Dynamic mechanism requires BB/RF working to adjust
hardware settings. But PS state periodically turns
off BB/RF, could lead to wrong setting.
So leave PS state before DM to make sure it works.
And then check if we can enter PS state again.

The original design of LPS enter/leave routines allows
to control the LPS state by each interface. But the
hardware cannot actually handle it that way. This means
the hardware can only enter LPS once with an associated
port, so there is no need to keep tracking the state of
each vif.
Hence the logic of enter/leave LPS state can be simple,
just to check the state of the device's flag. And for
leaving LPS state, it will get the same port id to send
to inform the hardware.

Remove PS related *_irqsafe functions to avoid entering/leaving PS
under interrupt context. Instead, make PS decision in watch_dog.
This could simplify the logic and make the code look clean.
But it could have a little side-effect that if the driver is having
heavy traffic before the every-2-second watch_dog detect the traffic
and decide to leave PS, the thoughput will be lower. Once traffic is
detected by watch_dog and left PS state, the throughput will resume
to the peak the hardware ought to have again.

If the driver doesn't reset the host's and device's indexes
in a single write, the indexes will become different in a
short period. And it will confuse the DMA engine, make it
start to process non-existed entries.
Better to Write-1-to-reset the indexes, for the DMA engine
to know that this is a reset of the H2C queue, not a kick
off.

Rather than kmalloc/kzalloc + memcpy, which the programmer needs to

brcmfmac assumed the wifi device always remains powered on and thus
hardcoded the MMC_PM_KEEP_POWER flag expecting the wifi device to
remain on even during suspend/resume cycles.
This is not always the case, some appliances cut power to everything
connected via SDIO for efficiency reasons and this leads to wifi not
being usable after coming out of suspend because the device was not
correctly reinitialized.
So we check for the keep_power capability and if it's not present then
we remove the device and probe it again during resume to mirror what's
happening in hardware and ensure correct reinitialization in the case
when MMC_PM_KEEP_POWER is not supported.

Merge active entropy generation updates.
This is admittedly partly "for discussion". We need to have a way
forward for the boot time deadlocks where user space ends up waiting for
more entropy, but no entropy is forthcoming because the system is
entirely idle just waiting for something to happen.
While this was triggered by what is arguably a user space bug with
GDM/gnome-session asking for secure randomness during early boot, when
they didn't even need any such truly secure thing, the issue ends up
being that our "getrandom()" interface is prone to that kind of
confusion, because people don't think very hard about whether they want
to block for sufficient amounts of entropy.
The approach here-in is to decide to not just passively wait for entropy
to happen, but to start actively collecting it if it is missing. This
is not necessarily always possible, but if the architecture has a CPU
cycle counter, there is a fair amount of noise in the exact timings of
reasonably complex loads.
We may end up tweaking the load and the entropy estimates, but this
should be at least a reasonable starting point.
As part of this, we also revert the revert of the ext4 IO pattern
improvement that ended up triggering the reported lack of external
entropy.
* getrandom() active entropy waiting:
Revert "Revert "ext4: make __ext4_get_inode_loc plug""
random: try to actively add entropy rather than passively wait for it
|
|
This reverts commit 72dbcf72156641fde4d8ea401e977341bfd35a05.
Instead of waiting forever for entropy that may just not happen, we now
try to actively generate entropy when required, and are thus hopefully
avoiding the problem that caused the nice ext4 IO pattern fix to be
reverted.
So revert the revert.

For 5.3 we had to revert a nice ext4 IO pattern improvement, because it
caused a bootup regression due to lack of entropy at bootup together
with arguably broken user space that was asking for secure random
numbers when it really didn't need to.
See commit 72dbcf721566 (Revert "ext4: make __ext4_get_inode_loc plug").
This aims to solve the issue by actively generating entropy noise using
the CPU cycle counter when waiting for the random number generator to
initialize. This only works when you have a high-frequency time stamp
counter available, but that's the case on all modern x86 CPU's, and on
most other modern CPU's too.
What we do is to generate jitter entropy from the CPU cycle counter
under a somewhat complex load: calling the scheduler while also
guaranteeing a certain amount of timing noise by also triggering a
timer.
I'm sure we can tweak this, and that people will want to look at other
alternatives, but there's been a number of papers written on jitter
entropy, and this should really be fairly conservative by crediting one
bit of entropy for every timer-induced jump in the cycle counter. Not
because the timer itself would be all that unpredictable, but because
the interaction between the timer and the loop is going to be.
Even if (and perhaps particularly if) the timer actually happens on
another CPU, the cacheline interaction between the loop that reads the
cycle counter and the timer itself firing is going to add perturbations
to the cycle counter values that get mixed into the entropy pool.
As Thomas pointed out, with a modern out-of-order CPU, even quite simple
loops show a fair amount of hard-to-predict timing variability even in
the absense of external interrupts. But this tries to take that further
by actually having a fairly complex interaction.
This is not going to solve the entropy issue for architectures that have
no CPU cycle counter, but it's not clear how (and if) that is solvable,
and the hardware in question is largely starting to be irrelevant. And
by doing this we can at least avoid some of the even more contentious
approaches (like making the entropy waiting time out in order to avoid
the possibly unbounded waiting).

broken a while back with removal of panel-dpi driver. We need to now
use generic CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE instead.

Pull thermal SoC updates from Eduardo Valentin:
"This is a really small pull in the midst of a lot of pending patches.
We are in the middle of restructuring how we are maintaining the
thermal subsystem, as per discussion in our last LPC. For now, I am
sending just some changes that were pending in my tree. Looking
forward to get a more streamlined process in the next merge window"

Pull iommu fixes from Joerg Roedel:
"A couple of fixes for the AMD IOMMU driver have piled up:
- Some fixes for the reworked IO page-table which caused memory leaks
or did not allow to downgrade mappings under some conditions.
- Locking fixes to fix a couple of possible races around accessing
'struct protection_domain'. The races got introduced when the
dma-ops path became lock-less in the fast-path"
