Linus Torvalds bafb0762cb Char/Misc drivers for 4.14-rc1
Here is the big char/misc driver update for 4.14-rc1.
 
 Lots of different stuff in here, it's been an active development cycle
 for some reason.  Highlights are:
   - updated binder driver, this brings binder up to date with what
     shipped in the Android O release, plus some more changes that
     happened since then that are in the Android development trees.
   - coresight updates and fixes
   - mux driver file renames to be a bit "nicer"
   - intel_th driver updates
   - normal set of hyper-v updates and changes
   - small fpga subsystem and driver updates
   - lots of const code changes all over the driver trees
   - extcon driver updates
   - fmc driver subsystem upadates
   - w1 subsystem minor reworks and new features and drivers added
   - spmi driver updates
 
 Plus a smattering of other minor driver updates and fixes.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues for a
 while.

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support

  The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
  hardware features of x86 CPUs:

   - Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
     upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
     and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
     limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
     ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)

     Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
     v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.

     This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
     default.

     (By Kirill A. Shutemov)

   - Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
     upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
     RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
     CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
     encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
     attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
     radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
     decrypt) as well.

     This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
     by default.

     (By Tom Lendacky)

   - Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
     hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
     and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
     switch mm's.

     (By Andy Lutomirski)

  All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
  it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
  are all enabled in v4.14 at once"

Heiko Carstens 3f4298427a s390/vmcp: make use of contiguous memory allocator
If memory is fragmented it is unlikely that large order memory
allocations succeed. This has been an issue with the vmcp device
driver since a long time, since it requires large physical contiguous
memory ares for large responses.

To hopefully resolve this issue make use of the contiguous memory
allocator (cma). This patch adds a vmcp specific vmcp cma area with a
default size of 4MB. The size can be changed either via the
VMCP_CMA_SIZE config option at compile time or with the "vmcp_cma"
kernel parameter (e.g. "vmcp_cma=16m").

For any vmcp response buffers larger than 16k memory from the cma area
will be allocated. If such an allocation fails, there is a fallback to
the buddy allocator.

Rafael J. Wysocki 9d0ef7af1f cpufreq: intel_pstate: Do not use PID-based P-state selection
All systems with a defined ACPI preferred profile that are not
"servers" have been using the load-based P-state selection algorithm
in intel_pstate since 4.12-rc1 (mobile systems and laptops have been
using it since 4.10-rc1) and no problems with it have been reported
to date.  In particular, no regressions with respect to the PID-based
P-state selection have been reported.  Also testing indicates that
the P-state selection algorithm based on CPU load is generally on par
with the PID-based algorithm performance-wise, and for some workloads
it turns out to be better than the other one, while being more
straightforward and easier to understand at the same time.

Moreover, the PID-based P-state selection algorithm in intel_pstate
is known to be unstable in some situation and generally problematic,
the issues with it are hard to address and it has become a
significant maintenance burden.

For these reasons, make intel_pstate use the "powersave" P-state
selection algorithm based on CPU load in the active mode on all
systems and drop the PID-based P-state selection code along with
all things related to it from the driver.  Also update the
documentation accordingly.

kernel built with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, then that CPU's callbacks will
be offloaded, just as if that CPU had also been specified in the

states that the user must keep these two boot parameters manually

Viresh Kumar 2d04503632 cpufreq: governor: Drop min_sampling_rate
The cpufreq core and governors aren't supposed to set a limit on how
fast we want to try changing the frequency. This is currently done for
the legacy governors with help of min_sampling_rate.

At worst, we may end up setting the sampling rate to a value lower than
the rate at which frequency can be changed and then one of the CPUs in
the policy will be only changing frequency for ever.

But that is something for the user to decide and there is no need to
have special handling for such cases in the core. Leave it for the user
to figure out.

