Linus Torvalds 2e03285224 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "This set includes adding support for Neon acceleration of RAID6 XOR
  code from Ard Biesheuvel, cache flushing and barrier updates from Will
  Deacon, and a cleanup to the ARM debug code which reduces the amount
  of code by about 500 lines.

  A few other cleanups, such as constifying the machine descriptors
  which already shouldn't be written to, cleaning up the printing of the
  L2 cache size"

 "Unfortunately, this merge window it'll have a be a lot of small piles -
  my fault, actually, for not keeping #for-next in anything that would

Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.12-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "A couple of features and a ton of bug-fixes.  There is also some
  maintership changes.  Jeremy is enjoying the full-time work at the
  startup and as much as he would love to help - he can't find the time.
  I have a bunch of other things that I promised to work on - paravirt
  diet, get SWIOTLB working everywhere, etc, but haven't been able to
  find the time.

  As such both David Vrabel and Boris Ostrovsky have graciously
  volunteered to help with the maintership role.  They will keep the lid
  on regressions, bug-fixes, etc.  I will be in the background to help -
  but eventually there will be less of me doing the Xen GIT pulls and
  more of them.  Stefano is still doing the ARM/ARM64 and will continue
  on doing so.

  Features:
   - Xen Trusted Platform Module (TPM) frontend driver - with the
     backend in MiniOS.
   - Scalability improvements in event channel.
   - Two extra Xen co-maintainers (David, Boris) and one going away (Jeremy)

  Bug-fixes:
   - Make the 1:1 mapping work during early bootup on selective regions.
   - Add scratch page to balloon driver to deal with unexpected code

 "As a preparation for Andi Kleen's LTO patchset (link time
  optimizations using GCC's -flto which build time optimization has
  steadily increased in quality over the past few years and might
  eventually be usable for the kernel too) this tree includes a handful
  of preparatory patches that make function calling convention
  annotations consistent again:

   - Mark every function without arguments (or 64bit only) that is used
     by assembly code with asmlinkage()

   - Mark every function with parameters or variables that is used by
     assembly code as __visible.

  debuggability advantages, for the time being"

Linus Torvalds 40031da445 ACPI and power management updates for 3.12-rc1
1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem rework and introduction
     of Intel Thunderbolt support on systems that use ACPI for signalling
     Thunderbolt hotplug events.  This also should make ACPIPHP work in
     some cases in which it was known to have problems.  From
     Rafael J Wysocki, Mika Westerberg and Kirill A Shutemov.
 
  2) ACPI core code cleanups and dock station support cleanups from
     Jiang Liu and Rafael J Wysocki.
 
  3) Fixes for locking problems related to ACPI device hotplug from
     Rafael J Wysocki.
 
  4) ACPICA update to version 20130725 includig fixes, cleanups, support
     for more than 256 GPEs per GPE block and a change to make the ACPI
     PM Timer optional (we've seen systems without the PM Timer in the
     field already).  One of the fixes, related to the DeRefOf operator,
     is necessary to prevent some Windows 8 oriented AML from causing
     problems to happen.  From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, and Jung-uk Kim.
 
  5) Removal of the old and long deprecated /proc/acpi/event interface
     and related driver changes from Thomas Renninger.
 
  6) ACPI and Xen changes to make the reduced hardware sleep work with
     the latter from Ben Guthro.
 
  7) ACPI video driver cleanups and a blacklist of systems that should
     not tell the BIOS that they are compatible with Windows 8 (or ACPI
     backlight and possibly other things will not work on them).  From
     Felipe Contreras.
 
  8) Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Aaron Lu, Hanjun Guo,
     Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan, Lan Tianyu, Sachin Kamat, Tang Chen,
     Toshi Kani, and Wei Yongjun.
 
  9) cpufreq ondemand governor target frequency selection change to
     reduce oscillations between min and max frequencies (essentially,
     it causes the governor to choose target frequencies proportional
     to load) from Stratos Karafotis.
 
