Existing description is worded in a way which almost encourages setting of
vfs_cache_pressure above 100, possibly way above it.
Users are left in a dark what this numeric value is - an int? a
percentage? what the scale is?
As a result, we are getting reports about noticeable performance
degradation from users who have set vfs_cache_pressure to ridiculously
high values - because they thought there is no downside to it.
Via code inspection it's obvious that this value is treated as a
percentage. This patch changes text to reflect this fact, and adds a
cautionary paragraph advising against setting vfs_cache_pressure sky high.

Currently memory error handler handles action optional errors in the
deferred manner by default. And if a recovery aware application wants
to handle it immediately, it can do it by setting PF_MCE_EARLY flag.
However, such signal can be sent only to the main thread, so it's
problematic if the application wants to have a dedicated thread to
handler such signals.
So this patch adds dedicated thread support to memory error handler. We
have PF_MCE_EARLY flags for each thread separately, so with this patch
AO signal is sent to the thread with PF_MCE_EARLY flag set, not the main
thread. If you want to implement a dedicated thread, you call prctl()
to set PF_MCE_EARLY on the thread.
Memory error handler collects processes to be killed, so this patch lets
it check PF_MCE_EARLY flag on each thread in the collecting routines.
No behavioral change for all non-early kill cases.
Tony said:
: The old behavior was crazy - someone with a multithreaded process might
: well expect that if they call prctl(PF_MCE_EARLY) in just one thread, then
: that thread would see the SIGBUS with si_code = BUS_MCEERR_A0 - even if
: that thread wasn't the main thread for the process.

Kmemcg is currently under development and lacks some important features.
In particular, it does not have support of kmem reclaim on memory pressure
inside cgroup, which practically makes it unusable in real life. Let's
warn about it in both Kconfig and Documentation to prevent complaints
arising.

When it was introduced, zone_reclaim_mode made sense as NUMA distances
punished and workloads were generally partitioned to fit into a NUMA
node. NUMA machines are now common but few of the workloads are
NUMA-aware and it's routine to see major performance degradation due to
zone_reclaim_mode being enabled but relatively few can identify the
problem.
Those that require zone_reclaim_mode are likely to be able to detect
when it needs to be enabled and tune appropriately so lets have a
sensible default for the bulk of users.
This patch (of 2):
zone_reclaim_mode causes processes to prefer reclaiming memory from
local node instead of spilling over to other nodes. This made sense
initially when NUMA machines were almost exclusively HPC and the
workload was partitioned into nodes. The NUMA penalties were
sufficiently high to justify reclaiming the memory. On current machines
and workloads it is often the case that zone_reclaim_mode destroys
performance but not all users know how to detect this. Favour the
common case and disable it by default. Users that are sophisticated
enough to know they need zone_reclaim_mode will detect it.

Seems we all agree that information about SECTION, e.g. section size,
sections per memory block should be kept as kernel internals, and not
exposed to userspace.
This patch updates Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt to refer to memory
blocks instead of memory sections where appropriate and added a
paragraph to explain that memory blocks are made of memory sections.
The documentation update is mostly provided by Nathan.
Also, as end_phys_index in code is actually not the end section id, but
the end memory block id, which should always be the same as phys_index.
So it is removed here.

Per-memcg swappiness and oom killing can currently not be tweaked on a
memcg that is part of a hierarchy, but not the root of that hierarchy.
Users have complained that they can't configure this when they turned on
hierarchy mode. In fact, with hierarchy mode becoming the default, this
restriction disables the tunables entirely.
But there is no good reason for this restriction. The settings for
swappiness and OOM killing are taken from whatever memcg whose limit
triggered reclaim and OOM invocation, regardless of its position in the
hierarchy tree.
Allow setting swappiness on any group. The knob on the root memcg
already reads the global VM swappiness, make it writable as well.
Allow disabling the OOM killer on any non-root memcg.

Currently, "cma=" kernel parameter is used to specify the size of CMA,
but we can't specify where it is located. We want to locate CMA below
4GB for devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems
without iommu.
This enables to specify the placement of CMA by extending "cma=" kernel
parameter.
Examples:
1. locate 64MB CMA below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G"
2. locate 64MB CMA exact at 512MB by "cma=64M@512M"
Note that the DMA contiguous memory allocator on x86 assumes that
page_address() works for the pages to allocate. So this change requires
to limit end address of contiguous memory area upto max_pfn_mapped to
prevent from locating it on highmem area by the argument of
dma_contiguous_reserve().

