ab4382d274 tty: move drivers/serial/ to drivers/tty/serial/
The serial drivers are really just tty drivers, so move them to
drivers/tty/ to make things a bit neater overall.

This is part of the tty/serial driver movement proceedure as proposed by
Arnd Bergmann and approved by everyone involved a number of months ago.

66fa12c571 ieee1394: remove the old IEEE 1394 driver stack
The drivers
  - ohci1394 (controller driver)
  - ieee1394 (core)
  - dv1394, raw1394, video1394 (userspace ABI)
  - eth1394, sbp2 (protocol drivers)
are replaced by
  - firewire-ohci (controller driver)
  - firewire-core (core and userspace ABI)
  - firewire-net, firewire-sbp2 (protocol drivers)
which are more featureful, better performing, and more secure than the older
drivers; all with a smaller and more modern code base.

The driver firedtv in drivers/media/dvb/firewire/ contains backends to both
ieee1394 and firewire-core.  Its ieee1394 backend code can be removed in an
independent commit; firedtv as-is builds and works fine without ieee1394.

The driver pcilynx (an incomplete controller driver) is deleted without
replacement since PCILynx cards are extremely rare.  Owners of these cards
use them with the stand-alone bus sniffer driver nosy instead.

The drivers nosy and init_ohci1394_dma which do not interact with either of
the two IEEE 1394 stacks are not affected by the ieee1394 subsystem removal.

There are still some issues with the newer firewire subsystem compared to
the older one:
  - The rare and quirky controllers ALi M52xx, Apple UniNorth v1, NVIDIA
    NForce2 are even less well supported by firewire-ohci than by ohci1394.
    I am looking into the M52xx issue.
  - The experimental firewire-net is reportedly less stable than its
    experimental cousin eth1394.
  - Audio playback of a certain group of audio devices (ones based on DICE
    chipset with EAP; supported by prerelease FFADO code) does not work yet.
    This issue is still under investigation.
  - There were some ieee1394 based out-of-the-mainline drivers.  Of them,
    only lisight, an audio driver for iSight webcams, seems still useful.
    Work is underway to reimplement it on top of firewire-core.

All these remainig issues are minor; they should not stand in the way of
overall better user experience of IEEE 1394 on Linux, together with a
reduction in support efforts and maintenance burden.  The coexistence of two
IEEE 1394 kernel driver stacks in the mainline since 2.6.22 shall end now,
as announced earlier this year.

8702d33aa6 firewire: nosy: fix build when CONFIG_FIREWIRE=N
drivers/firewire/nosy* is a stand-alone driver that does not depend on
CONFIG_FIREWIRE.  Hence let make descend into drivers/firewire/ also
if that option is off.

The stand-alone driver drivers/ieee1394/init_ohci1394_dma*  will soon be
moved into drivers/firewire/ too and will require the same makefile fix.

Side effect:
As mentioned in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586172#c24
this influences the order in which either firewire-ohci or ohci1394 is
going to be bound to an OHCI-1394 controller in case of a modular build
of both drivers if no modprobe blacklist entries are configured.
However, a user of such a setup cannot expect deterministic behavior
anyway.  The Kconfig help and the migration guide at
ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org recommend blacklist entries when a dual
IEEE 1394 stack build is being used.  (The coexistence period of the two
stacks is planned to end soon.)

2671717265 intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors
This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
and associated Intel Xeon processors.

It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.

For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".

Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.

intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
to using C1 in idle.

3a4d5c94e9 vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server
What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
  migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)

common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear.  I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.

What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.

How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device.  Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.

Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.

Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use

Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item.  The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

eae9d2ba0c LinuxPPS: core support
This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".

PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.

Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.

To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch.  It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal.  The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.

a357482a1e V4L/DVB (11561a): move media after i2c
Currently drivers/media drivers are linked very early - directly after
base, block, misc, and mfd and before ata, scsi, ide, input, firewire,
usb, and i2c. This breaks static build of video4linux drivers, that use
generic CPU i2c adapter drivers and the v4l2-subdev subsystem, because
during video4linux probing the v4l2-subdev core requires a struct
i2c_adapter context, which cannot be satisfied before the i2c subsystem is
initialised. Moving drivers/media after drivers/i2c fixes this problem.

The best way to trigger action is by submitting a patch:-) So, let's see
what comes out of it - on the one hand I don't see any reason why media
has to be linked this early, and nobody was able to give me one yesterday
as this problem has been discussed on linux-media, OTOH, maybe indeed it
would be better to move i2c the whole way up above media, but that'd be
much bigger of a change, I think.