 10) cpufreq fixes allowing sysfs attributes file permissions to be
     preserved over suspend/resume cycles Srivatsa S Bhat.
 
 11) Removal of Device Tree parsing for CPU device nodes from multiple
     cpufreq drivers that required some changes related to
     of_get_cpu_node() to be made in a few architectures and in the
     driver core.  From Sudeep KarkadaNagesha.
 
 12) cpufreq core fixes and cleanups related to mutual exclusion and
     driver module references from Viresh Kumar, Lukasz Majewski and
     Rafael J Wysocki.
 
 13) Assorted cpufreq fixes and cleanups from Amit Daniel Kachhap,
     Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz, Hanjun Guo, Jingoo Han, Joseph Lo,
     Julia Lawall, Li Zhong, Mark Brown, Sascha Hauer, Stephen Boyd,
     Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar.
 
 14) Fixes to prevent race conditions in coupled cpuidle from happening
     from Colin Cross.
 
 15) cpuidle core fixes and cleanups from Daniel Lezcano and
     Tuukka Tikkanen.
 
 16) Assorted cpuidle fixes and cleanups from Daniel Lezcano,
     Geert Uytterhoeven, Jingoo Han, Julia Lawall, Linus Walleij,
     and Sahara.
 
 17) System sleep tracing changes from Todd E Brandt and Shuah Khan.
 
 18) PNP subsystem conversion to using struct dev_pm_ops for power
     management from Shuah Khan.

Linus Torvalds bc08b449ee lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg()
Instead of taking the spinlock, the lockless versions atomically check
that the lock is not taken, and do the reference count update using a
cmpxchg() loop.  This is semantically identical to doing the reference
count update protected by the lock, but avoids the "wait for lock"
contention that you get when accesses to the reference count are
contended.

Note that a "lockref" is absolutely _not_ equivalent to an atomic_t.
Even when the lockref reference counts are updated atomically with
cmpxchg, the fact that they also verify the state of the spinlock means
that the lockless updates can never happen while somebody else holds the
spinlock.

So while "lockref_put_or_lock()" looks a lot like just another name for
"atomic_dec_and_lock()", and both optimize to lockless updates, they are
fundamentally different: the decrement done by atomic_dec_and_lock() is
truly independent of any lock (as long as it doesn't decrement to zero),
so a locked region can still see the count change.

The lockref structure, in contrast, really is a *locked* reference
count.  If you hold the spinlock, the reference count will be stable and
you can modify the reference count without using atomics, because even
the lockless updates will see and respect the state of the lock.

In order to enable the cmpxchg lockless code, the architecture needs to
do three things:

 (1) Make sure that the "arch_spinlock_t" and an "unsigned int" can fit
     in an aligned u64, and have a "cmpxchg()" implementation that works
     on such a u64 data type.

 (2) define a helper function to test for a spinlock being unlocked
     ("arch_spin_value_unlocked()")

 (3) select the "ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF" config variable in its
     Kconfig file.

This enables it for x86-64 (but not 32-bit, we'd need to make sure
cmpxchg() turns into the proper cmpxchg8b in order to enable it for
32-bit mode).

Tang Chen 598bae70c2 earlycpio.c: Fix the confusing comment of find_cpio_data().
The comments of find_cpio_data() says:

  * @offset: When a matching file is found, this is the offset to the
  *          beginning of the cpio. ......

But according to the code,

  dptr = PTR_ALIGN(p + ch[C_NAMESIZE], 4);
  nptr = PTR_ALIGN(dptr + ch[C_FILESIZE], 4);
  ....
  *offset = (long)nptr - (long)data;	/* data is the cpio file */

@offset is the offset of the next file, not the matching file itself.
This is confused and may cause unnecessary waste of time to debug.
So fix it.

As Tejun Heo suggested, rename @offset to @nextoff which is more clear
to users. And also adjust the new comments.

