RAS: Add a Corrected Errors Collector
Introduce a simple data structure for collecting correctable errors along with accessors. More detailed description in the code itself. The error decoding is done with the decoding chain now and mce_first_notifier() gets to see the error first and the CEC decides whether to log it and then the rest of the chain doesn't hear about it - basically the main reason for the CE collector - or to continue running the notifiers. When the CEC hits the action threshold, it will try to soft-offine the page containing the ECC and then the whole decoding chain gets to see the error.

There was some breakage with the changes for jump labels in the 4.11 merge
window. Namely powerpc broke as jump labels uses the two LSB bits as flags in initialization. A check was added to make sure that all jump label entries were 4 bytes aligned, but powerpc didn't work that way for modules. Adding an alignment in the module linker script appeared to be the best solution. Jump labels also added an anonymous union to access those LSB bits as a normal long. But because this structure had static initialization, it broke older compilers that could not statically initialize anonymous unions without brackets. The command line parameter for setting function graph filter broke the "EMPTY_HASH" descriptor by modifying it instead of creating a new hash to hold the entries. The command line parameter ftrace_graph_max_depth was added to allow its setting at boot time. It uses existing code and only the command line hook was added. This is not really a fix, but as it uses existing code without affecting anything else, I added it to this release. It was ready before the merge window closed, but I wanted to let it sit in linux-next for a couple of days first. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQExBAABCAAbBQJYvNrAFBxyb3N0ZWR0QGdvb2RtaXMub3JnAAoJEMm5BfJq2Y3L JGQIAMkayeZ0OCyYHRPR4EcCrdE3fATmt1huJWHrMPnT4/fLabL8XQqrOpnOBMq1 GFZb1SMkBmvGtAHF4GbvCxnIUfDQko6BTQAd8EMea1WM8+Kb66/BLgJawjWIU9I0 dNYre9ONgR2NOzkz6nfKRXnmy0lRcOweBb09YYGSzY11Md7d8T3T4TUrPNZdYrO9 8ZMbF4qRd9KLMRHcsWqvhWhBISxWnmtUSlthfweukKgDMy8OKpb7pR0ckjtYwsWX RF41jqLqzSUqtd/nE2Sj/aT8XOP4pfrKEUuNM4SBj8q5jmNcZuqi8Q9wItu3LWR2 jqM/9UKTzaCr9cchwuvUC0i+jWc= =kDql -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v4.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "There was some breakage with the changes for jump labels in the 4.11 merge window: - powerpc broke as jump labels uses the two LSB bits as flags in initialization.

cpufreq: Add the "cpufreq.off=1" cmdline option
Add the "cpufreq.off=1" cmdline option. At boot-time, this allows a user to request CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n behavior from a kernel built with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=y. This is analogous to the existing "cpuidle.off=1" option and CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y This capability is valuable when we need to debug end-user issues in the BIOS or in Linux. It is also convenient for enabling comparisons, which may otherwise require a new kernel, or help from BIOS SETUP, which may be buggy or unavailable.

slub: make sysfs directories for memcg sub-caches optional
SLUB creates a per-cache directory under /sys/kernel/slab which hosts a bunch of debug files. Usually, there aren't that many caches on a system and this doesn't really matter; however, if memcg is in use, each cache can have per-cgroup sub-caches. SLUB creates the same directories for these sub-caches under /sys/kernel/slab/$CACHE/cgroup. Unfortunately, because there can be a lot of cgroups, active or draining, the product of the numbers of caches, cgroups and files in each directory can reach a very high number - hundreds of thousands is commonplace. Millions and beyond aren't difficult to reach either. What's under /sys/kernel/slab is primarily for debugging and the information and control on the a root cache already cover its sub-caches. While having a separate directory for each sub-cache can be helpful for development, it doesn't make much sense to pay this amount of overhead by default. This patch introduces a boot parameter slub_memcg_sysfs which determines whether to create sysfs directories for per-memcg sub-caches. It also adds CONFIG_SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON which determines the boot parameter's default value and defaults to 0.

x86/platform/goldfish: Prevent unconditional loading
The goldfish platform code registers the platform device unconditionally
which causes havoc in several ways if the goldfish_pdev_bus driver is
enabled:
- Access to the hardcoded physical memory region, which is either not
available or contains stuff which is completely unrelated.
- Prevents that the interrupt of the serial port can be requested
- In case of a spurious interrupt it goes into a infinite loop in the
interrupt handler of the pdev_bus driver (which needs to be fixed
seperately).
Add a 'goldfish' command line option to make the registration opt-in when
the platform is compiled in.
I'm seriously grumpy about this engineering trainwreck, which has seven
SOBs from Intel developers for 50 lines of code. And none of them figured
out that this is broken. Impressive fail!