0c406263f0 ide/net: flip the order of SATA and network init
this patch flips the order in which sata and network drivers are initialized.

SATA probing takes quite a bit of time, and with the asynchronous infrastructure
other drivers that run after it can execute in parallel. Network drivers do tend
to take some real time talking to the hardware, so running these later is
a good thing (the sata probe then runs concurrent)

This saves about 15% of my kernels boot time.

Both Dave and Jeff acked this patch and suggested it should go via the async
tree.

They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually

7444a72eff gpiolib: allow user-selection
This patch adds functionality to the gpio-lib subsystem to make it
possible to enable the gpio-lib code even if the architecture code didn't
request to get it built in.

The archtitecture code does still need to implement the gpiolib accessor
functions in its asm/gpio.h file.  This patch adds the implementations for
x86 and PPC.

With these changes it is possible to run generic GPIO expansion cards on
every architecture that implements the trivial wrapper functions.  Support
for more architectures can easily be added.

c0e09200dc drm: reorganise drm tree to be more future proof.
With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.

This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.

It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.

a9c5fff542 gpiolib: add drivers/gpio directory
Add an empty drivers/gpio directory for gpiolib infrastructure and GPIO
expanders.  It will be populated by later patches.

This won't be the only place to hold such gpio_chip code.  Many external chips
add a few GPIOs as secondary functionality (such as MFD drivers) and platform
code frequently needs to closely integrate GPIO and IRQ support.

This is placed *early* in the build/link sequence since it's common for other
drivers to depend on GPIOs to do their work, so they must be initialized early
in the device_initcall() sequence.

f212ec4b7b x86: early boot debugging via FireWire (ohci1394_dma=early)
This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.

If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.

With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.

In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.

An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.

A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt
and I've put a copy online at
ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt

It also has links to all the tools which are available to make use of it
another copy of it is online at:

ec3d41c4db Virtio interface
This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow
common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O
mechanisms.  It will no-doubt need further enhancement.

The virtio drivers add buffers to virtio queues; as the buffers are consumed
the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked.

There is also a generic implementation of config space which drivers can query
to get setup information from the host.

7589670f37 DCA: Add Direct Cache Access driver
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.

    CPUIDLE: max_cstate fix

    Currently max_cstate is limited to 0, resulting in no idle processor
    power management on ACPI platforms.  This patch restores the value to
    the array size.

    CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver

    Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and
    limit state entry depth internally, rather than exposing such
    requirements to CPUIDLE.  As a result, CPUIDLE can drop this
    ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent.  BM
    activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
    original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
    verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

    CPUIDLE: menu governor updates

    Tweak the menu governor to more effectively handle non-timer
    break events.  Non-timer break events are detected by comparing the
    actual sleep time to the expected sleep time.  In future revisions, it
    may be more reliable to use the timer data structures directly.

    cpuidle: re-write

    Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
    weight.  The following is a list of changes:

    1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
    2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
    CPUIDLE drivers directly
    3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
    cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
    4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
    5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
    negative values
    6.) a variety of other small cleanups

    Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
    CPUIDLE sysfs inteface.  On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
    poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
    supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
    handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

    cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor

    Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
    full advantage of NO_HZ.  I call it the 'menu' governor because it
    considers the full list of idle states before each entry.

    I've kept the implementation fairly simple.  It attempts to guess the
    next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
    the break-even point between power savings and entry cost.  To this end,
    it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
    constraints:
         1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
            is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
            to C2-type or above.
         2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
         3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
            excluding timer interrupts.

    This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
    proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
    using the tick infrastructure.  Also, it handles device interrupt
    activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
    event calculations.  Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
    number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
    makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
    time deltas.

    The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
    interface like so:
    "echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

    cpuidle: export time until next timer interrupt using NO_HZ

    Expose information about the time remaining until the next
    timer interrupt expires by utilizing the dynticks infrastructure.
    Also modify the main idle loop to allow dynticks to handle

    information to external code.  Thomas Gleixner is responsible for much
    of the code in this patch.  However, I've made some additional changes,
    so I'm probably responsible if there are any bugs or oversights :)

    a system that does not support C-states.

    x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from
    idle handler.  This is due to enter_idle(), exit_idle() races.  Make
    cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.

    Also, cpuidle look at the return values of attch_driver() and set
    current_driver to NULL if attach fails on all CPUs.

    cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure

    Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
    idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
    cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
    of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
    at run time.
    A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
    varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
    A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
    laptop on battery etc).
    Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
    of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.

    A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
    since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.

