First pull request for 3.5-next, slightly large than usual because new
things kept coming in since the last pull for 3.4.
Highlights:
- first batch of hw enablement for vlv (Jesse et al) and hsw (Eugeni). pci
ids are not yet added, and there's still quite a few patches to merge
(mostly modesetting). To make QA easier I've decided to merge this stuff
in pieces.
- loads of cleanups and prep patches spurred by the above. Especially vlv
is a real frankenstein chip, but also hsw is stretching our driver's
code design. Expect more to come in this area for 3.5.
- more gmbus fixes, cleanups and improvements by Daniel Kurtz. Again,
there are more patches needed (and some already queued up), but I wanted
to split this a bit for better testing.
- pwrite/pread rework and retuning. This series has been in the works for
a few months already and a lot of i-g-t tests have been created for it.
Now it's finally ready to be merged. Note that one patch in this series
touches include/pagemap.h, that patch is acked-by akpm.
- reduce mappable pressure and relocation throughput improvements from
Chris.
- mmap offset exhaustion mitigation by Chris Wilson.
- a start at figuring out which codepaths in our messy dri1/ums+gem/kms
driver we actually need to support by bailing out of unsupported case.
The driver now refuses to load without kms on gen6+ and disallows a few
ioctls that userspace never used in certain cases. More of this will
definitely come.
- More decoupling of global gtt and ppgtt.
- Improved dual-link lvds detection by Takashi Iwai.
- Shut up the compiler + plus fix the fallout (Ben)
- Inverted panel brightness handling (mostly Acer manages to break things
in this way).
- Small fixlets and adjustements and some minor things to help debugging.
Regression-wise QA reported quite a few issues on ivb, but all of them
turned out to be hw stability issues which are already fixed in
drm-intel-fixes (QA runs the nightly regression tests on -next alone,
without -fixes automatically merged in). There's still one issue open on
snb, it looks like occlusion query writes are not quite as cache coherent
as we've expected. With some of the pwrite adjustements we can now
reliably hit this. Kernel workaround for it is in the works."

Pull nfsd changes from Bruce Fields:
Highlights:
- Benny Halevy and Tigran Mkrtchyan implemented some more 4.1 features,
moving us closer to a complete 4.1 implementation.
- Bernd Schubert fixed a long-standing problem with readdir cookies on
ext2/3/4.
- Jeff Layton performed a long-overdue overhaul of the server reboot
recovery code which will allow us to deprecate the current code (a
rather unusual user of the vfs), and give us some needed flexibility
for further improvements.
- Like the client, we now support numeric uid's and gid's in the
auth_sys case, allowing easier upgrades from NFSv2/v3 to v4.x.
Plus miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanup.
Thanks to everyone!
There are also some delegation fixes waiting on vfs review that I
suppose will have to wait for 3.5. With that done I think we'll finally
turn off the "EXPERIMENTAL" dependency for v4 (though that's mostly
symbolic as it's been on by default in distro's for a while).
And the list of 4.1 todo's should be achievable for 3.5 as well:
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues
though we may still want a bit more experience with it before turning it
on by default.
* 'for-3.4' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (55 commits)

ext4: return 32/64-bit dir name hash according to usage type
fs: add new FMODE flags: FMODE_32bithash and FMODE_64bithash
...
Mimic the client side by providing a module parameter that turns off
idmapping in the auth_sys case, for backwards compatibility with NFSv2
and NFSv3.
Unlike in the client case, we don't have any way to negotiate, since the
client can return an error to us if it doesn't like the id that we
return to it in (for example) a getattr call.
However, it has always been possible for servers to return numeric id's,
and as far as we're aware clients have always been able to handle them.
Also, in the auth_sys case clients already need to have numeric id's the
same between client and server.
Therefore we believe it's safe to default this to on; but the module
parameter is available to return to previous behavior if this proves to
be a problem in some unexpected setup.

