Fix overflows seen when writing large values into voltage limit,
temperature limit, temperature offset, and DAC attributes.
Overflows are seen due to unbound multiplications and additions.
While at it, change the low temperature limit to -128 degrees C,
since this is the minimum temperature accepted by the chip.

Install the callbacks via the state machine and let the core invoke the
callbacks on the already online CPUs. When the hotplug state is
unregistered the cleanup function is called for each cpu. So both cpu loops
in init() and exit() are not longer required.

Allocating the sysfs attribute name only if needed and only with the
required minimum length looks optimal, but does not take the additional
overhead for both devm_ data structures and the allocation header itself
into account. This also results in unnecessary memory fragmentation.
Move the sysfs name string into struct hwmon_device_attribute and give it
a sufficient length to reduce this overhead.

Keeping track of the per package platform devices requires an extra object,
which is held in a linked list.
The maximum number of packages is known at init() time. So the extra object
and linked list management can be replaced by an array of platform device
pointers in which the per package devices pointers can be stored. Lookup
becomes a simple array lookup instead of a list walk.
The mutex protecting the list can be removed as well because the array is
only accessed from cpu hotplug callbacks which are already serialized.

The cpu online callback returns success unconditionally even when the
device has no support, micro code mismatches or device allocation fails.
Only if CPU_HOTPLUG is disabled, the init function checks whether the
device list is empty and removes the driver.
This does not make sense. If CPU HOTPLUG is enabled then there is no point
to keep the driver around when it failed to initialize on the already
online cpus. The chance that not yet online CPUs will provide a functional
interface later is very close to zero.
Add proper error return codes, so the setup of the cpu hotplug states fails
when the device cannot be initialized and remove all the magic cruft.

The coretemp driver provides a sysfs interface per physical core. If
hyperthreading is enabled and one of the siblings goes offline the sysfs
interface is removed and then immeditately created again for the
sibling. The only difference of them is the target cpu for the
rdmsr_on_cpu() in the sysfs show functions.
It's way simpler to keep a cpumask of cpus which are active in a package
and only remove the interface when the last sibling goes offline. Otherwise
just move the target cpu for the sysfs show functions to the still online
sibling.

This patch is based on an earlier one submitted
by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message:
"We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the
same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was
enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the
one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly.
We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size
which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is
used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large,
it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer
was completely empty."
We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries
environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum
field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum
offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS.
Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer.
This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

In flood situations, keeping sk_rmem_alloc at a high value

If udp_recvmsg() constantly releases sk_rmem_alloc
for every read packet, it gives opportunity for
producers to immediately grab spinlocks and desperatly
try adding another packet, causing false sharing.
We can add a simple heuristic to give the signal
by batches of ~25 % of the queue capacity.
This patch considerably increases performance under
flood by about 50 %, since the thread draining the queue
is no longer slowed by false sharing.

In UDP RX handler, we currently clear skb->dev before skb
is added to receive queue, because device pointer is no longer
available once we exit from RCU section.
Since this first cache line is always hot, lets reuse this space
to store skb->truesize and thus avoid a cache line miss at
udp_recvmsg()/udp_skb_destructor time while receive queue
spinlock is held.

Idea of busylocks is to let producers grab an extra spinlock
to relieve pressure on the receive_queue spinlock shared by consumer.
This behavior is requested only once socket receive queue is above
half occupancy.
Under flood, this means that only one producer can be in line
trying to acquire the receive_queue spinlock.
These busylock can be allocated on a per cpu manner, instead of a
per socket one (that would consume a cache line per socket)
This patch considerably improves UDP behavior under stress,
depending on number of NIC RX queues and/or RPS spread.

net: qcom/emac: simplify support for different SOCs
On SOCs that have the Qualcomm EMAC network controller, the internal
PHY block is always different. Sometimes the differences are small,
sometimes it might be a completely different IP. Either way, using version
numbers to differentiate them and putting all of the init code in one
file does not scale.
This patchset does two things: The first breaks up the current code into
different files, and the second patch adds support for a third SOC, the

The QDF2432 and the QDF2400 have slightly different internal PHYs,
so there are some programming differences. Some of the registers in
the QDF2400 have moved, and some registers require different values
during initialization.
Because of the differences, and because HIDs are a scare resource,
the ACPI tables specify the hardware version in an _HRV property.
Version 1 is the QDF2432, and version 2 is the QDF2400. Any future
SOC that has the same internal PHY but different programming
requirements will be assigned the next available version number.

