This change adds a driver for the 16550-based Aspeed virtual UART
device. We use a similar process to the of_serial driver for device
probe, but expose some VUART-specific functions through sysfs too.
The VUART is two UART 'front ends' connected by their FIFO (no actual
serial line in between). One is on the BMC side (management controller)
and one is on the host CPU side.
This driver is for the BMC side. The sysfs files allow the BMC
userspace, which owns the system configuration policy, to specify at
what IO port and interrupt number the host side will appear to the host
on the Host <-> BMC LPC bus. It could be different on a different system
(though most of them use 3f8/4).
OpenPOWER host firmware doesn't like it when the host-side of the
VUART's FIFO is not drained. This driver only disables host TX discard
mode when the port is in use. We set the VUART enabled bit when we bind
to the device, and clear it on unbind.
We don't want to do this on open/release, as the host may be using this
bit to configure serial output modes, which is independent of whether
the devices has been opened by BMC userspace.

the documentation file:
"OrangeFS is an LGPL userspace scale-out parallel storage system. It
is ideal for large storage problems faced by HPC, BigData, Streaming
Video, Genomics, Bioinformatics.
Orangefs, originally called PVFS, was first developed in 1993 by Walt
Ligon and Eric Blumer as a parallel file system for Parallel Virtual
Machine (PVM) as part of a NASA grant to study the I/O patterns of
parallel programs.
Orangefs features include:
- Distributes file data among multiple file servers
- Supports simultaneous access by multiple clients
- Stores file data and metadata on servers using local file system
and access methods
- Userspace implementation is easy to install and maintain
- Direct MPI support
- Stateless"

So I've been annoyed lately with having a bunch of devices such as i2c
eeproms (for use by VPDs, server world !) and other bits and pieces that
I want to be able to identify from userspace, and possibly provide
additional data about from FW.
Basically, it boils down to correlating the sysfs device with the OF
tree device node, so that user space can use device-tree info such as
additional "location" or "label" (or whatever else we can come up with)
propreties to identify a given device, or get some attributes of use
about it, etc...
Now, so far, we've done that in some subsystem in a fairly ad-hoc basis
using "devspec" properties. For example, PCI creates them if it can
correlate the probed device with a DT node. Some powerpc specific busses
do that too.
However, i2c doesn't and it would be nice to have something more generic
since technically any device can have a corresponding device tree node.
This patch adds an "of_node" symlink to devices that have a non-NULL
dev->of_node pointer, the patch is pretty trivial and seems to work just
fine for me.

Added own device class for TPM. Uses MISC_MAJOR:TPM_MINOR for the
first character device in order to retain backwards compatibility.
Added tpm_dev_release() back attached to the character device.
I've been running this code now for a while on my laptop (Lenovo
T430S) TrouSerS works perfectly without modifications. I don't
believe it breaks anything significantly.
The sysfs attributes that have been placed under the wrong place
and are against sysfs-rules.txt should be probably left to
stagnate under platform device directory and start defining
new sysfs attributes to the char device directory.
Guidelines for future TPM sysfs attributes should be probably
along the lines of
- Single flat set of mandatory sysfs attributes. For example,
current PPI interface is way way too rich when you only want
to use it to clear and activate the TPM.
- Define sysfs attribute if and only if there's no way to get
the value from ring-3. No attributes for TPM properties. It's
just unnecessary maintenance hurdle that we don't want.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time we have some more new material than we used to have during
the last couple of development cycles.
The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified
interface for accessing device properties provided by platform
firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and
drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from
as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them
available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects
without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary
in some cases. This has been in the works for quite a few months (and
development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant
maintainers.
On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface
(at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are
made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate
GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO
information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines
(in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it
knows about the device in question). That also has been approved by
the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use
it.
Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver.
It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the
processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However, it
can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary.
Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI
operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated
Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms.
That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for
thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting
and so on.
Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration
information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect
off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very
indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an
operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the
device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller). The
support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver
work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some
other use cases in the future.
Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor.
In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the
place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream
release.
As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for
Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA
engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the
thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should
handle some more corner cases, among other things.
On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the
ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and
strange looking failures on some systems.
In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of
commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration
option. That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic
power domains code during which we realized that trying to support
certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really
worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway. For
this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select
CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter
became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it. The
material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but
there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of
the merge window.
Specifics:
- Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD
device configuration objects and a unified device properties
interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that. As
stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows
device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI)
agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are
now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is
additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to
GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not
present or does not provide the expected data). The changes in
this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron
Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam,
Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described
in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate
driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is
supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled
automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in
the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie.
- New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie).
- Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used

- Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies
between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and
deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the
_DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan

- ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions
management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been
allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs
queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics
driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that
code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go
away. From Konstantin Khlebnikov.
- ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power
management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly. The
problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support of its
own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device having
ACPI PM support goes into D3cold. To work around that, the PM
domain used by the ACPI LPSS driver is redesigned so at least one
device with ACPI PM support will be on as long as the DMA engine is
in use. From Andy Shevchenko.
- ACPI backlight driver fix to avoid using it on "Win8-compatible"
systems where it doesn't work and where it was used by default by
mistake (Aaron Lu).
- Assorted minor ACPI core fixes and cleanups from Tomasz Nowicki,
Sudeep Holla, Huang Rui, Hanjun Guo, Fabian Frederick, and Ashwin

- Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) power capping driver fixes
and improvements including new processor IDs (Jacob Pan).
- Generic power domains modification to power up domains after
attaching devices to them to meet the expectations of device
drivers and bus types assuming devices to be accessible at probe
time (Ulf Hansson).