Logan Gunthorpe a5d31a3f81 char_dev: extend dynamic allocation of majors into a higher range
We've run into problems with running out of dynamicly assign char
device majors particullarly on automated test systems with
all-yes-configs. Roughly 40 dynamic assignments can be made with such
kernels at this time while space is reserved for only 20.

Currently, the kernel only prints a warning when dynamic allocation
overflows the reserved region. And when this happens drivers that have
fixed assignments can randomly fail depending on the order of
initialization of other drivers. Thus, adding a new char device can cause
unexpected failures in completely unrelated parts of the kernel.

This patch solves the problem by extending dynamic major number
allocations down from 511 once the 234-254 region fills up. Fixed
majors already exist above 255 so the infrastructure to support
high number majors is already in place. The patch reserves an
additional 128 major numbers which should hopefully last us a while.

Kernels that don't require more than 20 dynamic majors assigned (which
is pretty typical) should not be affected by this change.

Michal Hocko f70029bbaa mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE
Commit 20b2f52b73 ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for
movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a
good explanation on why it is actually useful.

It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we
already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on
the kernel command line.  A config option on top only makes the
configuration space larger without a good reason.  It also adds an
additional ifdefery that pollutes the code.

Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled.  This
shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

Kees Cook 7660a6fddc mm: allow slab_nomerge to be set at build time
Some hardened environments want to build kernels with slab_nomerge
already set (so that they do not depend on remembering to set the kernel
command line option).  This is desired to reduce the risk of kernel heap
overflows being able to overwrite objects from merged caches and changes
the requirements for cache layout control, increasing the difficulty of
these attacks.  By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits can
usually only damage objects in the same cache (though the risk to
metadata exploitation is unchanged).

Linus Torvalds e24dd9ee53 Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull security layer updates from James Morris:

 - a major update for AppArmor. From JJ:

     * several bug fixes and cleanups

     * the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated
       on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of
       securityfs symlinks

     * it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been
       carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it
       converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling
       base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally
       will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide
       a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries.

     * This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation
       features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that
       Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top
       of this.

 - Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map
   permission. From Paul:

      "While we're down to 21 patches for v4.13 (it was 31 for v4.12),
       the diffstat jumps up tremendously with over 2k of line changes.

       Almost all of these changes are the SELinux/IB work done by
       Daniel Jurgens; some other noteworthy changes include a NFS v4.2
       labeling fix, a new file:map permission, and reporting of policy
       capabilities on policy load"

   There's also now genfscon labeling support for tracefs, which was
   lost in v4.1 with the separation from debugfs.

 - Smack incorporates a safer socket check in file_receive, and adds a
   cap_capable call in privilege check.

 - TPM as usual has a bunch of fixes and enhancements.

 - Multiple calls to security_add_hooks() can now be made for the same
   LSM, to allow LSMs to have hook declarations across multiple files.

 - IMA now supports different "ima_appraise=" modes (eg. log, fix) from
   the boot command line.

Linus Torvalds 408c9861c6 Power management updates for v4.13-rc1
- Rework suspend-to-idle to allow it to take wakeup events signaled
    by the EC into account on ACPI-based platforms in order to properly
    support power button wakeup from suspend-to-idle on recent Dell
    laptops (Rafael Wysocki).
 
    That includes the core suspend-to-idle code rework, support for
    the Low Power S0 _DSM interface, and support for the ACPI INT0002
    Virtual GPIO device from Hans de Goede (required for USB keyboard
    wakeup from suspend-to-idle to work on some machines).
 
  - Stop trying to export the current CPU frequency via /proc/cpuinfo
    on x86 as that is inaccurate and confusing (Len Brown).
 
  - Rework the way in which the current CPU frequency is exported by
    the kernel (over the cpufreq sysfs interface) on x86 systems with
    the APERF and MPERF registers by always using values read from
    these registers, when available, to compute the current frequency
    regardless of which cpufreq driver is in use (Len Brown).
 
