2015-09-13perf/core: Drop PERF_EVENT_TXNSukadev Bhattiprolu2-6/+2
We currently use PERF_EVENT_TXN flag to determine if we are in the middle of a transaction. If in a transaction, we defer the schedulability checks from pmu->add() operation to the pmu->commit() operation. Now that we have "transaction types" (PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ) we can use the type to determine if we are in a transaction and drop the PERF_EVENT_TXN flag. When PERF_EVENT_TXN is dropped, the cpuhw->group_flag on some architectures becomes unused, so drop that field as well. This is an extension of the Powerpc patch from Peter Zijlstra to s390, Sparc and x86 architectures.

2015-09-13perf/core: Add a 'flags' parameter to the PMU transactional interfacesSukadev Bhattiprolu2-1/+32
Currently, the PMU interface allows reading only one counter at a time. But some PMUs like the 24x7 counters in Power, support reading several counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction interface to support a "transaction type". The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions, i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch, by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once. Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags' parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.

2015-09-13perf/x86/intel: Fix LBR callstack issue caused by FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMIKan Liang1-3/+2
This patch fixes an issue which introduced by commit 1a78d93750bb5f61abdc59a91fc3bd06a214542a ("perf/x86/intel: Streamline LBR MSR handling in PMI"). The old patch not only avoids writing LBR_SELECT MSR in PMI, but also avoids updating lbr_select variable. So in PMI, FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI bit is always mistakenly set for IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR MSR, which causes superfluous increase/decrease of LBR_TOS when collecting LBR callstack.

2015-09-13perf/x86/intel/bts: Disallow use by unprivileged users on paranoid systemsAlexander Shishkin1-0/+13
BTS leaks kernel addresses even in userspace-only mode due to imprecise IP sampling, so sometimes syscall entry points or page fault handler addresses end up in a userspace trace. Now, intel_bts driver exports trace data zero-copy, it does not scan through it to filter out the kernel addresses and it's would be a O(n) job. To work around this situation, this patch forbids the use of intel_bts driver by unprivileged users on systems with the paranoid setting above the (kernel's) default "1", which still allows kernel profiling. In other words, using intel_bts driver implies kernel tracing, regardless of the "exclude_kernel" attribute setting.

2015-09-13perf/x86/intel/ds: Work around BTS leaking kernel addressesAlexander Shishkin1-6/+34
BTS leaks kernel addresses even in userspace-only mode due to imprecise IP sampling, so sometimes syscall entry points or page fault handler addresses end up in a userspace trace. Since this driver uses a relatively small buffer for BTS records and it has to iterate through them anyway, it can also take on the additional job of filtering out the records that contain kernel addresses when kernel space tracing is not enabled. This patch changes the bts code to skip the offending records from perf output. In order to request the exact amount of space on the ring buffer, we need to do an extra pass through the records to know how many there are of the valid ones, but considering the small size of the buffer, this extra pass adds very little overhead to the nmi handler. This way we won't end up with awkward IP samples with zero IPs in the perf stream.

2015-09-13perf/x86: Improve accuracy of perf/sched clockAdrian Hunter1-13/+11
When TSC is stable perf/sched clock is based on it. However the conversion from cycles to nanoseconds is not as accurate as it could be. Because CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR is 10, the accuracy is +/- 1/2048 The change is to calculate the maximum shift that results in a multiplier that is still a 32-bit number. For example all frequencies over 1 GHz will have a shift of 32, making the accuracy of the conversion +/- 1/(2^33). That is achieved by using the 'clocks_calc_mult_shift()' function.

2015-09-10dma-mapping: consolidate dma_set_maskChristoph Hellwig1-11/+0
Almost everyone implements dma_set_mask the same way, although some time that's hidden in ->set_dma_mask methods. This patch consolidates those into a common implementation that either calls ->set_dma_mask if present or otherwise uses the default implementation. Some architectures used to only call ->set_dma_mask after the initial checks, and those instance have been fixed to do the full work. h8300 implemented dma_set_mask bogusly as a no-ops and has been fixed. Unfortunately some architectures overload unrelated semantics like changing the dma_ops into it so we still need to allow for an architecture override for now.

