ACPICA commit 33140b4498666337dd33a00cf3c4797a53981a7b
Changes for a new version of the 3rd party spec for these tables,
the "TCG ACPI Specification", December 14, 2014. Also, moved the
definition of TPM2 to actbl2.h, next to TCPA, since both should
be together.
Update the table compiler/disassembler code for the tables.
However, the "Server" TCPA table is not supported at this time.

ACPICA commit 5d00e67a74542d030f0a55e7a947a020ef0d9693
This patch copies EFI interface definitions to the ACPICA code base so that
the EFI utility support can be ported to other EFI implementation.
Known issues:
1. MS Builds of uefi_call_wrapper()
The uefi_call_wrapper() in GNU EFI is implemented in a the way to work
around the ABI difference between Unix and MS. While I don't have
environment to test the MS builds.
In order to port the ACPICA utilities to other EFI implementation, all that
need to be done is to impelement the 64-bit division support and the
program entry point where the efi_main() is invoked. Code to impelement
these is platform specific, and ACPICA currently choose to hide such
platform specific code within the specific EFI impelementation. Lv Zheng.

ACPICA commit 4da56eeae0749dfe8491285c1e1fad48f6efafd8

Commit: 85dbd5801f62b66e2aa7826aaefcaebead44c8a6
ACPICA: Tables: Restore old behavor to favor 32-bit FADT addresses.
With enough protections, this patch re-enables 64-bit FADT addresses by

be bisected and reverted.
Note that 64-bit FACS favor and 64-bit firmware waking vector favor are

ACPICA commit f7b86f35416e3d1f71c3d816ff5075ddd33ed486
The following commit is reported to have broken s2ram on some platforms:
Commit: 0249ed2444d65d65fc3f3f64f398f1ad0b7e54cd
ACPICA: Add option to favor 32-bit FADT addresses.
The platform reports 2 FACS tables (which is not allowed by ACPI
specification) and the new 32-bit address favor rule forces OSPMs to use
the FACS table reported via FADT's X_FIRMWARE_CTRL field.
The root cause of the reported bug might be one of the followings:
1. BIOS may favor the 64-bit firmware waking vector address when the
version of the FACS is greater than 0 and Linux currently only supports
resuming from the real mode, so the 64-bit firmware waking vector has
never been set and might be invalid to BIOS while the commit enables
higher version FACS.
2. BIOS may favor the FACS reported via the "FIRMWARE_CTRL" field in the
FADT while the commit doesn't set the firmware waking vector address of
the FACS reported by "FIRMWARE_CTRL", it only sets the firware waking
vector address of the FACS reported by "X_FIRMWARE_CTRL".
This patch excludes the cases that can trigger the bugs caused by the root
cause 2.
There is no handshaking mechanism can be used by OSPM to tell BIOS which
FACS is currently used. Thus the FACS reported by "FIRMWARE_CTRL" may still
be used by BIOS and the 0 value of the 32-bit firmware waking vector might
trigger such failure.
This patch tries to favor 32bit FACS address in another way where both the
FACS reported by "FIRMWARE_CTRL" and the FACS reported by "X_FIRMWARE_CTRL"
are loaded so that further commit can set firmware waking vector in the
both tables to ensure we can exclude the cases that trigger the bugs caused
by the root cause 2. The exclusion is split into 2 commits as this commit
is also useful for dumping more ACPI tables, it won't get reverted when
such exclusion is no longer necessary. Lv Zheng.

