83762cb5c7 dax: Kill DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT
The /sys/class/dax compatibility option has shipped in the kernel for 4
years now which should be sufficient time for tools to abandon the old
ABI in favor of the /sys/bus/dax device-model. Delete it now and see if
anyone screams.

Since this compatibility option shipped there has been more reports of
users being surprised by the compat ABI than surprised by the "new", so
the compat infrastructure has outlived its usefulness. Recall that
/sys/bus/dax device-model is required for the dax kmem driver which
allows PMEM to be used as "System RAM".

The following projects were known to have a dependency on /sys/class/dax
and have dropped their dependency as of the listed version:

- ndctl (including libndctl, daxctl, and libdaxctl): v64+
- fio: v3.13+
- pmdk: v1.5.2+

As further evidence this option is no longer needed some distributions
have already stopped enabling CONFIG_DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT.

a16d8644ba Staging / IIO driver patches for 5.14-rc1
Here is the big set of IIO and staging driver patches for 5.14-rc1.
 
 Loads of IIO driver updates and additions in here, the shortlog has the
 full details.
 
 For the staging side, we moved a few drivers out of staging, and deleted
 the kpc2000 drivers as the original developer asked us to because no one
 was working on them anymore.
 
 Also in here are loads of coding style cleanups due to different intern
 projects focusing on the staging tree to try to get experience doing
 kernel development.
 
 All of these have been in the linux-next tree for a while with no
 reported problems.

233a806b00 This was a reasonably active cycle for documentation; this pull includes:
- Some kernel-doc cleanups.  That script is still regex onslaught from
    hell, but it has gotten a little better.
 
  - Improvements to the checkpatch docs, which are also used by the tool
    itself.
 
  - A major update to the pathname lookup documentation.
 
  - Elimination of :doc: markup, since our automarkup magic can create
    references from filenames without all the extra noise.
 
  - The flurry of Chinese translation activity continues.
 
 Plus, of course, the usual collection of updates, typo fixes, and warning

caf0fb3bb3 iio: Documentation: move incompatible ABI to obsolete
Commit 63cd35f34d ("iio: Documentation: update definitions for bufferY and scan_elements")
updated iio documentation in order to point to the newly
per-buffer API, as it is now possible to support multi buffers.

While the previous ABI will be kept forever, the best is
for applications to use the 5.11+ ABI. So, move the
legacy one ABI/obsolete.

This fixes an issue with scripts/get_abi.pl, that doesn't
accept two different Kernel version support for the same
API set.

- Rework the system-wide PM driver flags to make them easier to
    understand and use and update their documentation (Rafael Wysocki,
    Alan Stern).
 
  - Allow cpuidle governors to be switched at run time regardless of
    the kernel configuration and update the related documentation
    accordingly (Hanjun Guo).
 
  - Improve the resume device handling in the user space hibernarion
    interface code (Domenico Andreoli).
 
  - Document the intel-speed-select sysfs interface (Srinivas
    Pandruvada).
 
  - Make the ACPI code handing suspend to idle print more debug
    messages to help diagnose issues with it (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix a helper routine in the cpufreq core and correct a typo in
    the struct cpufreq_driver kerneldoc comment (Rafael Wysocki, Wang
    Wenhu).
 
  - Update cpufreq drivers:
 
    * Make the intel_pstate driver start in the passive mode by
      default on systems without HWP (Rafael Wysocki).
 
    * Add i.MX7ULP support to the imx-cpufreq-dt driver and add
      i.MX7ULP to the cpufreq-dt-platdev blacklist (Peng Fan).
 
    * Convert the qoriq cpufreq driver to a platform one, make the
      platform code create a suitable device object for it and add
      platform dependencies to it (Mian Yousaf Kaukab, Geert
      Uytterhoeven).
 
    * Fix wrong compatible binding in the qcom driver (Ansuel Smith).
 
    * Build the omap driver by default for ARCH_OMAP2PLUS (Anders
      Roxell).
 
    * Add r8a7742 SoC support to the dt cpufreq driver (Lad Prabhakar).
 
  - Update cpuidle core and drivers:
 
    * Fix three reference count leaks in error code paths in the
      cpuidle core (Qiushi Wu).
 
    * Convert Qualcomm SPM to a generic cpuidle driver (Stephan
      Gerhold).
 
    * Fix up the execution order when entering a domain idle state in
      the PSCI driver (Ulf Hansson).
 
  - Fix a reference counting issue related to clock management and
    clean up two oddities in the PM-runtime framework (Rafael Wysocki,
    Andy Shevchenko).
 
  - Add ElkhartLake support to the Intel RAPL power capping driver
    and remove an unused local MSR definition from it (Jacob Pan,
    Sumeet Pawnikar).
 
  - Update devfreq core and drivers:
 
    * Replace strncpy() with strscpy() in the devfreq core and use
      lockdep asserts instead of manual checks for a locked mutex in
      it (Dmitry Osipenko, Krzysztof Kozlowski).
 
    * Add a generic imx bus scaling driver and make it register an
      interconnect device (Leonard Crestez, Gustavo A. R. Silva).
 
    * Make the cpufreq notifier in the tegra30 driver take boosting
      into account and delete an unuseful error message from that
      driver (Dmitry Osipenko, Markus Elfring).
 
  - Remove unneeded semicolon from the cpupower code (Zou Wei).

Merge tag 'pm-5.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These rework the system-wide PM driver flags, make runtime switching
  of cpuidle governors easier, improve the user space hibernation
  interface code, add intel-speed-select interface documentation, add
  more debug messages to the ACPI code handling suspend to idle, update
  the cpufreq core and drivers, fix a minor issue in the cpuidle core
  and update two cpuidle drivers, improve the PM-runtime framework,
  update the Intel RAPL power capping driver, update devfreq core and
  drivers, and clean up the cpupower utility.

  Specifics:

   - Rework the system-wide PM driver flags to make them easier to
     understand and use and update their documentation (Rafael Wysocki,
     Alan Stern).

   - Allow cpuidle governors to be switched at run time regardless of
     the kernel configuration and update the related documentation
     accordingly (Hanjun Guo).

   - Improve the resume device handling in the user space hibernarion
     interface code (Domenico Andreoli).

   - Document the intel-speed-select sysfs interface (Srinivas
     Pandruvada).

   - Make the ACPI code handing suspend to idle print more debug
     messages to help diagnose issues with it (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix a helper routine in the cpufreq core and correct a typo in the
     struct cpufreq_driver kerneldoc comment (Rafael Wysocki, Wang
     Wenhu).

   - Update cpufreq drivers:

      - Make the intel_pstate driver start in the passive mode by
        default on systems without HWP (Rafael Wysocki).

      - Add i.MX7ULP support to the imx-cpufreq-dt driver and add
        i.MX7ULP to the cpufreq-dt-platdev blacklist (Peng Fan).

      - Convert the qoriq cpufreq driver to a platform one, make the
        platform code create a suitable device object for it and add
        platform dependencies to it (Mian Yousaf Kaukab, Geert
        Uytterhoeven).

      - Fix wrong compatible binding in the qcom driver (Ansuel Smith).

      - Build the omap driver by default for ARCH_OMAP2PLUS (Anders
        Roxell).

      - Add r8a7742 SoC support to the dt cpufreq driver (Lad
        Prabhakar).

   - Update cpuidle core and drivers:

      - Fix three reference count leaks in error code paths in the
        cpuidle core (Qiushi Wu).

      - Convert Qualcomm SPM to a generic cpuidle driver (Stephan
        Gerhold).

      - Fix up the execution order when entering a domain idle state in
        the PSCI driver (Ulf Hansson).

   - Fix a reference counting issue related to clock management and
     clean up two oddities in the PM-runtime framework (Rafael Wysocki,
     Andy Shevchenko).

   - Add ElkhartLake support to the Intel RAPL power capping driver and
     remove an unused local MSR definition from it (Jacob Pan, Sumeet
     Pawnikar).

   - Update devfreq core and drivers:

      - Replace strncpy() with strscpy() in the devfreq core and use
        lockdep asserts instead of manual checks for a locked mutex in
        it (Dmitry Osipenko, Krzysztof Kozlowski).

      - Add a generic imx bus scaling driver and make it register an
        interconnect device (Leonard Crestez, Gustavo A. R. Silva).

      - Make the cpufreq notifier in the tegra30 driver take boosting
        into account and delete an unuseful error message from that
        driver (Dmitry Osipenko, Markus Elfring).

   - Remove unneeded semicolon from the cpupower code (Zou Wei)"

25f1ca31e2 platform/x86: intel_pmc_ipc: Convert to MFD
This driver only creates a bunch of platform devices sharing resources
belonging to the PMC device. This is pretty much what MFD subsystem is
for so move the driver there, renaming it to intel_pmc_bxt.c which
should be more clear what it is.

MFD subsystem provides nice helper APIs for subdevice creation so
convert the driver to use those. Unfortunately the ACPI device includes
separate resources for most of the subdevices so we cannot simply call
mfd_add_devices() to create all of them but instead we need to call it
separately for each device.

The new MFD driver continues to expose two sysfs attributes that allow
userspace to send IPC commands to the PMC/SCU to avoid breaking any
existing applications that may use these. Generally this is bad idea so
document this in the ABI documentation.

e9c38f9fc2 Documentation,selinux: deprecate setting checkreqprot to 1
Deprecate setting the SELinux checkreqprot tunable to 1 via kernel
parameter or /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot.  Setting it to 0 is left
intact for compatibility since Android and some Linux distributions
do so for security and treat an inability to set it as a fatal error.
Eventually setting it to 0 will become a no-op and the kernel will
stop using checkreqprot's value internally altogether.

checkreqprot was originally introduced as a compatibility mechanism
for legacy userspace and the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag.
However, if set to 1, it weakens security by allowing mappings to be
made executable without authorization by policy.  The default value
for the SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE config option was changed
from 1 to 0 in commit 2a35d196c1 ("selinux: change
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE default") and both Android
and Linux distributions began explicitly setting
/sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot to 0 some time ago.

89b223bfb8 selinux: deprecate disabling SELinux and runtime
Deprecate the CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE functionality.  The
code was originally developed to make it easier for Linux
distributions to support architectures where adding parameters to the
kernel command line was difficult.  Unfortunately, supporting runtime
disable meant we had to make some security trade-offs when it came to
the LSM hooks, as documented in the Kconfig help text:

  NOTE: selecting this option will disable the '__ro_after_init'
  kernel hardening feature for security hooks.   Please consider
  using the selinux=0 boot parameter instead of enabling this
  option.

Fortunately it looks as if that the original motivation for the
runtime disable functionality is gone, and Fedora/RHEL appears to be
the only major distribution enabling this capability at build time
so we are now taking steps to remove it entirely from the kernel.
The first step is to mark the functionality as deprecated and print
an error when it is used (what this patch is doing).  As Fedora/RHEL
makes progress in transitioning the distribution away from runtime
disable, we will introduce follow-up patches over several kernel
releases which will block for increasing periods of time when the
runtime disable is used.  Finally we will remove the option entirely
once we believe all users have moved to the kernel cmdline approach.

Linus Torvalds
6aa2f9441f This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:
CORE:
 - Fix the semantics of raw GPIO to actually be raw. No
   inversion semantics as before, but also no open draining,
   and allow the raw operations to affect lines used for
   interrupts as the caller supposedly knows what they are
   doing if they are getting the big hammer.
 
 - Rewrote the __inner_function() notation calls to names that
   make more sense. I just find this kind of code disturbing.
 
 - Drop the .irq_base() field from the gpiochip since now all
   IRQs are mapped dynamically. This is nice.
 
 - Support for .get_multiple() in the core driver API. This
   allows us to read several GPIO lines with a single
   register read. This has high value for some usecases: it
   can be used to create oscilloscopes and signal analyzers
   and other things that rely on reading several lines at
   exactly the same instant. Also a generally nice
   optimization. This uses the new assign_bit() macro from
   the bitops lib that was ACKed by Andrew Morton and
   is implemented for two drivers, one of them being the
   generic MMIO driver so everyone using that will be able
   to benefit from this.
 
 - Do not allow requests of Open Drain and Open Source
   setting of a GPIO line simultaneously. If the hardware
   actually supports enabling both at the same time the
   electrical result would be disastrous.
 
 - A new interrupt chip core helper. This will be helpful
   to deal with "banked" GPIOs, which means GPIO controllers
   with several logical blocks of GPIO inside them. This
   is several gpiochips per device in the device model, in
   contrast to the case when there is a 1-to-1 relationship
   between a device and a gpiochip.
 
 NEW DRIVERS:

Merge tag 'gpio-v4.15-1' of ssh://gitolite.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:

  Core:

   - Fix the semantics of raw GPIO to actually be raw. No inversion
     semantics as before, but also no open draining, and allow the raw
     operations to affect lines used for interrupts as the caller
     supposedly knows what they are doing if they are getting the big
     hammer.

   - Rewrote the __inner_function() notation calls to names that make
     more sense. I just find this kind of code disturbing.

   - Drop the .irq_base() field from the gpiochip since now all IRQs are
     mapped dynamically. This is nice.

