2017-02-16Merge branch '10GbE' of ↵David S. Miller
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-02-16 This series contains updates to ixgbe only. Tony updates the driver to advertise 2.5Gb and 5.0Gb if the adapter supports it. Stephen Hemminger renames our dcbnl_ops since it is global to ixgbe_dcbnl_ops to avoid namespace issues. Mark updates the driver version based on the recent changes. Alex has the remainder of the changes, starting with consolidating functions that represent logical steps in the receive process so we can later update them more easily (and align with igb). Modify the receive path to only synchronize the length of the frame versus the entire buffer. Provided performance improvements by adding support for DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC and DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING. Also made additional performance gains by batching the page count updates instead of doing them one at a time. Adjusted the receive path to use 3k buffers with 8k backing them in order to support build_skb with jumbo frames. Made additional driver improvements by using the length of the packet instead of the DD status to determine if a new descriptor is ready to be processed, which cuts down on reads. To reduce code duplication, pulled apart the receive path into separate functions. Added support for providing a buffer with headroom and tailroom to allow for shared info for NET_SKB_PAD and NET_IP_ALIGN. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2017-02-16usercopy: Adjust tests to deal with SMAP/PANKees Cook
Under SMAP/PAN/etc, we cannot write directly to userspace memory, so this rearranges the test bytes to get written through copy_to_user(). Additionally drops the bad copy_from_user() test that would trigger a memcpy() against userspace on failure. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
2017-02-16usercopy: add testcases to check zeroing on failureHoeun Ryu
During usercopy the destination buffer will be zeroed if copy_from_user() or get_user() fails. This patch adds testcases for it. The destination buffer is set with non-zero value before illegal copy_from_user() or get_user() is executed and the buffer is compared to zero after usercopy is done.

2017-02-16Revert "nohz: Fix collision between tick and other hrtimers"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 24b91e360ef521a2808771633d76ebc68bd5604b and commit 7bdb59f1ad47 ("tick/nohz: Fix possible missing clock reprog after tick soft restart") that depends on it, Pavel reports that it causes occasional boot hangs for him that seem to depend on just how the machine was booted. In particular, his machine hangs at around the PCI fixups of the EHCI USB host controller, but only hangs from cold boot, not from a warm boot. Thomas Gleixner suspecs it's a CPU hotplug interaction, particularly since Pavel also saw suspend/resume issues that seem to be related. We're reverting for now while trying to figure out the root cause.

2017-02-16x86/mm/ptdump: Optimize check for W+X mappings for CONFIG_KASAN=yAndrey Ryabinin
Enabling both DEBUG_WX=y and KASAN=y options significantly increases boot time (dozens of seconds at least). KASAN fills kernel page tables with repeated values to map several TBs of the virtual memory to the single kasan_zero_page: kasan_zero_pud -> kasan_zero_pmd-> kasan_zero_pte-> kasan_zero_page So, the page table walker used to find W+X mapping check the same kasan_zero_p?d page table entries a lot more than once. With patch pud walker will skip the pud if it has the same value as the previous one . Skipping done iff we search for W+X mappings, so this optimization won't affect the page table dump via debugfs. This dropped time spend in W+X check from ~30 sec to reasonable 0.1 sec: Before: [ 4.579991] Freeing unused kernel memory: 1000K [ 35.257523] x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found.

2017-02-16regulator: core: Resolve supplies before disabling unused regulatorsJavier Martinez Canillas
After commit 66d228a2bf03 ("regulator: core: Don't use regulators as supplies until the parent is bound"), input supplies aren't resolved if the input supplies parent device has not been bound. This prevent regulators to hold an invalid reference if its supply parent device driver probe is deferred. But this causes issues on some boards where a PMIC's regulator use as input supply a regulator from another PMIC whose driver is registered after the driver for the former. In this case the regulators for the first PMIC will fail to resolve input supplies on regulators registration (since the other PMIC wasn't probed yet). And when the core attempts to resolve again latter when the other PMIC registers its own regulators, it will fail again since the parent device isn't bound yet. This will cause some parent supplies to never be resolved and wrongly be disabled on boot due taking them as unused. To solve this problem, also attempt to resolve the pending regulators input supplies before disabling the unused regulators.

2017-02-16Staging: comedi: drivers: comedi_test: Add auto-configuration capabilityCheah Kok Cheong
Currently this module needs to be manually configured by COMEDI userspace tool before the test waveform can be read by a COMEDI compatible application. This patch adds auto-configuration capability and makes it the default loading option. This is achieved by creating a device during init to stand in for a real hardware device. This allows comedi_auto_config() to perform auto-configuration. With this patch, the test waveform can be read by a COMEDI compatible application without needing manual configuration. Previous behaviour is still selectable via module loading parameter. Module loading without passing any parameter will default to auto-configuration with the same default waveform amplitude and period values. For auto-configuration, different amplitude and period values can be set via module loading parameters. Tested on Xubuntu 16.04 using Xoscope ver: 2.0 which is available in the Ubuntu repository. Xoscope is a COMEDI compatible digital oscilloscope application. For manual configuration, only module loading/unloading is tested. Here are the truncated dmesg output. [sudo modprobe comedi_test] comedi_test: 1000000 microvolt, 100000 microsecond waveform attached driver 'comedi_test' has successfully auto-configured 'comedi_test'. [sudo modprobe comedi_test amplitude=2500000 period=150000] comedi_test: 2500000 microvolt, 150000 microsecond waveform attached driver 'comedi_test' has successfully auto-configured 'comedi_test'. [sudo modprobe comedi_test noauto=1] comedi_test: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned. For those without an actual hardware, the comedi_test module is as close as one can get to test the COMEDI system. Having both auto and manual configuration capability will broaden the test function of this module. Hopefully this will make it easier for people to check out the COMEDI system and contribute to its development.
