Revert commit 69a37bea (cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for
repeat mode), because it has been identified as the source of a
significant performance regression in v3.8 and later as explained by
Jeremy Eder:
We believe we've identified a particular commit to the cpuidle code
that seems to be impacting performance of variety of workloads.
The simplest way to reproduce is using netperf TCP_RR test, so
we're using that, on a pair of Sandy Bridge based servers. We also
have data from a large database setup where performance is also
measurably/positively impacted, though that test data isn't easily
share-able.
Included below are test results from 3 test kernels:
kernel reverts
-----------------------------------------------------------
1) vanilla upstream (no reverts)
2) perfteam2 reverts e11538d1f03914eb92af5a1a378375c05ae8520c
3) test reverts 69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4
e11538d1f03914eb92af5a1a378375c05ae8520c
In summary, netperf TCP_RR numbers improve by approximately 4%
after reverting 69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4. When
69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4 is included, C0 residency
never seems to get above 40%. Taking that patch out gets C0 near
100% quite often, and performance increases.
The below data are histograms representing the %c0 residency @
1-second sample rates (using turbostat), while under netperf test.
- If you look at the first 4 histograms, you can see %c0 residency
almost entirely in the 30,40% bin.
- The last pair, which reverts 69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4,
shows %c0 in the 80,90,100% bins.
Below each kernel name are netperf TCP_RR trans/s numbers for the
particular kernel that can be disclosed publicly, comparing the 3
test kernels. We ran a 4th test with the vanilla kernel where
we've also set /dev/cpu_dma_latency=0 to show overall impact
boosting single-threaded TCP_RR performance over 11% above
baseline.

These results demonstrate gaining back the tendency of the CPU to
stay in more responsive, performant C-states (and thus yield
measurably better performance), by reverting commit
69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4.

The most critical one is a fix for ahci oops during boot. Also, a new

We attempted to address a regression introduced by commit a57f7f9
(ACPICA: Add Windows8/Server2012 string for _OSI method.) after which
ACPI video backlight support doesn't work on a number of systems,
because the relevant AML methods in the ACPI tables in their BIOSes
become useless after the BIOS has been told that the OS is compatible
with Windows 8. That problem is tracked by the bug entry at:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231
Commit 8c5bd7a (ACPI / video / i915: No ACPI backlight if firmware
expects Windows 8) introduced for this purpose essentially prevented
the ACPI backlight support from being used if the BIOS had been told
that the OS was compatible with Windows 8 and the i915 driver was
loaded, in which case the backlight would always be handled by i915.
Unfortunately, however, that turned out to cause problems with
backlight to appear on multiple systems with symptoms indicating that
i915 was unable to control the backlight on those systems as
expected.
For this reason, revert commit 8c5bd7a, but leave the function
acpi_video_backlight_quirks() introduced by it, because another
commit on top of it uses that function.

What happens is that bus_register needs a statically allocated lock_key
because the last is handed in to lockdep. However, struct mem_ctl_info
embeds struct bus_type (the whole struct, not a pointer to it) and the
whole thing gets dynamically allocated.
Fix this by using a statically allocated struct bus_type for the MC bus.

Pull block IO driver bits from Jens Axboe:
"As I mentioned in the core block pull request, due to real life
circumstances the driver pull request would be late. Now it looks
like -rc2 late... On the plus side, apart form the rsxx update, these
are all things that I could argue could go in later in the cycle as
they are fixes and not features. So even though things are late, it's
not ALL bad.
The pull request contains:
- Updates to bcache, all bug fixes, from Kent.
- A pile of drbd bug fixes (no big features this time!).
- xen blk front/back fixes.
- rsxx driver updates, some of them deferred form 3.10. So should be

Pull ACPI video support fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"I'm sending a separate pull request for this as it may be somewhat
controversial. The breakage addressed here is not really new and the
fixes may not satisfy all users of the affected systems, but we've had
so much back and forth dance in this area over the last several weeks
that I think it's time to actually make some progress.
The source of the problem is that about a year ago we started to tell
BIOSes that we're compatible with Windows 8, which we really need to
do, because some systems shipping with Windows 8 are tested with it
and nothing else, so if we tell their BIOSes that we aren't compatible
with Windows 8, we expose our users to untested BIOS/AML code paths.
However, as it turns out, some Windows 8-specific AML code paths are
not tested either, because Windows 8 actually doesn't use the ACPI
methods containing them, so if we declare Windows 8 compatibility and
attempt to use those ACPI methods, things break. That occurs mostly
in the backlight support area where in particular the _BCM and _BQC
methods are plain unusable on some systems if the OS declares Windows
8 compatibility.
[ The additional twist is that they actually become usable if the OS
says it is not compatible with Windows 8, but that may cause
problems to show up elsewhere ]
Investigation carried out by Matthew Garrett indicates that what
Windows 8 does about backlight is to leave backlight control up to
individual graphics drivers. At least there's evidence that it does
that if the Intel graphics driver is used, so we've decided to follow
Windows 8 in that respect and allow i915 to control backlight (Daniel
likes that part).
The first commit from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export the variable from
which we can infer whether or not the BIOS believes that we are
compatible with Windows 8.
The second commit from Matthew Garrett prepares the ACPI video driver
by making it initialize the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to
be used afterward (that is needed for backlight control to work on
Thinkpads).
The third commit implements the actual workaround making i915 take
over backlight control if the firmware thinks it's dealing with
Windows 8 and is based on the work of multiple developers, including
Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee, and Aaron Lu.
The final commit from Aaron Lu makes us follow Windows 8 by informing
the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out
automatic brightness changes, so that brightness can be controlled by
GUI.
Hopefully, this approach will allow us to avoid using blacklists of
systems that should not declare Windows 8 compatibility just to avoid
backlight control problems in the future.
- Change from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export a variable which can be
used by driver code to determine whether or not the BIOS believes
that we are compatible with Windows 8.
- Change from Matthew Garrett makes the ACPI video driver initialize
the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to be used afterward
(that is needed for backlight control to work on Thinkpads).
- Fix from Rafael J Wysocki implements Windows 8 backlight support
workaround making i915 take over bakclight control if the firmware
thinks it's dealing with Windows 8. Based on the work of multiple
developers including Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee,
and Aaron Lu.

