      arch/ia64: Define early_memunmap() · 4fa62481
      由 Daniel Kiper 提交于 
      This is odd to use early_iounmap() function do tear down mapping
created by early_memremap() function, even if it works right now,
because they belong to different set of functions. The former is
I/O related function and the later is memory related. So, create
early_memunmap() macro which in real is early_iounmap(). This
thing will help to not confuse code readers longer by mixing
functions from different classes.

EFI patches following this patch uses that functionality.

      arch, locking: Ciao arch_mutex_cpu_relax() · 3a6bfbc9
      由 Davidlohr Bueso 提交于 
      The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f8, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.

This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency  ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

      mm: disable zone_reclaim_mode by default · 4f9b16a6
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      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.

      ACPICA: Linux headers: Add <asm/acenv.h> to remove mis-ordered inclusion of <asm/acpi.h> · 07d83914
      由 Lv Zheng 提交于 
      There is a mis-order inclusion for <asm/acpi.h>.

As we will enforce including <linux/acpi.h> for all Linux ACPI users, we
can find the inclusion order is as follows:

<linux/acpi.h>
  <acpi/acpi.h>
   <acpi/platform/acenv.h>
    (acenv.h before including aclinux.h)
    <acpi/platform/aclinux.h>
...........................................................................
     (aclinux.h before including asm/acpi.h)
     <asm/acpi.h>                             @Redundant@
      (ACPICA specific stuff)
...........................................................................
...........................................................................
      (Linux ACPI specific stuff) ? - - - - - - - - - - - - +
     (aclinux.h after including asm/acpi.h)   @Invisible@   |
    (acenv.h after including aclinux.h)       @Invisible@   |
   other ACPICA headers                       @Invisible@   |
............................................................|..............
  <acpi/acpi_bus.h>                                         |
  <acpi/acpi_drivers.h>                                     |
  <asm/acpi.h> (Excluded)                                   |
   (Linux ACPI specific stuff) ! <- - - - - - - - - - - - - +

NOTE that, in ACPICA, <acpi/platform/acenv.h> is more like Kconfig
generated <generated/autoconf.h> for Linux, it is meant to be included
before including any ACPICA code.

In the above figure, there is a question mark for "Linux ACPI specific
stuff" in <asm/acpi.h> which should be included after including all other
ACPICA header files.  Thus they really need to be moved to the position
marked with exclaimation mark or the definitions in the blocks marked with
"@Invisible@" will be invisible to such architecture specific "Linux ACPI
specific stuff" header blocks.  This leaves 2 issues:
1. All environmental definitions in these blocks should have a copy in the
   area marked with "@Redundant@" if they are required by the "Linux ACPI
   specific stuff".
2. We cannot use any ACPICA defined types in <asm/acpi.h>.

This patch splits architecture specific ACPICA stuff from <asm/acpi.h> to
fix this issue.

      mm: split 'tlb_flush_mmu()' into tlb flushing and memory freeing parts · 1cf35d47
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The mmu-gather operation 'tlb_flush_mmu()' has done two things: the
actual tlb flush operation, and the batched freeing of the pages that
the TLB entries pointed at.

This splits the operation into separate phases, so that the forced
batched flushing done by zap_pte_range() can now do the actual TLB flush
while still holding the page table lock, but delay the batched freeing
of all the pages to after the lock has been dropped.

This in turn allows us to avoid a race condition between
set_page_dirty() (as called by zap_pte_range() when it finds a dirty
shared memory pte) and page_mkclean(): because we now flush all the
dirty page data from the TLB's while holding the pte lock,
page_mkclean() will be held up walking the (recently cleaned) page
tables until after the TLB entries have been flushed from all CPU's.

      net: introduce SO_BPF_EXTENSIONS · ea02f941
      由 Michal Sekletar 提交于 
      For user space packet capturing libraries such as libpcap, there's
currently only one way to check which BPF extensions are supported
by the kernel, that is, commit aa1113d9 ("net: filter: return
-EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported"). For querying all
extensions at once this might be rather inconvenient.

Therefore, this patch introduces a new option which can be used as
an argument for getsockopt(), and allows one to obtain information
about which BPF extensions are supported by the current kernel.

