DM355/DM365/DM6467 and DA8xx). Mostly the same as the patch by Sandeep Paulraj. This has been tested on the DM6446 by defining a spidev device and using a scope (to check correctness) and a hardware loopback. This was NOT tested on DM355, DM365 and DM6467 - in fact, it will probably not work "as is" because its default mode is CS low-inactive (default mode of SPI in kernel) - need to set CS_HIGH mode to work as in the previous patch. Changes from the patch by Sandeep Paulraj: Bug fixes: * Additional word written with chip select up after each transfer. Particulary problematic with NO_CS mode where this word can't be distiguished from correct words. Problem was in davinci_chip_select. * setup() for one chip select may interfere with transfer for another * Small nitpicks (bits that can be changed only on VERSION_2) Features added: * Support DM6446 * Support CS_HIGH mode (using SPIDEF register). Note that CS low is default. Other: * Less accesses to registers used. * Once-per-device configuration is done only in probe(), not each transfer. Uglyness still there: * VERSION_X definitions for different SPI controllers - added VERSION_3 for the dm6446, which is ugly. NOTE: This patch is based on following patches: SPI: DaVinci: Adding SPI driver for DM3xx/DM6467/DA8xx The patch adds support for SPI in DaVinci DM355/DM365/DM6467 and DA8xx. This has been tested on the DM355, DM365 and DM6467 EVMs using the EEPROM connected to SPI0 Signed-off-by: Sandeep Paulraj <s-paulraj@ti.com> DaVinci: DM646x: Adding Support for SPI The patch does the following 1) Adds a clock for SPI 2) Defines resources specific to DM646x SOC Signed-off-by: Sandeep Paulraj <s-paulraj@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Bitton <pablo.bitton@gmail.com> Cc: Signed-off-by: Sandeep Paulraj <s-paulraj@ti.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: David Brownell <david-b@pacbell.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

being called more often, and thus is often re-doing calculations that have been done before. The SPI layer allows our driver to add its own data to each device so add a result cache to each device. This should also remove the problem where we where directly setting up registers in the setup call which meant we might overwrite the state of an extant transfer., Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben@simtec.co.uk> Cc: David Brownell <david-b@pacbell.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

Also, now jedec_probe() only does jedec probing, nothing else. If it is not able to detect a chip, NULL is returned and the driver fall backs to the information specified by the platform (platform_data, or exact ID).

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() mechanisms to bind against the devices. Just like we do with I2C drivers. This is useful when a single driver supports several variants of devices but it is not possible to detect them in run-time (like non-JEDEC chips probing in drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c), and when platform_data usage is overkill. This patch also makes life a lot easier on OpenFirmware platforms, since with OF we extensively use proper device IDs in modaliases.

whether the direction of transfer is from the device or to the device. The logic around this is somewhat weird in the case of bidirectional transfers. It appears to want to throw both in succession, but since its a panic only the first makes it. This patch adds a third, separate error for DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL to make things a bit clearer.

In usual, - range of physical memory - range of vmalloc area - text, etc... are registered but "range of physical memory" has some troubles. It doesn't updated at memory hotplug and it tend to include unnecessary memory holes. Now, /proc/iomem (kernel/resource.c) includes required physical memory range information and it's properly updated at memory hotplug. Then, it's good to avoid using its own code(duplicating information) and to rebuild kclist for physical memory based on /proc/iomem.

of "System RAM" for detecting memory hotplug/unplug range. For doing so, flags of IORESOUCE_MEM|IORESOURCE_BUSY was used and this was enough for memory hotplug. But for using other purpose, /proc/kcore, this may includes some firmware area marked as IORESOURCE_BUSY | IORESOUCE_MEM. This patch makes the check strict to find out busy "System RAM". Note: PPC64 keeps their own walk_memory_resouce(), which walk through ppc64's lmb informaton. Because old kclist_add() is called per lmb, this patch makes no difference in behavior, finally. And this patch removes CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG check from this function. Because pfn_valid() just show "there is memmap or not* and cannot be used for "there is physical memory or not", this function is useful in generic to scan physical memory range.

entried to /proc/kcore in addtion to direct-linear-map, vmalloc area. This patch unifies KCORE_TEXT entry scattered under x86 and ia64. I'm not familiar with other archs (mips has its own even after this patch) but range of [_stext ..._end) is a valid area of text and it's not in direct-map area, defining CONFIG_ARCH_PROC_KCORE_TEXT is only a necessary thing to do.

- many per-arch hooks are removed. - /proc/kcore will know really valid physical memory area. - /proc/kcore will be aware of memory hotplug. - /proc/kcore will be architecture independent i.e. if an arch supports CONFIG_MMU, it can use /proc/kcore. (if the arch uses usual memory layout.) This patch: /proc/kcore uses its own list handling codes. It's better to use generic list codes. No changes in logic. just clean up.

especially for embedded linux. Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads. There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack. This is a value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage. A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like: 08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z 08049000-0804a000 rw-p 00001000 03:00 8312 /opt/z 0804a000-0806b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] a7d12000-a7d13000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 a7d13000-a7f13000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [thread stack: 001ff4b4] a7f13000-a7f14000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 a7f14000-a7f36000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 a7f36000-a8069000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 4222 /lib/libc.so.6 a8069000-a806b000 r--p 00133000 03:00 4222 /lib/libc.so.6 a806b000-a806c000 rw-p 00135000 03:00 4222 /lib/libc.so.6 a806c000-a806f000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 a806f000-a8083000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 14462 /lib/libpthread.so.0 a8083000-a8084000 r--p 00013000 03:00 14462 /lib/libpthread.so.0 a8084000-a8085000 rw-p 00014000 03:00 14462 /lib/libpthread.so.0 a8085000-a8088000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 a8088000-a80a4000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8317 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 a80a4000-a80a5000 r--p 0001b000 03:00 8317 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 a80a5000-a80a6000 rw-p 0001c000 03:00 8317 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 afaf5000-afb0a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status which will you give the current stack usage in kb. A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like: Name: cat State: R (running) Tgid: 507 Pid: 507 . . . CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0 nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0 Stack usage: 12 kB I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main process. This makes more sense.

much: ps and friends mostly use /proc/tid/task/pid. Remove "if (thread_group_leader())" checks from proc_flush_task() path, this means we always remove /proc/tid/task/pid dentry on exit, and this actually matches the comment above proc_flush_task(). The test-case: static void* tfunc(void *arg) { char name[256]; sprintf(name, "/proc/%d/task/%ld/status", getpid(), gettid()); close(open(name, O_RDONLY)); return NULL; } int main(void) { pthread_t t; for (;;) { if (!pthread_create(&t, NULL, &tfunc, NULL)) pthread_join(t, NULL); } } slabtop shows that pid/proc_inode_cache/etc grow quickly and "indefinitely" until the task is killed or shrink_slab() is called, not good. And the main thread needs a lot of time to exit. The same can happen if something like "ps -efL" runs continuously, while some application spawns short-living threads. Reported-by: "James M.
