97139d4a6f treewide: remove redundant #include <linux/kconfig.h>
Kernel source files need not include <linux/kconfig.h> explicitly
because the top Makefile forces to include it with:

  -include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h

This commit removes explicit includes except the following:

  * arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h
  * tools/testing/radix-tree/linux/kernel.h

These two are used for host programs.

eec4852543 radix-tree tests: add iteration test
There are four cases I can see where we could end up with a NULL 'slot' in
radix_tree_next_slot().  This unit test exercises all four of them, making
sure that if in the future we have an unsafe path through
radix_tree_next_slot(), we'll catch it.

Here are details on the four cases:

1) radix_tree_iter_retry() via a non-tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_slot().  In this case we currently aren't seeing a bug
because radix_tree_iter_retry() sets

    iter->next_index = iter->index;

which means that in in the else case in radix_tree_next_slot(), 'count' is
zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL
without ever dereferencing 'slot'.

2) radix_tree_iter_retry() via tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_tagged().  This case was giving us NULL pointer
dereferences in testing, and was fixed with this commit:

commit 3cb9185c67 ("radix-tree: fix radix_tree_iter_retry() for tagged
iterators.")

This fix doesn't explicitly check for 'slot' being NULL, though, it works
around the NULL pointer dereference by instead zeroing iter->tags in
radix_tree_iter_retry(), which makes us bail out of the if() case in
radix_tree_next_slot() before we dereference 'slot'.

3) radix_tree_iter_next() via via a non-tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_slot().  This currently happens in shmem_tag_pins()
and shmem_partial_swap_usage().

As with non-tagged iteration, 'count' in the else case of
radix_tree_next_slot() is zero, so we skip over the while() loop and
effectively just return NULL without ever dereferencing 'slot'.

4) radix_tree_iter_next() via tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_tagged().  This happens in shmem_wait_for_pins().

radix_tree_iter_next() zeros out iter->tags, so we end up exiting
radix_tree_next_slot() here:

    if (flags & RADIX_TREE_ITER_TAGGED) {
	    void *canon = slot;

	    iter->tags >>= 1;
	    if (unlikely(!iter->tags))
		    return NULL;

d09ba13110 libnvdimm for 4.9
* PMEM sub-division support: Allow a single PMEM region to be divided
   into multiple namespaces. Originally, ~2 years ago, it was thought that
   partitions of a /dev/pmemX block device could handle sub-allocations of
   persistent memory for different use cases. With the decision to not
   support DAX mappings of raw block-devices, and the genesis of
   device-dax, the need for having multiple pmem-namespace per region has
   grown.
 
 * Device-DAX unified inode: In support of dynamic-resizing of a
   device-dax instance the kernel arranges for all mappings of a
   device-dax node to share the same inode. This allows unmap / truncate /
   invalidation events to affect all instances of the device similar to the
   behavior of mmap on block devices.
 
 * Hardware error scrubbing reworks: The original address-range-scrub +
   badblocks tracking solution allowed clearing entries at the individual
   namespace level, but it failed to clear the internal list of media
   errors maintained at the bus level. The result was that the next scrub
   or namespace disable/re-enable event would restore the cleared
   badblocks, but now that is fixed. The v4.8 kernel introduced an
   auto-scrub-on-machine-check behavior to repopulate the badblocks list.
   Now, in v4.9, the auto-scrub behavior can be disabled and simply arrange
   for the error reported in the machine-check to be added to the list.
 
 * DIMM health-event notification support: ACPI 6.1 defines a
   notification event code that can be send to ACPI NVDIMM devices. A
   poll(2) capable file descriptor for these events can be obtained from
   the nmemX/nfit/flags sysfs-attribute of a libnvdimm memory device.
 
 * Miscellaneous fixes: NVDIMM-N probe error, device-dax build error, and
   a change to dedup the flush hint list to not flush the memory controller
   more than necessary.

14986a34e1 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes is a number of smaller things that have been
  overlooked in other development cycles focused on more fundamental
  change. The devpts changes are small things that were a distraction
  until we managed to kill off DEVPTS_MULTPLE_INSTANCES. There is an
  trivial regression fix to autofs for the unprivileged mount changes
  that went in last cycle. A pair of ioctls has been added by Andrey
  Vagin making it is possible to discover the relationships between
  namespaces when referring to them through file descriptors.

