Xu Yilun bbfb54e7b3 uio: uio_dfl: add userspace i/o driver for DFL bus
This patch supports the DFL drivers be written in userspace. This is
realized by exposing the userspace I/O device interfaces.

The driver now only binds the ether group feature, which has no irq. So
the irq support is not implemented yet.

Damian Hobson-Garcia 0a0c3b5a24 Add new uio device for dynamic memory allocation
This device extends the uio_pdrv_genirq driver to provide limited
dynamic memory allocation for UIO devices.  This allows UIO devices
to use CMA and IOMMU allocated memory regions. This driver is based
on the uio_pdrv_genirq driver and provides the same generic interrupt
handling capabilities.  Like uio_prdv_genirq,
a fixed number of memory regions, defined in the platform device's
.resources field are exported to userpace. This driver adds the ability
to export additional regions whose number and size are known at boot time,
but whose memory is not allocated until the uio device file is opened for
the first time.  When the device file is closed, the allocated memory block
is freed.  Physical (DMA) addresses for the dynamic regions are provided to
the userspace via /sys/class/uio/uioX/maps/mapY/addr in the same way as
static addresses are when the uio device file is open, when no processes
are holding the device file open, the address returned to userspace is
DMA_ERROR_CODE.

Pratheesh Gangadhar f1a304e794 UIO: add PRUSS UIO driver support
This patch implements PRUSS (Programmable Real-time Unit Sub System)
UIO driver which exports SOC resources associated with PRUSS like
I/O, memories and IRQs to user space. PRUSS is dual 32-bit RISC
processors which is efficient in performing embedded tasks that
require manipulation of packed memory mapped data structures and
handling system events that have tight real time constraints. This
driver is currently supported on Texas Instruments DA850, AM18xx and
OMAP-L138 devices.
For example, PRUSS runs firmware for real-time critical industrial
communication data link layer and communicates with application stack
running in user space via shared memory and IRQs.

Michael S. Tsirkin ccb86a6907 uio: add generic driver for PCI 2.3 devices
This adds a generic uio driver that can bind to any PCI device.  First
user will be virtualization where a qemu userspace process needs to give
guest OS access to the device.

Interrupts are handled using the Interrupt Disable bit in the PCI
command register and Interrupt Status bit in the PCI status register.
All devices compliant to PCI 2.3 (circa 2002) and all compliant PCI
Express devices should support these bits.  Driver detects this support,
and won't bind to devices which do not support the Interrupt Disable Bit
in the command register.

It's expected that more features of interest to virtualization will be
added to this driver in the future. Possibilities are: mmap for device
resources, MSI/MSI-X, eventfd (to interface with kvm), iommu.

device.

This device differs from other UIO devices since it uses I/O ports instead of
memory mapped I/O. In order to make it possible for UIO to work with this
device a utility, uioport, can be used to read and write the ports.

uioport is designed to be a setuid program and checks the permissions of
the /dev/uio* node and if the user has write permissions it will use
iopl and out*/in* to access the device.

Magnus Damm c767db0ab4 UIO: generic irq handling for some uio platform devices
This is V3 of uio_pdrv_genirq.c, a platform driver for UIO with
generic IRQ handling code. This driver is very similar to the regular
UIO platform driver, but is only suitable for devices that are
connected to the interrupt controller using unique interrupt lines.

The uio_pdrv_genirq driver includes generic interrupt handling code
which disables the serviced interrupt in the interrupt controller
and makes the user space driver responsible for acknowledging the
interrupt in the device and reenabling the interrupt in the interrupt
controller.

Shared interrupts are not supported since the in-kernel interrupt
handler will disable the interrupt line in the interrupt controller,
and in a shared interrupt configuration this will stop other devices
from delivering interrupts.

Ben Nizette b54f2863a2 UIO: Implement a UIO interface for the SMX Cryptengine
This patch implements a UIO interface for the SMX Cryptengine.

The Cryptengine found on the Nias Digital SMX board is best suited
for a UIO interface.  It is not wired in to the cryptographic API
as the engine handles it's own keys, algorithms, everything.  All
that we know about is that if there's room in the buffer, you can
write data to it and when there's data ready, you read it out again.

There isn't necessarily even any direct correlation between data
going in and data coming out again, the engine may consume or
generate data all on its own.

This driver is for proprietary hardware but we're always told to
submit the drivers anyway; here you are.  :-)

This is version 4 of this patch and addresses all issues raised by
Hans-Jürgen Koch and Paul Mundt in their reviews.  Slightly altered
is Paul's suggestion to use DRV_NAME and DRV_VERSION as the UIO
version and name.  While at the moment they are the same, there
is no reason for them to stay that way.  Nevertheless we now at
least provide a MODULE_VERSION macro to keep modinfo happy.

Hans-Jürgen Koch bc4c4f45ac UIO: Hilscher CIF card driver
this is a patch that adds support for Hilscher CIF DeviceNet and
Profibus cards. I tested it on a Kontron CPX board, and Thomas reviewed
it.

You can find the user space part here:

http://www.osadl.org/projects/downloads/UIO/user/cif-0.1.0.tar.gz

Notes: cif_api.c is the main file you want to look at. It contains the
functions to open, close, mmap and so on. cif_dps.c adds functions
specific to Profibus cards, and cif_dn.c contains functions for
DeviceNet cards.  cif.c is a universal playground, it's just a small
test program.  The user space part of this UIO driver is still work in
progress, and not everything is tested yet. At the moment, the thread in
cif_api.c contains some code that artificially makes the card generate
interrupts, this was added for testing and will be removed later. But
the driver already contains all the functions needed for useful
operation, so it gives a good idea of how such a thing looks like.

For comparison, here's what you get from the manufacturer
(www.hilscher.com) when you ask for a Linux 2.6 driver:

Hans J. Koch beafc54c4e UIO: Add the User IO core code
This interface allows the ability to write the majority of a driver in
userspace with only a very small shell of a driver in the kernel itself.
It uses a char device and sysfs to interact with a userspace process to
process interrupts and control memory accesses.

See the docbook documentation for more details on how to use this
interface.
