5 years agodriver: core: Allow subsystems to continue deferring probe
Thierry Reding [Fri, 21 Jun 2019 15:17:25 +0000 (17:17 +0200)]
driver: core: Allow subsystems to continue deferring probe

Some subsystems, such as pinctrl, allow continuing to defer probe
indefinitely. This is useful for devices that depend on resources
provided by devices that are only probed after the init stage.

One example of this can be seen on Tegra, where the DPAUX hardware
contains pinmuxing controls for pins that it shares with an I2C
controller. The I2C controller is typically used for communication
with a monitor over HDMI (DDC). However, other instances of the I2C
controller are used to access system critical components, such as a
PMIC. The I2C controller driver will therefore usually be a builtin
driver, whereas the DPAUX driver is part of the display driver that
is loaded from a module to avoid bloating the kernel image with all
of the DRM/KMS subsystem.

In this particular case the pins used by this I2C/DDC controller
become accessible very late in the boot process. However, since the
controller is only used in conjunction with display, that's not an
issue.

Unfortunately the driver core currently outputs a warning message
when a device fails to get the pinctrl before the end of the init
stage. That can be confusing for the user because it may sound like
an unwanted error occurred, whereas it's really an expected and
harmless situation.

In order to eliminate this warning, this patch allows callers of the
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() helper to specify that they want
to continue deferring probe, regardless of whether we're past the
init stage or not. All of the callers of that function are updated
for the new signature, but only the pinctrl subsystem passes a true
value in the new persist parameter if appropriate.

drivers: base: cacheinfo: Ensure cpu hotplug work is done before Intel RDT

The cacheinfo structures are alloced/freed by cpu online/offline
callbacks. Originally these were only used by sysfs to expose the
cache topology to user space. Without any in-kernel dependencies
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN was an appropriate choice.

resctrl has started using these structures to identify CPUs that
share a cache. It updates its 'domain' structures from cpu
online/offline callbacks. These depend on the cacheinfo structures
(resctrl_online_cpu()->domain_add_cpu()->get_cache_id()->
 get_cpu_cacheinfo()).
These also run as CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN.

Now that there is an in-kernel dependency, move the cacheinfo
work earlier so we know its done before resctrl's CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN
work runs.

Suzuki K Poulose [Fri, 14 Jun 2019 17:53:58 +0000 (18:53 +0100)]
acpi: utils: Cleanup acpi_dev_match_cb

The prototype of bus_find_device() will be unified with that of
class_find_device() subsequently, but for this purpose the callback
functions passed to it need to take (const void *) as the second
argument.  Consequently, they cannot modify the memory pointed to by
that argument which currently is not the case for acpi_dev_match_cb().
However, acpi_dev_match_cb() really need not modify the "match" object
passed to it, because acpi_dev_get_first_match_dev() which uses it via
bus_find_device() can easily convert the result of bus_find_device()
into the pointer to return.

For this reason, update acpi_dev_match_cb() to avoid the redundant
memory updates.

Takashi Iwai [Tue, 11 Jun 2019 12:26:25 +0000 (14:26 +0200)]
firmware: Add support for loading compressed files

This patch adds the support for loading compressed firmware files.
The primary motivation is to reduce the storage size; e.g. currently
the files in /lib/firmware on my machine counts up to 419MB, while
they can be reduced to 130MB by file compression.

The patch introduces a new kconfig option CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS.
Even with this option set, the firmware loader still tries to load the
original firmware file as-is at first, but then falls back to the file
with ".xz" extension when it's not found, and the decompressed file
content is returned to the caller of request_firmware().  So, no
change is needed for the rest.

Currently only XZ format is supported.  A caveat is that the kernel XZ
helper code supports only CRC32 (or none) integrity check type, so
you'll have to compress the files via xz -C crc32 option.

Since we can't determine the expanded size immediately from an XZ
file, the patch re-uses the paged buffer that was used for the
user-mode fallback; it puts the decompressed content page, which are
vmapped at the end.  The paged buffer code is conditionally built with
a new Kconfig that is selected automatically.

The firmware loader queries if LSM/IMA permits it to load firmware

it expressly permits sysfs fw loading if security_kernel_load_data(
LOADING_FIRMWARE) returns -EACCES. This happens because a
zero-on-success return value is cast to a bool that's true on success.

5 years agofirmware: Use kvmalloc for page tables

firmware: Use kvmalloc for page tables

This is a minor optimization to use kvmalloc() variant for allocating
the page table for the SG-buffer.  They aren't so big in general, so
kmalloc() would fit often better.