Improve performance by using multiple RDMA/RC channels per SCSI
host for communication with an SRP target. About the
implementation:
- Introduce a loop over all channels in the code that uses
target->ch.
- Set the SRP_MULTICHAN_MULTI flag during login for the creation
of the second and subsequent channels.
- RDMA completion vectors are chosen such that RDMA completion
interrupts are handled by the CPU socket that submitted the I/O
request. As one can see in this patch it has been assumed if a
system contains n CPU sockets and m RDMA completion vectors
have been assigned to an RDMA HCA that IRQ affinity has been
configured such that completion vectors [i*m/n..(i+1)*m/n) are
bound to CPU socket i with 0 <= i < n.
- Modify srp_free_ch_ib() and srp_free_req_data() such that it
becomes safe to invoke these functions after the corresponding
allocation function failed.
- Add a ch_count sysfs attribute per target port.

The deprecation warnings for the scan_unevictable interface triggers by
scripts doing `sysctl -a | grep something else'. This is annoying and not
helpful.
The interface has been defunct since 264e56d8247e ("mm: disable user
interface to manually rescue unevictable pages"), which was in 2011, and
there haven't been any reports of usecases for it, only reports that the
deprecation warnings are annying. It's unlikely that anybody is using
this interface specifically at this point, so remove it.

There's no power/persist file for hubs. And CONFIG_USB_PERSIST was
removed in v2.6.26. Update the description of power/persist accordingly.
Also remove the line on its default value. It is not entirely correct, as
CONFIG_USB_DEFAULT_PERSIST and the USB_QUIRK_RESET flag influence the
default. It is not needed to understand this file anyhow.

This enables support for userspace to fetch and initiate FSP and
Platform dumps from the service processor (via firmware) through sysfs.
Based on original patch from Vasant Hegde <hegdevasant@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Flow:
- We register for OPAL notification events.
- OPAL sends new dump available notification.
- We make information on dump available via sysfs
- Userspace requests dump contents
- We retrieve the dump via OPAL interface
- User copies the dump data
- userspace sends ack for dump
- We send ACK to OPAL.
sysfs files:
- We add the /sys/firmware/opal/dump directory
- echoing 1 (well, anything, but in future we may support
different dump types) to /sys/firmware/opal/dump/initiate_dump
will initiate a dump.
- Each dump that we've been notified of gets a directory
in /sys/firmware/opal/dump/ with a name of the dump type and ID (in hex,
as this is what's used elsewhere to identify the dump).
- Each dump has files: id, type, dump and acknowledge
dump is binary and is the dump itself.
echoing 'ack' to acknowledge (currently any string will do) will
acknowledge the dump and it will soon after disappear from sysfs.
OPAL APIs:
- opal_dump_init()
- opal_dump_info()
- opal_dump_read()
- opal_dump_ack()
- opal_dump_resend_notification()
Currently we are only ever notified for one dump at a time (until
the user explicitly acks the current dump, then we get a notification
of the next dump), but this kernel code should "just work" when OPAL
starts notifying us of all the dumps present.

Based on a patch by: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
This patch adds support to read error logs from OPAL and export
them to userspace through a sysfs interface.
We export each log entry as a directory in /sys/firmware/opal/elog/
Currently, OPAL will buffer up to 128 error log records, we don't
need to have any knowledge of this limit on the Linux side as that
is actually largely transparent to us.
Each error log entry has the following files: id, type, acknowledge, raw.
Currently we just export the raw binary error log in the 'raw' attribute.
In a future patch, we may parse more of the error log to make it a bit
easier for userspace (e.g. to be able to display a brief summary in
petitboot without having to have a full parser).
If we have >128 logs from OPAL, we'll only be notified of 128 until
userspace starts acknowledging them. This limitation may be lifted in
the future and with this patch, that should "just work" from the linux side.
A userspace daemon should:
- wait for error log entries using normal mechanisms (we announce creation)
- read error log entry
- save error log entry safely to disk
- acknowledge the error log entry
- rinse, repeat.
On the Linux side, we read the error log when we're notified of it. This
possibly isn't ideal as it would be better to only read them on-demand.
However, this doesn't really work with current OPAL interface, so we
read the error log immediately when notified at the moment.
I've tested this pretty extensively and am rather confident that the
linux side of things works rather well. There is currently an issue with
the service processor side of things for >128 error logs though.