Sometimes we need to test a kernel of same version with code or config
option changes.
We already have sysctl to disable module load, but add a kernel
parameter will be more convenient.
Since modules_disabled is int, so here use bint type in core_param.

Pull PCI changes (including maintainer change) from Jesse Barnes:
"This pull has some good cleanups from Bjorn and Yinghai, as well as
some more code from Yinghai to better handle resource re-allocation
when enabled.
There's also a new initcall_debug feature from Arjan which will print
out quirk timing information to help identify slow quirks for fixing
or refinement (Yinghai sent in a few patches to do just that once the
new debug code landed).
Beyond that, I'm handing off PCI maintainership to Bjorn Helgaas.
He's been a core PCI and Linux contributor for some time now, and has
kindly volunteered to take over. I just don't feel I have the time
for PCI review and work that it deserves lately (I've taken on some
other projects), and haven't been as responsive lately as I'd like, so
I approached Bjorn asking if he'd like to manage things. He's going
to give it a try, and I'm confident he'll do at least as well as I
have in keeping the tree managed, patches flowing, and keeping things

New features include:
- Add NFS client support for containers.
This should enable most of the necessary functionality, including
lockd support, and support for rpc.statd, NFSv4 idmapper and
RPCSEC_GSS upcalls into the correct network namespace from
which the mount system call was issued.
- NFSv4 idmapper scalability improvements
Base the idmapper cache on the keyring interface to allow concurrent
access to idmapper entries. Start the process of migrating users from
the single-threaded daemon-based approach to the multi-threaded
request-key based approach.
- NFSv4.1 implementation id.
Allows the NFSv4.1 client and server to mutually identify each other
for logging and debugging purposes.
- Support the 'vers=4.1' mount option for mounting NFSv4.1 instead of
having to use the more counterintuitive 'vers=4,minorversion=1'.
- SUNRPC tracepoints.
Start the process of adding tracepoints in order to improve debugging
of the RPC layer.
- pNFS object layout support for autologin.
Important bugfixes include:
- Fix a bug in rpc_wake_up/rpc_wake_up_status that caused them to fail
to wake up all tasks when applied to priority waitqueues.
- Ensure that we handle read delegations correctly, when we try to
truncate a file.
- A number of fixes for NFSv4 state manager loops (mostly to do with
delegation recovery).

Pull drm main changes from Dave Airlie:
"This is the main drm pull request, I'm probably going to send two more
smaller ones, will explain below.
This contains a patch that is also in the fbdev tree, but it should be
the same patch, it added an API for hot unplugging framebuffer
devices, and I need that API for a new driver.
It also contains some changes to the i2c tree which Jean has acked,
and one change to moorestown platform stuff in x86.
Highlights:
- new drivers: UDL driver for USB displaylink devices, kms only,
should support correct hotplug operations.
- core: i2c speedups + better hotplug support, EDID overriding via
firmware interface - allows user to load a firmware for a broken
monitor/kvm from userspace, it even has documentation for it.
- exynos: new HDMI audio + hdmi 1.4 + virtual output driver
- gma500: code cleanup
- radeon: cleanups, CS optimisations, streamout support and pageflip
fix
- nouveau: NVD9 displayport support + more reclocking work
- i915: re-enabling GMBUS, finish gpu patch (might help hibernation
who knows), missed irq fixes, stencil tiling fixes, interlaced
support, aliasesd PPGTT support for SNB/IVB, swizzling for SNB/IVB,
semaphore fixes
As well as the usual bunch of cleanups and fixes all over the place.
I've got two things I'd like to merge a bit later:
a) AMD support for all their new radeonhd 7000 series GPU and APUs.
AMD dropped this a bit late due to insane internal review
processes, (please AMD just follow Intel and let open source guys
ship stuff early) however I don't want to penalise people who own
this hardware (since its been on sale for 3-4 months and GPU hw
doesn't exactly have a lifetime in years) and consign them to
using closed drivers for longer than necessary. The changes are
well contained and just plug into the driver new gpu functionality
so they should be fairly regression proof. I just want to give
them a bit of a run on the hw AMD kindly sent me.
b) drm prime/dma-buf interface code. This is just infrastructure
code to expose the dma-buf stuff to drm drivers and to userspace.
I'm not planning on pushing any driver support in this cycle
(except maybe exynos), but I'd like to get the infrastructure code
in so for the next cycle I can start getting the driver support
into the individual drivers. We have started driver support for
i915, nouveau and udl along with I think exynos and omap in
staging. However this code relies on the dma-buf tree being
pulled into your tree first since it needs the latest interfaces
from that tree. I'll push to get that tree sent asap.
(oh and any warnings you see in i915 are gcc's fault from what anyone
can see)."

