      After some consideration I decided to submit only Hyper-V reference
      counters support this time. I will submit iTSC support as a separate
      patch as soon as it is ready.
      
      v1 -> v2
      1. mark TSC page dirty as suggested by
          Eric Northup <digitaleric@google.com> and Gleb
      2. disable local irq when calling get_kernel_ns,
          as it was done by Peter Lieven <pl@amp.de>
      3. move check for TSC page enable from second patch
          to this one.
      
      v3 -> v4
          Get rid of ref counter offset.
      
      v4 -> v5
          replace __copy_to_user with kvm_write_guest
          when updateing iTSC page.

      sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE structures & implementation · aab03e05
      Dario Faggioli 提交于
      Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for
      SCHED_DEADLINE implementation.
      
      Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their
      initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy
      are also added where they are needed.
      
      Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called
      SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline
      First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called
      Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate
      the behaviour of tasks between each other.
      
      The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase
      (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The
      expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's
      runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed
      is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline
      is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an
      instance) activates plus the relative deadline.
      
      The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute
      deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each
      task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline
      length time interval, avoiding any interference between different
      tasks (bandwidth isolation).
      Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with
      the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new
      policy.
      
      To summarize, this patch:
       - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed;
       - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new
         scheduling class file;
       - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and
         the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl
         and the other existing scheduling classes.

      GFS2: Add hints to directory leaf blocks · 01bcb0de
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch adds four new fields to directory leaf blocks.
      The intent is not to use them in the kernel itself, although
      perhaps we may be able to use them as hints at some later date,
      but instead to provide more information for debug/fsck use.
      
      One new field adds a pointer to the inode to which the leaf
      belongs. This can be useful if the pointer to the leaf block
      has become corrupt, as it will allow us to know which inode
      this block should be associated with. This field is set when
      the leaf is created and never changed over its lifetime.
      
      The second field is a "distance from the hash table" field.
      The meaning is as follows:
       0  = An old leaf in which this value has not been set
       1  = This leaf is pointed to directly from the hash table
       2+ = This leaf is part of a chain, pointed to by another leaf
            block, the value gives the position in the chain.
      
      The third and fourth fields combine to give a time stamp of
      the most recent directory insertion or deletion from this
      leaf block. The time stamp is not updated when a new leaf
      block is chained from the current one. The code is currently
      written such that the timestamp on the dir inode will match
      that of the leaf block for the most recent insertion/deletion.
      
      For backwards compatibility, any of these new fields which is
      zero should be considered to be "unknown".

      KVM: arm-vgic: Support KVM_CREATE_DEVICE for VGIC · 7330672b
      Christoffer Dall 提交于
      Support creating the ARM VGIC device through the KVM_CREATE_DEVICE
      ioctl, which can then later be leveraged to use the
      KVM_{GET/SET}_DEVICE_ATTR, which is useful both for setting addresses in
      a more generic API than the ARM-specific one and is useful for
      save/restore of VGIC state.
      
      Adds KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL to ARM capabilities.
      
      Note that we change the check for creating a VGIC from bailing out if
      any VCPUs were created, to bailing out if any VCPUs were ever run.  This
      is an important distinction that shouldn't break anything, but allows
      creating the VGIC after the VCPUs have been created.

      PCI: Add Virtual Channel to save/restore support · 425c1b22
      Alex Williamson 提交于
      While we don't really have any infrastructure for making use of VC
      support, the system BIOS can configure the topology to non-default
      VC values prior to boot.  This may be due to silicon bugs, desire to
      reserve traffic classes, or perhaps just BIOS bugs.  When we reset
      devices, the VC configuration may return to default values, which can
      be incompatible with devices upstream.  For instance, Nvidia GRID
      cards provide a PCIe switch and some number of GPUs, all supporting
      VC.  The power-on default for VC is to support TC0-7 across VC0,
      however some platforms will only enable TC0/VC0 mapping across the
      topology.  When we do a secondary bus reset on the downstream switch
      port, the GPU is reset to a TC0-7/VC0 mapping while the opposite end
      of the link only enables TC0/VC0.  If the GPU attempts to use TC1-7,
      it fails.
      
      This patch attempts to provide complete support for VC save/restore,
      even beyond the minimally required use case above.  This includes
      save/restore and reload of the arbitration table, save/restore and
      reload of the port arbitration tables, and re-enabling of the
      channels for VC, VC9, and MFVC capabilities.

      genetlink/pmcraid: use proper genetlink multicast API · 5e53e689
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The pmcraid driver is abusing the genetlink API and is using its
      family ID as the multicast group ID, which is invalid and may
      belong to somebody else (and likely will.)
      
