ttyprintk: make the printk log level configurable

2018-11-09T16:58:18+00:00

For some use cases it is handy to use a different printk log level than the
default (info) for the messages written to ttyprintk, so add a Kconfig
option similar to what we have for default console loglevel.

Merge tag 'rtc-4.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/abelloni/linux

2018-10-27T16:24:24+00:00

Pull RTC updates from Alexandre Belloni:
 "This cycle, there were mostly non urgent fixes in drivers. I also
  finally unexported the non managed registration.

  Subsystem:

   - non devm managed registration is now removed from the driver API

   - all the unnecessary rtc_valid_tm() calls have been removed

  Drivers:

   - abx80X: watchdog support

   - cmos: fix non ACPI support

   - sc27xx: fix alarm support

   - Remove a possible sysfs race condition for ab8500, ds1307, ds1685,
     isl1208

   - Fix a possible race condition where an irq handler may be called
     before the rtc_device struct is allocated for mt6397, pl030,
     menelaus, armada38x"

2018-09-08T08:10:26+00:00

The old rtc driver is getting in the way of some compat_ioctl
simplification. Looking up the loongson64 git history, it seems
that everyone uses the more modern but compatible RTC_CMOS driver
anyway, so let's remove the special case for loongson64.

random: make CPU trust a boot parameter

2018-09-01T16:51:54+00:00

Instead of forcing a distro or other system builder to choose
at build time whether the CPU is trusted for CRNG seeding via
CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU, provide a boot-time parameter for end users to
control the choice. The CONFIG will set the default state instead.

random: add a config option to trust the CPU's hwrng

2018-07-24T19:43:24+00:00

This gives the user building their own kernel (or a Linux
distribution) the option of deciding whether or not to trust the CPU's
hardware random number generator (e.g., RDRAND for x86 CPU's) as being
correctly implemented and not having a back door introduced (perhaps
courtesy of a Nation State's law enforcement or intelligence
agencies).

This will prevent getrandom(2) from blocking, if there is a
willingness to trust the CPU manufacturer.

docs: Fix some broken references

2018-06-15T21:10:01+00:00

As we move stuff around, some doc references are broken. Fix some of
them via this script:
	./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check --fix

Manually checked if the produced result is valid, removing a few
false-positives.

char: sparc64: Add privileged ADI driver

2018-06-05T18:24:55+00:00

SPARC M7 and newer processors utilize ADI to version and
protect memory.  This driver is capable of reading/writing
ADI/MCD versions from privileged user space processes.
Addresses in the adi file are mapped linearly to physical
memory at a ratio of 1:adi_blksz.  Thus, a read (or write)
of offset K in the file operates upon the ADI version at
physical address K * adi_blksz.  The version information
is encoded as one version per byte.  Intended consumers
are makedumpfile and crash.
