  • A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
    currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:

    | effect | alternative flags
    -+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
    1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
    2| skip in core dump | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
    3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
    4| do not mlock | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP

    This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct. Seems like nobody
    cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
    reduces total_vm showed in proc.

    Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

    remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
    remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

  • Some security modules and oprofile still uses VM_EXECUTABLE for retrieving
    a task's executable file. After this patch they will use mm->exe_file
    directly. mm->exe_file is protected with mm->mmap_sem, so locking stays
    the same.

  • Move actual pte filling for non-linear file mappings into the new special
    vma operation: ->remap_pages().

    Filesystems must implement this method to get non-linear mapping support,
    if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used.

    Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support.

  • When transparent huge pages were introduced, memory compaction and swap
    storms were an issue, and the kernel had to be careful to not make THP
    allocations cause pageout or compaction.

    Now that we have working compaction deferral, kswapd is smart enough to
    invoke compaction and the quadratic behaviour around isolate_free_pages
    has been fixed, it should be safe to remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD.

  • Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
    "This contains pretty many small commits covering fairly large range of
    files in sound/ directory. Partly because of additional API support
    and partly because of constantly developed ASoC and ARM stuff.

    Some highlights:

    - Introduced the helper function and documentation for exposing the
    channel map via control API, as discussed in Plumbers; most of PCI
    drivers are covered, will follow more drivers later

    - Most of drivers have been replaced with the new PM callbacks (if
    the bus is supported)

    - HD-audio controller got the support of runtime PM and the support
    of D3 clock-stop. Also changing the power_save option in sysfs
    kicks off immediately to enable / disable the power-save mode.

    - Another significant code change in HD-audio is the rewrite of
    firmware loading code. Other than that, most of changes in
    HD-audio are continued cleanups and standardization for the generic
    auto parser and bug fixes (HBR, device-specific fixups), in
    addition to the support of channel-map API.

    - Addition of ASoC bindings for the compressed API, used by the
    mid-x86 drivers.

    - Lots of cleanups and API refreshes for ASoC codec drivers and
    DaVinci.

    - Conversion of OMAP to dmaengine.

    - New machine driver for Wolfson Microelectronics Bells.

    - New CODEC driver for Wolfson Microelectronics WM0010.

    - Enhancements to the ux500 and wm2000 drivers

    - A new driver for DA9055 and the support for regulator bypass mode."

  • Pull UBI fastmap changes from Artem Bityutskiy:
    "This pull request contains the UBI fastmap support implemented by
    Richard Weinberger from Linutronix. Fastmap is designed to address
    UBI's slow scanning issues. Namely, it introduces a new on-flash
    data-structure called "fastmap", which stores the information about
    logicalphysical eraseblocks mappings. So now to get this
    information just read the fastmap, instead of doing full scan. More
    information here can be found in Richard's announcement in LKML
    (Subject: UBI: Fastmap request for inclusion (v19)):

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1364922/focus=1369109

    One thing I want to explicitly say is that fastmap did not have large
    enough linux-next exposure. It is partially my fault - I did not
    respond quickly enough. I _really_ apologize for this. But it had
    good testing and disabled by default, so I do not expect that we'll
    break anything.

    Fastmap is declared as experimental so far, and it is off by default.
    We did declare that the on-flash format may be changed. The reason
    for this is that no one used it in real production so far, so there is
    a high risk that something is missing. Besides, we do not have
    user-space tools supporting fastmap so far.

    Nevertheless, I suggest we merge this feature. Many people want UBI's
    scanning bottleneck to be fixed and merging fastmap now should
    accelerate its production use. The plan is to make it bullet-prove,
    somewhat clean-up, and make it the default for UBI. I do not know how
    many kernel releases will it take.

    Basically, I what I want to do for fastmap is something like Linus did
    for btrfs few years ago."

  • Pull late ARM soc platform updates from Olof Johansson:
    "This branch contains updates to OMAP and Marvell platforms (kirkwood,

    merges, so they were kept separate from the rest, and not separated
    into the traditional topics of cleanup/driver/platform features.

