After previous changes the suspend-to-idle code flow can be
integrated more tightly with the generic system suspend code flow
by making suspend_enter() call s2idle_loop() later and removing
the direct invocations of dpm_noirq_begin(),
dpm_noirq_suspend_devices(), dpm_noirq_end(), and
dpm_noirq_resume_devices() from the latter, so do that.This change is not expected to alter functionality.

After commit 33e4f80ee69b ("ACPI / PM: Ignore spurious SCI wakeups
from suspend-to-idle") the "noirq" phases of device suspend and
resume may run for multiple times during suspend-to-idle, if there
are spurious system wakeup events while suspended. However, this
is complicated and fragile and actually unnecessary.The main reason for doing this is that on some systems the EC may
signal system wakeup events (power button events, for example) as
well as events that should not cause the system to resume (spurious
system wakeup events). Thus, in order to determine whether or not
a given event signaled by the EC while suspended is a proper system
wakeup one, the EC GPE needs to be dispatched and to start with that
was achieved by allowing the ACPI SCI action handler to run, which
was only possible after calling resume_device_irqs().However, dispatching the EC GPE this way turned out to take too much
time in some cases and some EC events might be missed due to that, so
commit 68e22011856f ("ACPI: EC: Dispatch the EC GPE directly on
s2idle wake") started to dispatch the EC GPE right after a wakeup
event has been detected, so in fact the full ACPI SCI action handler
doesn't need to run any more to deal with the wakeups coming from the
EC.Use this observation to simplify the suspend-to-idle control flow
so that the "noirq" phases of device suspend and resume are each
run only once in every suspend-to-idle cycle, which is reported to
significantly reduce power drawn by some systems when suspended to
idle (by allowing them to reach a deep platform-wide low-power state
through the suspend-to-idle flow). [What appears to happen is that
the "noirq" resume of devices after a spurious EC wakeup brings some
devices into a state in which they prevent the platform from reaching
the deep low-power state going forward, even after a subsequent
"noirq" suspend phase, and on some systems the EC triggers such
wakeups already when the "noirq" suspend of devices is running for
the first time in the given suspend/resume cycle, so the platform
cannot reach the deep low-power state at all.]First, make acpi_s2idle_wake() use the acpi_ec_dispatch_gpe() return
value to determine whether or not the wakeup may have been triggered
by the EC (in which case the system wakeup is canceled and ACPI
events are processed in order to determine whether or not the event
is a proper system wakeup one) and use rearm_wake_irq() (introduced
by a previous change) in it to rearm the ACPI SCI for system wakeup
detection in case the system will remain suspended.Second, drop acpi_s2idle_sync(), which is not needed any more, and
the corresponding global platform suspend-to-idle callback.Next, drop the pm_wakeup_pending() check (which is an optimization
only) from __device_suspend_noirq() to prevent it from returning
errors on system wakeups occurring before the "noirq" phase of
device suspend is complete (as in the case of suspend-to-idle it is
not known whether or not these wakeups are suprious at that point),
in order to avoid having to carry out a "noirq" resume of devices
on a spurious system wakeup.Finally, change the code flow in s2idle_loop() to (1) run the
"noirq" suspend of devices once before starting the loop, (2) check
for spurious EC wakeups (via the platform ->wake callback) for the
first time before calling s2idle_enter(), and (3) run the "noirq"
resume of devices once after leaving the loop.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

The role of the s2idle_wakeup variable is to cause
acpi_pm_wakeup_event() and acpi_pm_notify_handler() to
increment pm_abort_suspend and trigger a wakeup from
suspend-to-idle in case the ACPI SCI wakeup was canceled
by acpi_s2idle_wake().However, for this purpose it need not be set in acpi_s2idle_wake()
and cleared in acpi_s2idle_sync(), respectively. In fact, it
may be set as early as in acpi_s2idle_prepare() and cleared as
late as in acpi_s2idle_restore(), so do that to allow subsequent
changes to be simpler.This change is not expected to alter functionality.

It is not actually guaranteed that pm_abort_suspend will be
nonzero when pm_system_cancel_wakeup() is called which may lead to
subtle issues, so make it use atomic_dec_if_positive() instead of
atomic_dec() for the safety sake.Fixes: 33e4f80ee69b ("ACPI / PM: Ignore spurious SCI wakeups from suspend-to-idle")

On some systems, if suspend-to-idle is used, the EC may signal system
wakeup events (power button events, for example) as well as events
that should not cause the system to resume and acpi_ec_dispatch_gpe()
needs to be called to determine whether or not the system should
resume then. In particular, if acpi_ec_dispatch_gpe() doesn't detect
any EC events at all, the system should remain suspended, so it is
useful to know when that is the case.For this reason, make acpi_ec_dispatch_gpe() return a bool value
indicating whether or not any EC events have been detected by it.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

