irda: move drivers/net/irda to drivers/staging/irda/drivers

2017-08-28T23:42:57+00:00

Move the irda drivers from drivers/net/irda/ to drivers/staging/irda/drivers as they will be deleted in a future kernel release. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Annotate hardware config module parameters in drivers/net/irda/

2017-04-20T11:02:32+00:00

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a device to access or modify the kernel image. To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down. The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the default values for those parameters is. Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition to manually coded parameters. This patch annotates drivers in drivers/net/irda/. Suggested-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: David Howells cc: Samuel Ortiz cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org

irda: ali-ircc: Fix deadlock in ali_ircc_sir_change_speed()

2015-09-11T23:18:33+00:00

ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() is always called with self->lock held, so acquiring the lock inside it leads to unavoidable deadlock. Call graph: ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() is called from ali_ircc_change_speed() ali_ircc_fir_hard_xmit() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_sir_hard_xmit() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_net_ioctl() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_dma_xmit_complete() ali_ircc_fir_interrupt() ali_ircc_interrupt() under spin_lock(&self->lock); ali_ircc_sir_write_wakeup() ali_ircc_sir_interrupt() ali_ircc_interrupt() under spin_lock(&self->lock); The patch removes spin_lock/unlock from ali_ircc_sir_change_speed().

irda: ali-ircc: Replace timeval with ktime_t

2015-01-12T02:39:40+00:00

The ali ircc driver uses 'timeval', which we try to remove in the kernel because all 32-bit time types will break in the year 2038. This patch also changes do_gettimeofday() to ktime_get() accordingly, since ktime_get returns a ktime_t, but do_gettimeofday returns a struct timeval, and the other reason is that ktime_get() uses the monotonic clock. This patch uses ktime_us_delta to get the elapsed time, and in this way it no longer needs to check for the overflow, because ktime_us_delta returns time difference of microsecond.

Pull driver core update from Greg KH: "Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1. They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just removing a line in a structure. Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.

irda: Convert IRDA_DEBUG to pr_debug

2014-11-12T18:56:41+00:00

Use the normal kernel debugging mechanism which also enables dynamic_debug at the same time. Other miscellanea: o Remove sysctl for irda_debug o Remove function tracing like uses (use ftrace instead) o Coalesce formats o Realign arguments o Remove unnecessary OOM messages Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S.

irda: Remove IRDA_ logging macros

2014-11-11T23:11:00+00:00

And use the more common mechanisms directly. Other miscellanea: o Coalesce formats o Add missing newlines o Realign arguments o Remove unnecessary OOM message logging as there's a generic stack dump already on OOM. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
