Currently the soc-cache code will always write to the device, meaning
that we need the device to be powered and active at pretty much all
times the system is active. Allowing cache only writes lays some

Add a new target for the raw table, which can be used to specify conntrack
parameters for specific connections, f.i. the conntrack helper.
The target attaches a "template" connection tracking entry to the skb, which
is used by the conntrack core when initializing a new conntrack.

In commit 2da31939a4 ("Bluetooth: Implement raw output support for HIDP
layer"), support for Bluetooth hid_output_raw_report was added, but it
pushes the data to the intr socket instead of the ctrl one. This has been
fixed by 6bf8268f9a ("Bluetooth: Use the control channel for raw HID reports")
Still, it is necessary to distinguish whether the report in question should be
either FEATURE or OUTPUT. For this, we have to extend the generic HID API,
so that hid_output_raw_report() callback provides means to specify this
value so that it can be passed down to lower level hardware drivers (currently
Bluetooth and USB).

Split up the IPCT_STATUS event into an IPCT_REPLY event, which is generated

generated when the IPS_ASSURED bit is set.
In combination with a following patch to support selective event delivery,
this can be used for "sparse" conntrack replication: start replicating the
conntrack entry after it reached the ASSURED state and that way it's SYN-flood

Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about
(un)registered events from connector.
Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always
restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base
and none complained, that userspace can not get notification when some
other clients were (un)registered.

perf: Ignore perf.data.old

When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, sched_clock() gets
the time from hardware such as the TSC on x86. In this
configuration kgdb will report a softlock warning message on
resuming or detaching from a debug session.
Sequence of events in the problem case:
1) "cpu sched clock" and "hardware time" are at 100 sec prior
to a call to kgdb_handle_exception()
2) Debugger waits in kgdb_handle_exception() for 80 sec and on
exit the following is called ... touch_softlockup_watchdog() -->
__raw_get_cpu_var(touch_timestamp) = 0;
3) "cpu sched clock" = 100s (it was not updated, because the
interrupt was disabled in kgdb) but the "hardware time" = 180 sec
4) The first timer interrupt after resuming from
kgdb_handle_exception updates the watchdog from the "cpu sched clock"
update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() -->
softlockup_tick() --> check (touch_timestamp == 0) (it is "YES"
here, we have set "touch_timestamp = 0" at kgdb) -->
__touch_softlockup_watchdog() ***(A)--> reset "touch_timestamp"
to "get_timestamp()" (Here, the "touch_timestamp" will still be
set to 100s.) ...
scheduler_tick() ***(B)--> sched_clock_tick() (update "cpu sched
clock" to "hardware time" = 180s) ... }
5) The Second timer interrupt handler appears to have a large
jump and trips the softlockup warning.
update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() -->
softlockup_tick() --> "cpu sched clock" - "touch_timestamp" =
180s-100s > 60s --> printk "soft lockup error messages" ... }
note: ***(A) reset "touch_timestamp" to
"get_timestamp(this_cpu)"
Why is "touch_timestamp" 100 sec, instead of 180 sec?
When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, the call trace of
get_timestamp() is:
get_timestamp(this_cpu)
-->cpu_clock(this_cpu)
-->sched_clock_cpu(this_cpu)
-->__update_sched_clock(sched_clock_data, now)
The __update_sched_clock() function uses the GTOD tick value to
create a window to normalize the "now" values. So if "now"
value is too big for sched_clock_data, it will be ignored.
The fix is to invoke sched_clock_tick() to update "cpu sched
clock" in order to recover from this state. This is done by
introducing the function touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync(). This
allows kgdb to request that the sched clock is updated when the
watchdog thread runs the first time after a resume from kgdb.

Current implementation of Mac mouse button emulation plugs into legacy
keyboard driver, converts certain keys into button events on a separate
device, and suppresses the real events from reaching tty. This worked
well enough until user space started using evdev which was completely
unaware of this arrangement and kept sending original key presses to
its users. Change the implementation to use newly added input filter
framework so that original key presses are not transmitted to any
handlers.
As a bonus remove SYSCTL dependencies from the code and use Kconfig
instead; also do not create the emulated mouse device until user
activates emulation.

Sometimes it is desirable to suppress certain events from reaching
input handlers and thus user space. One such example is Mac mouse
button emulation code which catches certain key presses and converts
them into button clicks as if they were emitted by a virtual mouse.
The original key press events should be completely suppressed,
otherwise user space will be confused, and while keyboard driver
does it on its own evdev is blissfully unaware of this arrangement.
This patch adds notion of 'filter' to the standard input handlers,
which may flag event as filtered thus preventing it from reaching
other input handlers. Filters don't (nor will they ever) have a
notion of priority relative to each other, input core will run all
of them first and any one of them may mark event as filtered.
This patch is inspired by similar patch by Matthew Garret but the
implementation and intended usage are quite different.

This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the
kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw
breakpoint reservations.
The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it
can start the kernel running from an invalid context.
A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get
created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint
reservations.
The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently
processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is
improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the
hardware breakpoint reservations.
Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it
will be a system wide reservation.

'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.
Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.
As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.
This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.

In struct device_node, the phandle is named 'linux_phandle' for PowerPC
and MicroBlaze, and 'node' for SPARC. There is no good reason for the
difference, it is just an artifact of the code diverging over a couple
of years. This patch renames both to simply .phandle.
Note: the .node also existed in PowerPC/MicroBlaze, but the only user
seems to be arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/pfunc_core.c. It doesn't
look like the assignment between .linux_phandle and .node is
significantly different enough to warrant the separate code paths
unless ibm,phandle properties actually appear in Apple device trees.
I think it is safe to eliminate the old .node property and use
phandle everywhere.

It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation
flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory
allocations are that populate a address space.
In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do
a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically
shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight. This
allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a
per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space
gfp policy.
The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper
functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code
is what most of the patch is all about.