  - Rework the PCI/ACPI device wakeup infrastructure to remove the
    questionable and artificial distinction between "devices that
    can wake up the system from sleep states" and "devices that can
    generate wakeup signals in the working state" from it, which
    allows the code to be simplified quite a bit (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix the wakeup IRQ framework by making it use SRCU instead of
    RCU which doesn't allow sleeping in the read-side critical
    sections, but which in turn is expected to be allowed by the
    IRQ bus locking infrastructure (Thomas Gleixner).
 
  - Modify some computations in the intel_pstate driver to avoid
    rounding errors resulting from them (Srinivas Pandruvada).
 
  - Reduce the overhead of the intel_pstate driver in the HWP
    (hardware-managed P-states) mode and when the "performance"
    P-state selection algorithm is in use by making it avoid
    registering scheduler callbacks in those cases (Len Brown).
 
  - Rework the energy_performance_preference sysfs knob in
    intel_pstate by changing the values that correspond to
    different symbolic hint names used by it (Len Brown).
 
  - Make it possible to use more than one cpuidle driver at the same
    time on ARM (Daniel Lezcano).
 
  - Make it possible to prevent the cpuidle menu governor from using
    the 0 state by disabling it via sysfs (Nicholas Piggin).
 
  - Add support for FFH (Fixed Functional Hardware) MWAIT in ACPI C1
    on AMD systems (Yazen Ghannam).
 
  - Make the CPPC cpufreq driver take the lowest nonlinear performance
    information into account (Prashanth Prakash).
 
  - Add support for hi3660 to the cpufreq-dt driver, fix the
    imx6q driver and clean up the sfi, exynos5440 and intel_pstate
    drivers (Colin Ian King, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Octavian Purdila,
    Rafael Wysocki, Tao Wang).
 
  - Fix a few minor issues in the generic power domains (genpd)
    framework and clean it up somewhat (Krzysztof Kozlowski,
    Mikko Perttunen, Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Fix a couple of minor issues in the operating performance points
    (OPP) framework and clean it up somewhat (Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Fix a CONFIG dependency in the hibernation core and clean it up
    slightly (Balbir Singh, Arvind Yadav, BaoJun Luo).
 
  - Add rk3228 support to the rockchip-io adaptive voltage scaling
    (AVS) driver (David Wu).
 
  - Fix an incorrect bit shift operation in the RAPL power capping
    driver (Adam Lessnau).
 
  - Add support for the EPP field in the HWP (hardware managed
    P-states) control register, HWP.EPP, to the x86_energy_perf_policy
    tool and update msr-index.h with HWP.EPP values (Len Brown).
 
  - Fix some minor issues in the turbostat tool (Len Brown).

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The big ticket items here are the rework of suspend-to-idle in order
  to add proper support for power button wakeup from it on recent Dell
  laptops and the rework of interfaces exporting the current CPU
  frequency on x86.

  In addition to that, support for a few new pieces of hardware is
  added, the PCI/ACPI device wakeup infrastructure is simplified
  significantly and the wakeup IRQ framework is fixed to unbreak the IRQ
  bus locking infrastructure.

  Also, there are some functional improvements for intel_pstate, tools
  updates and small fixes and cleanups all over.

Mimi Zohar 503ceaef8e ima: define a set of appraisal rules requiring file signatures
The builtin "ima_appraise_tcb" policy should require file signatures for
at least a few of the hooks (eg. kernel modules, firmware, and the kexec
kernel image), but changing it would break the existing userspace/kernel
ABI.

This patch defines a new builtin policy named "secure_boot", which
can be specified on the "ima_policy=" boot command line, independently
or in conjunction with the "ima_appraise_tcb" policy, by specifing
ima_policy="appraise_tcb | secure_boot".  The new appraisal rules
requiring file signatures will be added prior to the "ima_appraise_tcb"
rules.

Hugh Dickins 1be7107fbe mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas
Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing
into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which
is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping.
But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in
userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly
used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX]
which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN.

