Event parameters are a basic way for partial events to be specified in
sysfs with per-event names given to the fields that need to be filled in
when using a particular event.It is intended for supporting cases where the single 'cpu' parameter is
insufficient. For example, POWER 8 has events for physical
sockets/cores/cpus that are accessible from with virtual machines. To
keep using the single 'cpu' parameter we'd need to perform a mapping
between Linux's cpus and the physical machine's cpus (in this case Linux
is running under a hypervisor). This isn't possible because bindings
between our cpus and physical cpus may not be fixed, and we probably
won't have a "cpu" on each physical cpu.Signed-off-by: Cody P Schafer

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1.We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good
thing, but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines
removed overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid
details.The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder
code out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel. This is code
that has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the
tens of millions of devices with no issues. Yes, the code is horrid,
and the userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going
to change due to legacy issues that we have no control over. Because
so many devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable,
might as well promote it out of staging.This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
participating agreed that this was the best way forward.There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
that work for another year at the earliest. If that ever happens, and
Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been
doing it for the past few years with no problems. I'll send a
MAINTAINERS entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk
to the Google developers about if they are willing to help with it or
not, last I checked they were, which was good.All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time we have some more new material than we used to have during
the last couple of development cycles.The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified
interface for accessing device properties provided by platform
firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and
drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from
as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them
available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects
without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary
in some cases. This has been in the works for quite a few months (and
development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant
maintainers.On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface
(at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are
made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate
GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO
information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines
(in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it
knows about the device in question). That also has been approved by
the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use
it.Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver.
It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the
processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However, it
can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary.Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI
operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated
Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms.
That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for
thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting
and so on.Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration
information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect
off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very
indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an
operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the
device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller). The
support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver
work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some
other use cases in the future.Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor.
In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the
place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream
release.As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for
Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA
engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the
thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should
handle some more corner cases, among other things.On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the
ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and
strange looking failures on some systems.In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of
commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration
option. That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic
power domains code during which we realized that trying to support
certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really
worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway. For
this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select
CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter
became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it. The
material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but
there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of
the merge window.Specifics:
- Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD
device configuration objects and a unified device properties
interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that. As
stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows
device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI)
agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are
now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is
additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to
GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not
present or does not provide the expected data). The changes in
this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron
Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam,
Geert Uytterhoeven).- Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described
in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate
driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is
supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled
automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in
the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie.- New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie).
- Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used
by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR
platforms for power resource control and thermal management (Aaron
Lu).- Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies
between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and
deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the
_DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan
Tianyu).- New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung).
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects
tools (Bob Moore).- Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code
and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume (Lv Zheng
and Rafael J Wysocki).- ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions
management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been
allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs
queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics
driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that
code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go
away. From Konstantin Khlebnikov.- ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power
management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly. The
problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support of its
own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device having
ACPI PM support goes into D3cold. To work around that, the PM
domain used by the ACPI LPSS driver is redesigned so at least one
device with ACPI PM support will be on as long as the DMA engine is
in use. From Andy Shevchenko.- ACPI backlight driver fix to avoid using it on "Win8-compatible"
systems where it doesn't work and where it was used by default by
mistake (Aaron Lu).- Assorted minor ACPI core fixes and cleanups from Tomasz Nowicki,
Sudeep Holla, Huang Rui, Hanjun Guo, Fabian Frederick, and Ashwin
Chaugule (mostly related to the upcoming ARM64 support).- Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) power capping driver fixes
and improvements including new processor IDs (Jacob Pan).- Generic power domains modification to power up domains after
attaching devices to them to meet the expectations of device
drivers and bus types assuming devices to be accessible at probe
time (Ulf Hansson).- Preliminary support for controlling device clocks from the generic
power domains core code and modifications of the ARM/shmobile
platform to use that feature (Ulf Hansson).- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the generic power domains core
code (Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven).- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the device clocks control code
in the PM core (Geert Uytterhoeven, Grygorii Strashko).- Consolidation of device power management Kconfig options by making
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and removing the latter
which is now redundant (Rafael J Wysocki and Kevin Hilman). That
is the first batch of the changes needed for this purpose.- Core device runtime power management support code cleanup related
to the execution of callbacks (Andrzej Hajda).- cpuidle ARM support improvements (Lorenzo Pieralisi).
- cpuidle cleanup related to the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_VALID flag and a
new MAINTAINERS entry for ARM Exynos cpuidle (Daniel Lezcano and
Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).- New cpufreq driver callback (->ready) to be executed when the
cpufreq core is ready to use a given policy object and cpufreq-dt
driver modification to use that callback for cooling device
registration (Viresh Kumar).- cpufreq core fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Vince Hsu, James
Geboski, Tomeu Vizoso).- Assorted fixes and cleanups in the cpufreq-pcc, intel_pstate,
cpufreq-dt, pxa2xx cpufreq drivers (Lenny Szubowicz, Ethan Zhao,
Stefan Wahren, Petr Cvek).- OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework modification to allow
OPPs to be removed too and update of a few cpufreq drivers
(cpufreq-dt, exynos5440, imx6q, cpufreq) to remove OPPs (added
during initialization) on driver removal (Viresh Kumar).- Hibernation core fixes and cleanups (Tina Ruchandani and Markus
Elfring).- PM Kconfig fix related to CPU power management (Pankaj Dubey).

