mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners
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. Below is people who has "Signed-off-by" in the patches in Andrew's tree.

mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable
Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and makes related functions to be disabled in this case. Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

ACPI and power management updates for 3.19-rc1
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).
- cpupower tool fix (Prarit Bhargava).

There was a lot of clean ups and minor fixes. One of those clean ups was
to the trace_seq code. It also removed the return values to the
trace_seq_*() functions and use trace_seq_has_overflowed() to see if
the buffer filled up or not. This is similar to work being done to the
seq_file code as well in another tree.
Some of the other goodies include:
o Added some "!" (NOT) logic to the tracing filter.
o Fixed the frame pointer logic to the x86_64 mcount trampolines
o Added the logic for dynamic trampolines on !CONFIG_PREEMPT systems.
That is, the ftrace trampoline can be dynamically allocated
and be called directly by functions that only have a single hook
to them.

kernel: add panic_on_warn
There have been several times where I have had to rebuild a kernel to
cause a panic when hitting a WARN() in the code in order to get a crash
dump from a system. Sometimes this is easy to do, other times (such as
in the case of a remote admin) it is not trivial to send new images to
the user.
A much easier method would be a switch to change the WARN() over to a
panic. This makes debugging easier in that I can now test the actual
image the WARN() was seen on and I do not have to engage in remote
debugging.
This patch adds a panic_on_warn kernel parameter and
/proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_warn calls panic() in the
warn_slowpath_common() path. The function will still print out the
location of the warning.
An example of the panic_on_warn output:
The first line below is from the WARN_ON() to output the WARN_ON()'s
location. After that the panic() output is displayed.
WARNING: CPU: 30 PID: 11698 at /home/prarit/dummy_module/dummy-module.c:25 init_dummy+0x1f/0x30 [dummy_module]()

I'm stuck into panic that too litte free memory is left when I boot with trace_buf_size parameter.

To prevent victim like me, change description of trace_buf_size parameter more accurately.

intel_pstate: Add support for HWP
Add support of Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) described in Volume 3 section 14.4 of the SDM. With HWP enbaled intel_pstate will no longer be responsible for selecting P states for the processor. intel_pstate will continue to register to the cpufreq core as the scaling driver for CPUs implementing HWP. In HWP mode intel_pstate provides three functions reporting frequency to the cpufreq core, support for the set_policy() interface from the core and maintaining the intel_pstate sysfs interface in /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate. User preferences expressed via the set_policy() interface or the sysfs interface are forwared to the CPU via the HWP MSR interface.

The clk tree changes for 3.18 are dominated by clock drivers. Mostly
fixes and enhancements to existing drivers as well as new drivers. This tag contains a bit more arch code than I usually take due to some OMAP2+ changes. Additionally it contains the restart notifier handlers which are merged as a dependency into several trees. The PXA changes are the only messy part. Due to having a stable tree I had to revert one patch and follow up with one more fix near the tip of this tag. Some dead code is introduced but it will soon become live code after 3.18-rc1 is released as the rest of the PXA family is converted over to the common clock framework. Another trend in this tag is that multiple vendors have started to push the complexity of changing their CPU frequency into the clock driver, whereas this used to be done in CPUfreq drivers. Changes to the clk core include a generic gpio-clock type and a clk_set_phase() function added to the top-level clk.h api.

Mostly fixes and enhancements to existing drivers as well as new drivers. This tag contains a bit more arch code than I usually take due to some OMAP2+ changes. Additionally it contains the restart notifier handlers which are merged as a dependency into several trees. The PXA changes are the only messy part. Due to having a stable tree I had to revert one patch and follow up with one more fix near the tip of this tag. Some dead code is introduced but it will soon become live code after 3.18-rc1 is released as the rest of the PXA family is converted over to the common clock framework. Another trend in this tag is that multiple vendors have started to push the complexity of changing their CPU frequency into the clock driver, whereas this used to be done in CPUfreq drivers. Changes to the clk core include a generic gpio-clock type and a clk_set_phase() function added to the top-level clk.h api.

ima: added support for new kernel cmdline parameter ima_template_fmt
This patch allows users to provide a custom template format through the
new kernel command line parameter 'ima_template_fmt'. If the supplied
format is not valid, IMA uses the default template descriptor.
Changelog:
- v3:
- added check for 'fields' and 'num_fields' in
template_desc_init_fields() (suggested by Mimi Zohar)
- v2:
- using template_desc_init_fields() to validate a format string
(Roberto Sassu)
- updated documentation by stating that only the chosen template
descriptor is initialized (Roberto Sassu)
- v1:
- simplified code of ima_template_fmt_setup()
(Roberto Sassu, suggested by Mimi Zohar)

powerpc/numa: Add ability to disable and debug topology updates
We have hit a few customer issues with the topology update code (VPHN and PRRN). It would be nice to be able to debug the notifications coming from the hypervisor in both cases to the LPAR, as well as to disable responding to the notifications at boot-time, to narrow down the source of the problems. Add a basic level of such functionality, similar to the numa= command-line parameter. We already have a toggle in /proc/powerpc/topology_updates that allows run-time enabling/disabling, so the updates can be started at run-time if desired. But the bugs we've run into have occured during boot or very shortly after coming to login, and have resulted in a broken NUMA topology.

Input: i8042 - disable active multiplexing by default
Active multiplexing is a nice feature as it allows several pointing devices (such as touchpad and external mouse) use their native protocols at the same time. Unfortunately many manufacturers do not implement the feature properly even though they advertise it. The problematic implementations are never fixed, since Windows by default does not use this mode, and move from one BIOS/model of laptop to another. When active multiplexing is broken turning it on usually results in touchpad, keyboard, or both unresponsive. With PS/2 usage on decline (most of PS/2 devices in use nowadays are internal laptop touchpads), I expect number of users who have laptops with working MUX implementation, docking stations with external PS/2 ports, and who are still using external PS/2 mice, to be rather small. Let's flip the default to be OFF and allow activating it through i8042.nomux=0 kernel option. We'll also keep DMI table where we can record known good models.