ACPICA commit 7aa598d711644ab0de5f70ad88f1e2de253115e4
The following commit is reported to have broken s2ram on some platforms:
Commit: 0249ed2444d65d65fc3f3f64f398f1ad0b7e54cd
ACPICA: Add option to favor 32-bit FADT addresses.
The platform reports 2 FACS tables (which is not allowed by ACPI
specification) and the new 32-bit address favor rule forces OSPMs to use
the FACS table reported via FADT's X_FIRMWARE_CTRL field.
The root cause of the reported bug might be one of the followings:
1. BIOS may favor the 64-bit firmware waking vector address when the
version of the FACS is greater than 0 and Linux currently only supports
resuming from the real mode, so the 64-bit firmware waking vector has
never been set and might be invalid to BIOS while the commit enables
higher version FACS.
2. BIOS may favor the FACS reported via the "FIRMWARE_CTRL" field in the
FADT while the commit doesn't set the firmware waking vector address of
the FACS reported by "FIRMWARE_CTRL", it only sets the firware waking
vector address of the FACS reported by "X_FIRMWARE_CTRL".
This patch excludes the cases that can trigger the bugs caused by the root
cause 1.
ACPI specification says:
A. 32-bit FACS address (FIRMWARE_CTRL field in FADT):
Physical memory address of the FACS, where OSPM and firmware exchange
control information.
If the X_FIRMWARE_CTRL field contains a non zero value then this field
must be zero.
A zero value indicates that no FACS is specified by this field.
B. 64-bit FACS address (X_FIRMWARE_CTRL field in FADT):
64bit physical memory address of the FACS.
This field is used when the physical address of the FACS is above 4GB.
If the FIRMWARE_CTRL field contains a non zero value then this field
must be zero.
A zero value indicates that no FACS is specified by this field.
Thus the 32bit and 64bit firmware waking vector should indicate completely
different resuming environment - real mode (1MB addressable) and non real
mode (4GB+ addressable) and currently Linux only supports resuming from
real mode.
This patch enables 64-bit firmware waking vector for selected FACS via new
acpi_set_firmware_waking_vectors() API so that it's up to OSPMs to
determine which resuming mode should be used by BIOS and ACPICA changes
won't trigger the bugs caused by the root cause 1. Lv Zheng.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are fixes that didn't make it to the previous PM+ACPI pull
request or are fixing issues introduced by it.
Specifics:
- Fix a recently added memory leak in an error path in the ACPI
resources management code (Dan Carpenter)
- Fix a build warning triggered by an ACPI video header function that
should be static inline (Borislav Petkov)
- Change names of helper function converting struct fwnode_handle
pointers to either struct device_node or struct acpi_device
pointers so they don't conflict with local variable names
(Alexander Sverdlin)
- Make the hibernate core re-enable nonboot CPUs on failures to
disable them as expected (Vitaly Kuznetsov)
- Increase the default timeout of the device suspend watchdog to
prevent it from triggering too early on some systems (Takashi Iwai)
- Prevent the cpuidle powernv driver from registering idle states
with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set if CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT is unset
which leads to boot hangs (Preeti U Murthy)"

to speed module address lookup. He found some abusers of the module

A little bit of parameter work here too; including Dan Streetman's

To ensure it is safe to mount proc and sysfs I need to check if
filesystems that are mounted on top of them are mounted on truly empty
directories. Given that some directories can gain entries over time,
knowing that a directory is empty right now is insufficient.
Therefore add supporting infrastructure for permantently empty
directories that proc and sysfs can use when they create mount points
for filesystems and fs_fully_visible can use to test for permanently
empty directories to ensure that nothing will be gained by mounting a
fresh copy of proc or sysfs.

Mateusz Guzik reported :
Currently obtaining a new file descriptor results in locking fdtable
twice - once in order to reserve a slot and second time to fill it.
Holding the spinlock in __fd_install() is needed in case a resize is
done, or to prevent a resize.
Mateusz provided an RFC patch and a micro benchmark :
http://people.redhat.com/~mguzik/pipebench.c
A resize is an unlikely operation in a process lifetime,
as table size is at least doubled at every resize.
We can use RCU instead of the spinlock.
__fd_install() must wait if a resize is in progress.
The resize must block new __fd_install() callers from starting,
and wait that ongoing install are finished (synchronize_sched())
resize should be attempted by a single thread to not waste resources.
rcu_sched variant is used, as __fd_install() and expand_fdtable() run
from process context.
It gives us a ~30% speedup using pipebench on a dual Intel(R) Xeon(R)

Pull btrfs updates from Chris Mason:
"Outside of our usual batch of fixes, this integrates the subvolume
quota updates that Qu Wenruo from Fujitsu has been working on for a

Dave Sterba tested and integrated Anand Jain's sysfs improvements.
Outside of exporting a symbol (ack'd by Greg) these are all internal
to btrfs and it's mostly cleanups and fixes. Anand also attached some
of our sysfs objects to our internal device management structs instead
of an object off the super block. It will make device management
easier overall and it's a better fit for how the sysfs files are used.
None of the existing sysfs files are moved around.

To be consistent with other kernel interface namings, rename
of_get_named_gen_pool() to of_gen_pool_get(). In the original function
name "_named" suffix references to a device tree property, which contains
a phandle to a device and the corresponding device driver is assumed to
register a gen_pool object.
Due to a weak relation and to avoid any confusion (e.g. in future
possible scenario if gen_pool objects are named) the suffix is removed.

do_device_access() takes a separate parameter to indicate the direction of
data transfer, which it used to use to select the appropriate function out
of sg_pcopy_{to,from}_buffer(). However these two functions now have
So this patch makes it bypass these wrappers and call the underlying
function sg_copy_buffer() directly; this has the same calling style as
do_device_access() i.e. a separate direction-of-transfer parameter and no
pointers-to-const, so skipping the wrappers not only eliminates the
warning, it also make the code simpler :)

The 'buf' parameter of sg(p)copy_from_buffer() can and should be
const-qualified, although because of the shared implementation of
_to_buffer() and _from_buffer(), we have to cast this away internally.
This means that callers who have a 'const' buffer containing the data to
be copied to the sg-list no longer have to cast away the const-ness
themselves. It also enables improved coverage by code analysis tools.

