Input: i8042 - skip selftest on ASUS laptops
On suspend/resume cycle, selftest is executed to reset i8042 controller. But when this is done in Asus devices, subsequent calls to detect/init functions to elantech driver fails. Skipping selftest fixes this problem. An easier step to reproduce this problem is adding i8042.reset=1 as a kernel parameter. On Asus laptops, it'll make the system to start with the touchpad already stuck, since psmouse_probe forcibly calls the selftest function. This patch was inspired by John Hiesey's change[1], but, since this problem affects a lot of models of Asus, let's avoid running selftests on them. All models affected by this problem: A455LD K401LB K501LB K501LX R409L V502LX X302LA X450LCP X450LD X455LAB X455LDB X455LF Z450LA [1]: https://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=144312209020616&w=2 Fixes: "ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad dies after resume from suspend" (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107971) Signed-off-by: Marcos Paulo de Souza <marcos.souza.org@gmail.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> |

lib/bitmap.c: enhance bitmap syntax
Today there are platforms with many CPUs (up to 4K). Trying to boot only
part of the CPUs may result in too long string.
For example lets take NPS platform that is part of arch/arc. This
platform have SMP system with 256 cores each with 16 HW threads (SMT
machine) where HW thread appears as CPU to the kernel. In this example
there is total of 4K CPUs. When one tries to boot only part of the HW
threads from each core the string representing the map may be long... For
example if for sake of performance we decided to boot only first half of
HW threads of each core the map will look like:
0-7,16-23,32-39,...,4080-4087
This patch introduce new syntax to accommodate with such use case. I
added an optional postfix to a range of CPUs which will choose according
to given modulo the desired range of reminders i.e.:
<cpus range>:sed_size/group_size
For example, above map can be described in new syntax like this:
0-4095:8/16
Note that this patch is backward compatible with current syntax.

This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.9 series:
Subsystem improvements:
- Do away with the last users of the obsolete Kconfig options
ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB and ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB (the latter
always sounded like an item on a wishlist to Santa Claus to
me). We can now select GPIOLIB and be done with it, for all
archs. After some struggle it even work on UM. Not that it has
GPIO, but if it wants to, it can select the library.
- Continued efforts to make drivers properly either tristate or
bool.
- Introduce a warning for drivers assigning default triggers to
their irqchip lines when probed from device tree, so we find and
fix these ambigous drivers. It is agreed that in the OF config
path, the device tree defines trigger characteristics.
- The same warning, mutatis mutandis, for ACPI-probed GPIO
irqchips.
- We introduce the ability to mark certain IRQ lines as "unusable"
as they can be taken by BIOS/firmware, unrouted in silicon and
generally nasty if you use them, and such things. This is
put to good use in the STMPE driver and also in the Cherryview
pin control driver.
- A new "mockup" virtual GPIO device that can be used for testing.
The plan is to add unit tests under tools/* for exercising this
device and verify that the kernel code paths are working as they
should.
- Make memory-mapped I/O-drivers depend on HAS_IOMEM. This was
implicit all the time, but when people started building UM
with allyesconfig or allmodconfig it exploded in their face.
- Move some stray bits of device tree and ACPI HW description
callbacks down into their respective implementation silo. These
were causing issues when compiling on !HAS_IOMEM as well, so
now eventually UM compiles the GPIOLIB library if it wants to.
New drivers:
- New driver for the Aspeed GPIO front-end companion to the
pin controller merged through the pin control tree.
- New driver for the LP873x PMIC GPIO portions.
- New driver for Technologic Systems' I2C FPGA GPIO such as
TS4900, TS-7970, TS-7990 and TS-4100.
- New driver for the Broadcom BCM63xx series including BCM6338
and BCM6345.
- New driver for the Intel WhiskeyCove PMIC GPIO.
- New driver for the Allwinner AXP209 PMIC GPIO portions.
- New driver for Diamond Systems 48 line GPIO-MM, another of
these port-mapped I/O expansion cards.
- Support the STMicroelectronics STMPE1600 variant in the STMPE
driver.
Driver improvements:
- The STMPE driver now supports rising/falling edge detection
properly for IRQs.
- The PCA954x will now fetch and enable its VCC regulator properly.
- Major rework of the PCA953x driver with the goal of eventually
switching it over to use regmap and thus modernize it even more.
- Switch the IOP driver to use the generic MMIO GPIO library.
- Move the ages old HTC EGPIO (extended GPIO) GPIO expander driver
over to this subsystem from MFD, achieveing some separation of
concerns.

