Not really the solution to the problem, but at least it confines the
mess in the core code and allows to get rid of the create/destroy_irq
variants from hell, i.e. 3 implementations with different semantics
plus the x86 specific variants __create_irqs and create_irq_nr
which have been invented in another circle of hell.x86 : x86 should be converted to irq domains and I'm deliberately
making it impossible to do the multi-vector MSI support by
adding more crap to the current mess. It's not that hard to do
and I'm really tired of the trainwrecks which have been invented
by baindaid engineering so far. Any attempt to do multi-vector
MSI or ioapic hotplug without converting to irq domains is NAKed
hereby.tile: Might use irq domains as well, but it has a very limited
interrupt space, so handling it via this functionality might be
the right thing to do even in the long run.ia64: That's an hopeless case, as I doubt that anyone has the stomach
to rewrite the homebrewn dynamic allocation facilities. I stared
at it for a couple of hours and gave up. The create/destroy_irq
mess could be made private to itanic right away if there
wouldn't be the iommu/dmar driver being shared with x86. So to
do that I'm going to add a separate ia64 specific implementation
later in order not to deep-six itanic right away.Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
"A somewhat unpleasantly large collection of small fixes. The big ones
are the __visible tree sweep and a fix for 'earlyprintk=efi,keep'. It
was using __init functions with predictably suboptimal results.Another key fix is a build fix which would produce output that simply
would not decompress correctly in some configuration, due to the
existing Makefiles picking up an unfortunate local label and mistaking
it for the global symbol _end.Additional fixes include the handling of 64-bit numbers when setting
the vdso data page (a latent bug which became manifest when i386
started exporting a vdso with time functions), a fix to the new MSR
manipulation accessors which would cause features to not get properly
unblocked, a build fix for 32-bit userland, and a few new platform
quirks"* 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

The replacement of the 'count' variable by two variables 'incs' and
'decs' to resolve some race conditions during module unloading was done
in parallel with some cleanup in the trace subsystem, and was integrated
as a merge.Unfortunately, the formula for this replacement was wrong in the tracing
code, and the refcount in the traces was not usable as a result.Use 'count = incs - decs' to compute the user count.

commit did use
mutex_unlock() in tasklet, but mutex_unlock() can't be used in
tasklet(atomic context). The driver needs to use mutex to avoid
concurrency, so we can't use tasklet here, the patch need to be
removed.The spinlock host->lock and pcr->lock may deadlock, one way to solve
the deadlock is remove host->lock in sd_isr_done_transfer(), but if
using workqueue the we can avoid using the spinlock and also avoid

Patch 01f8fa4f01d "genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interrupts" added
an irq_force_affinity() function, and 30ccf03b4a6 "clocksource: Exynos_mct:
Use irq_force_affinity() in cpu bringup" subsequently uses it. However, the
driver can be used with CONFIG_SMP disabled, but the function declaration
is only available for CONFIG_SMP, leading to this build error:drivers/clocksource/exynos_mct.c:431:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'irq_force_affinity' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

that always returns success, to get rid of the build error.

Commit d57c33c5daa4 (add generic fixmap.h) added (among other
similar things) set_fixmap_io to deal with early ioremap of devices.More recently, commit bf4b558eba92 (arm64: add early_ioremap support)
converted the arm64 earlyprintk to use set_fixmap_io. A side effect of
this conversion is that my virtual machines have stopped booting when
I pass "earlyprintk=uart8250-8bit,0x3f8" to the guest kernel.Turns out that the new earlyprintk code doesn't care at all about
sub-page offsets, and just assumes that the earlyprintk device will
be page-aligned. Obviously, that doesn't play well with the above example.Further investigation shows that set_fixmap_io uses __set_fixmap instead
of __set_fixmap_offset. A fix is to introduce a set_fixmap_offset_io that
uses the latter, and to remove the superflous call to fix_to_virt
(which only returns the value that set_fixmap_io has already given us).With this applied, my VMs are back in business. Tested on a Cortex-A57
platform with kvmtool as platform emulation.Cc: Will Deacon