2015-09-10dma-mapping: consolidate dma_{alloc,free}_{attrs,coherent}Christoph Hellwig1-40/+9
Since 2009 we have a nice asm-generic header implementing lots of DMA API functions for architectures using struct dma_map_ops, but unfortunately it's still missing a lot of APIs that all architectures still have to duplicate. This series consolidates the remaining functions, although we still need arch opt outs for two of them as a few architectures have very non-standard implementations. This patch (of 5): The coherent DMA allocator works the same over all architectures supporting dma_map operations. This patch consolidates them and converges the minor differences: - the debug_dma helpers are now called from all architectures, including those that were previously missing them - dma_alloc_from_coherent and dma_release_from_coherent are now always called from the generic alloc/free routines instead of the ops dma-mapping-common.h always includes dma-coherent.h to get the defintions for them, or the stubs if the architecture doesn't support this feature - checks for ->alloc / ->free presence are removed. There is only one magic instead of dma_map_ops without them (mic_dma_ops) and that one is x86 only anyway. Besides that only x86 needs special treatment to replace a default devices if none is passed and tweak the gfp_flags. An optional arch hook is provided for that.

2015-09-10kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core codeDave Young5-8/+8
There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

The changes outside of the typical drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages(). Summary: - Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will arrive in a later kernel. - Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4. - Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping. - Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as cacheable to improve performance. - Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal 'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (34 commits) libnvdimm, pmem: direct map legacy pmem by default libnvdimm, pmem: 'struct page' for pmem libnvdimm, pfn: 'struct page' provider infrastructure x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB add devm_memremap_pages mm: ZONE_DEVICE for "device memory" mm: move __phys_to_pfn and __pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h dax: drop size parameter to ->direct_access() nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB nvdimm: change to use generic kvfree() pmem, dax: have direct_access use __pmem annotation dax: update I/O path to do proper PMEM flushing pmem: add copy_from_iter_pmem() and clear_pmem() pmem, x86: clean up conditional pmem includes pmem: remove layer when calling arch_has_wmb_pmem() pmem, x86: move x86 PMEM API to new pmem.h header libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option pmem: switch to devm_ allocations devres: add devm_memremap libnvdimm, btt: write and validate parent_uuid ...

Patches are in progress to add the ARM equivalent of NMI, but we still need the IRQ-level fallback for systems where the "NMI" isn't available due to secure firmware denying access to it" * 'nmi' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: ARM: add basic support for on-demand backtrace of other CPUs nmi: x86: convert to generic nmi handler nmi: create generic NMI backtrace implementation

2015-09-05x86/vm86: Block non-root vm86(old) if mmap_min_addr != 0Andy Lutomirski1-0/+27
vm86 exposes an interesting attack surface against the entry code. Since vm86 is mostly useless anyway if mmap_min_addr != 0, just turn it off in that case. There are some reports that vbetool can work despite setting mmap_min_addr to zero. This shouldn't break that use case, as CAP_SYS_RAWIO already overrides mmap_min_addr.

