14 years agobacklight: add low threshold to pwm backlight
Arun Murthy [Thu, 11 Nov 2010 22:05:28 +0000 (14:05 -0800)]
backlight: add low threshold to pwm backlight

The intensity of the backlight can be varied from a range of
max_brightness to zero.  Though most, if not all the pwm based backlight
devices start flickering at lower brightness value.  And also for each
device there exists a brightness value below which the backlight appears
to be turned off though the value is not equal to zero.

If the range of brightness for a device is from zero to max_brightness.  A
graph is plotted for brightness Vs intensity for the pwm based backlight
device has to be a linear graph.

intensity
  |   /
  |  /
  | /
  |/
  ---------
 0 max_brightness

But pratically on measuring the above we note that the intensity of
backlight goes to zero(OFF) when the value in not zero almost nearing to
zero(some x%).  so the graph looks like

intensity
  |    /
  |   /
  |  /
  |  |
  ------------
 0   x  max_brightness

In order to overcome this drawback knowing this x% i.e nothing but the low
threshold beyond which the backlight is off and will have no effect, the
brightness value is being offset by the low threshold value(retaining the
linearity of the graph).  Now the graph becomes

intensity
  |     /
  |    /
  |   /
  |  /
  -------------
   0   max_brightness

With this for each and every digit increment in the brightness from zero
there is a change in the intensity of backlight.  Devices having this
behaviour can set the low threshold brightness(lth_brightness) and pass
the same as platform data else can have it as zero.

14 years agoled-class: always implement blinking
Johannes Berg [Thu, 11 Nov 2010 22:05:21 +0000 (14:05 -0800)]
led-class: always implement blinking

Currently, blinking LEDs can be awkward because it is not guaranteed that
all LEDs implement blinking.  The trigger that wants it to blink then
needs to implement its own timer solution.

Rather than require that, add led_blink_set() API that triggers can use.
This function will attempt to use hw blinking, but if that fails
implements a timer for it.  To stop blinking again, brightness_set() also
needs to be wrapped into API that will stop the software blink.

As a result of this, the timer trigger becomes a very trivial one, and
hopefully we can finally see triggers using blinking as well because it's
always easy to use.

2.  The reader acquires slot(s) for item(s) including the index 0 item.
3.  The non-zero index item is deleted, and as a consequence the other item is

4.  The reader looks at the index 0 slot, and finds that the page has 0 ref

5.  The reader looks at it again, hoping that the item will either be freed or
    the ref count will increase. This never happens, as the slot it is looking
    at will never be updated. Also, this slot can never be reclaimed because
    the reader is holding rcu_read_lock and is in an infinite loop.

mm/vfs: revalidate page->mapping in do_generic_file_read()

70 hours into some stress tests of a 2.6.32-based enterprise kernel, we
ran into a NULL dereference in here:

int block_is_partially_uptodate(struct page *page, read_descriptor_t *desc,
                                        unsigned long from)
{
----> struct inode *inode = page->mapping->host;

It looks like page->mapping was the culprit.  (xmon trace is below).
After closer examination, I realized that do_generic_file_read() does a
find_get_page(), and eventually locks the page before calling
block_is_partially_uptodate().  However, it doesn't revalidate the
page->mapping after the page is locked.  So, there's a small window
between the find_get_page() and ->is_partially_uptodate() where the page
could get truncated and page->mapping cleared.

We _have_ a reference, so it can't get reclaimed, but it certainly
can be truncated.

I think the correct thing is to check page->mapping after the
trylock_page(), and jump out if it got truncated.  This patch has been
running in the test environment for a month or so now, and we have not
seen this bug pop up again.

14 years agokernel/range.c: fix clean_sort_range() for the case of full array

kernel/range.c: fix clean_sort_range() for the case of full array

clean_sort_range() should return a number of nonempty elements of range
array, but if the array is full clean_sort_range() returns 0.

The problem is that the number of nonempty elements is evaluated by
finding the first empty element of the array.  If there is no such element
it returns an initial value of local variable nr_range that is zero.

The fix is trivial: it changes initial value of nr_range to size of the
array.

