Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- rwsem scalability improvements, phase #2, by Waiman Long, which are
rather impressive:
"On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system with 40 reader
and writer locking threads, the min/mean/max locking operations
done in a 5-second testing window before the patchset were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/1,808/1,810
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/50,344/151,255
After the patchset, they became:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 30,057/31,359/32,741
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 94,466/95,845/97,098"
There's a lot of changes to the locking implementation that makes
it similar to qrwlock, including owner handoff for more fair
locking.
Another microbenchmark shows how across the spectrum the
improvements are:
"With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the
total locking rates (in kops/s) on a 2-socket Skylake system
with equal numbers of readers and writers (mixed) before and
after this patchset were:

8 802 3,622
16 729 3,359
32 319 2,826
64 102 2,744"
The changes are extensive and the patch-set has been through
several iterations addressing various locking workloads. There
might be more regressions, but unless they are pathological I
believe we want to use this new implementation as the baseline
going forward.
- jump-label optimizations by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira: the primary
motivation was to remove IPI disturbance of isolated RT-workload
CPUs, which resulted in the implementation of batched jump-label
updates. Beyond the improvement of the real-time characteristics
kernel, in one test this patchset improved static key update
overhead from 57 msecs to just 1.4 msecs - which is a nice speedup
as well.
- atomic64_t cross-arch type cleanups by Mark Rutland: over the last
~10 years of atomic64_t existence the various types used by the
APIs only had to be self-consistent within each architecture -
which means they became wildly inconsistent across architectures.
Mark puts and end to this by reworking all the atomic64
implementations to use 's64' as the base type for atomic64_t, and
to ensure that this type is consistently used for parameters and
return values in the API, avoiding further problems in this area.
- A large set of small improvements to lockdep by Yuyang Du: type
cleanups, output cleanups, function return type and othr cleanups
all around the place.
- A set of percpu ops cleanups and fixes by Peter Zijlstra.
- Misc other changes - please see the Git log for more details"

Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:
- Improve stop_machine wait logic: replace cpu_relax_yield call in
generic stop_machine function with a weak stop_machine_yield
function. This is overridden on s390, which yields the current cpu to
the neighbouring cpu after a couple of retries, instead of blindly
giving up the cpu to the hipervisor. This significantly improves
stop_machine performance on s390 in overcommitted scenarios.
This includes common code changes which have been Acked by Peter
Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner.
- Improve jump label transformation speed: transform jump labels
without using stop_machine.
- Refactoring of the vfio-ccw cp handling, simplifying the code and
avoiding unneeded allocating/copying.

- Add support for vfio-ap queue interrupt control in the guest. This
includes s390 kvm changes which have been Acked by Christian

- Add protected virtualization support for virtio-ccw.
- Enforce both CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, which allows to

s390 didn't even compile for !CONFIG_SMP.
- Support for special flagged EP11 CPRBs for zcrypt.

Some SCC functions like the QMC requires an extended parameter RAM.
On modern 8xx (ie 866 and 885), SPI area can already be relocated,
allowing the use of those functions on SCC2. But SCC3 and SCC4
parameter RAM collide with SMC1 and SMC2 parameter RAMs.
This patch adds microcode to allow the relocation of both SMC1 and
SMC2, and relocate them at offsets 0x1ec0 and 0x1fc0.
Those offsets are by default for the CPM1 DSP1 and DSP2, but there
is no kernel driver using them at the moment so this area can be
reused.

We used uuid_parse to convert uuid string from device tree to two u64
components. We want to make sure we look at the uuid read from device
tree in an endian-neutral fashion. For now, I am picking little-endian
to be format so that we don't end up doing an additional conversion.
The reason to store in a specific endian format is to enable reading
the namespace created with a little-endian kernel config on a
big-endian kernel. We do store the device tree uuid string as a 64-bit
little-endian cookie in the label area. When booting the kernel we
also compare this cookie against what is read from the device tree.
For this, to work we have to store and compare these values in a CPU
endian config independent fashion.

For Shared Processor LPARs, the POWER Hypervisor maintains a
relatively static mapping of the LPAR processors (vcpus) to physical
processor chips (representing the "home" node) and tries to always
dispatch vcpus on their associated physical processor chip. However,
under certain scenarios, vcpus may be dispatched on a different
processor chip (away from its home node). The actual physical
processor number on which a certain vcpu is dispatched is available to
the guest in the 'processor_id' field of each DTL entry.
The guest can discover the home node of each vcpu through the
H_HOME_NODE_ASSOCIATIVITY(flags=1) hcall. The guest can also discover
the associativity of physical processors, as represented in the DTL
entry, through the H_HOME_NODE_ASSOCIATIVITY(flags=2) hcall.
These can then be compared to determine if the vcpu was dispatched on
its home node or not. If the vcpu was not dispatched on the home node,
it is possible to determine if the vcpu was dispatched in a different
chip, socket or drawer.
Introduce a procfs file /proc/powerpc/vcpudispatch_stats that can be
used to obtain these statistics. Writing '1' to this file enables
collecting the statistics, while writing '0' disables the statistics.
The statistics themselves are available by reading the procfs file. By
default, the DTLB log for each vcpu is processed 50 times a second so
as not to miss any entries. This processing frequency can be changed
through /proc/powerpc/vcpudispatch_stats_freq.

Since we would be introducing a new user of the DTL buffer in a
subsequent patch, we need a way to gatekeep use of the DTL buffer.
The current debugfs interface for DTL allows registering and opening
cpu-specific DTL buffers. Cpu specific files are exposed under
debugfs 'powerpc/dtl/' node, and changing 'dtl_event_mask' in the same
directory enables controlling the event mask used when registering DTL
buffer for a particular cpu.
Subsequently, we will be introducing a user of the DTL buffers that
registers access to the DTL buffers across all cpus with the same event
mask. To ensure these two users do not step on each other, we introduce
a rwlock to gatekeep DTL buffer access. This fits the requirement of the
current debugfs interface wanting to allow multiple independent
cpu-specific users (read lock), and the subsequent user wanting
exclusive access (write lock).

Introduce new helpers for DTL buffer allocation and registration and
have the existing code use those.

When CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is enabled, we always initialize
DTL enable mask to DTL_LOG_PREEMPT (0x2). There are no other places
where the mask is changed. As such, when reading the DTL log buffer
through debugfs, there is no need to save and restore the previous mask
value.
We don't need to save and restore the earlier mask value if
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not enabled. So, remove the field
from the structure as well.