    For OMAP, the updates are:
    - Runtime PM conversions for the GPMC and RNG IP blocks
    - Preparation patches for the OMAP common clock framework conversion
    - clkdev alias additions required by other drivers
    - Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) support for OMAP2, 3, and
    non-4430 OMAP4
    - OMAP hwmod code and data improvements
    - Preparation patches for the IOMMU runtime PM conversion
    - Preparation patches for OMAP4 full-chip retention support

    For Kirkwood/Dove/mvebu:
    - New driver for "address decoder controller" for mvebu, which is a
    piece of hardware that configures addressable devices and
    peripherals. First user is the boot rom aperture on armada XP
    since it is needed for SMP support.
    - New device tree bindings for peripherals such as gpio-fan, iconnect
    nand, mv_cesa and the above address decoder controller.
    - Some defconfig updates, mostly to enable new DT boards and a few
    drivers.

  • Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
    "The first part of the media updates for Kernel 3.7.

    This series contain:

    - A major tree renaming patch series: now, drivers are organized
    internally by their used bus, instead of by V4L2 and/or DVB API,
    providing a cleaner driver location for hybrid drivers that
    implement both APIs, and allowing to cleanup the Kconfig items and
    make them more intuitive for the end user;

    - Media Kernel developers are typically very lazy with their duties
    of keeping the MAINTAINERS entries for their drivers updated. As
    now the tree is more organized, we're doing an effort to add/update
    those entries for the drivers that aren't currently orphan;

    - Several DVB USB drivers got moved to a new DVB USB v2 core; the new
    core fixes several bugs (as the existing one that got bitroted).
    Now, suspend/resume finally started to work fine (at least with
    some devices - we should expect more work with regards to it);

    - added multistream support for DVB-T2, and unified the API for
    DVB-S2 and ISDB-S. Backward binary support is preserved;

    - as usual, a few new drivers, some V4L2 core improvements and lots
    of drivers improvements and fixes.

    There are some points to notice on this series:

    1) you should expect a trivial merge conflict on your tree, with the
    removal of Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt: this series
    would be adding two additional entries there. I opted to not
    rebase it due to this recent change;

    2) With regards to the PCTV 520e udev-related breakage, I opted to
    fix it in a way that the patches can be backported to 3.5 even
    without your firmware fix patch. This way, Greg doesn't need to
    rush backporting your patch (as there are still the firmware cache
    and firmware path customization issues to be addressed there).

    I'll send later a patch (likely after the end of the merge window)
    reverting the rest of the DRX-K async firmware request, fully
    restoring its original behaviour to allow media drivers to
    initialize everything serialized as before for 3.7 and upper.

    3) I'm planning to work on this weekend to test the DMABUF patches
    for V4L2. The patches are on my queue for several Kernel cycles,
    but, up to now, there is/was no way to test the series locally.

    I have some concerns about this particular changeset with regards
    to security issues, and with regards to the replacement of the old
    VIDIOC_OVERLAY ioctl's that is broken on modern systems, due to
    GPU drivers change. The Overlay API allows direct PCI2PCI
    transfers from a media capture card into the GPU framebuffer, but
    its API is crappy. Also, the only existing X11 driver that
    implements it requires a XV extension that is not available
    anymore on modern drivers. The DMABUF can do the same thing, but
    with it is promising to be a properly-designed API. If I can
    successfully test this series and be happy with it, I should be
    asking you to pull them next week."

  • Pull ADM Xen support from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:

    Features:
    * Allow a Linux guest to boot as initial domain and as normal guests
    on Xen on ARM (specifically ARMv7 with virtualized extensions). PV
    console, block and network frontend/backends are working.
    Bug-fixes:
    * Fix compile linux-next fallout.
    * Fix PVHVM bootup crashing.

    The Xen-unstable hypervisor (so will be 4.3 in a ~6 months), supports
    ARMv7 platforms.

    The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware
    as much as possible. That means use as little as possible of PV
    operations (so no PV MMU) - and use existing PV drivers for I/Os
    (network, block, console, etc). This is similar to how PVHVM guests
    operate in X86 platform nowadays - except that on ARM there is no need
    for QEMU. The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen
    drivers and infrastructure.

    Details on how to compile/boot/etc are available at this Wiki:

    http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARMv7_with_Virtualization_Extensions

    and this blog has links to a technical discussion/presentations on the

  • Add support to export the device description obtained from the ACPI _STR
    method, if one exists for a device, to user-space via a sysfs interface.
    This new interface provides a standard and platform neutral way for users
    to obtain the description text stored in the ACPI _STR method. If no
    _STR method exists for the device, no sysfs 'description' file will be
    created. The 'description' file will be located in the /sys/devices/
    directory using the device's path.

