2014-04-08arm64: add early_ioremap supportMark Salter1-2/+2
Add support for early IO or memory mappings which are needed before the normal ioremap() is usable. This also adds fixmap support for permanent fixed mappings such as that used by the earlyprintk device register region.

2014-04-08kconfig: make allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERTJosh Triplett1-0/+4
"make allnoconfig" exists to ease testing of minimal configurations. Documentation/SubmitChecklist includes a note to test with allnoconfig. This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required functionality, which might otherwise go unnoticed. However, allnoconfig still leaves many symbols enabled, because they're hidden behind CONFIG_EMBEDDED or CONFIG_EXPERT. For instance, allnoconfig still has CONFIG_PRINTK and CONFIG_BLOCK enabled, so drivers don't typically get build-tested with those disabled. To address this, introduce a new Kconfig option "allnoconfig_y", used on symbols which only exist to hide other symbols. Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED (which then selects CONFIG_EXPERT). allnoconfig will then disable all the symbols hidden behind those.

2014-04-08affs: add mount option to avoid filename truncatesFabian Frederick1-3/+6
Normal behavior for filenames exceeding specific filesystem limits is to refuse operation. AFFS standard name length being only 30 characters against 255 for usual Linux filesystems, original implementation does filename truncate by default with a define value AFFS_NO_TRUNCATE which can be enabled but needs module compilation. This patch adds 'nofilenametruncate' mount option so that user can easily activate that feature and avoid a lot of problems (eg overwrite files ...)

2014-04-08hung_task: check the value of "sysctl_hung_task_timeout_sec"Liu Hua1-0/+1
As sysctl_hung_task_timeout_sec is unsigned long, when this value is larger then LONG_MAX/HZ, the function schedule_timeout_interruptible in watchdog will return immediately without sleep and with print : schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value ffffffffffffff83 and then the funtion watchdog will call schedule_timeout_interruptible again and again. The screen will be filled with "schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value ffffffffffffff83" This patch does some check and correction in sysctl, to let the function schedule_timeout_interruptible allways get the valid parameter.

2014-04-08rapidio: rework device hierarchy and introduce mport class of devicesAlexandre Bounine1-8/+58
This patch removes an artificial RapidIO bus root device and establishes actual device hierarchy by providing reference to real parent devices. It also introduces device class for RapidIO controller devices (on-chip or an eternal bridge, known as "mport"). Existing implementation was sufficient for SoC-based platforms that have a single RapidIO controller. With introduction of devices using multiple RapidIO controllers and PCIe-to-RapidIO bridges the old scheme is very limiting or does not work at all. The implemented changes allow to properly reference platform's local RapidIO mport devices and provide device details needed for upper layers. This change to RapidIO device hierarchy does not break any known existing kernel or user space interfaces.

2014-04-08proc: show mnt_id in /proc/pid/fdinfoAndrey Vagin1-5/+12
Currently we don't have a way how to determing from which mount point file has been opened. This information is required for proper dumping and restoring file descriptos due to presence of mount namespaces. It's possible, that two file descriptors are opened using the same paths, but one fd references mount point from one namespace while the other fd -- from other namespace. $ ls -l /proc/1/fd/1 lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Mar 19 23:54 /proc/1/fd/1 -> /dev/null $ cat /proc/1/fdinfo/1 pos: 0 flags: 0100002 mnt_id: 16 $ cat /proc/1/mountinfo | grep ^16 16 32 0:4 / /dev rw,nosuid shared:2 - devtmpfs devtmpfs rw,size=1013356k,nr_inodes=253339,mode=755 Signed-off-by: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Acked-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@parallels.com> Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Cc: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

2014-04-08zram: propagate error to userMinchan Kim1-4/+5
When we initialized zcomp with single, we couldn't change max_comp_streams without zram reset but current interface doesn't show any error to user and even it changes max_comp_streams's value without any effect so it would make user very confusing. This patch prevents max_comp_streams's change when zcomp was initialized as single zcomp and emit the error to user(ex, echo).

