      stmmac: dwmac-sti: review the glue-logic for STi4xx and STiD127 SoCs · 53b26b9b
      由 Giuseppe CAVALLARO 提交于 
      This patch is to review the whole glue logic adopted on STi SoCs that
was bugged.

In the old glue-logic there was a lot of confusion when setup the
retiming especially for STiD127 where, for example, the bits 6 and 7
(in the GMAC  control register) have a different meaning of what is
used for STiH4xx SoCs. So we cannot adopt the same glue for all these
SoCs.
Moreover, GiGa on STiD127 didn't work and, for all the SoCs, the RGMII
couldn't run when the speed was 10Mbps (because the clock was not properly
managed).
Note that the phy clock needs to be provided by the platform as well as
documented in the related binding file (updated as consequence).

The old code supported too many configurations never adopted and validated.
This made the code very complex to maintain and debug in case of issues.

The patch simplifies all the configurations as commented in the tables
inside the file and obviously it has been tested on all the boards
based on the SoCs mentioned.

With this patch, the dwmac-sti is also ready to support new configurations that
will be available on next SoC generations.

      coredump: add %i/%I in core_pattern to report the tid of the crashed thread · b03023ec
      由 Oleg Nesterov 提交于 
      format_corename() can only pass the leader's pid to the core handler,
but there is no simple way to figure out which thread originated the
coredump.

As Jan explains, this also means that there is no simple way to create
the backtrace of the crashed process:

As programs are mostly compiled with implicit gcc -fomit-frame-pointer
one needs program's .eh_frame section (equivalently PT_GNU_EH_FRAME
segment) or .debug_frame section.  .debug_frame usually is present only
in separate debug info files usually not even installed on the system.
While .eh_frame is a part of the executable/library (and it is even
always mapped for C++ exceptions unwinding) it no longer has to be
present anywhere on the disk as the program could be upgraded in the
meantime and the running instance has its executable file already
unlinked from disk.

One possibility is to echo 0x3f >/proc/*/coredump_filter and dump all
the file-backed memory including the executable's .eh_frame section.
But that can create huge core files, for example even due to mmapped
data files.

Other possibility would be to read .eh_frame from /proc/PID/mem at the
core_pattern handler time of the core dump.  For the backtrace one needs
to read the register state first which can be done from core_pattern
handler:

    ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT)
    close(0);    // close pipe fd to resume the sleeping dumper
    waitpid();   // should report EXIT
    PTRACE_GETREGS or other requests

The remaining problem is how to get the 'tid' value of the crashed
thread.  It could be read from the first NT_PRSTATUS note of the core
file but that makes the core_pattern handler complicated.

Unfortunately %t is already used so this patch uses %i/%I.

Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (https://github.com/abrt/abrt/wiki/overview)
is experimenting with this.  It is using the elfutils
(https://fedorahosted.org/elfutils/) unwinder for generating the
backtraces.  Apart from not needing matching executables as mentioned
above, another advantage is that we can get the backtrace without saving
the core (which might be quite large) to disk.

      binfmt_misc: expand the register format limit to 1920 bytes · bbaecc08
      由 Mike Frysinger 提交于 
      The current code places a 256 byte limit on the registration format.
This ends up being fairly limited when you try to do matching against a
binary format like ELF:

 - the magic & mask formats cannot have any embedded NUL chars
   (string_unescape_inplace halts at the first NUL)
 - each escape sequence quadruples the size: \x00 is needed for NUL
 - trying to match bytes at the start of the file as well as further
   on leads to a lot of \x00 sequences in the mask
 - magic & mask have to be the same length (when decoded)
 - still need bytes for the other fields
 - impossible!

Let's look at a concrete (and common) example: using QEMU to run MIPS
ELFs.  The name field uses 11 bytes "qemu-mipsel".  The interp uses 20
bytes "/usr/bin/qemu-mipsel".  The type & flags takes up 4 bytes.  We
need 7 bytes for the delimiter (usually ":").  We can skip offset.  So
already we're down to 107 bytes to use with the magic/mask instead of
the real limit of 128 (BINPRM_BUF_SIZE).  If people use shell code to
register (which they do the majority of the time), they're down to ~26
possible bytes since the escape sequence must be \x##.

The ELF format looks like (both 32 & 64 bit):

	e_ident: 16 bytes
	e_type: 2 bytes
	e_machine: 2 bytes

Those 20 bytes are enough for most architectures because they have so few
formats in the first place, thus they can be uniquely identified.  That
also means for shell users, since 20 is smaller than 26, they can sanely
register a handler.

But for some targets (like MIPS), we need to poke further.  The ELF fields
continue on:

	e_entry: 4 or 8 bytes
	e_phoff: 4 or 8 bytes
	e_shoff: 4 or 8 bytes
	e_flags: 4 bytes

We only care about e_flags here as that includes the bits to identify
whether the ELF is O32/N32/N64.  But now we have to consume another 16
bytes (for 32 bit ELFs) or 28 bytes (for 64 bit ELFs) just to match the
flags.  If every byte is escaped, we send 288 more bytes to the kernel
((20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 12 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} + 4
{e_flags}) * 2 {mask,magic} * 4 {escape}) and we've clearly blown our
budget.