Improve performance by using multiple RDMA/RC channels per SCSI
host for communication with an SRP target. About the
implementation:
- Introduce a loop over all channels in the code that uses
target->ch.
- Set the SRP_MULTICHAN_MULTI flag during login for the creation
of the second and subsequent channels.
- RDMA completion vectors are chosen such that RDMA completion
interrupts are handled by the CPU socket that submitted the I/O
request. As one can see in this patch it has been assumed if a
system contains n CPU sockets and m RDMA completion vectors
have been assigned to an RDMA HCA that IRQ affinity has been
configured such that completion vectors [i*m/n..(i+1)*m/n) are
bound to CPU socket i with 0 < n.
- Modify srp_free_ch_ib() and srp_free_req_data() such that it
becomes safe to invoke these functions after the corresponding
allocation function failed.
- Add a ch_count sysfs attribute per target port.Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche

This patch adds initial support for providing processor cache information
to userspace through sysfs interface. This is based on already existing
implementations(x86, ia64, s390 and powerpc) and hence the interface is
intended to be fully compatible.The main purpose of this generic support is to avoid further code
duplication to support new architectures and also to unify all the existing
different implementations.This implementation maintains the hierarchy of cache objects which reflects
the system's cache topology. Cache devices are instantiated as needed as
CPUs come online. The cache information is replicated per-cpu even if they are
shared. A per-cpu array of cache information maintained is used mainly for
sysfs-related book keeping.It also implements the shared_cpu_map attribute, which is essential for
enabling both kernel and user-space to discover the system's overall cache
topology.This patch also add the missing ABI documentation for the cacheinfo sysfs
interface already, which is well defined and widely used.Signed-off-by: Sudeep Holla

Make the hid function available for gadgets composed with configfs.
Signed-off-by: Andrzej Pietrasiewicz
Signed-off-by: Felipe Balbi -
NUMA systems with ACPI normally describe the physical topology via _PXM
methods. But many BIOSes don't implement _PXM, which leaves the kernel
with no way to discover the device topology, which reduces performance
because we can't put memory and processes close to the device.The NUMA node of a PCI device is already exported in the sysfs "numa_node"
file. Make that file writable so users can workaround the lack of _PXM
methods in the BIOS. For example:echo 3 > /sys/devices/pci0000:ff/0000:03:1f.3/numa_node
sets the node for PCI device 0000:03:1f.3.
Writing the file emits a FW_BUG warning to encourage users to request
firmware updates. It also taints the kernel with TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND
because overriding the node incorrectly can cause performance issues.[bhelgaas: changelog, documentation text]

`notify_free' device attribute accounts the number of slot free
notifications and internally represents the number of zram_free_page()
calls. Slot free notifications are sent only when device is used as a
swap device, hence `notify_free' is used only for swap devices. Since
f4659d8e620d08 (zram: support REQ_DISCARD) ZRAM handles yet another one
free notification (also via zram_free_page() call) -- REQ_DISCARD
requests, which are sent by a filesystem, whenever some data blocks are
discarded. However, there is no way to know the number of notifications
in the latter case.Use `notify_free' to account the number of pages freed by
zram_bio_discard() and zram_slot_free_notify(). Depending on usage
scenario `notify_free' represents:a) the number of pages freed because of slot free notifications, which is
equal to the number of swap_slot_free_notify() calls, so there is no
behaviour changeb) the number of pages freed because of REQ_DISCARD notifications

Normally, zram user could get maximum memory usage zram consumed via
polling mem_used_total with sysfs in userspace.But it has a critical problem because user can miss peak memory usage
during update inverval of polling. For avoiding that, user should poll it
with shorter interval(ie, 0.0000000001s) with mlocking to avoid page fault
delay when memory pressure is heavy. It would be troublesome.This patch adds new knob "mem_used_max" so user could see the maximum
memory usage easily via reading the knob and reset it via "echo 0 >
/sys/block/zram0/mem_used_max".Signed-off-by: Minchan Kim

Since zram has no control feature to limit memory usage, it makes hard to
manage system memrory.This patch adds new knob "mem_limit" via sysfs to set up the a limit so
that zram could fail allocation once it reaches the limit.In addition, user could change the limit in runtime so that he could
manage the memory more dynamically.Initial state is no limit so it doesn't break old behavior.