This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.
The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work. Here we have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution, thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser. I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the old device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book. Both are meant to show how we can integrate together our existing documentation into a more coherent and accessible whole. It involves moving some stuff around and formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it. The good news is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files are *almost* in RST format already; the amount of messing around required is minimal. And, of course, there's the usual set of updates, typo fixes, and more. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAABAgAGBQJX8st8AAoJEI3ONVYwIuV6d10P/0Zsnx3hSSx22aHxP4kVb4s/ NTttFAienYzc2fYYD3K/wMQbSbprW8Pp7uSP1suzAbU5FGgfLyDFQHnE0AVqFNiT MHVc5oBWp4ZlvNcyQUeXOsKtb5Rin00XHjer2mm/T9HfgmCYR4i+C9HQuv+J94Jf sgeI4IimvLjlp7dDbhcIfdqCpZ+UwBSpSm9w5f7astYDjocJHrkBqyk/46Ir4qz9 +2joNZRWMUatrQYJWMJnnvlnx8lHhkDjaL/Egy+f7ucpddEkbGvWvabGCSMtCyzS CKlA53Y4wS59cNFkAuxsHjun4TcQhbZn/iBIM+8aOdameO0ksC4jSoND2P6N6vKF dHkAkayP9ChW3k/J8D+3cGIJNFiaYevEXcgxLyShjCuh4t4yfOC9aIGUl3Ye9/mR tiKpMsvzmwJ+yO+kzJsxWTmRAX5wdI1Z062ltiS1dmSbl3c3NgQFpfP7V7AJSQ7c DzkuoUnGEqJOHm64dAZQuxL4jj6StzejjxlhH0bIjbNn1a9VlX9afwsdJaXA+kmr jQHJtR0wD1mLMYYdvNEiqvcCbumG+kaXmH6eUQadRxruRdZyhi1Z6Ql1CtwQGtbR SetC/MVxIN3fGPbZYhJ162xVjQ8OeX0ndRmRjy6SBDMoRGSKqi2IME8JAGOshxE0 0uYAJJFZOeiR6KaPnci/ =kGKl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-4.9' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.

arm64: arch_timer: Work around QorIQ Erratum A-008585
Erratum A-008585 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has the potential to contain an erroneous value for a small number of core clock cycles every time the timer value changes". Accesses to TVAL (both read and write) are also affected due to the implicit counter read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an equivalent write to CVAL. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value, and when writing TVAL to retry until counter reads before and after the write return the same value. The workaround is enabled if the fsl,erratum-a008585 property is found in the timer node in the device tree. This can be overridden with the clocksource.arm_arch_timer.fsl-a008585 boot parameter, which allows KVM users to enable the workaround until a mechanism is implemented to automatically communicate this information. This erratum can be found on LS1043A and LS2080A.

x86/pkeys: Default to a restrictive init PKRU
PKRU is the register that lets you disallow writes or all access to a given protection key. The XSAVE hardware defines an "init state" of 0 for PKRU: its most permissive state, allowing access/writes to everything. Since we start off all new processes with the init state, we start all processes off with the most permissive possible PKRU. This is unfortunate. If a thread is clone()'d [1] before a program has time to set PKRU to a restrictive value, that thread will be able to write to all data, no matter what pkey is set on it. This weakens any integrity guarantees that we want pkeys to provide. To fix this, we define a very restrictive PKRU to override the XSAVE-provided value when we create a new FPU context. We choose a value that only allows access to pkey 0, which is as restrictive as we can practically make it. This does not cause any practical problems with applications using protection keys because we require them to specify initial permissions for each key when it is allocated, which override the restrictive default. In the end, this ensures that threads which do not know how to manage their own pkey rights can not do damage to data which is pkey-protected. I would have thought this was a pretty contrived scenario, except that I heard a bug report from an MPX user who was creating threads in some very early code before main(). It may be crazy, but folks evidently _do_ it.