2014-04-08zram: add multi stream functionalitySergey Senozhatsky2-6/+34
Existing zram (zcomp) implementation has only one compression stream (buffer and algorithm private part), so in order to prevent data corruption only one write (compress operation) can use this compression stream, forcing all concurrent write operations to wait for stream lock to be released. This patch changes zcomp to keep a compression streams list of user-defined size (via sysfs device attr). Each write operation still exclusively holds compression stream, the difference is that we can have N write operations (depending on size of streams list) executing in parallel. See TEST section later in commit message for performance data. Introduce struct zcomp_strm_multi and a set of functions to manage zcomp_strm stream access. zcomp_strm_multi has a list of idle zcomp_strm structs, spinlock to protect idle list and wait queue, making it possible to perform parallel compressions. The following set of functions added: - zcomp_strm_multi_find()/zcomp_strm_multi_release() find and release a compression stream, implement required locking - zcomp_strm_multi_create()/zcomp_strm_multi_destroy() create and destroy zcomp_strm_multi zcomp ->strm_find() and ->strm_release() callbacks are set during initialisation to zcomp_strm_multi_find()/zcomp_strm_multi_release() correspondingly. Each time zcomp issues a zcomp_strm_multi_find() call, the following set of operations performed: - spin lock strm_lock - if idle list is not empty, remove zcomp_strm from idle list, spin unlock and return zcomp stream pointer to caller - if idle list is empty, current adds itself to wait queue. it will be awaken by zcomp_strm_multi_release() caller. zcomp_strm_multi_release(): - spin lock strm_lock - add zcomp stream to idle list - spin unlock, wake up sleeper Minchan Kim reported that spinlock-based locking scheme has demonstrated a severe perfomance regression for single compression stream case, comparing to mutex-based (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/18/16) base spinlock mutex ==Initial write ==Initial write ==Initial write records: 5 records: 5 records: 5 avg: 1642424.35 avg: 699610.40 avg: 1655583.71 std: 39890.95(2.43%) std: 232014.19(33.16%) std: 52293.96 max: 1690170.94 max: 1163473.45 max: 1697164.75 min: 1568669.52 min: 573429.88 min: 1553410.23 ==Rewrite ==Rewrite ==Rewrite records: 5 records: 5 records: 5 avg: 1611775.39 avg: 501406.64 avg: 1684419.11 std: 17144.58(1.06%) std: 15354.41(3.06%) std: 18367.42 max: 1641800.95 max: 531356.78 max: 1706445.84 min: 1593515.27 min: 488817.78 min: 1655335.73 When only one compression stream available, mutex with spin on owner tends to perform much better than frequent wait_event()/wake_up(). This is why single stream implemented as a special case with mutex locking. Introduce and document zram device attribute max_comp_streams. This attr shows and stores current zcomp's max number of zcomp streams (max_strm). Extend zcomp's zcomp_create() with `max_strm' parameter. `max_strm' limits the number of zcomp_strm structs in compression backend's idle list (max_comp_streams). max_comp_streams used during initialisation as follows: -- passing to zcomp_create() max_strm equals to 1 will initialise zcomp using single compression stream zcomp_strm_single (mutex-based locking). -- passing to zcomp_create() max_strm greater than 1 will initialise zcomp using multi compression stream zcomp_strm_multi (spinlock-based locking). default max_comp_streams value is 1, meaning that zram with single stream will be initialised. Later patch will introduce configuration knob to change max_comp_streams on already initialised and used zcomp.

2014-04-08mm: introduce vm_ops->map_pages()Kirill A. Shutemov1-0/+10
Here's new version of faultaround patchset. It took a while to tune it and collect performance data. First patch adds new callback ->map_pages to vm_operations_struct. ->map_pages() is called when VM asks to map easy accessible pages. Filesystem should find and map pages associated with offsets from "pgoff" till "max_pgoff". ->map_pages() is called with page table locked and must not block. If it's not possible to reach a page without blocking, filesystem should skip it. Filesystem should use do_set_pte() to setup page table entry. Pointer to entry associated with offset "pgoff" is passed in "pte" field in vm_fault structure. Pointers to entries for other offsets should be calculated relative to "pte". Currently VM use ->map_pages only on read page fault path. We try to map FAULT_AROUND_PAGES a time. FAULT_AROUND_PAGES is 16 for now. Performance data for different FAULT_AROUND_ORDER is below. TODO: - implement ->map_pages() for shmem/tmpfs; - modify get_user_pages() to be able to use ->map_pages() and implement mmap(MAP_POPULATE|MAP_NONBLOCK) on top. ========================================================================= Tested on 4-socket machine (120 threads) with 128GiB of RAM.

Use cases include tracking changed blocks for backup software, and partially invalidating the contents of a cache to restore cache coherency after rolling back a vendor snapshot. - Improve the on-disk layout of multithreaded writes to the dm-thin-pool by splitting the pool's deferred bio list to be a per-thin device list and then sorting that list using an rb_tree. The subsequent read throughput of the data written via multiple threads improved by ~70%. - Simplify the multipath target's handling of queuing IO by pushing requests back to the request queue rather than queueing the IO internally. * tag 'dm-3.15-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (24 commits) dm cache: fix a lock-inversion dm thin: sort the per thin deferred bios using an rb_tree dm thin: use per thin device deferred bio lists dm thin: simplify pool_is_congested dm thin: fix dangling bio in process_deferred_bios error path dm mpath: print more useful warnings in multipath_message() dm-mpath: do not activate failed paths dm mpath: remove extra nesting in map function dm mpath: remove map_io() dm mpath: reduce memory pressure when requeuing dm mpath: remove process_queued_ios() dm mpath: push back requests instead of queueing dm table: add dm_table_run_md_queue_async dm mpath: do not call pg_init when it is already running dm: use RCU_INIT_POINTER instead of rcu_assign_pointer in __unbind dm: stop using bi_private dm: remove dm_get_mapinfo dm: make dm_table_alloc_md_mempools static dm: take care to copy the space map roots before locking the superblock dm transaction manager: fix corruption due to non-atomic transaction commit ...

