Linus Torvalds 92400b8c8b Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Lots of tidying up changes all across the map for Linux's formal
   memory/locking-model tooling, by Alan Stern, Akira Yokosawa, Andrea
   Parri, Paul E. McKenney and SeongJae Park.

   Notable changes beyond an overall update in the tooling itself is the
   tidying up of spin_is_locked() semantics, which spills over into the
   kernel proper as well.

 - qspinlock improvements: the locking algorithm now guarantees forward
   progress whereas the previous implementation in mainline could starve
   threads indefinitely in cmpxchg() loops. Also other related cleanups
   to the qspinlock code (Will Deacon)

 - misc smaller improvements, cleanups and fixes all across the locking
   subsystem

Linus Torvalds eeee3149aa There's been a fair amount of work in the docs tree this time around,
including:
 
  - Extensive RST conversions and organizational work in the
    memory-management docs thanks to Mike Rapoport.
 
  - An update of Documentation/features from Andrea Parri and a script to
    keep it updated.
 
  - Various LICENSES updates from Thomas, along with a script to check SPDX
    tags.
 
  - Work to fix dangling references to documentation files; this involved a
    fair number of one-liner comment changes outside of Documentation/
 
 ...and the usual list of documentation improvements, typo fixes, etc.

From now on, I'll start using my @kernel.org as my development e-mail.

As such, let's remove the entries that point to the old
mchehab@s-opensource.com at MAINTAINERS file.

For the files written with a copyright with mchehab@s-opensource,
let's keep Samsung on their names, using mchehab+samsung@kernel.org,
in order to keep pointing to my employer, with sponsors the work.

For the files written before I join Samsung (on July, 4 2013),
let's just use mchehab@kernel.org.

For bug reports, we can simply point to just kernel.org, as
this will reach my mchehab+samsung inbox anyway.

Linus Torvalds ab486bc9a5 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Add a console_msg_format command line option:

     The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
     value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
     level>[timestamp] text" format.

     This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
     example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
     at hands.

 - Reduce the risk of softlockup:

     Pass the console owner in a busy loop.

     This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
     Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
     the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
     On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
     a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
     console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
     the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
     waiter.

     The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
     Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
     when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
     much to flush.

     There is increasing number of people having problems with
     printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
     solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
     direction.

 - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():

     This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
     to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
     This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
     above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.

 - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:

     It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
     descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
     transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.

     Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
     a special elf section and could be easily detected.

 - Remove printk_symbol() API:

     It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
     helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.

 - Remove redundant memsets:

     Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
     command line option.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk: (27 commits)

Sergey Senozhatsky d2279c9d7f kallsyms: remove print_symbol() function
No more print_symbol()/__print_symbol() users left, remove these
symbols.

It was a very old API that encouraged people use continuous lines.
It had been obsoleted by %pS format specifier in a normal printk()
call.

Linus Torvalds b630a23a73 This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15
kernel cycle:
 
 Core:
 
 - The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into
   a menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of
   making the subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is
   happening because of two things:
 
   - Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers
     in a way that is affecting users directly. This happens
     on the highly integrated laptop chipsets named after
     geographical places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake,
     cedarfork, cherryview, denverton, geminilake, lewisburg,
     merrifield, sunrisepoint... It started a while back and
     now it is ever more evident that this is crucial
     infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an embedded

Merge tag 'pinctrl-v4.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:

  Core:

   - The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a
     menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the
     subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of
     two things:

      (a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in
          a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the
          highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical
          places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview,
          denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint...
          It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that
          this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an
          embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware.

      (b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic.
          Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are
          expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in

Will Deacon 59ecbbe7b3 locking/barriers: Kill lockless_dereference()
lockless_dereference() is a nice idea, but it gained little traction in
kernel code since its introduction three years ago. This is partly
because it's a pain to type, but also because using READ_ONCE() instead
has worked correctly on all architectures apart from Alpha, which is a
fully supported but somewhat niche architecture these days.

Now that READ_ONCE() has been upgraded to contain an implicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and the few callers of lockless_dereference()
have been converted, we can remove lockless_dereference() altogether.

Linus Walleij a9a1d2a782 pinctrl/gpio: Unify namespace for cross-calls
The pinctrl_request_gpio() and pinctrl_free_gpio() break the nice
namespacing in the other cross-calls like pinctrl_gpio_foo().
Just rename them and all references so we have one namespace
with all cross-calls under pinctrl_gpio_*().
