Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner: "This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache partitioning mechanism. The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is odd as well. We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the per package nature of this mechanism. In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all combinations of the hardware can be utilized. There are two ways of associating a cache partition: - Task A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache partition associated to the group. - CPU All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to which the CPU they are running on is associated with. That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes. The main expected user sare: - Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of the cash w/o disturbing others - Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads. - Latency sensitive enterprise workloads - In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side channel attacks" [ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I had more time. But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is _so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will break ] * 'x86-cache-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (31 commits) x86/intel_rdt: Implement show_options() for resctrlfs x86/intel_rdt: Call intel_rdt_sched_in() with preemption disabled x86/intel_rdt: Update task closid immediately on CPU in rmdir and unmount x86/intel_rdt: Fix setting of closid when adding CPUs to a group x86/intel_rdt: Update percpu closid immeditately on CPUs affected by changee x86/intel_rdt: Reset per cpu closids on unmount x86/intel_rdt: Select KERNFS when enabling INTEL_RDT_A x86/intel_rdt: Prevent deadlock against hotplug lock x86/intel_rdt: Protect info directory from removal x86/intel_rdt: Add info files to Documentation x86/intel_rdt: Export the minimum number of set mask bits in sysfs x86/intel_rdt: Propagate error in rdt_mount() properly x86/intel_rdt: Add a missing #include MAINTAINERS: Add maintainer for Intel RDT resource allocation x86/intel_rdt: Add scheduler hook x86/intel_rdt: Add schemata file x86/intel_rdt: Add tasks files x86/intel_rdt: Add cpus file x86/intel_rdt: Add mkdir to resctrl file system x86/intel_rdt: Add "info" files to resctrl file system ...

Commit 8924feff ("splice: lift pipe_lock out of splice_to_pipe()") caused a regression when there were no more readers left on a pipe that was being spliced into: rather than the expected SIGPIPE and -EPIPE return value, the writer would end up waiting forever for space to free up (which obviously was not going to happen with no readers around).

This reverts commit 16200948. The commit was intended to cover the race condition, but it introduced yet another regression for devices with the implicit feedback, leading to a kernel panic due to NULL-dereference in an irq context. As the race condition that was addressed by the commit is very rare and the regression is much worse, let's revert the commit for rc1, and fix the issue properly in a later patch.

Commit 3322d0d6 ("selinux: keep SELinux in sync with new capability definitions") added a check on the defined capabilities without explicitly including the capability header file which caused problems when building genheaders for users of clang/llvm. Resolve this by using the kernel headers when building genheaders, which is arguably the right thing to do regardless, and explicitly including the kernel's capability.h header file in classmap.h. We also update the mdp build, even though it wasn't causing an error we really should be using the headers from the kernel we are building.

Restructure the timer interrupt function to better cope with missed timer irqs. Optimize the calculation when the next interrupt should happen and skip irqs if they would happen too shortly after exit of the irq function. The update_process_times() call is done anyway at every timer irq, so we can safely drop the prof_counter and prof_multiplier variables from the per_cpu structure.

Given that we have kernels out there with this issue, patch 2/2 also fix sctp_raw_to_bind_addrs. v1 -> v2: Explain why we didn't filter the duplicate addresses when global address list gets updated in patch 2/2 changelog. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Xin Long authored
sctp.local_addr_list is a global address list that is supposed to include all the local addresses. sctp updates this list according to NETDEV_UP/ NETDEV_DOWN notifications. However, if multiple NICs have the same address, the global list would have duplicate addresses. Even if for one NIC, promote secondaries in __inet_del_ifa can also lead to accumulating duplicate addresses. When sctp binds address 'ANY' and creates a connection, it copies all the addresses from global list into asoc's bind addr list, which makes sctp pack the duplicate addresses into INIT/INIT_ACK packets. This patch is to filter the duplicate addresses when copying the addrs from global list in sctp_copy_local_addr_list and unpacking addr_param from cookie in sctp_raw_to_bind_addrs to asoc's bind addr list. Note that we can't filter the duplicate addrs when global address list gets updated, As NETDEV_DOWN event may remove an addr that still exists in another NIC.

Jerome Brunet says: ==================== phy: Fix integration of eee-broken-modes The purpose of this series is to fix the integration of the ethernet phy property "eee-broken-modes" [0] The v3 of this series has been merged, missing a fix (error reported by kbuild robot) available in the v4 [1] More importantly, Florian opposed adding a DT property mapping a device register this directly [2]. The concern was that the property could be abused to implement platform configuration policy. After discussing it, I think we agreed that such information about the HW (defect) should appear in the platform DT. However, the preferred way is to add a boolean property for each EEE broken mode.

The patches regarding eee-broken-modes was merged before all people involved could find an agreement on the best way to move forward. While we agreed on having a DT property to mark particular modes as broken, the value used for eee-broken-modes mapped the phy register in very direct way. Because of this, the concern is that it could be used to implement configuration policies instead of describing a broken HW. In the end, having a boolean property for each mode seems to be preferred over one bit field value mapping the register (too) directly.
