Rafael J. Wysocki 5a2eb8585f PM: Add facility for advanced testing of async suspend/resume
Add configuration switch CONFIG_PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG for compiling in
extra PM debugging/testing code allowing one to access some
PM-related attributes of devices from the user space via sysfs.

If CONFIG_PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG is set, add sysfs attribute power/async
for every device allowing the user space to access the device's
power.async_suspend flag and modify it, if desired.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh b525c06cdb thinkpad-acpi: lock down video output state access
Given the right combination of ThinkPad and X.org, just reading the
video output control state is enough to hard-crash X.org.

Until the day I somehow find out a model or BIOS cut date to not
provide this feature to ThinkPads that can do video switching through
X RandR, change permissions so that only processes with CAP_SYS_ADMIN
can access any sort of video output control state.

This bug could be considered a local DoS I suppose, as it allows any
non-privledged local user to cause some versions of X.org to
hard-crash some ThinkPads.

Ian Campbell 1431559200 x86, mm: Allow highmem user page tables to be disabled at boot time
Distros generally (I looked at Debian, RHEL5 and SLES11) seem to
enable CONFIG_HIGHPTE for any x86 configuration which has highmem
enabled. This means that the overhead applies even to machines which
have a fairly modest amount of high memory and which therefore do not
really benefit from allocating PTEs in high memory but still pay the
price of the additional mapping operations.

Running kernbench on a 4G box I found that with CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but
no actual highptes being allocated there was a reduction in system
time used from 59.737s to 55.9s.

With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y and highmem PTEs being allocated:
  Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation):
  Elapsed Time 175.396 (0.238914)
  User Time 515.983 (5.85019)
  System Time 59.737 (1.26727)
  Percent CPU 263.8 (71.6796)
  Context Switches 39989.7 (4672.64)
  Sleeps 42617.7 (246.307)

With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but with no highmem PTEs being allocated:
  Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation):
  Elapsed Time 174.278 (0.831968)
  User Time 515.659 (6.07012)
  System Time 55.9 (1.07799)
  Percent CPU 263.8 (71.266)
  Context Switches 39929.6 (4485.13)
  Sleeps 42583.7 (373.039)

This patch allows the user to control the allocation of PTEs in
highmem from the command line ("userpte=nohigh") but retains the
status-quo as the default.

It is possible that some simple heuristic could be developed which
allows auto-tuning of this option however I don't have a sufficiently
large machine available to me to perform any particularly meaningful
experiments. We could probably handwave up an argument for a threshold
at 16G of total RAM.

Assuming 768M of lowmem we have 196608 potential lowmem PTE
pages. Each page can map 2M of RAM in a PAE-enabled configuration,
meaning a maximum of 384G of RAM could potentially be mapped using
lowmem PTEs.

Even allowing generous factor of 10 to account for other required
lowmem allocations, generous slop to account for page sharing (which
reduces the total amount of RAM mappable by a given number of PT
pages) and other innacuracies in the estimations it would seem that
even a 32G machine would not have a particularly pressing need for
highmem PTEs. I think 32G could be considered to be at the upper bound
of what might be sensible on a 32 bit machine (although I think in
practice 64G is still supported).

It's seems questionable if HIGHPTE is even a win for any amount of RAM
you would sensibly run a 32 bit kernel on rather than going 64 bit.

Bjorn Helgaas 7bc5e3f2be x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info by default on 2008 and newer machines
The main benefit of using ACPI host bridge window information is that
we can do better resource allocation in systems with multiple host bridges,
e.g., http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14183

Sometimes we need _CRS information even if we only have one host bridge,
e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341681

Most of these systems are relatively new, so this patch turns on
"pci=use_crs" only on machines with a BIOS date of 2008 or newer.

Rafael J. Wysocki c39fae1416 PCI PM: Make it possible to force using INTx for PCIe PME signaling
Apparently, some machines may have problems with PCI run-time power
management if MSIs are used for the native PCIe PME signaling.  In
particular, on the MSI Wind U-100 PCIe PME interrupts are not
generated by a PCIe root port after a resume from suspend to RAM, if
the system wake-up was triggered by a PME from the device attached to
this port.  [It doesn't help to free the interrupt on suspend and
request it back on resume, even if that is done along with disabling
the MSI and re-enabling it, respectively.]  However, if INTx
interrupts are used for this purpose on the same machine, everything
works just fine.