    /sys/device///.../firmware_node/description

    Example:

    /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00.07.0/0000:0e:00.0/firmware_node/description

    It can also be located using the ACPI device path, for example:

    /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/ACPI0004:00/PNP0A08:00/device:13/device:15/description
    /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/ACPI0004:00/ACPI0004:01/ACPI0007:02/description

    Execute the 'cat' command on the 'description' file to obtain the
    description string for that device.

    This patch also includes documentation describing how the new sysfs
    interface works

    Changes from v1-v2 based on comments by Len Brown and Fengguang Wu
    * Removed output "No Description" and leaving a NULL attribute if the
    _STR method failed to evaluate.

    * In acpi_device_remove_files() removed the redundent check of
    dev->pnp.str_obj before calling free. This check triggered a message
    from smatch.

  • Now that i2c-mux-gpio is able to find the GPIO chip by itself, we can
    delegate this task. The great thing here is that i2c-mux-gpio can
    defer device probing until the gpio chip is available, so we no longer
    depend on the module loading order.

    Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

  • The code instantiating an i2c-mux-gpio platform device doesn't
    necessarily know in advance the GPIO pin numbers it wants to use. If
    pins are on a GPIO device which gets its base GPIO number assigned
    dynamically at run-time, the values can't be hard-coded.

    In that case, let the caller tell i2c-mux-gpio the name of the GPIO
    chip and the (relative) GPIO pin numbers to use. At probe time, the
    i2c-mux-gpio driver will look for the chip and apply the proper offset
    to turn relative GPIO pin numbers to absolute GPIO pin numbers.

    The same could be (and was so far) done on the caller's end, however
    doing it in i2c-mux-gpio has two benefits:
    * It avoids duplicating the code on every caller's side (about 30
    lines of code.)
    * It allows for deferred probing for the muxed part of the I2C bus
    only. If finding the GPIO chip is the caller's responsibility, then
    deferred probing (if the GPIO chip isn't there yet) will not only
    affect the mux and the I2C bus segments behind it, but also the I2C
    bus trunk.

  • Add support for SMBus multiplexing on Asus Z8 motherboard series. On
    these boards, the memory slots are behind a GPIO-controlled I2C
    multiplexer. Models with 6 or 12 memory slots have 2 segments behind
    the multiplexer, while models with 18 memory slots have 3 such
    segments.

    On these boards, only the memory slots are behind the multiplexer,
    so it is possible to keep the autodetection mechanism.

    The code is generic enough so it could work on other boards as long as
    the multiplexer is controlled by GPIO pins. For other forms of
    multiplexing (for example using an I2C device) additional code will be
    needed.

    Thanks to Asus for providing a board to develop and test this feature,
    as well as all the technical information required.

    At the moment, the GPIO driver must be loaded before the i2c-i801
    driver, but I hope to solve this soon, using deferred probing on
    the i2c-mux-gpio side.

  • Converting kzalloc to devm_kzalloc simplifies the code and ensures that the
    result, alert, is freed after the irq allocated by the subsequent
    devm_request_irq. This in turn ensures that when an interrupt can be
    triggered, the alert structure is still available.

    The problem of a free after a devm_request_irq was found using the
    following semantic match (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

    //

  • Pull networking changes from David Miller:
    "The most important bit in here is the fix for input route caching from
    Eric Dumazet, it's a shame we couldn't fully analyze this in time for
    3.6 as it's a 3.6 regression introduced by the routing cache removal.

    Anyways, will send quickly to -stable after you pull this in.

    Other changes of note:

    1) Fix lockdep splats in team and bonding, from Eric Dumazet.

    2) IPV6 adds link local route even when there is no link local
    address, from Nicolas Dichtel.

    3) Fix ixgbe PTP implementation, from Jacob Keller.

    4) Fix excessive stack usage in cxgb4 driver, from Vipul Pandya.

    5) MAC length computed improperly in VLAN demux, from Antonio
    Quartulli."

  • Merge misc patches from Andrew Morton:
    "The MM tree is rather stuck while I wait to find out what the heck is
    happening with sched/numa. Probably I'll need to route around all the
    code which was added to -next, sigh.

    So this is "everything else", or at least most of it - other small
    bits are still awaiting resolutions of various kinds."