ACPI and power management updates for 3.18-rc1
- Rework the handling of wakeup IRQs by the IRQ core such that
all of them will be switched over to "wakeup" mode in
suspend_device_irqs() and in that mode the first interrupt
will abort system suspend in progress or wake up the system
if already in suspend-to-idle (or equivalent) without executing
any interrupt handlers. Among other things that eliminates the
wakeup-related motivation to use the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND interrupt
flag with interrupts which don't really need it and should not
use it (Thomas Gleixner and Rafael J Wysocki).
- Switch over ACPI to handling wakeup interrupts with the help
of the new mechanism introduced by the above IRQ core rework
(Rafael J Wysocki).
- Rework the core generic PM domains code to eliminate code that's
not used, add DT support and add a generic mechanism by which
devices can be added to PM domains automatically during
enumeration (Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven and Tomasz Figa).
- Add debugfs-based mechanics for debugging generic PM domains
(Maciej Matraszek).
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20140828. Included are updates
related to the SRAT and GTDT tables and the _PSx methods are in
the METHOD_NAME list now (Bob Moore and Hanjun Guo).
- Add _OSI("Darwin") support to the ACPI core (unfortunately, that
can't really be done in a straightforward way) to prevent
Thunderbolt from being turned off on Apple systems after boot
(or after resume from system suspend) and rework the ACPI Smart
Battery Subsystem (SBS) driver to work correctly with Apple
platforms (Matthew Garrett and Andreas Noever).
- ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver update cleaning up the
code, adding support for 133MHz I2C source clock on Intel Baytrail
to it and making it avoid using UART RTS override with Auto Flow
Control (Heikki Krogerus).
- ACPI backlight updates removing the video_set_use_native_backlight
quirk which is not necessary any more, making the code check the
list of output devices returned by the _DOD method to avoid
creating acpi_video interfaces that won't work and adding a quirk
for Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (Hans de Goede, Aaron Lu and Stepan Bujnak).
- New Win8 ACPI OSI quirks for some Dell laptops (Edward Lin).
- Assorted ACPI code cleanups (Fabian Frederick, Rasmus Villemoes,
Sudip Mukherjee, Yijing Wang, and Zhang Rui).
- cpufreq core updates and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Preeti U Murthy,
Rasmus Villemoes).
- cpufreq driver updates: cpufreq-cpu0/cpufreq-dt (driver name
change among other things), ppc-corenet, powernv (Viresh Kumar,
Preeti U Murthy, Shilpasri G Bhat, Lucas Stach).
- cpuidle support for DT-based idle states infrastructure, new
ARM64 cpuidle driver, cpuidle core cleanups (Lorenzo Pieralisi,
Rasmus Villemoes).
- ARM big.LITTLE cpuidle driver updates: support for DT-based
initialization and Exynos5800 compatible string (Lorenzo Pieralisi,
Kevin Hilman).
- Rework of the test_suspend kernel command line argument and
a new trace event for console resume (Srinivas Pandruvada,
Todd E Brandt).
- Second attempt to optimize swsusp_free() (hibernation core) to
make it avoid going through all PFNs which may be way too slow on
some systems (Joerg Roedel).
- devfreq updates (Paul Bolle, Punit Agrawal, Ãrjan Eide).
- rockchip-io Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) driver and AVS
entry update in MAINTAINERS (Heiko Stübner, Kevin Hilman).
- PM core fix related to clock management (Geert Uytterhoeven).
- PM core's sysfs code cleanup (Johannes Berg).

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Features-wise, to me the most important this time is a rework of
wakeup interrupts handling in the core that makes them work
consistently across all of the available sleep states, including
suspend-to-idle. Many thanks to Thomas Gleixner for his help with
this work.
Second is an update of the generic PM domains code that has been in
need of some care for quite a while. Unused code is being removed, DT
support is being added and domains are now going to be attached to
devices in bus type code in analogy with the ACPI PM domain. The
majority of work here was done by Ulf Hansson who also has been the
most active developer this time.
Apart from this we have a traditional ACPICA update, this time to
upstream version 20140828 and a few ACPI wakeup interrupts handling
patches on top of the general rework mentioned above. There also are
several cpufreq commits including renaming the cpufreq-cpu0 driver to
cpufreq-dt, as this is what implements generic DT-based cpufreq
support, and a new DT-based idle states infrastructure for cpuidle.
In addition to that, the ACPI LPSS driver is updated, ACPI support for
Apple machines is improved, a few bugs are fixed and a few cleanups
are made all over.
Finally, the Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) subsystem now has a tree
maintained by Kevin Hilman that will be merged through the PM tree.
Numbers-wise, the generic PM domains update takes the lead this time
with 32 non-merge commits, second is cpufreq (15 commits) and the 3rd
place goes to the wakeup interrupts handling rework (13 commits).

We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in
particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used
when reading files from the EFI System Partition.
One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to
a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug
workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with

uas: Add no-report-opcodes quirk
Besides the ASM1051 (*) needing sdev->no_report_opcodes = 1, it turns out that the JMicron JMS567 also needs it to work properly with uas (usb-storage always sets it). Since some of the scsi devs were not to keen on the idea to outrightly set sdev->no_report_opcodes = 1 for all uas devices, so add a quirk for this, and set it for the JMS567. *) Which has become a non-issue since we've completely blacklisted uas on the ASM1051 for other reasons Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-and-tested-by: Claudio Bizzarri <claudio.bizzarri@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

ima: provide 'ima_appraise=log' kernel option
The kernel boot parameter "ima_appraise" currently defines 'off', 'enforce' and 'fix' modes. When designing a policy and labeling the system, access to files are either blocked in the default 'enforce' mode or automatically fixed in the 'fix' mode. It is beneficial to be able to run the system in a logging only mode, without fixing it, in order to properly analyze the system. This patch adds a 'log' mode to run the system in a permissive mode and log the appraisal results.

rcu: Add stall-warning checks for RCU-tasks
This commit adds a ten-minute RCU-tasks stall warning. The actual time is controlled by the boot/sysfs parameter rcu_task_stall_timeout, with values less than or equal to zero disabling the stall warnings. The default value is ten minutes, which means that the tasks that have not yet responded will get their stacks dumped every ten minutes, until they pass through a voluntary context switch.

