2020-04-20drm/i915/selftests: Exercise dynamic reclocking with RPSChris Wilson
After having testing all the RPS controls individually, we need to take a step back and check how our RPS worker integrates them to perform dynamic GPU reclocking. So do that by submitting a spinner and wait and see what happens.

2020-04-20drm/i915/selftests: Skip energy consumption tests if not controlling freqChris Wilson
If we can not manipulate the frequency with RPS, then comparing min/max power consumption is pointless / misleading. We will leave the warning about not being able to control the frequency selection via RPS to other tests so as not to confuse this more specialised check.

2020-04-20drm/i915/selftests: Verify frequency scaling with RPSChris Wilson
One of the core tenents of reclocking the GPU is that its throughput scales with the clock frequency. We can observe this by incrementing a loop counter on the GPU, and compare the different execution rates at the notional RPS frequencies.

2020-04-20drm/i915: Push MST link retraining to the hotplug workVille Syrjälä
We shouldn't try to do link retraining from the short hpd handler. We can't take any modeset locks there so this is racy as hell. Push the whole thing into the hotplug work like we do with SST. We'll just have to adjust the SST retraining code to deal with the MST encoders and multiple pipes. TODO: I have a feeling we should just rip this all out and do a full modeset instead. Stuff like port sync and the tgl+ MST master transcoder stuff maybe doesn't work well if we try to retrain without following the proper modeset sequence. So far haven't done any actual tests to confirm that though.

Make intel_dp_check_mst_status() somewhat legible by humans. Note that the return value of drm_dp_mst_hpd_irq() is always either 0 or -ENOMEM, and we never did anything with the latter so we can just ignore the whole thing. We can also get rid of the direct drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr_set_mst(false) call since returning -EINVAL causes the caller to do the very same call for us.

2020-04-19mm: Fix MREMAP_DONTUNMAP accounting on VMA mergeBrian Geffon
When remapping a mapping where a portion of a VMA is remapped into another portion of the VMA it can cause the VMA to become split. During the copy_vma operation the VMA can actually be remerged if it's an anonymous VMA whose pages have not yet been faulted. This isn't normally a problem because at the end of the remap the original portion is unmapped causing it to become split again. However, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaves that original portion in place which means that the VMA which was split and then remerged is not actually split at the end of the mremap. This patch fixes a bug where we don't detect that the VMAs got remerged and we end up putting back VM_ACCOUNT on the next mapping which is completely unreleated. When that next mapping is unmapped it results in incorrectly unaccounting for the memory which was never accounted, and eventually we will underflow on the memory comittment. There is also another issue which is similar, we're currently accouting for the number of pages in the new_vma but that's wrong. We need to account for the length of the remap operation as that's all that is being added. If there was a mapping already at that location its comittment would have been adjusted as part of the munmap at the start of the mremap. A really simple repro can be seen in: https://gist.github.com/bgaff/e101ce99da7d9a8c60acc641d07f312c Fixes: e346b3813067 ("mm/mremap: add MREMAP_DONTUNMAP to mremap()") Reported-by: syzbot <syzkaller@googlegroups.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Geffon <bgeffon@google.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2020-04-18lib: cpu_rmap: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array memberGustavo A. R. Silva
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
