  • We need to call exit_thread from copy_process in a fail path. So make it
    accept task_struct as a parameter.

    [v2]
    * s390: exit_thread_runtime_instr doesn't make sense to be called for
    non-current tasks.
    * arm: fix the comment in vfp_thread_copy
    * change 'me' to 'tsk' for task_struct
    * now we can change only archs that actually have exit_thread

    Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

    User visible changes:

    - Honour the kernel.perf_event_max_stack knob more precisely by not counting
    PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER} when deciding when to stop adding entries to
    the perf_sample->ip_callchain[] array (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

    - Fix identation of 'stalled-backend-cycles' in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)

    - Update runtime using 'cpu-clock' event in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)

    - Use 'cpu-clock' for cpu targets in 'perf stat' (Namhyung Kim)

    - Avoid fractional digits for integer scales in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)

    - Store vdso buildid unconditionally, as it appears in callchains and
    we're not checking those when creating the build-id table, so we
    end up not being able to resolve VDSO symbols when doing analysis
    on a different machine than the one where recording was done, possibly
    of a different arch even (arm -> x86_64) (He Kuang)

    Infrastructure changes:

    - Generalize max_stack sysctl handler, will be used for configuring
    multiple kernel knobs related to callchains (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  • Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
    "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel cycle v4.7:

    Core infrastructural changes:

    - Support for natively single-ended GPIO driver stages.

    This means that if the hardware has registers to configure open
    drain or open source configuration, we use that rather than (as we
    did before) try to emulate it by switching the line to an input to
    get high impedance.

    This is also documented throughly in Documentation/gpio/driver.txt
    for those of you who did not understand one word of what I just
    wrote.

    - Start to do away with the unnecessarily complex and unitelligible
    ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB and ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB, another
    evolutional artifact from the time when the GPIO subsystem was
    unmaintained.

    Archs can now just select GPIOLIB and be done with it, cleanups to
    arches will trickle in for the next kernel. Some minor archs ACKed
    the changes immediately so these are included in this pull request.

    - Advancing the use of the data pointer inside the GPIO device for
    storing driver data by switching the PowerPC, Super-H Unicore and
    a few other subarches or subsystem drivers in ALSA SoC, Input,
    serial, SSB, staging etc to use it.

    - The initialization now reads the input/output state of the GPIO
    lines, so that each GPIO descriptor knows - if this callback is
    implemented - whether the line is input or output. This also
    reflects nicely in userspace "lsgpio".

    - It is now possible to name GPIO producer names, line names, from
    the device tree. (Platform data has been supported for a while).
    I bet we will get a similar mechanism for ACPI one of those days.
    This makes is possible to get sensible producer names for e.g.
    GPIO rails in "lsgpio" in userspace.

    New drivers:

    - New driver for the Loongson1.

    - The XLP driver now supports Broadcom Vulcan ARM64.

    - The IT87 driver now supports IT8620 and IT8628.

    - The PCA953X driver now supports Galileo Gen2.

    Driver improvements:

    - MCP23S08 was switched to use the gpiolib irqchip helpers and now
    also suppors level-triggered interrupts.

    - 74x164 and RCAR now supports the .set_multiple() callback

    - AMDPT was converted to use generic GPIO.

    - TC3589x, TPS65218, SX150X, F7188X, MENZ127, VX855, WM831X, WM8994
    support the new single ended callback for open drain and in some
    cases open source.

    - Implement the .get_direction() callback for a few more drivers like
    PL061, Xgene.

    Cleanups:

    - Paul Gortmaker combed through the drivers and de-modularized those
    who are not really modules.

    - Move the GPIO poweroff DT bindings to the power subdir where they
    belong.

    - Rename gpio-generic.c to gpio-mmio.c, which is much more to the
    point. That's what it is handling, nothing more, nothing less"

  • The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit
    most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+
    deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby.

    And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One
    that is per event still needs to be put in place tho.

    The new file is:

    # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
    127

    Chaging it:

    # echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
    # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
    256

    But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get:

    # echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack
    -bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
    #

    Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there
    is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter
    of having no callchain users at that point.

    "Highlights:

    1) Support more Realtek wireless chips, from Jes Sorenson.

