Several conflicts here. NFP driver bug fix adding nfp_netdev_is_nfp_repr() check to nfp_fl_output() needed some adjustments because the code block is in an else block now. Parallel additions to net/pkt_cls.h and net/sch_generic.h A bug fix in __tcp_retransmit_skb() conflicted with some of the rbtree changes in net-next. The tc action RCU callback fixes in 'net' had some overlap with some of the recent tcf_block reworking. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Input: do not use property bits when generating module alias

2017-10-22T19:49:59Z

The commit 8724ecb07229 ("Input: allow matching device IDs on property bits") started using property bits when generating module aliases for input handlers, but did not adjust the generation of MODALIAS attribute on input device uevents, breaking automatic module loading. Given that no handler currently uses property bits in their module tables, let's revert this part of the commit for now.

There were quite a few overlapping sets of changes here. Daniel's bug fix for off-by-ones in the new BPF branch instructions, along with the added allowances for "data_end > ptr + x" forms collided with the metadata additions. Along with those three changes came veritifer test cases, which in their final form I tried to group together properly. If I had just trimmed GIT's conflict tags as-is, this would have split up the meta tests unnecessarily. In the socketmap code, a set of preemption disabling changes overlapped with the rename of bpf_compute_data_end() to bpf_compute_data_pointers(). Changes were made to the mv88e6060.c driver set addr method which got removed in net-next. The hyperv transport socket layer had a locking change in 'net' which overlapped with a change of socket state macro usage in 'net-next'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

thunderbolt: Add support for XDomain discovery protocol

2017-10-02T18:24:41Z

When two hosts are connected over a Thunderbolt cable, there is a protocol they can use to communicate capabilities supported by the host. The discovery protocol uses automatically configured control channel (ring 0) and is build on top of request/response transactions using special XDomain primitives provided by the Thunderbolt base protocol. The capabilities consists of a root directory block of basic properties used for identification of the host, and then there can be zero or more directories each describing a Thunderbolt service and its capabilities. Once both sides have discovered what is supported the two hosts can setup high-speed DMA paths and transfer data to the other side using whatever protocol was agreed based on the properties. The software protocol used to communicate which DMA paths to enable is service specific. This patch adds support for the XDomain discovery protocol to the Thunderbolt bus. We model each remote host connection as a Linux XDomain device. For each Thunderbolt service found supported on the XDomain device, we create Linux Thunderbolt service device which Thunderbolt service drivers can then bind to based on the protocol identification information retrieved from the property directory describing the service. This code is based on the work done by Amir Levy and Michael Jamet.

staging: fsl-mc: add support for device table matching

2016-06-27T00:14:03Z

Move the definition of fsl_mc_device_id to its proper location in mod_devicetable.h, and add fsl-mc bus support to devicetable-offsets.c and file2alias.c to enable device table matching. With this patch udev based module loading of fsl-mc drivers is supported. Signed-off-by: Stuart Yoder Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

of: fix autoloading due to broken modalias with no 'compatible'

2016-06-08T00:40:20Z

Because of an improper dereference, a stray 'C' character was output to the modalias when no 'compatible' was specified. This is the case for some old PowerMac drivers which only set the 'name' property. Fix it to let them match again.

modpost: fix module autoloading for OF devices with generic compatible property

2016-05-06T00:38:53Z

Since the wildcard at the end of OF module aliases is gone, autoloading of modules that don't match a device's last (most generic) compatible value fails. For example the CODA960 VPU on i.MX6Q has the SoC specific compatible "fsl,imx6q-vpu" and the generic compatible "cnm,coda960". Since the driver currently only works with knowledge about the SoC specific integration, it doesn't list "cnm,cod960" in the module device table. This results in the device compatible "of:NvpuTCfsl,imx6q-vpuCcnm,coda960" not matching the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu" anymore, whereas before commit 2f632369ab79 ("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") it matched the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu*". This patch adds two module aliases for each compatible, one without the wildcard and one with "C*" appended. $ modinfo coda | grep imx6q alias: of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpuC* alias: of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu Fixes: 2f632369ab79 ("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1462203339-15340-1-git-send-email-p.zabel@pengutronix.de Signed-off-by: Philipp Zabel Cc: Javier Martinez Canillas Cc: Brian Norris Cc: Sjoerd Simons Cc: Rusty Russell Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: [4.5+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases

2016-01-15T00:00:49Z

Commit ac551828993e ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard") removed the wildcard at the end of the I2C module aliases because I2C devices have no IDs so the aliases are just arbitrary device names. This is also true for OF modaliases since a compatible string is used to define a specific IP hardware block. So the modalias should match a specific compatible string and not attempt to match a compatible string whose name matches the beginning of another one. For example, the following driver module: $ modinfo cros_ec_keyb | grep alias alias: platform:cros-ec-keyb alias: of:N*T*Cgoogle,cros-ec-keyb* will be tried to be loaded for an alias of:N*T*Cgoogle,cros-ec-keyb-v2 but there could be a different driver that supports the device for that compatible string so it's better to remove the trailing wildcard for OF. Also, remove the word "always" from the add_wildcard() function comment since that was carried from the time where a wildcard was always added at the end of the module alias for all the devices.