Till reported that the spurious interrupt detection of threaded
interrupts is broken in two ways:- note_interrupt() is called for each action thread of a shared
interrupt line. That's wrong as we are only interested whether none
of the device drivers felt responsible for the interrupt, but by
calling multiple times for a single interrupt line we account
IRQ_NONE even if one of the drivers felt responsible.- note_interrupt() when called from the thread handler is not
serialized. That leaves the members of irq_desc which are used for
the spurious detection unprotected.To solve this we need to defer the spurious detection of a threaded
interrupt to the next hardware interrupt context where we have
implicit serialization.If note_interrupt is called with action_ret == IRQ_WAKE_THREAD, we
check whether the previous interrupt requested a deferred check. If
not, we request a deferred check for the next hardware interrupt and
return.If set, we check whether one of the interrupt threads signaled
success. Depending on this information we feed the result into the
spurious detector.If one primary handler of a shared interrupt returns IRQ_HANDLED we
disable the deferred check of irq threads on the same line, as we have
found at least one device driver who cared.Reported-by: Till Straumann

If the victim in on the shrink list, don't remove it from there.
If shrink_dentry_list() manages to remove it from the list before
we are done - fine, we'll just free it as usual. If not - mark
it with new flag (DCACHE_MAY_FREE) and leave it there.Eventually, shrink_dentry_list() will get to it, remove the sucker
from shrink list and call dentry_kill(dentry, 0). Which is where
we'll deal with freeing.Since now dentry_kill(dentry, 0) may happen after or during
dentry_kill(dentry, 1), we need to recognize that (by seeing
DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED already set), unlock everything
and either free the sucker (in case DCACHE_MAY_FREE has been
set) or leave it for ongoing dentry_kill(dentry, 1) to deal with.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Pull ftrace bugfix from Steven Rostedt:
"Takao Indoh reported that he was able to cause a ftrace bug while
loading a module and enabling function tracing at the same time.He uncovered a race where the module when loaded will convert the
calls to mcount into nops, and expects the module's text to be RW.
But when function tracing is enabled, it will convert all kernel text
(core and module) from RO to RW to convert the nops to calls to ftrace
to record the function. After the convertion, it will convert all the
text back from RW to RO.The issue is, it will also convert the module's text that is loading.
If it converts it to RO before ftrace does its conversion, it will
cause ftrace to fail and require a reboot to fix it again.This patch moves the ftrace module update that converts calls to
mcount into nops to be done when the module state is still
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED. This will ignore the module when the text is
being converted from RW back to RO"* tag 'trace-fixes-v3.15-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:

ftrace_bug() is called]When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1395637826-3312-1-git-send-email-indou.takao@jp.fujitsu.com

Allow userspace fs to specify time granularity.
This is needed because with writeback_cache mode the kernel is responsible
for generating mtime and ctime, but if the underlying filesystem doesn't
support nanosecond granularity then the cache will contain a different
value from the one stored on the filesystem resulting in a change of times
after a cache flush.Make the default granularity 1s.

On x86 the allocation of irq descriptors may allocate interrupts which
are in the range of the GSI interrupts. That's wrong as those
interrupts are hardwired and we don't have the irq domain translation
like PPC. So one of these interrupts can be hooked up later to one of
the devices which are hard wired to it and the io_apic init code for
that particular interrupt line happily reuses that descriptor with a
completely different configuration so hell breaks lose.Inside x86 we allocate dynamic interrupts from above nr_gsi_irqs,
except for a few usage sites which have not yet blown up in our face
for whatever reason. But for drivers which need an irq range, like the
GPIO drivers, we have no limit in place and we don't want to expose
such a detail to a driver.To cure this introduce a function which an architecture can implement
to impose a lower bound on the dynamic interrupt allocations.Implement it for x86 and set the lower bound to nr_gsi_irqs, which is
the end of the hardwired interrupt space, so all dynamic allocations
happen above.That not only allows the GPIO driver to work sanely, it also protects
the bogus callsites of create_irq_nr() in hpet, uv, irq_remapping and
htirq code. They need to be cleaned up as well, but that's a separate
issue.Reported-by: Jin Yao
