Krzysztof Wojcik fee68723cf md: Cleanup after raid45->raid0 takeover
Problem:
After raid4->raid0 takeover operation, another takeover operation
(e.g raid0->raid10) results "kernel oops".
Root cause:
Variables 'degraded' in mddev structure is not cleared
on raid45->raid0 takeover.

This patch reset this variable.

NeilBrown 3b71bd9337 md: Fix dev_sectors on takeover from raid0 to raid4/5
A raid0 array doesn't set 'dev_sectors' as each device might
contribute a different number of sectors.
So when converting to a RAID4 or RAID5 we need to set dev_sectors
as they need the number.
We have already verified that in fact all devices do contribute
the same number of sectors, so use that number.

NeilBrown 2b7da309ff md/raid5: remove setting of ->queue_lock
We previously needed to set ->queue_lock to match the raid5
device_lock so we could safely use queue_flag_* operations (e.g. for
plugging). which test the ->queue_lock is in fact locked.

However that need has completely gone away and is unlikely to come
back to remove this now-pointless setting.

Mikhail Kshevetskiy 9db4e4381a tty/n_gsm: fix bug in CRC calculation for gsm1 mode
Problem description:
  gsm_queue() calculate a CRC for arrived frames. As a last step of
  CRC calculation it call

    gsm->fcs = gsm_fcs_add(gsm->fcs, gsm->received_fcs);

  This work perfectly for the case of GSM0 mode as gsm->received_fcs
  contain the last piece of data required to generate final CRC.

  gsm->received_fcs is not used for GSM1 mode. Thus we put an
  additional byte to CRC calculation. As result we get a wrong CRC
  and reject incoming frame.

Rafael J. Wysocki 19234c0819 PM: Add missing syscore_suspend() and syscore_resume() calls
Device suspend/resume infrastructure is used not only by the suspend
and hibernate code in kernel/power, but also by APM, Xen and the
kexec jump feature.  However, commit 40dc166cb5
(PM / Core: Introduce struct syscore_ops for core subsystems PM)
failed to add syscore_suspend() and syscore_resume() calls to that
code, which generally leads to breakage when the features in question
are used.

To fix this problem, add the missing syscore_suspend() and
syscore_resume() calls to arch/x86/kernel/apm_32.c, kernel/kexec.c
and drivers/xen/manage.c.

		wake_up(&rl->wait[BLK_RW_SYNC]);

If we don't satify the situation of "if", we can get that
rl->count[BLK_RW_SYNC} < q->nr_quests. It is the same as
rl->count[BLK_RW_SYNC]+1 <= q->nr_requests.
All the "else" should satisfy the "else if" check so it isn't

We are currently using this flag to check whether it's safe
to call into ->request_fn(). If it is set, we punt to kblockd.
But we get a lot of false positives and excessive punts to
kblockd, which hurts performance.

The only real abuser of this infrastructure is SCSI. So export
the async queue run and convert SCSI over to use that. There's
room for improvement in that SCSI need not always use the async
call, but this fixes our performance issue and they can fix that
up in due time.

Michael Witten ced465c400 perf tools: Makefile: PYTHON{,_CONFIG} to bandage Python 3 incompatibility
Currently, Python 3 is not supported by perf's code; this
can cause the build to fail for systems that have Python 3
installed as the default python:

  python{,-config}

The Correct Solution is to write compatibility code so that
Python 3 works out-of-the-box.

However, users often have an ancillary Python 2 installed:

  python2{,-config}

Therefore, a quick fix is to allow the user to specify those
ancillary paths as the python binaries that Makefile should
use, thereby avoiding Python 3 altogether; as an added benefit,
the Python binaries may be installed in non-standard locations
without the need for updating any PATH variable.

This commit adds the ability to set PYTHON and/or PYTHON_CONFIG
either as environment variables or as make variables on the
command line; the paths may be relative, and usually only PYTHON
is necessary in order for PYTHON_CONFIG to be defined implicitly.
Some rudimentary error checking is performed when the user
explicitly specifies a value for any of these variables.

In addition, this commit introduces significantly robust makefile
infrastructure for working with paths and communicating with the
shell; it's currently only used for handling Python, but I hope
it will prove useful in refactoring the makefiles.

Thanks to:

for motivating this patch.

Michael Witten 3643b133f2 perf tools: Makefile: Clean up `python/perf.so' rule
There is no need for a subshell or an explicit `export';
as per the POSIX Shell Command Language specification:

  http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/xcu_chap02.html#tag_02_09_01
  http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/xcu_chap02.html#tag_02_10_02

It is only necessary to include the environment variable
assignment just before the command to be run.

Also, it is better to use single-quotes, because GNU make
might expand `$(BASIC_CFLAGS)' into something that the shell
could interpret within double-quotes.

Robert Richter c8e5910edf perf, x86: Use ALTERNATIVE() to check for X86_FEATURE_PERFCTR_CORE
Using ALTERNATIVE() when checking for X86_FEATURE_PERFCTR_CORE avoids
an extra pointer chase and data cache hit.

Robert Richter 855357a217 perf, x86: Fix AMD family 15h FPU event constraints
Depending on the unit mask settings some FPU events may be scheduled
only on cpu counter #3. This patch fixes this.

Andre Przywara 83112e688f perf, x86: Fix pre-defined cache-misses event for AMD family 15h cpus
With AMD cpu family 15h a unit mask was introduced for the Data Cache
Miss event (0x041/L1-dcache-load-misses). We need to enable bit 0
(first data cache miss or streaming store to a 64 B cache line) of
this mask to proper count data cache misses.

Now we set this bit for all families and models. In case a PMU does
not implement a unit mask for event 0x041 the bit is ignored.
