       "The time/timekeeping/timer folks deliver with this update:
      
         - Fix a reintroduced signed/unsigned issue and cleanup the whole
           signed/unsigned mess in the timekeeping core so this wont happen
           accidentaly again.
      
         - Add a new trace clock based on boot time
      
         - Prevent injection of random sleep times when PM tracing abuses the
           RTC for storage
      
         - Make posix timers configurable for real tiny systems
      
         - Add tracepoints for the alarm timer subsystem so timer based
           suspend wakeups can be instrumented
      
         - The usual pile of fixes and updates to core and drivers"

      Pull smp hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "This is the final round of converting the notifier mess to the state
        machine. The removal of the notifiers and the related infrastructure
        will happen around rc1, as there are conversions outstanding in other
        trees.
      
        The whole exercise removed about 2000 lines of code in total and in
        course of the conversion several dozen bugs got fixed. The new
        mechanism allows to test almost every hotplug step standalone, so
        usage sites can exercise all transitions extensively.
      
        There is more room for improvement, like integrating all the
        pointlessly different architecture mechanisms of synchronizing,
        setting cpus online etc into the core code"

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull x86 microcode update from Ingo Molnar:
       "The biggest change (by Borislav Petkov) is a thorough rewrite of the
        Intel microcode loader and its interactions with the core code.
      
        The biggest conceptual change is the decoupling of the microcode
        loading on boot and application processors (which load the microcode
        in different scenarios), so that both parse the input patches with as
        few assumptions as possible - this also fixes various kernel address
        space randomization bugs. (The AP side then goes on and caches the
        result to improve boot performance.)
      
        Since the AMD side already did this, this change also opened up the
        path towards more unification/simplification of the core microcode
        loading infrastructure:

       "There were two bigger changes in this development cycle:
      
         - remove idle notifiers:
      
             32 files changed, 74 insertions(+), 803 deletions(-)
      
           These notifiers were of questionable value and the main usecase,
           the i7300 driver, was essentially unmaintained and can be removed,
           plus modern power management concepts don't need the callback - so
           use this golden opportunity and get rid of this opaque and fragile
           callback from a latency sensitive code path.

      Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "This update is pretty big and almost exclusively includes tooling
        changes, because v4.9's LTS status forced to completion most of the
        pending kernel side hardware enablement work and because we tried to
        freeze core perf work a bit to give a time window for the fuzzing
        efforts.
      
        The diff is large mostly due to the JSON hardware event tables added
        for Intel and Power8 CPUs. This was a popular feature request from
        people working close to hardware and from the HPC community.
      
        Tree size is big because this added the CPU event tables for over a
        decade of Intel CPUs. Future changes for a CPU vendor alrady support
        should be much smaller, as events for new models are added. The new
        events are listed in 'perf list', for the CPU model the tool is
        running on. If you find an interesting event it can be used as-is:
      
            $ perf stat -a -e l2_lines_out.pf_clean sleep 1
      
            Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
      
                  7,860,403      l2_lines_out.pf_clean
      
                 1.000624918 seconds time elapsed
      
        The event lists can be searched the usual 'perf list' fashion for
        (case insensitive) substrings as well:
      
            $ perf list l2_lines_out
      
            List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
      
            cache:
              l2_lines_out.demand_clean
                   [Clean L2 cache lines evicted by demand]
              l2_lines_out.demand_dirty
                   [Dirty L2 cache lines evicted by demand]
              l2_lines_out.dirty_all
                   [Dirty L2 cache lines filling the L2]
              l2_lines_out.pf_clean
                   [Clean L2 cache lines evicted by L2 prefetch]
              l2_lines_out.pf_dirty
                   [Dirty L2 cache lines evicted by L2 prefetch]
      
        etc.
      
        There's a few high level categories as well that can be listed:
        'cache', 'floating point', 'frontend', 'memory', 'pipeline', 'virtual
        memory'.
      
        Existing generic events and workflows should work as-is.
      
        The only kernel side change is a late breaking fix for an older
        regression, related to Intel BTS, LBR and PT feature interaction.
      
        On the tooling side there are three new tools / major features:
      
         - The new 'perf c2c' tool provides means for Shared Data C2C/HITM
           analysis.
      
           This allows you to track down cacheline contention. The tool is
           based on x86's load latency and precise store facility events
           provided by Intel CPUs.
      
           It was tested by Joe Mario and has proven to be useful, finding
           some cacheline contentions. Joe also wrote a blog about c2c tool
           with examples:
      
              https://joemario.github.io/blog/2016/09/01/c2c-blog/
      
           excerpt of the content on this site:
      
               At a high level, “perf c2c” will show you:
      
                * The cachelines where false sharing was detected.
                * The readers and writers to those cachelines, and the offsets where those accesses occurred.
                * The pid, tid, instruction addr, function name, binary object name for those readers and writers.
                * The source file and line number for each reader and writer.
                * The average load latency for the loads to those cachelines.
                * Which numa nodes the samples a cacheline came from and which CPUs were involved.
      
               Using perf c2c is similar to using the Linux perf tool today.
               First collect data with “perf c2c record”, then generate a
               report output with “perf c2c report”
      
           There one finds extensive details on using the tool, with tips on
           reducing the volume of samples while still capturing enough to do
           its job. (Dick Fowles, Joe Mario, Don Zickus, Jiri Olsa)
      
         - The new 'perf sched timehist' tool provides tailored analysis of
           scheduling events.
      