The plan is still to move the devicetree files out of the kernel tree and reduce the amount of churn going on here, but we keep finding reasons to delay doing that. Changes are really all over the place, with little sticking out particularly. We have contributions from a total of 116 people in this branch. Unfortunately, the size of this branch also causes a significant number of conflicts at the moment, typically when subsystem maintainers merge patches that change the driver at the same time as the dts files.

Pull ARM changes from Russell King: - Perf updates from Will Deacon: - Support for Qualcomm Krait processors (run perf on your phone!) - Support for Cortex-A12 (run perf stat on your FPGA!) - Support for perf_sample_event_took, allowing us to automatically decrease the sample rate if we can't handle the PMU interrupts quickly enough (run perf record on your FPGA!). - Basic uprobes support from David Long: This patch series adds basic uprobes support to ARM. It is based on patches developed earlier by Rabin Vincent. That approach of adding hooks into the kprobes instruction parsing code was not well received. This approach separates the ARM instruction parsing code in kprobes out into a separate set of functions which can be used by both kprobes and uprobes. Both kprobes and uprobes then provide their own semantic action tables to process the results of the parsing. - ARMv7M (microcontroller) updates from Uwe Kleine-König - OMAP DMA updates (recently added Vinod's Ack even though they've been sitting in linux-next for a few months) to reduce the reliance of omap-dma on the code in arch/arm. - SA11x0 changes from Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov and Alexander Shiyan - Support for Cortex-A12 CPU - Align support for ARMv6 with ARMv7 so they can cooperate better in a single zImage. - Addition of first AT_HWCAP2 feature bits for ARMv8 crypto support. - Removal of IRQ_DISABLED from various ARM files - Improved efficiency of virt_to_page() for single zImage - Patch from Ulf Hansson to permit runtime PM callbacks to be available for AMBA devices for suspend/resume as well. - Finally kill asm/system.h on ARM. * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (89 commits) dmaengine: omap-dma: more consolidation of CCR register setup dmaengine: omap-dma: move IRQ handling to omap-dma dmaengine: omap-dma: move register read/writes into omap-dma.c ARM: omap: dma: get rid of 'p' allocation and clean up ARM: omap: move dma channel allocation into plat-omap code ARM: omap: dma: get rid of errata global ARM: omap: clean up DMA register accesses ARM: omap: remove almost-const variables ARM: omap: remove references to disable_irq_lch dmaengine: omap-dma: cleanup errata 3.3 handling dmaengine: omap-dma: provide register read/write functions dmaengine: omap-dma: use cached CCR value when enabling DMA dmaengine: omap-dma: move barrier to omap_dma_start_desc() dmaengine: omap-dma: move clnk_ctrl setting to preparation functions dmaengine: omap-dma: improve efficiency loading C.SA/C.EI/C.FI registers dmaengine: omap-dma: consolidate clearing channel status register dmaengine: omap-dma: move CCR buffering disable errata out of the fast path dmaengine: omap-dma: provide register definitions dmaengine: omap-dma: consolidate setup of CCR dmaengine: omap-dma: consolidate setup of CSDP ...

Of course there will be some amount of fixes on top... - Merged in a branch of irqchip changes from Thomas Gleixner: we need to have new callbacks from the irqchip to determine if the GPIO line will be eligible for IRQs, and this callback must be able to say "no". After some thinking I got the branch from tglx and have switched all current users over to use this. - Based on tglx patches, we have added some generic irqchip helpers in the gpiolib core. These will help centralize code when GPIO drivers have simple chained/cascaded IRQs. Drivers will still define their irqchip vtables, but the gpiolib core will take care of irqdomain set-up, mapping from local offsets to Linux irqs, and reserve resources by marking the GPIO lines for IRQs. - Initially the PL061 and Nomadik GPIO/pin control drivers have been switched over to use the new gpiochip-to-irqchip infrastructure with more drivers expected for the next kernel cycle. The factoring of just two drivers still makes it worth it so it is already a win. - A new driver for the Synopsys DesignWare APB GPIO block. - Modify the DaVinci GPIO driver to be reusable also for the new TI Keystone architecture. - A new driver for the LSI ZEVIO SoCs. - Delete the obsolte tnetv107x driver. - Some incremental work on GPIO descriptors: have gpiod_direction_output() use a logical level, respecting assertion polarity through ACTIVE_LOW flags, adding gpiod_direction_output_raw() for the case where you want to set that very value. Add gpiochip_get_desc() to fetch a GPIO descriptor from a specific offset on a certain chip inside driver code. - Switch ACPI GPIO code over to using gpiochip_get_desc() and get rid of gpio_to_desc(). - The ACPI GPIO event handling code has been reworked after encountering an actual real life implementation. - Support for ACPI GPIO operation regions. - Generic GPIO chips can now be assigned labels/names from platform data. - We now clamp values returned from GPIO drivers to the boolean [0,1] range. - Some improved documentation on how to use the polarity flag was added. - a large slew of incremental driver updates and non-critical fixes.