    2) New BPF types for per-cpu hash and arrap maps, from Alexei
    Starovoitov.

    3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov.

    4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing
    of incoming TCP/UDP connections. The muxing can be done using a
    BPF program which hashes the incoming packet. From Craig Gallek.

    5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based
    interface. BPF programs can be used to determine the message
    boundaries. From Tom Herbert.

    6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca.

    7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface
    with lots of configured addresses. We were doing things like
    traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and
    flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as
    well.

    8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer.

    9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for
    ixgbe, from John Fastabend.

    10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis,
    from Kan Liang.

    11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported.
    From David Decotigny.

    12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types
    (ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device
    level attributes as a whole. From Jiri Pirko.

    13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai.

    14) Add "Local Checksum Offload". Basically, for a tunneled packet
    the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the
    checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload
    of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage
    of that in various ways. From Edward Cree"

  • Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
    "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel v4.6. There is quite a
    lot of interesting stuff going on.

    The patches to other subsystems and arch-wide are ACKed as far as
    possible, though I consider things like per-arch as
    essentially a part of the GPIO subsystem so it should not be needed.

    Core changes:

    - The gpio_chip is now a *real device*. Until now the gpio chips
    were just piggybacking the parent device or (gasp) floating in
    space outside of the device model.

    We now finally make GPIO chips devices. The gpio_chip will create
    a gpio_device which contains a struct device, and this gpio_device
    struct is kept private. Anything that needs to be kept private
    from the rest of the kernel will gradually be moved over to the
    gpio_device.

    - As a result of making the gpio_device a real device, we have added
    resource management, so devm_gpiochip_add_data() will cut down on
    overhead and reduce code lines. A huge slew of patches convert
    almost all drivers in the subsystem to use this.

    - Building on making the GPIO a real device, we add the first step of
    a new userspace ABI: the GPIO character device. We take small
    steps here, so we first add a pure *information* ABI and the tool
    "lsgpio" that will list all GPIO devices on the system and all
    lines on these devices.

    We can now discover GPIOs properly from userspace. We still have
    not come up with a way to actually *use* GPIOs from userspace.

    - To encourage people to use the character device for the future, we
    have it always-enabled when using GPIO. The old sysfs ABI is still
    opt-in (and can be used in parallel), but is marked as deprecated.

    We will keep it around for the foreseeable future, but it will not
    be extended to cover ever more use cases.

    Cleanup:

    - Bjorn Helgaas removed a whole slew of per-architecture
    includes.

    This dates back to when GPIO was an opt-in feature and no shared
    library even existed: just a header file with proper prototypes was
    provided and all semantics were up to the arch to implement. These
    patches make the GPIO chip even more a proper device and cleans out
    leftovers of the old in-kernel API here and there.

    Still some cruft is left but it's very little now.

    - There is still some clamping of return values for .get() going on,
    but we now return sane values in the vast majority of drivers and
    the errorpath is sanitized. Some patches for powerpc, blackfin and
    unicore still drop in.

    - We continue to switch the ARM, MIPS, blackfin, m68k local GPIO
    implementations to use gpiochip_add_data() and cut down on code
    lines.

    - MPC8xxx is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.

    - ATH79 is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.

    New drivers:

    - WinSystems WS16C48

    - Acces 104-DIO-48E

    - F81866 (a F7188x variant)

    - Qoric (a MPC8xxx variant)

    - TS-4800

    - SPI serializers (pisosr): simple 74xx shift registers connected to
    SPI to obtain a dirt-cheap output-only GPIO expander.

    - Texas Instruments TPIC2810

    - Texas Instruments TPS65218

    - Texas Instruments TPS65912

    - X-Gene (ARM64) standby GPIO controller"

  • This patch updates csum_ipv6_magic so that it correctly recognizes that
    protocol is a unsigned 8 bit value.

    This will allow us to better understand what limitations may or may not be
    present in how we handle the data. For example there are a number of
    places that call htonl on the protocol value. This is likely not necessary
    and can be replaced with a multiplication by ntohl(1) which will be
    converted to a shift by the compiler.

