Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) New offloading infrastructure and example 'rocker' driver for
    offloading of switching and routing to hardware.

    This work was done by a large group of dedicated individuals, not
    limited to: Scott Feldman, Jiri Pirko, Thomas Graf, John Fastabend,
    Jamal Hadi Salim, Andy Gospodarek, Florian Fainelli, Roopa Prabhu

 2) Start making the networking operate on IOV iterators instead of
    modifying iov objects in-situ during transfers.  Thanks to Al Viro
    and Herbert Xu.

 3) A set of new netlink interfaces for the TIPC stack, from Richard
    Alpe.

 4) Remove unnecessary looping during ipv6 routing lookups, from Martin
    KaFai Lau.

 5) Add PAUSE frame generation support to gianfar driver, from Matei
    Pavaluca.

 6) Allow for larger reordering levels in TCP, which are easily
    achievable in the real world right now, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Add a variable of napi_schedule that doesn't need to disable cpu
    interrupts, from Eric Dumazet.

 8) Use a doubly linked list to optimize neigh_parms_release(), from
    Nicolas Dichtel.

 9) Various enhancements to the kernel BPF verifier, and allow eBPF
    programs to actually be attached to sockets.  From Alexei
    Starovoitov.

10) Support TSO/LSO in sunvnet driver, from David L Stevens.

Linus Torvalds 350e4f4985 This code is a fork from the trace-3.19 pull as it needed the trace_seq
clean ups from that branch.
 
 This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context.
 The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI
 were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could
 deadlock from the printk() internal locks. This has been seen in practice.
 
 With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several
 iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be
 accepted into mainline.
 
 Here's what is contained in this patch set:
 
  o Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor
    to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()"
    formatted strings into it. The generic version was pulled out of
    the trace_seq() code that was made specifically for tracing.
 
  o The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code. I have
    a patch (not included for 3.19) that converts the seq_file.c code
    over to use seq_buf.c like the trace_seq.c code does. This was done
    to make sure that seq_buf.c is compatible with seq_file.c. I may
    try to get that patch in for 3.20.
 
  o The seq_buf.c file was moved to lib/ to remove it from being dependent
    on CONFIG_TRACING.
 
  o The printk() was updated to allow for a per_cpu "override" of
    the internal calls. That is, instead of writing to the console, a call
    to printk() may do something else. This made it easier to allow the
    NMI to change what printk() does in order to call dump_stack() without
    needing to update that code as well.
 
  o Finally, the dump_stack from all CPUs via NMI code was converted to
    use the seq_buf code. The caller to trigger the NMI code would wait
    till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the seq_buf
    data to the console safely from a non NMI context.

Pull nmi-safe seq_buf printk update from Steven Rostedt:

  PREEMPT_RT, printk() only writes to console if the console does not
  use any rt_mutex converted spin locks.  Which a lot do"

Daniel Borkmann 0cb6c969ed net, lib: kill arch_fast_hash library bits
As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill
it entirely.

This basically reverts commit 71ae8aac3e ("lib: introduce arch
optimized hash library") and follow-up work, that is f.e., commit
237217546d ("lib: hash: follow-up fixups for arch hash"),
commit e3fec2f74f ("lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for
asm-generic/hash.h") and last but not least commit 6a02652df5

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 8d58e99af5 seq_buf: Move the seq_buf code to lib/
The seq_buf functions are rather useful outside of tracing. Instead
of having it be dependent on CONFIG_TRACING, move the code into lib/
and allow other users to have access to it even when tracing is not
configured.

The seq_buf utility is similar to the seq_file utility, but instead of
writing sending data back up to userland, it writes it into a buffer
defined at seq_buf_init(). This allows us to send a descriptor around
that writes printf() formatted strings into it that can be retrieved
later.

It is currently used by the tracing facility for such things like trace
events to convert its binary saved data in the ring buffer into an
ASCII human readable context to be displayed in /sys/kernel/debug/trace.

It can also be used for doing NMI prints safely from NMI context into
the seq_buf and retrieved later and dumped to printk() safely. Doing
printk() from an NMI context is dangerous because an NMI can preempt
a current printk() and deadlock on it.

Valentin Rothberg 8a6f0b47da lib: rename TEST_MODULE to TEST_LKM
The "_MODULE" suffix is reserved for tristates compiled as loadable kernel
modules (LKM).  The "TEST_MODULE" feature thereby violates this
convention.  The feature is used to compile the lib/test_module.c kernel
module.