For this reason, add a kernel command line switch allowing one to
request that MSIs be not used for the native PCIe PME signaling,
introduce a DMI table allowing us to blacklist machines that need
this switch to be set by default and put the MSI Wind U-100 into this
table.

Rafael J. Wysocki c7f486567c PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver
PCIe native PME detection mechanism is based on interrupts generated
by root ports or event collectors every time a PCIe device sends a
PME message upstream.

Once a PME message has been sent by an endpoint device and received
by its root port (or event collector in the case of root complex
integrated endpoints), the Requester ID from the message header is
registered in the root port's Root Status register.  At the same
time, the PME Status bit of the Root Status register is set to
indicate that there's a PME to handle.  If PCIe PME interrupt is
enabled for the root port, it generates an interrupt once the PME
Status has been set.  After receiving the interrupt, the kernel can
identify the PCIe device that generated the PME using the Requester
ID from the root port's Root Status register. [For details, see PCI
Express Base Specification, Rev. 2.0.]

Implement a driver for the PCIe PME root port service working in
accordance with the above description.

Based on a patch from Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com>.

Add a model quirk for the NVIDIA based Macmini hardware, aka Macmini 3,1. The
pinout is almost identical to the mb5 quirk, except for no microphone and
the line-in mixer controls being on a different index. Everything works in
2ch mode, but as I am not sure what needs to be changed for 6ch mode, or
whether the Mac Mini's chip supports 6ch mode, I have simply duplicated
the code from the mb5 quirk for the mac mini chmode management. The new
model parameter for this quirk is "macmini3".

Russell King 4b3073e1c5 MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself
On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.

This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().

Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():

  On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
  to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
  more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
  pte_t?

Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:

  Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
  -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
  for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
  _PAGE_EXEC.

So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

Russell King d944d549aa ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel boot
Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot.  This can prevent systems booting properly.

There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.

So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

This requires knowledge of the system capacity when attempting to

scalability of code that operates on individual nodes, or very small
nodes to find bugs in the VM.

This patch introduces numa=fake=<size>[MG] so it is possible to specify
the size of each node to allocate.  When used, nodes of the size
specified will be allocated and interleaved over the set of physical
nodes.

EINVAL is no longer returned.

This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made
when the length is <= 0.

Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the

Early on this was an experimental facility that few
people other than Alexey Kuznetsov played with.

Now it's a pretty fundamental thing and as people add
more features to AF_PACKET sockets this config options
creates ifdef spaghetti.

So kill it off.

Ira Snyder d3f620b2c4 fsldma: simplify IRQ probing and handling
The IRQ probing is needlessly complex. All off the 83xx device trees in
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ specify 5 interrupts per DMA controller: one for the
controller, and one for each channel. These interrupts are all attached to
the same IRQ line.

This causes an interesting situation if two channels interrupt at the same
time. The per-controller handler will handle the first channel, and the
per-channel handler will handle the remaining channels.

Instead of this mess, we fix the bug in the per-controller handler, and
make it handle all channels that generated an interrupt. When a
per-controller handler is specified in the device tree, we prefer to use
the shared handler instead of the per-channel handler.

The 85xx/86xx controllers do not have a per-controller interrupt, and
instead use a per-channel interrupt. This behavior has not been changed.

James Bottomley 9df5f74194 mm: add coherence API for DMA to vmalloc/vmap areas
On Virtually Indexed architectures (which don't do automatic alias
resolution in their caches), we have to flush via the correct
virtual address to prepare pages for DMA.  On some architectures
(like arm) we cannot prevent the CPU from doing data movein along
the alias (and thus giving stale read data), so we not only have to
introduce a flush API to push dirty cache lines out, but also an invalidate
API to kill inconsistent cache lines that may have moved in before
DMA changed the data

Naga Chumbalkar 0f1d683fb3 [CPUFREQ] Processor Clocking Control interface driver
Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the BIOS and OSPM.
Based on the server workload, OSPM can request what frequency it expects
from a logical CPU, and the BIOS will achieve that frequency transparently.

This patch introduces driver support for PCC. OSPM uses the PCC driver to
communicate with the BIOS via the PCC interface.

There is a Documentation file that provides a link to the PCC
Specification, and also provides a summary of the PCC interface.

Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. However,
any platform whose BIOS implements the PCC Specification, can utilize this
driver.

V2 --> V1 changes (based on Dominik's suggestions):
- Removed the dependency on CPU_FREQ_TABLE
- "cpufreq_stats" will no longer PANIC. Actually, it will not load anymore
because it is not applicable.
- Removed the sanity check for target frequency in the ->target routine.