rcutorture: Add callback-flood test
Although RCU is designed to handle arbitrary floods of callbacks, this capability is not routinely tested. This commit therefore adds a cbflood capability in which kthreads repeatedly registers large numbers of callbacks. One such kthread is created for each four CPUs (rounding up), and the test may be controlled by several cbflood_* kernel boot parameters, which control the number of bursts per flood, the number of callbacks per burst, the time between bursts, and the time between floods. The default values are large enough to exercise RCU's emergency responses to callback flooding. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

printk: allow increasing the ring buffer depending on the number of CPUs
The default size of the ring buffer is too small for machines with a large amount of CPUs under heavy load. What ends up happening when debugging is the ring buffer overlaps and chews up old messages making debugging impossible unless the size is passed as a kernel parameter. An idle system upon boot up will on average spew out only about one or two extra lines but where this really matters is on heavy load and that will vary widely depending on the system and environment. There are mechanisms to help increase the kernel ring buffer for tracing through debugfs, and those interfaces even allow growing the kernel ring buffer per CPU. We also have a static value which can be passed upon boot. Relying on debugfs however is not ideal for production, and relying on the value passed upon bootup is can only used *after* an issue has creeped up. Instead of being reactive this adds a proactive measure which lets you scale the amount of contributions you'd expect to the kernel ring buffer under load by each CPU in the worst case scenario. We use num_possible_cpus() to avoid complexities which could be introduced by dynamically changing the ring buffer size at run time, num_possible_cpus() lets us use the upper limit on possible number of CPUs therefore avoiding having to deal with hotplugging CPUs on and off. This introduces the kernel configuration option LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT which is used to specify the maximum amount of contributions to the kernel ring buffer in the worst case before the kernel ring buffer flips over, the size is specified as a power of 2. The total amount of contributions made by each CPU must be greater than half of the default kernel ring buffer size (1 << LOG_BUF_SHIFT bytes) in order to trigger an increase upon bootup. The kernel ring buffer is increased to the next power of two that would fit the required minimum kernel ring buffer size plus the additional CPU contribution. For example if LOG_BUF_SHIFT is 18 (256 KB) you'd require at least 128 KB contributions by other CPUs in order to trigger an increase of the kernel ring buffer. With a LOG_CPU_BUF_SHIFT of 12 (4 KB) you'd require at least anything over > 64 possible CPUs to trigger an increase. If you had 128 possible CPUs the amount of minimum required kernel ring buffer bumps to: ((1 << 18) + ((128 - 1) * (1 << 12))) / 1024 = 764 KB Since we require the ring buffer to be a power of two the new required size would be 1024 KB. This CPU contributions are ignored when the "log_buf_len" kernel parameter is used as it forces the exact size of the ring buffer to an expected power of two value.

This pull request has a lot of work done. The main thing is the changes
to the ftrace function callback infrastructure. It's introducing a way to allow different functions to call directly different trampolines instead of all calling the same "mcount" one. The only user of this for now is the function graph tracer, which always had a different trampoline, but the function tracer trampoline was called and did basically nothing, and then the function graph tracer trampoline was called. The difference now, is that the function graph tracer trampoline can be called directly if a function is only being traced by the function graph trampoline. If function tracing is also happening on the same function, the old way is still done. The accounting for this takes up more memory when function graph tracing is activated, as it needs to keep track of which functions it uses. I have a new way that wont take as much memory, but it's not ready yet for this merge window, and will have to wait for the next one. Another big change was the removal of the ftrace_start/stop() calls that were used by the suspend/resume code that stopped function tracing when entering into suspend and resume paths. The stop of ftrace was done because there was some function that would crash the system if one called smp_processor_id()! The stop/start was a big hammer to solve the issue at the time, which was when ftrace was first introduced into Linux. Now ftrace has better infrastructure to debug such issues, and I found the problem function and labeled it with "notrace" and function tracing can now safely be activated all the way down into the guts of suspend and resume. Other changes include clean ups of uprobe code. Clean up of the trace_seq() code. And other various small fixes and clean ups to ftrace and tracing. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABAgAGBQJT35zXAAoJEKQekfcNnQGuOz0H/38zqM0nLFhrgvz3EPk2UOjn xqpX8qyb2V7TJZL+IqeXU2a5cQZl5ba0D4WtBGpxbTae3CJYiuQ87iKUNFoH0om5 FDpn80igb368k8V3qRdRsziKVCCf0XBd/NkHJXc0ZkfXGyzB2Ga4bBxALxp2gj9y bnO+vKo6+tWYKG4hyQb4P3LRXUrK8/LWEsPr39cH2QH1Rdj69Lx9CgrCdUVJmwcb Bj8hEiLXL/RYCFNn79A3wNTUvW0rG/AOIf4SLqXtasSRZ0ToaU0ZyDnrNv+0Ol47 rX8tSk+LfXchL9hpIvjCf1vlAYq3pO02favteR/jip3lx/dTjEDE4RJ9qtJzZ4Q= =fwQY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-3.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "This pull request has a lot of work done.

The only user of this for now is the function graph tracer, which always had a different trampoline, but the function tracer trampoline was called and did basically nothing, and then the function graph tracer trampoline was called. The difference now, is that the function graph tracer trampoline can be called directly if a function is only being traced by the function graph trampoline. If function tracing is also happening on the same function, the old way is still done. The accounting for this takes up more memory when function graph tracing is activated, as it needs to keep track of which functions it uses. I have a new way that wont take as much memory, but it's not ready yet for this merge window, and will have to wait for the next one. Another big change was the removal of the ftrace_start/stop() calls that were used by the suspend/resume code that stopped function tracing when entering into suspend and resume paths. The stop of ftrace was done because there was some function that would crash the system if one called smp_processor_id()! The stop/start was a big hammer to solve the issue at the time, which was when ftrace was first introduced into Linux. Now ftrace has better infrastructure to debug such issues, and I found the problem function and labeled it with "notrace" and function tracing can now safely be activated all the way down into the guts of suspend and resume Other changes include clean ups of uprobe code, clean up of the trace_seq() code, and other various small fixes and clean ups to ftrace and tracing" * tag 'trace-3.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (57 commits) ftrace: Add warning if tramp hash does not match nr_trampolines ftrace: Fix trampoline hash update check on rec->flags ring-buffer: Use rb_page_size() instead of open coded head_page size ftrace: Rename ftrace_ops field from trampolines to nr_trampolines tracing: Convert local function_graph functions to static ftrace: Do not copy old hash when resetting tracing: let user specify tracing_thresh after selecting function_graph ring-buffer: Always run per-cpu ring buffer resize with schedule_work_on() tracing: Remove function_trace_stop and HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST s390/ftrace: remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop arm64, ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop Blackfin: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop metag: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop microblaze: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop MIPS: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop parisc: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop sh: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop sparc64,ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop tile: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop ftrace: x86: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop ... |

