based frontends. Currently the frontends which implement similar code for sharing big buffers between frontend and backend are para-virtualized DRM and sound drivers. Both define the same way to share grant references of a data buffer with the corresponding backend with little differences. Move shared code into a helper module, so there is a single implementation of the same functionality for all. This patch introduces code which is used by sound and display frontend drivers without functional changes with the intention to remove shared code from the corresponding drivers.

For certain applications it is desirable to rapidly boot a KVM virtual machine. In cases where legacy hardware and software support within the guest is not needed, Qemu should be able to boot directly into the uncompressed Linux kernel binary without the need to run firmware. There already exists an ABI to allow this for Xen PVH guests and the ABI is supported by Linux and FreeBSD: https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/pvh.html This patch enables Qemu to use that same entry point for booting KVM guests.

The start info structure that is defined as part of the x86/HVM direct boot ABI and used for starting Xen PVH guests would be more versatile if it also included a way to pass information about the memory map to the guest. This would allow KVM guests to share the same entry point.

We need to refactor PVH entry code so that support for other hypervisors like Qemu/KVM can be added more easily. The original design for PVH entry in Xen guests relies on being able to obtain the memory map from the hypervisor using a hypercall. When we extend the PVH entry ABI to support other hypervisors like Qemu/KVM, a new mechanism will be added that allows the guest to get the memory map without needing to use hypercalls. For Xen guests, the hypercall approach will still be supported. In preparation for adding support for other hypervisors, we can move the code that uses hypercalls into the Xen specific file. This will allow us to compile kernels in the future without CONFIG_XEN that are still capable of being booted as a Qemu/KVM guest via the PVH entry point.

Once hypervisors other than Xen start using the PVH entry point for starting VMs, we would like the option of being able to compile PVH entry capable kernels without enabling CONFIG_XEN and all the code that comes along with that. To allow that, we are moving the PVH code out of Xen and into files sitting at a higher level in the tree. This patch is not introducing any code or functional changes, just moving files from one location to another.

In order to pave the way for hypervisors other than Xen to use the PVH entry point for VMs, we need to factor the PVH entry code into Xen specific and hypervisor agnostic components. The first step in doing that, is to create a new config option for PVH entry that can be enabled independently from CONFIG_XEN.

The CP rings are accounted differently on the new 57500 chips. There must be enough CP rings for the sum of RX and TX rings on the new chips. The current logic may be over-estimating the RX and TX rings. The output parameter max_cp should be the maximum NQs capped by MSIX vectors available for networking in the context of 57500 chips. The existing code which uses CMPL rings capped by the MSIX vectors works most of the time but is not always correct. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <michael.chan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The new 57500 chips have introduced the NQ structure in addition to the existing CP rings in all chips. We need to introduce a new bnxt_nq_rings_in_use(). On legacy chips, the 2 functions are the same and one will just call the other. On the new chips, they refer to the 2 separate ring structures. The new function is now called to determine the resource (NQ or CP rings) associated with MSIX that are in use. On 57500 chips, the RDMA driver does not use the CP rings so we don't need to do the subtraction adjustment. Fixes: 41e8d798 ("bnxt_en: Modify the ring reservation functions for 57500 series chips.")

The new 57500 chips use 1 NQ per MSIX vector, whereas legacy chips use 1 CP ring per MSIX vector. To better unify this, add a resv_irqs field to struct bnxt_hw_resc.

Recent changes to support the 57500 devices have created this regression. The bnxt_hwrm_queue_qportcfg() call was moved to be called earlier before the RDMA support was determined, causing the CoS queues configuration to be set before knowing whether RDMA was supported or not.

Summary: - Unless and until the core mm handles memory hotplug units smaller than a section (128M), persistent memory namespaces must be padded to section alignment. The libnvdimm core already handled section collision with "System RAM", but some configurations overlap independent "Persistent Memory" ranges within a section, so additional padding injection is added for that case. - The recent reworks of the ARS (address range scrub) state machine to reduce the number of state flags inadvertantly missed a conversion of acpi_nfit_ars_rescan() call sites.

