9ff0bb5ba6 ARM: 8180/1: mm: implement no-highmem fast path in kmap_atomic_pfn()
Since CONFIG_HIGHMEM got enabled on ARMv5 Kirkwood, we have noticed a
very significant drop in networking performance. The test were
conducted on an OpenBlocks A7 board. Without this patch, the outgoing
performance measured with iperf are:

 - highmem OFF, TSO OFF   544 Mbit/s
 - highmem OFF, TSO ON	  942 Mbit/s
 - highmem ON,  TSO OFF   306 Mbit/s
 - highmem ON,  TSO ON    246 Mbit/s

On this Kirkwood platform, the L2 cache is a Feroceon cache, and with
this cache, all the range operations have to be done on virtual
addresses and not physical addresses. Therefore, whenever
CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled, the cache maintenance operations call
kmap_atomic_pfn() and kunmap_atomic().

However, kmap_atomic_pfn() does not implement the same fast path for
non-highmem pages as the one implemented in kmap_atomic(), and this is
one of the reason for the performance drop. While this patch does not
fully restore the performances, it clearly improves them a lot:

      	      	        without patch  with patch

 - highmem ON, TSO OFF   306 Mbit/s     387 Mbit/s
 - highmem ON, TSO ON    246 Mbit/s     434 Mbit/s

We're still far from the !CONFIG_HIGHMEM performances, but it does
improve a bit the situation.

Thanks a lot to Ezequiel Garcia and Gregory Clement for all the
testing work around this topic.

6d0ec1dd90 ARM: 8183/1: l2c: Improve l2c310_of_parse() error message
Russell King suggested [1]:

"I'd ask for one change.  Please make all these messages start with
"L2C-310 OF" not "PL310 OF:".  The device is described in ARM
documentation as a L2C-310 not PL310.  (Also note the : is dropped
too - most of the other messages don't have the : either.)

The:

"PL310 OF: cache setting yield illegal associativity
PL310 OF: -1073346556 calculated, only 8 and 16 legal"

message could also be changed to something like:

"L2C-310 OF cache associativity %d invalid, only 8 or 16 permittedn"

a2fa6f64c2 PCI: imx6: Wait for clocks to stabilize after ref_en
For boards without a reset GPIO we skip the delay between enabling the
pcie_ref_clk and touching the RC registers for configuration.  This hangs
the system if there isn't a proper delay to ensure the clocks are settled
in the DW PCIe core.

Also iMX6Q always needs an additional 10us delay to make sure the reset is
propagated through the core, as we don't have an explicitly controlled
reset input on this SoC.

This fixes a problem with 3fce0e882f ("PCI: imx6: Delay enabling
reference clock for SS until it stabilizes"): the kernel doesn't boot on
systems that don't pass the PCI GPIO reset in the DTB.  This regression
affects mx6 nitrogen boards.

7914900110 ACPI / EC: Fix regression due to conflicting firmware behavior between Samsung and Acer.
It is reported that Samsung laptops that need to poll events are broken by
the following commit:
 Commit 3afcf2ece4
 Subject: ACPI / EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued when SCI_EVT isn't set

The behaviors of the 2 vendor firmwares are conflict:
 1. Acer: OSPM shouldn't issue QR_EC unless SCI_EVT is set, firmware
         automatically sets SCI_EVT as long as there is event queued up.
 2. Samsung: OSPM should issue QR_EC whatever SCI_EVT is set, firmware
            returns 0 when there is no event queued up.

This patch is a quick fix to distinguish the behaviors to make Acer
behavior only effective for Acer EC firmware so that the breakages on
Samsung EC firmware can be avoided.

df9ff91801 Revert "ACPI / EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued before completing previous QR_EC"
It is reported that the following commit breaks Samsung hardware:
 Commit: 558e4736f2.
 Subject: ACPI / EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued before
          completing previous QR_EC

Which means the Samsung behavior conflicts with the Acer behavior.

1. Samsung may behave like:
   [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
   [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set
                              write QR_EC
                              read event
   [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear
   Without the above commit, Samsung can work:
   [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
   [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set
                              write QR_EC
                              CAN prepare next QR_EC as SCI_EVT=1
                              read event
   [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear
                              write QR_EC
                              read event
   [ -event 2 ] SCI_EVT clear
   With the above commit, Samsung cannot work:
   [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
   [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set
                              write QR_EC
                              read event
   [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear
                              CANNOT prepare next QR_EC as SCI_EVT=0
2. Acer may behave like:
   [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
   [ +event 2 ]
                              write QR_EC
                              read event
   [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear
   [ +event 2 ] SCI_EVT set
   Without the above commit, Acer cannot work when there is only 1 event:
   [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
                              write QR_EC
                              can prepared next QR_EC as SCI_EVT=1
                              read event
   [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT clear
                              CANNOT write QR_EC as SCI_EVT=0
   With the above commit, Acer can work:
   [ +event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
   [ +event 2 ]
                              write QR_EC
                              read event
   [ -event 1 ] SCI_EVT set
                              can prepare next QR_EC because SCI_EVT=0
                              CAN write QR_EC as SCI_EVT=1

Since Acer can also work with only the following commit applied:
 Commit: 3afcf2ece4
 Subject: ACPI / EC: Add support to disallow QR_EC to be issued when
          SCI_EVT isn't set
commit 558e4736f2 can be reverted.

