The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
drivers/vme/Kconfig:menuconfig VME_BUS
drivers/vme/Kconfig: bool "VME bridge support"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
We replace module.h and moduleparam.h (unused) with init.h and also
export.h ; the latter since this file does export some syms.
Since this is a struct bus_type and not a platform_driver, we don't
have any ".suppress_bind_attrs" to be concerned about when we
drop the ".remove" code from this file.
Since module_init was not in use by this code, the init ordering
remains unchanged with this commit.

Make the location monitor callback function prototype more useful by
changing the argument from an integer to a void pointer.
All VME bridge drivers were simply passing the location monitor index
(e.g. 0-3) as the argument to these callbacks. It is much more useful
to pass back a pointer to data that the callback-registering driver
cares about.
There appear to be no in-kernel callers of vme_lm_attach (or
vme_lme_request for that matter), so this change only affects the VME
subsystem and bridge drivers.

The ETM registers are classified into 2 categories: trace and management.
The core power domain contains most of the trace unit logic including
all(except TRCOSLAR and TRCOSLSR) the trace registers. The debug power
domain contains the external debugger interface including all management
registers.
This patch adds coresight unit specific function coresight_simple_func

read function which does smp cross call to ensure the trace core is

The Coresight ETMv4 architecture provides a way to request to keep the
power to the trace unit. This might help to collect the traces without
the need to disable the CPU power management(entering/exiting deeper
idle states).
Trace PowerDown Control Register provides powerup request bit which when
set requests the system to retain power to the trace unit and emulate
the powerdown request.
Typically, a trace unit drives a signal to the power controller to
request that the trace unit core power domain is powered up. However,
if the trace unit and the CPU are in the same power domain then the
implementation might combine the trace unit power up status with a
signal from the CPU.
This patch requests to retain power to the trace unit when active and
to remove when inactive. Note this change will only request but the
behaviour depends on the implementation. However, it matches the
exact behaviour expected when the external debugger is connected with
respect to CPU power states.

This is a cleanup patch.
coresight_device->conns holds an array to point to the devices
connected to the OUT ports of a component. Sinks, e.g ETR, do not
have an OUT port (nr_outport = 0), as it streams the trace to
memory via AXI.
At coresight_register() we do :
conns = kcalloc(csdev->nr_outport, sizeof(*conns), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!conns) {
ret = -ENOMEM;
goto err_kzalloc_conns;
}
For ETR, since the total size requested for kcalloc is zero, the return
value is, ZERO_SIZE_PTR ( != NULL). Hence, csdev->conns = ZERO_SIZE_PTR
which cannot be verified later to contain a valid pointer. The code which
accesses the csdev->conns is bounded by the csdev->nr_outport check,
hence we don't try to dereference the ZERO_SIZE_PTR. This patch cleans
up the csdev->conns initialisation to make sure we initialise it
properly(i.e, either NULL or valid conns array).

I'm observing the following hot add requests from the WS2012 host:
hot_add_req: start_pfn = 0x108200 count = 330752
hot_add_req: start_pfn = 0x158e00 count = 193536
hot_add_req: start_pfn = 0x188400 count = 239616
As the host doesn't specify hot add regions we're trying to create
128Mb-aligned region covering the first request, we create the 0x108000 -
0x160000 region and we add 0x108000 - 0x158e00 memory. The second request
passes the pfn_covered() check, we enlarge the region to 0x108000 -
0x190000 and add 0x158e00 - 0x188200 memory. The problem emerges with the
third request as it starts at 0x188400 so there is a 0x200 gap which is
not covered. As the end of our region is 0x190000 now it again passes the
pfn_covered() check were we just adjust the covered_end_pfn and make it
0x188400 instead of 0x188200 which means that we'll try to online
0x188200-0x188400 pages but these pages were never assigned to us and we
crash.
We can't react to such requests by creating new hot add regions as it may
happen that the whole suggested range falls into the previously identified
128Mb-aligned area so we'll end up adding nothing or create intersecting
regions and our current logic doesn't allow that. Instead, create a list of
such 'gaps' and check for them in the page online callback.

Windows 2012 (non-R2) does not specify hot add region in hot add requests
and the logic in hot_add_req() is trying to find a 128Mb-aligned region
covering the request. It may also happen that host's requests are not 128Mb
aligned and the created ha_region will start before the first specified
PFN. We can't online these non-present pages but we don't remember the real
start of the region.
This is a regression introduced by the commit 5abbbb75d7 ("Drivers: hv:
hv_balloon: don't lose memory when onlining order is not natural"). While
the idea of keeping the 'moving window' was wrong (as there is no guarantee
that hot add requests come ordered) we should still keep track of

KVP daemon does fork()/exec() (with popen()) so we need to close our fds
to avoid sharing them with child processes. The immediate implication of
not doing so I see is SELinux complaining about 'ip' trying to access
'/dev/vmbus/hv_kvp'.

On Hyper-V, performance critical channels use the monitor
mechanism to signal the host when the guest posts mesages
for the host. This mechanism minimizes the hypervisor intercepts
and also makes the host more efficient in that each time the
host is woken up, it processes a batch of messages as opposed to
just one. The goal here is improve the throughput and this is at
the expense of increased latency.
Implement a mechanism to let the client driver decide if latency
is important.

The current delay between retries is unnecessarily high and is negatively
affecting the time it takes to boot the system.

For synthetic NIC channels, enable explicit signaling policy as netvsc wants to
explicitly control when the host is to be signaled.

There is a rare race when we remove an entry from the global list
hv_context.percpu_list[cpu] in hv_process_channel_removal() ->
percpu_channel_deq() -> list_del(): at this time, if vmbus_on_event() ->
process_chn_event() -> pcpu_relid2channel() is trying to query the list,
we can get the kernel fault.
Similarly, we also have the issue in the code path: vmbus_process_offer() ->
percpu_channel_enq().
We can resolve the issue by disabling the tasklet when updating the list.
The patch also moves vmbus_release_relid() to a later place where
the channel has been removed from the per-cpu and the global lists.
