      CIFS: Add asynchronous write support through kernel AIO · c610c4b6
      Pavel Shilovsky authored
      This patch adds support to process write calls passed by io_submit()
      asynchronously. It based on the previously introduced async context
      that allows to process i/o responses in a separate thread and
      return the caller immediately for asynchronous calls.
      
      This improves writing performance of single threaded applications
      with increasing of i/o queue depth size.

      CIFS: Add asynchronous context to support kernel AIO · ccf7f408
      Pavel Shilovsky authored
      Currently the code doesn't recognize asynchronous calls passed
      by io_submit() and processes all calls synchronously. This is not
      what kernel AIO expects. This patch introduces a new async context
      that keeps track of all issued i/o requests and moves a response
      collecting procedure to a separate thread. This allows to return
      to a caller immediately for async calls and call iocb->ki_complete()
      once all requests are completed. For sync calls the current thread
      simply waits until all requests are completed.

      cifs: fix IPv6 link local, with scope id, address parsing · 29bb3158
      Daniel N Pettersson authored
      When the IP address is gotten from the UNC, use only the address part
      of the UNC. Else all after the percent sign in an IPv6 link local
      address is interpreted as a scope id. This includes the slash and
      share name. A scope id is expected to be an integer and any trailing
      characters makes the conversion to integer fail.
      Example of mount command that fails:
      mount -i -t cifs //fe80::6a05:caff:fe3e:8ffc%2/test /mnt/t -o sec=none

      cifs: small underflow in cnvrtDosUnixTm() · 564277ec
      Dan Carpenter authored
      January is month 1.  There is no zero-th month.  If someone passes a
      zero month then it means we read from one space before the start of the
      total_days_of_prev_months[] array.
      
      We may as well also be strict about days as well.

      Pull AVR32 removal from Hans-Christian Noren Egtvedt:
       "This will remove support for AVR32 architecture from the kernel and
        clean away the most obvious architecture related parts. Removing dead
        code in drivers is the next step"
      
      Notes from previous discussion about this:
       "The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
        kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
        it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.
      
        Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
        Microchip).
      
        Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
        received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
        4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1.
      
        When building kernel v4.10, this toolchain is no longer able to
        properly link the network stack.
      
        Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32
        on life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives
        joy to AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left
        today, if anybody at all"

      Ferre, and Haavard Skinnemoen.

      ia64: fix module loading for gcc-5.4 · a25fb850
      Sergei Trofimovich authored
      Starting from gcc-5.4+ gcc generates MLX instructions in more cases to
      refer local symbols:
      
          https://gcc.gnu.org/PR60465
      
      That caused ia64 module loader to choke on such instructions:
      
          fuse: invalid slot number 1 for IMM64
      
      The Linux kernel used to handle only case where relocation pointed to
      slot=2 instruction in the bundle.  That limitation was fixed in linux by
      commit 9c184a07 ("[IA64] Fix 2.6 kernel for the new ia64 assembler")
      See
      
          http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1433
      
      This change lifts the slot=2 restriction from the kernel module loader.
      
      Tested on 'fuse' and 'btrfs' kernel modules.

        cleanups.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Update the core device enumeration code to make it more internally

      Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
       "This time the majority of changes go to the cpufreq subsystem (and to
        the intel_pstate driver in particular) and there are some updates in
        the generic power domains framework, cpuidle, tools and a couple of
        other places.
      
        One thing worth mentioning is that the intel_pstate's sysfs interface
        has been reworked to be more consistent with the general expectations
        of the cpufreq core and less confusing, hopefully for the better.
        Also, we have a new cpufreq driver for Tegra186 and new hardware
        support in intel_pstata and the Mediatek cpufreq driver.
      
        Apart from that, the AnalyzeSuspend utility for system suspend
        profiling gets a companion called AnalyzeBoot for the analogous
        profiling of system boot and they both go into one place under
        tools/power/pm-graph/.
      
        The rest is mostly fixes, cleanups and code reorganization.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Rework the intel_pstate driver's sysfs interface to make it more
           straightforward and more intuitive (Rafael Wysocki).
      
         - Make intel_pstate support all processors which advertise HWP
           (hardware-managed P-states) to the kernel in all operation modes
           and make it use the load-based P-state selection algorithm on a
           wider range of systems in the active mode (Rafael Wysocki).
      
         - Add cpufreq driver for Tegra186 (Mikko Perttunen).
      
         - Add support for Gemini Lake SoCs to intel_pstate (David Box).
      
         - Add support for MT8176 and MT817x to the Mediatek cpufreq driver
           and clean up that driver a bit (Daniel Kurtz).
      
         - Clean up intel_pstate and optimize it slightly (Rafael Wysocki).
      
         - Update the schedutil cpufreq governor, mostly to fix a couple of
           issues with it related to specific workloads, and rework its sysfs
           tunable and initialization a bit (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
      
         - Fix minor issues in the imx6q, dbx500 and qoriq cpufreq drivers
           (Christophe Jaillet, Irina Tirdea, Leonard Crestez, Viresh Kumar,
           YuanTian Tang).
      
         - Add file patterns for cpufreq DT bindings to MAINTAINERS (Geert
           Uytterhoeven).
      
         - Add support for "always on" power domains to the genpd (generic
           power domains) framework and clean up that code somewhat (Ulf
           Hansson, Lina Iyer, Viresh Kumar).
      
         - Fix minor issues in the powernv cpuidle driver and clean it up
           (Anton Blanchard, Gautham Shenoy).
      
         - Move the AnalyzeSuspend utility under tools/power/pm-graph/ and add
           an analogous boot-profiling utility called AnalyzeBoot to it (Todd
           Brandt).
      
         - Add rk3328 support to the rockchip-io AVS (Adaptive Voltage
           Scaling) driver (David Wu).
      
         - Fix minor issues in the cpuidle core, the intel_pstate_tracer

       "Nothing major. Two notable fixes are Li's second stab at fixing the
        long-standing race condition in the mount path and suppression of
        spurious warning from cgroup_get(). All other changes are trivial"