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"ACPICA is the leader this time (63 commits), followed by cpufreq (28
commits), devfreq (15 commits), system suspend/hibernation (12
commits), ACPI video and ACPI device enumeration (10 commits each).
We have no major new features this time, but there are a few
significant changes of how things work. The most visible one will
probably be that we are now going to create platform devices rather
than PNP devices by default for ACPI device objects with _HID. That
was long overdue and will be really necessary to be able to use the
same drivers for the same hardware blocks on ACPI and DT-based systems
going forward. We're not expecting fallout from this one (as usual),
but it's something to watch nevertheless.
The second change having a chance to be visible is that ACPI video
will now default to using native backlight rather than the ACPI
backlight interface which should generally help systems with broken
Win8 BIOSes. We're hoping that all problems with the native backlight
handling that we had previously have been addressed and we are in a
good enough shape to flip the default, but this change should be easy
enough to revert if need be.
In addition to that, the system suspend core has a new mechanism to
allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended throughout system
suspend/resume transitions if some extra conditions are met
(generally, they are related to coordination within device hierarchy).
However, enabling this feature requires cooperation from the bus type
layer and for now it has only been implemented for the ACPI PM domain
(used by ACPI-enumerated platform devices mostly today).
Also, the acpidump utility that was previously shipped as a separate
tool will now be provided by the upstream ACPICA along with the rest
of ACPICA code, which will allow it to be more up to date and better
supported, and we have one new cpuidle driver (ARM clps711x).
The rest is improvements related to certain specific use cases,
cleanups and fixes all over the place.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20140424. That includes a number
of fixes and improvements related to things like GPE handling,
table loading, headers, memory mapping and unmapping, DSDT/SSDT
overriding, and the Unload() operator. The acpidump utility from
upstream ACPICA is included too. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, David
Box, David Binderman, and Colin Ian King.
- Fixes and cleanups related to ACPI video and backlight interfaces
from Hans de Goede. That includes blacklist entries for some new
machines and using native backlight by default.
- ACPI device enumeration changes to create platform devices rather
than PNP devices for ACPI device objects with _HID by default. PNP
devices will still be created for the ACPI device object with
device IDs corresponding to real PNP devices, so that change should
not break things left and right, and we're expecting to see more
and more ACPI-enumerated platform devices in the future. From
Zhang Rui and Rafael J Wysocki.
- Updates for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver allowing it
to handle system suspend/resume on Asus T100 correctly. From
Heikki Krogerus and Rafael J Wysocki.
- PM core update introducing a mechanism to allow runtime-suspended
devices to stay suspended over system suspend/resume transitions if
certain additional conditions related to coordination within device
hierarchy are met. Related PM documentation update and ACPI PM
domain support for the new feature. From Rafael J Wysocki.
- Fixes and improvements related to the "freeze" sleep state. They
affect several places including cpuidle, PM core, ACPI core, and
the ACPI battery driver. From Rafael J Wysocki and Zhang Rui.
- Miscellaneous fixes and updates of the ACPI core from Aaron Lu,
Bjørn Mork, Hanjun Guo, Lan Tianyu, and Rafael J Wysocki.
- Fixes and cleanups for the ACPI processor and ACPI PAD (Processor
Aggregator Device) drivers from Baoquan He, Manuel Schölling, Tony
Camuso, and Toshi Kani.
- System suspend/resume optimization in the ACPI battery driver from
Lan Tianyu.
- OPP (Operating Performance Points) subsystem updates from Chander
Kashyap, Mark Brown, and Nishanth Menon.
- cpufreq core fixes, updates and cleanups from Srivatsa S Bhat,
Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar.
- Updates, fixes and cleanups for the Tegra, powernow-k8, imx6q,
s5pv210, nforce2, and powernv cpufreq drivers from Brian Norris,
Jingoo Han, Paul Bolle, Philipp Zabel, Stratos Karafotis, and
Viresh Kumar.
- intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups from Dirk Brandewie, Doug
Smythies, and Stratos Karafotis.
- Enabling the big.LITTLE cpufreq driver on arm64 from Mark Brown.
- Fix for the cpuidle menu governor from Chander Kashyap.
- New ARM clps711x cpuidle driver from Alexander Shiyan.
- Hibernate core fixes and cleanups from Chen Gang, Dan Carpenter,
Fabian Frederick, Pali Rohár, and Sebastian Capella.
- Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) driver updates from Jacob
Pan.

was a pretty active cycle for KVM. Changes include:
- a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration,
GDB support and more
- ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by Catalin)
- initial POWER8 and little-endian host support
- support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets
- pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace interface
and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware
- for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still,
we have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
always worked). And some optimizations too.
The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence
that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17.