s390/pci: introduce lazy IOTLB flushing for DMA unmap
This changes the default IOTLB flushing method to lazy flushing, which means that there will be no direct flush after each DMA unmap operation. Instead, the iommu bitmap pointer will be adjusted after unmap, so that no DMA address will be re-used until after an iommu bitmap wrap-around. The only IOTLB flush will then happen after each wrap-around. A new kernel parameter "s390_iommu=" is also introduced, to allow changing the flushing behaviour to the old strict method.

ima: introduce multi-page collect buffers
Use of multiple-page collect buffers reduces: 1) the number of block IO requests 2) the number of asynchronous hash update requests Second is important for HW accelerated hashing, because significant amount of time is spent for preparation of hash update operation, which includes configuring acceleration HW, DMA engine, etc... Thus, HW accelerators are more efficient when working on large chunks of data. This patch introduces usage of multi-page collect buffers. Buffer size can be specified using 'ahash_bufsize' module parameter. Default buffer size is 4096 bytes.

ima: use ahash API for file hash calculation
Async hash API allows the use of HW acceleration for hash calculation. It may give significant performance gain and/or reduce power consumption, which might be very beneficial for battery powered devices. This patch introduces hash calculation using ahash API. ahash performance depends on the data size and the particular HW. Depending on the specific system, shash performance may be better. This patch defines 'ahash_minsize' module parameter, which is used to define the minimal file size to use with ahash. If this minimum file size is not set or the file is smaller than defined by the parameter, shash will be used. Changes in v3: - kernel parameter replaced with module parameter - pr_crit replaced with pr_crit_ratelimited - more comment changes - Mimi Changes in v2: - ima_ahash_size became as ima_ahash - ahash pre-allocation moved out from __init code to be able to use ahash crypto modules. Ahash allocated once on the first use. - hash calculation falls back to shash if ahash allocation/calculation fails - complex initialization separated from variable declaration - improved comments Signed-off-by: Dmitry Kasatkin <d.kasatkin@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |

xen: Introduce 'xen_nopv' to disable PV extensions for HVM guests.
By default when CONFIG_XEN and CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM kernels are run, they will enable the PV extensions (drivers, interrupts, timers, etc) - which is the best option for the majority of use cases. However, in some cases (kexec not fully working, benchmarking) we want to disable Xen PV extensions. As such introduce the 'xen_nopv' parameter that will do it. This parameter is intended only for HVM guests as the Xen PV guests MUST boot with PV extensions. However, even if you use 'xen_nopv' on Xen PV guests it will be ignored.

rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups
An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would get behind, increasing grace-period latency. To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter. This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers, the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two. Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at the end of the grace period. For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79 wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system. Reported-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

kernel/watchdog.c: print traces for all cpus on lockup detection
A 'softlockup' is defined as a bug that causes the kernel to loop in kernel mode for more than a predefined period to time, without giving other tasks a chance to run. Currently, upon detection of this condition by the per-cpu watchdog task, debug information (including a stack trace) is sent to the system log. On some occasions, we have observed that the "victim" rather than the actual "culprit" (i.e. the owner/holder of the contended resource) is reported to the user. Often this information has proven to be insufficient to assist debugging efforts. To avoid loss of useful debug information, for architectures which support NMI, this patch makes it possible to improve soft lockup reporting. This is accomplished by issuing an NMI to each cpu to obtain a stack trace. If NMI is not supported we just revert back to the old method. A sysctl and boot-time parameter is available to toggle this feature.

kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option for kdump after panic_notifers
Add a "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" boot option to run kdump after running panic_notifiers and dump kmsg. This can help rare situations where kdump fails because of unstable crashed kernel or hardware failure (memory corruption on critical data/code), or the 2nd kernel is already broken by the 1st kernel (it's a broken behavior, but who can guarantee that the "crashed" kernel works correctly?). Usage: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" to kernel boot option. Note that this actually increases risks of the failure of kdump. This option should be set only if you worry about the rare case of kdump failure rather than increasing the chance of success.

init/main.c: add initcall_blacklist kernel parameter
When a module is built into the kernel the module_init() function becomes an initcall. Sometimes debugging through dynamic debug can help, however, debugging built in kernel modules is typically done by changing the .config, recompiling, and booting the new kernel in an effort to determine exactly which module caused a problem. This patchset can be useful stand-alone or combined with initcall_debug. There are cases where some initcalls can hang the machine before the console can be flushed, which can make initcall_debug output inaccurate. Having the ability to skip initcalls can help further debugging of these scenarios. Usage: initcall_blacklist=<list of comma separated initcalls> ex) added "initcall_blacklist=sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and the log contains: blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init ... ... initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted ex) added "initcall_blacklist=foo_bar,sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and the log contains: blacklisting initcall foo_bar blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init ... ... initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak printk text] Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Richard Weinberger <richard.weinberger@gmail.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@fedoraproject.org> Cc: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

cma: add placement specifier for "cma=" kernel parameter
Currently, "cma=" kernel parameter is used to specify the size of CMA, but we can't specify where it is located. We want to locate CMA below 4GB for devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems without iommu. This enables to specify the placement of CMA by extending "cma=" kernel parameter. Examples: 1. locate 64MB CMA below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G" 2. locate 64MB CMA exact at 512MB by "cma=64M@512M" Note that the DMA contiguous memory allocator on x86 assumes that page_address() works for the pages to allocate.