Commit f06e5153f4ae2e ("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
option for kdump after panic_notifers") introduced
"crash_kexec_post_notifiers" kernel boot option, which toggles wheather
panic() calls crash_kexec() before panic_notifiers and dump kmsg or after.
The problem is that the commit overlooks panic_on_oops kernel boot option.
If it is enabled, crash_kexec() is called directly without going through
panic() in oops path.
To fix this issue, this patch adds a check to "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
in the condition of kexec_should_crash().
Also, put a comment in kexec_should_crash() to explain not obvious things
on this patch.

Waiman Long reported that 24TB machines hit OOM during basic setup when
struct page initialisation was deferred. One approach is to initialise
memory on demand but it interferes with page allocator paths. This patch
creates dedicated threads to initialise memory before basic setup. It
then blocks on a rw_semaphore until completion as a wait_queue and counter
is overkill. This may be slower to boot but it's simplier overall and
also gets rid of a section mangling which existed so kswapd could do the
initialisation.

__early_pfn_to_nid() use static variables to cache recent lookups as
memblock lookups are very expensive but it assumes that memory
initialisation is single-threaded. Parallel initialisation of struct
pages will break that assumption so this patch makes __early_pfn_to_nid()
SMP-safe by requiring the caller to cache recent search information.
early_pfn_to_nid() keeps the same interface but is only safe to use early
in boot due to the use of a global static variable. meminit_pfn_in_nid()
is an SMP-safe version that callers must maintain their own state for.

Currently each page struct is set as reserved upon initialization. This
patch leaves the reserved bit clear and only sets the reserved bit when it
is known the memory was allocated by the bootmem allocator. This makes it
easier to distinguish between uninitialised struct pages and reserved

Struct page initialisation had been identified as one of the reasons why
large machines take a long time to boot. Patches were posted a long time ago
to defer initialisation until they were first used. This was rejected on
the grounds it should not be necessary to hurt the fast paths. This series
reuses much of the work from that time but defers the initialisation of
memory to kswapd so that one thread per node initialises memory local to
that node.
After applying the series and setting the appropriate Kconfig variable I
see this in the boot log on a 64G machine
[ 7.383764] kswapd 0 initialised deferred memory in 188ms
[ 7.404253] kswapd 1 initialised deferred memory in 208ms
[ 7.411044] kswapd 3 initialised deferred memory in 216ms
[ 7.411551] kswapd 2 initialised deferred memory in 216ms
On a 1TB machine, I see
[ 8.406511] kswapd 3 initialised deferred memory in 1116ms
[ 8.428518] kswapd 1 initialised deferred memory in 1140ms
[ 8.435977] kswapd 0 initialised deferred memory in 1148ms
[ 8.437416] kswapd 2 initialised deferred memory in 1148ms
Once booted the machine appears to work as normal. Boot times were measured
from the time shutdown was called until ssh was available again. In the
64G case, the boot time savings are negligible. On the 1TB machine, the
savings were 16 seconds.

: On an older 8 TB box with lots and lots of cpus the boot time, as

: seconds to exactly 1000 seconds.
Waiman Long said:
: I ran a bootup timing test on a 12-TB 16-socket IvyBridge-EX system. From
: grub menu to ssh login, the bootup time was 453s before the patch and 265s
: after the patch - a saving of 188s (42%).
Daniel Blueman said:
: On a 7TB, 1728-core NumaConnect system with 108 NUMA nodes, we're seeing
: stock 4.0 boot in 7136s. This drops to 2159s, or a 70% reduction with
: this patchset. Non-temporal PMD init (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/23/350)
: drops this to 1045s.
This patch (of 13):
As part of initializing struct page's in 2MiB chunks, we noticed that at
the end of free_all_bootmem(), there was nothing which had forced the
reserved/allocated 4KiB pages to be initialized.
This helper function will be used for that expansion.

Move the definition of __pmem outside of CONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER to fix:
drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c:198:17: sparse: too many arguments for function __builtin_expect
drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c:36:33: sparse: expected ; at end of declaration
drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c:48:21: sparse: void declaration
...due to __pmem failing to be defined in some configurations when
CONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER=y.

This fixes breakage to iproute2 build with recent kernel headers
caused by:
commit a263653ed798216c0069922d7b5237ca49436007
Author: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
Date: Wed Jun 17 10:28:27 2015 -0500
netfilter: don't pull include/linux/netfilter.h from netns headers
The issue is that definitions in linux/in.h overlap with those
in netinet/in.h. This patch solves this by introducing the same
mechanism as was used to solve the same problem with linux/in6.h
