PCI: Add pci_iomap_wc() variants
PCI BARs tell us whether prefetching is safe, but they don't say
anything about write combining (WC). WC changes ordering rules
and allows writes to be collapsed, so it's not safe in general
to use it on a prefetchable region.
Add pci_iomap_wc() and pci_iomap_wc_range() so drivers can take
advantage of write combining when they know it's safe.
On architectures that don't fully support WC, e.g., x86 without
PAT, drivers for legacy framebuffers may get some of the benefit
by using arch_phys_wc_add() in addition to pci_iomap_wc(). But
arch_phys_wc_add() is unreliable and should be avoided in
general. On x86, it uses MTRRs, which are limited in number and
size, so the results will vary based on driver loading order.
The goals of adding pci_iomap_wc() are to:
- Give drivers an architecture-independent way to use WC so they can stop
using interfaces like mtrr_add() (on x86, pci_iomap_wc() uses
PAT when available).
- Move toward using _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC, not _PAGE_CACHE_MODE_UC_MINUS,
on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see

kbuild: Fix .text.unlikely placement
When building a kernel with .text.unlikely text the unlikely text for each translation unit was put next to the main .text code in the final vmlinux. The problem is that the linker doesn't allow more specific submatches of a section name in a different linker script statement after the main match. So we need to move them all into one line. With that change .text.unlikely is at the end of everything again. I also moved .text.hot into the same statement though, even though that's not strictly needed.

locking/qrwlock: Make use of _{acquire|release|relaxed}() atomics
The qrwlock implementation is slightly heavy in its use of memory barriers, mainly through the use of _cmpxchg() and _return() atomics, which imply full barrier semantics. This patch modifies the qrwlock code to use the more relaxed atomic routines so that we can reduce the unnecessary barrier overhead on weakly-ordered architectures.

sched/preempt: Fix cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq()
These functions check should_resched() before unlocking spinlock/bh-enable:
preempt_count always non-zero => should_resched() always returns false.
cond_resched_lock() worked iff spin_needbreak is set.
This patch adds argument "preempt_offset" to should_resched().
preempt_count offset constants for that:
PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET - offset after preempt_disable()
PREEMPT_LOCK_OFFSET - offset after spin_lock()
SOFTIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET - offset after local_bh_distable()

x86/mm, asm-generic: Add IOMMU ioremap_uc() variant default
We currently have no safe way of currently defining architecture
agnostic IOMMU ioremap_*() variants. The trend is for folks to
*assume* that ioremap_nocache() should be the default everywhere
and then add this mapping on each architectures -- this is not
correct today for a variety of reasons.
We have two options:
1) Sit and wait for every architecture in Linux to get a
an ioremap_*() variant defined before including it upstream.
2) Gather consensus on a safe architecture agnostic ioremap_*()
default.
Approach 1) introduces development latencies, and since 2) will
take time and work on clarifying semantics the only remaining
sensible thing to do to avoid issues is returning NULL on
ioremap_*() variants.
In order for this to work we must have all architectures declare
their own ioremap_*() variants as defined. This will take some
work, do this for ioremp_uc() to set the example as its only
currently implemented on x86. Document all this.
We only provide implementation support for ioremap_uc() as the
other ioremap_*() variants are well defined all over the kernel
for other architectures already.

Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures
Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the generic version, which previously only supported big-endian. Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in any case is also not present for the existing BE-only implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS. Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures that didn't previously have it. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com> |

locking/qrwlock: Better optimization for interrupt context readers
The qrwlock is fair in the process context, but becoming unfair when in the interrupt context to support use cases like the tasklist_lock. The current code isn't that well-documented on what happens when in the interrupt context. The rspin_until_writer_unlock() will only spin if the writer has gotten the lock. If the writer is still in the waiting state, the increment in the reader count will cause the writer to remain in the waiting state and the new interrupt context reader will get the lock and return immediately. The current code, however, does an additional read of the lock value which is not necessary as the information has already been there in the fast path. This may sometime cause an additional cacheline transfer when the lock is highly contended. This patch passes the lock value information gotten in the fast path to the slow path to eliminate the additional read. It also documents the action for the interrupt context readers more clearly.