"ACPICA is the leader this time (63 commits), followed by cpufreq (28
commits), devfreq (15 commits), system suspend/hibernation (12
commits), ACPI video and ACPI device enumeration (10 commits each).
We have no major new features this time, but there are a few
significant changes of how things work. The most visible one will
probably be that we are now going to create platform devices rather
than PNP devices by default for ACPI device objects with _HID. That
was long overdue and will be really necessary to be able to use the
same drivers for the same hardware blocks on ACPI and DT-based systems
going forward. We're not expecting fallout from this one (as usual),
but it's something to watch nevertheless.
The second change having a chance to be visible is that ACPI video
will now default to using native backlight rather than the ACPI
backlight interface which should generally help systems with broken
Win8 BIOSes. We're hoping that all problems with the native backlight
handling that we had previously have been addressed and we are in a
good enough shape to flip the default, but this change should be easy
enough to revert if need be.
In addition to that, the system suspend core has a new mechanism to
allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended throughout system
suspend/resume transitions if some extra conditions are met
(generally, they are related to coordination within device hierarchy).
However, enabling this feature requires cooperation from the bus type
layer and for now it has only been implemented for the ACPI PM domain
(used by ACPI-enumerated platform devices mostly today).
Also, the acpidump utility that was previously shipped as a separate
tool will now be provided by the upstream ACPICA along with the rest
of ACPICA code, which will allow it to be more up to date and better
supported, and we have one new cpuidle driver (ARM clps711x).
The rest is improvements related to certain specific use cases,
cleanups and fixes all over the place.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20140424. That includes a number
of fixes and improvements related to things like GPE handling,
table loading, headers, memory mapping and unmapping, DSDT/SSDT
overriding, and the Unload() operator. The acpidump utility from
upstream ACPICA is included too. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, David
Box, David Binderman, and Colin Ian King.
- Fixes and cleanups related to ACPI video and backlight interfaces
from Hans de Goede. That includes blacklist entries for some new
machines and using native backlight by default.
- ACPI device enumeration changes to create platform devices rather
than PNP devices for ACPI device objects with _HID by default. PNP
devices will still be created for the ACPI device object with
device IDs corresponding to real PNP devices, so that change should
not break things left and right, and we're expecting to see more
and more ACPI-enumerated platform devices in the future. From
Zhang Rui and Rafael J Wysocki.
- Updates for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver allowing it
to handle system suspend/resume on Asus T100 correctly. From
Heikki Krogerus and Rafael J Wysocki.
- PM core update introducing a mechanism to allow runtime-suspended
devices to stay suspended over system suspend/resume transitions if
certain additional conditions related to coordination within device
hierarchy are met. Related PM documentation update and ACPI PM
domain support for the new feature. From Rafael J Wysocki.
- Fixes and improvements related to the "freeze" sleep state. They
affect several places including cpuidle, PM core, ACPI core, and
the ACPI battery driver. From Rafael J Wysocki and Zhang Rui.
- Miscellaneous fixes and updates of the ACPI core from Aaron Lu,
Bjørn Mork, Hanjun Guo, Lan Tianyu, and Rafael J Wysocki.
- Fixes and cleanups for the ACPI processor and ACPI PAD (Processor
Aggregator Device) drivers from Baoquan He, Manuel Schölling, Tony
Camuso, and Toshi Kani.
- System suspend/resume optimization in the ACPI battery driver from
Lan Tianyu.
- OPP (Operating Performance Points) subsystem updates from Chander
Kashyap, Mark Brown, and Nishanth Menon.
- cpufreq core fixes, updates and cleanups from Srivatsa S Bhat,
Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar.
- Updates, fixes and cleanups for the Tegra, powernow-k8, imx6q,
s5pv210, nforce2, and powernv cpufreq drivers from Brian Norris,

The root cause is: 1. ACPICA doesn't split IO memory mapping and table mapping; 2. Linux x86 OSL implements acpi_os_map_memory() using a size limited fix-map mechanism during early boot stage, which is more suitable for only IO mappings. This patch fixes this issue by utilizing acpi_gbl_verify_table_checksum to disable the table mapping during early stage and enabling it again for the late stage. In this way, the normal code path is not affected. Then after the code related to the root cause is cleaned up, the early checksum verification can be easily re-enabled. A new boot parameter - acpi_force_table_verification is introduced for the platforms that require the checksum verification to stop loading bad tables. This fix also covers the checksum verification for the table overrides. Now large tables can also be overridden using the initrd override mechanism.

x86/xsaves: Add a kernel parameter noxsaves to disable xsaves/xrstors
This patch adds a kernel parameter noxsaves to disable xsaves/xrstors feature. The kernel will fall back to use xsaveopt and xrstor to save and restor xstates. By using this parameter, xsave area occupies more memory because standard form of xsave area in xsaveopt/xrstor occupies more memory than compacted form of xsave area. This patch adds a description of the kernel parameter noxsaveopt in doc. The code to support the parameter noxsaveopt has been in the kernel before. This patch just adds the description of this parameter in the doc.

m68k: Multi-platform EARLY_PRINTK
Make the boot console available to more m68k platforms by leveraging the head.S debug console. The boot console is enabled by the "earlyprintk" command line argument which is how most other architectures do this. This is a change of behaviour for the Mac but does not negatively impact the common use-case which is not debugging. This is also a change of behaviour for other platforms because it means the serial port stays quiet when CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK is not enabled. This is also an improvement for the common use-case.

PM / sleep: Introduce command line argument for sleep state enumeration
On some systems the platform doesn't support neither PM_SUSPEND_MEM nor PM_SUSPEND_STANDBY, so PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE is the only available system sleep state. However, some user space frameworks only use the "mem" and (sometimes) "standby" sleep state labels, so the users of those systems need to modify user space in order to be able to use system suspend at all and that is not always possible. For this reason, add a new kernel command line argument, relative_sleep_states, allowing the users of those systems to change the way in which the kernel assigns labels to system sleep states. Namely, for relative_sleep_states=1, the "mem", "standby" and "freeze" labels will enumerate the available system sleem states from the deepest to the shallowest, respectively, so that "mem" is always present in /sys/power/state and the other state strings may or may not be presend depending on what is supported by the platform. Update system sleep states documentation to reflect this change. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> |

ACPI / video: change acpi-video brightness_switch_enabled default to 0
acpi-video is unique in that it not only generates brightness up/down keypresses, but also (sometimes) actively changes the brightness itself. This presents an inconsistent kernel interface to userspace, basically there are 2 different scenarios, depending on the laptop model: 1) On some laptops a brightness up/down keypress means: show a brightness osd with the current brightness, iow it is a brightness has changed notification. 2) Where as on (a lot of) other laptops it means a brightness up/down key was pressed, deal with it. Most of the desktop environments interpret any press as in scenario 2, and change the brightness up / down as a response to the key events, causing it to be changed twice, once by acpi-video and once by the DE. With the new default for video.use_native_backlight we will be moving even more laptops over to behaving as in scenario 2. Making the remaining laptops even more of a weird exception. Also note that it is hard to detect scenario 1 properly in userspace, and AFAIK none of the DE-s deals with it. Therefor this commit changes the default of brightness_switch_enabled to 0 making its behavior consistent with all the other backlight drivers.