This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default
no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be
tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call
could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical,
unfortunatelly.

Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap
to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size
because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in
the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack
allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is
somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot.

One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace,
but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong
for some special case applications.  For now, add a kernel command line
option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units).

Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page:
because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a
stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point,
a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was
counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK
and strict non-overcommit mode.

Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard
gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start
(or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few
places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(),
and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

Paul E. McKenney 90040c9e30 rcu: Remove *_SLOW_* Kconfig options
The RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY,
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT,
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP,
and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY Kconfig options are only
useful for torture testing, and there are the rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay,
rcutree.gp_init_delay, and rcutree.gp_preinit_delay kernel boot parameters
that rcutorture can use instead.  The effect of these parameters is to
artificially slow down grace period initialization and cleanup in order
to make some types of race conditions happen more often.

This commit therefore simplifies Tree RCU a bit by removing the Kconfig
options and adding the corresponding kernel parameters to rcutorture's
.boot files instead.  However, this commit also leaves out the kernel
parameters for TREE02, TREE04, and TREE07 in order to have about the
same number of tests slowed as not slowed.  TREE01, TREE03, TREE05,
and TREE06 are slowed, and the rest are not slowed.

Paul E. McKenney c350c00829 srcu: Prevent sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed counter wrap
If a given CPU never happens to ever start an SRCU grace period, the
grace-period sequence counter might wrap.  If this CPU were to decide to
finally start a grace period, the state of its sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed
might make it appear that it has already requested this grace period,
which would prevent starting the grace period.  If no other CPU ever started
a grace period again, this would look like a grace-period hang.  Even
if some other CPU took pity and started the needed grace period, the
leaf rcu_node structure's ->srcu_data_have_cbs field won't have record
of the fact that this CPU has a callback pending, which would look like
a very localized grace-period hang.

This might seem very unlikely, but SRCU grace periods can take less than
a microsecond on small systems, which means that overflow can happen
in much less than an hour on a 32-bit embedded system.  And embedded
systems are especially likely to have long-term idle CPUs.  Therefore,
it makes sense to prevent this scenario from happening.

This commit therefore scans each srcu_data structure occasionally,
with frequency controlled by the srcutree.counter_wrap_check kernel
boot parameter.  This parameter can be set to something like 255
in order to exercise the counter-wrap-prevention code.

Paul E. McKenney 820687a7b9 rcuperf: Add writer_holdoff boot parameter
This commit adds a writer_holdoff boot parameter to rcuperf, which is
intended to be used to test Tree SRCU's auto-expediting.  This
boot parameter is in microseconds, and defaults to zero (that is,
disabled).  Set it to a bit larger than srcutree.exp_holdoff,
keeping the nanosecond/microsecond conversion, to force Tree SRCU
to auto-expedite more aggressively.

This commit also adds documentation for this parameter, and fixes some
alphabetization while in the neighborhood.

Paul E. McKenney 881ed593a3 rcuperf: Add ability to performance-test call_rcu() and friends
This commit upgrades rcuperf so that it can do performance testing on
asynchronous grace-period primitives such as call_srcu().  There is
a new rcuperf.gp_async module parameter that specifies this new behavior,
with the pre-existing rcuperf.gp_exp testing expedited grace periods such as
synchronize_rcu_expedited, and with the default being to test synchronous
non-expedited grace periods such as synchronize_rcu().

There is also a new rcuperf.gp_async_max module parameter that specifies
the maximum number of outstanding callbacks per writer kthread, defaulting
to 1,000.  When this limit is exceeded, the writer thread invokes the
appropriate flavor of rcu_barrier() to wait for callbacks to drain.

Baoquan He 8fcc9bc3ea Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt: Update 'memmap=' boot option description
In commit:

  9710f581bb ("x86, mm: Let "memmap=" take more entries one time")

... 'memmap=' was changed to adopt multiple, comma delimited values in a
single entry, so update the related description.

