Add minimal guest support to perf, so it can distinguish whether the PMU interrupt was in the host or the guest, as well as collecting some very basic information (guest PC, user vs kernel mode). This is not feature complete though, as it doesn't support backtracing in the guest. Based on the x86 implementation, tested with KVM/arm64.

This patch adds support for "earlyprintk=" parameter on the kernel command line. The format is: earlyprintk=<name>[,<addr>][,<options>] where <name> is the name of the (UART) device, e.g. "pl011", <addr> is the I/O address. The <options> aren't currently used. The mapping of the earlyprintk device is done very early during kernel boot and there are restrictions on which functions it can call. A special early_io_map() function is added which creates the mapping from the pre-defined EARLY_IOBASE to the device I/O address passed via the kernel parameter. The pgd entry corresponding to EARLY_IOBASE is pre-populated in head.S during kernel boot. Only PL011 is currently supported and it is assumed that the interface is already initialised by the boot loader before the kernel is started.

Dave Jones hit this assert when doing a compile on recent git, with CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG enabled: XFS: Assertion failed: (char *)dup - (char *)hdr == be16_to_cpu(*xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup)), file: fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_data.c, line: 828 Upon further digging, the tag found by xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup) contained "2" and not the proper offset, and I found that this value was changed after the memmoves under "Use a stale leaf for our new entry." in xfs_dir2_block_addname(), i.e. memmove(&blp[mid + 1], &blp[mid], (highstale - mid) * sizeof(*blp)); overwrote it. What has happened is that the previous call to xfs_dir2_block_compact() has rearranged things; it changes btp->count as well as the blp array. So after we make that call, we must recalculate the proper pointer to the leaf entries by making another call to xfs_dir2_block_leaf_p(). Dave provided a metadump image which led to a simple reproducer (create a particular filename in the affected directory) and this resolves the testcase as well as the bug on his live system.

Commits starting at 77c1a08f introduced a multiple segment support to xfs_buf. xfs_trans_buf_item_match() could not find a multi-segment buffer in the transaction because it was looking at the single segment block number rather than the multi-segment b_maps[0].bm.bn. This results on a recursive buffer lock that can never be satisfied. This patch: 1) Changed the remaining b_map accesses to be b_maps[0] accesses. 2) Renames the single segment b_map structure to __b_map to avoid future confusion.

Sadly, -Os keeps on generating some very suboptimal code for certain cases, to the point where any I$ miss upside is swamped by the downside. The main ones are: - using "rep movsb" for memcpy, even on CPU's where that is horrendously bad for performance. - not honoring branch prediction information, so any I$ footprint you win from smaller code, you lose from less code density in the I$. - using divide instructions when that is very expensive.

If the default iosched is built as module, the kernel may deadlock while trying to load the iosched module on device probe if the probing was running off async. This is because async_synchronize_full() at the end of module init ends up waiting for the async job which initiated the module loading. async A modprobe 1. finds a device 2. registers the block device 3. request_module(default iosched) 4. modprobe in userland 5. load and init module 6. async_synchronize_full() Async A waits for modprobe to finish in request_module() and modprobe waits for async A to finish in async_synchronize_full(). Because there's no easy to track dependency once control goes out to userland, implementing properly nested flushing is difficult. For now, make module init perform async_synchronize_full() iff module init has queued async jobs as suggested by Linus. This avoids the described deadlock because iosched module doesn't use async and thus wouldn't invoke async_synchronize_full(). This is hacky and incomplete. It will deadlock if async module loading nests; however, this works around the known problem case and seems to be the best of bad options.

cbc0dd1f "s390/pci: CHSC PCI support for error and availability events" introduced a new SEI notification type as part of pci support. The way SEI was called with nt2 and nt0 consecutive broke the nt0 stuff used for channel subsystem notifications. The reason why this was broken with the mentioned patch is that you cannot selectively disable type 0 notifications (so even when asked for type 2 only, type 0 could be presented). The way to do it is to tell SEI which types of notification you can process and -this is the important part- look at the SEI result which notification type you actually received.

Converting a 64 Bit TOD format value to nanoseconds means that the value must be divided by 4.096. In order to achieve that we multiply with 125 and divide by 512. When used within sched_clock() this triggers an overflow after appr. 417 days. Resulting in a sched_clock() return value that is much smaller than previously and therefore may cause all sort of weird things in subsystems that rely on a monotonic sched_clock() behaviour. To fix this implement a tod_to_ns() helper function which converts TOD values without overflow and call this function from both places that open coded the conversion: sched_clock() and kvm_s390_handle_wait().

When "alsactl restore" is performed on HDMI codecs, it tries to restore the channel map value since the channel map controls are writable. But hdmi_chmap_ctl_put() returns -EBADFD when no PCM stream is assigned yet, and this results in an error message from alsactl. Although the error is harmless, it's certainly ugly and can be regarded as a regression. As a workaround, this patch changes the return code in such a case to be zero for making others happy. (A slight excuse is: when the chmap is changed through the proper alsa-lib API, the PCM status is checked there anyway, so we don't have to be too strict in the kernel side.)

We realized that the power usage field is never filled and when it is filled for tegra, the power_specified flag is not set causing all of these values to be reset when the driver is initialized with set_power_state(). However, the power_specified flag can be simply removed under the assumption that the states are always backward sorted, which is the case with the current code. This change allows the menu governor select function and the cpuidle_play_dead() to be simplified. Moreover, the set_power_states() function can removed as it does not make sense any more. Drop the power_specified flag from struct cpuidle_driver and make the related changes as described above. As a consequence, this also fixes the bug where on the dynamic C-states system, the power fields are not initialized.