  The big user visible change is starting to add simple resource limits
  to catch programs that misbehave. With namespaces in general and user
  namespaces in particular allowing users to use more kinds of
  resources, it has become important to have something to limit errant
  programs. Because the purpose of these limits is to catch errant
  programs the code needs to be inexpensive to use as it always on, and
  the default limits need to be high enough that well behaved programs
  on well behaved systems don't encounter them.

  To this end, after some review I have implemented per user per user
  namespace limits, and use them to limit the number of namespaces. The
  limits being per user mean that one user can not exhause the limits of
  another user. The limits being per user namespace allow contexts where
  the limit is 0 and security conscious folks can remove from their
  threat anlysis the code used to manage namespaces (as they have
  historically done as it root only). At the same time the limits being
  per user namespace allow other parts of the system to use namespaces.

  Namespaces are increasingly being used in application sand boxing
  scenarios so an all or nothing disable for the entire system for the
  security conscious folks makes increasing use of these sandboxes
  impossible.

  There is also added a limit on the maximum number of mounts present in
  a single mount namespace. It is nontrivial to guess what a reasonable
  system wide limit on the number of mount structure in the kernel would
  be, especially as it various based on how a system is using
  containers. A limit on the number of mounts in a mount namespace
  however is much easier to understand and set. In most cases in
  practice only about 1000 mounts are used. Given that some autofs
  scenarious have the potential to be 30,000 to 50,000 mounts I have set
  the default limit for the number of mounts at 100,000 which is well
  above every known set of users but low enough that the mount hash
  tables don't degrade unreaonsably.

  These limits are a start. I expect this estabilishes a pattern that
  other limits for resources that namespaces use will follow. There has
  been interest in making inotify event limits per user per user
  namespace as well as interest expressed in making details about what
  is going on in the kernel more visible"

8321564a11 selftests/powerpc: Fix build break caused by EXPORT_SYMBOL changes
The changes to make EXPORT_SYMBOL work in asm, specifically commit
9445aa1a30 ("ppc: move exports to definitions"), in the kbuild tree,
breaks some of our selftests.

That is because we symlink the kernel code into the selftest, and shim
the required headers, and we are now missing asm/export.h

So create a minimal export.h to keep the tests building once powerpc and
the kbuild trees are merged.

    If you have debuginfo enabled, try: perf report -s sym,srcline

However this tip only describe a condition to use --sort sym,scrline
options.  So there is lack of explanation in the tip. I think that it
would be better to add a tip that exactly explains the feature of --sort
srcline.

41844e3620 Staging/IIO patches for 4.9-rc1
Here is the big staging and IIO driver pull request for 4.9-rc1.
 
 There are a lot of patches in here, the majority due to the
 drivers/staging/greybus/ subsystem being merged in with full development
 history that went back a few years, in order to preserve the work that
 those developers did over time.  This was done the same way that btrfs
 was merged into the tree, so all should be ok there.
 
 Lots and lots of tiny cleanups happened in the tree as well, due to the
 Outreachy application process and lots of other developers showing up
 for the first time to clean code up.  Along with those changes, we
 deleted a wireless driver, and added a raspberrypi driver (currently
 marked broken), and lots of new iio drivers.
 
 Overall the tree still shrunk with more lines removed than added, about
 10 thousand lines removed in total.  Full details are in the very long
 shortlog below.
 
 All of this has been in the linux-next tree with no issues.  There will
 be some merge problems with other subsystem trees, but those are all
 minor problems and shouldn't be hard to work out when they happen
 (MAINTAINERS and some lustre build problems with the IB tree.)

And furter from me asking for clarification about greybus:
 "Right now there is a phone from Motorola shipping with this code (a
  slightly older version, but the same tree), so even though Ara is not
  alive in the same form, the functionality is happening. We are working
  with the developers of that phone to merge the newer stuff in with
  their fork so they can use the upstream version in future versions of
  their phone product line.

