  • Pull removal of GENERIC_GPIO from Grant Likely:
    "GENERIC_GPIO now synonymous with GPIOLIB. There are no longer any
    valid cases for enableing GENERIC_GPIO without GPIOLIB, even though it
    is possible to do so which has been causing confusion and breakage.
    This branch does the work to completely eliminate GENERIC_GPIO."

  • Currently help message of /proc/sysrq-trigger highlight its
    upper-case characters, like below:

    SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot Crash terminate-all-tasks(E)
    memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) ...

    this would confuse user trigger sysrq by upper-case character, which is
    inconsistent with the real lower-case character registed key.

    This inconsistent help message will also lead more confused when
    26 upper-case letters put into use in future.

    This patch fix spare sysrq key: "global-regs(y)"

  • The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
    s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
    slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
    option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.

    To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
    and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
    this config.

    Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
    enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
    warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an
    architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
    concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.

    While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
    that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
    architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

  • show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
    generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
    different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
    information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
    information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.

    show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
    does plus task and thread_info pointers.

    * Archs which didn't print debug info now do.

    alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
    metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
    um, xtensa

    * Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
    The printed information is superset of what used to be there.

    arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86

    * s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
    along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
    arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
    Converted to use the generic version.

    Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
    dumps.

  • Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each
    architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the
    current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints
    extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the
    backtrace while the two are identical on other archs.

    The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate
    show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while
    dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong,
    so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which
    triggered dump_stack().

    There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly
    identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information.

    This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in
    lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from
    x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific
    dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's
    dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand.

    Debug information can be printed separately by calling
    dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack()
    implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used
    in blackfin.

    This patch brings the following behavior changes.

    * On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be
    printed. This is because the top frame was determined in
    dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that
    reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not
    sure whether that'd be necessary.

    * Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do
    now.

    An example WARN dump follows.

    ...

    v2: CPU number added to the generic debug info as requested by s390
    folks and dropped the s390 specific dump_stack(). This loses %ksp
    from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important
    enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation.

    dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from
    lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file,
    dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic
    dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack()
    - at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info()
    as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1
    The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue. The build
    breakage was reported by Fengguang Wu.

  • show_stack(current or NULL, NULL) is used by arch-independent code to dump
    backtrace of the current task; however, sparc32 show_stack() doesn't
    implement it and wouldn't print any backtrace when NULL @_ksp is specfied.

    Make show_stack() acquire and use %fp if @tsk is NULL or current and @_ksp
    is NULL. This makes %fp fetching in dump_stack() unnecessary. Make it
    use NULL for @_ksp instead.

    Only compile tested.

    this went through a number of review and test iterations before it was

    on architectures that don't read the mailing lists and don't regularly
    test linux-next.

    This cat herding excercise was motivated by the -rt kernel, and was

  • The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap,
    specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages.

    This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code
    actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always
    translates it to bytes first.

    In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for
    the vmemmap. For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages()
    on sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind. But these
    are not necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit
    is too coarse.

    Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse
    code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

  • Commit abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")
    introduced another difference in the pte layout vs. the pmd layout on
    s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs. This requires
    replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
    huge_pte_xxx version.

    This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
    implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
    all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390. This change
    will be a no-op for those architectures.

    The e{uid,gid} --> {uid,gid} credentials fix conflicted with the

    The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
    interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.

    An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
    reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
    code.

    Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
    calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
    argument.

    Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO

  • As reported by Dave Kleikamp, when we emit cross calls to do batched
    TLB flush processing we have a race because we do not synchronize on
    the sibling cpus completing the cross call.

    So meanwhile the TLB batch can be reset (tb->tlb_nr set to zero, etc.)
    and either flushes are missed or flushes will flush the wrong
    addresses.

    Fix this by using generic infrastructure to synchonize on the
    completion of the cross call.

    This first required getting the flush_tlb_pending() call out from
    switch_to() which operates with locks held and interrupts disabled.
    The problem is that smp_call_function_many() cannot be invoked with
    IRQs disabled and this is explicitly checked for with WARN_ON_ONCE().

    We get the batch processing outside of locked IRQ disabled sections by
    using some ideas from the powerpc port. Namely, we only batch inside
    of arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() calls. If we're not in such a
    region, we flush TLBs synchronously.

    1) Get rid of xcall_flush_tlb_pending and per-cpu type
    implementations.

    2) Do TLB batch cross calls instead via:

    smp_call_function_many()
    tlb_pending_func()
    __flush_tlb_pending()

    3) Batch only in lazy mmu sequences:

    a) Add 'active' member to struct tlb_batch
    b) Define __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE
    c) Set 'active' in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode()
    d) Run batch and clear 'active' in arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode()
    e) Check 'active' in tlb_batch_add_one() and do a synchronous
    flush if it's clear.

    4) Add infrastructure for synchronous TLB page flushes.

    a) Implement __flush_tlb_page and per-cpu variants, patch
    as needed.
    b) Likewise for xcall_flush_tlb_page.
    c) Implement smp_flush_tlb_page() to invoke the cross-call.
    d) Wire up global_flush_tlb_page() to the right routine based
    upon CONFIG_SMP

    5) It turns out that singleton batches are very common, 2 out of every
    3 batch flushes have only a single entry in them.

    The batch flush waiting is very expensive, both because of the poll
    on sibling cpu completeion, as well as because passing the tlb batch
    pointer to the sibling cpus invokes a shared memory dereference.

    Therefore, in flush_tlb_pending(), if there is only one entry in
    the batch perform a completely asynchronous global_flush_tlb_page()
    instead.

    specific symbols which prevent these configuration symbols from being

    implementation did not scale at all since it required each and every

  • Currently, when a socket receives something on the error queue it only wakes up
    the socket on select if it is in the "read" list, that is the socket has
    something to read. It is useful also to wake the socket if it is in the error
    list, which would enable software to wait on error queue packets without waking
    up for regular data on the socket. The main use case is for receiving
    timestamped transmit packets which return the timestamp to the socket via the
    error queue. This enables an application to select on the socket for the error
    queue only instead of for the regular traffic.
