The phy-rcar-gen2-usb driver, which supports legacy platform data only,
is no longer used since commit a483dcbfa2 ("ARM: shmobile: lager:
Remove legacy board support").
This driver was superseded by the DT-only phy-rcar-gen2 driver, which
was introduced in commit 1233f59f74 ("phy: Renesas R-Car Gen2 PHY
driver").

More accurately, listen all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns
where the netlink socket is opened.
For this purpose, a netlink socket option is added:
NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID. When this option is set on a netlink socket, this
socket will receive netlink notifications from all netns that have a nsid
assigned into the netns where the socket has been opened. The nsid is sent
to userland via an anscillary data.
With this patch, a daemon needs only one socket to listen many netns. This
is useful when the number of netns is high.
Because 0 is a valid value for a nsid, the field nsid_is_set indicates if
the field nsid is valid or not. skb->cb is initialized to 0 on skb
allocation, thus we are sure that we will never send a nsid 0 by error to
the userland.

Seccomp has always been a special candidate when it comes to preparation
of its filters in seccomp_prepare_filter(). Due to the extra checks and
filter rewrite it partially duplicates code and has BPF internals exposed.
This patch adds a generic API inside the BPF code code that seccomp can use
and thus keep it's filter preparation code minimal and better maintainable.
The other side-effect is that now classic JITs can add seccomp support as
well by only providing a BPF_LDX | BPF_W | BPF_ABS translation.
Tested with seccomp and BPF test suites.

Remove the calls to bpf_check_classic(), bpf_convert_filter() and
bpf_migrate_runtime() and let bpf_prepare_filter() take care of that
instead.
seccomp_check_filter() is passed to bpf_prepare_filter() so that it
gets called from there, after bpf_check_classic().
We can now remove exposure of two internal classic BPF functions
previously used by seccomp. The export of bpf_check_classic() symbol,
previously known as sk_chk_filter(), was there since pre git times,
and no in-tree module was using it, therefore remove it.

This is in preparation for use by the seccomp code, the rationale is
not to duplicate additional code within the seccomp layer, but instead,
have it abstracted and hidden within the classic BPF API.
As an interim step, this now also makes bpf_prepare_filter() visible
(not as exported symbol though), so that seccomp can reuse that code
path instead of reimplementing it.

(this required changing other locking as well)
* mac80211 "fast-xmit", a mechanism to reduce, in most cases, the

With the advent of small rto timers in datacenter TCP,
(ip route ... rto_min x), the following can happen :
1) Qdisc is full, transmit fails.
TCP sets a timer based on icsk_rto to retry the transmit, without
exponential backoff.
With low icsk_rto, and lot of sockets, all cpus are servicing timer
interrupts like crazy.
Intent of the code was to retry with a timer between 200 (TCP_RTO_MIN)
and 500ms (TCP_RESOURCE_PROBE_INTERVAL)
2) Receivers can send zero windows if they don't drain their receive queue.
TCP sends zero window probes, based on icsk_rto current value, with
exponential backoff.
With /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_retries2 being 15 (or even smaller in
some cases), sender can abort in less than one or two minutes !
If receiver stops the sender, it obviously doesn't care of very tight
rto. Probability of dropping the ACK reopening the window is not
worth the risk.
Lets change the base timer to be at least 200ms (TCP_RTO_MIN) for these
events (but not normal RTO based retransmits)
A followup patch adds a new SNMP counter, as it would have helped a lot
diagnosing this issue.

DMA routers are transparent devices used to mux DMA requests from
peripherals to DMA controllers. They are used when the SoC integrates more
devices with DMA requests then their controller can handle.
DRA7x is one example of such SoC, where the sDMA can hanlde 128 DMA request
lines, but in SoC level it has 205 DMA requests.
The of_dma_router will be registered as of_dma_controller with special
xlate function and additional parameters. The driver for the router is
responsible to craft the dma_spec (in the of_dma_route_allocate callback)
which can be used to requests a DMA channel from the real DMA controller.
This way the router can be transparent for the system while remaining generic
enough to be used in different environments.

