The kernel has never been audited to ensure that this_cpu operations are
consistently used throughout the kernel. The code generated in many
places can be improved through the use of this_cpu operations (which
uses a segment register for relocation of per cpu offsets instead of
performing address calculations).
The patch set also addresses various consistency issues in general with
the per cpu macros.
A. The semantics of __this_cpu_ptr() differs from this_cpu_ptr only
because checks are skipped. This is typically shown through a raw_
prefix. So this patch set changes the places where __this_cpu_ptr()
is used to raw_cpu_ptr().
B. There has been the long term wish by some that __this_cpu operations
would check for preemption. However, there are cases where preemption
checks need to be skipped. This patch set adds raw_cpu operations that
do not check for preemption and then adds preemption checks to the
__this_cpu operations.
C. The use of __get_cpu_var is always a reference to a percpu variable
that can also be handled via a this_cpu operation. This patch set
replaces all uses of __get_cpu_var with this_cpu operations.
D. We can then use this_cpu RMW operations in various places replacing
sequences of instructions by a single one.
E. The use of this_cpu operations throughout will allow other arches than
x86 to implement optimized references and RMV operations to work with
per cpu local data.
F. The use of this_cpu operations opens up the possibility to
further optimize code that relies on synchronization through
per cpu data.
The patch set works in a couple of stages:
I. Patch 1 adds the additional raw_cpu operations and raw_cpu_ptr().
Also converts the existing __this_cpu_xx_# primitive in the x86
code to raw_cpu_xx_#.
II. Patch 2-4 use the raw_cpu operations in places that would give
us false positives once they are enabled.
III. Patch 5 adds preemption checks to __this_cpu operations to allow
checking if preemption is properly disabled when these functions
are used.
IV. Patches 6-20 are patches that simply replace uses of __get_cpu_var
with this_cpu_ptr. They do not depend on any changes to the percpu
code. No preemption tests are skipped if they are applied.
V. Patches 21-46 are conversion patches that use this_cpu operations
in various kernel subsystems/drivers or arch code.
VI. Patches 47/48 (not included in this series) remove no longer used
functions (__this_cpu_ptr and __get_cpu_var). These should only be
applied after all the conversion patches have made it and after we
have done additional passes through the kernel to ensure that none of
the uses of these functions remain.
This patch (of 46):
The patches following this one will add preemption checks to __this_cpu
ops so we need to have an alternative way to use this_cpu operations
without preemption checks.
raw_cpu_ops will be the basis for all other ops since these will be the
operations that do not implement any checks.
Primitive operations are renamed by this patch from __this_cpu_xxx to
raw_cpu_xxxx.
Also change the uses of the x86 percpu primitives in preempt.h.
These depend directly on asm/percpu.h (header #include nesting issue).

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and
ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port
accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So
HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.
Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.
The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT
that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at
least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and
catch new introductions of (HAS|NO)_IOPORT.
The changes in this commit were done using:
$ git grep -l -E '(NO|HAS)_IOPORT' | xargs perl -p -i -e 's/\b((?:CONFIG_)?(?:NO|HAS)_IOPORT)\b/$1_MAP/'

When !CONFIG_BUG, WARN_ON and family become simple passthroughs of their
condition argument; however, WARN_ON_ONCE and family still have conditions
and a boolean to detect one-time invocation, even though the warning
they'd emit doesn't exist. Make the existing definitions conditional on
CONFIG_BUG, and add definitions for !CONFIG_BUG that map to the
passthrough versions of WARN and WARN_ON.
This saves 4.4k on a minimized configuration (smaller than allnoconfig),
and 20.6k with defconfig plus CONFIG_BUG=n.