It is reported that when acpi_gbl_disable_ssdt_table_load is specified, user still can see it installed into /sys/firmware/acpi/tables on Linux boxes. This is because the option only stops table "loading", but doesn't stop table "installing", thus it is still in the acpi_gbl_root_table_list.

Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come. This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty. Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release. This is not the end of the vdso cleanups. Stefani and Andy have agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this cycle. An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed.

ACPI and power management updates for 3.15-rc1
- Device PM QoS support for latency tolerance constraints on systems with
hardware interfaces allowing such constraints to be specified. That is
necessary to prevent hardware-driven power management from becoming
overly aggressive on some systems and to prevent power management
features leading to excessive latencies from being used in some cases.
- Consolidation of the handling of ACPI hotplug notifications for device
objects. This causes all device hotplug notifications to go through
the root notify handler (that was executed for all of them anyway
before) that propagates them to individual subsystems, if necessary,
by executing callbacks provided by those subsystems (those callbacks
are associated with struct acpi_device objects during device
enumeration). As a result, the code in question becomes both smaller
in size and more straightforward and all of those changes should not
affect users.
- ACPICA update, including fixes related to the handling of _PRT in cases
when it is broken and the addition of "Windows 2013" to the list of
supported "features" for _OSI (which is necessary to support systems
that work incorrectly or don't even boot without it). Changes from
Bob Moore and Lv Zheng.
- Consolidation of ACPI _OST handling from Jiang Liu.
- ACPI battery and AC fixes allowing unusual system configurations to
be handled by that code from Alexander Mezin.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of this material spent some time in linux-next, some of
it even several weeks. There are a few relatively fresh commits in
it, but they are mostly fixes and simple cleanups.
ACPI took the lead this time, both in terms of the number of commits
and the number of modified lines of code, cpufreq follows and there
are a few changes in the PM core and in cpuidle too.
A new feature that already got some LWN.net's attention is the device
PM QoS extension allowing latency tolerance requirements to be
propagated from leaf devices to their ancestors with hardware
interfaces for specifying latency tolerance. That should help systems
with hardware-driven power management to avoid going too far with it
in cases when there are latency tolerance constraints.
There also are some significant changes in the ACPI core related to
the way in which hotplug notifications are handled. They affect PCI
hotplug (ACPIPHP) and the ACPI dock station code too. The bottom line
is that all those notification now go through the root notify handler
and are propagated to the interested subsystems by means of callbacks
instead of having to install a notify handler for each device object
that we can potentially get hotplug notifications for.
In addition to that ACPICA will now advertise "Windows 2013"
compatibility for _OSI, because some systems out there don't work
correctly if that is not done (some of them don't even boot).
On the system suspend side of things, all of the device suspend and
resume callbacks, except for ->prepare() and ->complete(), are now
going to be executed asynchronously as that turns out to speed up
system suspend and resume on some platforms quite significantly and we
have a few more optimizations in that area.
Apart from that, there are some new device IDs and fixes and cleanups
all over. In particular, the system suspend and resume handling by
cpufreq should be improved and the cpuidle menu governor should be a
bit more robust now.

ACPICA: Enable auto-serialization as a default kernel behavior.
The previous commit "ACPICA: Add auto-serialization support for ill-behaved control methods" introduced the auto-serialization facility as a workaround that can be enabled by "acpi_auto_serialize": This feature marks control methods that create named objects as "serialized" to avoid unwanted AE_ALREADY_EXISTS control method evaluation failures. Enable method auto-serialization as the default kernel behavior. The new kernel parameter is also changed from "acpi_auto_serialize" to "acpi_no_auto_serialize" to reflect the default behavior.

ACPICA: Add auto-serialization support for ill-behaved control methods.
This change adds support to automatically mark a control method as "serialized" if the method creates any named objects. This will positively prevent the method from being entered by more than one thread and thus preventing a possible abort when an attempt is made to create an object twice. Implemented by parsing all non-serialize control methods at table load time. This feature is disabled by default and this patch also adds a new Linux kernel parameter "acpi_auto_serialize" to allow this feature to be turned on for a specific boot.

ACPICA: Remove global option to serialize all control methods.
According to the reports, the "acpi_serialize" mechanism is broken as:
A. The parallel method calls can still happen when the interpreter lock is
released under the following conditions:
1. External callbacks are invoked, for example, by the region handlers,
the exception handlers, etc.;
2. Module level execution is performed when Load/LoadTable opcodes are
executed, and
3. The _REG control methods are invoked to complete the region
registrations.
B. For the following situations, the interpreter lock need to be released
even for a serialized method while currently, the lock-releasing
operation is marked as a no-op by
acpi_ex_relinquish/reacquire_interpreter() when this mechanism is
enabled:
1. Wait opcode is executed,
2. Acquire opcode is executed, and
3. Sleep opcode is executed.
This patch removes this mechanism and the internal
acpi_ex_relinquish/reacquire_interpreter() APIs. Lv Zheng.

