Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for v4.5. Notably there are big refactorings mostly by myself, aimed at getting the gpio_chip into a shape that makes me believe I can proceed to preserve state for a proper userspace ABI (character device) that has already been proposed once, but resulted in the feedback that I need to go back and restructure stuff. So I've been restructuring stuff. On the way I ran into brokenness (return code from the get_value() callback) and had to fix it. Also, refactored generic GPIO to be simpler. Some of that is still waiting to trickle down from the subsystems all over the kernel that provide random gpio_chips, I've touched every single GPIO driver in the kernel now, oh man I didn't know I was responsible for so much... Apart from that we're churning along as usual. I took some effort to test and retest so it should merge nicely and we shook out a couple of bugs in -next. Infrastructural changes: - In struct gpio_chip, rename the .dev node to .parent to better reflect the fact that this is not the GPIO struct device abstraction. We will add that soon so this would be totallt confusing. - It was noted that the driver .get_value() callbacks was sometimes reporting negative -ERR values to the gpiolib core, expecting them to be propagated to consumer gpiod_get_value() and gpio_get_value() calls. This was not happening, so as there was a mess of drivers returning negative errors and some returning "anything else than zero" to indicate that a line was active. As some would have bit 31 set to indicate "line active" it clashed with negative error codes. This is fixed by the largeish series clamping values in all drivers with !!value to [0,1] and then augmenting the code to propagate error codes to consumers. (Includes some ACKed patches in other subsystems.) - Add a void *data pointer to struct gpio_chip. The container_of() design pattern is indeed very nice, but we want to reform the struct gpio_chip to be a non-volative, stateless business, and keep states internal to the gpiolib to be able to hold on to the state when adding a proper userspace ABI (character device) further down the road. To achieve this, drivers need a handle at the internal state that is not dependent on their struct gpio_chip() so we add gpiochip_add_data() and gpiochip_get_data() following the pattern of many other subsystems. All the "use gpiochip data pointer" patches transforms drivers to this scheme. - The Generic GPIO chip header has been merged into the general <linux/gpio/driver.h> header, and the custom header for that removed. Instead of having a separate mm_gpio_chip struct for these generic drivers, merge that into struct gpio_chip, simplifying the code and removing the need for separate and confusing includes. Misc improvements: - Stabilize the way GPIOs are looked up from the ACPI legacy specification. - Incremental driver features for PXA, PCA953X, Lantiq (patches from the OpenWRT community), RCAR, Zynq, PL061, 104-idi-48 New drivers: - Add a GPIO chip to the ALSA SoC AC97 driver. - Add a new Broadcom NSP SoC driver (this lands in the pinctrl dir, but the branch is merged here too to account for infrastructural changes). - The sx150x driver now supports the sx1502" * tag 'gpio-v4.5-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: (220 commits) gpio: generic: make bgpio_pdata always visible gpiolib: fix chip order in gpio list gpio: mpc8xxx: Do not use gpiochip_get_data() in mpc8xxx_gpio_save_regs() gpio: mm-lantiq: Do not use gpiochip_get_data() in ltq_mm_save_regs() gpio: brcmstb: Allow building driver for BMIPS_GENERIC gpio: brcmstb: Set endian flags for big-endian MIPS gpio: moxart: fix build regression gpio: xilinx: Do not use gpiochip_get_data() in xgpio_save_regs() leds: pca9532: use gpiochip data pointer leds: tca6507: use gpiochip data pointer hid: cp2112: use gpiochip data pointer bcma: gpio: use gpiochip data pointer avr32: gpio: use gpiochip data pointer video: fbdev: via: use gpiochip data pointer gpio: pch: Optimize pch_gpio_get() Revert "pinctrl: lantiq: Implement gpio_chip.to_irq" pinctrl: nsp-gpio: use gpiochip data pointer pinctrl: vt8500-wmt: use gpiochip data pointer pinctrl: exynos5440: use gpiochip data pointer pinctrl: at91-pio4: use gpiochip data pointer ...

