Pull ARM Device-tree updates from Olof Johansson:
"Device-tree continues to see lots of updates. The majority of patches
here are smaller changes for new hardware on existing platforms, and
there are a few larger changes worth pointing out.
Major new platforms:
- Gemini has been ported to DT, so a handful of "new" platforms moved
over from board files
- Rockchip RK3288 support for Tinkerboard and Phytec phyCORE-RK3288
SoM and RDK
- A bunch of embedded platforms, several Linksys platforms, Synology
DS116,
- Motorola Droid4 (really old OMAP-based phone) support is added.
Some refactorings, i.e. Allwinner H3/H5 support is commonalized.
And lots of smaller changes, cleanups, etc. See shortlog for more
description
We're adding ability to cross-include DT files between arm and arm64,
by creating appropriate links in the dt-include directory, and using
arm/ and arm64/ as include prefixes. This will avoid other local hacks
such as per-file links between the two arch trees (this broke for
external mirroring of DT contents). Now they can just provide their
own appropriate dt-include hierarcy per platform"

A known weakness in ptr_ring design is that it does not handle well the
situation when ring is almost full: as entries are consumed they are
immediately used again by the producer, so consumer and producer are
writing to a shared cache line.
To fix this, add batching to consume calls: as entries are
consumed do not write NULL into the ring until we get
a multiple (in current implementation 2x) of cache lines
away from the producer. At that point, write them all out.
We do the write out in the reverse order to keep
producer from sharing cache with consumer for as long
as possible.
Writeout also triggers when ring wraps around - there's
no special reason to do this but it helps keep the code
a bit simpler.
What should we do if getting away from producer by 2 cache lines
would mean we are keeping the ring moe than half empty?
Maybe we should reduce the batching in this case,
current patch simply reduces the batching.
Notes:
- it is no longer true that a call to consume guarantees
that the following call to produce will succeed.
No users seem to assume that.
- batching can also in theory reduce the signalling rate:
users that would previously send interrups to the producer
to wake it up after consuming each entry would now only
need to do this once in a batch.
Doing this would be easy by returning a flag to the caller.
No users seem to do signalling on consume yet so this was not
implemented yet.

With all drivers converted there's only legacy dri1 drivers using it.
Not going to touch those, instead just hide it like we've done with
other dri1 driver hooks like firstopen.
In all this I didn't find any real reason why we'd needed 2 hooks, and
having symmetry between open and close just appeases my OCD better.
Yeah, someone else could do an s/postclose/close/, but that's for
someone who understands cocci. And maybe after this series is reviewed

Second round of KVM/ARM Changes for v4.12.
Changes include:
- A fix related to the 32-bit idmap stub
- A fix to the bitmask used to deode the operands of an AArch32 CP
instruction
- We have moved the files shared between arch/arm/kvm and
arch/arm64/kvm to virt/kvm/arm
- We add support for saving/restoring the virtual ITS state to
userspace
The its->initialized doesn't bring much to the table, and creates
unnecessary ordering between setting the address and initializing it
(which amounts to exactly nothing).
Let's kill it altogether, making KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT the no-op
it deserves to be.

Instead of waiting with registering KVM iodevs until the first VCPU is
run, we can actually create the iodevs when the redist base address is
set. The only downside is that we must now also check if we need to do
this for VCPUs which are created after creating the VGIC, because there
is no enforced ordering between creating the VGIC (and setting its base
addresses) and creating the VCPUs.

There are occasional needs to use the index of vcpu in the kvm->vcpus

vcpu->vcpu_id, the vcpu index is guaranteed to not be sparse across all
vcpus which is useful when allocating a memory area for each vcpu.

The main thing here is a new implementation of the in-kernel
XICS interrupt controller emulation for POWER9 machines, from Ben
Herrenschmidt.
POWER9 has a new interrupt controller called XIVE (eXternal Interrupt
Virtualization Engine) which is able to deliver interrupts directly
to guest virtual CPUs in hardware without hypervisor intervention.
With this new code, the guest still sees the old XICS interface but
performance is better because the XICS emulation in the host uses the
XIVE directly rather than going through a XICS emulation in firmware.

