Previously all data passed over binder needed to be serialized, with the exception of Binder objects and file descriptors. This patchs adds support for scatter-gathering raw memory buffers into a binder transaction, avoiding the need to first serialize them into a Parcel. To remain backwards compatibile with existing binder clients, it introduces two new command ioctls for this purpose - BC_TRANSACTION_SG and BC_REPLY_SG. These commands may only be used with the new binder_transaction_data_sg structure, which adds a field for the total size of the buffers we are scatter-gathering. Because memory buffers may contain pointers to other buffers, we allow callers to specify a parent buffer and an offset into it, to indicate this is a location pointing to the buffer that we are fixing up. The kernel will then take care of fixing up the pointer to that buffer as well.

The binder_buffer allocator currently only allocates space for the data and offsets buffers of a Parcel. This change allows for requesting an additional chunk of data in the buffer, which can for example be used to hold additional meta-data about the transaction (eg a security context).

Add a new module parameter 'devices', that can be used to specify the names of the binder device nodes we want to populate in /dev. Each device node has its own context manager, and is therefore logically separated from all the other device nodes. The config option CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES can be used to set the default value of the parameter. This approach was favored over using IPC namespaces, mostly because we require a single process to be a part of multiple binder contexts, which seemed harder to achieve with namespaces.

flat_binder_object is used for both handling binder objects and file descriptors, even though the two are mostly independent. Since we'll have more fixup objects in binder in the future, instead of extending flat_binder_object again, split out file descriptors to their own object while retaining backwards compatibility to existing user-space clients. All binder objects just share a header.

This patch fixes following issues in input device (keypad) handling: - requesting IRQ before allocating and initializing parts of the device that can be referenced from IRQ handler is racy, even if we try to disable interrupt after requesting it. Let's move allocations around so that everything is ready by the time we request IRQ. - using threaded interrupt handler to schedule a work item it sub-optimal. Disabling and then re-enabling interrupts in work item and in open/close methods is prone to races and exactly the reason theraded interrupts were introduced. Let's use the infrastructure properly and keep scanning the matrix array in IRQ thread, stopping when there are no keys, or when told to do so.

With TimeSync version 4 protocol support we started updating system time continuously through the whole lifetime of Hyper-V guests. Every 5 seconds there is a time sample from the host which triggers do_settimeofday[64](). While the time from the host is very accurate such adjustments may cause issues: - Time is jumping forward and backward, some applications may misbehave. - In case an NTP server runs in parallel and uses something else for time sync (network, PTP,...) system time will never converge. - Systemd starts annoying you by printing "Time has been changed" every 5 seconds to the system log. Instead of doing in-kernel time adjustments offload the work to an NTP client by exposing TimeSync messages as a PTP device. Users may now decide what they want to use as a source. I tested the solution with chrony, the config was: refclock PHC /dev/ptp0 poll 3 dpoll -2 offset 0 The result I'm seeing is accurate enough, the time delta between the guest and the host is almost always within [-10us, +10us], the in-kernel solution was giving us comparable results. I also tried implementing PPS device instead of PTP by using not currently used Hyper-V synthetic timers (we use only one of four for clockevent) but with PPS source only chrony wasn't able to give me the required accuracy, the delta often more that 100us.

Currently the periodic scan timer is used for three purposes, entangling keypad and display handling, which are both optional: 1. Scanning the keypad, 2. Flashing the backlight when a key is pressed, 3. Disabling temporary backlighting after a fixed period of time. Abstract the second purpose using a new lcd_poke() function. Make the non-periodic temporary backlight handling independent from keypad handling by converting it to a delayed workqueue.

This allows the driver to avoid a high order coherent DMA allocation and memory copy. With this patch it can DMA directly from the kernel pages that the bitfile is stored in. Since this is now a gather DMA operation the driver uses the ISR to feed the chips DMA queue with each entry from the SGL.

Requiring contiguous kernel memory is not a good idea, this is a limited resource and allocation can fail under normal work loads. This introduces a .write_sg op that supporting drivers can provide to DMA directly from dis-contiguous memory and a new entry point fpga_mgr_buf_load_sg that users can call to directly provide page lists. The full matrix of compatibility is provided, either the linear or sg interface can be used by the user with a driver supporting either interface. A notable change for drivers is that the .write op can now be called multiple times.

There is no sense in sending a bitstream we know will not work, and with the variety of options for bitstream generation in Xilinx tools it is not terribly clear what the correct input should be. This is particularly important for Zynq since auto-correction was removed from the driver and the Zynq hardware only accepts a bitstream format that is different from what the Xilinx tools typically produce. Worse, the hardware provides no indication why the bitstream fails, it simply times out if the input is wrong. The best option here is to have the kernel print a message informing the user they are using a malformed bistream and programming failure isn't for any of the myriad of other reasons.
