 "The main changes are:

   - 'qspinlock' support, enabled on x86: queued spinlocks - these are
     now the spinlock variant used by x86 as they outperform ticket
     spinlocks in every category.  (Waiman Long)

   - 'pvqspinlock' support on x86: paravirtualized variant of queued
     spinlocks.  (Waiman Long, Peter Zijlstra)

   - 'qrwlock' support, enabled on x86: queued rwlocks.  Similar to
     queued spinlocks, they are now the variant used by x86:

       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y

   - various lockdep fixlets

   - various locking primitives cleanups, further WRITE_ONCE()
     propagation"

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Continued initialization/Kconfig updates: hide most Kconfig options
   from unsuspecting users.

   There's now a single high level configuration option:

        *
        * RCU Subsystem
        *
        Make expert-level adjustments to RCU configuration (RCU_EXPERT) [N/y/?] (NEW)

   Which if answered in the negative, leaves us with a single
   interactive configuration option:

        Offload RCU callback processing from boot-selected CPUs (RCU_NOCB_CPU) [N/y/?] (NEW)

   All the rest of the RCU options are configured automatically.  Later
   on we'll remove this single leftover configuration option as well.

 - Remove all uses of RCU-protected array indexes: replace the
   rcu_[access|dereference]_index_check() APIs with READ_ONCE() and
   rcu_lockdep_assert()

 - RCU CPU-hotplug cleanups

 - Updates to Tiny RCU: a race fix and further code shrinkage.

 - RCU torture-testing updates: fixes, speedups, cleanups and
   documentation updates.

 - Miscellaneous fixes

 - Documentation updates

      Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "In this pile: pathname resolution rewrite.

   - recursion in link_path_walk() is gone.

   - nesting limits on symlinks are gone (the only limit remaining is
     that the total amount of symlinks is no more than 40, no matter how
     nested).

   - "fast" (inline) symlinks are handled without leaving rcuwalk mode.

   - stack footprint (independent of the nesting) is below kilobyte now,
     about on par with what it used to be with one level of nested
     symlinks and ~2.8 times lower than it used to be in the worst case.

   - struct nameidata is entirely private to fs/namei.c now (not even
     opaque pointers are being passed around).

   - ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventions had been
     changed; all in-tree filesystems converted, out-of-tree should be
     able to follow reasonably easily.

     For out-of-tree conversions, see Documentation/filesystems/porting
     for details (and in-tree filesystems for examples of conversion).

  That has sat in -next since mid-May, seems to survive all testing
  without regressions and merges clean with v4.1"

Worse yet, reading the error message (the filter again) it says that
there was no error, when there clearly was. The issue is that the
code that checks the input does not check for balanced ops. That is,
having an op between a closed parenthesis and the next token.

This would only cause a warning, and fail out before doing any real
harm, but it should still not caues a warning, and the error reported
should work:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 # echo "((dev==1)blocks==2)" > events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
 # cat events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter
((dev==1)blocks==2)
^
parse_error: Meaningless filter expression

And give no kernel warning.

      crypto: caam - fix RNG buffer cache alignment · 412c98c1
      Steve Cornelius authored 
      The hwrng output buffers (2) are cast inside of a a struct (caam_rng_ctx)
allocated in one DMA-tagged region. While the kernel's heap allocator
should place the overall struct on a cacheline aligned boundary, the 2
buffers contained within may not necessarily align. Consenquently, the ends
of unaligned buffers may not fully flush, and if so, stale data will be left
behind, resulting in small repeating patterns.

This fix aligns the buffers inside the struct.

Note that not all of the data inside caam_rng_ctx necessarily needs to be
DMA-tagged, only the buffers themselves require this. However, a fix would
incur the expense of error-handling bloat in the case of allocation failure.

      crypto: caam - improve initalization for context state saves · 6fd4b156
      Steve Cornelius authored 
      Multiple function in asynchronous hashing use a saved-state block,
a.k.a. struct caam_hash_state, which holds a stash of information
between requests (init/update/final). Certain values in this state
block are loaded for processing using an inline-if, and when this
is done, the potential for uninitialized data can pose conflicts.
Therefore, this patch improves initialization of state data to
prevent false assignments using uninitialized data in the state block.

This patch addresses the following traceback, originating in
ahash_final_ctx(), although a problem like this could certainly
exhibit other symptoms:

      KVM: x86: fix lapic.timer_mode on restore · b6ac0695
      Radim Krčmář authored 
      lapic.timer_mode was not properly initialized after migration, which
broke few useful things, like login, by making every sleep eternal.

Fix this by calling apic_update_lvtt in kvm_apic_post_state_restore.

There are other slowpaths that update lvtt, so this patch makes sure
something similar doesn't happen again by calling apic_update_lvtt
after every modification.