Displayport compliance test 4.2.2.6 requires that a source device be capable of
detecting a corrupt EDID. The test specification states that the sink device
sets up the EDID with an invalid checksum. To do this, the sink sets up an
invalid EDID header, expecting the source device to generate the checksum and
compare it to the value stored in the last byte of the block data.
Unfortunately, the DRM EDID reading and parsing functions are actually too good
in this case; the header is fixed before the checksum is computed and thus the
test never sees the invalid checksum. This results in a failure to pass the
compliance test.
To correct this issue, when the EDID code detects that the header is invalid,
a flag is set to indicate that the EDID is corrupted. In this case, it sets
edid_corrupt flag and continues with its fix-up code. This flag is also set in
the case of a more seriously damaged header (fixup score less than the
threshold). For consistency, the edid_corrupt flag is also set when the
checksum is invalid as well.
V2:
- Removed the static bool global
- Added a bool to the drm_connector struct to reaplce the static one for
holding the status of raw edid header corruption detection
- Modified the function signature of the is_valid function to take an
additional parameter to store the corruption detected value
- Fixed the other callers of the above is_valid function
V3:
- Updated the commit message to be more clear about what and why this
patch does what it does.
- Added comment in code to clarify the operations there
- Removed compliance variable and check_link_status update; those
have been moved to a later patch
- Removed variable assignment from the bottom of the test handler
V4:
- Removed i915 tag from subject line as the patch is not i915-specific
V5:
- Moved code causing a compilation error to this patch where the variable
is actually declared
- Maintained blank lines / spacing so as to not contaminate the patch
V6:
- Removed extra debug messages
- Added documentation to for the added parameter on drm_edid_block_valid
- Fixed more whitespace issues in check_link_status
- Added a clear of the header_corrupt flag to the end of the test handler
in intel_dp.c
- Changed the usage of the new function prototype in several places to use
NULL where it is not needed by compliance testing
V7:
- Updated to account for long_pulse flag propagation
V8:
- Removed clearing of header_corrupt flag from the test handler in intel_dp.c
- Added clearing of header_corrupt flag in the drm_edid_block_valid function
V9:
- Renamed header_corrupt flag to edid_corrupt to more accurately reflect its
value and purpose
- Updated commit message
V10:
- Updated for versioning and patch swizzle
- Revised the title to more accurately reflect the nature and contents of

This patch introduces a new generic queued spinlock implementation that
can serve as an alternative to the default ticket spinlock. Compared
with the ticket spinlock, this queued spinlock should be almost as fair
as the ticket spinlock. It has about the same speed in single-thread
and it can be much faster in high contention situations especially when
the spinlock is embedded within the data structure to be protected.
Only in light to moderate contention where the average queue depth
is around 1-3 will this queued spinlock be potentially a bit slower
due to the higher slowpath overhead.
This queued spinlock is especially suit to NUMA machines with a large
number of cores as the chance of spinlock contention is much higher
in those machines. The cost of contention is also higher because of
slower inter-node memory traffic.
Due to the fact that spinlocks are acquired with preemption disabled,
the process will not be migrated to another CPU while it is trying
to get a spinlock. Ignoring interrupt handling, a CPU can only be
contending in one spinlock at any one time. Counting soft IRQ, hard
IRQ and NMI, a CPU can only have a maximum of 4 concurrent lock waiting
activities. By allocating a set of per-cpu queue nodes and used them
to form a waiting queue, we can encode the queue node address into a
much smaller 24-bit size (including CPU number and queue node index)
leaving one byte for the lock.
Please note that the queue node is only needed when waiting for the
lock. Once the lock is acquired, the queue node can be released to
be used later.