NOTE: A patch to sanitize the target frequency requested by "ondemand" is
needed to ensure that the target freq < policy->min.

Can this driver be queued up for the 2.6.33 tree?

3c509 was changed to support ethtool in 2002, making the 'xcvr' module
parameter obsolete in most cases.  More recently 3c509 was converted
to the modern driver model and this parameter was removed.  Fix the
documentation to refer to ethtool rather than the module parameter.

KOSAKI Motohiro 1306d603fc proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack information for threads"
Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced
to show stack information in /proc/{pid}/status.  But it cause large
performance regression.  Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps
command too and ps is one of most important component.  Because both to
take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation.

If many process run, the ps performance is,

[before d899bf7b]

% perf stat ps >/dev/null

Thus, this patch revert it. Fortunately /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/smaps
provide almost same information. we can use it.

Commit d899bf7b introduced two features:

 1) Add the annotattion of [thread stack: xxxx] mark to
    /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/maps.
 2) Add StackUsage field to /proc/{pid}/status.

I only revert (2), because I haven't seen (1) cause regression.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer 65324144b5 net: RFC3069, private VLAN proxy arp support
This is to be used together with switch technologies, like RFC3069,
that where the individual ports are not allowed to communicate with
each other, but they are allowed to talk to the upstream router.  As
described in RFC 3069, it is possible to allow these hosts to
communicate through the upstream router by proxy_arp'ing.

This patch basically allow proxy arp replies back to the same
interface (from which the ARP request/solicitation was received).

Tunable per device via proc "proxy_arp_pvlan":
  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/proxy_arp_pvlan

This switch technology is known by different vendor names:
 - In RFC 3069 it is called VLAN Aggregation.
 - Cisco and Allied Telesyn call it Private VLAN.
 - Hewlett-Packard call it Source-Port filtering or port-isolation.
 - Ericsson call it MAC-Forced Forwarding (RFC Draft).

Phil Carmody 099c2f21d8 Driver core: driver_attribute parameters can often be const*
Many struct driver_attribute descriptors are purely read-only
structures, and there's no need to change them. Therefore make
the promise not to, which will let those descriptors be put in
a ro section.

Phil Carmody 26579ab70a Driver core: device_attribute parameters can often be const*
Most device_attributes are const, and are begging to be
put in a ro section. However, the create and remove
file interfaces were failing to propagate the const promise
which the only functions they call offer.

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 8e9b936226 Doc/stable rules: add new cherry-pick logic
- it is possible to submit patches for the stable queue without sending
  them directly stable@kernel.org. If the tag (Cc: stable@kernel.org) is
  available in the sign-off area than hpa's script will filter them into
  the stable mailbox once it hits Linus' tree.
- Patches which require others to be applied first can be also specified.
  This was discussued in http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/9/474

Rafael J. Wysocki a6ab7aa9f4 PM / Runtime: Use device type and device class callbacks
The power management of some devices is handled through device types
and device classes rather than through bus types.  Since these
devices may also benefit from using the run-time power management
core, extend it so that the device type and device class run-time PM
callbacks can be taken into consideration by it if the bus type
callback is not defined.

Update the run-time PM core documentation to reflect this change.

This patch provides infrastructure for machine translation of the
regulatory rules database used by CRDA into a C data structure.
It includes code for searching that database as an alternative
to dynamic regulatory rules updates via CRDA.  Most people should
use CRDA instead of this infrastructure, but it provides a better
alternative than the WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY infrastructure (which
can now be removed).

Andi Kleen facb6011f3 HWPOISON: Add soft page offline support
This is a simpler, gentler variant of memory_failure() for soft page
offlining controlled from user space.  It doesn't kill anything, just
tries to invalidate and if that doesn't work migrate the
page away.

This is useful for predictive failure analysis, where a page has
a high rate of corrected errors, but hasn't gone bad yet. Instead
it can be offlined early and avoided.

The offlining is controlled from sysfs, including a new generic
entry point for hard page offlining for symmetry too.

We use the page isolate facility to prevent re-allocation
race. Normally this is only used by memory hotplug. To avoid
races with memory allocation I am using lock_system_sleep().
This avoids the situation where memory hotplug is about
to isolate a page range and then hwpoison undoes that work.
This is a big hammer currently, but the simplest solution
currently.

When the page is not free or LRU we try to free pages
from slab and other caches. The slab freeing is currently
quite dumb and does not try to focus on the specific slab
cache which might own the page. This could be potentially
improved later.