In the special case of only specifying size value without an offset,
like memmap=nn[KMG], memmap behaves similarly to mem=nn[KMG], so update
it too here.

Furthermore, for memmap=nn[KMG]$ss[KMG], an escape character needs be added
before '$' for some bootloaders. E.g in grub2, if we specify memmap=100M$5G
as suggested by the documentation, "memmap=100MG" gets passed to the kernel.

Clarify all this.

send as 3 patch series:

   [PATCH 00/36] Convert DocBook documents to ReST
   [PATCH 0/5] Convert more books to ReST
   [PATCH 00/13] Get rid of DocBook

The lsm book was added as if it were a text file under
Documentation. The plan is to merge it with another file
under Documentation/security, after both this series and
a security Documentation patch series gets merged.

It also adjusts some Sphinx-pedantic errors/warnings on
some kernel-doc markups.

I also added some patches here to add PDF output for all
existing ReST books.

Stefan Hajnoczi f4660cc994 vhost/vsock: use static minor number
Vhost-vsock is a software device so there is no probe call that causes
the driver to register its misc char device node.  This creates a
chicken and egg problem: userspace applications must open
/dev/vhost-vsock to use the driver but the file doesn't exist until the
kernel module has been loaded.

Use the devname modalias mechanism so that /dev/vhost-vsock is created
at boot.  The vhost_vsock kernel module is automatically loaded when the
first application opens /dev/host-vsock.

Note that the "reserved for local use" range in
Documentation/admin-guide/devices.txt is incorrect.  The userio driver
already occupies part of that range.  I've updated the documentation
accordingly.

Paul E. McKenney 22607d66bb srcu: Specify auto-expedite holdoff time
On small systems, in the absence of readers, expedited SRCU grace
periods can complete in less than a microsecond.  This means that an
eight-CPU system can have all CPUs doing synchronize_srcu() in a tight
loop and almost always expedite.  This might actually be desirable in
some situations, but in general it is a good way to needlessly burn
CPU cycles.  And in those situations where it is desirable, your friend
is the function synchronize_srcu_expedited().

For other situations, this commit adds a kernel parameter that specifies
a holdoff between completing the last SRCU grace period and auto-expediting
the next.  If the next grace period starts before the holdoff expires,
auto-expediting is disabled.  The holdoff is 50 microseconds by default,
and can be tuned to the desired number of nanoseconds.  A value of zero
disables auto-expediting.

Shaohua Li bfd20f1cc8 x86, iommu/vt-d: Add an option to disable Intel IOMMU force on
IOMMU harms performance signficantly when we run very fast networking
workloads. It's 40GB networking doing XDP test. Software overhead is
almost unaware, but it's the IOTLB miss (based on our analysis) which
kills the performance. We observed the same performance issue even with
software passthrough (identity mapping), only the hardware passthrough
survives. The pps with iommu (with software passthrough) is only about
~30% of that without it. This is a limitation in hardware based on our
observation, so we'd like to disable the IOMMU force on, but we do want
to use TBOOT and we can sacrifice the DMA security bought by IOMMU. I
must admit I know nothing about TBOOT, but TBOOT guys (cc-ed) think not
eabling IOMMU is totally ok.

So introduce a new boot option to disable the force on. It's kind of
silly we need to run into intel_iommu_init even without force on, but we
need to disable TBOOT PMR registers. For system without the boot option,
nothing is changed.

Will Deacon fccb4e3b8a iommu: Allow default domain type to be set on the kernel command line
The IOMMU core currently initialises the default domain for each group
to IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA, under the assumption that devices will use
IOMMU-backed DMA ops by default. However, in some cases it is desirable
for the DMA ops to bypass the IOMMU for performance reasons, reserving
use of translation for subsystems such as VFIO that require it for
enforcing device isolation.

