Linus Torvalds e10abc629f TTY and Serial driver update for 4.7-rc1
Here's the large TTY and Serial driver update for 4.7-rc1.
 
 A few new serial drivers are added here, and Peter has fixed a bunch of
 long-standing bugs in the tty layer and serial drivers as normal.  Full
 details in the shortlog.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

Vitaly Kuznetsov 86dd995d63 memory_hotplug: introduce memhp_default_state= command line parameter
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE specifies the default value for the
memory hotplug onlining policy.  Add a command line parameter to make it
possible to override the default.  It may come handy for debug and
testing purposes.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.

  To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
  governor.  Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
  since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
  ones).

  There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
  First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
  making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
  Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
  performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
  executed in process context or similar.  Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
  driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
  is used on a large number of systems.

  The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
  regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
  scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
  progress on top of it already).  Nevertheless it works and the
  preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.

  There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
  platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
  driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
  device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
  code any more.  Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
  generic mechanism.

  In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
  CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
  provided via the ACPI _PPC object.

  The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
  subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
  rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.

  The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
  intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
  a number of places.

  Specifics:

   - New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
     utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
     switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
     supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
     acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Consolidation of CPU frequency management on ARM platforms allowing
     them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they
     are going to use the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh Kumar, Finley Xiao,
     Marc Gonzalez)

   - Support for ACPI _PPC and CPU frequency limits in the intel_pstate
     driver (Srinivas Pandruvada)

Srinivas Pandruvada 9522a2ff9c cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enforce _PPC limits
Use ACPI _PPC notification to limit max P state driver will request.
ACPI _PPC change notification is sent by BIOS to limit max P state
in several cases:
- Reduce impact of platform thermal condition
- When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to
follow TDP change
- Remote node managers in server want to control platform power
via baseboard management controller (BMC)

This change registers with ACPI processor performance lib so that
_PPC changes are notified to cpufreq core, which in turns will
result in call to .setpolicy() callback. Also the way _PSS
table identifies a turbo frequency is not compatible to max turbo
frequency in intel_pstate, so the very first entry in _PSS needs
to be adjusted.

This feature can be turned on by using kernel parameters:
intel_pstate=support_acpi_ppc

Ard Biesheuvel 6a1f547114 arm64: acpi: add acpi=on cmdline option to prefer ACPI boot over DT
If both ACPI and DT platform descriptions are available, and the
kernel was configured at build time to support both flavours, the
default policy is to prefer DT over ACPI, and preferring ACPI over
DT while still allowing DT as a fallback is not possible.

Since some enterprise features (such as RAS) depend on ACPI, it may
be desirable for, e.g., distro installers to prefer ACPI boot but
fall back to DT rather than failing completely if no ACPI tables are
available.

So introduce the 'acpi=on' kernel command line parameter for arm64,
which signifies that ACPI should be used if available, and DT should
only be used as a fallback.

Since the IXP2000 ARM platforms support has been removed from the
kernel in commit:

commit c65f2abf54 ("ARM: remove ixp23xx and ixp2000 platforms")

its platforms specific kernel parameters should be removed
too from the kernel documentation along with the kernel code

Alex Thorlton 1c532e00a0 x86/platform/uv: Disable UV BAU by default
For several years, the common practice has been to boot UVs with the
"nobau" parameter on the command line, to disable the BAU.  We've
decided that it makes more sense to just disable the BAU by default in
the kernel, and provide the option to turn it on, if desired.

For now, having the on/off switch doesn't buy us any more than just
reversing the logic would, but we're working towards having the BAU
enabled by default on UV4.  When those changes are in place, having the
on/off switch will make more sense than an enable flag, since the
default behavior will be different depending on the system version.

I've also added a bit of documentation for the new parameter to
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.

Linus Torvalds 643ad15d47 Merge branch 'mm-pkeys-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
  that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).

  There's a background article at LWN.net:

      https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/

  The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
  user-controllable permission masks in the pte.  So instead of having a
  fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
  and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
  protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
  cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
  virtual memory range.

  This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
  amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions.  It also
  allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
  executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
  below).

  This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
  that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
  if a user-space application calls:

        mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);

  or

        mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);

  (note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
  this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
  memory range.  It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
  Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
  and unwritable.

  So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
  PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
  PROT_READ as well.  Unreadable executable mappings have security
  advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
  ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
  cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.

  We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
  mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
  feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.

  There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
  call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
  pull request.

  Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
  (CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
  (like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
  overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment.  If there's
  any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
  flip the default"

Linus Torvalds 6b5f04b6cf Merge branch 'for-4.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "cgroup changes for v4.6-rc1.  No userland visible behavior changes in
  this pull request.  I'll send out a separate pull request for the
  addition of cgroup namespace support.