Randomize the load address of modules in the kernel to make kASLR effective for modules. Modules can only be loaded within a particular range of virtual address space. This patch adds 10 bits of entropy to the load address by adding 1-1024 * PAGE_SIZE to the beginning range where modules are loaded. The single base offset was chosen because randomizing each module load ends up wasting/fragmenting memory too much. Prior approaches to minimizing fragmentation while doing randomization tend to result in worse entropy than just doing a single base address offset. Example kASLR boot without this change, with a single module loaded: ---[ Modules ]--- 0xffffffffc0000000-0xffffffffc0001000 4K ro GLB x pte 0xffffffffc0001000-0xffffffffc0002000 4K ro GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc0002000-0xffffffffc0004000 8K RW GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc0004000-0xffffffffc0200000 2032K pte 0xffffffffc0200000-0xffffffffff000000 1006M pmd ---[ End Modules ]--- Example kASLR boot after this change, same module loaded: ---[ Modules ]--- 0xffffffffc0000000-0xffffffffc0200000 2M pmd 0xffffffffc0200000-0xffffffffc03bf000 1788K pte 0xffffffffc03bf000-0xffffffffc03c0000 4K ro GLB x pte 0xffffffffc03c0000-0xffffffffc03c1000 4K ro GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc03c1000-0xffffffffc03c3000 8K RW GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc03c3000-0xffffffffc0400000 244K pte 0xffffffffc0400000-0xffffffffff000000 1004M pmd ---[ End Modules ]--- Signed-off-by: Andy Honig <ahonig@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140226005916.GA27083@www.outflux.net Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: H.

ACPICA: Add boot option to disable auto return object repair
Sometimes, there might be bugs caused by unexpected AML which is compliant
to the Windows but not compliant to the Linux implementation.
There is a predefined validation mechanism implemented in ACPICA to repair
the unexpected AML evaluation results that are caused by the unexpected
AMLs. For example, BIOS may return misorder _CST result and the repair
mechanism can make an ascending order on the returned _CST package object
based on the C-state type.
This mechanism is quite useful to implement an AML interpreter with better
compliance with the real world where Windows is the de-facto standard and
BIOS codes are only tested on one platform thus not compliant to the
ACPI specification.
But if a compliance issue hasn't been figured out yet, it will be
difficult for developers to identify if the unexpected evaluation result
is caused by this mechanism or by the AML interpreter.
For example, _PR0 is expected to be a control method, but BIOS may use
Package: "Name(_PR0, Package(1) {P1PR})".
This boot option can disable the predefined validation mechanism so that
developers can make sure the root cause comes from the parser/executer.
This patch adds a new kernel parameter to disable this feature.
A build test has been made on a Dell Inspiron mini 1100 (i386 z530)
machine when this patch is applied and the corresponding boot test is
performed w/ or w/o the new kernel parameter specified.

ACPI and power management updates for 3.14-rc1
- ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for every
device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace scans regardless
of the current status of that device. In accordance with this, ACPI hotplug
operations will not delete those objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables
go away.
- On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects allowing
user space to check device status by triggering the execution of _STA for
its ACPI object. From Srinivas Pandruvada.
- ACPI core hotplug changes reducing code duplication, integrating the
PCI root hotplug with the core and reworking container hotplug.
- ACPI core simplifications making it use ACPI_COMPANION() in the code
"glueing" ACPI device objects to "physical" devices.
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20131218. This adds support for the
DBG2 and PCCT tables to ACPICA, fixes some bugs and improves debug
facilities. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng and Betty Dall.
- Init code change to carry out the early ACPI initialization earlier.
That should allow us to use ACPI during the timekeeping initialization
and possibly to simplify the EFI initialization too. From Chun-Yi Lee.
- Clenups of the inclusions of ACPI headers in many places all over from
Lv Zheng and Rashika Kheria (work in progress).
- New helper for ACPI _DSM execution and rework of the code in drivers
that uses _DSM to execute it via the new helper. From Jiang Liu.
- New Win8 OSI blacklist entries from Takashi Iwai.
- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Al Stone, Emil Goode, Hanjun Guo,

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
core, PNP and cpuidle updates. They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.
The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
status via _STA.
Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare. Also ACPI
container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
acpi-cpufreq driver.
Specifics:
- ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
scans regardless of the current status of that device. In
accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those
objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables go away.