In up_write()/up_read(), rwsem_wake() will be called whenever it
detects that some writers/readers are waiting. The rwsem_wake()
function will take the wait_lock and call __rwsem_do_wake() to do the
real wakeup. For a heavily contended rwsem, doing a spin_lock() on
wait_lock will cause further contention on the heavily contended rwsem
cacheline resulting in delay in the completion of the up_read/up_write
operations.
This patch makes the wait_lock taking and the call to __rwsem_do_wake()
optional if at least one spinning writer is present. The spinning
writer will be able to take the rwsem and call rwsem_wake() later
when it calls up_write(). With the presence of a spinning writer,
rwsem_wake() will now try to acquire the lock using trylock. If that
fails, it will just quit.

This is useful for locking primitives that can effect multiple
wakeups per operation and want to avoid lock internal lock contention
by delaying the wakeups until we've released the lock internal locks.
Alternatively it can be used to avoid issuing multiple wakeups, and
thus save a few cycles, in packet processing. Queue all target tasks
and wakeup once you've processed all packets. That way you avoid
waking the target task multiple times if there were multiple packets
for the same task.
Properties of a wake_q are:
- Lockless, as queue head must reside on the stack.
- Being a queue, maintains wakeup order passed by the callers. This can
be important for otherwise, in scenarios where highly contended locks
could affect any reliance on lock fairness.
- A queued task cannot be added again until it is woken up.
This patch adds the needed infrastructure into the scheduler code
and uses the new wake_list to delay the futex wakeups until
after we've released the hash bucket locks.

While running a database workload, we found a scalability issue with itimers.
Much of the problem was caused by the thread_group_cputimer spinlock.
Each time we account for group system/user time, we need to obtain a
thread_group_cputimer's spinlock to update the timers. On larger systems
(such as a 16 socket machine), this caused more than 30% of total time
spent trying to obtain this kernel lock to update these group timer stats.
This patch converts the timers to 64-bit atomic variables and use
atomic add to update them without a lock. With this patch, the percent
of total time spent updating thread group cputimer timers was reduced
from 30% down to less than 1%.
Note: On 32-bit systems using the generic 64-bit atomics, this causes
sample_group_cputimer() to take locks 3 times instead of just 1 time.
However, we tested this patch on a 32-bit system ARM system using the
generic atomics and did not find the overhead to be much of an issue.
An explanation for why this isn't an issue is that 32-bit systems usually
have small numbers of CPUs, and cacheline contention from extra spinlocks
called periodically is not really apparent on smaller systems.

I could not find the loadavg code.. turns out it was hidden in a file
called proc.c. It further got mingled up with the cruft per rq load
indexes (which we really want to get rid of).
Move the per rq load indexes into the fair.c load-balance code (that's
the only thing that uses them) and rename proc.c to loadavg.c so we
can find it again.

Ronny reported that the following scenario is not handled correctly:
T1 (prio = 10)
lock(rtmutex);
T2 (prio = 20)
lock(rtmutex)
boost T1
T1 (prio = 20)
sys_set_scheduler(prio = 30)
T1 prio = 30
....
sys_set_scheduler(prio = 10)
T1 prio = 30
The last step is wrong as T1 should now be back at prio 20.
Commit c365c292d0 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()")
only handles the case where a boosted tasks tries to lower its
priority.
Fix it by taking the new effective priority into account for the
decision whether a change of the priority is required.

Pull infiniband updates from Doug Ledford:
"Minor updates for 4.1-rc
Most of the changes are fairly small and well confined. The iWARP
address reporting changes are the only ones that are a medium size. I
had these queued up prior to rc1, but due to the shuffle in
maintainers, they did not get submitted when I expected. My apologies
for that. I feel comfortable with them however due to the testing
they've received, so I left them in this submission"

Currently KVM will clear the FPU bits in CR0.TS in the VMCS, and trap to
re-load them every time the guest accesses the FPU after a switch back into
the guest from the host.
This patch copies the x86 task switch semantics for FPU loading, with the
FPU loaded eagerly after first use if the system uses eager fpu mode,
or if the guest uses the FPU frequently.
In the latter case, after loading the FPU for 255 times, the fpu_counter
will roll over, and we will revert to loading the FPU on demand, until
it has been established that the guest is still actively using the FPU.
This mirrors the x86 task switch policy, which seems to work.
