x86/numachip: Cleanup Numachip support
Drop unused code and includes in Numachip header files and APIC driver. Additionally, use the 'numachip1' prefix on Numachip1-specific functions; this prepares for adding Numachip2 support in later patches.

KVM: add halt_attempted_poll to VCPU stats
This new statistic can help diagnosing VCPUs that, for any reason, trigger bad behavior of halt_poll_ns autotuning. For example, say halt_poll_ns = 480000, and wakeups are spaced exactly like 479us, 481us, 479us, 481us. Then KVM always fails polling and wastes 10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every 479+481+479+481+479+481+479 = 3359 microseconds. The VCPU then is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without polling. This would show as an abnormally high number of attempted polling compared to the successful polls.

dma-mapping: consolidate dma_set_mask
Almost everyone implements dma_set_mask the same way, although some time that's hidden in ->set_dma_mask methods. This patch consolidates those into a common implementation that either calls ->set_dma_mask if present or otherwise uses the default implementation. Some architectures used to only call ->set_dma_mask after the initial checks, and those instance have been fixed to do the full work. h8300 implemented dma_set_mask bogusly as a no-ops and has been fixed. Unfortunately some architectures overload unrelated semantics like changing the dma_ops into it so we still need to allow for an architecture override for now.

dma-mapping: consolidate dma_supported
Most architectures just call into ->dma_supported, but some also return 1 if the method is not present, or 0 if no dma ops are present (although that should never happeb). Consolidate this more broad version into common code. Also fix h8300 which inorrectly always returned 0, which would have been a problem if it's dma_set_mask implementation wasn't a similarly buggy noop.

dma-mapping: consolidate dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent
Most architectures do not support non-coherent allocations and either
define dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent to their coherent versions or stub
them out.
Openrisc uses dma_{alloc,free}_attrs to implement them, and only Mips
implements them directly.
This patch moves the Openrisc version to common code, and handles the
DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT case in the mips dma_map_ops instance.
Note that actual non-coherent allocations require a dma_cache_sync
implementation, so if non-coherent allocations didn't work on
an architecture before this patch they still won't work after it.

dma-mapping: consolidate dma_{alloc,free}_{attrs,coherent}
Since 2009 we have a nice asm-generic header implementing lots of DMA API functions for architectures using struct dma_map_ops, but unfortunately it's still missing a lot of APIs that all architectures still have to duplicate. This series consolidates the remaining functions, although we still need arch opt outs for two of them as a few architectures have very non-standard implementations. This patch (of 5): The coherent DMA allocator works the same over all architectures supporting dma_map operations. This patch consolidates them and converges the minor differences: - the debug_dma helpers are now called from all architectures, including those that were previously missing them - dma_alloc_from_coherent and dma_release_from_coherent are now always called from the generic alloc/free routines instead of the ops dma-mapping-common.h always includes dma-coherent.h to get the defintions for them, or the stubs if the architecture doesn't support this feature - checks for ->alloc / ->free presence are removed. There is only one magic instead of dma_map_ops without them (mic_dma_ops) and that one is x86 only anyway. Besides that only x86 needs special treatment to replace a default devices if none is passed and tweak the gfp_flags. An optional arch hook is provided for that.

kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code
There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

libnvdimm for 4.3:
1/ Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to
enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX
('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the
'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System
RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will
arrive in a later kernel.
2/ Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of
the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
3/ Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
4/ Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
5/ Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support
for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes.

mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.

Mostly this is just clean ups and micro optimizations.
The changes with more meat are:
o Allowing the trace event filters to filter on CPU number and process ids
o Two new markers for trace output latency were added
(10 and 100 msec latencies)
o Have tracing_thresh filter function profiling time
I also worked on modifying the ring buffer code for some future
work, and moved the adding of the timestamp around. One of my changes
caused a regression, and since other changes were built on top of it
and already tested, I had to operate a revert of that change. Instead
of rebasing, this change set has the code that caused a regression
as well as the code to revert that change without touching the other
changes that were made on top of it.

xen: Use correctly the Xen memory terminologies
Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and confused developers about the expected behavior. For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name. Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN. For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion in xen repo. Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page. Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up will come in follow-up patches.