The bulk of the changes for this release are a few new drivers however
there are a couple of noticable core changes and the usual stream of
cleanups and fixes:
- Move disable of unused regulators later in init so it comes after
deferred probe has iterated making startup smoother.
- Fixes reference counting of the DT nodes for constraints from Charles
Keepax. This has little practical impact since all real users of
the regulator bindings use FDT which doesn't need the reference
counting.
- Lots of cleanups, especially to the Samsung drivers.
- Support for Linear Technologies LTC3589, Texas Instruments TPS658640
and X-Powers AXP20x.

development cycle:
- Antoine Tenart made the get_group_pins() vtable entry
optional.
- Antoine also provides an entirely new driver for the
Marvell Berlin SoC. This is unrelated to the existing
MVEBU hardware driver and warrants its own separate
driver.
- Reflected from the GPIO subsystem there is a number of
refactorings to make pin control drivers with gpiochips
use the new gpiolib irqchip helpers. The following
drivers were converted to use the new infrastructure:
- ST Microelectronics STiH416 and friends
- The Atmel AT91
- The CSR SiRF (Prima2)
- The Qualcomm MSM series

Pull pin control changes from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v3.16 development
cycle:
- Antoine Tenart made the get_group_pins() vtable entry optional.
- Antoine also provides an entirely new driver for the Marvell Berlin
SoC. This is unrelated to the existing MVEBU hardware driver and
warrants its own separate driver.
- reflected from the GPIO subsystem there is a number of refactorings
to make pin control drivers with gpiochips use the new gpiolib
irqchip helpers. The following drivers were converted to use the
new infrastructure:
* ST Microelectronics STiH416 and friends
* The Atmel AT91
* The CSR SiRF (Prima2)
* The Qualcomm MSM series
- massive improvements in the Qualcomm MSM driver from Bjorn
Andersson, Andy Gross and Kumar Gala. Among those new support for

Pull first set of s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"The biggest change in this patchset is conversion from the bootmem
bitmaps to the memblock code. This conversion requires two common
code patches to introduce the 'physmem' memblock list.
We experimented with ticket spinlocks but in the end decided against
them as they perform poorly on virtualized systems. But the spinlock
cleanup and some small improvements are included.
The uaccess code got another optimization, the get_user/put_user calls
are now inline again for kernel compiles targeted at z10 or newer
machines. This makes the text segment shorter and the code gets a
little bit faster.
And as always some bug fixes"

Here is the big USB driver pull request for 3.16-rc1.
Nothing huge here, but lots of little things in the USB core, and in
lots of drivers. Hopefully the USB power management will be work better
now that it has been reworked to do per-port power control dynamically.
There's also a raft of gadget driver updates and fixes, CONFIG_USB_DEBUG
is finally gone now that everything has been converted over to the
dynamic debug inteface, the last hold-out drivers were cleaned up and
the config option removed. There were also other minor things all
through the drivers/usb/ tree, the shortlog shows this pretty well.
All have been in linux-next, including the very last patch, which came
from linux-next to fix a build issue on some platforms.

ASoC: Final updates for v3.16
A few more updates from the last week of development, nothing too
exciting. Highlights include:
- GPIO descriptor support for jacks
- More updates and fixes to the Freescale SSI, Intel and rsnd drivers.
- New drivers for Analog Devices ADAU1361, ADAU1381, ADAU1761 and
ADAU1781, and Realtek RT5677.
SoC-near driver changes that we're merging through our tree. Mostly
because they depend on other changes we have staged, but in some cases
because the driver maintainers preferred that we did it this way.
This contains a largeish cleanup series of the omap_l3_noc bus driver,
cpuidle rework for Exynos, some reset driver conversions and a long
branch of TI EDMA fixes and cleanups, with more to come next release.
The TI EDMA cleanups is a shared branch with the dmaengine tree, with
a handful of Davinci-specific fixes on top.
After discussion at last year's KS (and some more on the mailing lists),
we are here adding a drivers/soc directory. The purpose of this is
to keep per-vendor shared code that's needed by different drivers but
that doesn't fit into the MFD (nor drivers/platform) model. We expect
to keep merging contents for this hierarchy through arm-soc so we can
keep an eye on what the vendors keep adding here and not making it a
free-for-all to shove in crazy stuff.

