The following commit:
a0acda917284 ("acpi, numa, mem_hotplug: mark all nodes the kernel resides un-hotpluggable")
Introduced numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug(), which function is executed
during early bootup, and which marks all currently reserved memblock
regions as hot-memory-unswappable as well.
y14sg1 <y14sg1@comcast.net> reported that when running 32-bit NUMA kernels,
the grsecurity/PAX kernel patch flagged a size overflow in this function:
PAX: size overflow detected in function x86_numa_init arch/x86/mm/numa.c:691 [...]
... the reason for the overflow is that memblock_clear_hotplug() takes physical
addresses as arguments, while the start/end variables used by
numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() are 'unsigned long', which is 32-bit on PAE
kernels, but which has 64-bit physical addresses.
So on 32-bit PAE kernels that have physical memory above the 4GB boundary,
we truncate a 64-bit physical address range to 32 bits and pass it to
memblock_clear_hotplug(), which at minimum prevents the original memory-hotplug
bugfix from working, but might have other side effects as well.
The fix is to use the proper type to handle physical addresses, phys_addr_t.

Since binutils 2.26 BFD is doing suffix merging on STRTAB sections. But
dedotify modifies the symbol names in place, which can also modify
unrelated symbols with a name that matches a suffix of a dotted name. To
remove the leading dot of a symbol name we can just increment the pointer
into the STRTAB section instead.
Backport to all stables to avoid breakage when people update their
binutils - mpe.

Our attempts save/restore panel power state in i915_suspend.c are
causing unclaimed register warnings on BXT since the registers for this
platform differ from older platforms.
The big hammer suspend/resume shouldn't be necessary for PP since the
connector/encoder hooks should already handle this. In theory we could
remove this for all platforms, but in practice it's likely that would
cause some regressions since older platforms with LVDS may have
incomplete PP handling. For now we'll leave the PCH save/restore alone
and change the non-PCH branch to only operate on gen <= 4 so that BXT
and future platforms aren't included.
v2: Typo fix: s/||/&&/
v3: Change non-PCH condition to a gen <= 4 test rather than listing
VLV/CHV/BXT as specific platforms to exclude; should be more
future-proof as we add new platforms. (Daniel)

drm/i915: mark GEM object pages dirty when mapped & written by the CPU
introduced a check into i915_gem_object_get_dirty_pages() that returned
a NULL pointer when called with a bad object, one that was not backed by
shmemfs. This WARN was too strict as we can work on all struct page
backed objects, and resulted in a WARN + GPF for existing userspace. In
order to differentiate the various types of objects, add a new flags field
to the i915_gem_object_ops struct to describe their capabilities, with
the first flag being whether the object has struct pages.
v2: Drop silly const before an integer in the structure declaration.

Currently the selected timer backend is referred at any moment from
the running PCM callbacks. When the backend is switched, it's
possible to lead to inconsistency from the running backend. This was
pointed by syzkaller fuzzer, and the commit [7ee96216c31a: ALSA:
dummy: Disable switching timer backend via sysfs] disabled the dynamic
switching for avoiding the crash.
This patch improves the handling of timer backend switching. It keeps
the reference to the selected backend during the whole operation of an
opened stream so that it won't be changed by other streams.
Together with this change, the hrtimer parameter is reenabled as
writable now.
NOTE: this patch also turned out to fix the still remaining race.
Namely, ops was still replaced dynamically at dummy_pcm_open:
static int dummy_pcm_open(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream)
{
....
dummy->timer_ops = &dummy_systimer_ops;
if (hrtimer)
dummy->timer_ops = &dummy_hrtimer_ops;
Since dummy->timer_ops is common among all streams, and when the
replacement happens during accesses of other streams, it may lead to a
crash. This was actually triggered by syzkaller fuzzer and KASAN.
This patch rewrites the code not to use the ops shared by all streams
any longer, too.

The qfprom is a little endian device, but so far we've been
relying on the regmap mmio bus handling this for us without
explicitly stating that fact. After commit 4a98da2164cf
(regmap-mmio: Use native endianness for read/write, 2015-10-29),
the regmap mmio bus will read/write with the __raw_*() IO
accessors, instead of using the readl/writel() APIs that do
proper byte swapping for little endian devices.
So if we're running on a big endian processor and haven't
specified the endianness explicitly in the regmap config or in
DT, we're going to switch from doing little endian byte swapping
to big endian accesses without byte swapping, leading to some
confusing results. Specify the endianness explicitly so that the
regmap core properly byte swaps the accesses for us.

The starting node for a klist iteration is often passed in from
somewhere way above the klist infrastructure, meaning there's no
guarantee the node is still on the list. We've seen this in SCSI where
we use bus_find_device() to iterate through a list of devices. In the
face of heavy hotplug activity, the last device returned by
bus_find_device() can be removed before the next call. This leads to

And an eventual crash. It can actually occur in any hotplug system

We can fix this globally by making sure the starting node for
klist_iter_init_node() is actually a member of the list before using it
(and by starting from the beginning if it isn't).