Russell King c817a67ecb kobject: delayed kobject release: help find buggy drivers
Implement debugging for kobject release functions.  kobjects are
reference counted, so the drop of the last reference to them is not
predictable. However, the common case is for the last reference to be
the kobject's removal from a subsystem, which results in the release
function being immediately called.

This can hide subtle bugs, which can occur when another thread holds a
reference to the kobject at the same time that a kobject is removed.
This results in the release method being delayed.

In order to make these kinds of problems more visible, the following
patch implements a delayed release; this has the effect that the
release function will be out of order with respect to the removal of
the kobject in the same manner that it would be if a reference was
being held.

This provides us with an easy way to allow driver writers to debug
their drivers and fix otherwise hidden problems.

Russell King b4f656eea6 Pull branch 'for-rmk' of git://git.linaro.org/people/ardbiesheuvel/linux-arm into devel-stable
Comments from Ard Biesheuvel:

I have included two use cases that I have been using, XOR and RAID-6
checksumming. The former gets a 60% performance boost on the NEON, the
latter over 400%.

ARM: add support for kernel mode NEON

Adds kernel_neon_begin/end (renamed from kernel_vfp_begin/end in the
previous version to de-emphasize the VFP part as VFP code that needs
software assistance is not supported currently.)

Introduces <asm/neon.h> and the Kconfig symbol KERNEL_MODE_NEON. This
has been aligned with Catalin for arm64, so any NEON code that does
not use assembly but intrinsics or the GCC vectorizer (such as my
examples) can potentially be shared between arm and arm64 archs.

ARM: move VFP init to an earlier boot stage

This is needed so the NEON is enabled when the XOR and RAID-6 algo
boot time benchmarks are run.

ARM: be strict about FP exceptions in kernel mode

This adds a check to vfp_support_entry() to flag unsupported uses of
the NEON/VFP in kernel mode. FP exceptions (bounces) are flagged as
a bug, this is because of their potentially intermittent nature.
Exceptions caused by the fact that kernel_neon_begin has not been
called are just routed through the undef handler.

ARM: crypto: add NEON accelerated XOR implementation

This is the xor_blocks() implementation built with -ftree-vectorize,
60% faster than optimized ARM code. It calls in_interrupt() to check
whether the NEON flavor can be used: this should really not be
necessary, but due to xor_blocks'squite generic nature, there is no
telling how exactly people may be using it in the real world.

lib/raid6: add ARM-NEON accelerated syndrome calculation

This is a port of the RAID-6 checksumming code in altivec.uc ported
to use NEON intrinsics. It is about 4x faster than the sequential
code.

Paul Gortmaker 0db0628d90 kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel files
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.

Oleg Nesterov fb4214db50 llist: fix/simplify llist_add() and llist_add_batch()
1. This is mostly theoretical, but llist_add*() need ACCESS_ONCE().

   Otherwise it is not guaranteed that the first cmpxchg() uses the
   same value for old_entry and new_last->next.

2. These helpers cache the result of cmpxchg() and read the initial
   value of head->first before the main loop. I do not think this
   makes sense. In the likely case cmpxchg() succeeds, otherwise
   it doesn't hurt to reload head->first.

   I think it would be better to simplify the code and simply read
   ->first before cmpxchg().

  21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

  22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
      during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding.  From

Dan Carpenter 27daabd9b6 lib/scatterlist: error handling in __sg_alloc_table()
I was reviewing code which I suspected might allocate a zero size SG
table.  That will cause memory corruption.  Also we can't return before
doing the memset or we could end up using uninitialized memory in the
cleanup path.

Akinobu Mita 1105200480 lib/scatterlist: factor out sg_miter_get_next_page() from sg_miter_next()
This patchset introduces sg_pcopy_from_buffer() and sg_pcopy_to_buffer(),
which copy data between a linear buffer and an SG list.

The only difference between sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() and
sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() is an additional argument that specifies the
number of bytes to skip the SG list before copying.