- Merged in a branch of irqchip changes from Thomas
Gleixner: we need to have new callbacks from the
irqchip to determine if the GPIO line will be eligible
for IRQs, and this callback must be able to say "no".
After some thinking I got the branch from tglx and
have switched all current users over to use this.
- Based on tglx patches, we have added some generic
irqchip helpers in the gpiolib core. These will
help centralize code when GPIO drivers have simple
chained/cascaded IRQs. Drivers will still define
their irqchip vtables, but the gpiolib core will
take care of irqdomain set-up, mapping from local
offsets to Linux irqs, and reserve resources by
marking the GPIO lines for IRQs.
- Initially the PL061 and Nomadik GPIO/pin control
drivers have been switched over to use the new
gpiochip-to-irqchip infrastructure with more
drivers expected for the next kernel cycle. The
factoring of just two drivers still makes it worth
it so it is already a win.
- A new driver for the Synopsys DesignWare APB GPIO
block.
- Modify the DaVinci GPIO driver to be reusable also
for the new TI Keystone architecture.
- A new driver for the LSI ZEVIO SoCs.
- Delete the obsolte tnetv107x driver.
- Some incremental work on GPIO descriptors: have
gpiod_direction_output() use a logical level,
respecting assertion polarity through ACTIVE_LOW
flags, adding gpiod_direction_output_raw() for the
case where you want to set that very value. Add
gpiochip_get_desc() to fetch a GPIO descriptor from
a specific offset on a certain chip inside driver
code.
- Switch ACPI GPIO code over to using
gpiochip_get_desc() and get rid of gpio_to_desc().
- The ACPI GPIO event handling code has been reworked
after encountering an actual real life implementation.
- Support for ACPI GPIO operation regions.
- Generic GPIO chips can now be assigned labels/names
from platform data.
- We now clamp values returned from GPIO drivers to
the boolean [0,1] range.
- Some improved documentation on how to use the polarity
flag was added.

Updates to devicetree core code. This branch contains the following notable changes:
* Add reserved memory binding
* Make struct device_node a kobject and remove legacy /proc/device-tree
* ePAPR conformance fixes
* Update in-kernel DTC copy to version v1.4.0
* Preparation changes for dynamic device tree overlays
* minor bug fixes and documentation changes
The most significant change in this branch is the conversion of struct
device_node to be a kobject that is exposed via sysfs and removal of the
old /proc/device-tree code. This simplifies the device tree handling
code and tightens up the lifecycle on device tree nodes.

Merge tag 'v3.13' into for-3.15
Linux 3.13
Conflicts:
include/net/xfrm.h
Simple merge where v3.13 removed 'extern' from definitions and the audit
tree did s/u32/unsigned int/ to the same definitions.
In a virtualized environment and given an appropriate interface the guest
can mark pages as unused while they are free (for the s390 implementation
see git commit 45e576b1c3 "guest page hinting light"). For the host
the unused state is a property of the pte.
This patch adds the primitive 'pte_unused' and code to the host swap out
handler so that pages marked as unused by all mappers are not swapped out
but discarded instead, thus saving one IO for swap out and potentially
another one for swap in.

Archs like ppc64 doesn't do tlb flush in set_pte/pmd functions when using
a hash table MMU for various reasons (the flush is handled as part of
the PTE modification when necessary).
ppc64 thus doesn't implement flush_tlb_range for hash based MMUs.
Additionally ppc64 require the tlb flushing to be batched within ptl locks.
The reason to do that is to ensure that the hash page table is in sync with
linux page table.
We track the hpte index in linux pte and if we clear them without flushing
hash and drop the ptl lock, we can have another cpu update the pte and can
end up with duplicate entry in the hash table, which is fatal.
We also want to keep set_pte_at simpler by not requiring them to do hash
flush for performance reason. We do that by assuming that set_pte_at() is
never *ever* called on a PTE that is already valid.
This was the case until the NUMA code went in which broke that assumption.
Fix that by introducing a new pair of helpers to set _PAGE_NUMA in a
way similar to ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect(), with a generic implementation
using set_pte_at() and a powerpc specific one using the appropriate
mechanism needed to keep the hash table in sync.