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
"SoC-near driver changes that we're merging through our tree. Mostly
because they depend on other changes we have staged, but in some cases
because the driver maintainers preferred that we did it this way.
This contains a largeish cleanup series of the omap_l3_noc bus driver,
cpuidle rework for Exynos, some reset driver conversions and a long
branch of TI EDMA fixes and cleanups, with more to come next release.
The TI EDMA cleanups is a shared branch with the dmaengine tree, with
a handful of Davinci-specific fixes on top.
After discussion at last year's KS (and some more on the mailing
lists), we are here adding a drivers/soc directory. The purpose of
this is to keep per-vendor shared code that's needed by different
drivers but that doesn't fit into the MFD (nor drivers/platform)
model. We expect to keep merging contents for this hierarchy through
arm-soc so we can keep an eye on what the vendors keep adding here and
not making it a free-for-all to shove in crazy stuff"

The bulk of this branch is updates for Renesas Shmobile. They are still
doing some enablement for classic boards first, and then come up with DT
bindings when they've had a chance to learn more about the hardware. Not
necessarily a bad way to go about it, and they're looking at moving some
of the temporary board code resulting from it to drivers/staging instead
to avoid the churn here.
As a result of the shmobile clock cleanups, we end up merging quite a
bit of SH code here as well. We ended up merging it here instead of in
the cleanup branch due to the other board changes depending on it.

A quite large set of SoC updates this cycle. In no particular order:
- Multi-cluster power management for Samsung Exynos, adding support for
big.LITTLE CPU switching on EXYNOS5
- SMP support for Marvell Armada 375 and 38x
- SMP rework on Allwinner A31
- Xilinx Zynq support for SOC_BUS, big endian
- Marvell orion5x platform cleanup, modernizing the implementation and
moving to DT.
- _Finally_ moving Samsung Exynos over to support MULTIPLATFORM, so
that their platform can be enabled in the same kernel binary as most
of the other v7 platforms in the tree. \o/ The work isn't quite complete,
there's some driver fixes still needed, but the basics now work.

- LSI Axxia AXM55xx SoCs
- Samsung EXYNOS 3250, 5260, 5410, 5420 and 5800
- STi STIH407
Plus a large set of various smaller updates for different platforms. I'm
probably missing some important one here.

Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe:
"It's a big(ish) round this time, lots of development effort has gone
into blk-mq in the last 3 months. Generally we're heading to where
3.16 will be a feature complete and performant blk-mq. scsi-mq is
progressing nicely and will hopefully be in 3.17. A nvme port is in
progress, and the Micron pci-e flash driver, mtip32xx, is converted
and will be sent in with the driver pull request for 3.16.
This pull request contains:
- Lots of prep and support patches for scsi-mq have been integrated.
All from Christoph.
- API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph.
- Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for
blk-mq from Ming Lei.
- A flew of blk-mq updates from me:
* Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU
to queue mapping. This enables optimizations in the driver.
* Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never
really worked well for blk-mq. percpu_ida relies on the fact
that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it
fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to
exhausting) the tag space.
* Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq
* Various fixes for IO timeouts.
* API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations.
- Remove 'buffer' from struct request. This is ancient code, from
when requests were always virtually mapped. Kill it, to reclaim
some space in struct request. From me.
- Remove 'magic' from blk_plug. Since we store these on the stack
and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just
get rid of it. From me.
- Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two
atomic reads. Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as
the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing
IO on blk-mq. From me.
- File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/. This
includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c. From me,
from a discussion on lkml.
That should describe the meat of the pull request. Also has various
little fixes and cleanups from Dave Jones, Shaohua Li, Duan Jiong,
Fengguang Wu, Fabian Frederick, Randy Dunlap, Robert Elliott, and Sam
Bradshaw"

Pull HSI (High Speed Syncronous Interface) changes from Sebastian Reichel:
"Please pull the following changes for the HSI subsystem, which I have
taken over from Carlos Chinea <carlos.chinea@nokia.com>.
The below patches have been worked on in the linux-omap mailinglist
for 10 months and are well tested in linux-next (have been in there
for more than two weeks) without any problems arising. Apart from
that potential regressions are very limited, because the subsystem is
not yet used by any platform in the mainline kernel.
- Add some documentation for the HSI subsystem
- Add Device Tree support for the HSI subsystem
- Add OMAP3 SSI driver (SSI is a legacy variant of HSI)
- Add Nokia N900 Modem driver (without speech support for now)"
