      Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
       "x86:
      
         - Support for userspace to emulate Xen hypercalls
      
         - Raise the maximum number of user memslots
      
         - Scalability improvements for the new MMU.
      
           Instead of the complex "fast page fault" logic that is used in
           mmu.c, tdp_mmu.c uses an rwlock so that page faults are concurrent,
           but the code that can run against page faults is limited. Right now
           only page faults take the lock for reading; in the future this will
           be extended to some cases of page table destruction. I hope to
           switch the default MMU around 5.12-rc3 (some testing was delayed
           due to Chinese New Year).
      
         - Cleanups for MAXPHYADDR checks
      
         - Use static calls for vendor-specific callbacks
      
         - On AMD, use VMLOAD/VMSAVE to save and restore host state
      
         - Stop using deprecated jump label APIs
      
         - Workaround for AMD erratum that made nested virtualization
           unreliable
      
         - Support for LBR emulation in the guest
      
         - Support for communicating bus lock vmexits to userspace
      
         - Add support for SEV attestation command
      
         - Miscellaneous cleanups
      
        PPC:
      
         - Support for second data watchpoint on POWER10
      
         - Remove some complex workarounds for buggy early versions of POWER9
      
         - Guest entry/exit fixes
      
        ARM64:
      
         - Make the nVHE EL2 object relocatable
      
         - Cleanups for concurrent translation faults hitting the same page
      
         - Support for the standard TRNG hypervisor call
      
         - A bunch of small PMU/Debug fixes
      
         - Simplification of the early init hypercall handling
      
        Non-KVM changes (with acks):
      
         - Detection of contended rwlocks (implemented only for qrwlocks,
           because KVM only needs it for x86)
      
         - Allow __DISABLE_EXPORTS from assembly code
      
         - Provide a saner follow_pfn replacements for modules"

         two-parameter sampling event feedback. Not used yet, but is intended
         for Golden Cove CPU-PMU, which can provide both the instruction
         latency and the cache latency information for memory profiling
         events.

         support that could only be enabled via a boot option. The hardware is

      Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "Core scheduler updates:
      
         - Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the
           preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full), to allow
           distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to close to
           PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling behavior via
           a boot time selection.
      
           There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime.
      
           This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of
           static calls).
      
           The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking
           at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c.
      
           ( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical,
             for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the
             preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime
             overhead even with the code patching. )
      
           The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast
           majority of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected.
      
         - Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that
           was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that
           rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after
           the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it
           by chance but many others don't.
      
           In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch
           scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address the
           underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the initial
           fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug.
      
         - Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the
           following consistent set of rbtree APIs:
      
             partial-order; less() based:
               - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree
               - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached
      
             total-order; cmp() based:
               - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree
               - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found
      
               - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry
               - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first()
               - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two
      
         - Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a
           single pass. This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves
           one aspect of the idle sibling scan logic.
      
         - Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU
           utilization metrics from the scheduler
      
         - Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by
           reducing the number of active LB attempts & lengthen the
           load-balancing interval. This improves stress-ng mmapfork
           performance.
      
         - Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can

      Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
       "Highlights from this cycles are things like request recycling and
        task_work optimizations, which net us anywhere from 10-20% of speedups
        on workloads that mostly are inline.
      
        This work was originally done to put io_uring under memcg, which adds
        considerable overhead. But it's a really nice win as well. Also worth
        highlighting is the LOOKUP_CACHED work in the VFS, and using it in
        io_uring. Greatly speeds up the fast path for file opens.
      
        Summary:
      
         - Put io_uring under memcg protection. We accounted just the rings
           themselves under rlimit memlock before, now we account everything.
      
         - Request cache recycling, persistent across invocations (Pavel, me)
      
         - First part of a cleanup/improvement to buffer registration (Bijan)
      
         - SQPOLL fixes (Hao)
      
         - File registration NULL pointer fixup (Dan)
      
         - LOOKUP_CACHED support for io_uring
      
         - Disable /proc/thread-self/ for io_uring, like we do for /proc/self
      
         - Add Pavel to the io_uring MAINTAINERS entry
      
         - Tons of code cleanups and optimizations (Pavel)
      
         - Support for skip entries in file registration (Noah)"

       "There's a lot going on this time, which seems about right for this
        drama-filled year.
      
        Community developers added some code to speed up freezing when
        read-only workloads are still running, refactored the logging code,
        added checks to prevent file extent counter overflow, reduced iolock
        cycling to speed up fsync and gc scans, and started the slow march
        towards supporting filesystem shrinking.
      
        There's a huge refactoring of the internal speculative preallocation
        garbage collection code which fixes a bunch of bugs, makes the gc
        scheduling per-AG and hence multithreaded, and standardizes the retry
        logic when we try to reserve space or quota, can't, and want to
        trigger a gc scan. We also enable multithreaded quotacheck to reduce
        mount times further. This is also preparation for background file gc,
        which may or may not land for 5.13.
      
        We also fixed some deadlocks in the rename code, fixed a quota
        accounting leak when FSSETXATTR fails, restored the behavior that
        write faults to an mmap'd region actually cause a SIGBUS, fixed a bug
        where sgid directory inheritance wasn't quite working properly, and
        fixed a bug where symlinks weren't working properly in ecryptfs. We
        also now advertise the inode btree counters feature that was
        introduced two cycles ago.
      
        Summary:
      
         - Fix an ABBA deadlock when renaming files on overlayfs.
      
         - Make sure that we can't overflow the inode extent counters when
           adding to or removing extents from a file.
      
         - Make directory sgid inheritance work the same way as all the other
           filesystems.
      
         - Don't drain the buffer cache on freeze and ro remount, which should
           reduce the amount of time if read-only workloads are continuing
           during the freeze.
      