Sadly this convention is not made explicit, but the Kconfig code documents
it.  The following code (./scripts/kconfig/confdata.c) is used to generate
the autoconf.h header file during the build process.  When a feature is
selected as a kernel module ('m'), it is suffixed with "_MODULE" to
indicate it.

	switch (*value) {
	case 'n':
		break;
	case 'm':
		suffix = "_MODULE";
		/* fall through */

This causes problems for static code analysis, which assumes a consistent
use of the "_MODULE" suffix.

This patch renames the feature and its reference in a Makefile to
"TEST_LKM", which still expresses the test of a LKM.

Lai Jiangshan 6de8ab68bc lib: remove prio_heap
The prio_heap code is unused since commit 889ed9ceaa ("cgroup: remove
css_scan_tasks()").  It should be compiled out to shrink the binary
kernel size which can be done via introducing CONFIG_PRIO_HEAD or by
removing the code.

We can simply recover the code from git when needed, so it would be
better to remove it IMO.

Thomas Graf 7e1e77636e lib: Resizable, Scalable, Concurrent Hash Table
Generic implementation of a resizable, scalable, concurrent hash table
based on [0]. The implementation supports both, fixed size keys specified
via an offset and length, or arbitrary keys via own hash and compare
functions.

Lookups are lockless and protected as RCU read side critical sections.
Automatic growing/shrinking based on user configurable watermarks is
available while allowing concurrent lookups to take place.

Objects to be hashed must include a struct rhash_head. The reason for not
using the existing struct hlist_head is that the expansion and shrinking
will have two buckets point to a single entry which would lead in obscure
reverse chaining behaviour.

Code includes a boot selftest if CONFIG_TEST_RHASHTABLE is defined.

Chris Wilson a88cc108f6 lib: Export interval_tree
lib/interval_tree.c provides a simple interface for an interval-tree
(an augmented red-black tree) but is only built when testing the generic
macros for building interval-trees. For drivers with modest needs,
export the simple interval-tree library as is.

v2: Lots of help from Michel Lespinasse to only compile the code
    as required:
    - make INTERVAL_TREE a config option
    - make INTERVAL_TREE_TEST select the library functions
      and sanitize the filenames & Makefile
    - prepare interval_tree for being built as a module if required

Peter Oberparleiter 6583327c4d x86, hweight: Fix BUG when booting with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y
Commit d61931d89b, "x86: Add optimized popcnt variants" introduced
compile flag -fcall-saved-rdi for lib/hweight.c. When combined with
options -fprofile-arcs and -O2, this flag causes gcc to generate
broken constructor code. As a result, a 64 bit x86 kernel compiled
with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y prints message "gcov: could not create
file" and runs into sproadic BUGs during boot.

The gcc people indicate that these kinds of problems are endemic when
using ad hoc calling conventions.  It is therefore best to treat any
file compiled with ad hoc calling conventions as an isolated
environment and avoid things like profiling or coverage analysis,
since those subsystems assume a "normal" calling conventions.

This patch avoids the bug by excluding lib/hweight.o from coverage
profiling.

Kees Cook 3e2a4c183a test: check copy_to/from_user boundary validation
To help avoid an architecture failing to correctly check kernel/user
boundaries when handling copy_to_user, copy_from_user, put_user, or
get_user, perform some simple tests and fail to load if any of them
behave unexpectedly.

Specifically, this is to make sure there is a way to notice if things
like what was fixed in commit 8404663f81 ("ARM: 7527/1: uaccess:
explicitly check __user pointer when !CPU_USE_DOMAINS") ever regresses
again, for any architecture.

Additionally, adds new "user" selftest target, which loads this module.

Kees Cook 93e9ef83f4 test: add minimal module for verification testing
This is a pair of test modules I'd like to see in the tree.  Instead of
putting these in lkdtm, where I've been adding various tests that trigger
crashes, these don't make sense there since they need to be either
distinctly separate, or their pass/fail state don't need to crash the
machine.

These live in lib/ for now, along with a few other in-kernel test modules,
and use the slightly more common "test_" naming convention, instead of
"test-".  We should likely standardize on the former:

$ find . -name 'test_*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l
4
$ find . -name 'test-*.c' | grep -v /tools/ | wc -l
2

The first is entirely a no-op module, designed to allow simple testing of
the module loading and verification interface.  It's useful to have a
module that has no other uses or dependencies so it can be reliably used
for just testing module loading and verification.

The second is a module that exercises the user memory access functions, in
an effort to make sure that we can quickly catch any regressions in
boundary checking (e.g.  like what was recently fixed on ARM).