This patch introduces a new IOMMU driver parameter, amd_iommu_guest_ir,
which can be used to specify different interrupt remapping mode for
passthrough devices to VM guest:
* legacy: Legacy interrupt remapping (w/ 32-bit IRTE)
* vapic : Guest vAPIC interrupt remapping (w/ GA mode 128-bit IRTE)
Note that in vapic mode, it can also supports legacy interrupt remapping
for non-passthrough devices with the 128-bit IRTE.

docs: kernel-parameter: Improve the description of nr_cpus and maxcpus
From the old description people still can't get what's the exact difference between nr_cpus and maxcpus. Especially in kdump kernel nr_cpus is always suggested if it's implemented in the ARCH. The reason is nr_cpus is used to limit the max number of possible cpu in system, the sum of already plugged cpus and hot plug cpus can't exceed its value. However maxcpus is used to limit how many cpus are allowed to be brought up during bootup. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> |

PCI: Update "pci=resource_alignment" documentation
Some uio based PCI drivers, e.g., uio_cif, do not work if the assigned PCI memory resources are not page aligned. By using the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment=<align>@<bus>:<slot>.<func>" it is possible to request page alignment for memory resources of devices. However, this is cumbersome when using several devices, and the bus/slot/func addresses may change if devices are added to or removed from the system. Extend the "pci=resource_alignment" option so we can specify the relevant devices via PCI vendor, device, subvendor, and subdevice IDs. The specification of the devices via IDs is indicated by a leading string "pci:" as argument to "pci=resource_alignment". The format of the specification is pci:<vendor>:<device>[:<subvendor>:<subdevice>] Examples: pci=resource_alignment=4096@pci:8086:9c22:103c:198f pci=resource_alignment=pci:8086:9c22 # defaults to PAGE_SIZE align [bhelgaas: changelog, use actual vendor/device IDs in examples] Signed-off-by: Mathias Koehrer <mathias.koehrer@etas.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> |

Highlights:
Trond made a change to the server's tcp logic that allows a fast
client to better take advantage of high bandwidth networks, but
may increase the risk that a single client could starve other
clients; a new sunrpc.svc_rpc_per_connection_limit parameter
should help mitigate this in the (hopefully unlikely) event this
becomes a problem in practice.
Tom Haynes added a minimal flex-layout pnfs server, which is of
no use in production for now--don't build it unless you're doing

modules: Add kernel parameter to blacklist modules
Blacklisting a module in linux has long been a problem. The current procedure is to use rd.blacklist=module_name, however, that doesn't cover the case after the initramfs and before a boot prompt (where one is supposed to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to blacklist runtime loading). Using rd.shell to get an early prompt is hit-or-miss, and doesn't cover all situations AFAICT. This patch adds this functionality of permanently blacklisting a module by its name via the kernel parameter module_blacklist=module_name. [v2]: Rusty, use core_param() instead of __setup() which simplifies things. [v3]: Rusty, undo wreckage from strsep() [v4]: Rusty, simpler version of blacklisted() Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: linux-doc@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> |

printk: add kernel parameter to control writes to /dev/kmsg
Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options: * ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace. * on - unlimited logging from userspace * off - logging from userspace gets ignored The default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it. This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of survival from all the spamming. It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line. Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg. That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime. This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the logging on us through sysctl(2). This patch is based on previous patches from Linus and Steven.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The new feaures here are the support for ACPI overlays (allowing ACPI
tables to be loaded at any time from EFI variables or via configfs)
and the LPI (Low-Power Idle) support. Also notable is the ACPI-based
NUMA support for ARM64.
Apart from that we have two new drivers, for the DPTF (Dynamic Power
and Thermal Framework) power participant device and for the Intel
Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC, some more PMIC-related changes, support for
the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and support for
platform-initiated graceful shutdown.
Plus two new pieces of documentation and usual assorted fixes and
cleanups in quite a few places.
Specifics:
- Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).
- Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor
Container objects) and support for ACPI idle states management on
ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).
- General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for
ACPI-based NUMA (Hanjun Guo, David Daney, Robert Richter).
- General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).
- Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and
improvements of kernel messages printed by the error injection code
(Huang Ying, Borislav Petkov).
- New driver for the Intel Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC operation region
and support for the REGS operation region on Broxton, PMIC code
cleanups (Bin Gao, Felipe Balbi, Paul Gortmaker).
- New driver for the power participant device which is part of the
Dynamic Power and Thermal Framework (DPTF) and DPTF-related code
reorganization (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Support for the platform-initiated graceful shutdown feature
introduced in ACPI 6.1 (Prashanth Prakash).
- ACPI button driver update related to lid input events generated
automatically on initialization and system resume that have been
problematic for some time (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI EC driver cleanups (Lv Zheng).
- Documentation of the ACPICA release automation process and the
in-kernel ACPI AML debugger (Lv Zheng).
- New blacklist entry and two fixes for the ACPI backlight driver
(Alex Hung, Arvind Yadav, Ralf Gerbig).
- Cleanups of the ACPI pci_slot driver (Joe Perches, Paul Gortmaker).
- ACPI CPPC code changes to make it more robust against possible
defects in ACPI tables and new symbol definitions for PCC (Hoan
Tran).
- System reboot code modification to execute the ACPI _PTS (Prepare
To Sleep) method in addition to _TTS (Ocean He).
- ACPICA-related change to carry out lock ordering checks in ACPICA
if ACPICA debug is enabled in the kernel (Lv Zheng).
- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups (Andy Shevchenko, Baoquan He,
Bhaktipriya Shridhar, Paul Gortmaker, Rafael Wysocki)"

