      Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "This tree contains two main changes:
      
         - The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
           that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
           arch/x86/fpu/.
      
           The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
           understand.  This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
           code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).
      
           By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
           code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
           and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
           back to kernel side backs.  I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
           suspected) FPU related regression so far.
      
         - MPX support rework/fixes.  As this is still not a released CPU
           feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more
           robust now (Dave Hansen)"

         - x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas

        There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
        few select highlights:
      
        'perf bench':
      
            - Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
              measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
              locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)
      
        'perf top', 'perf report':
      
            - Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
              a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
              one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
              returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
              modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
            - Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
              perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)
      
        'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)
      
            - Support glob wildcards for function name
            - Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
            - Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
            - Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
            - Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
            - Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
              on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.
      
        'perf sched':
      
            - Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)
      
        Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
        upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
        and fixes and other improvements.  See (much) more details in the

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
       "In this pile: pathname resolution rewrite.
      
         - recursion in link_path_walk() is gone.
      
         - nesting limits on symlinks are gone (the only limit remaining is
           that the total amount of symlinks is no more than 40, no matter how
           nested).
      
         - "fast" (inline) symlinks are handled without leaving rcuwalk mode.
      
         - stack footprint (independent of the nesting) is below kilobyte now,
           about on par with what it used to be with one level of nested
           symlinks and ~2.8 times lower than it used to be in the worst case.
      
         - struct nameidata is entirely private to fs/namei.c now (not even
           opaque pointers are being passed around).
      
         - ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventions had been
           changed; all in-tree filesystems converted, out-of-tree should be
           able to follow reasonably easily.
      
           For out-of-tree conversions, see Documentation/filesystems/porting
           for details (and in-tree filesystems for examples of conversion).
      
        That has sat in -next since mid-May, seems to survive all testing
        without regressions and merges clean with v4.1"
