      Implement memory accessor interface in the MTD layer which enables the · 7e3fac90
      Sudhakar Rajashekhara authored
      kernel to access flash data.
      
      This patch adds two new members to the mtd_partition structure, a function
      handler which will be called during setup of the partition and an argument
      to be passed to this setup function.
      
      Example:
      +static struct mtd_partition spi_flash_partitions[] = {
      +       [0] = {
      +               .name       = "U-Boot",
      +               .offset     = 0,
      +               .size       = SZ_256K,
      +               .mask_flags = MTD_WRITEABLE,
      +       },
      +       [1] = {
      +               .name       = "U-Boot Environment",
      +               .offset     = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK,
      +               .size       = SZ_64K,
      +               .mask_flags = MTD_WRITEABLE,
      +       },
      +       [2] = {
      +               .name       = "Linux",
      +               .offset     = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK,
      +               .size       = SZ_7M,
      +               .mask_flags = 0,
      +       },
      +       [3] = {
      +               .name       = "MAC Address",
      +               .offset     = MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK,
      +               .size       = SZ_64K,
      +               .mask_flags = 0,
      +               .setup      = davinci_get_mac_addr,
      +               .context    = (void *)0,
      +       },
      +};
      
      The davinci_get_mac_addr function reads the MAC address from
      offset ZERO of last MTD partition.

      This adds CROSS_COMPILE as a kconfig string so you can store it in · 49dd91f6
      Roland McGrath authored
      .config.  Then you can use plain "make" in the configured kernel build
      directory to do the right cross compilation without setting the
      command-line or environment variable every time.
      
      With this, you can set up different build directories for different kernel
      configurations, whether native or cross-builds, and then use the simple:
      
      	make -C /build/dir M=module-source-dir
      
      idiom to build modules for any given target kernel, indicating which one
      by nothing but the build directory chosen.
      
      I tried a version that defaults the string with env="CROSS_COMPILE" so
      that in a "make oldconfig" with CROSS_COMPILE in the environment you can
      just hit return to store the way you're building it.  But the kconfig
      prompt for strings doesn't give you any way to say you want an empty
      string instead of the default, so I punted that.

      With the recent system-wide improvements on suspend/resume and EFI booting · 300837ee
      Henrik Rydberg authored
      the suspend_resume method of the bcm5974 has broken.  When waking up from
      the S3 state on the MacBookAir, the trackpad is found in a yet unknown
      state, unable to switch to the proper multitouch mode.  The result is a
      frozen touchpad, and a flood of errors of the kind
      
      bcm5974: bad trackpad package, length: 8.
      
      This patch retracts the reset_resume method altogether, falling back on
      the generic unbind/rebind functionality of the usb layer until further
      investigations can be made as how to reset the device when booting from
      efi.

      In quickcam_messenger.c, if the NULL test on uvd is needed, then the · 0a6690a3

      dereference should be after the NULL test.
      
      In vpif_display.c, std_info is initialized to the address of a structure
      field.  This seems unlikely to be NULL.  If it could somehow be NULL, then
      the assignment should be moved after the NULL test.  Alternatively, perhaps
      the NULL test is intended to test std_info->stdid rather than std_info?
      
      In saa7134-alsa.c, the function is only called from one place, where the
      chip argument has already been dereferenced.  On the other hand, if it
      should be kept, then card should be initialized after it.
      
      A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as
      follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):
      
      // <smpl>
      @match exists@
      expression x, E;
      identifier fld;
      @@
      
      * x->fld
        ... when != \(x = E\|&x\)
      * x == NULL

      The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages · 92c311b9
      Robert Jennings authored
      over time that are not migratable.  On a long running system this can
      severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug
      memory remove operation.
      
      This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier.
      The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in
      the range specified.  This is used to determine if all of the used pages
      in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier
      chain).  The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be
      removed.  The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be
      called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations
      that fail due to other handlers.
      
      CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and
      resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to
      adjust.

      Memory balloon drivers can allocate a large amount of memory which is not · 3a2c66c2
      Robert Jennings authored
      movable but could be freed to accomodate memory hotplug remove.
      
      Prior to calling the memory hotplug notifier chain the memory in the
      pageblock is isolated.  Currently, if the migrate type is not
      MIGRATE_MOVABLE the isolation will not proceed, causing the memory removal
      for that page range to fail.
      
      Rather than failing pageblock isolation if the migrateteype is not
      MIGRATE_MOVABLE, this patch checks if all of the pages in the pageblock,
      and not on the LRU, are owned by a registered balloon driver (or other
      entity) using a notifier chain.  If all of the non-movable pages are owned
      by a balloon, they can be freed later through the memory notifier chain
      and the range can still be isolated in set_migratetype_isolate().