This patch (of 2):

When doing module loading verification tests (for example, with module
signing, or LSM hooks), it is very handy to have a module that can be
built on all systems under test, isn't auto-loaded at boot, and has no
device or similar dependencies.  This creates the "test_module.ko" module
for that purpose, which only reports its load and unload to printk.

Francesco Fusco 71ae8aac3e lib: introduce arch optimized hash library
We introduce a new hashing library that is meant to be used in
the contexts where speed is more important than uniformity of the
hashed values. The hash library leverages architecture specific
implementation to achieve high performance and fall backs to
jhash() for the generic case.

On Intel-based x86 architectures, the library can exploit the crc32l
instruction, part of the Intel SSE4.2 instruction set, if the
instruction is supported by the processor. This implementation
is twice as fast as the jhash() implementation on an i7 processor.

Additional architectures, such as Arm64 provide instructions for
accelerating the computation of CRC, so they could be added as well
in follow-up work.

Pull security subsystem updates from James Morris:
 "In this patchset, we finally get an SELinux update, with Paul Moore
  taking over as maintainer of that code.

  Also a significant update for the Keys subsystem, as well as
  maintenance updates to Smack, IMA, TPM, and Apparmor"

and since I wanted to know more about the updates to key handling,
here's the explanation from David Howells on that:

 "Okay.  There are a number of separate bits.  I'll go over the big bits
  and the odd important other bit, most of the smaller bits are just
  fixes and cleanups.  If you want the small bits accounting for, I can
  do that too.

   (1) Keyring capacity expansion.

        KEYS: Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for key access
        KEYS: Introduce a search context structure
        KEYS: Search for auth-key by name rather than target key ID
        Add a generic associative array implementation.
        KEYS: Expand the capacity of a keyring

     Several of the patches are providing an expansion of the capacity of a
     keyring.  Currently, the maximum size of a keyring payload is one page.
     Subtract a small header and then divide up into pointers, that only gives
     you ~500 pointers on an x86_64 box.  However, since the NFS idmapper uses
     a keyring to store ID mapping data, that has proven to be insufficient to
     the cause.

     Whatever data structure I use to handle the keyring payload, it can only
     store pointers to keys, not the keys themselves because several keyrings
     may point to a single key.  This precludes inserting, say, and rb_node
     struct into the key struct for this purpose.

     I could make an rbtree of records such that each record has an rb_node
     and a key pointer, but that would use four words of space per key stored
     in the keyring.  It would, however, be able to use much existing code.

     I selected instead a non-rebalancing radix-tree type approach as that
     could have a better space-used/key-pointer ratio.  I could have used the
     radix tree implementation that we already have and insert keys into it by
     their serial numbers, but that means any sort of search must iterate over
     the whole radix tree.  Further, its nodes are a bit on the capacious side
     for what I want - especially given that key serial numbers are randomly
     allocated, thus leaving a lot of empty space in the tree.

     So what I have is an associative array that internally is a radix-tree
     with 16 pointers per node where the index key is constructed from the key
     type pointer and the key description.  This means that an exact lookup by
     type+description is very fast as this tells us how to navigate directly to
     the target key.

     I made the data structure general in lib/assoc_array.c as far as it is
     concerned, its index key is just a sequence of bits that leads to a
     pointer.  It's possible that someone else will be able to make use of it
     also.  FS-Cache might, for example.

   (2) Mark keys as 'trusted' and keyrings as 'trusted only'.

        KEYS: verify a certificate is signed by a 'trusted' key
        KEYS: Make the system 'trusted' keyring viewable by userspace
        KEYS: Add a 'trusted' flag and a 'trusted only' flag
        KEYS: Separate the kernel signature checking keyring from module signing

     These patches allow keys carrying asymmetric public keys to be marked as
     being 'trusted' and allow keyrings to be marked as only permitting the
     addition or linkage of trusted keys.

     Keys loaded from hardware during kernel boot or compiled into the kernel
     during build are marked as being trusted automatically.  New keys can be
     loaded at runtime with add_key().  They are checked against the system
     keyring contents and if their signatures can be validated with keys that
     are already marked trusted, then they are marked trusted also and can
     thus be added into the master keyring.

     Patches from Mimi Zohar make this usable with the IMA keyrings also.

   (3) Remove the date checks on the key used to validate a module signature.

        X.509: Remove certificate date checks

     It's not reasonable to reject a signature just because the key that it was
     generated with is no longer valid datewise - especially if the kernel
     hasn't yet managed to set the system clock when the first module is
     loaded - so just remove those checks.