Power management material for v4.8-rc1
- Rework the cpufreq governor interface to make it more straightforward
and modify the conservative governor to avoid using transition
notifications (Rafael Wysocki).
- Rework the handling of frequency tables by the cpufreq core to make
it more efficient (Viresh Kumar).
- Modify the schedutil governor to reduce the number of wakeups it
causes to occur in cases when the CPU frequency doesn't need to be
changed (Steve Muckle, Viresh Kumar).
- Fix some minor issues and clean up code in the cpufreq core and
governors (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
- Add Intel Broxton support to the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
Pandruvada).
- Fix problems related to the config TDP feature and to the validity
of the MSR_HWP_INTERRUPT register in intel_pstate (Jan Kiszka,
Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Make intel_pstate update the cpu_frequency tracepoint even if
the frequency doesn't change to avoid confusing powertop (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Clean up the usage of __init/__initdata in intel_pstate, mark some
of its internal variables as __read_mostly and drop an unused
structure element from it (Jisheng Zhang, Carsten Emde).
- Clean up the usage of some duplicate MSR symbols in intel_pstate
and turbostat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Update/fix the powernv, s3c24xx and mvebu cpufreq drivers (Akshay
Adiga, Viresh Kumar, Ben Dooks).
- Fix a regression (introduced during the 4.5 cycle) in the
pcc-cpufreq driver by reverting the problematic commit (Andreas
Herrmann).

support in it and make it explicitly non-modular (Jacob Pan,
Jan Beulich, Paul Gortmaker).
- Add support for Denverton and Ivy Bridge server to the Intel RAPL
power capping driver and make it more careful about the handing
of MSRs that may not be present (Jacob Pan, Xiaolong Wang).
- Fix resume from hibernation on x86-64 by making the CPU offline
during resume avoid using MONITOR/MWAIT in the "play dead" loop
which may lead to an inadvertent "revival" of a "dead" CPU and
a page fault leading to a kernel crash from it (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make memory management during resume from hibernation more
straightforward (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add debug features that should help to detect problems related
to hibernation and resume from it (Rafael Wysocki, Chen Yu).

during the cleanup phase if they have not been called during the
corresponding preparation phase which is possible if one of the
other notifiers returns an error at that time (Lianwei Wang).
- Improve suspend-related debug printout in the tasks freezer and
clean up suspend-related console handling (Roger Lu, Borislav
Petkov).
- Update the AnalyzeSuspend script in the kernel sources to
version 4.2 (Todd Brandt).

when user space changes the runtime PM settings for them and
improve its error reporting (Rafael Wysocki, Linus Walleij).
- Fix error paths in devfreq drivers (exynos, exynos-ppmu, exynos-bus)
and in the core, make some devfreq code explicitly non-modular and
change some of it into tristate (Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz,
Peter Chen, Paul Gortmaker).

"Again, the majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem, but
there are no big features this time. The cpufreq changes that stand
out somewhat are the governor interface rework and improvements
related to the handling of frequency tables. Apart from those, there
are fixes and new device/CPU IDs in drivers, cleanups and an
improvement of the new schedutil governor.
Next, there are some changes in the hibernation core, including a fix
for a nasty problem related to the MONITOR/MWAIT usage by CPU offline
during resume from hibernation, a few core improvements related to
memory management during resume, a couple of additional debug features
and cleanups.
Finally, we have some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq subsystem,

