2018-01-16raid5-ppl: PPL support for disks with write-back cache enabledTomasz Majchrzak1-3/+4
In order to provide data consistency with PPL for disks with write-back cache enabled all data has to be flushed to disks before next PPL entry. The disks to be flushed are marked in the bitmap. It's modified under a mutex and it's only read after PPL io unit is submitted. A limitation of 64 disks in the array has been introduced to keep data structures and implementation simple. RAID5 arrays with so many disks are not likely due to high risk of multiple disks failure. Such restriction should not be a real life limitation. With write-back cache disabled next PPL entry is submitted when data write for current one completes. Data flush defers next log submission so trigger it when there are no stripes for handling found. As PPL assures all data is flushed to disk at request completion, just acknowledge flush request when PPL is enabled.

2018-01-14arm64: cpu_errata: Add Kryo to Falkor 1003 errataStephen Boyd1-1/+1
The Kryo CPUs are also affected by the Falkor 1003 errata, so we need to do the same workaround on Kryo CPUs. The MIDR is slightly more complicated here, where the PART number is not always the same when looking at all the bits from 15 to 4. Drop the lower 8 bits and just look at the top 4 to see if it's '2' and then consider those as Kryo CPUs. This covers all the combinations without having to list them all out.

Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window" is specified. This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory that would conflict with the window. The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to AMD CPUs. The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling it.

2018-01-11livepatch: Remove immediate featureMiroslav Benes1-62/+27
Immediate flag has been used to disable per-task consistency and patch all tasks immediately. It could be useful if the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. However, it causes problems on its own. The consistency problem is currently broken with respect to immediate patches. func a patches 1i 2i 3 When the patch 3 is applied, only 2i function is checked (by stack checking facility). There might be a task sleeping in 1i though. Such task is migrated to 3, because we do not check 1i in klp_check_stack_func() at all. Coming atomic replace feature would be easier to implement and more reliable without immediate. Thus, remove immediate feature completely and save us from the problems. Note that force feature has the similar problem. However it is considered as a last resort. If used, administrator should not apply any new live patches and should plan for reboot into an updated kernel. The architectures would now need to provide HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE to fully support livepatch.

2018-01-10uio_hv_generic: add rescind supportStephen Hemminger1-0/+4
When host rescinds the device, the UIO driver will clear the interrupt state and notify application. The read (or write) on the interrupt FD will then fail with -EIO. This is simpler than adding lots extra uevent stuff inside UIO. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
