       "As expected, fixes started trickling in after the holidays so here is
        the accumulated pile of x86 fixes for 5.11:
      
         - A fix for fanotify_mark() missing the conversion of x86_32 native
           syscalls which take 64-bit arguments to the compat handlers due to
           former having a general compat handler. (Brian Gerst)
      
         - Add a forgotten pmd page destructor call to pud_free_pmd_page()
           where a pmd page is freed. (Dan Williams)
      
         - Make IN/OUT insns with an u8 immediate port operand handling for
           SEV-ES guests more precise by using only the single port byte and
           not the whole s32 value of the insn decoder. (Peter Gonda)
      
         - Correct a straddling end range check before returning the proper
           MTRR type, when the end address is the same as top of memory.
           (Ying-Tsun Huang)
      
         - Change PQR_ASSOC MSR update scheme when moving a task to a resctrl
           resource group to avoid significant performance overhead with some
           resctrl workloads. (Fenghua Yu)

      poll: fix performance regression due to out-of-line __put_user() · ef0ba055
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The kernel test robot reported a -5.8% performance regression on the
      "poll2" test of will-it-scale, and bisected it to commit d55564cf
      ("x86: Make __put_user() generate an out-of-line call").
      
      I didn't expect an out-of-line __put_user() to matter, because no normal
      core code should use that non-checking legacy version of user access any
      more.  But I had overlooked the very odd poll() usage, which does a
      __put_user() to update the 'revents' values of the poll array.
      
      Now, Al Viro correctly points out that instead of updating just the
      'revents' field, it would be much simpler to just copy the _whole_
      pollfd entry, and then we could just use "copy_to_user()" on the whole
      array of entries, the same way we use "copy_from_user()" a few lines
      earlier to get the original values.
      
      But that is not what we've traditionally done, and I worry that threaded
      applications might be concurrently modifying the other fields of the
      pollfd array.  So while Al's suggestion is simpler - and perhaps worth
      trying in the future - this instead keeps the "just update revents"
      model.
      
      To fix the performance regression, use the modern "unsafe_put_user()"
      instead of __put_user(), with the proper "user_write_access_begin()"
      guarding in place. This improves code generation enormously.

      Revert "init/console: Use ttynull as a fallback when there is no console" · a91bd622
      Petr Mladek 提交于
      This reverts commit 757055ae.
      
      The commit caused that ttynull was used as the default console
      on several systems[1][2][3]. As a result, the console was
      blank even when a better alternative existed.
      
      It happened when there was no console configured
      on the command line and ttynull_init() was the first initcall
      calling register_console().
      
      Or it happened when /dev/ did not exist when console_on_rootfs()
      was called. It was not able to open /dev/console even though
      a console driver was registered. It tried to add ttynull console
      but it obviously did not help. But ttynull became the preferred
      console and was used by /dev/console when it was available later.
      
      The commit tried to fix a historical problem that have been there
      for ages. The primary motivation was the commit 3cffa06a
      ("printk/console: Allow to disable console output by using console=""
       or console=null"). It provided a clean solution for a workaround
       that was widely used and worked only by chance.
      
      This revert causes that the console="" or console=null command line
      options will again work only by chance. These options will cause that
      a particular console will be preferred and the default (tty) ones
      will not get enabled. There will be no console registered at
      all. As a result there won't be stdin, stdout, and stderr for
      the init process. But it worked exactly this way even before.
      
      The proper solution has to fulfill many conditions:
      
        + Register ttynull only when explicitly required or as
          the ultimate fallback.
      
        + ttynull should get associated with /dev/console but it must
          not become preferred console when used as a fallback.
          Especially, it must still be possible to replace it
          by a better console later.
      
      Such a change requires clean up of the register_console() code.
      Otherwise, it would be even harder to follow. Especially, the use
      of has_preferred_console and CON_CONSDEV flag is tricky. The clean
      up is risky. The ordering of consoles is not well defined. And
      any changes tend to break existing user settings.
      
      Do the revert at the least risky solution for now.