3b70bdba2f ALSA: hda - Add workaround for CMI8888 snoop behavior
CMI8888 shows the stuttering playback when the snooping is disabled
on the audio buffer.  Meanwhile, we've got reports that CORB/RIRB
doesn't work in the snooped mode.  So, as a compromise, disable the
snoop only for CORB/RIRB and enable the snoop for the stream buffers.

The resultant patch became a bit ugly, unfortunately, but we still can
live with it.

493c303133 perf tools: Make CPUINFO_PROC an array to support different kernel versions
After kernel 3.7 (commit b4b8f770eb),
/proc/cpuinfo replaces 'Processor' to 'model name'.

This patch makes CPUINFO_PROC to an array and provides two choices for
ARM, makes it compatible for different kernel version.

v1 -> v2: minor changes as suggested by Namhyung Kim:

 - Doesn't pass @h and @evlist to __write_cpudesc;
 - Coding style fix.

v2 -> v3:
  - Rebase:

380b5143ab perf callchain: Use global caching provided by libunwind
The libunwind provides two caching policy which are global and
per-thread.  As perf unwinds callchains in a single thread, it'd
sufficient to use global caching.

This speeds up my perf report from 14s to 7s on a ~260MB data file.
Although the output sometimes contains a slight difference (~0.01% in
terms of number of lines printed) on callchains which were not resolved.

fd56e1546a KVM: emulator: fix execution close to the segment limit
Emulation of code that is 14 bytes to the segment limit or closer
(e.g. RIP = 0xFFFFFFF2 after reset) is broken because we try to read as
many as 15 bytes from the beginning of the instruction, and __linearize
fails when the passed (address, size) pair reaches out of the segment.

To fix this, let __linearize return the maximum accessible size (clamped
to 2^32-1) for usage in __do_insn_fetch_bytes, and avoid the limit check
by passing zero for the desired size.

For expand-down segments, __linearize is performing a redundant check.
(u32)(addr.ea + size - 1) <= lim can only happen if addr.ea is close
to 4GB; in this case, addr.ea + size - 1 will also fail the check against
the upper bound of the segment (which is provided by the D/B bit).
After eliminating the redundant check, it is simple to compute
the *max_size for expand-down segments too.

Now that the limit check is done in __do_insn_fetch_bytes, we want
to inject a general protection fault there if size < op_size (like
__linearize would have done), instead of just aborting.

This fixes booting Tiano Core from emulated flash with EPT disabled.

3606189fa3 KVM: emulator: fix error code for __linearize
The error code for #GP and #SS is zero when the segment is used to
access an operand or an instruction.  It is only non-zero when
a segment register is being loaded; for limit checks this means
cases such as:

* for #GP, when RIP is beyond the limit on a far call (before the first
instruction is executed).  We do not implement this check, but it
would be in em_jmp_far/em_call_far.

* for #SS, if the new stack overflows during an inter-privilege-level
call to a non-conforming code segment.  We do not implement stack
switching at all.

So use an error code of zero.

d0b92845e5 ARM: 8182/1: l2c: Make l2x0_cache_size_of_parse() return 'int'
Since commit f3354ab674 ("ARM: 8169/1: l2c: parse cache properties from

[    0.000000] PL310 OF: -2147097556 calculated, only 8 and 16 legal

As imx6q does not pass the "cache-size" and "cache-sets" properties in DT, the function l2x0_cache_size_of_parse() returns early and keep the 'associativity' pointer uninitialized.

To fix this problem, return error codes inside l2x0_cache_size_of_parse() and only use the 'associativity' pointer result if l2x0_cache_size_of_parse() succeeds.

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/27/546
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/28/546

Peter Zijlstra has attempted to help out, to clean up the mess:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/28/543

But has not received helpful and constructive replies which makes
me doubt wether it can all be finished in time until v3.18 is
released.

Despite various review feedback the author (Andi Kleen) has answered
only few of the review questions and has generally been uncooperative,
only giving replies when prompted repeatedly, and only giving minimal
answers instead of constructively explaining and helping along the effort.