Some big changes this month, headlined by the addition of a new formatted
documentation mechanism based on the Sphinx system. The objectives here are to make it easier to create better-integrated (and more attractive) documents while (eventually) dumping our one-of-a-kind, cobbled-together system for something that is widely used and maintained by others. There's a fair amount of information what's being done, why, and how to use it in: https://lwn.net/Articles/692704/ https://lwn.net/Articles/692705/ Closer to home, Documentation/kernel-documentation.rst describes how it works. For now, the new system exists alongside the old one; you should soon see the GPU documentation converted over in the DRM pull and some significant media conversion work as well. Once all the docs have been moved over and we're convinced that the rough edges (of which are are a few) have been smoothed over, the DocBook-based stuff should go away. Primary credit is to Jani Nikula for doing the heavy lifting to make this stuff actually work; there has also been notable effort from Markus Heiser, Daniel Vetter, and Mauro Carvalho Chehab. Expect a couple of conflicts on the new index.rst file over the course of the merge window; they are trivially resolvable. That file may be a bit of a conflict magnet in the short term, but I don't expect that situation to last for any real length of time. Beyond that, of course, we have the usual collection of tweaks, updates, and typo fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJXlT8bAAoJEI3ONVYwIuV6IF0QAM7qpEgAveXgwzGr18ReftjB ryyPXdLNX8R7fQkUAu85Znlw93k4+7QxHseBgZ1I3t9IhjvzemidOKfj96SJ0DVE zco5FUTO1TPfO2uG8asNzlXSrwktrEZoFTraRIYpCjAAimg/UEQAM4xgNOJfmW39 8eLg6dhnzqnfCH6M+Q7AZPLmqNSOfA2qNFqHNs7VCbwjLQC0l4yw4PHOsdX0QhCL NtlukHOhB4CwaELDl6lZOQgnz79e4pDljFd/wA/vVpdq7ev8NnOgVVt93M2fUvLX Bdfzo2OtZg7LJnWtpQl2LJq2MJJdOmgIw+ls6cB5gvxV3+CCIndE/6IIbimC/lZi DiaaqVU/EV3AemBDbqErO4k3ZvMT2ZTaSx1OQoLpIwNAsAkEOkb+t2hcwrTqhxg1 kEIXEEboXwStBtH3iar2YiGHQWUhia4mxfv5n4Dvamaca4tGWXHWxSRjbRcaJ1ef v1kt6ymjwr2sd9116EUxngfYONwlrhk5F87D/dC2eQzEyS0z7+F8wWb/h2gsAaU1 6oVCoQjTe2KAc/7dHINMSIjg2TfVfHS5XIhWu5z6wyxRb8ey9QuKLQYlOTV/L3Ms aR4O6qvDIsIbOvEd+hHSIbeG7JOPd0LdSI4tdo4d9kquW2OJ6TmmOr/ihbJt430v s/Qxqwgme/8DJd3KcV6j =4fDK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-for-linus' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "Some big changes this month, headlined by the addition of a new formatted documentation mechanism based on the Sphinx system.

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There are a couple of new things for s390 with this merge request:
- a new scheduling domain "drawer" is added to reflect the unusual
topology found on z13 machines. Performance tests showed up to 8
percent gain with the additional domain.
- the new crc-32 checksum crypto module uses the vector-galois-field
multiply and sum SIMD instruction to speed up crc-32 and crc-32c.
- proper __ro_after_init support, this requires RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA in
the generic vmlinux.lds linker script definitions.
- kcov instrumentation support. A prerequisite for that is the
inline assembly basic block cleanup, which is the reason for the
net/iucv/iucv.c change.
- support for 2GB pages is added to the hugetlbfs backend.
Then there are two removals:
- the oprofile hardware sampling support is dead code and is removed.
The oprofile user space uses the perf interface nowadays.
- the ETR clock synchronization is removed, this has been superseeded
be the STP clock synchronization. And it always has been
"interesting" code..
And the usual bug fixes and cleanups"

PCI: Allow additional bus numbers for hotplug bridges
A user may hot add a switch requiring more than one bus to enumerate. This previously required a system reboot if BIOS did not sufficiently pad the bus resource, which they frequently don't do. Add a kernel parameter so a user can specify the minimum number of bus numbers to reserve for a hotplug bridge's subordinate buses so rebooting won't be necessary. The default is 1, which is equivalent to previous behavior. Signed-off-by: Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> |

PM / hibernate: Image data protection during restoration
Make it possible to protect all pages holding image data during hibernate image restoration by setting them read-only (so as to catch attempts to write to those pages after image data have been stored in them). This adds overhead to image restoration code (it may cause large page mappings to be split as a result of page flags changes) and the errors it protects against should never happen in theory, so the feature is only active after passing hibernate=protect_image to the command line of the restore kernel. Also it only is built if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> |

efi / ACPI: load SSTDs from EFI variables
This patch allows SSDTs to be loaded from EFI variables. It works by specifying the EFI variable name containing the SSDT to be loaded. All variables with the same name (regardless of the vendor GUID) will be loaded. Note that we can't use acpi_install_table and we must rely on the dynamic ACPI table loading and bus re-scanning mechanisms. That is because I2C/SPI controllers are initialized earlier then the EFI subsystems and all I2C/SPI ACPI devices are enumerated when the I2C/SPI controllers are initialized.