In some cases it is useful to know whether or not the
acpi_ev_detect_gpe() called by acpi_dispatch_gpe() has found
the GPE to be active, so return the return value of it (whose
data type is u32) from latter.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Introduce a new function, rearm_wake_irq(), allowing a wakeup IRQ
to be armed for systen wakeup detection again without running any
action handlers associated with it after it has been armed for
wakeup detection and triggered.That is useful for IRQs, like ACPI SCI, that may deliver wakeup
as well as non-wakeup interrupts when armed for systen wakeup
detection. In those cases, it may be possible to determine whether
or not the delivered interrupt is a systen wakeup one without
running the entire action handler (or handlers, if the IRQ is
shared) for the IRQ, and if the interrupt turns out to be a
non-wakeup one, the IRQ can be rearmed with the help of the
new function.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Matching on the 'cpus' node was a bad choice because the schema is
incorrectly applied to non-RiscV cpus nodes. As we now have a common cpus
schema which checks the general structure, it is also redundant to do so
in the Risc-V CPU schema.The downside is one could conceivably mix different architecture's cpu
nodes or have typos in the compatible string. The latter problem pretty
much exists for every schema.Acked-by: Paul Walmsley

Pull CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT stub config from Thomas Gleixner:
"The real-time preemption patch set exists for almost 15 years now and
while the vast majority of infrastructure and enhancements have found
their way into the mainline kernel, the final integration of RT is
still missing.Over the course of the last few years, we have worked on reducing the
intrusivenness of the RT patches by refactoring kernel infrastructure
to be more real-time friendly. Almost all of these changes were
benefitial to the mainline kernel on their own, so there was no
objection to integrate them.Though except for the still ongoing printk refactoring, the remaining
changes which are required to make RT a first class mainline citizen
are not longer arguable as immediately beneficial for the mainline
kernel. Most of them are either reordering code flows or adding RT
specific functionality.But this now has hit a wall and turned into a classic hen and egg
problem:Maintainers are rightfully wary vs. these changes as they make only
sense if the final integration of RT into the mainline kernel takes
place.Adding CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT aims to solve this as a clear sign that RT
will be fully integrated into the mainline kernel. The final
integration of the missing bits and pieces will be of course done with
the same careful approach as we have used in the past.While I'm aware that you are not entirely enthusiastic about that, I
think that RT should receive the same treatment as any other widely
used out of tree functionality, which we have accepted into mainline
over the years.RT has become the de-facto standard real-time enhancement and is
shipped by enterprise, embedded and community distros. It's in use
throughout a wide range of industries: telecommunications, industrial
automation, professional audio, medical devices, data acquisition,
automotive - just to name a few major use cases.RT development is backed by a Linuxfoundation project which is
supported by major stakeholders of this technology. The funding will
continue over the actual inclusion into mainline to make sure that the
functionality is neither introducing regressions, regressing itself,
nor becomes subject to bitrot. There is also a lifely user community
around RT as well, so contrary to the grim situation 5 years ago, it's
a healthy project.As RT is still a good vehicle to exercise rarely used code paths and
to detect hard to trigger issues, you could at least view it as a QA
tool if nothing else"* 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
"This is the final round of mostly small fixes in our initial submit.It's mostly minor fixes and driver updates. The only change of note is
adding a virt_boundary_mask to the SCSI host and host template to
parametrise this for NVMe devices instead of having them do a call in
slave_alloc. It's a fairly straightforward conversion except in the
two NVMe handling drivers that didn't set it who now have a virtual
infinity parameter added"* tag 'scsi-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi: (24 commits)

Pull dcache and mountpoint updates from Al Viro:
"Saner handling of refcounts to mountpoints.Transfer the counting reference from struct mount ->mnt_mountpoint
over to struct mountpoint ->m_dentry. That allows us to get rid of the
convoluted games with ordering of mount shutdowns.The cost is in teaching shrink_dcache_{parent,for_umount} to cope with
mixed-filesystem shrink lists, which we'll also need for the Slab
Movable Objects patchset"* 'work.dcache2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:

The recent fix for CR2 corruption introduced a new way to reliably corrupt
the saved CR2 value.CR2 is saved early in the entry code in RDX, which is the third argument to
the fault handling functions. But it missed that between saving and
invoking the fault handler enter_from_user_mode() can be called. RDX is a
caller saved register so the invoked function can freely clobber it with
the obvious consequences.The TRACE_IRQS_OFF call is safe as it calls through the thunk which
preserves RDX, but TRACE_IRQS_OFF_DEBUG is not because it also calls into
C-code outside of the thunk.Store CR2 in R12 instead which is a callee saved register and move R12 to
RDX just before calling the fault handler.Fixes: a0d14b8909de ("x86/mm, tracing: Fix CR2 corruption")

It's clearly documented that smp function calls cannot be invoked from
softirq handling context. Unfortunately nothing enforces that or emits a
warning.A single function call can be invoked from softirq context only via
smp_call_function_single_async().The only legit context is task context, so add a warning to that effect.

[No need to check padding fields for zero. - Paolo]
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini -
If a KVM guest is reset while running a nested guest, free_nested will
disable the shadow VMCS execution control in the vmcs01. However,
on the next KVM_RUN vmx_vcpu_run would nevertheless try to sync
the VMCS12 to the shadow VMCS which has since been freed.This causes a vmptrld of a NULL pointer on my machime, but Jan reports
the host to hang altogether. Let's see how much this trivial patch fixes.Reported-by: Jan Kiszka

If a perf_event creation fails due to any reason of the host perf
subsystem, it has no chance to log the corresponding event for guest
which may cause abnormal sampling data in guest result. In debug mode,
this message helps to understand the state of vPMC and we may not
limit the number of occurrences but not in a spamming style.Suggested-by: Joe Perches