   - The biggest change is the revamping of cgroup core task migration
     and controller handling logic.  There are quite a few places where
     controllers and tasks are manipulated.  Previously, many of those
     places implemented custom operations for each specific use case
     assuming specific starting conditions.  While this worked, it makes
     the code fragile and difficult to follow.

     The bulk of this pull request restructures these operations so that
     most related operations are performed through common helpers which
     implement recursive (subtrees are always processed consistently)
     and idempotent (they make cgroup hierarchy converge to the target
     state rather than performing operations assuming specific starting
     conditions).  This makes the code a lot easier to understand,
     verify and extend.

   - Implicit controller support is added.  This is primarily for using
     perf_event on the v2 hierarchy so that perf can match cgroup v2
     path without requiring the user to do anything special.  The kernel
     portion of perf_event changes is acked but userland changes are
     still pending review.

   - cgroup_no_v1= boot parameter added to ease testing cgroup v2 in
     certain environments.

   - There is a regression introduced during v4.4 devel cycle where
     attempts to migrate zombie tasks can mess up internal object
     management.  This was fixed earlier this week and included in this
     pull request w/ stable cc'd.

   - Misc non-critical fixes and improvements"

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This time the majority of changes go into cpufreq and they are
  significant.

  First off, the way CPU frequency updates are triggered is different
  now.  Instead of having to set up and manage a deferrable timer for
  each CPU in the system to evaluate and possibly change its frequency
  periodically, cpufreq governors set up callbacks to be invoked by the
  scheduler on a regular basis (basically on utilization updates).  The
  "old" governors, "ondemand" and "conservative", still do all of their
  work in process context (although that is triggered by the scheduler
  now), but intel_pstate does it all in the callback invoked by the
  scheduler with no need for any additional asynchronous processing.

  Of course, this eliminates the overhead related to the management of
  all those timers, but also it allows the cpufreq governor code to be
  simplified quite a bit.  On top of that, the common code and data
  structures used by the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors are
  cleaned up and made more straightforward and some long-standing and
  quite annoying problems are addressed.  In particular, the handling of
  governor sysfs attributes is modified and the related locking becomes
  more fine grained which allows some concurrency problems to be avoided
  (particularly deadlocks with the core cpufreq code).

  In principle, the new mechanism for triggering frequency updates
  allows utilization information to be passed from the scheduler to
  cpufreq.  Although the current code doesn't make use of it, in the
  works is a new cpufreq governor that will make decisions based on the
  scheduler's utilization data.  That should allow the scheduler and
  cpufreq to work more closely together in the long run.

  In addition to the core and governor changes, cpufreq drivers are
  updated too.  Fixes and optimizations go into intel_pstate, the
  cpufreq-dt driver is updated on top of some modification in the
  Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework and there are fixes and
  other updates in the powernv cpufreq driver.

  Apart from the cpufreq updates there is some new ACPICA material,
  including a fix for a problem introduced by previous ACPICA updates,
  and some less significant changes in the ACPI code, like CPPC code
  optimizations, ACPI processor driver cleanups and support for loading
  ACPI tables from initrd.

  Also updated are the generic power domains framework, the Intel RAPL
  power capping driver and the turbostat utility and we have a bunch of
  traditional assorted fixes and cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Redesign of cpufreq governors and the intel_pstate driver to make
     them use callbacks invoked by the scheduler to trigger CPU
     frequency evaluation instead of using per-CPU deferrable timers for
     that purpose (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Reorganization and cleanup of cpufreq governor code to make it more
     straightforward and fix some concurrency problems in it (Rafael
     Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).

   - Cleanup and improvements of locking in the cpufreq core (Viresh
     Kumar).

   - Assorted cleanups in the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh
     Kumar, Eric Biggers).

   - intel_pstate driver updates including fixes, optimizations and a
     modification to make it enable enable hardware-coordinated P-state
     selection (HWP) by default if supported by the processor (Philippe
     Longepe, Srinivas Pandruvada, Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar, Felipe
     Franciosi).

   - Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework updates to improve its
     handling of voltage regulators and device clocks and updates of the
     cpufreq-dt driver on top of that (Viresh Kumar, Jon Hunter).

   - Updates of the powernv cpufreq driver to fix initialization and
     cleanup problems in it and correct its worker thread handling with
     respect to CPU offline, new powernv_throttle tracepoint (Shilpasri
     Bhat).

   - ACPI cpufreq driver optimization and cleanup (Rafael Wysocki).

   - ACPICA updates including one fix for a regression introduced by
     previos changes in the ACPICA code (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, David Box,
     Colin Ian King).

   - Support for installing ACPI tables from initrd (Lv Zheng).

   - Optimizations of the ACPI CPPC code (Prashanth Prakash, Ashwin
     Chaugule).

   - Support for _HID(ACPI0010) devices (ACPI processor containers) and
     ACPI processor driver cleanups (Sudeep Holla).