mm/thp: split out pmd collapse flush into separate functions
Architectures like ppc64 [1] need to do special things while clearing pmd before a collapse. For them this operation is largely different from a normal hugepage pte clear. Hence add a separate function to clear pmd before collapse. After this patch pmdp_* functions operate only on hugepage pte, and not on regular pmd_t values pointing to page table. [1] ppc64 needs to invalidate all the normal page pte mappings we already have inserted in the hardware hash page table. But before doing that we need to make sure there are no parallel hash page table insert going on. So we need to do a kick_all_cpus_sync() before flushing the older hash table entries. By moving this to a separate function we capture these details and mention how it is different from a hugepage pte clear. This patch is a cleanup and only does code movement for clarity. There should not be any change in functionality. Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

This is the big bulk of GPIO changes queued for the v4.2
kernel series:
- A big set of cleanups to the aged sysfs interface from
Johan Hovold. To get these in, v4.1-rc3 was merged into
the tree as the first patch in that series had to go
into stable. This makes the locking much more fine-grained
(get rid of the "big GPIO lock(s)" and store states in the
GPIO descriptors.
- Rename gpiod_[g|s]et_array() to gpiod_[g|s]et_array_value()
to avoid confusions.
- New drivers for:
- NXP LPC18xx (currently LPC1850)
- NetLogic XLP
- Broadcom STB SoC's
- Axis ETRAXFS
- Zynq Ultrascale+ (subdriver)
- ACPI:
- Make it possible to retrieve GpioInt resources from
a GPIO device using acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get()
- Merge some dependent I2C changes exploiting this.
- Support the ARM X-Gene GPIO standby driver.
- Make it possible for the generic GPIO driver to read
back the value set registers to reflect current
status.
- Loads of OMAP IRQ handling fixes.
- Incremental improvements to Kona, max732x, OMAP, MXC, RCAR,
PCA953x, STP-XWAY, PCF857x, Crystalcove, TB10x.
- Janitorial (contification, checkpatch cleanups)

Merge branch 'x86-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
collected into the 'x86/core' topic.
The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
end.
The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
have fewer dependencies).
The main changes in this cycle were:
* x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
Gleixner)
- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)
- Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/platform changes:
- Intel Atom SoC updates
... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
shortlog and the Git log for details"
* 'x86-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (222 commits)
x86/hpet: Use proper hpet device number for MSI allocation
x86/hpet: Check for irq==0 when allocating hpet MSI interrupts
x86/mm/pat, drivers/infiniband/ipath: Use arch_phys_wc_add() and require PAT disabled
x86/mm/pat, drivers/media/ivtv: Use arch_phys_wc_add() and require PAT disabled
x86/platform/intel/baytrail: Add comments about why we disabled HPET on Baytrail
genirq: Prevent crash in irq_move_irq()

gpio: remove gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low
Remove gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low (and gpio_sysfs_set_active_low) which allowed code to change the polarity of a gpio line even after it had been exported through sysfs. Drivers should not care, and generally does not know, about gpio-line polarity which is a hardware feature that needs to be described by firmware. It is currently possible to define gpio-line polarity in device-tree and acpi firmware or using platform data. Userspace can also change the polarity through sysfs. Note that drivers using the legacy gpio interface could still use GPIOF_ACTIVE_LOW to change the polarity before exporting the gpio. There are no in-kernel users of this interface.