The goal of multi-platform kernels is to remove the need for mach
directories and machine descriptors. To further that goal,
introduce CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() to allow cpu hotplug/smp
support to be separated from the machine descriptors.
Implementers should specify an enable-method property in their
cpus node and then implement a matching set of smp_ops in their
hotplug/smp code, wiring it up with the CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE()
macro. When the kernel is compiled we'll collect all the
enable-method smp_ops into one section for use at boot.
At boot time we'll look for an enable-method in each cpu node and
try to match that against all known CPU enable methods in the
kernel. If there are no enable-methods in the cpu nodes we
fallback to the cpus node and try to use any enable-method found
there. If that doesn't work we fall back to the old way of using
the machine descriptor.

Enabling '-Wsign-compare' compiler warnings on code that includes

In file included from include/linux/kernel.h:10:0,

include/linux/bitops.h: In function 'hweight_long':
include/linux/bitops.h:77:26: error: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression [-Werror=sign-compare]
(converted to an error with -Werror)
This is due to the use of the logical negation operator '!' in the
__const_hweight8 macro in include/asm-generic/bitops/const_hweight.h.
The use of that operator here results in a signed value.
Fix by explicitly casting the __const_hweight8 macro expansion to
'unsigned int'. While here, clean up several checkpatch.pl warnings.

Pull powerpc mremap fix from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"This is the patch that I had sent after -rc8 and which we decided to
wait before merging. It's based on a different tree than my -next
branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next

It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back.
This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc.
The fix however requires a small change in the generic code. It moves
a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is
harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and
the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who
wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late...

Now all 64-bit architectures have been converted to int-ll64.h, we can
remove int-l64.h in kernelspace.
For backwards compatibility, alpha, ia64, mips64, and powerpc64 still
use int-l64.h in userspace.
This is the (reworked for UAPI) non-documentation part of more than two
year old "asm/types.h: All architectures use int-ll64.h in kernelspace"
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/13/104)
Since <asm/types.h> (from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h) is used for
both kernel and user space, include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h cannot just
become include/asm-generic/types.h, as Arnd suggested.

On ppc64 we use the pgtable for storing the hpte slot information and
store address to the pgtable at a constant offset (PTRS_PER_PMD) from

the pgtable again, so that we find the pgtable at PTRS_PER_PMD offset
from new pmd.
We also want to move the withdraw and deposit before the set_pmd so
that, when page fault find the pmd as trans huge we can be sure that
pgtable can be located at the offset.

Merge tag 'v3.13-rc8' into core/locking
Refresh the tree with the latest fixes, before applying new changes.
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.
This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.
In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.

We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
asm-generic/barrier.h.
Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.
There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.

Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing
page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being
a transparent huge-table entry.
The code - introduced in commit 1998cc0489 ("mm: make
madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks
for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it
turns out that that function doesn't work correctly.
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would
trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that
if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real
NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal
development systems would never actually trigger this.
Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation,
and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.

There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by
mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and
compaction on the other side.
The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets
made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed.
During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page.
This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration
code may come in, and migrate the page away.
When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached
translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the
process.
This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible.
All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush,
or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions
(SPARC).
The basic race looks like this:
CPU A CPU B CPU C
load TLB entry
make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA
fault on entry
read/write old page
start migrating page
change PTE/PMD to new page
read/write old page [*]
flush TLB
reload TLB from new entry
read/write new page
lose data
[*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point!
The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that
pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may
still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm.
This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

We introduce a new hashing library that is meant to be used in
the contexts where speed is more important than uniformity of the
hashed values. The hash library leverages architecture specific
implementation to achieve high performance and fall backs to
jhash() for the generic case.
On Intel-based x86 architectures, the library can exploit the crc32l
instruction, part of the Intel SSE4.2 instruction set, if the
instruction is supported by the processor. This implementation
is twice as fast as the jhash() implementation on an i7 processor.
Additional architectures, such as Arm64 provide instructions for
accelerating the computation of CRC, so they could be added as well
in follow-up work.