           Example usage:
      
                perf sched record -- sleep 1
                perf sched timehist
      
           By default it shows the individual schedule events, including the
           wait time (time between sched-out and next sched-in events for the
           task), the task scheduling delay (time between wakeup and actually
           running) and run time for the task:
      
                  time    cpu  task name         wait time  sch delay  run time
                               [tid/pid]            (msec)     (msec)    (msec)
              -------- ------  ----------------  ---------  ---------  --------
              1.874569 [0011]  gcc[31949]            0.014      0.000     1.148

            ...
      
           Times are in msec.usec. (David Ahern, Namhyung Kim)
      
         - Add CPU vendor hardware event tables:
      
           Add JSON files with vendor event naming for Intel and Power8
           processors, allowing users of tools like oprofile to keep using the
           event names they are used to, as well as people reading vendor
           documentation, where such naming is used. (Andi Kleen, Sukadev
           Bhattiprolu)
      
           You should see all the new events with 'perf list' and you should
           be able to search them, for example 'perf list miss' will list all
           the myriads of miss events.
      
        Other tooling features added were:
      
         - Cross-arch annotation support:
      
           o Improve ARM support in the annotation code, affecting 'perf
             annotate', 'perf report' and live annotation in 'perf top' (Kim
             Phillips)
      
           o Initial support for PowerPC in the annotation code (Ravi
             Bangoria)
      
           o Support AArch64 in the 'annotate' code, native/local and
             cross-arch/remote (Kim Phillips)
      
         - Allow considering just events in a given time interval, via the
           '--time start.s.ms,end.s.ms' command line, added to 'perf kmem',
           'perf report', 'perf sched timehist' and 'perf script' (David
           Ahern)
      
         - Add option to stop printing a callchain at one of a given group of
           symbol names (David Ahern)
      
         - Track memory freed in 'perf kmem stat' (David Ahern)
      
         - Allow querying and setting .perfconfig variables (Taeung Song)
      
         - Show branch information in callchains (predicted, TSX aborts, loop
           iteractions, etc) (Jin Yao)
      
         - Dynamicly change verbosity level by pressing 'V' in the 'perf
           top/report' hists TUI browser (Alexis Berlemont)
      
         - Implement 'perf trace --delay' in the same fashion as in 'perf
           record --delay', to skip sampling workload initialization events
           (Alexis Berlemont)
      
         - Make vendor named events case insensitive in 'perf list', i.e.
           'perf list LONGEST_LAT' works just the same as 'perf list
           longest_lat' (Andi Kleen)
      
         - Add unwinding support for jitdump (Stefano Sanfilippo)
      
        Tooling infrastructure changes:
      
         - Support linking perf with clang and LLVM libraries, initially
           statically, but this limitation will be lifted and shared
           libraries, when available, will be preferred to the static build,
           that should, as with other features, be enabled explicitly (Wang
           Nan)
      
         - Add initial support (and perf test entry) for tooling hooks,
           starting with 'record_start' and 'record_end', that will have as
           its initial user the eBPF infrastructure, where perf_ prefixed
           functions will be JITed and run when such hooks are called (Wang
           Nan)
      
         - Implement assorted libbpf improvements (Wang Nan)"
      
        ... and lots of other changes, features, cleanups and refactorings I
        did not list, see the shortlog and the git log for details"

         - Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex

         - Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the

           optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
           Christian Borntraeger)
      
         - Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
           clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
           kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)
      
         - Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)
      
         - Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
           interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
           get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
           sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
           not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

      During page fault handling we check the last instruction to understand
      if the fault was for a read or for a write.  By default we fall back to
      read.  New instructions were added to the openrisc 1.1 spec for an
      atomic load/store pair (l.lwa/l.swa).
      
      This patch adds the opcode for l.swa (0x33) allowing it to be treated as
      a write operation.

      Rob Herring authored
      The of_platform_populate call in the openrisc arch code is now redundant
      as the DT core provides a default call. Openrisc has a NULL match table
      which means only top level nodes with compatible strings will have
      devices creates. The default version will also descend nodes in the
      match table such as "simple-bus" which should be fine as openrisc
      doesn't have any of these (though it is preferred that memory-mapped
      peripherals be grouped under a bus node(s)).

      openrisc: restore all regs on rt_sigreturn · c7990219
      Jonas Bonn authored
      Fix signal handling for when signals are handled as the result of timers
      or exceptions, previous code assumed syscalls. This was noticeable with X
      crashing where it uses SIGALRM.
      
      This patch restores all regs before returning to userspace via
      _resume_userspace instead of via syscall return path.
      
      The rt_sigreturn syscall is more like a context switch than a function
      call; it entails a return from one context (the signal handler) to another
      (the process in question).  For a context switch like this there are
      effectively no call-saved regs that remain constant across the transition.

      openrisc: fix PTRS_PER_PGD define · f4770609
      Stefan Kristiansson authored
      On OpenRISC, with its 8k pages, PAGE_SHIFT is defined to be 13.
      That makes the expression (1UL << (PAGE_SHIFT-2)) evaluate
      to 2048.
      The correct value for PTRS_PER_PGD should be 256.
      
      Correcting the PTRS_PER_PGD define unveiled a bug in map_ram(),
      where PTRS_PER_PGD was used when the intent was to iterate
      over a set of page table entries.
      This patch corrects that issue as well.