The pnfs-objects protocol mandates that we autologin into devices not
present in the system, according to information specified in the
get_device_info returned from the server.
The Protocol specifies two login hints.
1. An IP address:port combination
2. A string URI which is constructed as a URL with a protocol prefix
followed by :// and a string as address. For each protocol prefix
the string-address format might be different.
We only support the second option. The first option is just redundant
to the second one.
NOTE: The Kernel part of autologin does not parse the URI string. It
just channels it to a user-mode script. So any new login protocols should
only update the user-mode script which is a part of the nfs-utils package,
but the Kernel need not change.
We implement the autologin by using the call_usermodehelper() API.
(Thanks to Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> for pointing it out)
So there is no running daemon needed, and/or special setup.
We Add the osd_login_prog Kernel module parameters which defaults to:
/sbin/osd_login
Kernel try's to upcall the program specified in osd_login_prog. If the file is
not found or the execution fails Kernel will disable any farther upcalls, by
zeroing out osd_login_prog, Until Admin re-enables it by setting the
osd_login_prog parameter to a proper program.

Broken monitors and/or broken graphic boards may send erroneous or no
EDID data. This also applies to broken KVM devices that are unable to
correctly forward the EDID data of the connected monitor but invent
their own fantasy data.
This patch allows to specify an EDID data set to be used instead of
probing the monitor for it. It contains built-in data sets of frequently
used screen resolutions. In addition, a particular EDID data set may be
provided in the /lib/firmware directory and loaded via the firmware
interface. The name is passed to the kernel as module parameter of the
drm_kms_helper module either when loaded
options drm_kms_helper edid_firmware=edid/1280x1024.bin
or as kernel commandline parameter
drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/1280x1024.bin
It is also possible to restrict the usage of a specified EDID data set
to a particular connector. This is done by prepending the name of the
connector to the name of the EDID data set using the syntax
edid_firmware=[<connector>:]<edid>
such as, for example,
edid_firmware=DVI-I-1:edid/1920x1080.bin
in which case no other connector will be affected.
The built-in data sets are
Resolution Name
--------------------------------
1024x768 edid/1024x768.bin
1280x1024 edid/1280x1024.bin
1680x1050 edid/1680x1050.bin
1920x1080 edid/1920x1080.bin
They are ignored, if a file with the same name is available in the
/lib/firmware directory.
The built-in EDID data sets are based on standard timings that may not
apply to a particular monitor and even crash it. Ideally, EDID data of
the connected monitor should be used. They may be obtained through the
drm/cardX/cardX-<connector>/edid entry in the /sys/devices PCI directory
of a correctly working graphics adapter.
It is even possible to specify the name of an EDID data set on-the-fly
via the /sys/module interface, e.g.
echo edid/myedid.bin >/sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/edid_firmware
The new screen mode is considered when the related kernel function is
called for the first time after the change. Such calls are made when the
X server is started or when the display settings dialog is opened in an
already running X server.