   (4) Make it simpler to deal with additional X.509 being loaded into the kernel.

        KEYS: Load *.x509 files into kernel keyring
        KEYS: Have make canonicalise the paths of the X.509 certs better to deduplicate

     The builder of the kernel now just places files with the extension ".x509"
     into the kernel source or build trees and they're concatenated by the
     kernel build and stuffed into the appropriate section.

   (5) Add support for userspace kerberos to use keyrings.

        KEYS: Add per-user_namespace registers for persistent per-UID kerberos caches
        KEYS: Implement a big key type that can save to tmpfs

     Fedora went to, by default, storing kerberos tickets and tokens in tmpfs.
     We looked at storing it in keyrings instead as that confers certain
     advantages such as tickets being automatically deleted after a certain
     amount of time and the ability for the kernel to get at these tokens more
     easily.

     To make this work, two things were needed:

     (a) A way for the tickets to persist beyond the lifetime of all a user's
         sessions so that cron-driven processes can still use them.

         The problem is that a user's session keyrings are deleted when the
         session that spawned them logs out and the user's user keyring is
         deleted when the UID is deleted (typically when the last log out
         happens), so neither of these places is suitable.

         I've added a system keyring into which a 'persistent' keyring is
         created for each UID on request.  Each time a user requests their
         persistent keyring, the expiry time on it is set anew.  If the user
         doesn't ask for it for, say, three days, the keyring is automatically
         expired and garbage collected using the existing gc.  All the kerberos
         tokens it held are then also gc'd.

     (b) A key type that can hold really big tickets (up to 1MB in size).

         The problem is that Active Directory can return huge tickets with lots
         of auxiliary data attached.  We don't, however, want to eat up huge
         tracts of unswappable kernel space for this, so if the ticket is
         greater than a certain size, we create a swappable shmem file and dump
         the contents in there and just live with the fact we then have an
         inode and a dentry overhead.  If the ticket is smaller than that, we
         slap it in a kmalloc()'d buffer"

David Howells 3cb989501c Add a generic associative array implementation.
Add a generic associative array implementation that can be used as the
container for keyrings, thereby massively increasing the capacity available
whilst also speeding up searching in keyrings that contain a lot of keys.

This may also be useful in FS-Cache for tracking cookies.

Documentation is added into Documentation/associative_array.txt

Some of the properties of the implementation are:

 (1) Objects are opaque pointers.  The implementation does not care where they
     point (if anywhere) or what they point to (if anything).

     [!] NOTE: Pointers to objects _must_ be zero in the two least significant
     	       bits.

 (2) Objects do not need to contain linkage blocks for use by the array.  This
     permits an object to be located in multiple arrays simultaneously.
     Rather, the array is made up of metadata blocks that point to objects.

 (3) Objects are labelled as being one of two types (the type is a bool value).
     This information is stored in the array, but has no consequence to the
     array itself or its algorithms.

 (4) Objects require index keys to locate them within the array.

 (5) Index keys must be unique.  Inserting an object with the same key as one
     already in the array will replace the old object.

 (6) Index keys can be of any length and can be of different lengths.

 (7) Index keys should encode the length early on, before any variation due to
     length is seen.

 (8) Index keys can include a hash to scatter objects throughout the array.

 (9) The array can iterated over.  The objects will not necessarily come out in
     key order.

(10) The array can be iterated whilst it is being modified, provided the RCU
     readlock is being held by the iterator.  Note, however, under these
     circumstances, some objects may be seen more than once.  If this is a
     problem, the iterator should lock against modification.  Objects will not
     be missed, however, unless deleted.

(11) Objects in the array can be looked up by means of their index key.

(12) Objects can be looked up whilst the array is being modified, provided the
     RCU readlock is being held by the thread doing the look up.

The implementation uses a tree of 16-pointer nodes internally that are indexed
on each level by nibbles from the index key.  To improve memory efficiency,
shortcuts can be emplaced to skip over what would otherwise be a series of
single-occupancy nodes.  Further, nodes pack leaf object pointers into spare
space in the node rather than making an extra branch until as such time an
object needs to be added to a full node.

Linus Torvalds 48efe453e6 Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending
Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Lots of activity again this round for I/O performance optimizations
  (per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for vhost + iscsi/target), and the
  addition of new fabric independent features to target-core
  (COMPARE_AND_WRITE + EXTENDED_COPY).

