git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client Pull Ceph update from Sage Weil: "There are a few different groups of commits here. The largest is Alex's ongoing work to enable the coming RBD features (cloning, striping). There is some cleanup in libceph that goes along with it. Cyril and David have fixed some problems with NFS reexport (leaking dentries and page locks), and there is a batch of patches from Yan fixing problems with the fs client when running against a clustered MDS. There are a few bug fixes mixed in for good measure, many of which will be going to the stable trees once they're upstream. My apologies for the late pull. There is still a gremlin in the rbd map/unmap code and I was hoping to include the fix for that as well, but we haven't been able to confirm the fix is correct yet; I'll send that in a separate pull once it's nailed down." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client: (68 commits) rbd: get rid of rbd_{get,put}_dev() libceph: register request before unregister linger libceph: don't use rb_init_node() in ceph_osdc_alloc_request() libceph: init event->node in ceph_osdc_create_event() libceph: init osd->o_node in create_osd() libceph: report connection fault with warning libceph: socket can close in any connection state rbd: don't use ENOTSUPP rbd: remove linger unconditionally rbd: get rid of RBD_MAX_SEG_NAME_LEN libceph: avoid using freed osd in __kick_osd_requests() ceph: don't reference req after put rbd: do not allow remove of mounted-on image libceph: Unlock unprocessed pages in start_read() error path ceph: call handle_cap_grant() for cap import message ceph: Fix __ceph_do_pending_vmtruncate ceph: Don't add dirty inode to dirty list if caps is in migration ceph: Fix infinite loop in __wake_requests ceph: Don't update i_max_size when handling non-auth cap bdi_register: add __printf verification, fix arg mismatch ...

2012-12-14ima: support new kernel module syscallMimi Zohar
With the addition of the new kernel module syscall, which defines two arguments - a file descriptor to the kernel module and a pointer to a NULL terminated string of module arguments - it is now possible to measure and appraise kernel modules like any other file on the file system. This patch adds support to measure and appraise kernel modules in an extensible and consistent manner. To support filesystems without extended attribute support, additional patches could pass the signature as the first parameter.

2012-11-20PM / devfreq: Add sysfs node to expose available frequenciesNishanth Menon
devfreq governors such as ondemand are controlled by a min and max frequency, while governors like userspace governor allow us to set a specific frequency. However, for the same specific device, depending on the SoC, the available frequencies can vary. So expose the available frequencies as a snapshot over sysfs to allow informed decisions. This was inspired by cpufreq framework's equivalent for similar usage sysfs node: scaling_available_frequencies.

2012-11-16ACPI: create _SUN sysfs fileYasuaki Ishimatsu
_SUN method provides the slot unique-ID in the ACPI namespace. And The value is written in Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification as follows: "The _SUN value is required to be unique among the slots ofthe same type. It is also recommended that this number match the slot number printed on the physical slot whenever possible." So if we can know the value, we can identify the physical position of the slot in the system. The patch creates "sun" file in sysfs for identifying physical position of the slot.

2012-11-15PM / devfreq: Core updates to support devices which can idleRajagopal Venkat
Prepare devfreq core framework to support devices which can idle. When device idleness is detected perhaps through runtime-pm, need some mechanism to suspend devfreq load monitoring and resume back when device is online. Present code continues monitoring unless device is removed from devfreq core. This patch introduces following design changes, - use per device work instead of global work to monitor device load. This enables suspend/resume of device devfreq and reduces monitoring code complexity. - decouple delayed work based load monitoring logic from core by introducing helpers functions to be used by governors. This provides flexibility for governors either to use delayed work based monitoring functions or to implement their own mechanism. - devfreq core interacts with governors via events to perform specific actions. These events include start/stop devfreq. This sets ground for adding suspend/resume events. The devfreq apis are not modified and are kept intact.

2012-10-24PM / QoS: Make it possible to expose PM QoS device flags to user spaceRafael J. Wysocki
Define two device PM QoS flags, PM_QOS_FLAG_NO_POWER_OFF and PM_QOS_FLAG_REMOTE_WAKEUP, and introduce routines dev_pm_qos_expose_flags() and dev_pm_qos_hide_flags() allowing the caller to expose those two flags to user space or to hide them from it, respectively. After the flags have been exposed, user space will see two additional sysfs attributes, pm_qos_no_power_off and pm_qos_remote_wakeup, under the device's /sys/devices/.../power/ directory. Then, writing 1 to one of them will update the PM QoS flags request owned by user space so that the corresponding flag is requested to be set. In turn, writing 0 to one of them will cause the corresponding flag in the user space's request to be cleared (however, the owners of the other PM QoS flags requests for the same device may still request the flag to be set and it may be effectively set even if user space doesn't request that).
