The list_lru structure is essentially just a pointer to a table of
per-node LRU lists. Even if CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is defined, the list
field is just used for LRU list registration and shrinker_id is set at
initialization. Those fields won't need to be touched that often.
So there is no point to make the list_lru structures to sit in their own
cachelines.

The nr_dentry_unused per-cpu counter tracks dentries in both the LRU
lists and the shrink lists where the DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit is set.
The shrink_dcache_sb() function moves dentries from the LRU list to a
shrink list and subtracts the dentry count from nr_dentry_unused. This
is incorrect as the nr_dentry_unused count will also be decremented in
shrink_dentry_list() via d_shrink_del().
To fix this double decrement, the decrement in the shrink_dcache_sb()
function is taken out.

After a timeout event caused by for example a broadcast storm, when
the MAC and PHY are reset, the BQL TX queue needs to be reset as
well. Otherwise, the device will exhibit severe performance issues
even after the storm has ended.

With the following commit:
73d5e2b47264 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
... the hotplug code attempted to detect when SMT was disabled by BIOS,
in which case it reported SMT as permanently disabled. However, that
code broke a virt hotplug scenario, where the guest is booted with only
primary CPU threads, and a sibling is brought online later.
The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to reliably
distinguish between the HW "SMT disabled by BIOS" case and the virt
"sibling not yet brought online" case. So the above-mentioned commit
was a bit misguided, as it permanently disabled SMT for both cases,
preventing future virt sibling hotplugs.
Going back and reviewing the original problems which were attempted to
be solved by that commit, when SMT was disabled in BIOS:
1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control showed "on" instead of
"notsupported"; and
2) vmx_vm_init() was incorrectly showing the L1TF_MSG_SMT warning.
I'd propose that we instead consider #1 above to not actually be a
problem. Because, at least in the virt case, it's possible that SMT
wasn't disabled by BIOS and a sibling thread could be brought online
later. So it makes sense to just always default the smt control to "on"
to allow for that possibility (assuming cpuid indicates that the CPU
supports SMT).
The real problem is #2, which has a simple fix: change vmx_vm_init() to
query the actual current SMT state -- i.e., whether any siblings are
currently online -- instead of looking at the SMT "control" sysfs value.
So fix it by:
a) reverting the original "fix" and its followup fix:
73d5e2b47264 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
bc2d8d262cba ("cpu/hotplug: Fix SMT supported evaluation")
and
b) changing vmx_vm_init() to query the actual current SMT state --
instead of the sysfs control value -- to determine whether the L1TF
warning is needed. This also requires the 'sched_smt_present'
variable to exported, instead of 'cpu_smt_control'.

Johannes Berg says:
====================
various compat ioctl fixes
Back a long time ago, I already fixed a few of these by passing
the size of the struct ifreq to do_sock_ioctl(). However, Robert
found more cases, and now it won't be as simple because we'd have
to pass that down all the way to e.g. bond_do_ioctl() which isn't
really feasible.
Therefore, restore the old code.
While looking at why SIOCGIFNAME was broken, I realized that Al
had removed that case - which had been handled in an explicit
separate function - as well, and looking through his work at the
time I saw that bond ioctls were also affected by the erroneous
removal.
I've restored SIOCGIFNAME and bond ioctls by going through the
(now renamed) dev_ifsioc() instead of reintroducing their own
helper functions, which I hope is correct but have only tested
with SIOCGIFNAME.

As reported by Robert O'Callahan in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202273
reverting the previous changes in this area broke
the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl in compat again (I'd previously
fixed it after his previous report of breakage in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199469).
This is obviously because I fixed SIOCGIFNAME more or
less by accident.
Fix it explicitly now by making it pass through the
restored compat translation code.

