S390 ELF core dump currently only contains the PSW, the general purpose
registers, the floating point registers and the access registers stored
in PRSTATUS/PRFPREG note sections.
For analyzing s390 kernel problems additional registers are important.
In order to be able to include these registers to a kernel ELF core dump,
this patch adds the following five new note sections to elf.h:
* NT_S390_TIMER: S390 timer register
* NT_S390_TODCMP: S390 TOD comparator register
* NT_S390_TODPREG: S390 TOD programmable register
* NT_S390_CTRS: S390 control registers
* NT_S390_PREFIX: S390 prefix register
The new note sections have been already defined and accepted in the upstream
binutils package.

This patch (as1331) adds non-tree ordering constraints needed for
proper resume of PCI USB host controllers from hibernation. The main
issue is that non-high-speed devices must not be resumed before the
high-speed root hub, because it is the ehci_bus_resume() routine which
takes care of handing the device connection over to the companion
controller. If the device resume is attempted before the handover
then the device won't be found and it will be treated as though it had
disconnected.
The patch adds a new field to the usb_bus structure; for each
full/low-speed bus this field will contain a pointer to the companion
high-speed bus (if one exists). It is used during normal device
resume; if the hs_companion pointer isn't NULL then we wait for the
root-hub device on the hs_companion bus.
A secondary issue is that an EHCI controlller shouldn't be resumed
before any of its companions. On some machines I have observed
handovers failing if the companion controller is reinitialized after
the handover. Thus, the EHCI resume routine must wait for the
companion controllers to be resumed.
The patch also fixes a small bug in usb_hcd_pci_probe(); an error path
jumps to the wrong label, causing a memory leak.

There are some dependencies between devices (in particular, between
EHCI USB controllers and their OHCI/UHCI siblings) which are not
reflected by the structure of the device tree. With synchronous
suspend and resume these dependencies are taken into accout
automatically, because the devices in question are always registered
in the right order, but to meet these constraints with asynchronous
suspend and resume the drivers of these devices will need to use
dpm_wait() in their suspend/resume routines, so introduce a helper
function allowing them to do that.

Add configuration switch CONFIG_PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG for compiling in
extra PM debugging/testing code allowing one to access some
PM-related attributes of devices from the user space via sysfs.
If CONFIG_PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG is set, add sysfs attribute power/async
for every device allowing the user space to access the device's
power.async_suspend flag and modify it, if desired.

Theoretically, the total time of system sleep transitions (suspend
to RAM, hibernation) can be reduced by running suspend and resume
callbacks of device drivers in parallel with each other. However,
there are dependencies between devices such that we're not allowed
to suspend the parent of a device before suspending the device
itself. Analogously, we're not allowed to resume a device before
resuming its parent.
The most straightforward way to take these dependencies into accout
is to start the async threads used for suspending and resuming
devices at the core level, so that async_schedule() is called for
each suspend and resume callback supposed to be executed
asynchronously.
For this purpose, introduce a new device flag, power.async_suspend,
used to mark the devices whose suspend and resume callbacks are to be
executed asynchronously (ie. in parallel with the main suspend/resume
thread and possibly in parallel with each other) and helper function
device_enable_async_suspend() allowing one to set power.async_suspend
for given device (power.async_suspend is unset by default for all
devices). For each device with the power.async_suspend flag set the
PM core will use async_schedule() to execute its suspend and resume
callbacks.
The async threads started for different devices as a result of
calling async_schedule() are synchronized with each other and with
the main suspend/resume thread with the help of completions, in the
following way:
(1) There is a completion, power.completion, for each device object.
(2) Each device's completion is reset before calling async_schedule()
for the device or, in the case of devices with the
power.async_suspend flags unset, before executing the device's
suspend and resume callbacks.
(3) During suspend, right before running the bus type, device type
and device class suspend callbacks for the device, the PM core
waits for the completions of all the device's children to be
completed.
(4) During resume, right before running the bus type, device type and
device class resume callbacks for the device, the PM core waits
for the completion of the device's parent to be completed.
(5) The PM core completes power.completion for each device right
after the bus type, device type and device class suspend (or
resume) callbacks executed for the device have returned.

space to block the run-time power management of the devices. If this

manage it at run time (without breaking the rules) and the device will
always be in the full power state (except when the entire system goes

This change attempts to fix the ivtv tinny audio problem by keeping digitizer
to encoder audio clocks running, while disabling the video clocks as needed to
avoid unpredictable PCI bus hangs.
To accomplish this, for the cx25840 module enabling of audio streaming had
to be separated from enabling video streaming, requiring an additional
v4l2_subdev_audio_op and calls to this new op in the pvrusb2 and ivtv drivers.
The cx231xx and cx23885 driver use the cx25840 module for affecting only
video on s_stream calls, so those drivers needed no change.
The CX23418 hardware does not exhibit either the tinny audio problem nor the PCI
bus hang, so the cx18 driver did not need corresponding changes.
CX2341[56] based cards that are not using the CX2584x family of chips
do not seem to be affected by the tinny audio problem, and this change should
not affect how they are configured. It will delay their first capture by
starting by another 300 msec though.
Many thanks go to Argus <pthorn-ivtvd@styx2002.no-ip.org> and
Martin Dauskardt <martin.dauskardt@gmx.de> whose persistent testing and
investigation of this problem will hopefully fix this problem once and for all

This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this
feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for
that device. New ports are spawned according to this information.
The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be
spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the
appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be
hot-plugged in later.
Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to
hvc consoles.
We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via
which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether
the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window,
etc.
Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char
devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.
