Pull virtio fixes from Michael S Tsirkin:
"virtio 1.0 related fixesMost importantly, this fixes using virtio_pci as a module.
Further, the big virtio 1.0 conversion missed a couple of places.
This fixes them up.This isn't 100% sparse-clean yet because on many architectures
get_user triggers sparse warnings when used with __bitwise tag (when
same tag is on both pointer and value read).I posted a patchset to fix it up by adding __force on all arches that
don't already have it (many do), when that's merged these warnings

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
management in user space.Specifics:
- Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
driver (Fabio Estevam).- Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
account (Aaron Lu).- Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).- Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
Bhargava).- Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
Kumar).- Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
rid of it.- Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).- Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).- Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).- Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).- Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able
to connect the fans with the parts of the system they are supposed
to be cooling properly. From Srinivas Pandruvada"* tag 'pm+acpi-3.19-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (32 commits)

Pull user namespace related fixes from Eric Biederman:
"As these are bug fixes almost all of thes changes are marked for
backporting to stable.The first change (implicitly adding MNT_NODEV on remount) addresses a
regression that was created when security issues with unprivileged
remount were closed. I go on to update the remount test to make it
easy to detect if this issue reoccurs.Then there are a handful of mount and umount related fixes.
Then half of the changes deal with the a recently discovered design
bug in the permission checks of gid_map. Unix since the beginning has
allowed setting group permissions on files to less than the user and
other permissions (aka ---rwx---rwx). As the unix permission checks
stop as soon as a group matches, and setgroups allows setting groups
that can not later be dropped, results in a situtation where it is
possible to legitimately use a group to assign fewer privileges to a
process. Which means dropping a group can increase a processes
privileges.The fix I have adopted is that gid_map is now no longer writable
without privilege unless the new file /proc/self/setgroups has been
set to permanently disable setgroups.The bulk of user namespace using applications even the applications
using applications using user namespaces without privilege remain
unaffected by this change. Unfortunately this ix breaks a couple user
space applications, that were relying on the problematic behavior (one
of which was tools/selftests/mount/unprivileged-remount-test.c).To hopefully prevent needing a regression fix on top of my security
fix I rounded folks who work with the container implementations mostly
like to be affected and encouraged them to test the changes.> So far nothing broke on my libvirt-lxc test bed. :-)

This reverts commit 16b7c275c055cc36218404b5d147be7f76575087.
My previous commit 16b7c275c055 ("tools: cpupower: fix return checks for
sysfs_get_idlestate_count()") was not correct. After looking
at the changelog for cpupower I noticed that Thomas had changed the return of
sysfs_get_idlestate_count() to an unsigned int to simplify the code. The
problem is really that both he (in his original change) and I (in my new
change) missed the obvious that sysfs_get_idlestate_count()
can't return -ENODEV. It should just return 0 for "no c-states".Fixes: 16b7c275c055 (tools: cpupower: fix return checks for ...)

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It
is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When
allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
analyze it from this stored information.In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
without considerable memory waste.Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the
trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For
example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
using this interface.I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

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).

Carvalho de Melo)- Fix annotation with kcore (Adrian Hunter)
- Support source line numbers in annotate using a hotkey (Andi Kleen)
- Callchain improvements including:
* Enable printing the srcline in the history
* Make get_srcline fall back to sym+offset (Andi Kleen)- TUI hist_entry browser fixes, including showing missing overhead
value for first level callchain. Detected comparing the output of
--stdio/--gui (that matched) with --tui, that had this problem.
(Namhyung Kim)- Support handling complete branch stacks as histograms (Andi Kleen)
Tooling infrastructure changes:
- Prep work for supporting per-pkg and snapshot counters in 'perf
stat' (Jiri Olsa)- 'perf stat' refactorings, moving stuff from it to evsel.c to use in
per-pkg/snapshot format changes (Jiri Olsa)- Add per-pkg format file parsing (Matt Fleming)
- Clean up libelf feature support code (Namhyung Kim)
- Add gzip decompression support for kernel modules (Namhyung Kim)
- More prep patches for Intel PT, including a a thread stack and more
stuff made available via the database export mechanism (Adrian
Hunter)- More Intel PT work, including a facility to export sample data
(comms, threads, symbol names, etc) in a database friendly way,
with an script to use this to create a postgresql database.
(Adrian Hunter)- Make sure that thread->mg->machine points to the machine where the
thread exists (it was being set only for the kmaps kernel modules
case, do it as well for the mmaps) and use it to shorten function
signatures (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)... and lots of other fixes and smaller improvements"

Red Hat and Fedora use a bug reporting tool that gathers data about
"broken" systems called sosreport. Among other things, it includes the
output of 'cpupower idle-info'. Executing 'cpupower idle-info' on a
system that has cpuidle disabled via 'cpuidle.off=1' results in a 300
second hang in the cpupower application.ie)
[root@intel-brickland-05]# cpupower idle-info
Could not determine cpuidle driverAnalyzing CPU 0:
Number of idle states: -19
[hang]The problem is that the cpupower code only checks for a zero return from
sysfs_get_idlestate_count(). The function can return -ENODEV (-19) as
above. This patch fixes callers to sysfs_get_idlestate_count() to check
the right return values.Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava

This test shows the amount of memory used by the system.
Note that this is dependent on the user-space that is loaded
when this program runs. Optimally, this program would be
run as the init program itself.The program is optimized for size itself, to avoid conflating
its own execution with that of the system software.