As David Miller suggests, we do not need to define any bits right
now and status quo can just return 0 in order to state that this
versions supports SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET. Later
additions to BPF extensions need to add their bits to the
bpf_tell_extensions() function, as documented in the comment.

      arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release() · 47933ad4
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads.  Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.

This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation.  The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes.  These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.

In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability.  It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits.  It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.

      ACPI / driver core: Store an ACPI device pointer in struct acpi_dev_node · 7b199811
      由 Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于 
      Modify struct acpi_dev_node to contain a pointer to struct acpi_device
associated with the given device object (that is, its ACPI companion
device) instead of an ACPI handle corresponding to it.  Introduce two
new macros for manipulating that pointer in a CONFIG_ACPI-safe way,
ACPI_COMPANION() and ACPI_COMPANION_SET(), and rework the
ACPI_HANDLE() macro to take the above changes into account.
Drop the ACPI_HANDLE_SET() macro entirely and rework its users to
use ACPI_COMPANION_SET() instead.  For some of them who used to
pass the result of acpi_get_child() directly to ACPI_HANDLE_SET()
introduce a helper routine acpi_preset_companion() doing an
equivalent thing.

The main motivation for doing this is that there are things
represented by struct acpi_device objects that don't have valid
ACPI handles (so called fixed ACPI hardware features, such as
power and sleep buttons) and we would like to create platform
device objects for them and "glue" them to their ACPI companions
in the usual way (which currently is impossible due to the
lack of valid ACPI handles).  However, there are more reasons
why it may be useful.

First, struct acpi_device pointers allow of much better type checking
than void pointers which are ACPI handles, so it should be more
difficult to write buggy code using modified struct acpi_dev_node
and the new macros.  Second, the change should help to reduce (over
time) the number of places in which the result of ACPI_HANDLE() is
passed to acpi_bus_get_device() in order to obtain a pointer to the
struct acpi_device associated with the given "physical" device,
because now that pointer is returned by ACPI_COMPANION() directly.
Finally, the change should make it easier to write generic code that
will build both for CONFIG_ACPI set and unset without adding explicit
compiler directives to it.

      exec/ptrace: fix get_dumpable() incorrect tests · d049f74f
      由 Kees Cook 提交于 
      The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean.  Most users of the
function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than
SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0).  The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a
protected state.  Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two
places fixed in this patch.

Wrong logic:
    if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ }

Correct logic:
    if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ }

Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a
user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to
that user.  (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.)

The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(),
which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

      xen: introduce xen_alloc/free_coherent_pages · d6fe76c5
      由 Stefano Stabellini 提交于 
      xen_swiotlb_alloc_coherent needs to allocate a coherent buffer for cpu
and devices. On native x86 is sufficient to call __get_free_pages in
order to get a coherent buffer, while on ARM (and potentially ARM64) we
need to call the native dma_ops->alloc implementation.

Introduce xen_alloc_coherent_pages to abstract the arch specific buffer
allocation.

Similarly introduce xen_free_coherent_pages to free a coherent buffer:
on x86 is simply a call to free_pages while on ARM and ARM64 is
arm_dma_ops.free.
Signed-off-by: NStefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>


Changes in v7:
- rename __get_dma_ops to __generic_dma_ops;
- call __generic_dma_ops(hwdev)->alloc/free on arm64 too.

Changes in v6:
- call __get_dma_ops to get the native dma_ops pointer on arm.

      net: introduce SO_MAX_PACING_RATE · 62748f32
      由 Eric Dumazet 提交于 
      As mentioned in commit afe4fd06 ("pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet
scheduler"), this patch adds a new socket option.

SO_MAX_PACING_RATE offers the application the ability to cap the
rate computed by transport layer. Value is in bytes per second.

u32 val = 1000000;
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_MAX_PACING_RATE, &val, sizeof(val));

To be effectively paced, a flow must use FQ packet scheduler.

Note that a packet scheduler takes into account the headers for its
computations. The effective payload rate depends on MSS and retransmits
if any.

I chose to make this pacing rate a SOL_SOCKET option instead of a
TCP one because this can be used by other protocols.
