This commit adds definition for cpu_on, cpu_off and cpu_suspend commands. These definitions must match the corresponding PSCI definitions in boot monitor. Having those command and corresponding PSCI support in boot monitor allows run time CPU hot plugin.

kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space. To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical addresses. This patch extracts the current transation points into linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions. Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the architecture can override.

On PAE systems (eg, ARM LPAE) the vmcore note may be located above 4GB physical on 32-bit architectures, so we need a wider type than "unsigned long" here. Arrange for paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() to return a phys_addr_t, thereby allowing it to be located above 4GB. This makes no difference for kexec-tools, as they already assume a 64-bit type when reading from this file.

In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only), tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations, placing the flag in ti->status. Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and drop the custom implementations. Additional architectures can opt in by removing their TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user space programs. This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h". The following minor changes are accompanied by this migration: - nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure. - inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

Define an own output routine to replace bare use of printk() function. The output routine is implemented with a macro and a helper function, which are named nilfs_msg() and __nilfs_msg(), respectively. __nilfs_msg() formats a message like "NILFS (<device-name>): <message>", prefixing it with a given log level, and terminates the statement with a newline. The "device-name" is optional to make it available in early stages; it will be omitted if a NULL pointer is passed to super block instance argument. nilfs_msg() wraps __nilfs_msg() and is removed if CONFIG_PRINTK is not set.

Simplify nilfs_error(), an output function used to report critical issues in file system.

Every call site of nilfs_error() is changed to strip __func__ argument except nilfs_bmap_convert_error(); nilfs_bmap_convert_error() directly calls __nilfs_error() because it inherits caller's function name.

A double-bug exists in the bss calculation code, where an overflow can happen in the "last_bss - elf_bss" calculation, but vm_brk internally aligns the argument, underflowing it, wrapping back around safe. We shouldn't depend on these bugs staying in sync, so this cleans up the bss padding handling to avoid the overflow. This moves the bss padzero() before the last_bss > elf_bss case, since the zero-filling of the ELF_PAGE should have nothing to do with the relationship of last_bss and elf_bss: any trailing portion should be zeroed, and a zero size is already handled by padzero(). Then it handles the math on elf_bss vs last_bss correctly. These need to both be ELF_PAGE aligned to get the comparison correct, since that's the expected granularity of the mappings. Since elf_bss already had alignment-based padding happen in padzero(), the "start" of the new vm_brk() should be moved forward as done in the original code. However, since the "end" of the vm_brk() area will already become PAGE_ALIGNed in vm_brk() then last_bss should get aligned here to avoid hiding it as a side-effect. Additionally makes a cosmetic change to the initial last_bss calculation so it's easier to read in comparison to the load_addr calculation above it (i.e. the only difference is p_filesz vs p_memsz).

Signoff was not checked if the filename is '-', indicating reading the patch from stdin. Commands such as the below would not warn about a missing signoff, because the patch filename is '-'. This change allows checkpatch to warn about a missing signoff, even if the input filename is '-', but only if the patch has a commit message. git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl - A more common use of checkpatch with stdin is for piping git diff through checkpatch. The diff output would not contain a commit message, and therefore it would not contain a signoff line. For this common use case, a warning should not be printed about the missing signoff. With this change we will only warn about a missing signoff if the input contains a commit message. git diff | scripts/checkpatch.pl - Before this patch, a workaround for the first command was to refer to stdin by a name other than '-'. The workaround is not an elegant solution, because elsewhere checkpatch uses the fact that filename equals '-', such as in setting '$vname' to 'Your patch' for stdin. The command below would report "/dev/stdin has style problems" instead of "Your patch has style problems." git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl /dev/stdin Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/48be31e414bddc65bccfa6b1322359be9ba032eb.1469670589.git.allenbh@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Allen Hubbe <allenbh@gmail.com> Acked-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Some systems are memory constrained but they need to load very large firmwares. The firmware subsystem allows drivers to request this firmware be loaded from the filesystem, but this requires that the entire firmware be loaded into kernel memory first before it's provided to the driver. This can lead to a situation where we map the firmware twice, once to load the firmware into kernel memory and once to copy the firmware into the final resting place. This creates needless memory pressure and delays loading because we have to copy from kernel memory to somewhere else. Let's add a request_firmware_into_buf() API that allows drivers to request firmware be loaded directly into a pre-allocated buffer. This skips the intermediate step of allocating a buffer in kernel memory to hold the firmware image while it's read from the filesystem. It also requires that drivers know how much memory they'll require before requesting the firmware and negates any benefits of firmware caching because the firmware layer doesn't manage the buffer lifetime. For a 16MB buffer, about half the time is spent performing a memcpy from the buffer to the final resting place. I see loading times go from 0.081171 seconds to 0.047696 seconds after applying this patch. Plus the vmalloc pressure is reduced. This is based on a patch from Vikram Mulukutla on codeaurora.org: https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/la/kernel/msm-3.18/commit/drivers/base/firmware_class.c?h=rel/msm-3.18&id=0a328c5f6cd999f5c591f172216835636f39bcb5 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160607164741.31849-4-stephen.boyd@linaro.orgSigned-off-by: Stephen Boyd <stephen.boyd@linaro.org> Cc: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Vikram Mulukutla <markivx@codeaurora.org> Cc: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> Cc: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Some low memory systems with complex peripherals cannot afford to have the relatively large firmware images taking up valuable memory during suspend and resume. Change the internal implementation of firmware_class to disallow caching based on a configurable option. In the near future, variants of request_firmware will take advantage of this feature.

This design creates needless memory pressure and delays loading because we have to copy from kernel memory to somewhere else. This patch sets adds support to the request firmware API to load the firmware directly into a pre-allocated buffer, skipping the intermediate copying step and alleviating memory pressure during firmware loading. The drawback is that we can't use the firmware caching feature because the memory for the firmware cache is not managed by the firmware layer. This patch (of 3): We use similar structured code to read and write the kmapped firmware pages. The only difference is read copies from the kmap region and write copies to it. Consolidate this into one function to reduce duplication.

The bottom two bits of radix tree entries are reserved for special use by the radix tree code itself. A comment detailing their usage was added by commit 3bcadd6f ("radix-tree: free up the bottom bit of exceptional entries for reuse") This comment states that if the bottom two bits are '11', this means that this is a locked exceptional entry. It turns out that this bit combination was never actually used. Radix tree locking for DAX was indeed implemented, but it actually used the third LSB: /* We use lowest available exceptional entry bit for locking */ #define RADIX_DAX_ENTRY_LOCK (1 << RADIX_TREE_EXCEPTIONAL_SHIFT) This locking code was also made specific to the DAX code instead of being generally implemented in radix-tree.h. So, fix the comment.

The crc32 test function measures the elapsed time in nanoseconds, but uses 'struct timespec' for that. We want to remove timespec from the kernel for y2038 compatibility, and ktime_get_ns() also helps make the code simpler here. It is also slightly better to use monontonic time, as we are only interested in the time difference.

When a large enough area in the iommu bitmap is found but would span a boundary we continue the search starting from the next bit position. For large allocations this can lead to several useless invocations of bitmap_find_next_zero_area() and iommu_is_span_boundary(). Continue the search from the start of the next segment (which is the next bit position such that we'll not cross the same segment boundary again).