Even if we try to be clever and do the decoding ourselves (rather than
relying on the kernel to process \x##), we still can't hit the mark --
string_unescape_inplace treats mask & magic as C strings so NUL cannot
be embedded.  That leaves us with having to pass \x00 for the 12/24
entry/phoff/shoff bytes (as those will be completely random addresses),
and that is a minimum requirement of 48/96 bytes for the mask alone.
Add up the rest and we blow through it (this is for 64 bit ELFs):
magic: 20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 24 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} +
       4 {e_flags} = 48              # ^^ See note below.
mask: 20 {e_ident,e_type,e_machine} + 96 {e_entry,e_phoff,e_shoff} +
       4 {e_flags} = 120
Remember above we had 107 left over, and now we're at 168.  This is of
course the *best* case scenario -- you'll also want to have NUL bytes
in the magic & mask too to match literal zeros.

Note: the reason we can use 24 in the magic is that we can work off of the
fact that for bytes the mask would clobber, we can stuff any value into
magic that we want.  So when mask is \x00, we don't need the magic to also
be \x00, it can be an unescaped raw byte like '!'.  This lets us handle
more formats (barely) under the current 256 limit, but that's a pretty
tall hoop to force people to jump through.

With all that said, let's bump the limit from 256 bytes to 1920.  This way
we support escaping every byte of the mask & magic field (which is 1024
bytes by themselves -- 128 * 4 * 2), and we leave plenty of room for other
fields.  Like long paths to the interpreter (when you have source in your
/really/long/homedir/qemu/foo).  Since the current code stuffs more than
one structure into the same buffer, we leave a bit of space to easily
round up to 2k.  1920 is just as arbitrary as 256 ;).

      Input: i8042 - disable active multiplexing by default · 68da1664
      由 Dmitry Torokhov 提交于 
      Active multiplexing is a nice feature as it allows several pointing devices
(such as touchpad and external mouse) use their native protocols at the
same time. Unfortunately many manufacturers do not implement the feature
properly even though they advertise it. The problematic implementations are
never fixed, since Windows by default does not use this mode, and move from
one BIOS/model of laptop to another. When active multiplexing is broken
turning it on usually results in touchpad, keyboard, or both unresponsive.

With PS/2 usage on decline (most of PS/2 devices in use nowadays are
internal laptop touchpads), I expect number of users who have laptops with
working MUX implementation, docking stations with external PS/2 ports, and
who are still using external PS/2 mice, to be rather small. Let's flip the
default to be OFF and allow activating it through i8042.nomux=0 kernel
option.  We'll also keep DMI table where we can record known good models.

      zram: use notify_free to account all free notifications · 015254da
      由 Sergey Senozhatsky 提交于 
      `notify_free' device attribute accounts the number of slot free
notifications and internally represents the number of zram_free_page()
calls.  Slot free notifications are sent only when device is used as a
swap device, hence `notify_free' is used only for swap devices.  Since
f4659d8e (zram: support REQ_DISCARD) ZRAM handles yet another one
free notification (also via zram_free_page() call) -- REQ_DISCARD
requests, which are sent by a filesystem, whenever some data blocks are
discarded.  However, there is no way to know the number of notifications
in the latter case.

Use `notify_free' to account the number of pages freed by
zram_bio_discard() and zram_slot_free_notify().  Depending on usage
scenario `notify_free' represents:

 a) the number of pages freed because of slot free notifications, which is
   equal to the number of swap_slot_free_notify() calls, so there is no
   behaviour change

 b) the number of pages freed because of REQ_DISCARD notifications

      zram: report maximum used memory · 461a8eee
      由 Minchan Kim 提交于 
      Normally, zram user could get maximum memory usage zram consumed via
polling mem_used_total with sysfs in userspace.

But it has a critical problem because user can miss peak memory usage
during update inverval of polling.  For avoiding that, user should poll it
with shorter interval(ie, 0.0000000001s) with mlocking to avoid page fault
delay when memory pressure is heavy.  It would be troublesome.

This patch adds new knob "mem_used_max" so user could see the maximum
memory usage easily via reading the knob and reset it via "echo 0 >
/sys/block/zram0/mem_used_max".

This patch adds new knob "mem_limit" via sysfs to set up the a limit so
that zram could fail allocation once it reaches the limit.

In addition, user could change the limit in runtime so that he could
manage the memory more dynamically.

Initial state is no limit so it doesn't break old behavior.

interface to manually rescue unevictable pages"), which was in 2011, and
there haven't been any reports of usecases for it, only reports that the
deprecation warnings are annying.  It's unlikely that anybody is using
this interface specifically at this point, so remove it.

      memory-hotplug: add sysfs valid_zones attribute · ed2f2400
      由 Zhang Zhen 提交于 
      Currently memory-hotplug has two limits:

1. If the memory block is in ZONE_NORMAL, you can change it to
   ZONE_MOVABLE, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_MOVABLE.

2. If the memory block is in ZONE_MOVABLE, you can change it to
   ZONE_NORMAL, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_NORMAL.

With this patch, we can easy to know a memory block can be onlined to
which zone, and don't need to know the above two limits.

Updated the related Documentation.

      mm/slab_common: commonize slab merge logic · 423c929c
      由 Joonsoo Kim 提交于 
      Slab merge is good feature to reduce fragmentation.  Now, it is only
applied to SLUB, but, it would be good to apply it to SLAB.  This patch is
preparation step to apply slab merge to SLAB by commonizing slab merge
logic.