    This patch:

    Core cpuidle infrastructure.
    Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
    * which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
      can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
    * allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
      decision
    * The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
      about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.

647e50f383 [WATCHDOG] Fix pcwd_init_module crash
Fix for the problem detected by Ingo Molnar:
enabling CONFIG_PCWATCHDOG=y crashes bzImage bootup.

The reason for this can be found in drivers/makefile
We first do:
obj-y                           += char/
and later we do:
obj-y                           += base/ block/ misc/ mfd/ net/ media/

So if we put a platform or isa or usb bus driver in char/watchdog
(which is called from the Makefile in drivers/char/Makefile)
then we didn't have the different device drivers initialized yet
(they are in drivers/base and drivers/usb and ...)

This fix makes sure that we compile the watchdog drivers after
drivers/base, drivers/misc, drivers/pci and drivers/usb.
We also do the compile after hwmon because in the future the
watchdog temperature support will use the hwmon system.

9c1600eda4 i2c: Add i2c_board_info and i2c_new_device()
This provides partial support for new-style I2C driver binding.  It builds
on "struct i2c_board_info" declarations that identify I2C devices on a given
board.  This is needed on systems with I2C devices that can't be fully probed
and/or autoconfigured, such as many embedded Linux configurations where the
way a given I2C device is wired may affect how it must be used.

There are two models for declaring such devices:

 * LATE -- using a public function i2c_new_device().  This lets modules
   declare I2C devices found *AFTER* a given I2C adapter becomes available.
   
   For example, a PCI card could create adapters giving access to utility
   chips on that card, and this would be used to associate those chips with
   those adapters.

 * EARLY -- from arch_initcall() level code, using a non-exported function
   i2c_register_board_info().  This copies the declarations *BEFORE* such
   an i2c_adapter becomes available, arranging that i2c_new_device() will
   be called later when i2c-core registers the relevant i2c_adapter.

   For example, arch/.../.../board-*.c files would declare the I2C devices
   along with their platform data, and I2C devices would behave much like
   PNPACPI devices.  (That is, both enumerate from board-specific tables.)

To match the exported i2c_new_device(), the previously-private function
i2c_unregister_device() is now exported.

Pending later patches using these new APIs, this is effectively a NOP.

6aa8b732ca [PATCH] kvm: userspace interface
web site: http://kvm.sourceforge.net

mailing list: kvm-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
  (http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kvm-devel)

The following patchset adds a driver for Intel's hardware virtualization
extensions to the x86 architecture.  The driver adds a character device
(/dev/kvm) that exposes the virtualization capabilities to userspace.  Using
this driver, a process can run a virtual machine (a "guest") in a fully
virtualized PC containing its own virtual hard disks, network adapters, and
display.

Using this driver, one can start multiple virtual machines on a host.

Each virtual machine is a process on the host; a virtual cpu is a thread in
that process.  kill(1), nice(1), top(1) work as expected.  In effect, the
driver adds a third execution mode to the existing two: we now have kernel
mode, user mode, and guest mode.  Guest mode has its own address space mapping
guest physical memory (which is accessible to user mode by mmap()ing
/dev/kvm).  Guest mode has no access to any I/O devices; any such access is
intercepted and directed to user mode for emulation.

The driver supports i386 and x86_64 hosts and guests.  All combinations are
allowed except x86_64 guest on i386 host.  For i386 guests and hosts, both pae
and non-pae paging modes are supported.

SMP hosts and UP guests are supported.  At the moment only Intel
hardware is supported, but AMD virtualization support is being worked on.

Performance currently is non-stellar due to the naive implementation of the
mmu virtualization, which throws away most of the shadow page table entries
every context switch.  We plan to address this in two ways:

- cache shadow page tables across tlb flushes
- wait until AMD and Intel release processors with nested page tables

Currently a virtual desktop is responsive but consumes a lot of CPU.  Under
Windows I tried playing pinball and watching a few flash movies; with a recent
CPU one can hardly feel the virtualization.  Linux/X is slower, probably due
to X being in a separate process.

In addition to the driver, you need a slightly modified qemu to provide I/O
device emulation and the BIOS.

Caveats (akpm: might no longer be true):

- The Windows install currently bluescreens due to a problem with the
  virtual APIC.  We are working on a fix.  A temporary workaround is to
  use an existing image or install through qemu
- Windows 64-bit does not work.  That's also true for qemu, so it's
  probably a problem with the device model.