xen: Make clear that swiotlb and biomerge are dealing with DMA address
The swiotlb is required when programming a DMA address on ARM when a device is not protected by an IOMMU. In this case, the DMA address should always be equal to the machine address. For DOM0 memory, Xen ensure it by have an identity mapping between the guest address and host address. However, when mapping a foreign grant reference, the 1:1 model doesn't work. For ARM guest, most of the callers of pfn_to_mfn expects to get a GFN (Guest Frame Number), i.e a PFN (Page Frame Number) from the Linux point of view given that all ARM guest are auto-translated. Even though the name pfn_to_mfn is misleading, we need to ensure that those caller get a GFN and not by mistake a MFN. In pratical, I haven't seen error related to this but we should fix it for the sake of correctness. In order to fix the implementation of pfn_to_mfn on ARM in a follow-up patch, we have to introduce new helpers to return the DMA from a PFN and the invert. On x86, the new helpers will be an alias of pfn_to_mfn and mfn_to_pfn. The helpers will be used in swiotlb and xen_biovec_phys_mergeable. This is necessary in the latter because we have to ensure that the biovec code will not try to merge a biovec using foreign page and another using Linux memory. Lastly, the helper mfn_to_local_pfn has been renamed to bfn_to_local_pfn given that the only usage was in swiotlb.

mm: send one IPI per CPU to TLB flush all entries after unmapping pages
An IPI is sent to flush remote TLBs when a page is unmapped that was
potentially accesssed by other CPUs. There are many circumstances where
this happens but the obvious one is kswapd reclaiming pages belonging to a
running process as kswapd and the task are likely running on separate
CPUs.
On small machines, this is not a significant problem but as machine gets
larger with more cores and more memory, the cost of these IPIs can be
high. This patch uses a simple structure that tracks CPUs that
potentially have TLB entries for pages being unmapped. When the unmapping
is complete, the full TLB is flushed on the assumption that a refill cost
is lower than flushing individual entries.
Architectures wishing to do this must give the following guarantee.
If a clean page is unmapped and not immediately flushed, the
architecture must guarantee that a write to that linear address
from a CPU with a cached TLB entry will trap a page fault.
This is essentially what the kernel already depends on but the window is
much larger with this patch applied and is worth highlighting. The
architecture should consider whether the cost of the full TLB flush is
higher than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry. An additional
architecture helper called flush_tlb_local is required. It's a trivial
wrapper with some accounting in the x86 case.
The impact of this patch depends on the workload as measuring any benefit
requires both mapped pages co-located on the LRU and memory pressure. The
case with the biggest impact is multiple processes reading mapped pages
taken from the vm-scalability test suite. The test case uses NR_CPU
readers of mapped files that consume 10*RAM.

This is showing that the readers completed 24.40% faster with 29% less
system CPU time. From vmstats, it is known that the vanilla kernel was
interrupted roughly 900K times per second during the steady phase of the
test and the patched kernel was interrupts 180K times per second.
The impact is lower on a single socket machine.

It's still a noticeable improvement with vmstat showing interrupts went
from roughly 500K per second to 45K per second.
The patch will have no impact on workloads with no memory pressure or have
relatively few mapped pages. It will have an unpredictable impact on the
workload running on the CPU being flushed as it'll depend on how many TLB
entries need to be refilled and how long that takes. Worst case, the TLB
will be completely cleared of active entries when the target PFNs were not
resident at all.

Pull locking and atomic updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes in this cycle are:
- Extend atomic primitives with coherent logic op primitives
(atomic_{or,and,xor}()) and deprecate the old partial APIs
(atomic_{set,clear}_mask())
The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across
architectures and with incomplete support. Now every architecture
supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Generic support for 'relaxed atomics':
- _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return()
- atomic_read_acquire()
- atomic_set_release()
This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon)
- Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs,
by introducing a new one:
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);
which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.
Then allow:
static_branch_likely()
static_branch_unlikely()
to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case. To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it
in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra)
- Static key self-tests (by Jason Baron)
- qrwlock optimizations (by Waiman Long)
- small futex enhancements (by Davidlohr Bueso)