x86/mm: Add ioremap_uc() helper to map memory uncacheable (not UC-)
ioremap_nocache() currently uses UC- by default. Our goal is to
eventually make UC the default. Linux maps UC- to PCD=1, PWT=0
page attributes on non-PAT systems. Linux maps UC to PCD=1,
PWT=1 page attributes on non-PAT systems. On non-PAT and PAT
systems a WC MTRR has different effects on pages with either of
these attributes. In order to help with a smooth transition its
best to enable use of UC (PCD,1, PWT=1) on a region as that
ensures a WC MTRR will have no effect on a region, this however
requires us to have an way to declare a region as UC and we
currently do not have a way to do this.
WC MTRR on non-PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=0 (UC-) yields WC.
WC MTRR on non-PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=1 (UC) yields UC.
WC MTRR on PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=0 (UC-) yields WC.
WC MTRR on PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=1 (UC) yields UC.
A flip of the default ioremap_nocache() behaviour from UC- to UC
can therefore regress a memory region from effective memory type
WC to UC if MTRRs are used. Use of MTRRs should be phased out
and in the best case only arch_phys_wc_add() use will remain,
even if this happens arch_phys_wc_add() will have an effect on
non-PAT systems and changes to default ioremap_nocache()
behaviour could regress drivers.
Now, ideally we'd use ioremap_nocache() on the regions in which
we'd need uncachable memory types and avoid any MTRRs on those
regions. There are however some restrictions on MTRRs use, such
as the requirement of having the base and size of variable sized
MTRRs to be powers of two, which could mean having to use a WC
MTRR over a large area which includes a region in which
write-combining effects are undesirable.
Add ioremap_uc() to help with the both phasing out of MTRR use
and also provide a way to blacklist small WC undesirable regions
in devices with mixed regions which are size-implicated to use
large WC MTRRs. Use of ioremap_uc() helps phase out MTRR use by
avoiding regressions with an eventual flip of default behaviour
or ioremap_nocache() from UC- to UC.
Drivers working with WC MTRRs can use the below table to review
and consider the use of ioremap*() and similar helpers to ensure
appropriate behaviour long term even if default
ioremap_nocache() behaviour changes from UC- to UC.
Although ioremap_uc() is being added we leave set_memory_uc() to
use UC- as only initial memory type setup is required to be able
to accommodate existing device drivers and phase out MTRR use.
It should also be clarified that set_memory_uc() cannot be used
with IO memory, even though its use will not return any errors,
it really has no effect.

locking/qspinlock: Optimize for smaller NR_CPUS
When we allow for a max NR_CPUS < 2^14 we can optimize the pending wait-acquire and the xchg_tail() operations. By growing the pending bit to a byte, we reduce the tail to 16bit. This means we can use xchg16 for the tail part and do away with all the repeated compxchg() operations. This in turn allows us to unconditionally acquire; the locked state as observed by the wait loops cannot change. And because both locked and pending are now a full byte we can use simple stores for the state transition, obviating one atomic operation entirely. This optimization is needed to make the qspinlock achieve performance parity with ticket spinlock at light load. All this is horribly broken on Alpha pre EV56 (and any other arch that cannot do single-copy atomic byte stores).

locking/qspinlock: Extract out code snippets for the next patch
This is a preparatory patch that extracts out the following 2 code
snippets to prepare for the next performance optimization patch.
1) the logic for the exchange of new and previous tail code words
into a new xchg_tail() function.
2) the logic for clearing the pending bit and setting the locked bit
into a new clear_pending_set_locked() function.
This patch also simplifies the trylock operation before queuing by
calling queued_spin_trylock() directly.

locking/qspinlock: Add pending bit
Because the qspinlock needs to touch a second cacheline (the per-cpu mcs_nodes[]); add a pending bit and allow a single in-word spinner before we punt to the second cacheline. It is possible so observe the pending bit without the locked bit when the last owner has just released but the pending owner has not yet taken ownership. In this case we would normally queue -- because the pending bit is already taken. However, in this case the pending bit is guaranteed to be released 'soon', therefore wait for it and avoid queueing.

locking/qspinlock: Introduce a simple generic 4-byte queued spinlock
This patch introduces a new generic queued spinlock implementation that can serve as an alternative to the default ticket spinlock. Compared with the ticket spinlock, this queued spinlock should be almost as fair as the ticket spinlock. It has about the same speed in single-thread and it can be much faster in high contention situations especially when the spinlock is embedded within the data structure to be protected. Only in light to moderate contention where the average queue depth is around 1-3 will this queued spinlock be potentially a bit slower due to the higher slowpath overhead. This queued spinlock is especially suit to NUMA machines with a large number of cores as the chance of spinlock contention is much higher in those machines. The cost of contention is also higher because of slower inter-node memory traffic. Due to the fact that spinlocks are acquired with preemption disabled, the process will not be migrated to another CPU while it is trying to get a spinlock. Ignoring interrupt handling, a CPU can only be contending in one spinlock at any one time. Counting soft IRQ, hard IRQ and NMI, a CPU can only have a maximum of 4 concurrent lock waiting activities. By allocating a set of per-cpu queue nodes and used them to form a waiting queue, we can encode the queue node address into a much smaller 24-bit size (including CPU number and queue node index) leaving one byte for the lock. Please note that the queue node is only needed when waiting for the lock. Once the lock is acquired, the queue node can be released to be used later.