466575f4e9 [PATCH] drivers/sn/ must be entered for CONFIG_SGI_IOC3
Actually I think this is more appropriate so we don't end up with 17
cases that add drivers/sn to the build lib.
Include drivers/sn when CONFIG_IA64_SGI_SN2 or CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC
is enabled.

da9bb1d27b [PATCH] EDAC: core EDAC support code
This is a subset of the bluesmoke project core code, stripped of the NMI work
which isn't ready to merge and some of the "interesting" proc functionality
that needs reworking or just has no place in kernel.  It requires no core
kernel changes except the added scrub functions already posted.

The goal is to merge further functionality only after the core code is
accepted and proven in the base kernel, and only at the point the upstream
extras are really ready to merge.

From: doug thompson <norsk5@xmission.com>

  This converts EDAC to sysfs and is the final chunk neccessary before EDAC
  has a stable user space API and can be considered for submission into the
  base kernel.

8ae12a0d85 [PATCH] spi: simple SPI framework
This is the core of a small SPI framework, implementing the model of a
queue of messages which complete asynchronously (with thin synchronous
wrappers on top).

  - It's still less than 2KB of ".text" (ARM).  If there's got to be a
    mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget.  :)

  - The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver
    model tree.  (Hardware probing is rarely an option.)

  - This version of Kconfig includes no drivers.  At this writing there
    are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire)
    and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML
    mentions of other drivers in development.

  - No userspace API.  There are several implementations to compare.
    Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs.

The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor,
and include:

  - One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device
    names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect.

  - The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for
    DMA drivers that want to be fancy.

  - Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init.  Even though board init
    logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is
    for driver support, and the board init support uses static init.

  - Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions
    with other folk.  It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk
    who've helped nudge this framework into existence.

As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support
that this driver framework will need to evolve.

From: Mark Underwood <basicmark@yahoo.com>

  Update the SPI framework to remove a potential priority inversion case by
  reverting to kmalloc if the pre-allocated DMA-safe buffer isn't available.

6015d2c4ca Link USB drivers later in the kernel
We want to link the "regular" SCSI drivers before the USB storage
driver, since historically we've always detected internal SCSI disks
before the external USB storage modules.

The link order matters for initcall ordering, and this got broken by
mistake by commit 7586269c0b which moved
the USB host controller PCI quirk handling around.

394b701ce4 [PATCH] RapidIO support: core base
Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel.  RIO is a switched fabric interconnect
used in higher-end embedded applications.  The curious can look at the specs
over at http://www.rapidio.org

The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of
devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers.

There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware features.
However, this should provide a good base for folks with RIO hardware to start
contributing.

7586269c0b [PATCH] USB: move handoff code
This moves the PCI quirk handling for USB host controllers from the
PCI directory to the USB directory.  Follow-on patches will need to:

(a) merge these copies with the originals in the HCD reset methods.
they don't wholly agree, despite doing the very same thing; and

(b) eventually change it so "usb-handoff" is the default, to help
get more robust USB/BIOS/input/... interactions.

7672d0b544 [NET]: Add netlink connector.
Kernel connector - new userspace <-> kernel space easy to use
communication module which implements easy to use bidirectional
message bus using netlink as it's backend.  Connector was created to
eliminate complex skb handling both in send and receive message bus
direction.

Connector driver adds possibility to connect various agents using as
one of it's backends netlink based network.  One must register
callback and identifier. When driver receives special netlink message
with appropriate identifier, appropriate callback will be called.

From the userspace point of view it's quite straightforward:

	socket();
	bind();
	send();
	recv();

But if kernelspace want to use full power of such connections, driver
writer must create special sockets, must know about struct sk_buff
handling...  Connector allows any kernelspace agents to use netlink
based networking for inter-process communication in a significantly
easier way:

int cn_add_callback(struct cb_id *id, char *name, void (*callback) (void *));
void cn_netlink_send(struct cn_msg *msg, u32 __groups, int gfp_mask);

struct cb_id
{
	__u32			idx;
	__u32			val;
};

idx and val are unique identifiers which must be registered in
connector.h for in-kernel usage.  void (*callback) (void *) - is a
callback function which will be called when message with above idx.val
will be received by connector core.

Using connector completely hides low-level transport layer from it's
users.

Connector uses new netlink ability to have many groups in one socket.

The SGI IOC4 I/O controller chip drivers are currently all configured by
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SGIIOC4.  This is undesirable as not all IOC4 hardware features
are needed by all systems.

This patch adds two configuration variables, CONFIG_SGI_IOC4 for core IOC4
driver support (see patch 1/3 in this series for further explanation) and
CONFIG_SERIAL_SGI_IOC4 to independently enable serial port support.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