Rather than modify each IOMMU driver to provide different semantics for
DMA domains, instead we introduce a command line parameter that can be
used to change the type of the default domain. Passthrough can then be
specified using "iommu.passthrough=1" on the kernel command line.

Mark Rutland b0845ce583 kasan: report only the first error by default
Disable kasan after the first report.  There are several reasons for
this:

 - Single bug quite often has multiple invalid memory accesses causing
   storm in the dmesg.

 - Write OOB access might corrupt metadata so the next report will print
   bogus alloc/free stacktraces.

 - Reports after the first easily could be not bugs by itself but just
   side effects of the first one.

Given that multiple reports usually only do harm, it makes sense to
disable kasan after the first one.  If user wants to see all the
reports, the boot-time parameter kasan_multi_shot must be used.

Borislav Petkov 011d826111 RAS: Add a Corrected Errors Collector
Introduce a simple data structure for collecting correctable errors
along with accessors. More detailed description in the code itself.

The error decoding is done with the decoding chain now and
mce_first_notifier() gets to see the error first and the CEC decides
whether to log it and then the rest of the chain doesn't hear about it -
basically the main reason for the CE collector - or to continue running
the notifiers.

When the CEC hits the action threshold, it will try to soft-offine the
page containing the ECC and then the whole decoding chain gets to see
the error.

The hardware for USB3 debug port requires DMA memory blocks.
This requires to delay setting up debugging hardware and

Artur Paszkiewicz 664aed0444 md: add sysfs entries for PPL
Add 'consistency_policy' attribute for array. It indicates how the array
maintains consistency in case of unexpected shutdown.

Add 'ppl_sector' and 'ppl_size' for rdev, which describe the location
and size of the PPL space on the device. They can't be changed for
active members if the array is started and PPL is enabled, so in the
setter functions only basic checks are performed. More checks are done
in ppl_validate_rdev() when starting the log.

These attributes are writable to allow enabling PPL for external
metadata arrays and (later) to enable/disable PPL for a running array.

 "These fix several issues in the intel_pstate driver and one issue in
  the schedutil cpufreq governor, clean up that governor a bit and hook
  up existing code for disabling cpufreq to a new kernel command line
  option.

  Specifics:

   - Three fixes for intel_pstate problems related to the passive mode
     (in which it acts as a regular cpufreq scaling driver), two for the
     handling of global P-state limits and one for the handling of the
     cpu_frequency tracepoint in that mode (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Three fixes for the handling of P-state limits in intel_pstate in
     the active mode (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Introduction of a new cpufreq.off=1 kernel command line argument
     that will disable cpufreq entirely if passed to the kernel and is
     simply hooked up to the existing code used by Xen (Len Brown).

   - Fix for the schedutil cpufreq governor to prevent it from using
     stale raw frequency values in configurations with mutiple CPUs
     sharing one policy object and a cleanup for it reducing its
     overhead slightly (Viresh Kumar)"

Linus Torvalds f26db9649a There was some breakage with the changes for jump labels in the 4.11 merge
window. Namely powerpc broke as jump labels uses the two LSB bits as flags
 in initialization. A check was added to make sure that all jump label
 entries were 4 bytes aligned, but powerpc didn't work that way for modules.
 Adding an alignment in the module linker script appeared to be the best
 solution.
 
 Jump labels also added an anonymous union to access those LSB bits as a
 normal long. But because this structure had static initialization, it broke
 older compilers that could not statically initialize anonymous unions
 without brackets.
 
 The command line parameter for setting function graph filter broke the
 "EMPTY_HASH" descriptor by modifying it instead of creating a new hash to
 hold the entries.
 
 The command line parameter ftrace_graph_max_depth was added to allow its
 setting at boot time. It uses existing code and only the command line hook
 was added. This is not really a fix, but as it uses existing code without
 affecting anything else, I added it to this release. It was ready before the
 merge window closed, but I wanted to let it sit in linux-next for a couple
 of days first.