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai: "We've had quite busy weeks in this cycle. Looking at ALSA core, the significant changes are a few fixes wrt timer and sequencer ioctls that have been revealed by fuzzer recently. Other than that, ASoC core got a few updates about DAI link handling, but these are rather straightforward refactoring. In drivers scene, ASoC received quite lots of new drivers in addition to bunch of updates for still ongoing Intel Skylake support and topology API. HD-audio gained a new HDMI/DP hotplug notification via component. FireWire got a pile of code refactoring/updates with SCS.1x driver integration. More highlights are shown below. [ NOTE: this contains also many commits for DRM. This is due to the pull of drm stable branch into sound tree, as the base of i915 audio component work for HD-audio. The highlights below don't contain these DRM changes, as these are supposed to be pulled via drm tree in anyway sooner or later. ] Core: - Handful fixes to harden ALSA timer and sequencer ioctls against races reported by syzkaller fuzzer - Irq description string can be unique to each card; only for HD-audio for now ASoC: - Conversion of the array of DAI links to a list for supporting dynamically adding and removing DAI links - Topology API enhancements to make everything more component based and being able to specify PCM links via topology - Some more fixes for the topology code, though it is still not final and ready for enabling in production; we really need to get to the point where that can be done - A pile of changes for Intel SkyLake drivers which hopefully deliver some useful initial functionality for systems with this chipset, though there is more work still to come - Lots of new features and cleanups for the Renesas drivers - ANC support for WM5110 - New drivers: Imagination Technologies IPs, Atmel class D speaker, Cirrus CS47L24 and WM1831, Dialog DA7128, Realtek RT5659 and RT56156, Rockchip RK3036, TI PC3168A, and AMD ACP - Rename PCM1792a driver to be generic pcm179x HD-Audio: - Use audio component for i915 HDMI/DP hotplug handling - On-demand binding with i915 driver - bdl_pos_adj parameter adjustment for Baytrail controllers - Enable power_save_node for CX20722; this shouldn't lead to regression, hopefully - Kabylake HDMI/DP codec support - Quirks for Lenovo E50-80, Dell Latitude E-series, and other Dell machines - A few code refactoring FireWire: - Lots of code cleanup and refactoring - Integrate the support of SCS.1x devices into snd-oxfw driver; snd-scs1x driver is obsoleted USB-audio: - Fix possible NULL dereference at disconnection - A regression fix for Native Instruments devices Misc: - A few code cleanups of fm801 driver" * tag 'sound-4.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound: (722 commits) ALSA: timer: Code cleanup ALSA: timer: Harden slave timer list handling ALSA: hda - Add fixup for Dell Latitidue E6540 ALSA: timer: Fix race among timer ioctls ALSA: hda - add codec support for Kabylake display audio codec ALSA: timer: Fix double unlink of active_list ALSA: usb-audio: Fix mixer ctl regression of Native Instrument devices ALSA: hda - fix the headset mic detection problem for a Dell laptop ALSA: hda - Fix white noise on Dell Latitude E5550 ALSA: hda_intel: add card number to irq description ALSA: seq: Fix race at timer setup and close ALSA: seq: Fix missing NULL check at remove_events ioctl ALSA: usb-audio: Avoid calling usb_autopm_put_interface() at disconnect ASoC: hdac_hdmi: remove unused hdac_hdmi_query_pin_connlist ASoC: AMD: Add missing include file ALSA: hda - Fixup inverted internal mic for Lenovo E50-80 ALSA: usb: Add native DSD support for Oppo HA-1 ASoC: Make aux_dev more like a generic component ASoC: bcm2835: cleanup includes by ordering them alphabetically ASoC: AMD: Manage ACP 2.x SRAM banks power ...

special_hex_number() is a helper to print a fixed size type in a hex format with '0x' prefix, zero padding, and small letters. In the module we have already several copies of such code. Consolidate them under special_hex_number() helper. There are couple of differences though. It seems nobody cared about the output in case of CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n, when printing symbol address, because the asked field width is not enough to care last 2 characters in the string represantation of the pointer. Fixed here. The %pNF specifier used to be allowed with a specific field width, though there is neither any user of it nor mention the possibility in the documentation.

Currently, pr_debug and pr_devel will not elide function call arguments appearing in calls to the no_printk for these macros. This is because all side effects must be honored before proceeding to the 0-value assignment in no_printk. The behavior is contrary to documentation found in the CodingStyle and the header file where these functions are declared. This patch corrects that behavior by shunting out the call to no_printk completely. The format string is still checked by gcc for correctness, but no code seems to be emitted in common cases.

kasprintf relies on being able to replay the formatting and getting the same result (in particular, the same length). This will almost always work, but it is possible that the object pointed to by a %s or %p argument changed under us (so we might get truncated output).

The field width is overloaded to pass some extra information for some %p extensions (e.g. #bits for %pb). But we might silently truncate the passed value when we stash it in struct printf_spec (see e.g. "lib/vsprintf.c: expand field_width to 24 bits"). Hopefully 23 value bits should now be enough for everybody, but if not, let's make some noise. Do the same for the precision. In both cases, clamping seems more sensible than truncating. While, according to POSIX, "A negative precision is taken as if the precision were omitted.", the kernel's printf has always treated that case as if the precision was 0, so we use that as lower bound. For the field width, the smallest representable value is actually -(1<<23), but a negative field width means 'set the LEFT flag and use the absolute value', so we want the absolute value to fit.

One consequence of the reorganization of struct printf_spec to make field_width 24 bits was that number() gained about 180 bytes. Since spec is never passed to other functions, we can help gcc make number() lose most of that extra weight by using local variables for the field width and precision.

Maurizio Lombardi reported a problem [1] with the %pb extension: It doesn't work for sufficiently large bitmaps, since the size is stashed in the field_width field of the struct printf_spec, which is currently an s16. Concretely, this manifested itself in /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/map being empty, since the bitmap printer got a size of 0, which is the 16 bit truncation of the actual bitmap size. We do want to keep struct printf_spec at 8 bytes so that it can cheaply be passed by value. The qualifier field is only used for internal bookkeeping in format_decode, so we might as well use a local variable for that. This gives us an additional 8 bits, which we can then use for the field width. To stay in 8 bytes, we need to do a little rearranging and make the type member a bitfield as well. For consistency, change all the members to bit fields. gcc doesn't generate much worse code with these changes (in fact, bloat-o-meter says we save 300 bytes - which I think is a little surprising). I didn't find a BUILD_BUG/compiletime_assertion/... which would work outside function context, so for now I just open-coded it.