The kernel's NMI watchdog has nothing to do with the watchdog subsystem. Its header declarations should be in linux/nmi.h, not linux/watchdog.h. The code provided two sets of dummy functions if HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not configured, one in the include file and one in kernel/watchdog.c.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki: "From the number of commits perspective, the biggest items are ACPICA and cpufreq changes with the latter taking the lead (over 50 commits). On the cpufreq front, there are many cleanups and minor fixes in the core and governors, driver updates etc. We also have a new cpufreq driver for Mediatek MT8173 chips. ACPICA mostly updates its debug infrastructure and adds a number of fixes and cleanups for a good measure. The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is updated with new DT bindings and support for them among other things. We have a few updates of the generic power domains framework and a reorganization of the ACPI device enumeration code and bus type operations. And a lot of fixes and cleanups all over. Included is one branch from the MFD tree as it contains some PM-related driver core and ACPI PM changes a few other commits are based on. Specifics: - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150818 including method tracing extensions to allow more in-depth AML debugging in the kernel and a number of assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, Markus Elfring). - ACPI sysfs code updates and a documentation update related to AML method tracing (Lv Zheng). - ACPI EC driver fix related to serialized evaluations of _Qxx methods and ACPI tools updates allowing the EC userspace tool to be built from the kernel source (Lv Zheng). - ACPI processor driver updates preparing it for future introduction of CPPC support and ACPI PCC mailbox driver updates (Ashwin Chaugule). - ACPI interrupts enumeration fix for a regression related to the handling of IRQ attribute conflicts between MADT and the ACPI namespace (Jiang Liu). - Fixes related to ACPI device PM (Mika Westerberg, Srinidhi Kasagar). - ACPI device registration code reorganization to separate the sysfs-related code and bus type operations from the rest (Rafael J Wysocki). - Assorted cleanups in the ACPI core (Jarkko Nikula, Mathias Krause, Andy Shevchenko, Rafael J Wysocki, Nicolas Iooss). - ACPI cpufreq driver and ia64 cpufreq driver fixes and cleanups (Pan Xinhui, Rafael J Wysocki). - cpufreq core cleanups on top of the previous changes allowing it to preseve its sysfs directories over system suspend/resume (Viresh Kumar, Rafael J Wysocki, Sebastian Andrzej Siewior). - cpufreq fixes and cleanups related to governors (Viresh Kumar). - cpufreq updates (core and the cpufreq-dt driver) related to the turbo/boost mode support (Viresh Kumar, Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz). - New DT bindings for Operating Performance Points (OPP), support for them in the OPP framework and in the cpufreq-dt driver plus related OPP framework fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar). - cpufreq powernv driver updates (Shilpasri G Bhat). - New cpufreq driver for Mediatek MT8173 (Pi-Cheng Chen). - Assorted cpufreq driver (speedstep-lib, sfi, integrator) cleanups and fixes (Abhilash Jindal, Andrzej Hajda, Cristian Ardelean). - intel_pstate driver updates including Skylake-S support, support for enabling HW P-states per CPU and an additional vendor bypass list entry (Kristen Carlson Accardi, Chen Yu, Ethan Zhao). - cpuidle core fixes related to the handling of coupled idle states (Xunlei Pang). - intel_idle driver updates including Skylake Client support and support for freeze-mode-specific idle states (Len Brown). - Driver core updates related to power management (Andy Shevchenko, Rafael J Wysocki). - Generic power domains framework fixes and cleanups (Jon Hunter, Geert Uytterhoeven, Rajendra Nayak, Ulf Hansson). - Device PM QoS framework update to allow the latency tolerance setting to be exposed to user space via sysfs (Mika Westerberg). - devfreq support for PPMUv2 in Exynos5433 and a fix for an incorrect exynos-ppmu DT binding (Chanwoo Choi, Javier Martinez Canillas). - System sleep support updates (Alan Stern, Len Brown, SungEun Kim). - rockchip-io AVS support updates (Heiko Stuebner). - PM core clocks support fixup (Colin Ian King). - Power capping RAPL driver update including support for Skylake H/S and Broadwell-H (Radivoje Jovanovic, Seiichi Ikarashi). - Generic device properties framework fixes related to the handling of static (driver-provided) property sets (Andy Shevchenko). - turbostat and cpupower updates (Len Brown, Shilpasri G Bhat, Shreyas B Prabhu)" * tag 'pm+acpi-4.3-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (180 commits) cpufreq: speedstep-lib: Use monotonic clock cpufreq: powernv: Increase the verbosity of OCC console messages cpufreq: sfi: use kmemdup rather than duplicating its implementation cpufreq: drop !cpufreq_driver check from cpufreq_parse_governor() cpufreq: rename cpufreq_real_policy as cpufreq_user_policy cpufreq: remove redundant 'policy' field from user_policy cpufreq: remove redundant 'governor' field from user_policy cpufreq: update user_policy.* on success cpufreq: use memcpy() to copy policy cpufreq: remove redundant CPUFREQ_INCOMPATIBLE notifier event cpufreq: mediatek: Add MT8173 cpufreq driver dt-bindings: mediatek: Add MT8173 CPU DVFS clock bindings PM / Domains: Fix typo in description of genpd_dev_pm_detach() PM / Domains: Remove unusable governor dummies PM / Domains: Make pm_genpd_init() available to modules PM / domains: Align column headers and data in pm_genpd_summary output powercap / RAPL: disable the 2nd power limit properly tools: cpupower: Fix error when running cpupower monitor PM / OPP: Drop unlikely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL) PM / OPP: Fix static checker warning (broken 64bit big endian systems) ...