  The main highlights include:

   - Support for iscsi-target login multiplexing across individual
     network portals
   - Generic Per-cpu IDA logic (kent + akpm + clameter)
   - Conversion of vhost to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for
     descriptors, SGLs and userspace page pointer list
   - Conversion of iscsi-target + iser-target to use per-cpu IDA
     pre-allocation for descriptors
   - Add support for generic COMPARE_AND_WRITE (AtomicTestandSet)
     emulation for virtual backend drivers
   - Add support for generic EXTENDED_COPY (CopyOffload) emulation for
     virtual backend drivers.
   - Add support for fast memory registration mode to iser-target (Vu)

  The patches to add COMPARE_AND_WRITE and EXTENDED_COPY support are of
  particular significance, which make us the first and only open source
  target to support the full set of VAAI primitives.

  Currently Linux clients are lacking upstream support to actually
  utilize these primitives.  However, with server side support now in
  place for folks like MKP + ZAB working on the client, this logic once
  reserved for the highest end of storage arrays, can now be run in VMs
  on their laptops"

Kent Overstreet 798ab48eec idr: Percpu ida
Percpu frontend for allocating ids. With percpu allocation (that works),
it's impossible to guarantee it will always be possible to allocate all
nr_tags - typically, some will be stuck on a remote percpu freelist
where the current job can't get to them.

We do guarantee that it will always be possible to allocate at least
(nr_tags / 2) tags - this is done by keeping track of which and how many
cpus have tags on their percpu freelists. On allocation failure if
enough cpus have tags that there could potentially be (nr_tags / 2) tags
stuck on remote percpu freelists, we then pick a remote cpu at random to
steal from.

Note that there's no cpu hotplug notifier - we don't care, because
steal_tags() will eventually get the down cpu's tags. We _could_ satisfy
more allocations if we had a notifier - but we'll still meet our
guarantees and it's absolutely not a correctness issue, so I don't think
it's worth the extra code.

From akpm:

    "It looks OK to me (that's as close as I get to an ack :))

v6 changes:
  - Add #include <linux/cpumask.h> to include/linux/percpu_ida.h to
    make alpha/arc builds happy (Fengguang)
  - Move second (cpu >= nr_cpu_ids) check inside of first check scope
    in steal_tags() (akpm + nab)

v5 changes:
  - Change percpu_ida->cpus_have_tags to cpumask_t (kmo + akpm)
  - Add comment for percpu_ida_cpu->lock + ->nr_free (kmo + akpm)
  - Convert steal_tags() to use cpumask_weight() + cpumask_next() +
    cpumask_first() + cpumask_clear_cpu() (kmo + akpm)
  - Add comment for alloc_global_tags() (kmo + akpm)
  - Convert percpu_ida_alloc() to use cpumask_set_cpu() (kmo + akpm)
  - Convert percpu_ida_free() to use cpumask_set_cpu() (kmo + akpm)
  - Drop percpu_ida->cpus_have_tags allocation in percpu_ida_init()
    (kmo + akpm)
  - Drop percpu_ida->cpus_have_tags kfree in percpu_ida_destroy()
    (kmo + akpm)
  - Add comment for percpu_ida_alloc @ gfp (kmo + akpm)
  - Move to percpu_ida.c + percpu_ida.h (kmo + akpm + nab)

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.

Kent Overstreet 215e262f2a percpu: implement generic percpu refcounting
This implements a refcount with similar semantics to
atomic_get()/atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu.

It also implements two stage shutdown, as we need it to tear down the
percpu counts.  Before dropping the initial refcount, you must call
percpu_ref_kill(); this puts the refcount in "shutting down mode" and
switches back to a single atomic refcount with the appropriate
barriers (synchronize_rcu()).

It's also legal to call percpu_ref_kill() multiple times - it only
returns true once, so callers don't have to reimplement shutdown
synchronization.

Stephen Boyd 446f24d119 Kconfig: consolidate CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS
The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
s390 Kconfig.debug files.  Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.

To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
this config.

Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
warnings vs.  ones which emit errors.  The details of how an
architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.

While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

Andy Shevchenko 16c7fa0582 lib/string_helpers: introduce generic string_unescape
There are several places in kernel where modules unescapes input to convert
C-Style Escape Sequences into byte codes.

The patch provides generic implementation of such approach. Test cases are
also included into the patch.

Matthew Garrett 0635eb8a54 Move utf16 functions to kernel core and rename
We want to be able to use the utf16 functions that are currently present
in the EFI variables code in platform-specific code as well. Move them to
the kernel core, and in the process rename them to accurately describe what
they do - they don't handle UTF16, only UCS2.