The bug can lead to loss of information regarding all ranges, since
typically returned value of clean_sort_range() is considered as an actual
number of ranges in the array after a series of add/subtract operations.

rapidio: use resource_size()

both the start and end (end - start + 1).  It's easiest to just use
resource_size() which does the right thing.

I was worried there was something non-standard going on because the
printk() subtracts "end - 1", but the rest of the file uses the normal
resource size calculations.  This function is only called from

there is also:

perf_events: Fix time tracking in samples

This patch corrects time tracking in samples. Without this patch
both time_enabled and time_running are bogus when user asks for
PERF_SAMPLE_READ.

One uses PERF_SAMPLE_READ to sample the values of other counters
in each sample. Because of multiplexing, it is necessary to know
both time_enabled, time_running to be able to scale counts correctly.

In this second version of the patch, we maintain a shadow
copy of ctx->time which allows us to compute ctx->time without
calling update_context_time() from NMI context. We avoid the
issue that update_context_time() must always be called with
ctx->lock held.

We do not keep shadow copies of the other event timings
because if the lead event is overflowing then it is active
and thus it's been scheduled in via event_sched_in() in
which case neither tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running can be modified.

This timing logic only applies to samples when PERF_SAMPLE_READ
is used.

Note that this patch does not address timing issues related
to sampling inheritance between tasks. This will be addressed
in a future patch.

With this patch, the libpfm4 example task_smpl now reports

14 years agoperf trace: live-mode command-line cleanup
Tom Zanussi [Wed, 10 Nov 2010 14:16:51 +0000 (08:16 -0600)]
perf trace: live-mode command-line cleanup

This patch attempts to make the perf trace command-line for live-mode
commands more user-friendly and consistent with other perf commands.

The main change it makes is to allow <commands> to be run as part of
perf trace live-mode commands, as other perf commands do, instead of
the system-wide traces they're currently hard-coded to by the shell
scripts.

With this patch, the following live-mode trace now works as expected:

 $ perf trace rw-by-pid ls -al

The previous system-wide behavior for this command would still be
available by explicitly specifying -a:

 $ perf trace rw-by-pid -a ls -al

and if no <command> is specified, the output is also system-wide:

 $ perf trace rw-by-pid

Because live-mode requires both record and report steps to be invoked,
it isn't always possible to know which args to send to the report and
which to send to the record steps - mainly this is the case for report
scripts with optional args - in those cases it would be necessary to
use separate 'perf trace record' and 'perf trace report' steps.

For example:

 $ perf trace syscall-counts ls

Here we can't decide whether ls should be passed as a param to the
syscall-counts script or whether we should invoke ls as a <command>.
In these cases, we just say that we'll ignore optional script params
and always interpret the extra arguments as a <command>.

If the user instead wants the other interpretation, that can be
accomplished by using separate record and report commands explicitly:

 $ perf trace record syscall-counts
 $ perf trace report syscall-counts ls

So the rules that this patch implements, which seem to make the most
intuitive sense for live-mode commands:

- for commands with optional args and commands with no args, no args
  are sent to the report script, all are sent to the record step

- for 'top' commands i.e. that end with 'top', <commands> can't be
  used - all extra args are send to the report script as params

- for commands with required args, the n required args are taken to be
  the first n args after the script name and sent to the report
  script, and the rest are sent to the record step

14 years agoperf: Fix usages of profile_cpu in builtin-top.c to use cpu_list

perf: Fix usages of profile_cpu in builtin-top.c to use cpu_list

profile_cpu was left over from an earlier implementation that
supported running perf top on a single CPU.  profile_cpu was no
longer set by any switch and usages of it resulted in dead code.

Instead, convert the code to use cpu_list, which is set by the

Also improved the printing of nr_cpus and cpu_list by correcting
the plurals.

As pointed out by Linus, commit dab5855 ("perf_counter: Add mmap event hooks to

merging. Fix the problem by moving perf_event_mmap() hook to
mprotect_fixup().

Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
flags equal to new flags. We don't, however, need to call
perf_event_mmap() there because 'perf' already knows the VMA is
executable.