Thanks to Fengguang Wu and Haicheng Li for some fixes.

Andi Kleen 4fd466eb46 HWPOISON: add memory cgroup filter
The hwpoison test suite need to inject hwpoison to a collection of
selected task pages, and must not touch pages not owned by them and
thus kill important system processes such as init. (But it's OK to
mis-hwpoison free/unowned pages as well as shared clean pages.
Mis-hwpoison of shared dirty pages will kill all tasks, so the test
suite will target all or non of such tasks in the first place.)

The memory cgroup serves this purpose well. We can put the target
processes under the control of a memory cgroup, and tell the hwpoison
injection code to only kill pages associated with some active memory
cgroup.

The prerequisite for doing hwpoison stress tests with mem_cgroup is,
the mem_cgroup code tracks task pages _accurately_ (unless page is
locked).  Which we believe is/should be true.

The benefits are simplification of hwpoison injector code. Also the
mem_cgroup code will automatically be tested by hwpoison test cases.

The alternative interfaces pin-pfn/unpin-pfn can also delegate the
(process and page flags) filtering functions reliably to user space.
However prototype implementation shows that this scheme adds more
complexity than we wanted.

Example test case:

	mkdir /cgroup/hwpoison

	usemem -m 100 -s 1000 &
	echo `jobs -p` > /cgroup/hwpoison/tasks

	memcg_ino=$(ls -id /cgroup/hwpoison | cut -f1 -d' ')
	echo $memcg_ino > /debug/hwpoison/corrupt-filter-memcg

	page-types -p `pidof init`   --hwpoison  # shall do nothing
	page-types -p `pidof usemem` --hwpoison  # poison its pages

Wu Fengguang 478c5ffc0b HWPOISON: add page flags filter
When specified, only poison pages if ((page_flags & mask) == value).

-       corrupt-filter-flags-mask
-       corrupt-filter-flags-value

This allows stress testing of many kinds of pages.

Strictly speaking, the buddy pages requires taking zone lock, to avoid
setting PG_hwpoison on a "was buddy but now allocated to someone" page.
However we can just do nothing because we set PG_locked in the beginning,
this prevents the page allocator from allocating it to someone. (It will
BUG() on the unexpected PG_locked, which is fine for hwpoison testing.)

Wu Fengguang 31d3d3484f HWPOISON: limit hwpoison injector to known page types
__memory_failure()'s workflow is

	set PG_hwpoison
	//...
	unset PG_hwpoison if didn't pass hwpoison filter

That could kill unrelated process if it happens to page fault on the
page with the (temporary) PG_hwpoison. The race should be big enough to
appear in stress tests.

Fix it by grabbing the page and checking filter at inject time.  This
also avoids the very noisy "Injecting memory failure..." messages.

- we don't touch madvise() based injection, because the filters are
  generally not necessary for it.
- if we want to apply the filters to h/w aided injection, we'd better to
  rearrange the logic in __memory_failure() instead of this patch.

Filesystem data/metadata present the most tricky-to-isolate pages.
It requires careful code review and stress testing to get them right.

The fs/device filter helps to target the stress tests to some specific
filesystem pages. The filter condition is block device's major/minor
numbers:
        - corrupt-filter-dev-major
        - corrupt-filter-dev-minor
When specified (non -1), only page cache pages that belong to that
device will be poisoned.

The filters are checked reliably on the locked and refcounted page.

The unpoisoning interface is useful for stress testing tools to

There is no hardware level unpoisioning, so this
cannot be used for real memory errors, only for software injected errors.

Note that it may leak pages silently - those who have been removed from
LRU cache, but not isolated from page cache/swap cache at hwpoison time.
Especially the stress test of dirty swap cache pages shall reboot system
before exhausting memory.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh c7ac6291ea thinkpad-acpi: disable volume control
Disable volume control by default.  It can be enabled at module load
time by a module parameter (volume_control=1).

The audio control mixer that thinkpad-acpi interacts with is fully
functional without any drivers, and operated by hotkeys.

The idea behind the console audio control is that the human operator
is the only one that can interact with it.  The ThinkVantage suite in
Windows does not allow any software-based overrides, and only does OSD
(on-screen-display) functions.

The Linux driver will, with the addition of the ALSA interface, try to
follow and enforce the ThinkVantage UI design:

The user is supposed to use the keyboard hotkeys to interact with the
console audio control.  The kernel and the desktop environment is
supposed to cooperate to provide proper user feedback through
on-screen-display functions.