  • This patch updates all instances of csum_tcpudp_magic and
    csum_tcpudp_nofold to reflect the types that are usually used as the source
    inputs. For example the protocol field is populated based on nexthdr which
    is actually an unsigned 8 bit value. The length is usually populated based
    on skb->len which is an unsigned integer.

    This addresses an issue in which the IPv6 function csum_ipv6_magic was
    generating a checksum using the full 32b of skb->len while
    csum_tcpudp_magic was only using the lower 16 bits. As a result we could
    run into issues when attempting to adjust the checksum as there was no
    protocol agnostic way to update it.

    With this change the value is still truncated as many architectures use
    "(len + proto) << 8", however this truncation only occurs for values
    greater than 16776960 in length and as such is unlikely to occur as we stop
    the inner headers at ~64K in size.

    I did have to make a few minor changes in the arm, mn10300, nios2, and
    score versions of the function in order to support these changes as they
    were either using things such as an OR to combine the protocol and length,
    or were using ntohs to convert the length which would have truncated the
    value.

    I also updated a few spots in terms of whitespace and type differences for
    the addresses. Most of this was just to make sure all of the definitions
    were in sync going forward.

  • Use perf framework to manage hardware instruction and data breakpoints.
    Add two new ptrace calls: PTRACE_GETHBPREGS and PTRACE_SETHBPREGS to
    query and set instruction and data breakpoints.
    Address bit 0 choose instruction (0) or data (1) break register, bits
    31..1 are the register number.
    Both calls transfer two 32-bit words: address (0) and control (1).
    Instruction breakpoint contorl word is 0 to clear breakpoint, 1 to set.
    Data breakpoint control word bit 31 is 'trigger on store', bit 30 is
    'trigger on load, bits 29..0 are length. Length 0 is used to clear a
    breakpoint. To set a breakpoint length must be a power of 2 in the range
    1..64 and the address must be length-aligned.

    Introduce new thread_info flag: TIF_DB_DISABLED. Set it if debug
    exception is raised by the kernel code accessing watched userspace
    address and disable corresponding data breakpoint. On exit to userspace
    check that flag and, if set, restore all data breakpoints.

    Handle debug exceptions raised with PS.EXCM set. This may happen when
    window overflow/underflow handler or fast exception handler hits data
    breakpoint, in which case save and disable all data breakpoints,
    single-step faulting instruction and restore data breakpoints.

  • With implementation of data breakpoints debug exceptions raised when
    PS.EXCM is set need to be handled, e.g. window overflow code can write
    to watched userspace address. Currently debug exception handler uses
    EXCSAVE and DEPC SRs to save temporary registers, but DEPC may not be
    available when PS.EXCM is set and more space will be needed to save
    additional state.
    Reorganize debug context: create per-CPU structure debug_table instance
    and store its address in the EXCSAVE instead of
    debug_exception function address. Expand this structure when more save
    space is needed.

  • Serial port is attached to XTFPGA boards as native endian device, now
    that earlycon parameter parser understands mmio32native put it into
    earlycon kernel parameter. This makes early console functional on both

  • Simulator stdin may be connected to a file, when its end is reached
    kernel hangs in infinite loop inside rs_poll, because simc_poll always
    signals that descriptor 0 is readable and simc_read always returns 0.
    Check simc_read return value and exit loop if it's not positive. Also
    don't rewind polling timer if it's zero.

  • Include pci/hotplug/Kconfig directly from pci/Kconfig, so arches don't
    have to source both pci/Kconfig and pci/hotplug/Kconfig.

    Note that this effectively adds pci/hotplug/Kconfig to the following
    arches, because they already sourced drivers/pci/Kconfig but they
    previously did not source drivers/pci/hotplug/Kconfig:

    alpha
    arm
    avr32
    frv
    m68k
    microblaze
    mn10300
    sparc
    unicore32

  • For a long time all architectures implement the pci_dma_* functions using
    the generic DMA API, and they all use the same header to do so.

    Move this header, pci-dma-compat.h, to include/linux and include it from
    the generic pci.h instead of having each arch duplicate this include.

  • Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so
    the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to
    convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization
    with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the
    hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu.
