Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's incoming - part two)
Says Andrew: "60 patches. That's good enough for -rc1 I guess. I have quite a lot of detritus to be rechecked, work through maintainers, etc. - most of the remains of MM - rtc - various misc - cgroups - memcg - cpusets - procfs - ipc - rapidio - sysctl - pps - w1 - drivers/misc - aio" * akpm: (60 commits) memcg: replace ss->id_lock with a rwlock aio: allocate kiocbs in batches drivers/misc/vmw_balloon.c: fix typo in code comment drivers/misc/vmw_balloon.c: determine page allocation flag can_sleep outside loop w1: disable irqs in critical section drivers/w1/w1_int.c: multiple masters used same init_name drivers/power/ds2780_battery.c: fix deadlock upon insertion and removal drivers/power/ds2780_battery.c: add a nolock function to w1 interface drivers/power/ds2780_battery.c: create central point for calling w1 interface w1: ds2760 and ds2780, use ida for id and ida_simple_get() to get it pps gpio client: add missing dependency pps: new client driver using GPIO pps: default echo function include/linux/dma-mapping.h: add dma_zalloc_coherent() sysctl: make CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL default to n sysctl: add support for poll() RapidIO: documentation update drivers/net/rionet.c: fix ethernet address macros for LE platforms RapidIO: fix potential null deref in rio_setup_device() RapidIO: add mport driver for Tsi721 bridge ...

What: sys_sysctl | ||
When: September 2010 | ||
Option: CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL | ||
Why: The same information is available in a more convenient from | ||
/proc/sys, and none of the sysctl variables appear to be | ||
important performance wise. | ||
|
||
Binary sysctls are a long standing source of subtle kernel | ||
bugs and security issues. | ||
|
||
When I looked several months ago all I could find after | ||
searching several distributions were 5 user space programs and | ||
glibc (which falls back to /proc/sys) using this syscall. | ||
|
||
The man page for sysctl(2) documents it as unusable for user | ||
space programs. | ||
|
||
sysctl(2) is not generally ABI compatible to a 32bit user | ||
space application on a 64bit and a 32bit kernel. | ||
|
||
For the last several months the policy has been no new binary | ||
sysctls and no one has put forward an argument to use them. | ||
|
||
Binary sysctls issues seem to keep happening appearing so | ||
properly deprecating them (with a warning to user space) and a | ||
2 year grace warning period will mean eventually we can kill | ||
them and end the pain. | ||
|
||
In the mean time individual binary sysctls can be dealt with | ||
in a piecewise fashion. | ||

RapidIO subsystem mport driver for IDT Tsi721 PCI Express-to-SRIO bridge. | ||
========================================================================= | ||
|
||
I. Overview | ||
|
||
This driver implements all currently defined RapidIO mport callback functions. | ||
It supports maintenance read and write operations, inbound and outbound RapidIO | ||
doorbells, inbound maintenance port-writes and RapidIO messaging. | ||
|
||
To generate SRIO maintenance transactions this driver uses one of Tsi721 DMA | ||
channels. This mechanism provides access to larger range of hop counts and | ||
destination IDs without need for changes in outbound window translation. | ||
|
||
RapidIO messaging support uses dedicated messaging channels for each mailbox. | ||
For inbound messages this driver uses destination ID matching to forward messages | ||
into the corresponding message queue. Messaging callbacks are implemented to be | ||
fully compatible with RIONET driver (Ethernet over RapidIO messaging services). | ||
|
||
II. Known problems | ||
|
||
None. | ||
|
||
III. To do | ||
|
||
Add DMA data transfers (non-messaging). | ||
Add inbound region (SRIO-to-PCIe) mapping. | ||
|
||
IV. Version History | ||
|
||
1.0.0 - Initial driver release. | ||