the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out

"These are fixes collected over the last week, most importnatly two
cpufreq reverts fixing regressions introduced in 3.10, an autoseelp
fix preventing systems using it from crashing during shutdown and two
ACPI scan fixes related to hotplug.
Specifics:
- Two cpufreq commits from the 3.10 cycle introduced regressions.
The first of them was buggy (it did way much more than it needed to
do) and the second one attempted to fix an issue introduced by the
first one. Fixes from Srivatsa S Bhat revert both.
- If autosleep triggers during system shutdown and the shutdown
callbacks of some device drivers have been called already, it may
crash the system. Fix from Liu Shuo prevents that from happening
by making try_to_suspend() check system_state.
- The ACPI memory hotplug driver doesn't clear its driver_data on
errors which may cause a NULL poiter dereference to happen later.
Fix from Toshi Kani.
- The ACPI namespace scanning code should not try to attach scan
handlers to device objects that have them already, which may
confuse things quite a bit, and it should rescan the whole
namespace branch starting at the given node after receiving a bus
check notify event even if the device at that particular node has
been discovered already. Fixes from Rafael J Wysocki.
- New ACPI video blacklist entry for a system whose initial backlight
setting from the BIOS doesn't make sense. From Lan Tianyu.
- Garbage string output avoindance for ACPI PNP from Liu Shuo.

In commit 48cc32d38a52d0b68f91a171a8d00531edc6a46e
("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols")
Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST
if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this
particular id.
But we also have a problem if prio bits are set.
Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a
vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device,
because skb->vlan_tci is set.
Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000)
being inserted in the middle of IPv6 source address :
16:48:00.780413 IP6 2001:16d8:8100:4000:ee1c:0:9d9:bc87 >

It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now.
We can probably do better in future kernels :
vlan_get_ingress_priority() should be a netdev property instead of
a per vlan_dev one.
For stable kernels, lets clear vlan_tci to fix the bugs.

Pull driver core patches from Greg KH:
"Here are some driver core patches for 3.11-rc2. They aren't really
bugfixes, but a bunch of new helper macros for drivers to properly
create attribute groups, which drivers and subsystems need to fix up a
ton of race issues with incorrectly creating sysfs files (binary and
normal) after userspace has been told that the device is present.
Also here is the ability to create binary files as attribute groups,
to solve that race condition, which was impossible to do before this,
so that's my fault the drivers were broken.
The majority of the .c changes is indenting and moving code around a
bit. It affects no existing code, but allows the large backlog of 70+

Pull phase two of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker:
"With the __cpuinit infrastructure removed earlier, this group of

According to Matthew Garrett, "Windows 8 leaves backlight control up
to individual graphics drivers rather than making ACPI calls itself.
There's plenty of evidence to suggest that the Intel driver for
Windows [8] doesn't use the ACPI interface, including the fact that
it's broken on a bunch of machines when the OS claims to support
Windows 8. The simplest thing to do appears to be to disable the
ACPI backlight interface on these systems".
There's a problem with that approach, however, because simply
avoiding to register the ACPI backlight interface if the firmware
calls _OSI for Windows 8 may not work in the following situations:
(1) The ACPI backlight interface actually works on the given system
and the i915 driver is not loaded (e.g. another graphics driver
is used).
(2) The ACPI backlight interface doesn't work on the given system,
but there is a vendor platform driver that will register its
own, equally broken, backlight interface if not prevented from
doing so by the ACPI subsystem.
Therefore we need to allow the ACPI backlight interface to be
registered until the i915 driver is loaded which then will unregister
it if the firmware has called _OSI for Windows 8 (or will register
the ACPI video driver without backlight support if not already
present).
For this reason, introduce an alternative function for registering
ACPI video, acpi_video_register_with_quirks(), that will check
whether or not the ACPI video driver has already been registered
and whether or not the backlight Windows 8 quirk has to be applied.
If the quirk has to be applied, it will block the ACPI backlight
support and either unregister the backlight interface if the ACPI
video driver has already been registered, or register the ACPI
video driver without the backlight interface otherwise. Make
the i915 driver use acpi_video_register_with_quirks() instead of
acpi_video_register() in i915_driver_load().
This change is based on earlier patches from Matthew Garrett,
Chun-Yi Lee and Seth Forshee and includes a fix from Aaron Lu's.

