Paul Mackerras 2743a5b0fa perfcounters: provide expansion room in the ABI
Impact: ABI change

This expands several fields in the perf_counter_hw_event struct and adds
a "flags" argument to the perf_counter_open system call, in order that
features can be added in future without ABI changes.

In particular the record_type field is expanded to 64 bits, and the
space for flag bits has been expanded from 32 to 64 bits.

This also adds some new fields:

* read_format (64 bits) is intended to provide a way to specify what
  userspace wants to get back when it does a read() on a simple
  (non-interrupting) counter;

* exclude_idle (1 bit) provides a way for userspace to ask that events
  that occur when the cpu is idle be excluded;

* extra_config_len will provide a way for userspace to supply an
  arbitrary amount of extra machine-specific PMU configuration data
  immediately following the perf_counter_hw_event struct, to allow
  sophisticated users to program things such as instruction matching
  CAMs and address range registers;

* __reserved_3 and __reserved_4 provide space for future expansion.

Paul Mackerras f3dfd2656d perfcounters: fix a few minor cleanliness issues
This fixes three issues noticed by Arnd Bergmann:

- Add #ifdef __KERNEL__ and move some things around in perf_counter.h
  to make sure only the bits that userspace needs are exported to
  userspace.

- Use __u64, __s64, __u32 types in the structs exported to userspace
  rather than u64, s64, u32.

- Make the sys_perf_counter_open syscall available to the SPUs on
  Cell platforms.

And one issue that I noticed in looking at the code again:

- Wrap the perf_counter_open syscall with SYSCALL_DEFINE4 so we get
  the proper handling of int arguments on ppc64 (and some other 64-bit
  architectures).

Venkatesh Pallipadi 4ab0d47d0a gpu/drm, x86, PAT: io_mapping_create_wc and resource_size_t
io_mapping_create_wc should take a resource_size_t parameter in place of
unsigned long. With unsigned long, there will be no way to map greater than 4GB
address in i386/32 bit.

On x86, greater than 4GB addresses cannot be mapped on i386 without PAE. Return
error for such a case.

Patch also adds a structure for io_mapping, that saves the base, size and
type on HAVE_ATOMIC_IOMAP archs, that can be used to verify the offset on
io_mapping_map calls.

Add a 'total bytes copied' parameter to __copy_from_user_*nocache(),

The parameter is not used yet - architecture code can use it to

Jean Delvare cd97f39b7c i2c-dev: Clarify the unit of ioctl I2C_TIMEOUT
The unit in which user-space can set the bus timeout value is jiffies
for historical reasons (back when HZ was always 100.) This is however
not good because user-space doesn't know how long a jiffy lasts. The
timeout value should instead be set in a fixed time unit. Given the
original value of HZ, this unit should be 10 ms, for compatibility.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab b6adea334c 8250: fix boot hang with serial console when using with Serial Over Lan port
Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan.

This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by
kernel as a normal 8250 port.  However, this emulation is not perfect, as
also noticed on changeset 7500b1f602.

Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is
capable of work using IRQ's.

This were done with a code similar this:

        serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI);
        lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR);
        iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR);
        serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0);

        if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT)
		up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN;

This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the
chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register.

Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled.  However, as TX IRQ keeps
working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the
IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the
serial console.

This is the 6 version of this patch.  Previous versions were trying to
introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up,
UART_IIR), but not taking forever.  However, the needed delay couldn't be
safely determined.

At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but
still hangs sometimes.  Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still
doesn't solve.  A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time.

However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't
seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk.

So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just
disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

Johannes Weiner 3ef0e5ba46 slab: introduce kzfree()
kzfree() is a wrapper for kfree() that additionally zeroes the underlying
memory before releasing it to the slab allocator.

Currently there is code which memset()s the memory region of an object
before releasing it back to the slab allocator to make sure
security-sensitive data are really zeroed out after use.

These callsites can then just use kzfree() which saves some code, makes
users greppable and allows for a stupid destructor that isn't necessarily
aware of the actual object size.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki f2dbcfa738 mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()
What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages()
is triggering:

	BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page));

Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations:

	if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) {
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: "
		       "start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n",
		       start_page, end_page, zone);
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
		       "start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n",
		       page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page));
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
		       "start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n",
		       page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page));
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
		       "start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n",
		       page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page));
 ...

And here's what I got:

	move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00]
	move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00]
	move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff]
	move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0]

[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d

So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers
the problem.

This patch:

Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include
files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used.
 I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy.

This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h

After this,
  if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
     -> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h
  else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
     -> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c
  else
     -> per-arch back end function will be called.

Dan Williams 287d859222 atmel-mci: fix initialization of dma slave data
The conversion of atmel-mci to dma_request_channel missed the
initialization of the channel dma_slave information.  The filter_fn passed
to dma_request_channel is responsible for initializing the channel's
private data.  This implementation has the additional benefit of enabling
a generic client-channel data passing mechanism.

Nick Piggin 1cf6e7d83b mm: task dirty accounting fix
YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for
cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty).

Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is
called.  It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback.

So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to
exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented.

Davide Libenzi 610d18f412 timerfd: add flags check
As requested by Michael, add a missing check for valid flags in
timerfd_settime(), and make it return EINVAL in case some extra bits are
set.

Michael said:
If this is to be any use to userland apps that want to check flag
support (perhaps it is too late already), then the sooner we get it
into the kernel the better: 2.6.29 would be good; earlier stables as
well would be even better.

Eric Biederman 8f19d47293 seq_file: properly cope with pread
Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the
offset it passed to user space.  In the case pread this assumption is
broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread.

To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we
know where our logical file position is.  Then in seq_read if we try to
read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to
the offset user space wanted.

Paul Turner 55ec82176e vfs: separate FMODE_PREAD/FMODE_PWRITE into separate flags
Separate FMODE_PREAD and FMODE_PWRITE into separate flags to reflect the
reality that the read and write paths may have independent restrictions.

A git grep verifies that these flags are always cleared together so this
new behavior will only apply to interfaces that change to clear flags
individually.

This is required for "seq_file: properly cope with pread", a post-2.6.25
regression fix.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt c296861291 vmalloc: add __get_vm_area_caller()
We have get_vm_area_caller() and __get_vm_area() but not
__get_vm_area_caller()

On powerpc, I use __get_vm_area() to separate the ranges of addresses
given to vmalloc vs.  ioremap (various good reasons for that) so in order
to be able to implement the new caller tracking in /proc/vmallocinfo, I
need a "_caller" variant of it.

(akpm: needed for ongoing powerpc development, so merge it early)

David S. Miller 92a0acce18 net: Kill skb_truesize_check(), it only catches false-positives.
A long time ago we had bugs, primarily in TCP, where we would modify
skb->truesize (for TSO queue collapsing) in ways which would corrupt
the socket memory accounting.

skb_truesize_check() was added in order to try and catch this error
more systematically.

However this debugging check has morphed into a Frankenstein of sorts
and these days it does nothing other than catch false-positives.
