Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here's the "big" driver core update for 4.7-rc1.Mostly just debugfs changes, the long-known and messy races with
removing debugfs files should be fixed thanks to the great work of
Nicolai Stange. We also have some isa updates in here (the x86
maintainers told me to take it through this tree), a new warning when
we run out of dynamic char major numbers, and a few other assorted
changes, details in the shortlog.All have been in linux-next for some time with no reported issues"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
governor. Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
ones).There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
executed in process context or similar. Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
is used on a large number of systems.The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
progress on top of it already). Nevertheless it works and the
preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
code any more. Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
generic mechanism.In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
provided via the ACPI _PPC object.The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
a number of places.Specifics:
- New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)- Consolidation of CPU frequency management on ARM platforms allowing
them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they
are going to use the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh Kumar, Finley Xiao,
Marc Gonzalez)- Support for ACPI _PPC and CPU frequency limits in the intel_pstate
driver (Srinivas Pandruvada)- Fixes and cleanups in the cpufreq core and generic governor code

- Fixes and cleanups in the OPP (Operating Performance Points)
framework, mostly related to OPP sharing, and reorganization of
OF-dependent code in it (Viresh Kumar, Arnd Bergmann, Sudeep Holla)- New "passive" governor for devfreq (for SoC subsystems that will
rely on someone else for the management of their power resources)
and consolidation of devfreq support for Exynos platforms, coding
style and typo fixes for devfreq (Chanwoo Choi, MyungJoo Ham)- PM core fixes and cleanups, mostly to make it work better with the
generic power domains (genpd) framework, and updates for that
framework (Ulf Hansson, Thierry Reding, Colin Ian King)- Intel Broxton support for the intel_idle driver (Len Brown)

Some ethernet adapter vendors are supplying products which support optional
(payed license) features. On some adapters this includes a hardware iscsi
initiator. The same adapters in a normal (no extra licenses) mode of
operation can be used as a software iscsi initiator. In addition, software
iscsi boot initiators are becoming a standard part of many vendors uefi
implementations. This is creating difficulties during early boot/install
determining the proper configuration method for these adapters when they
are used as a boot device.The attached patch creates sysfs entries to expose information from the
acpi header of the ibft table. This information allows for a method to
easily determining if an ibft table was created by a ethernet card's
firmware or the system uefi/bios. In the case of a hardware initiator this
information in combination with the pci vendor and device id can be used
to ascertain any vendor specific behaviors that need to be accommodated.Reviewed-by: Lee Duncan

Broadcom ARM home routers store SPROM content in NVRAM just like MIPS
ones. To share SPROM code we need to move it out of arch/mips/ to some
common place. We already have bcm47xx_nvram in firmware path and SPROM
should fit there as well.
This driver is responsible for parsing SoC configuration data into a
struct shared between ssb and bcma buses.
This was tested with BCM4706 & BCM5357C0 (BCM47XX) and BCM4708A0

use a reboot notifier, so we can set 'stop_capsules' while holding

efi: Fix out-of-bounds read in variable_matches() -
Currently, our KASLR implementation randomizes the placement of the core
kernel at 2 MB granularity. This is based on the arm64 kernel boot
protocol, which mandates that the kernel is loaded TEXT_OFFSET bytes above
a 2 MB aligned base address. This requirement is a result of the fact that
the block size used by the early mapping code may be 2 MB at the most (for
a 4 KB granule kernel)But we can do better than that: since a KASLR kernel needs to be relocated
in any case, we can tolerate a physical misalignment as long as the virtual
misalignment relative to this 2 MB block size is equal in size, and code to
deal with this is already in place.Since we align the kernel segments to 64 KB, let's randomize the physical
offset at 64 KB granularity as well (unless CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is
enabled). This way, the page table and TLB footprint is not affected.The higher granularity allows for 5 bits of additional entropy to be used.