TTY/Serial patches for 4.1-rc1
Here's the big tty/serial driver update for 4.1-rc1. It was delayed for a bit due to some questions surrounding some of the console command line parsing changes that are in here. There's still one tiny regression for people who were previously putting multiple console command lines and expecting them all to be ignored for some odd reason, but Peter is working on fixing that. If not, I'll send a revert for the offending patch, but I have faith that Peter can address it.

This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.1 development
cycle:
- A new GPIO hogging mechanism has been added. This can
be used on boards that want to drive some GPIO line high,
low, or set it as input on boot and then never touch it
again. For some embedded systems this is bliss and
simplifies things to a great extent.
- Some API cleanup and closure: gpiod_get_array() and
gpiod_put_array() has been added to get and put GPIOs
in bulk as was possible with the non-descriptor API.
- Encapsulate cross-calls to the pin control subsystem in
<linux/gpio/driver.h>. Now this should be the only header
any GPIO driver needs to include or something is wrong.
Cleanups restricting drivers to this include are welcomed
if tested.
- Sort the GPIO Kconfig and split it into submenus, as
it was becoming and unstructured, illogical and
unnavigatable mess. I hope this is easier to follow.
Menus that require a certain subsystem like I2C can
now be hidden nicely for example, still working on
others.
- New drivers:
- New driver for the Altera Soft GPIO.
- The F7188x driver now handles the F71869 and
F71869A variants.
- The MIPS Loongson driver has been moved to
drivers/gpio for consolidation and cleanup.
- Cleanups:
- The MAX732x is converted to use the GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP
infrastructure.
- The PCF857x is converted to use the GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP
infrastructure.
- Radical cleanup of the OMAP driver.
- Misc:
- Enable the DWAPB GPIO for all architectures. This is
a "hard IP" block from Synopsys which has started to
turn up in so diverse architectures as X86 Quark, ARC
and a slew of ARM systems. So even though it's not an
expander, it's generic enough to be available for all.
- We add a mock GPIO on Crystalcove PMIC after a long
discussion with Daniel Vetter et al, tracing back to
the shootout at the kernel summit where DRM drivers
and sub-componentization was discussed. In this case
a mock GPIO is assumed to be the best compromise
gaining some reuse of infrastructure without making
DRM drivers overly complex at the same time. Let's
see.

seccomp: allow COMPAT sigreturn overrides
Most architectures don't need to do much special for the strict-mode seccomp syscall entries. Remove the redundant headers and reduce the others.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in this update are both some long term fixes and some new
features.
Fixes:
- An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE.
- Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations
- SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation
primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being
visible on SMP builds.
- A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code,
where it corrupts registers. Found by folk getting Linux running
on their cameras.
- Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU
hot-unplug to work.
Features:
- Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations
separately from relocation cases we don't handle.
- Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we
hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the
existing broken interface.)
- Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU.
- Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP.
- Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties.
- Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical
memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the
mask and the implications of changing it.
- Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large
kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link.
- Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to
have never worked in the past on these CPUs.
- Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output
format (hopefully without userspace breaking... let's hope that if
it causes someone a problem, they tell us.)
- Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets.
- Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/
flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this
errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs. This complements
the Versatile Express fix above.
- Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8
CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this
errata is enabled. Also update the help text to indicate that all
r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted.
- Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all
the information which we were already reporting.
- Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running
at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay()
to return immediately, without any wait. Using such a slow timer
is silly.
- VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the
ARM architected timer.
- Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units"
vdso semantic conflict fixed up as per linux-next.

"These are mostly fixes and cleanups all over, although there are a few
items that sort of fall into the new feature category.
First off, we have new callbacks for PM domains that should help us to
handle some issues related to device initialization in a better way.
There also is some consolidation in the unified device properties API
area allowing us to use that inferface for accessing data coming from
platform initialization code in addition to firmware-provided data.

ioremap_pud_range() and ioremap_pmd_range() are changed to create huge I/O mappings when their capability is enabled, and a request meets required conditions -- both virtual & physical addresses are aligned by their huge page size, and a requested range fufills their huge page size. When pud_set_huge() or pmd_set_huge() returns zero, i.e. no-operation is performed, the code simply falls back to the next level. The changes are only enabled when CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined on the architecture. Signed-off-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Cc: "H.

tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values
Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.
For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.
With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:
By adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })
The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

This introduces a new .text.fixup input section that gets emitted together with the .text section for each input object file. Note that *(.text) *(.text.fixup) is not the same as *(.text .text.fixup) and we are looking for the latter, to ensure that fixup snippets that are assembled into a separate section in the object file do not end up out of range for the relative branch instructions it contains if the .text section itself grows very large.

serial: earlycon: Enable earlycon without command line param
Earlycon matching can only be triggered if 'earlycon=...' has been specified on the kernel command line. To workaround this limitation requires tight coupling between arches and specific serial drivers in order to start an earlycon. Devicetree avoids this limitation with a link table that contains the required data to match earlycons. Mirror this approach for earlycon match by name. Re-purpose EARLYCON_DECLARE to generate a table entry which associates name with setup() function. Re-purpose setup_earlycon() to scan this table for an earlycon match, which is registered if found. Declare one "earlycon" early_param, which calls setup_earlycon(). This design allows setup_earlycon() to be called directly with a param string (as if 'earlycon=...' had been set on the command line). Re-registration (either directly or by early_param) is prevented.

ARM: cpuidle: Add a cpuidle ops structure to be used for DT
The current state of the different cpuidle drivers is the different PM operations are passed via the platform_data using the platform driver paradigm. This approach allowed to split the low level PM code from the arch specific and the generic cpuidle code. Unfortunately there are complaints about this approach as, in the context of the single kernel image, we have multiple drivers loaded in memory for nothing and the platform driver is not adequate for cpuidle. This patch provides a common interface via cpuidle ops for all new cpuidle driver and a definition for the device tree. It will allow with the next patches to a have a common definition with ARM64 and share the same cpuidle driver. The code is optimized to use the __init section intensively in order to reduce the memory footprint after the driver is initialized and unify the function names with ARM64.

kernel: add support for .init_array.* constructors
KASan uses constructors for initializing redzones for global variables. Globals instrumentation in GCC 4.9.2 produces constructors with priority (.init_array.00099) Currently kernel ignores such constructors. Only constructors with default priority supported (.init_array) This patch adds support for constructors with priorities. For kernel image we put pointers to constructors between __ctors_start/__ctors_end and do_ctors() will call them on start up. For modules we merge .init_array.* sections into resulting .init_array. Module code properly handles constructors in .init_array section.

mm: remove remaining references to NUMA hinting bits and helpers
This patch removes the NUMA PTE bits and associated helpers. As a
side-effect it increases the maximum possible swap space on x86-64.
One potential source of problems is races between the marking of PTEs
PROT_NONE, NUMA hinting faults and migration. It must be guaranteed that
a PTE being protected is not faulted in parallel, seen as a pte_none and
corrupting memory. The base case is safe but transhuge has problems in
the past due to an different migration mechanism and a dependance on page
lock to serialise migrations and warrants a closer look.
task_work hinting update parallel fault
------------------------ --------------
change_pmd_range
change_huge_pmd
__pmd_trans_huge_lock
pmdp_get_and_clear
__handle_mm_fault
pmd_none
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page
read? pmd_lock blocks until hinting complete, fail !pmd_none test
write? __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page acquires pmd_lock, checks pmd_none
pmd_modify
set_pmd_at
task_work hinting update parallel migration
------------------------ ------------------
change_pmd_range
change_huge_pmd
__pmd_trans_huge_lock
pmdp_get_and_clear
__handle_mm_fault
do_huge_pmd_numa_page
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page
pmd_lock waits for updates to complete, recheck pmd_same
pmd_modify
set_pmd_at
Both of those are safe and the case where a transhuge page is inserted
during a protection update is unchanged. The case where two processes try
migrating at the same time is unchanged by this series so should still be
ok. I could not find a case where we are accidentally depending on the
PTE not being cleared and flushed. If one is missed, it'll manifest as
corruption problems that start triggering shortly after this series is
merged and only happen when NUMA balancing is enabled.