      Make it use the correct API, but since this may already be used
      as-is by userspace, reserve a family ID for this code and also
      reserve that group ID to not break userspace assumptions.
      
      My previous patch broke event delivery in the driver as I missed
      that it wasn't using the right API and forgot to update it later
      in my series.
      
      While changing this, I noticed that the genetlink code could use
      the static group ID instead of a strcmp(), so also do that for
      the VFS_DQUOT family.

      IB/core: extended command: an improved infrastructure for uverbs commands · f21519b2
      Yann Droneaud 提交于
      Commit 400dbc96 ("IB/core: Infrastructure for extensible uverbs
      commands") added an infrastructure for extensible uverbs commands
      while later commit 436f2ad0 ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow
      through uverbs") exported ib_create_flow()/ib_destroy_flow() functions
      using this new infrastructure.
      
      According to the commit 400dbc96, the purpose of this
      infrastructure is to support passing around provider (eg. hardware)
      specific buffers when userspace issue commands to the kernel, so that
      it would be possible to extend uverbs (eg. core) buffers independently
      from the provider buffers.
      
      But the new kernel command function prototypes were not modified to
      take advantage of this extension. This issue was exposed by Roland
      Dreier in a previous review[1].
      
      So the following patch is an attempt to a revised extensible command
      infrastructure.
      
      This improved extensible command infrastructure distinguish between
      core (eg. legacy)'s command/response buffers from provider
      (eg. hardware)'s command/response buffers: each extended command
      implementing function is given a struct ib_udata to hold core
      (eg. uverbs) input and output buffers, and another struct ib_udata to
      hold the hw (eg. provider) input and output buffers.
      
      Having those buffers identified separately make it easier to increase
      one buffer to support extension without having to add some code to
      guess the exact size of each command/response parts: This should make
      the extended functions more reliable.
      
      Additionally, instead of relying on command identifier being greater
      than IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_THRESHOLD, the proposed infrastructure rely on
      unused bits in command field: on the 32 bits provided by command
      field, only 6 bits are really needed to encode the identifier of
      commands currently supported by the kernel. (Even using only 6 bits
      leaves room for about 23 new commands).
      
      So this patch makes use of some high order bits in command field to
      store flags, leaving enough room for more command identifiers than one
      will ever need (eg. 256).
      
      The new flags are used to specify if the command should be processed
      as an extended one or a legacy one. While designing the new command
      format, care was taken to make usage of flags itself extensible.
      
      Using high order bits of the commands field ensure that newer
      libibverbs on older kernel will properly fail when trying to call
      extended commands. On the other hand, older libibverbs on newer kernel
      will never be able to issue calls to extended commands.
      
      The extended command header includes the optional response pointer so
      that output buffer length and output buffer pointer are located
      together in the command, allowing proper parameters checking. This
      should make implementing functions easier and safer.
      
      Additionally the extended header ensure 64bits alignment, while making
      all sizes multiple of 8 bytes, extending the maximum buffer size:
      
                                   legacy      extended
      
         Maximum command buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)
        Maximum response buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)
      
      For the purpose of doing proper buffer size accounting, the headers
      size are no more taken in account in "in_words".
      
      One of the odds of the current extensible infrastructure, reading
      twice the "legacy" command header, is fixed by removing the "legacy"
      command header from the extended command header: they are processed as
      two different parts of the command: memory is read once and
      information are not duplicated: it's making clear that's an extended
      command scheme and not a different command scheme.
      
      The proposed scheme will format input (command) and output (response)
      buffers this way:
      
      - command:
      
        legacy header +
        extended header +
        command data (core + hw):

          |                                        |
          +----------------------------------------+
      
      The overall design is to ensure that the extensible infrastructure is
      itself extensible while begin more reliable with more input and bound
      checking.
      
      Note:
      
      The unused field in the extended header would be perfect candidate to
      hold the command "comp_mask" (eg. bit field used to handle
      compatibility).  This was suggested by Roland Dreier in a previous
      review[2].  But "comp_mask" field is likely to be present in the uverb
      input and/or provider input, likewise for the response, as noted by
      Matan Barak[3], so it doesn't make sense to put "comp_mask" in the
      header.
