Commit "kvm: Record the preemption status of vcpus using preempt notifiers" caused a performance regression on s390. It turned out that in the case that if a former sleeping cpu, that was woken up, this cpu is not a yield candidate since it gave up the cpu voluntarily. To retain this candiate its preempted flag is set during wakeup and interrupt delivery time. Significant performance measurement work and code analysis to solve this issue was provided by Mao Chuan Li and his team in Beijing.

We should open NMI window right after an iret, but SVM exits before it. We wanted to single step using the trap flag and then open it. (or we could emulate the iret instead) We don't do it since commit 3842d135 (likely), because the iret exit handler does not request an event, so NMI window remains closed until the next exit. Fix this by making KVM_REQ_EVENT request in the iret handler. Signed-off-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Merge tag 'kvm-s390-20140130' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux into HEAD Two new features are added by this patch set: - The floating interrupt controller (flic) that allows us to inject, clear and inspect non-vcpu local interrupts. This also gives us an opportunity to fix deficiencies in our existing interrupt definitions. - Support for asynchronous page faults via the pfault mechanism. Testing show significant guest performance improvements under host swap.

Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller: "The three major changes in this patchset is a implementation for flexible userspace memory maps, cache-flushing fixes (again), and a long-discussed ABI change to make EWOULDBLOCK the same value as EAGAIN. parisc has been the only platform where we had EWOULDBLOCK != EAGAIN to keep HP-UX compatibility. Since we will probably never implement full HP-UX support, we prefer to drop this compatibility to make it easier for us with Linux userspace programs which mostly never checked for both values. We don't expect major fall-outs because of this change, and if we face some, we will simply rebuild the necessary applications in the debian archives" * 'parisc-3.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: add flexible mmap memory layout support parisc: Make EWOULDBLOCK be equal to EAGAIN on parisc parisc: convert uapi/asm/stat.h to use native types only parisc: wire up sched_setattr and sched_getattr parisc: fix cache-flushing parisc/sti_console: prefer Linux fonts over built-in ROM fonts

HPFS needs to load 4 consecutive 512-byte sectors when accessing the directory nodes or bitmaps. We can't switch to 2048-byte block size because files are allocated in the units of 512-byte sectors. Previously, the driver would allocate a 2048-byte area using kmalloc, copy the data from four buffers to this area and eventually copy them back if they were modified. In the current implementation of the buffer cache, buffers are allocated in the pagecache. That means that 4 consecutive 512-byte buffers are stored in consecutive areas in the kernel address space. So, we don't need to allocate extra memory and copy the content of the buffers there. This patch optimizes the code to avoid copying the buffers. It checks if the four buffers are stored in contiguous memory - if they are not, it falls back to allocating a 2048-byte area and copying data there.

Previously, hpfs scanned all bitmaps each time the user asked for free space using statfs. This patch changes it so that hpfs scans the bitmaps only once, remembes the free space and on next invocation of statfs it returns the value instantly. New versions of wine are hammering on the statfs syscall very heavily, making some games unplayable when they're stored on hpfs, with load times in minutes. This should be backported to the stable kernels because it fixes user-visible problem (excessive level load times in wine).

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson: "Here's a set of patches for (hopefully) -rc1. Some of them are fixes, but a good number of them also do things such as enable new drivers in the defconfigs for platforms that have such devices, increases coverage of the multiplatform defconfig and some DTS changes that plumbs up some of the devices that now have bindings and driver support. The commit dates are recent; we've mostly collected these fixes in the last few days but I also had to rebuild the branch yesterday to sort out some internal conflicts which reset the timestamps.