ARM: SoC/iommu configuration for 3.19
The iomm-config branch contains work from Will Deacon, quoting his description:
This series adds automatic IOMMU and DMA-mapping configuration for
OF-based DMA masters described using the generic IOMMU devicetree
bindings. Although there is plenty of future work around splitting up
iommu_ops, adding default IOMMU domains and sorting out automatic IOMMU
group creation for the platform_bus, this is already useful enough for
people to port over their IOMMU drivers and start using the new probing
infrastructure (indeed, Marek has patches queued for the Exynos IOMMU).
The branch touches core ARM and IOMMU driver files, and the respective
maintainers (Russell King and Joerg Roedel) agreed to have the contents
merged through the arm-soc tree. The final version was ready just before
the merge window, so we ended up delaying it a bit longer than the rest,
but we don't expect to see regressions because this is just additional
infrastructure that will get used in drivers starting in 3.20 but is
unused so far.

arch: Add lightweight memory barriers dma_rmb() and dma_wmb()
There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed is an lsync or eieio instruction. This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows: Barrier Call Explanation --------- -------- ---------------------------------- rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb(). Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the CPU and a device. It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to be gained in trying to define such a function.

Merge branch 'irq-irqdomain-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull irq domain updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The real interesting irq updates:
- Support for hierarchical irq domains:
For complex interrupt routing scenarios where more than one
interrupt related chip is involved we had no proper representation
in the generic interrupt infrastructure so far. That made people
implement rather ugly constructs in their nested irq chip
implementations. The main offenders are x86 and arm/gic.
To distangle that mess we have now hierarchical irqdomains which
seperate the various interrupt chips and connect them via the
hierarchical domains. That keeps the domain specific details
internal to the particular hierarchy level and removes the
criss/cross referencing of chip internals. The resulting hierarchy
for a complex x86 system will look like this:
vector mapped: 74
msi-0 mapped: 2
dmar-ir-1 mapped: 69
ioapic-1 mapped: 4
ioapic-0 mapped: 20
pci-msi-2 mapped: 45
dmar-ir-0 mapped: 3
ioapic-2 mapped: 1
pci-msi-1 mapped: 2
htirq mapped: 0
Neither ioapic nor pci-msi know about the dmar interrupt remapping
between themself and the vector domain. If interrupt remapping is
disabled ioapic and pci-msi become direct childs of the vector
domain.
In hindsight we should have done that years ago, but in hindsight
we always know better :)
- Support for generic MSI interrupt domain handling
We have more and more non PCI related MSI interrupts, so providing
a generic infrastructure for this is better than having all
affected architectures implementing their own private hacks.
- Support for PCI-MSI interrupt domain handling, based on the generic
MSI support.
This part carries the pci/msi branch from Bjorn Helgaas pci tree to
avoid a massive conflict. The PCI/MSI parts are acked by Bjorn.
I have two more branches on top of this. The full conversion of x86
to hierarchical domains and a partial conversion of arm/gic"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.
This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest
blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop. Such
bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.
Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() ->
sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug().
There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
isn't much of a nuisance.
This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered
with it, so no messages are expected normally.
- Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y.

asm-generic: asm/io.h rewrite
While there normally is no reason to have a pull request for asm-generic
but have all changes get merged through whichever tree needs them, I do
have a series for 3.19. There are two sets of patches that change
significant portions of asm/io.h, and this branch contains both in order
to resolve the conflicts:
- Will Deacon has done a set of patches to ensure that all architectures
define {read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed() functions or get them by
including asm-generic/io.h. These functions are commonly used on ARM
specific drivers to avoid expensive L2 cache synchronization implied by
the normal {read,write}{b,w,l,q}, but we need to define them on all
architectures in order to share the drivers across architectures and
to enable CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST configurations for them
- Thierry Reding has done an unrelated set of patches that extends
the asm-generic/io.h file to the degree necessary to make it useful
on ARM64 and potentially other architectures.

iommu: provide early initialisation hook for IOMMU drivers
IOMMU drivers must be initialised before any of their upstream devices, otherwise the relevant iommu_ops won't be configured for the bus in question. To solve this, a number of IOMMU drivers use initcalls to initialise the driver before anything has a chance to be probed. Whilst this solves the immediate problem, it leaves the job of probing the IOMMU completely separate from the iommu_ops to configure the IOMMU, which are called on a per-bus basis and require the driver to figure out exactly which instance of the IOMMU is being requested. In particular, the add_device callback simply passes a struct device to the driver, which then has to parse firmware tables or probe buses to identify the relevant IOMMU instance. This patch takes the first step in addressing this problem by adding an early initialisation pass for IOMMU drivers, giving them the ability to store some per-instance data in their iommu_ops structure and store that in their of_node. This can later be used when parsing OF masters to identify the IOMMU instance in question.