If the string corresponding to a %s specifier can change under us, we might end up copying a \0 byte to the output buffer. There might be callers who expect the output buffer to contain a genuine C string whose length is exactly the snprintf return value (assuming truncation hasn't happened or has been checked for). We can avoid this by only passing over the source string once, stopping the first time we meet a nul byte (or when we reach the given precision), and then letting widen_string() handle left/right space padding. As a small bonus, this code reuse also makes the generated code slightly smaller.

Pull out the logic in dentry_name() which handles field width space padding, in preparation for reusing it from string().

@console_may_schedule tracks whether console_sem was acquired through lock or trylock. If the former, we're inside a sleepable context and console_conditional_schedule() performs cond_resched(). This allows console drivers which use console_lock for synchronization to yield while performing time-consuming operations such as scrolling. However, the actual console outputting is performed while holding irq-safe logbuf_lock, so console_unlock() clears @console_may_schedule before starting outputting lines. Also, only a few drivers call console_conditional_schedule() to begin with. This means that when a lot of lines need to be output by console_unlock(), for example on a console registration, the task doing console_unlock() may not yield for a long time on a non-preemptible kernel. If this happens with a slow console devices, for example a serial console, the outputting task may occupy the cpu for a very long time. Long enough to trigger softlockup and/or RCU stall warnings, which in turn pile more messages, sometimes enough to trigger the next cycle of warnings incapacitating the system. Fix it by making console_unlock() insert cond_resched() between lines if @console_may_schedule.

Boot consoles are typically replaced by proper consoles during the boot process. This can be problematic if the boot console data is part of the init section that is reclaimed late during boot. If the proper console does not register before this point in time, the boot console will need to be removed (so that the freed memory is not accessed), leaving the system without output for some time. There are various reasons why the proper console may not register early enough, such as deferred probe or the driver being a loadable module. If that happens, there is some amount of time where no console messages are visible to the user, which in turn can mean that they won't see crashes or other potentially useful information. To avoid this situation, only remove the boot console when it resides in the init section. Code exists to replace the boot console by the proper console when it is registered, keeping a seamless transition between the boot and proper consoles.

As illustrated by commit a3afe70b ("[S390] latencytop s390 support."), HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT is defined by an architecture to advertise an implementation of save_stack_trace_tsk. However, as of 9212ddb5 ("stacktrace: provide save_stack_trace_tsk() weak alias") a dummy implementation is provided if STACKTRACE=y. Given that LATENCYTOP already depends on STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and selects STACKTRACE, we can remove HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT altogether.

New_valid_dev() always returns true, so that's unnecessary to perform new_valid_dev() checks in some filesystems.

Rewrite abs() so that its return type does not depend on the architecture and no unexpected type conversion happen inside of it. The only conversion is from unsigned to signed type. char is left as a return type but treated as a signed type regradless of it's actual signedness. With the old version, int arguments were promoted to long and depending on architecture a long argument might result in s64 or long return type (which may or may not be the same). This came after some back and forth with Nicolas. The current macro has different return type (for the same input type) depending on architecture which might be midly iritating. An alternative version would promote to int like so: #define abs(x) __abs_choose_expr(x, long long, \ __abs_choose_expr(x, long, \ __builtin_choose_expr( \ sizeof(x) <= sizeof(int), \ ({ int __x = (x); __x<0?-__x:__x; }), \ ((void)0)))) I have no preference but imagine Linus might. :] Nicolas argument against is that promoting to int causes iconsistent behaviour: int main(void) { unsigned short a = 0, b = 1, c = a - b; unsigned short d = abs(a - b); unsigned short e = abs(c); printf("%u %u\n", d, e); // prints: 1 65535 } Then again, no sane person expects consistent behaviour from C integer arithmetic. ;) Note: __builtin_types_compatible_p(unsigned char, char) is always false, and __builtin_types_compatible_p(signed char, char) is also always false.

PA-RISC doesn't have atomic instructions to modify page table entries, so it takes spinlock in the TLB handler and modifies the page table entry non-atomically. If you modify the page table entry without the spinlock, you may race with TLB handler on another CPU and your modification may be lost. Protect against that with usage of purge_tlb_start() and purge_tlb_end() which handles the TLB spinlock. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.4

The bulk of the changes are to clk controller drivers, though some improvements to the core and some re-usable blocks/templates also received some love. In this past cycle the clk maintainers developed a good workflow for handling the common case of patch submissions containing a new drivers, new shared Device Tree header and a new Device Tree binding description. This requires coordination with the Device Tree maintainers and with the architecture maintainers (typically the arm-soc tree in our case). This explains the increase in changes to include/dt-bindings/... and to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/... coming from the clk tree.
