4f7e53096c uio-howto.tmpl: use unique output names
The Userspace I/O HOWTO template sets two different sections with the same
html output name (about.html).  This clearly won't work, so change the
first one to a unique "aboutthis.html" to prevent clobbering.

to describe copyright/legal information.  It should instead use the

328a14e70e UIO: Add write function to allow irq masking
Sometimes it is necessary to enable/disable the interrupt of a UIO device
from the userspace part of the driver. With this patch, the UIO kernel driver
can implement an "irqcontrol()" function that does this. Userspace can write
an s32 value to /dev/uioX (usually 0 or 1 to turn the irq off or on). The
UIO core will then call the driver's irqcontrol function.

e105b8bfc7 sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minor
Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path.  For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK?  With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.

What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
   the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
   seems counter productive.

2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
   udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
   environment like an initramfs.

3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

86c57edf60 USB: use reset_resume when normal resume fails
This patch (as1109b) makes USB-Persist more resilient to errors.  With
the current code, if a normal resume fails, it's an unrecoverable
error.  With the patch, if a normal resume fails (and if the device is
enabled for USB-Persist) then a reset-resume is tried.

This fixes the problem reported in Bugzilla #10977.

4d5a73dc39 usb gadget serial: split out CDC ACM function
Split out CDC ACM parts of "gadget serial" to a "function driver".
Some key structural differences from the previous ACM support, shared
with with the generic serial function (next patch):

 - As a function driver, it can be combined with other functions.
   One gadget configuration could offer both serial and network
   links, as an example.

 - One serial port can be exposed in multiple configurations;
   the /dev/ttyGS0 node could be exposed regardless of which
   config the host selected.

 - One configuration can expose multiple serial ports, such as
   ttyGS0, ttyGS1, ttyGS2, and ttyGS3.

This code should be a lot easier to understand than the previous
all-in-one-big-file version of the driver.

40982be52d usb gadget: composite gadget core
Add <linux/usb/composite.h> interfaces for composite gadget drivers, and
basic implementation support behind it:

  - struct usb_function ... groups one or more interfaces into a function
    managed as one unit within a configuration, to which it's added by
    usb_add_function().

  - struct usb_configuration ... groups one or more such functions into
    a configuration managed as one unit by a driver, to which it's added
    by usb_add_config().  These operate at either high or full/low speeds
    and at a given bMaxPower.

  - struct usb_composite_driver ... groups one or more such configurations
    into a gadget driver, which may be registered or unregistered.

  - struct usb_composite_dev ... a usb_composite_driver manages this; it
    wraps the usb_gadget exposed by the controller driver.

This also includes some basic kerneldoc.

How to use it (the short version):  provide a usb_composite_driver with a
bind() that calls usb_add_config() for each of the needed configurations.
The configurations in turn have bind() calls, which will usb_add_function()
for each function required.  Each function's bind() allocates resources
needed to perform its tasks, like endpoints; sometimes configurations will
allocate resources too.

Separate patches will convert most gadget drivers to this infrastructure.

a7707adf9e usb gadget: use new serial core
Teach "gadget serial" to use the new abstracted (and bugfixed) TTY glue,
and remove all the orignal tangled-up code.  Update the documentation
accordingly.  This is a net object code shrink and cleanup; it should
make it a lot easier to see how the TTY glue should accomodate updates
to the TTY layer, be bugfixed, etc.

Notable behavior changes include:  it can now support getty even when
there's no USB connection; it fits properly into the mdev/udev world;
and RX handling is better (throttling works, and low latency).

Configurations with scripts setting up the /dev/ttygserial device node
(with "experimental" major number) may want to change that to be a
symlink pointing to the /dev/ttyGS0 file, as a migration aid; else,
just switch entirely over to mdev/udev.

584015727a netfilter: accounting rework: ct_extend + 64bit counters (v4)
Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but
it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are
still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters
waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime.

This patch:
 - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure,
 - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(),
 - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n),
 - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs,
 - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit,
 - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter,
 - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT),
 - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT
 - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling.

If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend.
Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area
to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with
acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

d7027458d6 md: Tidy up rdev_size_store a bit:
- used strict_strtoull in place of simple_strtoull
 - use my_mddev in place of rdev->mddev (they have the same value)
and more significantly,
 - don't adjust mddev->size to fit, rather reject changes which make
   rdev->size smaller than mddev->size

Adjusting mddev->size is a hangover from bind_rdev_to_array which
does a similar thing.  But it really is a better design to insist that
mddev->size is set as required, then the rdev->sizes are set to allow
for that.  The previous way invites confusion.

6bb0e3a59a Subject: [PATCH 1/2] serial: Add flush_buffer() operation to uart_ops
Serial drivers using DMA (like the atmel_serial driver) tend to get very
confused when the xmit buffer is flushed and nobody told them.  They
also tend to spew a lot of garbage since the DMA engine keeps running
after the buffer is flushed and possibly refilled with unrelated data.

This patch adds a new flush_buffer operation to the uart_ops struct,
along with a call to it from uart_flush_buffer() right after the xmit
buffer has been cleared. The driver can implement this in order to
syncronize its internal DMA state with the xmit buffer when the buffer
is flushed.

a6795e9ebb configfs: Allow ->make_item() and ->make_group() to return detailed errors.
The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group.  A return of NULL signifies an error.  Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.

Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail.  This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return ERR_PTR() values.  These errors are
bubbled up appropriately.  NULL returns are changed to -ENOMEM for
compatibility.

Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

This is a rework of reverted commit 11c3b79218.