asm-generic: Add msi.h
To support MSI irq domains we want a generic data structure for allocation, but we need the option to provide an architecture specific version of it. So instead of playing #ifdef games in linux/msi.h we add a generic header file and let architectures decide whether to include it or to provide their own implementation and provide the required typedef. I know that typedefs are not really nice, but in this case there are no forward declarations required and it's the simplest solution.

mm: Make arch_unmap()/bprm_mm_init() available to all architectures
The x86 MPX patch set calls arch_unmap() and arch_bprm_mm_init() from fs/exec.c, so we need at least a stub for them in all architectures. They are only called under an #ifdef for CONFIG_MMU=y, so we can at least restict this to architectures with MMU support. blackfin/c6x have no MMU support, so do not call arch_unmap(). They also do not include mm_hooks.h or mmu_context.h at all and do not need to be touched. s390, um and unicore32 do not use asm-generic/mm_hooks.h, so got their own arch_unmap() versions. (I also moved um's arch_dup_mmap() to be closer to the other mm_hooks.h functions). xtensa only includes mm_hooks when MMU=y, which should be fine since arch_unmap() is called only from MMU=y code. For the rest, we use the stub copies of these functions in asm-generic/mm_hook.h. I cross compiled defconfigs for cris (to check NOMMU) and s390 to make sure that this works. I also checked a 64-bit build of UML and all my normal x86 builds including PARAVIRT on and off.

x86, mpx: Cleanup unused bound tables
The previous patch allocates bounds tables on-demand. As noted in
an earlier description, these can add up to *HUGE* amounts of
memory. This has caused OOMs in practice when running tests.
This patch adds support for freeing bounds tables when they are no
longer in use.
There are two types of mappings in play when unmapping tables:
1. The mapping with the actual data, which userspace is
munmap()ing or brk()ing away, etc...
2. The mapping for the bounds table *backing* the data
(is tagged with VM_MPX, see the patch "add MPX specific
mmap interface").
If userspace use the prctl() indroduced earlier in this patchset
to enable the management of bounds tables in kernel, when it
unmaps the first type of mapping with the actual data, the kernel
needs to free the mapping for the bounds table backing the data.
This patch hooks in at the very end of do_unmap() to do so.
We look at the addresses being unmapped and find the bounds
directory entries and tables which cover those addresses. If
an entire table is unused, we clear associated directory entry
and free the table.
Once we unmap the bounds table, we would have a bounds directory
entry pointing at empty address space. That address space might
now be allocated for some other (random) use, and the MPX
hardware might now try to walk it as if it were a bounds table.
That would be bad. So any unmapping of an enture bounds table
has to be accompanied by a corresponding write to the bounds
directory entry to invalidate it. That write to the bounds
directory can fault, which causes the following problem:
Since we are doing the freeing from munmap() (and other paths
like it), we hold mmap_sem for write. If we fault, the page
fault handler will attempt to acquire mmap_sem for read and
we will deadlock. To avoid the deadlock, we pagefault_disable()
when touching the bounds directory entry and use a
get_user_pages() to resolve the fault.
The unmapping of bounds tables happends under vm_munmap(). We
also (indirectly) call vm_munmap() to _do_ the unmapping of the
bounds tables. We avoid unbounded recursion by disallowing
freeing of bounds tables *for* bounds tables. This would not
occur normally, so should not have any practical impact. Being
strict about it here helps ensure that we do not have an
exploitable stack overflow.