2014-04-04nilfs2: implementation of NILFS_IOCTL_SET_SUINFO ioctlAndreas Rohner1-0/+7
With this ioctl the segment usage entries in the SUFILE can be updated from userspace. This is useful, because it allows the userspace GC to modify and update segment usage entries for specific segments, which enables it to avoid unnecessary write operations. If a segment needs to be cleaned, but there is no or very little reclaimable space in it, the cleaning operation basically degrades to a useless moving operation. In the end the only thing that changes is the location of the data and a timestamp in the segment usage information. With this ioctl the GC can skip the cleaning and update the segment usage entries directly instead. This is basically a shortcut to cleaning the segment. It is still necessary to read the segment summary information, but the writing of the live blocks can be skipped if it's not worth it.

2014-04-04drop_caches: add some documentation and info messageDave Hansen1-6/+27
There is plenty of anecdotal evidence and a load of blog posts suggesting that using "drop_caches" periodically keeps your system running in "tip top shape". Perhaps adding some kernel documentation will increase the amount of accurate data on its use. If we are not shrinking caches effectively, then we have real bugs. Using drop_caches will simply mask the bugs and make them harder to find, but certainly does not fix them, nor is it an appropriate "workaround" to limit the size of the caches. On the contrary, there have been bug reports on issues that turned out to be misguided use of cache dropping. Dropping caches is a very drastic and disruptive operation that is good for debugging and running tests, but if it creates bug reports from production use, kernel developers should be aware of its use. Add a bit more documentation about it, a syslog message to track down abusers, and vmstat drop counters to help analyze problem reports.

2014-04-04mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cacheJohannes Weiner1-3/+3
Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point, reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty. Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check for this flag before installing shadow pages.

2014-04-04kmemleak: allow freeing internal objects after kmemleak was disabledLi Zefan1-1/+14
Currently if kmemleak is disabled, the kmemleak objects can never be freed, no matter if it's disabled by a user or due to fatal errors. Those objects can be a big waste of memory. OBJS ACTIVE USE OBJ SIZE SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME 1200264 1197433 99% 0.30K 46164 26 369312K kmemleak_object With this patch, after kmemleak was disabled you can reclaim memory with: # echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak Also inform users about this with a printk.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Most of the changes were largely clean ups, and some documentation. But there were a few features that were added: Uprobes now work with event triggers and multi buffers and have support under ftrace and perf. The big feature is that the function tracer can now be used within the multi buffer instances. That is, you can now trace some functions in one buffer, others in another buffer, all functions in a third buffer and so on. They are basically agnostic from each other. This only works for the function tracer and not for the function graph trace, although you can have the function graph tracer running in the top level buffer (or any tracer for that matter) and have different function tracing going on in the sub buffers" * tag 'trace-3.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (45 commits) tracing: Add BUG_ON when stack end location is over written tracepoint: Remove unused API functions Revert "tracing: Move event storage for array from macro to standalone function" ftrace: Constify ftrace_text_reserved tracepoints: API doc update to tracepoint_probe_register() return value tracepoints: API doc update to data argument ftrace: Fix compilation warning about control_ops_free ftrace/x86: BUG when ftrace recovery fails ftrace: Warn on error when modifying ftrace function ftrace: Remove freelist from struct dyn_ftrace ftrace: Do not pass data to ftrace_dyn_arch_init ftrace: Pass retval through return in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() ftrace: Inline the code from ftrace_dyn_table_alloc() ftrace: Cleanup of global variables ftrace_new_pgs and ftrace_update_cnt tracing: Evaluate len expression only once in __dynamic_array macro tracing: Correctly expand len expressions from __dynamic_array macro tracing/module: Replace include of tracepoint.h with jump_label.h in module.h tracing: Fix event header migrate.h to include tracepoint.h tracing: Fix event header writeback.h to include tracepoint.h tracing: Warn if a tracepoint is not set via debugfs ...