   - Support for ACPI-based enumeration of the AMBA bus (Graeme Gregory,
     Aleksey Makarov).

   - Modification of the ACPI PCI IRQ management code to make it treat
     255 in the Interrupt Line register as "not connected" on x86 (as
     per the specification) and avoid attempts to use that value as a
     valid interrupt vector (Chen Fan).

   - ACPI APEI fixes related to resource leaks (Josh Hunt).

   - Removal of modularity from a few ACPI drivers (BGRT, GHES,
     intel_pmic_crc) that cannot be built as modules in practice (Paul
     Gortmaker).

   - PNP framework update to make it treat ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_SERIAL_BUS
     as a valid resource type (Harb Abdulhamid).

   - New device ID (future AMD I2C controller) in the ACPI driver for
     AMD SoCs (APD) and in the designware I2C driver (Xiangliang Yu).

   - Assorted ACPI cleanups (Colin Ian King, Kaiyen Chang, Oleg Drokin).

   - cpuidle menu governor optimization to avoid a square root
     computation in it (Rasmus Villemoes).

   - Fix for potential use-after-free in the generic device properties
     framework (Heikki Krogerus).

   - Updates of the generic power domains (genpd) framework including
     support for multiple power states of a domain, fixes and debugfs
     output improvements (Axel Haslam, Jon Hunter, Laurent Pinchart,
     Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - Intel RAPL power capping driver updates to reduce IPI overhead in
     it (Jacob Pan).

   - System suspend/hibernation code cleanups (Eric Biggers, Saurabh
     Sengar).

   - Year 2038 fix for the process freezer (Abhilash Jindal).

   - turbostat utility updates including new features (decoding of more
     registers and CPUID fields, sub-second intervals support, GFX MHz
     and RC6 printout, --out command line option), fixes (syscall jitter
     detection and workaround, reductioin of the number of syscalls
     made, fixes related to Xeon x200 processors, compiler warning
     fixes) and cleanups (Len Brown, Hubert Chrzaniuk, Chen Yu)"

Laura Abbott 8823b1dbc0 mm/page_poison.c: enable PAGE_POISONING as a separate option
Page poisoning is currently set up as a feature if architectures don't
have architecture debug page_alloc to allow unmapping of pages.  It has
uses apart from that though.  Clearing of the pages on free provides an
increase in security as it helps to limit the risk of information leaks.
Allow page poisoning to be enabled as a separate option independent of
kernel_map pages since the two features do separate work.  Because of
how hiberanation is implemented, the checks on alloc cannot occur if
hibernation is enabled.  The runtime alloc checks can also be enabled
with an option when !HIBERNATION.

Heiko Stuebner 605df8af33 phy: rockchip-usb: add handler for usb-uart functionality
Most newer Rockchip SoCs provide the possibility to use a usb-phy
as passthrough for the debug uart (uart2), making it possible to
for example get console output without needing to open the device.

This patch adds an early_initcall to enable this functionality
conditionally via the commandline and also disables the corresponding
usb controller in the devicetree.

Currently only data for the rk3288 is provided, but at least the
rk3188 and arm64 rk3368 also provide this functionality and will be
enabled later.

On a spliced usb cable the signals are tx on white wire(D+) and
rx on green wire(D-).

The one caveat is that currently the reconfiguration of the phy
happens as early_initcall, as the code depends on the unflattened
devicetree being available. Everything is fine if only a regular
console is active as the console-replay will happen after the
reconfiguation. But with earlycon active output up to smp-init
currently will get lost.

The phy is an optional property for the connected dwc2 controller,
so we still provide the phy device but fail all phy-ops with -EBUSY
to make sure the dwc2 does not try to transmit anything on the
repurposed phy.

Kees Cook d2aa1acad2 mm/init: Add 'rodata=off' boot cmdline parameter to disable read-only kernel mappings
It may be useful to debug writes to the readonly sections of memory,
so provide a cmdline "rodata=off" to allow for this. This can be
expanded in the future to support "log" and "write" modes, but that
will need to be architecture-specific.

This also makes KDB software breakpoints more usable, as read-only
mappings can now be disabled on any kernel.

Dave Hansen 0697694564 x86/mm/pkeys: Actually enable Memory Protection Keys in the CPU
This sets the bit in 'cr4' to actually enable the protection
keys feature.  We also include a boot-time disable for the
feature "nopku".

Seting X86_CR4_PKE will cause the X86_FEATURE_OSPKE cpuid
bit to appear set.  At this point in boot, identify_cpu()
has already run the actual CPUID instructions and populated
the "cpu features" structures.  We need to go back and
re-run identify_cpu() to make sure it gets updated values.

We *could* simply re-populate the 11th word of the cpuid
data, but this is probably quick enough.

Also note that with the cpu_has() check and X86_FEATURE_PKU
present in disabled-features.h, we do not need an #ifdef
for setup_pku().