x86, mpx: On-demand kernel allocation of bounds tables
This is really the meat of the MPX patch set. If there is one patch to review in the entire series, this is the one. There is a new ABI here and this kernel code also interacts with userspace memory in a relatively unusual manner. (small FAQ below). Long Description: This patch adds two prctl() commands to provide enable or disable the management of bounds tables in kernel, including on-demand kernel allocation (See the patch "on-demand kernel allocation of bounds tables") and cleanup (See the patch "cleanup unused bound tables"). Applications do not strictly need the kernel to manage bounds tables and we expect some applications to use MPX without taking advantage of this kernel support. This means the kernel can not simply infer whether an application needs bounds table management from the MPX registers. The prctl() is an explicit signal from userspace. PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT is meant to be a signal from userspace to require kernel's help in managing bounds tables. PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT is the opposite, meaning that userspace don't want kernel's help any more. With PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT, the kernel won't allocate and free bounds tables even if the CPU supports MPX. PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT will fetch the base address of the bounds directory out of a userspace register (bndcfgu) and then cache it into a new field (->bd_addr) in the 'mm_struct'. PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT will set "bd_addr" to an invalid address. Using this scheme, we can use "bd_addr" to determine whether the management of bounds tables in kernel is enabled. Also, the only way to access that bndcfgu register is via an xsaves, which can be expensive. Caching "bd_addr" like this also helps reduce the cost of those xsaves when doing table cleanup at munmap() time. Unfortunately, we can not apply this optimization to #BR fault time because we need an xsave to get the value of BNDSTATUS. ==== Why does the hardware even have these Bounds Tables? ==== MPX only has 4 hardware registers for storing bounds information. If MPX-enabled code needs more than these 4 registers, it needs to spill them somewhere. It has two special instructions for this which allow the bounds to be moved between the bounds registers and some new "bounds tables". They are similar conceptually to a page fault and will be raised by the MPX hardware during both bounds violations or when the tables are not present. This patch handles those #BR exceptions for not-present tables by carving the space out of the normal processes address space (essentially calling the new mmap() interface indroduced earlier in this patch set.) and then pointing the bounds-directory over to it. The tables *need* to be accessed and controlled by userspace because the instructions for moving bounds in and out of them are extremely frequent. They potentially happen every time a register pointing to memory is dereferenced. Any direct kernel involvement (like a syscall) to access the tables would obviously destroy performance. ==== Why not do this in userspace? ==== This patch is obviously doing this allocation in the kernel. However, MPX does not strictly *require* anything in the kernel. It can theoretically be done completely from userspace. Here are a few ways this *could* be done. I don't think any of them are practical in the real-world, but here they are. Q: Can virtual space simply be reserved for the bounds tables so that we never have to allocate them? A: As noted earlier, these tables are *HUGE*. An X-GB virtual area needs 4*X GB of virtual space, plus 2GB for the bounds directory. If we were to preallocate them for the 128TB of user virtual address space, we would need to reserve 512TB+2GB, which is larger than the entire virtual address space today. This means they can not be reserved ahead of time. Also, a single process's pre-popualated bounds directory consumes 2GB of virtual *AND* physical memory. IOW, it's completely infeasible to prepopulate bounds directories. Q: Can we preallocate bounds table space at the same time memory is allocated which might contain pointers that might eventually need bounds tables? A: This would work if we could hook the site of each and every memory allocation syscall. This can be done for small, constrained applications. But, it isn't practical at a larger scale since a given app has no way of controlling how all the parts of the app might allocate memory (think libraries). The kernel is really the only place to intercept these calls. Q: Could a bounds fault be handed to userspace and the tables allocated there in a signal handler instead of in the kernel? A: (thanks to tglx) mmap() is not on the list of safe async handler functions and even if mmap() would work it still requires locking or nasty tricks to keep track of the allocation state there. Having ruled out all of the userspace-only approaches for managing bounds tables that we could think of, we create them on demand in the kernel.

mmu_gather: move minimal range calculations into generic code
On architectures with hardware broadcasting of TLB invalidation messages , it makes sense to reduce the range of the mmu_gather structure when unmapping page ranges based on the dirty address information passed to tlb_remove_tlb_entry. arm64 already does this by directly manipulating the start/end fields of the gather structure, but this confuses the generic code which does not expect these fields to change and can end up calculating invalid, negative ranges when forcing a flush in zap_pte_range. This patch moves the minimal range calculation out of the arm64 code and into the generic implementation, simplifying zap_pte_range in the process (which no longer needs to care about start/end, since they will point to the appropriate ranges already). With the range being tracked by core code, the need_flush flag is dropped in favour of checking that the end of the range has actually been set.