powerpc/mm: Add a parameter to disable 1TB segs
This patch adds the kernel command line parameter "no_tb_segs" which forces the kernel to use 256MB rather than 1TB segments. Forcing the use of 256MB segments makes it considerably easier to test code that depends on an SLB miss occurring.

ACPI / APEI: Add Boot Error Record Table (BERT) support
ACPI/APEI is designed to verifiy/report H/W errors, like Corrected Error(CE) and Uncorrected Error(UC). It contains four tables: HEST, ERST, EINJ and BERT. The first three tables have been merged for a long time, but because of lacking BIOS support for BERT, the support for BERT is pending until now. Recently on ARM 64 platform it is has been supported. So here we come. Under normal circumstances, when a hardware error occurs, kernel will be notified via NMI, MCE or some other method, then kernel will process the error condition, report it, and recover it if possible. But sometime, the situation is so bad, so that firmware may choose to reset directly without notifying Linux kernel. Linux kernel can use the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) to get the un-notified hardware errors that occurred in a previous boot. In this patch, the error information is reported via printk. For more information about BERT, please refer to ACPI Specification version 6.0, section 18.3.1: http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6.0.pdf The following log is a BERT record after system reboot because of hitting a fatal memory error: BERT: Error records from previous boot: [Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action [Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected [Hardware Error]: Error 0, type: recoverable [Hardware Error]: section_type: memory error [Hardware Error]: error_status: 0x0000000000000400 [Hardware Error]: physical_address: 0xffffffffffffffff [Hardware Error]: card: 1 module: 2 bank: 3 row: 1 column: 2 bit_position: 5 [Hardware Error]: error_type: 2, single-bit ECC [Tomasz Nowicki: Clear error status at the end of error handling] [Tony: Applied some cleanups suggested by Fu Wei] [Fu Wei: delete EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(bert_disable), improve the code] Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomasz Nowicki <tomasz.nowicki@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Chen, Gong <gong.chen@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Jonathan (Zhixiong) Zhang <zjzhang@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Fu Wei <fu.wei@linaro.org> Tested-by: Tyler Baicar <tbaicar@codeaurora.org> Reviewed-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Control the evtstrm via the cmdline
Disabling the eventstream can be useful for both remotely debugging a
deployed production system and development of code using WFE-based
polling loops. Whilst this can currently be controlled via a Kconfig
option (CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER_EVTSTREAM), it's often desirable to toggle
the feature on the command line, so this patch adds a new command-line
option ("clocksource.arm_arch_timer.evtstrm") to do just that. The
default behaviour is determined based on CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER_EVTSTREAM.

s390/oprofile: remove hardware sampler support
Remove hardware sampler support from oprofile module. The oprofile user space utilty has been switched to use the kernel perf interface, for which we also provide hardware sampling support. In addition the hardware sampling support is also slightly broken: it supports only 16 bits for the pid and therefore would generate wrong results on machines which have a pid >64k. Also the pt_regs structure which was passed to oprofile common code cannot necessarily be used to generate sane backtraces, since the task(s) in question may run while the samples are fed to oprofile. So the result would be more or less random. However given that the only user space tools switched to the perf interface already four years ago the hardware sampler code seems to be unused code, and therefore it should be reasonable to remove it. The timer based oprofile support continues to work.

PCI: Extending pci=resource_alignment to specify device/vendor IDs
Some uio-based PCI drivers, e.g., uio_cif do not work if the assigned PCI memory resources are not page aligned. By using the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment" it is possible to force single PCI boards to use page alignment for their memory resources. However, this is fairly cumbersome if several of these boards are in use as the specification of the cards has to be done via PCI bus/slot/function number which might change, e.g., by adding another board. Extend the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment" to allow specification of relevant devices via PCI device/vendor (and subdevice/subvendor) IDs. The specification of the devices via device/vendor is indicated by a leading string "pci:" as argument to "pci=resource_alignment". The format of the specification is pci:<vendor>:<device>[:<subvendor>:<subdevice>] Signed-off-by: Mathias Koehrer <mathias.koehrer@etas.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> |