The UEFI spec allows runtime services to be called with interrupts
masked or unmasked, and if a runtime service function needs to mask
interrupts, it must restore the mask to its original state before
returning (i.e. from the PoV of the OS, this does not change across a
call). Firmware should never unmask exceptions, as these may then be
taken by the OS unexpectedly.Unfortunately, some firmware has been seen to unmask IRQs (and
potentially other maskable exceptions) across runtime services calls,
leaving IRQ flags corrupted after returning from a runtime services
function call. This may be detected by the IRQ tracing code, but often
goes unnoticed, leaving a potentially disastrous bug hidden.This patch detects when the IRQ flags are corrupted by an EFI runtime
services call, logging the call and specific corruption to the console.
While restoring the expected value of the flags is insufficient to avoid
problems, we do so to avoid redundant warnings from elsewhere (e.g. IRQ
tracing).The set of bits in flags which we want to check is architecture-specific
(e.g. we want to check FIQ on arm64, but not the zero flag on x86), so
each arch must provide ARCH_EFI_IRQ_FLAGS_MASK to describe those. In the
absence of this mask, the check is a no-op, and we redundantly save the
flags twice, but that will be short-lived as subsequent patches
will implement this and remove the scaffolding.Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland

Currently each architecture must implement two macros, efi_call_virt() and
__efi_call_virt(), which only differ by the presence or absence of a
return type. Otherwise, the logic surrounding the call is identical.As each architecture must define the entire body of each, we can't place
any generic manipulation (e.g. irq flag validation) in the middle.This patch adds template implementations of these macros. With these,
arch code can implement three template macros, avoiding reptition for
the void/non-void return cases:* arch_efi_call_virt_setup()
Sets up the environment for the call (e.g. switching page tables,
allowing kernel-mode use of floating point, if required).* arch_efi_call_virt()
Performs the call. The last expression in the macro must be the call
itself, allowing the logic to be shared by the void and non-void
cases.* arch_efi_call_virt_teardown()
Restores the usual kernel environment once the call has returned.
While the savings from repition are minimal, we additionally gain the
ability to add common code around the call with the call environment set
up. This can be used to detect common firmware issues (e.g. bad irq mask
management).Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland

Now that ARM has a fully functional memremap() implementation, there is
no longer a need to remove the UEFI memory map from the linear mapping
in order to be able to create a permanent mapping for it using generic

7cc8cbcf82d1 ("efi/arm64: Don't apply MEMBLOCK_NOMAP to UEFI memory map mapping")

The EFI capsule mechanism allows data blobs to be passed to the EFI
firmware. A common use case is performing firmware updates. This patch
just introduces the main infrastructure for interacting with the
firmware, and a driver that allows users to upload capsules will come
in a later patch.Once a capsule has been passed to the firmware, the next reboot must
be performed using the ResetSystem() EFI runtime service, which may
involve overriding the reboot type specified by reboot=. This ensures
the reset value returned by QueryCapsuleCapabilities() is used to
reset the system, which is required for the capsule to be processed.
efi_capsule_pending() is provided for this purpose.At the moment we only allow a single capsule blob to be sent to the
firmware despite the fact that UpdateCapsule() takes a 'CapsuleCount'
parameter. This simplifies the API and shouldn't result in any
downside since it is still possible to send multiple capsules by
repeatedly calling UpdateCapsule().Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

This module installs a reboot callback, such that if reboot() is invoked
with a string argument NNN, "NNN" is copied to the "LoaderEntryOneShot"
EFI variable, to be read by the bootloader.If the string matches one of the boot labels defined in its configuration,
the bootloader will boot once to that label. The "LoaderEntryRebootReason"
EFI variable is set with the reboot reason: "reboot", "shutdown".The bootloader reads this reboot reason and takes particular action
according to its policy.There are reboot implementations that do "reboot ", such as
Android's reboot command and Upstart's reboot replacement, which pass
the reason as an argument to the reboot syscall. There is no
platform-agnostic way how those could be modified to pass the reason
to the bootloader, regardless of platform or bootloader.Signed-off-by: Jeremy Compostella

Most of the users of for_each_efi_memory_desc() are equally happy
iterating over the EFI memory map in efi.memmap instead of 'memmap',
since the former is usually a pointer to the latter.For those users that want to specify an EFI memory map other than
efi.memmap, that can be done using for_each_efi_memory_desc_in_map().
One such example is in the libstub code where the firmware is queried
directly for the memory map, it gets iterated over, and then freed.This change goes part of the way toward deleting the global 'memmap'
variable, which is not universally available on all architectures
(notably IA64) and is rather poorly named.Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming
