As mentioned in commit afe4fd0624 ("pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet
scheduler"), this patch adds a new socket option.
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE offers the application the ability to cap the
rate computed by transport layer. Value is in bytes per second.
u32 val = 1000000;
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_MAX_PACING_RATE, &val, sizeof(val));
To be effectively paced, a flow must use FQ packet scheduler.
Note that a packet scheduler takes into account the headers for its
computations. The effective payload rate depends on MSS and retransmits
if any.
I chose to make this pacing rate a SOL_SOCKET option instead of a
TCP one because this can be used by other protocols.

This round the updates contain:
* A new driver for the Freescale PAMU IOMMU from Varun Sethi.
This driver has cooked for a while and required changes to the
IOMMU-API and infrastructure that were already merged before.
* Updates for the ARM-SMMU driver from Will Deacon
* Various fixes, the most important one is probably a fix from
Alex Williamson for a memory leak in the VT-d page-table
freeing code
In summary not all that much. The biggest part in the diffstat is the
new PAMU driver.

This branch contains mostly additions and changes to platform enablement
and SoC-level drivers. Since there's sometimes a dependency on device-tree
changes, there's also a fair amount of those in this branch.
Pieces worth mentioning are:
- Mbus driver for Marvell platforms, allowing kernel configuration
and resource allocation of on-chip peripherals.
- Enablement of the mbus infrastructure from Marvell PCI-e drivers.
- Preparation of MSI support for Marvell platforms.
- Addition of new PCI-e host controller driver for Tegra platforms
- Some churn caused by sharing of macro names between i.MX 6Q and 6DL
platforms in the device tree sources and header files.
- Various suspend/PM updates for Tegra, including LP1 support.
- Versatile Express support for MCPM, part of big little support.
- Allwinner platform support for A20 and A31 SoCs (dual and quad Cortex-A7)
- OMAP2+ support for DRA7, a new Cortex-A15-based SoC.
The code that touches other architectures are patches moving
MSI arch-specific functions over to weak symbols and removal of
ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI, acked by PCI maintainers.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
(--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities. Everyone

- Documentation updates:
. for perf_event_type, by Peter Zijlstra
Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
utilize the above kernel side changes):
- Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:
. Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
'perf record', by David Ahern.
. Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
one can do:
[root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]

far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.
- 'perf report/top' enhancements:
. Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
By Adrian Hunter.

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

It turns out that if we exit the guest due to a hcall instruction (sc 1),
and the loading of the instruction in the guest exit path fails for any
reason, the call to kvmppc_ld() in kvmppc_get_last_inst() fetches the
instruction after the hcall instruction rather than the hcall itself.
This in turn means that the instruction doesn't get recognized as an
hcall in kvmppc_handle_exit_pr() but gets passed to the guest kernel
as a sc instruction. That usually results in the guest kernel getting
a return code of 38 (ENOSYS) from an hcall, which often triggers a
BUG_ON() or other failure.
This fixes the problem by adding a new variant of kvmppc_get_last_inst()
called kvmppc_get_last_sc(), which fetches the instruction if necessary
from pc - 4 rather than pc.

On 64-bit, __pa(&static_var) gets miscompiled by recent versions of
gcc as something like:
addis 3,2,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@ha
addi 3,3,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@l
This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits
are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top
nibble. This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least.
To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator,
and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator. Using an AND
operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code
since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it
takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add
it on. (Note that MEMORY_START is always 0 on 64-bit.)

This patch moves the generalized implementation of of_get_cpu_node from
PowerPC to DT core library, thereby adding support for retrieving cpu
node for a given logical cpu index on any architecture.
The CPU subsystem can now use this function to assign of_node in the
cpu device while registering CPUs.
It is recommended to use these helper function only in pre-SMP/early
initialisation stages to retrieve CPU device node pointers in logical
ordering. Once the cpu devices are registered, it can be retrieved easily
from cpu device of_node which avoids unnecessary parsing and matching.

Some CPUs (such as e500v1/v2) don't implement mftb and will take a
trap. mfspr should work on everything that has a timebase, and is the
preferred instruction according to ISA v2.06.
Currently we get away with mftb on 85xx because the assembler converts
it to mfspr due to -Wa,-me500. However, that flag has other effects
that are undesireable for certain targets (e.g. lwsync is converted to
sync), and is hostile to multiplatform kernels. Thus we would like to
stop setting it for all e500-family builds.
mftb/mftbu instances which are in 85xx code or common code are
converted. Instances which will never run on 85xx are left alone.
Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com>
Erratum A-006598 says that 64-bit mftb is not atomic -- it's subject
to a similar race condition as doing mftbu/mftbl on 32-bit. The lower
half of timebase is updated before the upper half; thus, we can share
the workaround for a similar bug on Cell. This workaround involves
looping if the lower half of timebase is zero, thus avoiding the need
for a scratch register (other than CR0). This workaround must be
avoided when the timebase is frozen, such as during the timebase sync
code.
This deals with kernel and vdso accesses, but other userspace accesses
will of course need to be fixed elsewhere.

When we have MMU on exceptions (POWER8) and a relocatable kernel, we
need to branch from the initial exception vectors at 0x0 to up high
where the kernel might be located. Currently we do this using the link
register.
Unfortunately this corrupts the link stack and instead we should use the
count register. We did this for the syscall entry path in:
6a40480 powerpc: Avoid link stack corruption in MMU on syscall entry path
but I stupidly forgot to do the same for other exceptions.
This patch changes the initial exception vectors to use the count
register instead of the link register when we need to branch up to the
relocated kernel.
I have a dodgy userspace test which loops calling a function that reads
the PVR (mfpvr in userspace will be emulated by the kernel via the
program check exception). On POWER8 and with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, I
get a ~10% performance improvement with my userspace test with this

The udbg_16550 code, which we use for our early consoles and debug
backends was fairly messy. Especially for the debug consoles, it
would re-implement the "high level" getc/putc/poll functions for
each access method. It also had code to configure the UART but only
for the straight MMIO method.
This changes it to instead abstract at the register accessor level,
and have the various functions and configuration routines use these.
The result is simpler and slightly smaller code, and free support
for non-MMIO mapped PIO UARTs, which such as the ones that can be

We have a bunch of CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_* options that are intended
for bringup/debug only. They hard wire a machine specific udbg backend
very early on (before we even probe the platform), and use whatever
tricks are available on each machine/cpu to be able to get some kind
of output out there early on.
So far, on powermac with no serial ports, we have CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_BOOTX
to use the low-level btext engine on the screen, but it doesn't do much, at
least on 64-bit. It only really gets enabled after the platform has been
probed and the MMU enabled.
This adds a way to enable it much earlier. From prom_init.c (while still
running with Open Firmware), we grab the screen details and set things up
using the physical address of the frame buffer.
Then btext itself uses the "rm_ci" feature of the 970 processor (Real
Mode Cache Inhibited) to access it while in real mode.
We need to do a little bit of reorg of the btext code to inline things
better, in order to limit how much we touch memory while in this mode as
the consequences might be ... interesting.
This successfully allowed me to debug problems early on with the G5

Cell and PSeries both implemented their own versions of a
cpu_bootable smp_op which do the same thing (well, the PSeries
one has support for more than 2 threads). Copy the PSeries one
to generic code, and rename it smp_generic_cpu_bootable.