Patch series "second round of tracepoints for DAX".
This second round of DAX tracepoint patches adds tracing to the PTE
fault path (dax_iomap_pte_fault(), dax_pfn_mkwrite(), dax_load_hole(),
dax_insert_mapping()) and to the writeback path
(dax_writeback_mapping_range(), dax_writeback_one()).
The purpose of this tracing is to give us a high level view of what DAX
is doing, whether faults are being serviced by PMDs or PTEs, and by real
storage or by zero pages covering holes.
I do have some patches nearly ready which also add tracing to
grab_mapping_entry() and dax_insert_mapping_entry(). These are more
targeted at logging how we are interacting with the radix tree, how we
use empty entries for locking, whether we "downgrade" huge zero pages to
4k PTE sized allocations, etc. In the end it seemed to me that this
might be too detailed to have as constantly present tracepoints, but if
anyone sees value in having tracepoints like this in the DAX code
permanently (Jan?), please let me know and I'll add those last two
patches.
All these tracepoints were done to be consistent with the style of the
XFS tracepoints and with the existing DAX PMD tracepoints.
This patch (of 6):
Add tracepoints to dax_iomap_pte_fault(), following the same logging
conventions as the rest of DAX.
Here is an example fault that initially tries to be serviced by the PMD
fault handler but which falls back to PTEs because the VMA isn't large
enough to hold a PMD:

The kref functions check for NULL release functions. This WARN_ON seems
rather pointless. We will eventually release and then just crash
nicely. It is also somewhat expensive because these functions are
inlined in a lot of places. Removing the WARN_ONs saves around 2.3k in
this kernel (likely more in others with more drivers)

Patch series "set_memory_* functions header refactor", v3.
The set_memory_* APIs came out of a desire to have a better way to
change memory attributes. Many of these attributes were linked to cache
functionality so the prototypes were put in cacheflush.h. These days,
the APIs have grown and have a much wider use than just cache APIs. To
support this growth, split off set_memory_* and friends into a separate
header file to avoid growing cacheflush.h for APIs that have nothing to
do with caches.

__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying
allocation. This API is quite popular
$ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l
77
The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want
to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no
reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages
which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't
use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily
too complex.
This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to
be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM
are simplified and drop the flag.

__vmalloc_node_flags used to be static inline but this has changed by
"mm: introduce kv[mz]alloc helpers" because kvmalloc_node needs to use
it as well and the code is outside of the vmalloc proper. I haven't
realized that changing this will lead to a subtle bug though. The
function is responsible to track the caller as well. This caller is
then printed by /proc/vmallocinfo. If __vmalloc_node_flags is not
inline then we would get only direct users of __vmalloc_node_flags as
callers (e.g. v[mz]alloc) which reduces usefulness of this debugging
feature considerably. It simply doesn't help to see that the given
range belongs to vmalloc as a caller:
0xffffc90002c79000-0xffffc90002c7d000 16384 vmalloc+0x16/0x18 pages=3 vmalloc N0=3
0xffffc90002c81000-0xffffc90002c85000 16384 vmalloc+0x16/0x18 pages=3 vmalloc N1=3
0xffffc90002c8d000-0xffffc90002c91000 16384 vmalloc+0x16/0x18 pages=3 vmalloc N1=3
0xffffc90002c95000-0xffffc90002c99000 16384 vmalloc+0x16/0x18 pages=3 vmalloc N1=3
We really want to catch the _caller_ of the vmalloc function. Fix this
issue by making __vmalloc_node_flags static inline again.

Patch series "kvmalloc", v5.
There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the
tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about
the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that
a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc
part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can
invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward
which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc
fallback is available.
As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate
knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which
strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory
subsystem proper.
Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper
instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT
in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet
was not opposed [2] to convert them as well.

[2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1485273626.16328.301.camel@edumazet-glaptop3.roam.corp.google.com
This patch (of 9):
Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a
common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper
for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are
really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure
it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make
a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also
to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM
killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive
user visible action.
This patch also changes some existing users and removes helpers which
are specific for them. In some cases this is not possible (e.g.
ext4_kvmalloc, libcfs_kvzalloc) because those seems to be broken and
require GFP_NO{FS,IO} context which is not vmalloc compatible in general
(note that the page table allocation is GFP_KERNEL). Those need to be
fixed separately.
While we are at it, document that __vmalloc{_node} about unsupported gfp
mask because there seems to be a lot of confusion out there.
kvmalloc_node will warn about GFP_KERNEL incompatible (which are not
superset) flags to catch new abusers. Existing ones would have to die
slowly.