The internal PHY of the EMAC differs on each SOC, and the list will
only continue to grow. By separating the code into individual files,
we can add support for more SOCs more cleanly.
Note: The internal PHY is also sometimes called the SGMII device.
We also stop referring to the various PHY variations by version number,
so no more "v2", "v3", etc. Instead, the devices are named after the
SOC they are, which is in sync with the device tree property names.
Future patches will probably rearrange more code among the files.

Reorganize the E400 detection now that we have everything in place:
switch the CPUs to broadcast mode after the LAPIC has been initialized
and remove the facilities that were used previously on the idle path.
Unfortunately static_cpu_has_bug() cannpt be used in the E400 idle routine
because alternatives have been applied when the actual detection happens,
so the static switching does not take effect and the test will stay
false. Use boot_cpu_has_bug() instead which is definitely an improvement
over the RDMSR and the cpumask handling.

AMD CPUs affected by the E400 erratum suffer from the issue that the
local APIC timer stops when the CPU goes into C1E. Unfortunately there
is no way to detect the affected CPUs on early boot. It's only possible
to determine the range of possibly affected CPUs from the family/model
range.
The actual decision whether to enter C1E and thus cause the bug is done
by the firmware and we need to detect that case late, after ACPI has
been initialized.
The current solution is to check in the idle routine whether the CPU is
affected by reading the MSR_K8_INT_PENDING_MSG MSR and checking for the
K8_INTP_C1E_ACTIVE_MASK bits. If one of the bits is set then the CPU is
affected and the system is switched into forced broadcast mode.
This is ineffective and on non-affected CPUs every entry to idle does
the extra RDMSR.
After doing some research it turns out that the bits are visible on the
boot CPU right after the ACPI subsystem is initialized in the early
boot process. So instead of polling for the bits in the idle loop, add
a detection function after acpi_subsystem_init() and check for the MSR
bits. If set, then the X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E is set on the boot CPU and
the TSC is marked unstable when X86_FEATURE_NONSTOP_TSC is not set as it
will stop in C1E state as well.
The switch to broadcast mode cannot be done at this point because the
boot CPU still uses HPET as a clockevent device and the local APIC timer
is not yet calibrated and installed. The switch to broadcast mode on the
affected CPUs needs to be done when the local APIC timer is actually set
up.
This allows to cleanup the amd_e400_idle() function in the next step.

The workaround for the AMD Erratum E400 (Local APIC timer stops in C1E
state) is a two step process:
- Selection of the E400 aware idle routine
- Detection whether the platform is affected
The idle routine selection happens for possibly affected CPUs depending on
family/model/stepping information. These range of CPUs is not necessarily
affected as the decision whether to enable the C1E feature is made by the
firmware. Unfortunately there is no way to query this at early boot.
The current implementation polls a MSR in the E400 aware idle routine to
detect whether the CPU is affected. This is inefficient on non affected
CPUs because every idle entry has to do the MSR read.
There is a better way to detect this before going idle for the first time
which requires to seperate the bug flags:
X86_BUG_AMD_E400 - Selects the E400 aware idle routine and
enables the detection
X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E - Set when the platform is affected by E400
Replace the current X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E usage by the new X86_BUG_AMD_E400
bug bit to select the idle routine which currently does an unconditional
detection poll. X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E is going to be used in later patches
to remove the MSR polling and simplify the handling of this misfeature.