- Add support for using several Intel PT features (CYC, MTC packets),
the relevant documentation was updated in:
tools/perf/Documentation/intel-pt.txt
briefly describing those packets, its purposes, how to configure
them in the event config terms and relevant external documentation
for further reading. (Adrian Hunter)
- Introduce support for probing at an absolute address, for user and
kernel 'perf probe's, useful when one have the symbol maps on a
developer machine but not on an embedded system. (Wang Nan)
- Add Intel BTS support, with a call-graph script to show it and PT
in use in a GUI using 'perf script' python scripting with
postgresql and Qt. (Adrian Hunter)
- Allow selecting the type of callchains per event, including
disabling callchains in all but one entry in an event list, to save
space, and also to ask for the callchains collected in one event to
be used in other events. (Kan Liang)
- Beautify more syscall arguments in 'perf trace': (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
* A bunch more translate file/pathnames from pointers to strings.
* Convert numbers to strings for the 'keyctl' syscall 'option'
arg.
* Add missing 'clockid' entries.
- Introduce 'srcfile' sort key: (Andi Kleen)
# perf record -F 10000 usleep 1
# perf report --stdio --dsos '[kernel.vmlinux]' -s srcfile
<SNIP>
# Overhead Source File
26.49% copy_page_64.S
5.49% signal.c
0.51% msr.h
#
It can be combined with other fields, for instance, experiment with
'-s srcfile,symbol'.
There are some oddities in some distros and with some specific
DSOs, being investigated, so your mileage may vary.
- Support per-event 'freq' term: (Namhyung Kim)
$ perf record -e 'cpu/instructions,freq=1234/',cycles -c 1000 sleep 1
$ perf evlist -F
cpu/instructions,freq=1234/: sample_freq=1234
cycles: sample_period=1000
$
- Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname,
showing pathnames instead of pointers in many syscalls in 'perf
trace'. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Stop collecting /proc/kallsyms in perf.data files, saving about
4.5MB on a typical x86-64 system, use the the symbol resolution
routines used in all the other tools (report, top, etc) now that we
can ask libtraceevent to use perf's symbol resolution code.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Allow filtering out of perf's PID via 'perf record --exclude-perf'.
(Wang Nan)
- 'perf trace' now supports syscall groups, like strace, i.e:
$ trace -e file touch file
Will expand 'file' into multiple, file related, syscalls. More
work needed to add extra groups for other syscall groups, and also
to complement what was added for the 'file' group, included as a
proof of concept. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add lock_pi stresser to 'perf bench futex', to test the kernel code
related to FUTEX_(UN)LOCK_PI. (Davidlohr Bueso)
- Let user have timestamps with per-thread recording in 'perf record'
(Adrian Hunter)

x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB
Given that a write-back (WB) mapping plus non-temporal stores is expected to be the most efficient way to access PMEM, update the definition of ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API to imply arch support for WB-mapped-PMEM. This is needed as a pre-requisite for adding PMEM to the direct map and mapping it with struct page. The above clarification for X86_64 means that memcpy_to_pmem() is permitted to use the non-temporal arch_memcpy_to_pmem() rather than needlessly fall back to default_memcpy_to_pmem() when the pcommit instruction is not available. When arch_memcpy_to_pmem() is not guaranteed to flush writes out of cache, i.e. on older X86_32 implementations where non-temporal stores may just dirty cache, ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API is simply disabled. The default fall back for persistent memory handling remains. Namely, map it with the WT (write-through) cache-type and hope for the best. arch_has_pmem_api() is updated to only indicate whether the arch provides the proper helpers to meet the minimum "writes are visible outside the cache hierarchy after memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem()". Code that cares whether wmb_pmem() actually flushes writes to pmem must now call arch_has_wmb_pmem() directly. Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: "H.

nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB
This should result in a pretty sizeable performance gain for reads. For rough comparison I did some simple read testing using PMEM to compare reads of write combining (WC) mappings vs write-back (WB). This was done on a random lab machine. PMEM reads from a write combining mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=100000 100000+0 records in 100000+0 records out 409600000 bytes (410 MB) copied, 9.2855 s, 44.1 MB/s PMEM reads from a write-back mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=1000000 1000000+0 records in 1000000+0 records out 4096000000 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 3.44034 s, 1.2 GB/s To be able to safely support a write-back aperture I needed to add support for the "read flush" _DSM flag, as outlined in the DSM spec: http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf This flag tells the ND BLK driver that it needs to flush the cache lines associated with the aperture after the aperture is moved but before any new data is read. This ensures that any stale cache lines from the previous contents of the aperture will be discarded from the processor cache, and the new data will be read properly from the DIMM. We know that the cache lines are clean and will be discarded without any writeback because either a) the previous aperture operation was a read, and we never modified the contents of the aperture, or b) the previous aperture operation was a write and we must have written back the dirtied contents of the aperture to the DIMM before the I/O was completed. In order to add support for the "read flush" flag I needed to add a generic routine to invalidate cache lines, mmio_flush_range(). This is protected by the ARCH_HAS_MMIO_FLUSH Kconfig variable, and is currently only supported on x86.
