During initialization, the VF counts its rings by walking the TQDLOC
registers. This works only if the TQMAP/RQMAP registers are set to map
all of the out-of-bound rings back to the first one. This allows the VF
to cleanly detect when it has run out of queues. Update the PF code so
that it resets the empty TQMAP/RQMAP registers post-VFLR to prevent
innocent VF drivers from triggering malicious driver events.

Currently, we don't notify the switch at all when the PF
administratively sets a new VLAN or MAC address. This causes the old
addresses to remain valid on the switch table. Since the PF is
overriding any configuration done directly by the VF, we choose to
simply re-create the LPORT for the VF. This does mean that all rules for
the VF will be dropped when we set something directly via the PF, but it
prevents some weird issues where the MAC/VLAN table retains some stale
configuration.

This patch cleans up the use of dma_get_required_mask and uses the
simpler dma_set_mask_and_coherent function instead of doing these as
separate steps.
I removed the dma_get_required_mask call because based on some minimal
testing it appears that either (a) we're not doing the right thing with
the call or (b) we don't need it anyways. If the value returned is
<48bits, we'll end up trying with 48 bits anyways. If it's over 48bits,
fm10k can't support that anyways, and we should try 48bits. If 48bits
fails, we'll fallback to 32bits. This cleans up some very funky code.

This prevents a memory leak in fm10k_set_ringparams. The leak occurs
because we go down, change ring parameters, and then come up. However,
fm10k_down on its own is not clearing the Rx rings. Since fm10k_up
assumes the rings are clean we basically drop the buffers and leak a
bunch of memory. Eventually we hit dirty page faults and reboot the
system. This issue does not occur elsewhere because other flows that
involve fm10k_down go through fm10k_close which immediately called
fm10k_free_all_rx_resources which properly cleans the rings.

This patch resolves a bug in the ts_tx_enqueue code responsible for a
NULL pointer dereference and invalid access of the skb list. We
incorrectly freed the actual skb we found instead of our copy. Thus the
skb queue is essentially invalidated. Resolve this by freeing our clone
in the cases where we did not add it to the queue. This also avoids the
skb memory leak caused by failure to free the clone.

This change fixes an issue with adding an invalid multicast address
using the iproute2 tool (ip maddr add <MADDR> dev <dev>). The iproute2
tool and the kernel do not validate or filter the multicast addresses
when adding them to the multicast list. Thus, when synchronizing this
list with an invalid entry, the action will be aborted with an error
since the fm10k driver currently validates the list. Consequently,
multicast entries beyond the invalid one will not be processed and
communicated with the switch via the mailbox. This change makes it so
that invalid addresses will simply be skipped and allows synchronizing
the full list to proceed.

pressing CTRL+z again making it enable the events again, returning to

One may want, for instance, play with:

and:
-z, --zero zero history across updates
Plus CTRL+z to see only the events since last zeroing, etc.

The problem seems to be a race condition, when the application has just
exited. Some/all fds associated with the perf-events (tracepoints) go
into a POLLHUP/ POLLERR state and the mmap region associated with those
events are unmapped (in perf_evlist__filter_pollfd()).
But we go back and do a perf_evlist__mmap_read() which assumes that the
mmaps are still valid and we hit the crash.
If the mapping for an event is released, its refcnt is 0 (and ->base
is NULL), so ensure we have non-zero refcount before accessing the map.
Note that perf-record has a similar logic but unlike perf-trace, the
record__mmap_read_all() checks the evlist->mmap[i].base before accessing
the map.

probe:vfs_open (on vfs_*)
...
probe:vfs_dentry_acceptable (on vfs_*)
probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
#
With this fix:
# perf probe vfs_*
vfs_caches_init_early is out of .text, skip it.
vfs_caches_init is out of .text, skip it.
Added new events:
probe:vfs_fallocate (on vfs_*)
...
probe:vfs_load_quota_inode (on vfs_*)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_load_quota_inode -aR sleep 1
Note that this can be reproduced ONLY IF the vfs_caches_init* is the
last part of matched symbol list. I've checked this happens on

The bug is in perf_event__attr_swap(). It swaps all fields in 'struct
perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or
not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according
to size read from perf.data.
Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without
aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping
attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata.
This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It
adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into
perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.

FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK indicates whether a file_system_type supports
cgroup writeback; however, different super_blocks of the same

filesystem options. This patch replaces FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK with a
per-super_block flag.
super_block->s_flags carries some internal flags in the high bits but
it's exposd to userland through uapi header and running out of space
anyway. This patch adds a new field super_block->s_iflags to carry
kernel-internal flags. It is currently only used by the new
SB_I_CGROUPWB flag whose concatenated and abbreviated name is for
consistency with other super_block flags.

Currently, even when a filesystem doesn't set the FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK

cgroup writeback which is unexpected. This patch ensures that the
foreign inode detection logic stays disabled when inode_cgwb_enabled()
is false by not associating writeback_control's with bdi_writeback's.
This also avoids unnecessary operations in wbc_init_bio(),

This patch attempts to enhance the case of a transfer submitted multiple
times, and where the cost of creating the descriptors chain is not
negligible.
This happens with big video buffers (several megabytes, ie. several
thousands of linked descriptors in one scatter-gather list). In these
cases, a video driver would want to do :
- tx = dmaengine_prep_slave_sg()
- dma_engine_submit(tx);
- dma_async_issue_pending()
- wait for video completion
- read video data (or not, skipping a frame is also possible)
- dma_engine_submit(tx)
=> here, the descriptors chain recalculation will take time
=> the dma coherent allocation over and over might create holes in
the dma pool, which is counter-productive.
- dma_async_issue_pending()
- etc ...
In order to cope with this case, virt-dma is modified to prevent freeing
the descriptors upon completion if DMA_CTRL_ACK flag is set in the
transfer.

If the number_of_areas argument was zero the kernel would crash on
div-by-zero. Add better input validation.

The Stochastic multiqueue (SMQ) policy (vs MQ) offers the promise of
less memory utilization, improved performance and increased adaptability
in the face of changing workloads. SMQ also does not have any
cumbersome tuning knobs.
Users may switch from "mq" to "smq" simply by appropriately reloading a
DM table that is using the cache target. Doing so will cause all of the
mq policy's hints to be dropped. Also, performance of the cache may
degrade slightly until smq recalculates the origin device's hotspots
that should be cached.
In the future the "mq" policy will just silently make use of "smq" and
the mq code will be removed.