For mouse devices we can currently change the polling interval
via usbhid.mousepoll. Implement the same thing for joysticks, so
users can reduce input latency this way.

This has been tested with a Logitech RumblePad 2 with jspoll=2,

Len Brown d82f269255 cpufreq: Add the "cpufreq.off=1" cmdline option
Add the "cpufreq.off=1" cmdline option.

At boot-time, this allows a user to request CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n
behavior from a kernel built with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=y.

This is analogous to the existing "cpuidle.off=1" option
and CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y

This capability is valuable when we need to debug end-user
issues in the BIOS or in Linux.  It is also convenient
for enabling comparisons, which may otherwise require a new kernel,
or help from BIOS SETUP, which may be buggy or unavailable.

Early trace callgraphs can be extremely large on systems with
several seconds of boot time. The max_depth parameter limits how
deep the graph trace goes and reduces the output size. This
parameter is the same as the max_graph_depth file in tracefs.

I also added "userspace" to the list since it is a common word in Linux.
I found some instances for "an userfaultfd", but I did not add it to the

"userland" etc., so must draw a line somewhere.

Tejun Heo 1663f26df3 slub: make sysfs directories for memcg sub-caches optional
SLUB creates a per-cache directory under /sys/kernel/slab which hosts a
bunch of debug files.  Usually, there aren't that many caches on a
system and this doesn't really matter; however, if memcg is in use, each
cache can have per-cgroup sub-caches.  SLUB creates the same directories
for these sub-caches under /sys/kernel/slab/$CACHE/cgroup.

Unfortunately, because there can be a lot of cgroups, active or
draining, the product of the numbers of caches, cgroups and files in
each directory can reach a very high number - hundreds of thousands is
commonplace.  Millions and beyond aren't difficult to reach either.

What's under /sys/kernel/slab is primarily for debugging and the
information and control on the a root cache already cover its
sub-caches.  While having a separate directory for each sub-cache can be
helpful for development, it doesn't make much sense to pay this amount
of overhead by default.

This patch introduces a boot parameter slub_memcg_sysfs which determines
whether to create sysfs directories for per-memcg sub-caches.  It also
adds CONFIG_SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON which determines the boot parameter's
default value and defaults to 0.

Thomas Gleixner 47512cfd0d x86/platform/goldfish: Prevent unconditional loading
The goldfish platform code registers the platform device unconditionally
which causes havoc in several ways if the goldfish_pdev_bus driver is
enabled:

 - Access to the hardcoded physical memory region, which is either not
   available or contains stuff which is completely unrelated.

 - Prevents that the interrupt of the serial port can be requested

 - In case of a spurious interrupt it goes into a infinite loop in the
   interrupt handler of the pdev_bus driver (which needs to be fixed
   seperately).

Add a 'goldfish' command line option to make the registration opt-in when
the platform is compiled in.

I'm seriously grumpy about this engineering trainwreck, which has seven
SOBs from Intel developers for 50 lines of code. And none of them figured
out that this is broken. Impressive fail!

Use the early sclp code to provide a boot console. This boot console
is available if the kernel parameter "earlyprintk" has been specified,
just like it works for other architectures that also provide an early
boot console.

This makes debugging of early problems much easier, since now we
finally have working console output even before memory detection is
running.

The boot console will be automatically disabled as soon as another
console will be registered.

Lv Zheng 9c4aa1eecb ACPI / sysfs: Provide quirk mechanism to prevent GPE flooding
Sometimes, the users may require a quirk to be provided from ACPI subsystem
core to prevent a GPE from flooding.
Normally, if a GPE cannot be dispatched, ACPICA core automatically prevents
the GPE from firing. But there are cases the GPE is dispatched by _Lxx/_Exx
provided via AML table, and OSPM is lacking of the knowledge to get
_Lxx/_Exx correctly executed to handle the GPE, thus the GPE flooding may
still occur.

