Pull parisc update from Helge Deller: "This patchset adds Huge Page and HUGETLBFS support for parisc" Honestly, the hugepage support should have gone through in the merge window, and is not really an rc-time fix. But it only touches arch/parisc, and I cannot find it in myself to care. If one of the three parisc users notices a breakage, I will point at Helge and make rude farting noises. * 'parisc-4.4-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Map kernel text and data on huge pages parisc: Add Huge Page and HUGETLBFS support parisc: Use long branch to do_syscall_trace_exit parisc: Increase initial kernel mapping to 32MB on 64bit kernel parisc: Initialize the fault vector earlier in the boot process. parisc: Add defines for Huge page support parisc: Drop unused MADV_xxxK_PAGES flags from asm/mman.h parisc: Drop definition of start_thread_som for HP-UX SOM binaries parisc: Fix wrong comment regarding first pmd entry flags

Adjust the linker script and map_pages() to map kernel text and data on physical 1MB huge/large pages. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Helge Deller authored
This patch adds huge page support to allow userspace to allocate huge pages and to use hugetlbfs filesystem on 32- and 64-bit Linux kernels. A later patch will add kernel support to map kernel text and data on huge pages. The only requirement is, that the kernel needs to be compiled for a PA8X00 CPU (PA2.0 architecture). Older PA1.X CPUs do not support variable page sizes. 64bit Kernels are compiled for PA2.0 by default. Technically on parisc multiple physical huge pages may be needed to emulate standard 2MB huge pages. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

For the 64bit kernel the initially 16 MB kernel memory might become too small if you build a kernel with many modules built-in and with kernel text and data areas mapped on huge pages. This patch increases the initial mapping to 32MB for 64bit kernels and keeps 16MB for 32bit kernels. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

A fault vector on parisc needs to be 2K aligned. Furthermore the checksum of the fault vector needs to sum up to 0 which is being calculated and written at runtime. Up to now we aligned both PA20 and PA11 fault vectors on the same 4K page in order to easily write the checksum after having mapped the kernel read-only (by mapping this page only as read-write). But when we want to map the kernel text and data on huge pages this makes things harder. So, simplify it by aligning both fault vectors on 2K boundries and write the checksum before we map the page read-only. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Huge pages on parisc will have the same size as one pmd table, which is on a 64bit kernel 2MB on a kernel with 4K kernel page sizes, and on a 32bit kernel 4MB when used with 4K kernel pages. Since parisc does not physically supports 2MB huge page sizes, emulate it with two consecutive 1MB page sizes instead. Keeping the same huge page size as one pmd will allow us to add transparent huge page support later on. Bit 21 in the pte flags was unused and will now be used to mark a page as huge page (_PAGE_HPAGE_BIT). Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

sigsuspend() is nowhere used except in signal.c itself, so we can mark it static do not pollute the global namespace. But this patch is more than a boring cleanup patch, it fixes a real issue on UserModeLinux. UML has a special console driver to display ttys using xterm, or other terminal emulators, on the host side. Vegard reported that sometimes UML is unable to spawn a xterm and he's facing the following warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 908 at include/linux/thread_info.h:128 sigsuspend+0xab/0xc0() It turned out that this warning makes absolutely no sense as the UML xterm code calls sigsuspend() on the host side, at least it tries. But as the kernel itself offers a sigsuspend() symbol the linker choose this one instead of the glibc wrapper. Interestingly this code used to work since ever but always blocked signals on the wrong side. Some recent kernel change made the WARN_ON() trigger and uncovered the bug. It is a wonderful example of how much works by chance on computers. :-) Fixes: 68f3f16d ("new helper: sigsuspend()") Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at> Reported-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Tested-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [3.5+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

For the root directory, . and .. are faked (using dir_emit_dots()) and ctx->pos is reset from 2 to 0. A corrupted root directory could cause fat_get_entry() to fail, but ->iterate() (fat_readdir()) reports progress to the VFS (with ctx->pos rewound to 0), so any following calls to ->iterate() continue to return the same entries again and again. The result is that userspace will never see the end of the directory, causing e.g. 'ls' to hang in a getdents() loop.

Hugh Dickins pointed out problems with the new hugetlbfs fallocate hole punch code. These problems are in the routine remove_inode_hugepages and mostly occur in the case where there are holes in the range of pages to be removed. These holes could be the result of a previous hole punch or simply sparse allocation. The current code could access pages outside the specified range. remove_inode_hugepages handles both hole punch and truncate operations. Page index handling was fixed/cleaned up so that the loop index always matches the page being processed. The code now only makes a single pass through the range of pages as it was determined page faults could not race with truncate. A cond_resched() was added after removing up to PAGEVEC_SIZE pages. Some totally unnecessary code in hugetlbfs_fallocate() that remained from early development was also removed.

MADV_NOHUGEPAGE processing is too restrictive. kvm already disables hugepage but hugepage_madvise() takes the error path when we ask to turn on the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE bit and the bit is already on. This causes Qemu's new postcopy migration feature to fail on s390 because its first action is to madvise the guest address space as NOHUGEPAGE.