Following the documentation of the Legacy Backlight Brightness (LBB)
Register in the configuration space of some Intel PCI graphics adapters,
setting the LBB register with the value 0x0 causes the backlight to be
turned off, and 0xFF causes the backlight to be set to 100% intensity
(http://download.intel.com/embedded/processors/Whitepaper/324567.pdf).
The Acer Aspire 5734Z, however, turns the backlight off at 0xFF and sets
it to maximum intensity at 0. In consequence, the screen of this systems
becomes dark at an early boot stage which makes it unusable. The same
inversion applies to the BLC_PWM_CTL I915 register. This problem was
introduced in kernel version 2.6.38 when the PCI device of this system
was first supported by the i915 KMS module.
This patch adds a parameter to the i915 module to enable inversion of
the brightness variable (i915.invert_brightness).

Since commit 04c6862c05 ("kmsg_dump: add kmsg_dump() calls to the
reboot, halt, poweroff and emergency_restart paths"), kmsg_dump() gets
run on normal paths including poweroff and reboot.
This is less than ideal given pstore implementations that can only
represent single backtraces, since a reboot may overwrite a stored oops
before it's been picked up by userspace. In addition, some pstore
backends may have low performance and provide a significant delay in
reboot as a result.
This patch adds a printk.always_kmsg_dump kernel parameter (which can also
be changed from userspace). Without it, the code will only be run on
failure paths rather than on normal paths. The option can be enabled in
environments where there's a desire to attempt to audit whether or not a
reboot was cleanly requested or not.

There are PCIe devices on the market that report ARI support but
then fail to initialize correctly when ARI is actually used. This
leads to situations in which kernels 2.6.34 and newer fail to handle
systems where the previous kernels worked without any apparent
problems. Unfortunately, it is currently unknown how many such
devices are there.
For this reason, introduce a new kernel command line option,
pci=noari, allowing users to disable PCIe ARI altogether if they
see problems with PCIe device initialization.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC configured, the CPU will generate an exception
on access (read,write) to an unallocated page, which permits us to catch
code which corrupts memory. However the kernel is trying to maximise
memory usage, hence there are usually few free pages in the system and
buggy code usually corrupts some crucial data.
This patch changes the buddy allocator to keep more free/protected pages
and to interlace free/protected and allocated pages to increase the
probability of catching corruption.
When the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
debug_guardpage_minorder defines the minimum order used by the page
allocator to grant a request. The requested size will be returned with
the remaining pages used as guard pages.
The default value of debug_guardpage_minorder is zero: no change from
current behaviour.

Now that the use of numeric uids/gids is officially sanctioned in
RFC3530bis, it is time to change the default here to 'enabled'.
By doing so, we ensure that NFSv4 copies the behaviour of NFSv3 when we're
using the default AUTH_SYS authentication (i.e. when the client uses the
numeric uids/gids as authentication tokens), so that when new files are
created, they will appear to have the correct user/group.
It also fixes a number of backward compatibility issues when migrating
from NFSv3 to NFSv4 on a platform where the server uses different uid/gid
mappings than the client.
Note also that this setting has been successfully tested against servers
that do not support numeric uids/gids at several Connectathon/Bakeathon
events at this point, and the fall back to using string names/groups has
been shown to work well in all those test cases.

With this patch the OProfile Basic Mode Sampling support for System z
is enhanced with a counter file system. That way hardware sampling
can be configured using the user space tools with only little
modifications.
With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are
returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides
the hardware sampling facility. Existing user space tools will
complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with
existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been
added. Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to
return `timer' as cpu_type. The module will still try to use hardware
sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be
also be available for configuration. So this has a different effect
than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'.
If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the
cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide
the following virtual filesystem:
/dev/oprofile/0/enabled
/dev/oprofile/0/event
/dev/oprofile/0/count
/dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask
/dev/oprofile/0/kernel
/dev/oprofile/0/user
In the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count',
'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything
else must contain fixed values.
The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value
0.
The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed
to the CPU measurement facility.
The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples
when using hardware sampling.
Additionally also the following file will be created:
/dev/oprofile/timer/enabled
This will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0
is not accepted without hardware sampling.
