2008-03-15ACPI: Remove ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD optionLinus Torvalds3-56/+2
This essentially reverts commit 71fc47a9adf8ee89e5c96a47222915c5485ac437 ("ACPI: basic initramfs DSDT override support"), because the code simply isn't ready. It did ugly things to the init sequence to populate the rootfs image early, but that just ended up showing other problems with the whole approach. The fact is, the VFS layer simply isn't initialized this early, and the relevant ACPI code should either run much later, or this shouldn't be done at all. For 2.6.25, we'll just pick the latter option. We can revisit this concept later if necessary.

2008-03-11lguest: Do not append space to guests kernel command linePaul Bolle1-2/+5
The lguest launcher appends a space to the kernel command line (if kernel arguments are specified on its command line). This space is unneeded. More importantly, this appended space will make Red Hat's nash script interpreter (used in a Fedora style initramfs) add an empty argument to init's command line. This empty argument will make kernel arguments like "init=/bin/bash" fail (because the shell will try to execute a script with an empty name). This could be considered a bug in nash, but is easily fixed in the lguest launcher too. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2008-03-04gpio: <linux/gpio.h> and "no GPIO support here" stubsDavid Brownell1-4/+12
Add a <linux/gpio.h> defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that don't support the GPIO programming interface. That includes the arch-specific implementation glue otherwise. This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if they're available, but don't require them. One example of such a driver is NAND driver for various FreeScale chips. On platforms update with GPIO support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the BUSY signal is off. (Also includes a couple minor unrelated doc updates.)

2008-03-04PCI: Add DECLARE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE macroJonas Bonn1-2/+4
The definitions of struct pci_device_id arrays should generally follow the same pattern across the entire kernel. This macro defines this array as const and puts it into the __devinitconst section. There are currently many definitions scattered about the kernel that omit the __devinitdata modifier despite the documentation stating that it should always be there. These definitions really also should have been const, which wasn't possible before but has become so with the addition of the __devinitconst attribute. Furthermore, there are definitions that use "const" and __devinitdata, which is explicitly wrong but the compiler doesn't catch section mismatches if there's only one such one case in the module (which is often the case). Adding the __devinitconst modifier where there was nothing before buys us memory. Adding the const modifier gives the compiler a chance to do its thing. Changing __devinitdata to __devinitconst where it was wrong actually fixes some compiler errors in older (mid-release) kernels that were patched over by "removing" the section attribute altogether (which wastes memory). This macro makes it pretty difficult to get this definition wrong in the future... Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2008-02-23PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback stateRafael J. Wysocki1-5/+8
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices' ->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4 system sleep state. But at least for some devices the operations performed by the ->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations during regular suspend. For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as appropriate. Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way. These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