Distros are urged to not to enable volume control by default.
Enabling this must be a local admin's decision.  This is the reason
why there is no Kconfig option.

Keep in mind that all ThinkPads have a normal, main mixer (AC97 or
HDA) for regular software-based audio control.  We are not talking
about that mixer here.

Advanced users are, of course, free to enable volume control and do as
they please.

Lenovo removed the extra mixer since the T61 and thereabouts.
Newer Lenovo models only have the mute gate function, and leave
the volume control to the HDA mixer.

Until a way to automatically query the firmware about its audio
control capabilities is discovered (there might not be any), use a
white/black list.

We will likely need to ask T60 (old and new model) and Z60/Z61 users
whether they have volume control to populate the black/white list.
Meanwhile, provide a volume_capabilities parameter that can be used to
override the defaults.

I don't trust the coupled EC writes and SMI calls the current volume

seem to do (they never do more than a single step though).

Change the driver to stop issuing SMIs, and just drive the EC directly
to the desired level (DSDTs seem to confirm this will work even on
very old models like the 570 and 600e/x).

We checkpoint directly to NVRAM (this can be turned off) at
suspend/shutdown/driver unload, which from what I can see in tbp,
should also work on every ThinkPad.

Amerigo Wang 948c1e2521 kallsyms: remove deprecated print_fn_descriptor_symbol()
According to feature-removal-schedule.txt, it is the time to remove
print_fn_descriptor_symbol().

And a quick grep shows that it no longer has any callers.

john stultz 4614a696bd procfs: allow threads to rename siblings via /proc/pid/tasks/tid/comm
Setting a thread's comm to be something unique is a very useful ability
and is helpful for debugging complicated threaded applications.  However
currently the only way to set a thread name is for the thread to name
itself via the PR_SET_NAME prctl.

However, there may be situations where it would be advantageous for a
thread dispatcher to be naming the threads its managing, rather then
having the threads self-describe themselves.  This sort of behavior is
available on other systems via the pthread_setname_np() interface.

This patch exports a task's comm via proc/pid/comm and
proc/pid/task/tid/comm interfaces, and allows thread siblings to write to
these values.

Jie Zhang ea63763959 nommu: fix malloc performance by adding uninitialized flag
The NOMMU code currently clears all anonymous mmapped memory.  While this
is what we want in the default case, all memory allocation from userspace
under NOMMU has to go through this interface, including malloc() which is
allowed to return uninitialized memory.  This can easily be a significant
performance penalty.  So for constrained embedded systems were security is
irrelevant, allow people to avoid clearing memory unnecessarily.

This also alters the ELF-FDPIC binfmt such that it obtains uninitialised
memory for the brk and stack region.

Hugh Dickins d0f209f68f ksm: remove unswappable max_kernel_pages
Now that ksm pages are swappable, and the known holes plugged, remove
mention of unswappable kernel pages from KSM documentation and comments.

Remove the totalram_pages/4 initialization of max_kernel_pages.  In fact,
remove max_kernel_pages altogether - we can reinstate it if removal turns
out to break someone's script; but if we later want to limit KSM's memory
usage, limiting the stable nodes would not be an effective approach.

Alex Chiang dee5d0d518 mm: add numa node symlink for memory section in sysfs
Commit c04fc586c (mm: show node to memory section relationship with
symlinks in sysfs) created symlinks from nodes to memory sections, e.g.

/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135

If you're examining the memory section though and are wondering what node
it might belong to, you can find it by grovelling around in sysfs, but
it's a little cumbersome.

Add a reverse symlink for each memory section that points back to the
node to which it belongs.

Lee Schermerhorn 4faf8d950e hugetlb: handle memory hot-plug events
Register per node hstate attributes only for nodes with memory.  As
suggested by David Rientjes.

With Memory Hotplug, memory can be added to a memoryless node and a node
with memory can become memoryless.  Therefore, add a memory on/off-line
notifier callback to [un]register a node's attributes on transition
to/from memoryless state.

N.B.,  Only tested build, boot, libhugetlbfs regression.
       i.e., no memory hotplug testing.

Register per node hstate sysfs attributes only for nodes with memory.
Global replacement of 'all online nodes" with "all nodes with memory" in
mm/hugetlb.c.  Suggested by David Rientjes.

A subsequent patch will handle adding/removing of per node hstate sysfs
attributes when nodes transition to/from memoryless state via memory
hotplug.

NOTE: this patch has not been tested with memoryless nodes.
