Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann: "This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers. I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users. In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees. [ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ] The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases. After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline gcc support: - unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc. - openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar [ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]" This really says it all: 2498 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 467668 deletions(-) * tag 'arch-removal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: (74 commits) MAINTAINERS: UNICORE32: Change email account staging: iio: remove iio-trig-bfin-timer driver tty: hvc: remove tile driver tty: remove bfin_jtag_comm and hvc_bfin_jtag drivers serial: remove tile uart driver serial: remove m32r_sio driver serial: remove blackfin drivers serial: remove cris/etrax uart drivers usb: Remove Blackfin references in USB support usb: isp1362: remove blackfin arch glue usb: musb: remove blackfin port usb: host: remove tilegx platform glue pwm: remove pwm-bfin driver i2c: remove bfin-twi driver spi: remove blackfin related host drivers watchdog: remove bfin_wdt driver can: remove bfin_can driver mmc: remove bfin_sdh driver input: misc: remove blackfin rotary driver input: keyboard: remove bf54x driver ...

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main kernel side changes were: - Modernize the kprobe and uprobe creation/destruction tooling ABIs: The existing text based APIs (kprobe_events and uprobe_events in tracefs), are naive, limited ABIs in that they require user-space to clean up after themselves, which is both difficult and fragile if the tool is buggy or exits unexpectedly. In other words they are not really suited for modern, robust tooling. So introduce a modern, file descriptor based ABI that does not have these limitations: introduce the 'perf_kprobe' and 'perf_uprobe' PMUs and extend the perf_event_open() syscall to create events with a kprobe/uprobe attached to them. These [k,u]probe are associated with this file descriptor, so they are not available in tracefs. (Song Liu) - Intel Cannon Lake CPU support (Harry Pan) - Intel PT cleanups (Alexander Shishkin) - Improve the performance of pinned/flexible event groups by using RB trees (Alexey Budankov) - Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES which allows the modification of hardware breakpoints, which new ABI variant massively speeds up existing tooling that uses hardware breakpoints to instrument (and debug) memory usage.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in the locking subsystem in this cycle were: - Add the Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model (LKMM) subsystem, which is an an array of tools in tools/memory-model/ that formally describe the Linux memory coherency model (a.k.a. Documentation/memory-barriers.txt), and also produce 'litmus tests' in form of kernel code which can be directly executed and tested. Here's a high level background article about an earlier version of this work on LWN.net: https://lwn.net/Articles/718628/ The design principles: "There is reason to believe that Documentation/memory-barriers.txt could use some help, and a major purpose of this patch is to provide that help in the form of a design-time tool that can produce all valid executions of a small fragment of concurrent Linux-kernel code, which is called a "litmus test". This tool's functionality is roughly similar to a full state-space search. Please note that this is a design-time tool, not useful for regression testing. However, we hope that the underlying Linux-kernel memory model will be incorporated into other tools capable of analyzing large bodies of code for regression-testing purposes." [...] "A second tool is klitmus7, which converts litmus tests to loadable kernel modules for direct testing. As with herd7, the klitmus7 code is freely available from http://diy.inria.fr/sources/index.html (and via "git" at https://github.com/herd/herdtools7)" [...] Credits go to: "This patch was the result of a most excellent collaboration founded by Jade Alglave and also including Alan Stern, Andrea Parri, and Luc Maranget." ... and to the gents listed in the MAINTAINERS entry: LINUX KERNEL MEMORY CONSISTENCY MODEL (LKMM) M: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> M: Andrea Parri <parri.andrea@gmail.com> M: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> M: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> M: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> M: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> M: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> M: Jade Alglave <j.alglave@ucl.ac.uk> M: Luc Maranget <luc.maranget@inria.fr> M: "Paul E.

Two config options in the lock debugging menu that are probably the most frequently used, as far as I am concerned, is the PROVE_LOCKING and LOCK_STAT. From a UI perspective, they should be front and center. So these two options are now moved to the top of the lock debugging menu. The DEBUG_WW_MUTEX_SLOWPATH option is also added to the PROVE_LOCKING umbrella.

There are a couples of lock debugging Kconfig options that depends on the following support options: - TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT - STACKTRACE_SUPPORT - LOCKDEP_SUPPORT That makes those lock debugging options harder to read and understand. So a new LOCK_DEBUGGING_SUPPORT option is added that is equivalent to the above three options together. That makes the Kconfig.debug file more readable.

For a rwsem, locking can either be exclusive or shared. The corresponding exclusive or shared unlock must be used. Otherwise, the protected data structures may get corrupted or the lock may be in an inconsistent state. In order to detect such anomaly, a new configuration option DEBUG_RWSEMS is added which can be enabled to look for such mismatches and print warnings that that happens.

Donald reported that IPv6 route leaking between VRFs is not working. The root cause is the strict argument in the call to rt6_lookup when validating the nexthop spec. ip6_route_check_nh validates the gateway and device (if given) of a route spec. It in turn could call rt6_lookup (e.g., lookup in a given table did not succeed so it falls back to a full lookup) and if so sets the strict argument to 1. That means if the egress device is given, the route lookup needs to return a result with the same device. This strict requirement does not work with VRFs (IPv4 or IPv6) because the oif in the flow struct is overridden with the index of the VRF device to trigger a match on the l3mdev rule and force the lookup to its table. The right long term solution is to add an l3mdev index to the flow struct such that the oif is not overridden. That solution will not backport well, so this patch aims for a simpler solution to relax the strict argument if the route spec device is an l3mdev slave. As done in other places, use the FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF to know that the RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag needs to be removed.
