Linus Torvalds	9aa3d651a9	Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending ... Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "This series contains HCH's changes to absorb configfs attribute ->show() + ->store() function pointer usage from it's original tree-wide consumers, into common configfs code. It includes usb-gadget, target w/ drivers, netconsole and ocfs2 changes to realize the improved simplicity, that now renders the original include/target/configfs_macros.h CPP magic for fabric drivers and others, unnecessary and obsolete. And with common code in place, new configfs attributes can be added easier than ever before. Note, there are further improvements in-flight from other folks for v4.5 code in configfs land, plus number of target fixes for post -rc1 code" In the meantime, a new user of the now-removed old configfs API came in through the char/misc tree in commit 7bd1d4093c ("stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devices"). This merge resolution comes from Alexander Shishkin, who updated his stm class tracing abstraction to account for the removal of the old show_attribute and store_attribute methods in commit 517982229f ("configfs: remove old API") from this pull. As Alexander says about that patch: "There's no need to keep an extra wrapper structure per item and the awkward show_attribute/store_attribute item ops are no longer needed. This patch converts policy code to the new api, all the while making the code quite a bit smaller and easier on the eyes. Signed-off-by: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com>" That patch was folded into the merge so that the tree should be fully bisectable. * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (23 commits) configfs: remove old API ocfs2/cluster: use per-attribute show and store methods ocfs2/cluster: move locking into attribute store methods netconsole: use per-attribute show and store methods target: use per-attribute show and store methods spear13xx_pcie_gadget: use per-attribute show and store methods dlm: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_serial: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_phonet: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_obex: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_uac2: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_uac1: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_mass_storage: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_sourcesink: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_printer: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_midi: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_loopback: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/ether: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_acm: use per-attribute show and store methods usb-gadget/f_hid: use per-attribute show and store methods ...	2015-11-13 20:04:17 -08:00
Alexander Shishkin	7bd1d4093c	stm class: Introduce an abstraction for System Trace Module devices ... A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM. This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP stream. This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency. For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism. For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that can be connected to an stm device at run time.