Assign 'struct kern_ipc_perm' its own cacheline to avoid false sharing
with sysv ipc calls.
While the structure itself is rather read-mostly throughout the lifespan
of ipc, the spinlock causes most of the invalidations. One example is
commit 31a7c4746e ("ipc/sem.c: cacheline align the ipc spinlock for
semaphores"). Therefore, extend this to all ipc.
The effect of cacheline alignment on sems can be seen in sembench, which

Patch series "Expose task pid_ns_for_children to userspace".
pid_ns_for_children set by a task is known only to the task itself, and
it's impossible to identify it from outside.
It's a big problem for checkpoint/restore software like CRIU, because it
can't correctly handle tasks, that do setns(CLONE_NEWPID) in proccess of
their work. If they have a custom pid_ns_for_children before dump, they
must have the same ns after restore. Otherwise, restored task bumped
into enviroment it does not expect.
This patchset solves the problem. It exposes pid_ns_for_children to ns
directory in standard way with the name "pid_for_children":
~# ls /proc/5531/ns -l | grep pid
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 14 16:38 pid -> pid:[4026531836]

Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and
reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4.
Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.
This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel
parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec
support. Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of
fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump.
The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo
related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. The
second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note()
functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code. The third patch
removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump)
in powerpc. The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving
memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter. This
has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports,
for fadump as well. The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation
about use of crashkernel parameter.
This patch (of 5):
Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such

But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel
parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. This patch introduces
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config,
allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. There is no
functional change with this patch.

Bit searching functions accept "unsigned long" indices but
"nr_cpumask_bits" is "int" which is signed, so inevitable sign
extensions occur on x86_64. Those MOVSX are #1 MOVSX bloat by number of
uses across whole kernel.
Change "nr_cpumask_bits" to unsigned, this number can't be negative
after all. It allows to do implicit zero-extension on x86_64 without
MOVSX.
Change signed comparisons into unsigned comparisons where necessary.
Other uses looks fine because it is either argument passed to a function
or comparison is already unsigned.

When stealing pages from pageblock of a different migratetype, we count
how many free pages were stolen, and change the pageblock's migratetype
if more than half of the pageblock was free. This might be too
conservative, as there might be other pages that are not free, but were
allocated with the same migratetype as our allocation requested.
While we cannot determine the migratetype of allocated pages precisely
(at least without the page_owner functionality enabled), we can count
pages that compaction would try to isolate for migration - those are
either on LRU or __PageMovable(). The rest can be assumed to be
MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE or MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE, which we cannot easily
distinguish. This counting can be done as part of free page stealing
with little additional overhead.
The page stealing code is changed so that it considers free pages plus
pages of the "good" migratetype for the decision whether to change
pageblock's migratetype.
The result should be more accurate migratetype of pageblocks wrt the
actual pages in the pageblocks, when stealing from semi-occupied
pageblocks. This should help the efficiency of page grouping by
mobility.
In testing based on 4.9 kernel with stress-highalloc from mmtests
configured for order-4 GFP_KERNEL allocations, this patch has reduced
the number of unmovable allocations falling back to movable pageblocks
by 47%. The number of movable allocations falling back to other
pageblocks are increased by 55%, but these events don't cause permanent
fragmentation, so the tradeoff should be positive. Later patches also
offset the movable fallback increase to some extent.

For each netns (except init_net), we initialize its null entry
in 3 places:
1) The template itself, as we use kmemdup()
2) Code around dst_init_metrics() in ip6_route_net_init()
3) ip6_route_dev_notify(), which is supposed to initialize it after
loopback registers
Unfortunately the last one still happens in a wrong order because
we expect to initialize net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev to
net->loopback_dev's idev, thus we have to do that after we add
idev to loopback. However, this notifier has priority == 0 same as
ipv6_dev_notf, and ipv6_dev_notf is registered after
ip6_route_dev_notifier so it is called actually after
ip6_route_dev_notifier. This is similar to commit 2f460933f5
("ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()") which
fixes init_net.
Fix it by picking a smaller priority for ip6_route_dev_notifier.
Also, we have to release the refcnt accordingly when unregistering
loopback_dev because device exit functions are called before subsys
exit functions.