The main reason for introducing these functions is to fix a problem in
scsi_debug module.  And there is a local function in crypto/talitos
module, which can be replaced by sg_pcopy_to_buffer().

This patch:

sg_miter_get_next_page() is used to proceed page iterator to the next page
if necessary, and will be used to implement the variants of
sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() later.

Chanho Min c72ac7a1a9 lib: add lz4 compressor module
This patchset is for supporting LZ4 compression and the crypto API using
it.

As shown below, the size of data is a little bit bigger but compressing
speed is faster under the enabled unaligned memory access.  We can use
lz4 de/compression through crypto API as well.  Also, It will be useful
for another potential user of lz4 compression.

lz4 Compression Benchmark:
Compiler: ARM gcc 4.6.4
ARMv7, 1 GHz based board
   Kernel: linux 3.4
   Uncompressed data Size: 101 MB
         Compressed Size  compression Speed
   LZO   72.1MB		  32.1MB/s, 33.0MB/s(UA)
   LZ4   75.1MB		  30.4MB/s, 35.9MB/s(UA)
   LZ4HC 59.8MB		   2.4MB/s,  2.5MB/s(UA)
- UA: Unaligned memory Access support
- Latest patch set for LZO applied

This patch:

Add support for LZ4 compression in the Linux Kernel.  LZ4 Compression APIs
for kernel are based on LZ4 implementation by Yann Collet and were changed
for kernel coding style.

LZ4 homepage : http://fastcompression.blogspot.com/p/lz4.html
LZ4 source repository : http://code.google.com/p/lz4/
svn revision : r90

Two APIs are added:

lz4_compress() support basic lz4 compression whereas lz4hc_compress()
support high compression or CPU performance get lower but compression
ratio get higher.  Also, we require the pre-allocated working memory with
the defined size and destination buffer must be allocated with the size of
lz4_compressbound.

- UA: Unaligned memory Access support
- Latest patch set for LZO applied

This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel.  LZ4 is a
very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely
fast decoder [1].

But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does
arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones?  This issue
had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2].

Russell King said that we should have:

 - one decompressor which is the fastest
 - one decompressor for the highest compression ratio
 - one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip)

If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly
that: replace it.

The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase
in decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the
fastest decompressor in the Kernel).  Therefore the "fast but may not be
small" compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].

Chanho Min 4df87bb7b6 lib: add weak clz/ctz functions
Some architectures need __c[lt]z[sd]i2() for __builtin_c[lt]z[ll] and
that causes a build failure.  They can be implemented using the
fls()/__ffs() and overridden by linking arch-specific versions may not
be implemented yet.

This is required by "lib: add lz4 compressor module".

Linus Torvalds e61aca5158 Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave Hansen
Merge Kconfig menu diet patches from Dave Hansen:
 "I think the "Kernel Hacking" menu has gotten a bit out of hand.  It is
  over 120 lines long on my system with everything enabled and options
  are scattered around it haphazardly.

        http://sr71.net/~dave/linux/kconfig-horror.png

  Let's try to introduce some sanity.  This set takes that 120 lines
  down to 55 and makes it vastly easier to find some things.  It's a
  start.

  This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up
  patches.  The arch-specific debug options still end up getting stuck
  in the top-level "kernel hacking" menu.  OPTIMIZE_INLINING, for
  instance, could obviously go in to the "compiler options" menu, but
  the fact that it is defined in arch/ in a separate Kconfig file keeps
  it on its own for the moment.

  The Signed-off-by's in here look funky.  I changed employers while
  working on this set, so I have signoffs from both email addresses"

These runtime tests are great, except that there are a lot of them,
and they are very rarely needed.  Give them their own menu so that
only the folks who need them will have to go looking for them.

Note that there are some other runtime tests that are not in here,
like for RCU or locking.  This menu should only be used for tests
that do not have a more appropriate home.