While hunting a preemption issue with Alexander, Ben noticed that the
currently generic PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED stuff is horribly broken for
load-store architectures.
We currently rely on the IPI to fold TIF_NEED_RESCHED into
PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED, but when this IPI lands while we already have
a load for the preempt-count but before the store, the store will erase
the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED change.
The current preempt-count only works on load-store archs because
interrupts are assumed to be completely balanced wrt their preempt_count
fiddling; the previous preempt_count load will match the preempt_count
state after the interrupt and therefore nothing gets lost.
This patch removes the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED usage from generic code and
pushes it into x86 arch code; the generic code goes back to relying on
TIF_NEED_RESCHED.
Boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on ppc64.

- Merged the GPIO descriptor API from Alexandre Courbot.
This is a first step toward trying to get rid of the
global GPIO numberspace for the future.
- Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO
line is being used by a irqchip backend for generating
IRQs, so that we can enforce checks, like not allowing
users to switch that line to an output at runtime, since
this makes no sense. Implemented corresponding calls
in a few select drivers.
- ACPI GPIO cleanups, refactorings and switch to using the
descriptor-based interface.
- Support for the TPS80036 Palmas GPIO variant.
- A new driver for the Broadcom Kona GPIO SoC IP block.
- Device tree support for the PCF857x driver.
- A set of ARM GPIO refactorings with the goal of getting
rid of a bunch of custom GPIO implementations from the
arch/arm/* tree:
- Move the IOP GPIO driver to the GPIO subsystem and
fix all users to use the gpiolib API for accessing
GPIOs. Delete the old custom GPIO implementation.
- Delete the unused custom PXA GPIO implemention.
- Convert all users of the IXP4 custom GPIO
implementation to use gpiolib and delete the custom
implementation.
- Delete the custom Gemini GPIO implementation, also
completely unused.
- Various cleanups and renamings.

first step toward trying to get rid of the global GPIO numberspace
for the future.
- Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO line is
being used by a irqchip backend for generating IRQs, so that we can
enforce checks, like not allowing users to switch that line to an
output at runtime, since this makes no sense. Implemented
corresponding calls in a few select drivers.
- ACPI GPIO cleanups, refactorings and switch to using the
descriptor-based interface.
- Support for the TPS80036 Palmas GPIO variant.
- A new driver for the Broadcom Kona GPIO SoC IP block.
- Device tree support for the PCF857x driver.
- A set of ARM GPIO refactorings with the goal of getting rid of a
bunch of custom GPIO implementations from the arch/arm/* tree:
* Move the IOP GPIO driver to the GPIO subsystem and fix all users
to use the gpiolib API for accessing GPIOs. Delete the old
custom GPIO implementation.
* Delete the unused custom PXA GPIO implemention.
* Convert all users of the IXP4 custom GPIO implementation to use
gpiolib and delete the custom implementation.
* Delete the custom Gemini GPIO implementation, also completely
unused.
- Various cleanups and renamings"

This patch exports the gpiod_* family of API functions, a safer
alternative to the legacy GPIO interface. Differences between the gpiod
and legacy gpio APIs are:
- gpio works with integers, whereas gpiod operates on opaque handlers
which cannot be forged or used before proper acquisition
- gpiod get/set functions are aware of the active low state of a GPIO
- gpio consumers should now include <linux/gpio/consumer.h> to access
the new interface, whereas chips drivers will use
<linux/gpio/driver.h>
The legacy gpio API is now built as inline functions on top of gpiod.

It is currently often possible in many GPIO drivers to request
a GPIO line to be used as IRQ after calling gpio_to_irq() and,
as the gpiolib is not aware of this, set the same line to
output and start driving it, with undesired side effects.
As it is a bogus usage scenario to request a line flagged as
output to used as IRQ, we introduce APIs to let gpiolib track
the use of a line as IRQ, and also set this flag from the
userspace ABI.
The API is symmetric so that lines can also be flagged from
.irq_enable() and unflagged from IRQ by .irq_disable().
The debugfs file is altered so that we see if a line is
reserved for IRQ.

