2015-01-25i8k: Add support for fan labelsPali Rohár
This patch adds labels support for fans if SMM function with EAX register 0x03a3 reports it. This information was taken from DOS binary NBSVC.MDM. Additionally this patch change detection of fan presece. Instead reading fan status now detection is based on new label SMM function. Dell DOS binary NBSVC.MDM is doing similar checks, so we should do that too. This patch also remove I8K_FAN_LEFT and I8K_FAN_RIGHT usage from hwmon driver part because that names does not make sense anymore. So numeric constants are used instead. Original /proc/i8k ioctl part was not changed for compatibility reasons.

2015-01-25i8k: Remove DMI config data for Latitude E6440 and E6540Pali Rohár
Both Dell Latitude machines were tested with new fan autodetection code and they are working fine. We already have DMI_MATCH data for generic Latitude machines which match also E6440 and E6540 models. So we do not need to maintain DMI data for those specific machines anymore.

2015-01-25i8k: Autodetect fan RPM multiplierPali Rohár
This patch adds new function i8k_get_fan_nominal_speed() for doing SMM call which will return nominal fan RPM for specified fan speed. It returns nominal RPM value at which fan operate when speed (0, 1, 2, 3) is set. It looks like RPM value is not accurate, but still provides very useful information. New function i8k_get_fan_nominal_speed() is used for determinate if fan multiplier is 1 or 30. If function for maximal fan value success and returned RPM value too high (above 30000) then fan multiplier is set to 1. Otherwise multiplier is not changed and default value 30 is used.

2014-11-26i8k: Fix temperature bug handling in i8k_get_temp()Pali Rohár
Static array prev[] was incorrectly initialized. It should be initialized to some "invalid" temperature value (above I8K_MAX_TEMP). Next, function should store "invalid" value to prev[] (above I8K_MAX_TEMP), not valid (= I8K_MAX_TEMP) because whole temperature bug handling will not work. And last part, to not break existing detection of temperature sensors, register them also if i8k report too high temperature (above I8K_MAX_TEMP). This is needed because some sensors are sometimes turned off (e.g sensor on GPU which can be turned off/on) and in this case SMM report too high value. To prevent reporting "invalid" values to userspace, return -EINVAL. In this case sensors which are currently turned off (e.g optimus/powerexpress/enduro gpu) are reported as "N/A" by lm-sensors package.

Commit f36fdb9f0266 (i8k: Force SMM to run on CPU 0) adds support for multi-core CPUs to the driver. Unfortunately, that causes it to fail loading if compiled without SMP support, at least on 32 bit kernels. Kernel log shows "i8k: unable to get SMM Dell signature", and function i8k_smm is found to return -EINVAL. Testing revealed that the culprit is the missing return value check of set_cpus_allowed_ptr.

2010-11-15Fix gcc 4.5.1 miscompiling drivers/char/i8k.c (again)Jim Bos
The fix in commit 6b4e81db2552 ("i8k: Tell gcc that *regs gets clobbered") to work around the gcc miscompiling i8k.c to add "+m (*regs)" caused register pressure problems and a build failure. Changing the 'asm' statement to 'asm volatile' instead should prevent that and works around the gcc bug as well, so we can remove the "+m". [ Background on the gcc bug: a memory clobber fails to mark the function the asm resides in as non-pure (aka "__attribute__((const))"), so if the function does nothing else that triggers the non-pure logic, gcc will think that that function has no side effects at all. As a result, callers will be mis-compiled. Adding the "+m" made gcc see that it's not a pure function, and so does "asm volatile". The problem was never really the need to mark "*regs" as changed, since the memory clobber did that part - the problem was just a bug in the gcc "pure" function analysis - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Jim Bos <jim876@xs4all.nl> Acked-by: Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Andreas Schwab <schwab@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2010-10-05drivers: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutexArnd Bergmann
All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial way to serialize their private file operations, typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic pushdown from VFS. None of these drivers appears to want to lock against other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level lock in their file operations, meaning that there is no lock-order inversion problem. Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely, replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case. Using a scripted approach means we can avoid typos. These drivers do not seem to be under active maintainance from my brief investigation. Apologies to those maintainers that I have missed. file=$1 name=$2 if grep -q lock_kernel ${file} ; then if grep -q 'include.*linux.mutex.h' ${file} ; then sed -i '/include.*<linux\/smp_lock.h>/d' ${file} else sed -i 's/include.*<linux\/smp_lock.h>.*$/include <linux\/mutex.h>/g' ${file} fi sed -i ${file} \ -e "/^#include.*linux.mutex.h/,$ { 1,/^\(static\|int\|long\)/ { /^\(static\|int\|long\)/istatic DEFINE_MUTEX(${name}_mutex); } }" \ -e "s/\(un\)*lock_kernel\>[ ]*()/mutex_\1lock(\&${name}_mutex)/g" \ -e '/[ ]*cycle_kernel_lock();/d' else sed -i -e '/include.*\<smp_lock.h\>/d' ${file} \ -e '/cycle_kernel_lock()/d' fi Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

2007-10-09drivers/firmware: const-ify DMI API and internalsJeff Garzik
Three main sets of changes: 1) dmi_get_system_info() return value should have been marked const, since callers should not be changing that data. 2) const-ify DMI internals, since DMI firmware tables should, whenever possible, be marked const to ensure we never ever write to that data area. 3) const-ify DMI API, to enable marking tables const where possible in low-level drivers. And if we're really lucky, this might enable some additional optimizations on the part of the compiler. The bulk of the changes are #2 and #3, which are interrelated. #1 could have been a separate patch, but it was so small compared to the others, it was easier to roll it into this changeset.
