genwqe: Remove unused parameter in some functions

2017-12-19T09:54:44Z

This is a clean-up patch, no functional changes intended. It removes the unused parameter of type "struct ddcb_requ*" from the functions genwqe_user_vmap() and genwqe_user_vunmap(). Signed-off-by: Guilherme G. Piccoli Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

genwqe: Make defines uppercase

This is a clean-up patch, no functional changes intended. It makes all defines uppercase, following a "tradition" that helps to make code clearer. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G. Piccoli Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

genwqe: Remove unused variable and rename function

2017-12-19T09:54:44Z

This is a clean-up patch, no functional changes intended. It removes an unused variable from do_execute_ddcb() and also renames the function free_user_pages(), prepending "genwqe" prefix in order to clarify the code. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G. Piccoli Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

genwqe: Take R/W permissions into account when dealing with memory pages

2017-10-23T09:34:42Z

Currently we assume userspace pages are always writable when doing memory pinning. This is not true, specially since userspace applications may allocate their memory the way they want, we have no control over it. If a read-only page is set for pinning, currently the driver fails due to get_user_pages_fast() refusing to map read-only pages as writable. This patch changes this behavior, by taking the permission flags of the pages into account in both pinning/unpinning process, as well as in the DMA data copy-back to userpace (which we shouldn't try to do blindly, since it will fail in case of read-only-pages).

sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:29Z

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

locking/atomic, kref: Add kref_read()

2017-01-14T10:37:18Z

Since we need to change the implementation, stop exposing internals. Provide kref_read() to read the current reference count; typically used for debug messages.

GenWQE: Support blocking when DDCB queue is busy

2014-09-24T06:15:47Z

When the GenWQE hardware queue was busy, the driver returned simply -EBUSY. This caused polling by applications which increased the load on the already busy system. This change implements the possiblity to sleep on a waitqueue instead when the DDCB queue is busy. The requestor is woken up when there is free space on the queue again. The old way to get -EBUSY is still available if the device is openend with O_NONBLOCKING. The default is now blocking behavior. Signed-off-by: Frank Haverkamp Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