This reverts commit bf4405737f9f ("kill dev_ifsioc()").
This wasn't really unused as implied by the original commit,
it still handles the copy to/from user differently, and the
commit thus caused issues such as
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199469
and
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202273
However, deviating from a strict revert, rename dev_ifsioc()
to compat_ifreq_ioctl() to be clearer as to its purpose and
add a comment.

amdgpu only uses shared-fences internally, but dmabuf importers rely on
implicit write hazard tracking via the reservation_object.fence_excl.
For example, the importer use the write hazard for timing a page flip to
only occur after the exporter has finished flushing its write into the
surface. As such, on exporting a dmabuf, we must either flush all
outstanding fences (for we do not know which are writes and should have
been exclusive) or alternatively create a new exclusive fence that is
the composite of all the existing shared fences, and so will only be
signaled when all earlier fences are signaled (ensuring that we can not
be signaled before the completion of any earlier write).
v2: reservation_object is already locked by amdgpu_bo_reserve()
v3: Replace looping with get_fences_rcu and special case the promotion
of a single shared fence directly to an exclusive fence, bypassing the
fence array.
v4: Drop the fence array ref after assigning to reservation_object

Handling short packets (length < max packet size) in the Inventra DMA
engine in the MUSB driver causes the MUSB DMA controller to hang. An
example of a problem that is caused by this problem is when streaming
video out of a UVC gadget, only the first video frame is transferred.
For short packets (mode-0 or mode-1 DMA), MUSB_TXCSR_TXPKTRDY must be
set manually by the driver. This was previously done in musb_g_tx
(musb_gadget.c), but incorrectly (all csr flags were cleared, and only
MUSB_TXCSR_MODE and MUSB_TXCSR_TXPKTRDY were set). Fixing that problem
allows some requests to be transferred correctly, but multiple requests
were often put together in one USB packet, and caused problems if the
packet size was not a multiple of 4. Instead, set MUSB_TXCSR_TXPKTRDY
in dma_controller_irq (musbhsdma.c), just like host mode transfers.
This topic was originally tackled by Nicolas Boichat [0] [1] and is
discussed further at [2] as part of his GSoC project [3].

VOP is broken in mainline since commit 1ce9e6055fa0a9043 ("virtio_ring:
introduce packed ring support"); attempting to use the virtqueues leads
to various kernel crashes. I'm testing it with my not-yet-merged
loopback patches, but even the in-tree MIC hardware cannot work.
The problem is not in the referenced commit per se, but is due to the
following hack in vop_find_vq() which depends on the layout of private
structures in other source files, which that commit happened to change:
/*

We currently adhere to the reserved devices limit when creating new
binderfs devices in binderfs instances not located in the inital ipc
namespace. But it is still possible to rob the host instances of their 4
reserved devices by creating the maximum allowed number of devices in a
single binderfs instance located in a non-initial ipc namespace and then
mounting 4 separate binderfs instances in non-initial ipc namespaces. That
happens because the limit is currently not respected for the creation of
the initial binder-control device node. Block this nonsense by performing
the same check in binderfs_binder_ctl_create() that we perform in
binderfs_binder_device_create().

- binderfs mounting works
- binder device allocation works
- performing a binder ioctl() request through a binderfs device works
- binder device removal works
- binder-control removal fails
- binderfs unmounting works
The tests are performed both privileged and unprivileged. The latter
verifies that binderfs behaves correctly in user namespaces.

show_ldttss() shifts desc.base2 by 24 bit, but base2 is 8 bits of a
bitfield in a u16.
Due to the really great idea of integer promotion in C99 base2 is promoted
to an int, because that's the standard defined behaviour when all values
which can be represented by base2 fit into an int.
Now if bit 7 is set in desc.base2 the result of the shift left by 24 makes
the resulting integer negative and the following conversion to unsigned
long legitmately sign extends first causing the upper bits 32 bits to be
set in the result.
Fix this by casting desc.base2 to unsigned long before the shift.

to long mode
In some old AMD KVM implementation, guest's EFER.LME bit is cleared by KVM
when the hypervsior detects that the guest sets CR0.PG to 0. This causes
the guest OS to reboot when it tries to return from 32-bit trampoline code
because the CPU is in incorrect state: CR4.PAE=1, CR0.PG=1, CS.L=1, but
EFER.LME=0. As a precaution, set EFER.LME=1 as part of long mode
activation procedure. This extra step won't cause any harm when Linux is
booted on a bare-metal machine.

When an error happens, debugfs should return an error pointer value, not
NULL. This will prevent the totally theoretical error where a debugfs
call fails due to lack of memory, returning NULL, and that dentry value
is then passed to another debugfs call, which would end up succeeding,
creating a file at the root of the debugfs tree, but would then be
impossible to remove (because you can not remove the directory NULL).
So, to make everyone happy, always return errors, this makes the users
of debugfs much simpler (they do not have to ever check the return
value), and everyone can rest easy.