         - Fix a bug where symlink size isn't reported to the vfs in ecryptfs.
      
         - Disentangle log cleaning from log covering. This refactoring sets
           us up for future changes to the log, though for now it simply means
           that we can use covering for freezes, and cleaning becomes
           something we only do at unmount.
      
         - Speed up file fsyncs by reducing iolock cycling.
      
         - Fix delalloc blocks leaking when changing the project id fails
           because of input validation errors in FSSETXATTR.
      
         - Fix oversized quota reservation when converting unwritten extents
           during a DAX write.
      
         - Create a transaction allocation helper function to standardize the
           idiom of allocating a transaction, reserving blocks, locking
           inodes, and reserving quota. Replace all the open-coded logic for
           file creation, file ownership changes, and file modifications to
           use them.
      
         - Actually shut down the fs if the incore quota reservations get
           corrupted.
      
         - Fix background block garbage collection scans to not block and to
           actually clean out CoW staging extents properly.
      
         - Run block gc scans when we run low on project quota.
      
         - Use the standardized transaction allocation helpers to make it so
           that ENOSPC and EDQUOT errors during reservation will back out,
           invoke the block gc scanner, and try again. This is preparation for
           introducing background inode garbage collection in the next cycle.
      
         - Combine speculative post-EOF block garbage collection with
           speculative copy on write block garbage collection.
      
         - Enable multithreaded quotacheck.
      
         - Allow sysadmins to tweak the CPU affinities and maximum concurrency
           levels of quotacheck and background blockgc worker pools.
      
         - Expose the inode btree counter feature in the fs geometry ioctl.
      
         - Cleanups of the growfs code in preparation for starting work on
           filesystem shrinking.
      
         - Fix all the bloody gcc warnings that the maintainer knows about. :P
      
         - Fix a RST syntax error.
      
         - Don't trigger bmbt corruption assertions after the fs shuts down.
      
         - Restore behavior of forcing SIGBUS on a shut down filesystem when
           someone triggers a mmap write fault (or really, any buffered
           write)"

       "We've added two major features: 1) compression level and 2)
        checkpoint_merge, in this round.
      
        Compression level expands 'compress_algorithm' mount option to accept
        parameter as format of <algorithm>:<level>, by this way, it gives a
        way to allow user to do more specified config on lz4 and zstd
        compression level, then f2fs compression can provide higher compress
        ratio.
      
        checkpoint_merge creates a kernel daemon and makes it to merge
        concurrent checkpoint requests as much as possible to eliminate
        redundant checkpoint issues. Plus, we can eliminate the sluggish issue
        caused by slow checkpoint operation when the checkpoint is done in a
        process context in a cgroup having low i/o budget and cpu shares.
      
        Enhancements:
         - add compress level for lz4 and zstd in mount option
         - checkpoint_merge mount option
         - deprecate f2fs_trace_io

         - missing ACL update and lock for I_LINKABLE flag

       "This brings updates of space handling, performance improvements or bug
        fixes. The subpage block size and zoned mode features have reached
        state where they're usable but with limitations.
      
        Performance or related:
      
         - do not block on deleted block group mutex in the cleaner, avoids
           some long stalls
      
         - improved flushing: make it work better with ticket space
           reservations and avoid excessive transaction commits in some
           scenarios, slightly improves throughput for random write load
      
         - preemptive background flushing: separate the logic from ticket
           reservations, improve the accounting and decisions when to flush in
           low space conditions
      
         - less lock contention related to running delayed refs, let just one
           thread do the flushing when there are many inside transaction
           commit
      
         - dbench workload improvements: avoid unnecessary work when logging
           inodes, fewer fallbacks to transaction commit and thus less waiting
           for it (+7% throughput, -20% latency)
      
        Core:
      
         - subpage block size
            - currently read-only support
            - refactor and generalize code where sectorsize is assumed to be
              page size, add the subpage handling everywhere
            - the read-write support is on the way, page sizes are still
              limited to 4K or 64K
      
         - zoned mode, first working version but with limitations
            - SMR/ZBC/ZNS friendly allocation mode, utilizing the "no fixed
              location for structures" and chunked allocation
            - superblock as the only fixed data structure needs special
              handling, uses 2 consecutive zones as a ring buffer
            - tree-log support with a dedicated block group to avoid unordered
              writes
            - emulated zones on non-zoned devices
            - not yet working
            - all non-single block group profiles, requires more zone write
              pointer synchronization between the multiple block groups
            - fitrim due to dependency on space cache, can be implemented
      
        Fixes:
      
         - ref-verify: proper tree owner and node level tracking
      
         - fix pinned byte accounting, causing some early ENOSPC now more

        Specifics:

            * Fix max CPU frequency discovery in the intel_pstate driver and
              make janitorial changes in it (Chen Yu, Rafael Wysocki, Nigel
              Christian).

         - Simplify and clean up devfreq somewhat (Lukasz Luba, Yang Li,
           Pierre Kuo).
      
         - Update the generic power domains (genpd) framework:

              Iyer).

           PM-runtime (Bhaskar Chowdhury, Bjorn Helgaas, Rikard Falkeborn,
           Zqiang).

              future family updates easier (Nathan Fontenot, Robert Richter).

       "Here is the "big" set of staging and IIO driver patches for 5.12-rc1.
      
        Nothing really huge in here, the number of staging tree patches has
        gone down for a bit, maybe there's only so much churn to happen in
        here at the moment.
      
        The IIO changes are:
      
         - new drivers
      
         - new DT bindings
      
         - new iio driver features
      
        with full details in the shortlog.
      
        The staging driver patches are just a lot of tiny coding style
        cleanups, along with some semi-larger hikey driver cleanups as those
        are _almost_ good enough to get out of the staging tree, but will
        probably have to wait until 5.13 to have happen.