The existing quirk mechanism can be enabled/disabled using the following
commands to prevent such kind of GPE flooding during runtime:
 # echo mask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00
 # echo unmask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00
To avoid GPE flooding during boot, we need a boot stage mechanism.

This patch provides such a boot stage quirk mechanism to stop this kind of
GPE flooding. This patch doesn't fix any feature gap but since the new
feature gaps could be found in the future endlessly, and can disappear if
the feature gaps are filled, providing a boot parameter rather than a DMI
table should suffice.

Mimi Zohar d68a6fe9fc ima: define a canonical binary_runtime_measurements list format
The IMA binary_runtime_measurements list is currently in platform native
format.

To allow restoring a measurement list carried across kexec with a
different endianness than the targeted kernel, this patch defines
little-endian as the canonical format.  For big endian systems wanting
to save/restore the measurement list from a system with a different
endianness, a new boot command line parameter named "ima_canonical_fmt"
is defined.

Considerations: use of the "ima_canonical_fmt" boot command line option
will break existing userspace applications on big endian systems
expecting the binary_runtime_measurements list to be in platform native
format.

Geert Uytterhoeven fff5d99225 swiotlb: Add swiotlb=noforce debug option
On architectures like arm64, swiotlb is tied intimately to the core
architecture DMA support. In addition, ZONE_DMA cannot be disabled.

To aid debugging and catch devices not supporting DMA to memory outside
the 32-bit address space, add a kernel command line option
"swiotlb=noforce", which disables the use of bounce buffers.
If specified, trying to map memory that cannot be used with DMA will
fail, and a rate-limited warning will be printed.

Note that io_tlb_nslabs is set to 1, which is the minimal supported
value.

Linus Torvalds 5266e70335 TTY/Serial patches for 4.10-rc1
Here's the tty/serial patchset for 4.10-rc1.
 
 It's been a quiet kernel cycle for this subsystem, just a small number
 of changes.  A few new serial drivers, and some cleanups to the old
 vgacon logic, and other minor serial driver changes as well.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "Again, cpufreq gets more changes than the other parts this time (one
  new driver, one old driver less, a bunch of enhancements of the
  existing code, new CPU IDs, fixes, cleanups)

  There also are some changes in cpuidle (idle injection rework, a
  couple of new CPU IDs, online/offline rework in intel_idle, fixes and
  cleanups), in the generic power domains framework (mostly related to
  supporting power domains containing CPUs), and in the Operating
  Performance Points (OPP) library (mostly related to supporting devices
  with multiple voltage regulators)

  In addition to that, the system sleep state selection interface is
  modified to make it easier for distributions with unchanged user space
  to support suspend-to-idle as the default system suspend method, some
  issues are fixed in the PM core, the latency tolerance PM QoS
  framework is improved a bit, the Intel RAPL power capping driver is
  cleaned up and there are some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq
  subsystem

Linus Torvalds e7aa8c2eb1 These are the documentation changes for 4.10.
It's another busy cycle for the docs tree, as the sphinx conversion
 continues.  Highlights include:
 
  - Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but should be
    more solid now.
 
  - Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx.  Only 27 to go...
    Lots of plain-text files have also been converted and integrated.
 
  - Images in binary formats have been replaced with more source-friendly
    versions.
 
  - Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of various
    files discussed at the kernel summit.
 
  - New documentation for the device_link mechanism.
 
 ...and, of course, lots of typo fixes and small updates.

profiling is done in the perf era.

Jonathan Corbet 2c79dcafd8 docs: Get rid of the badRAM guide
The last release of this tool was for 2.6.28; it's hard to see how it has
any relevance to current kernels.

Jonathan Corbet 7358bb2f32 docs: Clean up and organize the admin guide a bit
The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something
better than an unordered blob of files.  This is a first step in that
direction.  The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been
reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them.

One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use
:numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't
seem to be a way to change that.  Eventually we probably want to group the
documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC,
but it's probably early to do that.