ACPI / memhotplug: add parameter to disable memory hotplug
When booting a kexec/kdump kernel on a system that has specific memory hotplug regions the boot will fail with warnings like: swapper/0: page allocation failure: order:9, mode:0x84d0 CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.10.0-65.el7.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: QCI QSSC-S4R/QSSC-S4R, BIOS QSSC-S4R.QCI.01.00.S013.032920111005 03/29/2011 0000000000000000 ffff8800341bd8c8 ffffffff815bcc67 ffff8800341bd950 ffffffff8113b1a0 ffff880036339b00 0000000000000009 00000000000084d0 ffff8800341bd950 ffffffff815b87ee 0000000000000000 0000000000000200 Call Trace: [<ffffffff815bcc67>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b [<ffffffff8113b1a0>] warn_alloc_failed+0xf0/0x160 [<ffffffff815b87ee>] ? __alloc_pages_direct_compact+0xac/0x196 [<ffffffff8113f14f>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x7ff/0xa00 [<ffffffff815b417c>] vmemmap_alloc_block+0x62/0xba [<ffffffff815b41e9>] vmemmap_alloc_block_buf+0x15/0x3b [<ffffffff815b1ff6>] vmemmap_populate+0xb4/0x21b [<ffffffff815b461d>] sparse_mem_map_populate+0x27/0x35 [<ffffffff815b400f>] sparse_add_one_section+0x7a/0x185 [<ffffffff815a1e9f>] __add_pages+0xaf/0x240 [<ffffffff81047359>] arch_add_memory+0x59/0xd0 [<ffffffff815a21d9>] add_memory+0xb9/0x1b0 [<ffffffff81333b9c>] acpi_memory_device_add+0x18d/0x26d [<ffffffff81309a01>] acpi_bus_device_attach+0x7d/0xcd [<ffffffff8132379d>] acpi_ns_walk_namespace+0xc8/0x17f [<ffffffff81309984>] ? acpi_bus_type_and_status+0x90/0x90 [<ffffffff81309984>] ? acpi_bus_type_and_status+0x90/0x90 [<ffffffff81323c8c>] acpi_walk_namespace+0x95/0xc5 [<ffffffff8130a6d6>] acpi_bus_scan+0x8b/0x9d [<ffffffff81a2019a>] acpi_scan_init+0x63/0x160 [<ffffffff81a1ffb5>] acpi_init+0x25d/0x2a6 [<ffffffff81a1fd58>] ? acpi_sleep_proc_init+0x2a/0x2a [<ffffffff810020e2>] do_one_initcall+0xe2/0x190 [<ffffffff819e20c4>] kernel_init_freeable+0x17c/0x207 [<ffffffff819e18d0>] ? do_early_param+0x88/0x88 [<ffffffff8159fea0>] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 [<ffffffff8159feae>] kernel_init+0xe/0x180 [<ffffffff815cca2c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff8159fea0>] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 Mem-Info: Node 0 DMA per-cpu: CPU 0: hi: 0, btch: 1 usd: 0 Node 0 DMA32 per-cpu: CPU 0: hi: 42, btch: 7 usd: 0 active_anon:0 inactive_anon:0 isolated_anon:0 active_file:0 inactive_file:0 isolated_file:0 unevictable:0 dirty:0 writeback:0 unstable:0 free:872 slab_reclaimable:13 slab_unreclaimable:1880 mapped:0 shmem:0 pagetables:0 bounce:0 free_cma:0 because the system has run out of memory at boot time. This occurs because of the following sequence in the boot: Main kernel boots and sets E820 map. The second kernel is booted with a map generated by the kdump service using memmap= and memmap=exactmap. These parameters are added to the kernel parameters of the kexec/kdump kernel. The kexec/kdump kernel has limited memory resources so as not to severely impact the main kernel. The system then panics and the kdump/kexec kernel boots (which is a completely new kernel boot). During this boot ACPI is initialized and the kernel (as can be seen above) traverses the ACPI namespace and finds an entry for a memory device to be hotadded. ie) [<ffffffff815a1e9f>] __add_pages+0xaf/0x240 [<ffffffff81047359>] arch_add_memory+0x59/0xd0 [<ffffffff815a21d9>] add_memory+0xb9/0x1b0 [<ffffffff81333b9c>] acpi_memory_device_add+0x18d/0x26d [<ffffffff81309a01>] acpi_bus_device_attach+0x7d/0xcd [<ffffffff8132379d>] acpi_ns_walk_namespace+0xc8/0x17f [<ffffffff81309984>] ? acpi_bus_type_and_status+0x90/0x90 [<ffffffff81309984>] ? acpi_bus_type_and_status+0x90/0x90 [<ffffffff81323c8c>] acpi_walk_namespace+0x95/0xc5 [<ffffffff8130a6d6>] acpi_bus_scan+0x8b/0x9d [<ffffffff81a2019a>] acpi_scan_init+0x63/0x160 [<ffffffff81a1ffb5>] acpi_init+0x25d/0x2a6 At this point the kernel adds page table information and the the kexec/kdump kernel runs out of memory. This can also be reproduced by using the memmap=exactmap and mem=X parameters on the main kernel and booting. This patchset resolves the problem by adding a kernel parameter, acpi_no_memhotplug, to disable ACPI memory hotplug.

x86, apic, kexec: Add disable_cpu_apicid kernel parameter
Add disable_cpu_apicid kernel parameter. To use this kernel parameter, specify an initial APIC ID of the corresponding CPU you want to disable. This is mostly used for the kdump 2nd kernel to disable BSP to wake up multiple CPUs without causing system reset or hang due to sending INIT from AP to BSP. Kdump users first figure out initial APIC ID of the BSP, CPU0 in the 1st kernel, for example from /proc/cpuinfo and then set up this kernel parameter for the 2nd kernel using the obtained APIC ID. However, doing this procedure at each boot time manually is awkward, which should be automatically done by user-land service scripts, for example, kexec-tools on fedora/RHEL distributions. This design is more flexible than disabling BSP in kernel boot time automatically in that in kernel boot time we have no choice but referring to ACPI/MP table to obtain initial APIC ID for BSP, meaning that the method is not applicable to the systems without such BIOS tables. One assumption behind this design is that users get initial APIC ID of the BSP in still healthy state and so BSP is uniquely kept in CPU0. Thus, through the kernel parameter, only one initial APIC ID can be specified. In a comparison with disabled_cpu_apicid, we use read_apic_id(), not boot_cpu_physical_apicid, because on some platforms, the variable is modified to the apicid reported as BSP through MP table and this function is executed with the temporarily modified boot_cpu_physical_apicid. As a result, disabled_cpu_apicid kernel parameter doesn't work well for apicids of APs. Fixing the wrong handling of boot_cpu_physical_apicid requires some reviews and tests beyond some platforms and it could take some time. The fix here is a kind of workaround to focus on the main topic of this patch.

audit: add kernel set-up parameter to override default backlog limit
The default audit_backlog_limit is 64. This was a reasonable limit at one time. systemd causes so much audit queue activity on startup that auditd doesn't start before the backlog queue has already overflowed by more than a factor of 2. On a system with audit= not set on the kernel command line, this isn't an issue since that history isn't kept for auditd when it is available. On a system with audit=1 set on the kernel command line, kaudit tries to keep that history until auditd is able to drain the queue. This default can be changed by the "-b" option in audit.rules once the system has booted, but won't help with lost messages on boot. One way to solve this would be to increase the default backlog queue size to avoid losing any messages before auditd is able to consume them. This would be overkill to the embedded community and insufficient for some servers. Another way to solve it might be to add a kconfig option to set the default based on the system type. An embedded system would get the current (or smaller) default, while Workstations might get more than now and servers might get more. None of these solutions helps if a system's compiled default is too small to see the lost messages without compiling a new kernel. This patch adds a kernel set-up parameter (audit already has one to enable/disable it) "audit_backlog_limit=<n>" that overrides the default to allow the system administrator to set the backlog limit.

libata: disable a disk via libata.force params
A user on StackExchange had a failing SSD that's soldered directly onto the motherboard of his system. The BIOS does not give any option to disable it at all, so he can't just hide it from the OS via the BIOS. The old IDE layer had hdX=noprobe override for situations like this, but that was never ported to the libata layer. This patch implements a disable flag for libata.force. Example use: libata.force=2.0:disable [v2 of the patch, removed the nodisable flag per Tejun Heo] Signed-off-by: Robin H.
