[RFKILL]: Move rfkill_switch_all out of global header rfkill_switch_all shouldn't be called by drivers directly, instead they should send a signal over the input device. To prevent confusion for driver developers, move the function into a rfkill private header. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

device.h: audit and cleanup users in main include dir The <linux/device.h> header includes a lot of stuff, and it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device" which appears so often. Clean up the users as follows: 1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that. 2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply delete the include altogether. 3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h 4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding the required header(s). Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be present have already been dealt with in advance. Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7. As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/* Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: add __must_check annotations rfkill is not a small, mere detail in wireless support. Once it starts supporting rfkill and users start counting on that support, a wireless device is at risk of operating in dangerous conditions should rfkill support fail to properly activate. Therefore, add the required __must_check annotations on some key functions of the rfkill API, for which the wireless drivers absolutely MUST handle the failure mode safely in order to avoid a potentially dangerous situation where the wireless transmitter is left enabled when the user don't want it to.

Rename RFKILL_STATE_OFF to RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED (transmitter is blocked and will not operate; state can be changed by a toggle_radio request), and RFKILL_STATE_ON to RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED (transmitter is not blocked, and may operate). Also, add a new third state, RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED (transmitter is blocked and will not operate; state cannot be changed through a toggle_radio request), which is used by drivers to indicate a wireless transmiter was blocked by a hardware rfkill line that accepts no overrides. Keep the old names as #defines, but document them as deprecated. This way, drivers can be converted to the new names *and* verified to actually use rfkill correctly one by one.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration. Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway.

rfkill: rewrite This patch completely rewrites the rfkill core to address the following deficiencies: * all rfkill drivers need to implement polling where necessary rather than having one central implementation * updating the rfkill state cannot be done from arbitrary contexts, forcing drivers to use schedule_work and requiring lots of code * rfkill drivers need to keep track of soft/hard blocked internally -- the core should do this * the rfkill API has many unexpected quirks, for example being asymmetric wrt. alloc/free and register/unregister * rfkill can call back into a driver from within a function the driver called -- this is prone to deadlocks and generally should be avoided * rfkill-input pointlessly is a separate module * drivers need to #ifdef rfkill functions (unless they want to depend on or select RFKILL) -- rfkill should provide inlines that do nothing if it isn't compiled in * the rfkill structure is not opaque -- drivers need to initialise it correctly (lots of sanity checking code required) -- instead force drivers to pass the right variables to rfkill_alloc() * the documentation is hard to read because it always assumes the reader is completely clueless and contains way TOO MANY CAPS * the rfkill code needlessly uses a lot of locks and atomic operations in locked sections * fix LED trigger to actually change the LED when the radio state changes -- this wasn't done before Tested-by: Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> [thinkpad] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration. Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

rfkill: add function to query state Sometimes it is necessary to know how the state is, and it is easier to query rfkill than keep track of it somewhere else, so add a function for that. This could later be expanded to return hard/soft block, but so far that isn't necessary. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

rfkill: define rfill_soft_blocked() if !RFKILL If CONFIG_RFKILL is not set, the Intel WiFi driver will not build the iw_mvm driver part due to the missing rfill_soft_blocked() call.