The include/asm-generic/hugetlb.h stubs that just vector huge_pte_*()
calls to the pte_*() implementations won't work in certain situations.
x86 and sparc, for example, return "unsigned long" from the bit
checks, and just go "return pte_val(pte) & PTE_BIT_FOO;"
But since huge_pte_*() returns 'int', if any high bits on 64-bit are
relevant, they get chopped off.
The net effect is that we can loop forever trying to COW a huge page,
because the huge_pte_write() check signals false all the time.

Yuanhan reported a serious throughput regression in his pigz
benchmark. Using the ftrace patch I found that several idle
paths need more TLC before we can switch the generic
need_resched() over to preempt_need_resched.
The preemption paths benefit most from preempt_need_resched and
do indeed use it; all other need_resched() users don't really
care that much so reverting need_resched() back to
tif_need_resched() is the simple and safe solution.

The last remaining use for the storage key of the s390 architecture
is reference counting. The alternative is to make page table entries
invalid while they are old. On access the fault handler marks the
pte/pmd as young which makes the pte/pmd valid if the access rights
allow read access. The pte/pmd invalidations required for software
managed reference bits cost a bit of performance, on the other hand
the RRBE/RRBM instructions to read and reset the referenced bits are
quite expensive as well.

This patch cleans the initialization of dma contiguous framework. The
all-in-one dma_declare_contiguous() function is now separated into
dma_contiguous_reserve_area() which only steals the the memory from
memblock allocator and dma_contiguous_add_device() function, which
assigns given device to the specified reserved memory area. This improves
the flexibility in defining contiguous memory areas and assigning device
to them, because now it is possible to assign more than one device to
the given contiguous memory area. Such split in initialization procedure
is also required for upcoming device tree support.

Ben Tebulin reported:
"Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git
repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory
failures. This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be
reproduced stably on two independent laptops. Git mailing list ran
out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue"
and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f ("mm:
limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT").
That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.
The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered. It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580 ("mm/mmu_gather:
enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling
was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96c ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.
The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB. And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.
Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.
This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler. And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.
Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

Andy Lutomirski reported that if a page with _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set
get swapped out, the bit is getting lost and no longer available when
pte read back.
To resolve this we introduce _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit which is saved in
pte entry for the page being swapped out. When such page is to be read
back from a swap cache we check for bit presence and if it's there we
clear it and restore the former _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit back.
One of the problem was to find a place in pte entry where we can save
the _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit while page is in swap. The _PAGE_PSE was
chosen for that, it doesn't intersect with swap entry format stored in
pte.

There are several tracepoints (mostly in RCU), that reference a string
pointer and uses the print format of "%s" to display the string that
exists in the kernel, instead of copying the actual string to the
ring buffer (saves time and ring buffer space).
But this has an issue with userspace tools that read the binary buffers
that has the address of the string but has no access to what the string
itself is. The end result is just output that looks like:
rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeaa 1 0
rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
rcu_utilization: ffffffff8184333b
rcu_utilization: ffffffff8184333b
The above is pretty useless when read by the userspace tools. Ideally
we would want something that looks like this:
rcu_dyntick: Start 1 0
rcu_dyntick: End 0 140000000000000
rcu_dyntick: Start 140000000000000 0
rcu_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880037aff710 func=put_cred_rcu 0/4
rcu_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880078961980 func=file_free_rcu 0/5
rcu_dyntick: End 0 1
The trace_printk() which also only stores the address of the string
format instead of recording the string into the buffer itself, exports
the mapping of kernel addresses to format strings via the printk_format
file in the debugfs tracing directory.
The tracepoint strings can use this same method and output the format
to the same file and the userspace tools will be able to decipher
the address without any modification.
The tracepoint strings need its own section to save the strings because
the trace_printk section will cause the trace_printk() buffers to be
allocated if anything exists within the section. trace_printk() is only
used for debugging and should never exist in the kernel, we can not use
the trace_printk sections.
Add a new tracepoint_str section that will also be examined by the output
of the printk_format file.