   - Support for .get_multiple() in the core driver API. This allows us
     to read several GPIO lines with a single register read. This has
     high value for some usecases: it can be used to create
     oscilloscopes and signal analyzers and other things that rely on
     reading several lines at exactly the same instant. Also a generally
     nice optimization. This uses the new assign_bit() macro from the
     bitops lib that was ACKed by Andrew Morton and is implemented for
     two drivers, one of them being the generic MMIO driver so everyone
     using that will be able to benefit from this.

   - Do not allow requests of Open Drain and Open Source setting of a
     GPIO line simultaneously. If the hardware actually supports
     enabling both at the same time the electrical result would be
     disastrous.

   - A new interrupt chip core helper. This will be helpful to deal with
     "banked" GPIOs, which means GPIO controllers with several logical
     blocks of GPIO inside them. This is several gpiochips per device in
     the device model, in contrast to the case when there is a 1-to-1
     relationship between a device and a gpiochip.

  New drivers:

   - Maxim MAX3191x industrial serializer, a very interesting piece of
     professional I/O hardware.

   - Uniphier GPIO driver. This is the GPIO block from the recent
     Socionext (ex Fujitsu and Panasonic) platform.

   - Tegra 186 driver. This is based on the new banked GPIO
     infrastructure.

  Other improvements:

   - Some documentation improvements.

   - Wakeup support for the DesignWare DWAPB GPIO controller.

   - Reset line support on the DesignWare DWAPB GPIO controller.

   - Several non-critical bug fixes and improvements for the Broadcom
     BRCMSTB driver.

   - Misc non-critical bug fixes like exotic errorpaths, removal of dead
     code etc.

   - Explicit comments on fall-through switch() statements"

ffc10d82ff ACPI / scan: Drop support for force_remove
/sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/force_remove was presumably added to support
auto offlining in the past. This is, however, inherently dangerous for
some hotplugable resources like memory. The memory offlining fails when
the memory is still in use and cannot be dropped or migrated. If we
ignore the failure we are basically allowing for subtle memory
corruption or a crash.

We have actually noticed the later while hitting BUG() during the memory
hotremove (remove_memory):
	ret = walk_memory_range(PFN_DOWN(start), PFN_UP(start + size - 1), NULL,
			check_memblock_offlined_cb);
	if (ret)
		BUG();

it took us quite non-trivial time realize that the customer had
force_remove enabled. Even if the BUG was removed here and we could
propagate the error up the call chain it wouldn't help at all because
then we would hit a crash or a memory corruption later and harder to
debug. So force_remove is unfixable for the memory hotremove. We haven't
checked other hotplugable resources to be prone to a similar problems.

Remove the force_remove functionality because it is not fixable currently.
Keep the sysfs file and report an error if somebody tries to enable it.
Encourage users to report about the missing functionality and work with
them with an alternative solution.

c87d1655c2 zram: remove obsolete sysfs attrs
We had a deprecated_attr_warn() warning for 2 years and now the time has
come and we finally can do the cleanup.

The plan was as follows:

: per-stat sysfs attributes are considered to be deprecated.
: The basic strategy is:
: -- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in linux 4.11)
: -- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in linux 4.11)
:
: The list of deprecated attributes can be found here:
: Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram
:
: Basically, every attribute that has its own read accessible sysfs
: node (e.g. num_reads) *AND* is accessible via one of the stat files
: (zram<id>/stat or zram<id>/io_stat or zram<id>/mm_stat) is considered
: to be deprecated.

The patch also removes `obsolete/sysfs-block-zram', clean ups
`testing/sysfs-block-zram' and tweaks zram.txt files.

   1) Support more Realtek wireless chips, from Jes Sorenson.

   2) New BPF types for per-cpu hash and arrap maps, from Alexei
      Starovoitov.

   3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov.

   4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing
   of incoming TCP/UDP connections.  The muxing can be done using a
   BPF program which hashes the incoming packet.  From Craig Gallek.

   5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based
      interface.  BPF programs can be used to determine the message
      boundaries.  From Tom Herbert.

   6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca.

   7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface
      with lots of configured addresses.  We were doing things like
      traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and
      flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as
      well.

   8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer.

   9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for
      ixgbe, from John Fastabend.

  10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis,
      from Kan Liang.

  11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported.
      From David Decotigny.

  12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types
      (ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device
      level attributes as a whole.  From Jiri Pirko.

  13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai.

  14) Add "Local Checksum Offload".  Basically, for a tunneled packet
      the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the
      checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload
      of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage
      of that in various ways.  From Edward Cree"