ACPI / sysfs: Provide quirk mechanism to prevent GPE flooding
Sometimes, the users may require a quirk to be provided from ACPI subsystem core to prevent a GPE from flooding. Normally, if a GPE cannot be dispatched, ACPICA core automatically prevents the GPE from firing. But there are cases the GPE is dispatched by _Lxx/_Exx provided via AML table, and OSPM is lacking of the knowledge to get _Lxx/_Exx correctly executed to handle the GPE, thus the GPE flooding may still occur. The existing quirk mechanism can be enabled/disabled using the following commands to prevent such kind of GPE flooding during runtime: # echo mask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00 # echo unmask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00 To avoid GPE flooding during boot, we need a boot stage mechanism. This patch provides such a boot stage quirk mechanism to stop this kind of GPE flooding. This patch doesn't fix any feature gap but since the new feature gaps could be found in the future endlessly, and can disappear if the feature gaps are filled, providing a boot parameter rather than a DMI table should suffice.

ima: define a canonical binary_runtime_measurements list format
The IMA binary_runtime_measurements list is currently in platform native format. To allow restoring a measurement list carried across kexec with a different endianness than the targeted kernel, this patch defines little-endian as the canonical format. For big endian systems wanting to save/restore the measurement list from a system with a different endianness, a new boot command line parameter named "ima_canonical_fmt" is defined. Considerations: use of the "ima_canonical_fmt" boot command line option will break existing userspace applications on big endian systems expecting the binary_runtime_measurements list to be in platform native format.

swiotlb: Add swiotlb=noforce debug option
On architectures like arm64, swiotlb is tied intimately to the core architecture DMA support. In addition, ZONE_DMA cannot be disabled. To aid debugging and catch devices not supporting DMA to memory outside the 32-bit address space, add a kernel command line option "swiotlb=noforce", which disables the use of bounce buffers. If specified, trying to map memory that cannot be used with DMA will fail, and a rate-limited warning will be printed. Note that io_tlb_nslabs is set to 1, which is the minimal supported value.

These are the documentation changes for 4.10.
It's another busy cycle for the docs tree, as the sphinx conversion continues. Highlights include: - Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but should be more solid now. - Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx. Only 27 to go... Lots of plain-text files have also been converted and integrated. - Images in binary formats have been replaced with more source-friendly versions. - Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of various files discussed at the kernel summit. - New documentation for the device_link mechanism. ...and, of course, lots of typo fixes and small updates. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAABAgAGBQJYTbl7AAoJEI3ONVYwIuV63NIP/REwzThnGWFJMRSuq8Ieq2r9 sFSQsaGTGlhyKiDoEooo+SO/Za3uTonjK+e7WZg8mhdiEdamta5aociU/71C1Yy/ T9ur0FhcGblrvZ1NidSDvCLwuECZOMMei7mgLZ9a+KCpc4ANqqTVZSUm1blKcqhF XelhVXxBa0ar35l/pVzyCxkdNXRWXv+MJZE8hp5XAdTdr11DS7UY9zrZdH31axtf BZlbYJrvB8WPydU6myTjRpirA17Hu7uU64MsL3bNIEiRQ+nVghEzQC8uxeUCvfVx r0H5AgGGQeir+e8GEv2T20SPZ+dumXs+y/HehKNb3jS3gV0mo+pKPeUhwLIxr+Zh QY64gf+jYf5ISHwAJRnU0Ima72ehObzSbx9Dko10nhq2OvbR5f83gjz9t9jKYFU7 RDowICA8lwqyRbHRoVfyoW8CpVhWFpMFu3yNeJMckeTish3m7ANqzaWslbsqIP5G zxgFMIrVVSbeae+sUeygtEJAnWI09aZ4tuaUXYtGWwu6ikC/3aV6DryP4bthG2LF A19uV4nMrLuuh8g2wiTHHjMfjYRwvSn+f9yaolwJhwyNDXQzRPy+ZJ3W/6olOkXC bAxTmVRCW5GA/fmSrfXmW1KbnxlWfP2C62hzZQ09UHxzTHdR97oFLDQdZhKo1uwf pmSJR0hVeRUmA4uw6+Su =A0EV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-4.10' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet: "These are the documentation changes for 4.10.