Jonathan writes:
The first round of IIO fixes for the 3.11 cycle.
This set is larger than I would like, partly due to my lack of review
time in the weeks before the merge window and partly because a
couple of large drivers and the subsystem as a whole seem to be
getting a lot more exposure and testing recently.
1) A long term bug in trigger handling gave a double free of the device.
2) Wrong return value handling means offsets are ignored in
iio_convert_raw_to_processed_unlocked.
3) The iio_channel_has_info utility function was incorrectly updated
during the recent info_mask split, this is now fixed.
4) mxs-lradc has a couple of little fixes.
5) A couple of missing .driver_module entries meant that drivers
could be removed from underneath their users.
6) Error path fixes for ad7303 and lis3l02dq.
7) The scale value for presure in the lps331ap driver was out by
a factor of 100.

__list_for_each used to be the non prefetch() aware list walking
primitive. When we removed the prefetch macros from the list routines,
it became redundant. Given it does exactly the same thing as
list_for_each now, we might as well remove it and call list_for_each
directly.
All users of __list_for_each have been converted to list_for_each calls
in the current merge window.

groups should be able to support binary attributes, just like it
supports "normal" attributes. This lets us only handle one type of
structure, groups, throughout the driver core and subsystems, making
binary attributes a "full fledged" part of the driver model, and not
something just "tacked on".

This makes it easier to create static binary attributes, which is needed
in a number of drivers, instead of "open coding" them.

To make it easier for driver subsystems to work with attribute groups,
create the ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS macro to remove some of the repetitive
typing for the most common use for attribute groups.

A number of parts of the kernel created their own version of this, might
as well have the sysfs core provide it instead.

The fec/enet driver calculates MDC rate with the formula below.
ref_freq / ((MII_SPEED + 1) x 2)
The ref_freq here is the fec internal module clock, which is missing
from clk-vf610 clock driver right now. And clk-vf610 driver mistakenly
supplies RMII clock (50 MHz) as the source to fec. This results in the
situation that fec driver gets ref_freq as 50 MHz, while physically it
runs at 66 MHz (fec module clock physically sources from ipg which runs
at 66 MHz). That's why software expects MDC runs at 2.5 MHz, while the
measurement tells it runs at 3.3 MHz. And this causes the PHY KSZ8041
keeps swithing between Full and Half mode as below.
libphy: 400d0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Full
libphy: 400d0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Half
libphy: 400d0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Full
libphy: 400d0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Half
libphy: 400d0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Full
libphy: 400d0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Half
Add the missing module clock for ENET0 and ENET1, and correct the clock
supplying in device tree to fix above issue.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in
the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include)
that don't really have a specific maintainer.

Pull slab update from Pekka Enberg:
"Highlights:
- Fix for boot-time problems on some architectures due to
init_lock_keys() not respecting kmalloc_caches boundaries
(Christoph Lameter)
- CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL requested by RT folks (Joonsoo Kim)
- Fix for excessive slab freelist draining (Wanpeng Li)
- SLUB and SLOB cleanups and fixes (various people)"
I ended up editing the branch, and this avoids two commits at the end
that were immediately reverted, and I instead just applied the oneliner
fix in between myself.
* 'slab/for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/linux
slub: Check for page NULL before doing the node_match check
mm/slab: Give s_next and s_stop slab-specific names
slob: Check for NULL pointer before calling ctor()
slub: Make cpu partial slab support configurable
slab: add kmalloc() to kernel API documentation
slab: fix init_lock_keys
slob: use DIV_ROUND_UP where possible
slub: do not put a slab to cpu partial list when cpu_partial is 0
mm/slub: Use node_nr_slabs and node_nr_objs in get_slabinfo
mm/slub: Drop unnecessary nr_partials
mm/slab: Fix /proc/slabinfo unwriteable for slab
mm/slab: Sharing s_next and s_stop between slab and slub
mm/slab: Fix drain freelist excessively
slob: Rework #ifdeffery in slab.h
mm, slab: moved kmem_cache_alloc_node comment to correct place

make simple_lookup() usable for filesystems that set ->s_d_op
configfs: don't open-code d_alloc_name()
__rpc_lookup_create_exclusive: pass string instead of qstr
rpc_create_*_dir: don't bother with qstr
llist: llist_add() can use llist_add_batch()
llist: fix/simplify llist_add() and llist_add_batch()
fput: turn "list_head delayed_fput_list" into llist_head
fs/file_table.c:fput(): add comment