"This is the powerpc changes for the 3.11 merge window. In addition to
the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are:
- Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit
server processors. This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent
huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size.
- Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy
- Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including
putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah
- Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling
and recovery) infrastructure. It is no longer specific to pseries
but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no
hypervisor) by Gavin Shan.
- I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it
usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with
hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded
processors).
- Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael
Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace
interrupts" for performance monitor events.
- A bunch of Transactional Memory vs. Signals bug fixes and HW
breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable
kernel modules.
This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch
drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method. To simplify
registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces
rio_switch_ops data structure. The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from
the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its
functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines.
If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem
core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch.
Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method
relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management,
switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO
enumeration/discovery starts.
This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery
module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations
accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

The original goal of this patchset is to fix the bug reported by
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53501 Now it has also been
expanded to reduce common code used by memory initializion.
Patch 1-7:
1) add comments for global variables exported by vmlinux.lds
2) normalize global variables exported by vmlinux.lds
Patch 8:
Introduce helper functions mem_init_print_info() and
get_num_physpages()
Patch 9:
Avoid using global variable num_physpages at runtime
Patch 10:
Don't update num_physpages in memory_hotplug.c
Patch 11-40:
Modify arch mm initialization code to:
1) Simplify mem_init() by using mem_init_print_info()
2) Prepare for killing global variable num_physpages
Patch 41:
Kill the global variable num_physpages
With all patches applied, mem_init(), free_initmem(), free_initrd_mem()
could be as simple as below. This patch series has reduced about 1.2K
lines of code in total.
#ifndef CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM

The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to. In order to do this tracking one should
1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
2. Wait some time.
3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)
To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is. Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.
Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast. This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.
Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.

Pull voluntary preemption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains a speedup which is achieved through better
might_sleep()/might_fault() preemption point annotations for uaccess
functions, by Michael S Tsirkin:
1. The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault.
Make this explicit for all architectures.
2. A voluntary preemption point in uaccess functions means compiler
can't inline them efficiently, this breaks assumptions that they
are very fast and small that e.g. net code seems to make. Remove
this preemption point so behaviour matches with what callers
assume.
3. Accesses (e.g through socket ops) to kernel memory with KERNEL_DS
like net/sunrpc does will never sleep. Remove an unconditinal
might_sleep() in the might_fault() inline in kernel.h (used when
PROVE_LOCKING is not set).
4. Accesses with pagefault_disable() return EFAULT but won't cause
caller to sleep. Check for that and thus avoid might_sleep() when
PROVE_LOCKING is set.
These changes offer a nice speedup for CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y

machine and the host:

Wound/wait mutexes are used when other multiple lock acquisitions of a

used here is called wait/wound in the RDBMS literature: The older
tasks waits until it can acquire the contended lock. The younger
tasks needs to back off and drop all the locks it is currently
holding, ie the younger task is wounded.

This will allow me to call functions that have multiple
arguments if fastpath fails. This is required to support ticket
mutexes, because they need to be able to pass an extra argument
to the fail function.
Originally I duplicated the functions, by adding
__mutex_fastpath_lock_retval_arg. This ended up being just a
duplication of the existing function, so a way to test if
fastpath was called ended up being better.
This also cleaned up the reservation mutex patch some by being
able to call an atomic_set instead of atomic_xchg, and making it
easier to detect if the wrong unlock function was previously
used.

it frees pages first and invalidates TLBs later.
However now we can get concurrency and stuff goes *bang*.
This patch removes all tlb_fast_mode() code; it was found the better
option vs trying to patch the hole by entangling tlb invalidation with