This patchset introduces IIO software triggers, offers a way of configuring them via configfs and adds the IIO hrtimer based interrupt source to be used with software triggers. The architecture is now split in 3 parts, to remove all IIO trigger specific parts from IIO configfs core: (1) IIO configfs - creates the root of the IIO configfs subsys. (2) IIO software triggers - software trigger implementation, dynamically creating /config/iio/triggers group. (3) IIO hrtimer trigger - is the first interrupt source for software triggers (with syfs to follow). Each trigger type can implement its own set of attributes. Lockdep seems to be happy with the locking in configfs patch. This patch (of 5): We don't want to hardcode default groups at subsystem creation time. We export: * configfs_register_group * configfs_unregister_group to allow drivers to programatically create/destroy groups later, after module init time. This is needed for IIO configfs support.

The various allocators return aligned memory. Telling the compiler that allows it to generate better code in many cases, for example when the return value is immediately passed to memset(). Some code does become larger, but at least we win twice as much as we lose: $ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/vmlinux vmlinux add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 13/52 up/down: 995/-2140 (-1145) An example of the different (and smaller) code can be seen in mm_alloc(). Before: : 48 8d 78 08 lea 0x8(%rax),%rdi : 48 89 c1 mov %rax,%rcx : 48 89 c2 mov %rax,%rdx : 48 c7 00 00 00 00 00 movq $0x0,(%rax) : 48 c7 80 48 03 00 00 movq $0x0,0x348(%rax) : 00 00 00 00 : 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax : 48 83 e7 f8 and $0xfffffffffffffff8,%rdi : 48 29 f9 sub %rdi,%rcx : 81 c1 50 03 00 00 add $0x350,%ecx : c1 e9 03 shr $0x3,%ecx : f3 48 ab rep stos %rax,%es:(%rdi) After: : 48 89 c2 mov %rax,%rdx : b9 6a 00 00 00 mov $0x6a,%ecx : 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax : 48 89 d7 mov %rdx,%rdi : f3 48 ab rep stos %rax,%es:(%rdi) So gcc's strategy is to do two possibly (but not really, of course) unaligned stores to the first and last word, then do an aligned rep stos covering the middle part with a little overlap. Maybe arches which do not allow unaligned stores gain even more. I don't know if gcc can actually make use of alignments greater than 8 for anything, so one could probably drop the __assume_xyz_alignment macros and just use __assume_aligned(8). The increases in code size are mostly caused by gcc deciding to opencode strlen() using the check-four-bytes-at-a-time trick when it knows the buffer is sufficiently aligned (one function grew by 200 bytes). Now it turns out that many of these strlen() calls showing up were in fact redundant, and they're gone from -next. Applying the two patches to next-20151001 bloat-o-meter instead says add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 6/52 up/down: 244/-2140 (-1896) Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: - A collection of crash and deadlock fixes for DAX that are also tagged for -stable. We will look to re-enable DAX pmd mappings in 4.5, but for now 4.4 and -stable should disable it by default. - A fixup to ext2 and ext4 to mirror the same warning emitted by XFS when mounting with "-o dax" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: block: protect rw_page against device teardown mm, dax: fix DAX deadlocks (COW fault) dax: disable pmd mappings ext2, ext4: warn when mounting with dax enabled

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki: "These are mostly fixes and cleanups (ACPI core, PM core, cpufreq, ACPI EC driver, device properties) including three reverts of recent intel_pstate driver commits due to a regression introduced by one of them plus support for Atom Airmont cores in intel_pstate (which really boils down to adding new frequency tables for Airmont) and additional turbostat updates. Specifics: - Revert three recent intel_pstate driver commits one of which introduced a regression and the remaining two depend on the problematic one (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix breakage related to the recently introduced ACPI _CCA object support in the PCI DMA setup code (Suravee Suthikulpanit). - Fix up the recently introduced ACPI CPPC support to only use the hardware-reduced version of the PCCT structure as the only architecture to support it (ARM64) will only use hardware-reduced ACPI anyway (Ashwin Chaugule). - Fix a cpufreq mediatek driver build problem (Arnd Bergmann). - Fix the SMBus transaction handling implementation in the ACPI core to avoid re-entrant calls to wait_event_timeout() which makes intermittent boot stalls related to the Smart Battery Subsystem initialization go away and revert a workaround of another problem with the same underlying root cause (Chris Bainbridge). - Fix the generic wakeup interrupts framework to avoid using invalid IRQ numbers (Dmitry Torokhov). - Remove a redundant check from the ACPI EC driver (Markus Elfring). - Modify the intel_pstate driver so it can support more Atom flavors than just one (Baytrail) and add support for Atom Airmont cores (which require new freqnency tables) to it (Philippe Longepe). - Clean up MSR-related symbols in turbostat (Len Brown)" * tag 'pm+acpi-4.4-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: PCI: Fix OF logic in pci_dma_configure() Revert "Documentation: kernel_parameters for Intel P state driver" cpufreq: mediatek: fix build error cpufreq: intel_pstate: Add separate support for Airmont cores cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace BYT with ATOM Revert "cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use ACPI perf configuration" Revert "cpufreq: intel_pstate: Avoid calculation for max/min" ACPI-EC: Drop unnecessary check made before calling acpi_ec_delete_query() Revert "ACPI / SBS: Add 5 us delay to fix SBS hangs on MacBook" ACPI / SMBus: Fix boot stalls / high CPU caused by reentrant code PM / wakeirq: check that wake IRQ is valid before accepting it ACPI / CPPC: Use h/w reduced version of the PCCT structure x86: remove unused definition of MSR_NHM_PLATFORM_INFO tools/power turbostat: use new name for MSR_PLATFORM_INFO
