      fuse: add retrieve request · 2d45ba38
      Miklos Szeredi authored 
      Userspace filesystem can request data to be retrieved from the inode's
mapping.  This request is synchronous and the retrieved data is queued
as a new request.  If the write to the fuse device returns an error
then the retrieve request was not completed and a reply will not be
sent.

Only present pages are returned in the retrieve reply.  Retrieving
stops when it finds a non-present page and only data prior to that is
returned.

This request doesn't change the dirty state of pages.

      fuse: add store request · a1d75f25
      Miklos Szeredi authored 
      Userspace filesystem can request data to be stored in the inode's
mapping.  This request is synchronous and has no reply.  If the write
to the fuse device returns an error then the store request was not
fully completed (but may have updated some pages).

If the stored data overflows the current file size, then the size is
extended, similarly to a write(2) on the filesystem.

Pages which have been completely stored are marked uptodate.

      fuse: don't use atomic kmap · 7909b1c6
      Miklos Szeredi authored 
      Don't use atomic kmap for mapping userspace buffers in device
read/write/splice.

This is necessary because the next patch (adding store notify)
requires that caller of fuse_copy_page() may sleep between
invocations.  The simplest way to ensure this is to change the atomic
kmaps to non-atomic ones.

Thankfully architectures where kmap() is not a no-op are going out of
fashion, so we can ignore the (probably negligible) performance impact
of this change.

      ARM: 6205/1: perf: ensure counter delta is treated as unsigned · 446a5a8b
      Will Deacon authored 
      Hardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t
variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure.

The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable
and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits
if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output
such as:

 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20':

 18446744073460670464  cycles             <-- 0xFFFFFFFFF12A6000
        7783773  instructions             #      0.000 IPC
            465  context-switches
            161  page-faults
        1172393  branches

   20.154242147  seconds time elapsed

This patch ensures that the delta value is treated as unsigned so that the
right shift sets the upper bits to zero.