  Toshiba has at least one chip shipping in their catalog that
  needs/uses this protocol over a Unipro link, and rumor has it that
  there might be more in the future.

  There are also other users of the greybus protocols, there is a talk
  next week at ELC that shows how it is being used across a network
  connection to control a device, and previous ELC talks have showed the
  protocol stack being used over USB to drive embedded Linux boards.
  I've also talked to some people who are starting to work to add a host
  controller driver to control arduinos as the greybus PHY protocols are
  very useful to control a serial/i2c/spio/whatever device across a
  random physical link, as it is a way to have a self-describing device
  be attached to a host without needing manual configuration.

  So yes, people are using it, and there is still the chance that it
  will show up in a phone/laptop/tablet/whatever from Google in the
  future as well, the tech isn't dead, even if the original large phone
  project happens to be"

3bccbe20f6 perf intel-pt: Fix MTC timestamp calculation for large MTC periods
The MTC packet provides a 8-bit slice of CTC which is related to TSC by
the TMA packet, however the TMA packet only provides the lower 16 bits
of CTC.  If mtc_shift > 8 then some of the MTC bits are not in the CTC
provided by the TMA packet. Fix-up the last_mtc calculated from the TMA
packet by copying the missing bits from the current MTC assuming the
least difference between the two, and that the current MTC comes after
last_mtc.

51ee6481fa perf intel-pt: Fix estimated timestamps for cycle-accurate mode
In cycle-accurate mode, timestamps can be calculated from CYC packets.
The decoder also estimates timestamps based on the number of
instructions since the last timestamp. For that to work in
cycle-accurate mode, the instruction count needs to be reset to zero
when a timestamp is calculated from a CYC packet, but that wasn't
happening, so fix it.

Before applying patch:

  $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
    r:probe_uprobe_test/doit /home/ravi/uprobe_test:0x00000000000005f0

    r:probe_uprobe_test/doit /home/ravi/uprobe_test:0x00000000000005f8

This is not the case with kretprobes because the kernel itself finds LEP
and probes on it.

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-20161003' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes:

- Allow vendors to provide JSON files describing PMU events, that then
  get parsed to generate C tables that are linked against perf, allowing
  the use of the names in their documentations, such as:

  # perf list l1d

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

  Cache:
    l1d.replacement
         [L1D data line replacements]
    l1d_pend_miss.fb_full
         [Cycles a demand request was blocked due to Fill Buffers inavailability]
    l1d_pend_miss.pending
         [L1D miss oustandings duration in cycles]
    l1d_pend_miss.pending_cycles
         [Cycles with L1D load Misses outstanding]
    l1d_pend_miss.pending_cycles_any
         [Cycles with L1D load Misses outstanding from any thread on physical core]
    l2_trans.l1d_wb
         [L1D writebacks that access L2 cache]

  Pipeline:
    cycle_activity.cycles_l1d_miss
         [Cycles while L1 cache miss demand load is outstanding]
    cycle_activity.cycles_l1d_pending
         [Cycles while L1 cache miss demand load is outstanding]
    cycle_activity.stalls_l1d_miss
         [Execution stalls while L1 cache miss demand load is outstanding]
    cycle_activity.stalls_l1d_pending
         [Execution stalls while L1 cache miss demand load is outstanding]

  The above example was done on a Broadwell based ThinkPad t450s after
  downloading and installing such JSON files which will be added to the
  tools/perf/pmu-events/ directory in a subsequent patchkit.

  Now one can use those names with -e/--event in all 'perf tools'.
  (Andi Kleen, Sukadev Bhattiprolu)

- Add a missing pointer dereference in 'perf probe' (Colin Ian King)

- Add support for building host programs to be used in generating files
  to be used in the build process, such as fixdep and jevents, fixing
  the usage of these features in a cross compilation setup (Jiri Olsa)

7a53eea1f7 Char/Misc driver update for 4.9-rc1
Here's the "big" char and misc driver update for 4.9-rc1.
 
 Lots of little things here, all over the driver tree for subsystems that
 flow through me.  Nothing major that I can discern, full details are in
 the shortlog.
 
 All have been in the linux-next tree with no reported issues.