That kind of behavior is not acceptable.

There's also a boot crash on Intel E5-1630 v3 CPUs reported for another
commit from Andi Kleen:

  e735b9db12 ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add Haswell-EP uncore support")

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/22/730

Which is not yet resolved. The uncore driver is independent in theory,
but the crash makes me worry about how well all these patches were
tested and makes me uneasy about the level of interminging that the
Broadwell and Haswell code has received by the commits above.

As a first step to resolve the mess revert the Broadwell client commits
back to the v3.17 version, before we run out of time and problematic
code hits a stable upstream kernel.

( If the Haswell-EP crash is not resolved via a simple fix then we'll have
  to revert the Haswell-EP uncore driver as well. )

The Broadwell client series has to be submitted in a clean fashion, with
single, well documented changes per patch. If they are submitted in time
and are accepted during review then they can possibly go into v3.19 but
will need additional scrutiny due to the rocky history of this patch set.

two crucial implementation details. Firstly, the commit does not set the
type/code/bit/max fields as expected later down the code which can cause
the driver to crash when a tablet with this usage is connected. Secondly,
the call to 'set_bit' causes MSC_PULSELED to be sent instead of the
expected MSC_SERIAL. This commit addreses both issues.

d1cd121083 x86, pageattr: Prevent overflow in slow_virt_to_phys() for X86_PAE
pte_pfn() returns a PFN of long (32 bits in 32-PAE), so "long <<
PAGE_SHIFT" will overflow for PFNs above 4GB.

Due to this issue, some Linux 32-PAE distros, running as guests on Hyper-V,
with 5GB memory assigned, can't load the netvsc driver successfully and
hence the synthetic network device can't work (we can use the kernel parameter
mem=3000M to work around the issue).

Cast pte_pfn() to phys_addr_t before shifting.

238b5ad855 staging: comedi: fix memory leak / bad pointer freeing for chanlist
As a follow-up to commit 6cab7a37f5 ("staging: comedi: (regression)
channel list must be set for COMEDI_CMD ioctl"), Hartley Sweeten pointed
out another couple of bugs stemming from commit 6cab7a37f5 ("staging:
comedi: comedi_fops: introduce __comedi_get_user_chanlist()").

Firstly, `do_cmdtest_ioctl()` never frees the kernel copy of the user
chanlist allocated by `__comedi_get_user_chanlist()`, so that memory is
leaked.  Fix it by freeing the allocated kernel memory pointed to by
`cmd.chanlist` before that pointer is overwritten with its original
pointer to user memory before `cmd` is copied back to user-space.

Secondly, if `__comedi_get_user_chanlist()` returns an error,
`cmd->chanlist` is left unchanged and in fact will be a pointer to user
memory.  This causes `do_cmd_ioctl()` to `goto cleanup` and call
`do_become_nonbusy()` which would attempt to free the memory pointed to
by the user-space pointer.  Fix it by setting `cmd->chanlist` to NULL at
the start of `__comedi_get_user_chanlist()`.

Function mp_register_gsi() returns blindly the GSI number for the ACPI

exposed on a SuperMicro system, which shares one GSI between ACPI SCI
and PCI device, with following failure:

because after the topology update has moved the CPUs, cpu_to_node is

protection for dereferences without the RCU-related debugging noise.

5fecf3a1e1 staging: android: logger: Fix log corruption regression
Since commit cd678fce42 ("switch logger to ->write_iter()"), any
attempt to write to the log results in the log data being written over
its own metadata, thus rendering the log unreadable.

The problem was first detected when I ran an Android userspace on the
v3.18-rc1 kernel. However the issue can also be observed with a
non-Android userspace by using echo/cat to write to/from /dev/log_main .

This patch resolves the problem by using a temporary to track the status
of not-yet-committed writes to the log buffer.

====================
cdc-ether: handle promiscuous mode

Since kernel 3.16, my Lenovo USB network adapters (RTL8153) using
cdc-ether are not working anymore in a bridge.

This is due to commit c472ab68ad, which
resets the packet filter when the device is bound.

The default packet filter set by cdc-ether does not include
promiscuous, while the adapter seemed to have promiscuous enabled by
default.

This patch series allows to support promiscuous mode for cdc-ether, by
hooking into set_rx_mode.

Incidentally, maybe this device should be handled by the r8152 driver,
but this patch series is still nice for other adapters.

b77e26d191 cdc-ether: handle promiscuous mode with a set_rx_mode callback
Promiscuous mode was not supported anymore with my Lenovo adapters
(RTL8153) since commit c472ab68ad
(cdc-ether: clean packet filter upon probe).

It was not possible to use them in a bridge anymore.