This reverts commit 89c83fb5. This should have been done as part of 2f0799a0 ("mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations"). The movement of the thp allocation policy from alloc_pages_vma() to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() was intended to only set __GFP_THISNODE for mempolicies that are not MPOL_BIND whereas the revert could set this regardless of mempolicy. While the check for MPOL_BIND between alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() and alloc_pages_vma() was racy, that has since been removed since the revert. What is left is the possibility to use __GFP_THISNODE in policy_node() when it is unexpected because the special handling for hugepages in alloc_pages_vma() was removed as part of the consolidation. Secondly, prior to 89c83fb5, alloc_pages_vma() implemented a somewhat different policy for hugepage allocations, which were allocated through alloc_hugepage_vma(). For hugepage allocations, if the allocating process's node is in the set of allowed nodes, allocate with __GFP_THISNODE for that node (for MPOL_PREFERRED, use that node with __GFP_THISNODE instead). This was changed for shmem_alloc_hugepage() to allow fallback to other nodes in 89c83fb5 as it did for new_page() in mm/mempolicy.c which is functionally different behavior and removes the requirement to only allocate hugepages locally. So this commit does a full revert of 89c83fb5 instead of the partial revert that was done in 2f0799a0. The result is the same thp allocation policy for 4.20 that was in 4.19.

This reverts commit 624ca9c3. This commit is completely bogus. The STACR register has two formats, old and new, depending on the version of the IP block used. There's a pair of device-tree properties that can be used to specify the format used: has-inverted-stacr-oc has-new-stacr-staopc What this commit did was to change the bit definition used with the old parts to match the new parts. This of course breaks the driver on all the old ones. Instead, the author should have set the appropriate properties in the device-tree for the variant used on his board.

While skb_push() makes the kernel panic if the skb headroom is less than the unaligned hardware header size, it will proceed normally in case we copy more than that because of alignment, and we'll silently corrupt adjacent slabs. In the case fixed by the previous patch, "ipv6: Check available headroom in ip6_xmit() even without options", we end up in neigh_hh_output() with 14 bytes headroom, 14 bytes hardware header and write 16 bytes, starting 2 bytes before the allocated buffer. Always check we're not writing before skb->head and, if the headroom is not enough, warn and drop the packet. v2: - instead of panicking with BUG_ON(), WARN_ON_ONCE() and drop the packet (Eric Dumazet) - if we avoid the panic, though, we need to explicitly check the headroom before the memcpy(), otherwise we'll have corrupted slabs on a running kernel, after we warn - use __skb_push() instead of skb_push(), as the headroom check is already implemented here explicitly (Eric Dumazet) Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Even if we send an IPv6 packet without options, MAX_HEADER might not be enough to account for the additional headroom required by alignment of hardware headers. On a configuration without HYPERV_NET, WLAN, AX25, and with IPV6_TUNNEL, sending short SCTP packets over IPv4 over L2TP over IPv6, we start with 100 bytes of allocated headroom in sctp_packet_transmit(), end up with 54 bytes after l2tp_xmit_skb(), and 14 bytes in ip6_finish_output2(). Those would be enough to append our 14 bytes header, but we're going to align that to 16 bytes, and write 2 bytes out of the allocated slab in neigh_hh_output().

tcp_tso_should_defer() can return true in three different cases : 1) We are cwnd-limited 2) We are rwnd-limited 3) We are application limited. Neal pointed out that my recent fix went too far, since it assumed that if we were not in 1) case, we must be rwnd-limited Fix this by properly populating the is_cwnd_limited and is_rwnd_limited booleans. After this change, we can finally move the silly check for FIN flag only for the application-limited case. The same move for EOR bit will be handled in net-next, since commit 1c09f7d0 ("tcp: do not try to defer skbs with eor mark (MSG_EOR)") is scheduled for linux-4.21 Tested by running 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_RR -- -r 60000,100 and checking none of them was rwnd_limited in the chrono_stat output from "ss -ti" command.