When retrieving the residue value, the SRC/DST fields of the
active PaRAM are read to determine the current position of
the DMA engine. However, the AM335x Technical Reference Manual
states:
11.3.3.6 Parameter Set Updates
After the TR is read from the PaRAM (and is in the process
of being submitted to the EDMA3TC), the following fields are
updated as needed: ... SRC DST
This means SRC/DST is incremented even though the DMA transfer
may not have started yet or is in progress. Thus if the reader
of the residue accesses the DMA buffer too quickly, the CPU is
misinformed about the data that has been successfully processed.
The CCSTAT.ACTV register is a boolean that is set if any TR is
being processed by either the EMDA3CC or EDMA3TC. By polling
this register it is possible to ensure that the residue value
returned is valid for immediate processing. However, since the
DMA engine may be active, polling may never hit a moment where
no TR is being processed. To handle this, the SRC/DST is also
polled to see if it changes. And as a last resort, a max loop
count for the busy waiting exists to avoid an infinite loop.

Quite a bit of the changes on OMAP were due to fixes to no longer

Namespaceify more of the tcp sysctl knobs
This patch series continues making more of the tcp-related
sysctl knobs be per net-namespace. Most of these apply per
socket and have global defaults so should be safe and I
don't expect any breakages.
Having those per net-namespace is useful when multiple
containers are hosted and it is required to tune the
tcp settings for each independently of the host node.
I've split the patches to be per-sysctl but after
the review if the outcome is positive I'm happy
to either send it in one big blob or just.

value is defined. Patch 2 adds support for ethtool (get|set)_settings and
uses the validation functions to check the user-supplied values.
v2: split in 2 patches to allow everyone to make use of the validation
functions and allow virtio_net devices to be half duplex
v3: added a check to return error if the user tries to change anything else
besides duplex/speed as per Michael's comment
v4: Set port type to PORT_OTHER
v5: clear diff1.port (ignore port) when checking for changes since we set
it now and ethtool uses it in the set request
Sorry about the pointless iterations, should've all covered now.

This patch allows the user to set and retrieve speed and duplex of the
virtio_net device via ethtool. Having this functionality is very helpful
for simulating different environments and also enables the virtio_net
device to participate in operations where proper speed and duplex are
required (e.g. currently bonding lacp mode requires full duplex). Custom
speed and duplex are not allowed, the user-supplied settings are validated
before applying.
Example:
$ ethtool eth1
Settings for eth1:
...
Speed: Unknown!
Duplex: Unknown! (255)
$ ethtool -s eth1 speed 1000 duplex full
$ ethtool eth1
Settings for eth1:
...
Speed: 1000Mb/s
Duplex: Full
Based on a patch by Roopa Prabhu.

tcp: congestion control refactoring
This patch set refactors the sequence of congestion control,
loss recovery, and transmission logic in TCP ack processing.
The design goal is to decouple and sequence them in the following order:
0. ACK accounting: free or tag sent packets [unchanged]
1. loss recovery: identify lost/ecn packets and update congestion state
2. congestion control: up/down cwnd and pacing rate based on (1)
3. transmission: send new or retransmit old based on (1) and (2)
This refactoring makes the cwnd changes more clear because it's done
in one place. The packet accounting is also more robust especially
for connections that do not support SACK. Patch 1-4 and 6 are
refactoring and patch 5 improves TCP performance under reordering.

This change enables congestion control to update cwnd based on
not only packet cumulatively acked but also packets delivered
out-of-order. This makes congestion control robust against packet
reordering because it may raise cwnd as long as packets are being
delivered once reordering has been detected (i.e., it only cares
the amount of packets delivered, not the ordering among them).

This patch changes the accounting of how many packets are
newly acked or sacked when the sender receives an ACK.
The current approach basically computes
newly_acked_sacked = (prior_packets - prior_sacked) -
(tp->packets_out - tp->sacked_out)
where prior_packets and prior_sacked out are snapshot
at the beginning of the ACK processing.
The new approach tracks the delivery information via a new
TCP state variable "delivered" which monotically increases
as new packets are delivered in order or out-of-order.
The reason for this change is that the current approach is
brittle that produces negative or inaccurate estimate.
1) For non-SACK connections, an ACK that advances the SND.UNA
could reset the DUPACK counters (tp->sacked_out) in
tcp_process_loss() or tcp_fastretrans_alert(). This inflates
the inflight suddenly and causes under-estimate or even
negative estimate. Here is a real example:
before after (processing ACK)
packets_out 75 73
sacked_out 23 0
ca state Loss Open
The old approach computes (75-23) - (73 - 0) = -21 delivered
while the new approach computes 1 delivered since it
considers the 2nd-24th packets are delivered OOO.
2) MSS change would re-count packets_out and sacked_out so
the estimate is in-accurate and can even become negative.
E.g., the inflight is doubled when MSS is halved.
3) Spurious retransmission signaled by DSACK is not accounted
The new approach is simpler and more robust. For SACK connections,
tp->delivered increments as packets are being acked or sacked in
SACK and ACK processing.
For non-sack connections, it's done in tcp_remove_reno_sacks() and
tcp_add_reno_sack(). When an ACK advances the SND.UNA, tp->delivered
is incremented by the number of packets ACKed (less the current
number of DUPACKs received plus one packet hole). Upon receiving
a DUPACK, tp->delivered is incremented assuming one out-of-order
packet is delivered.
Upon receiving a DSACK, tp->delivered is incremtened assuming one
retransmission is delivered in tcp_sacktag_write_queue().

Currently the cwnd is reduced and increased in various different
places. The reduction happens in various places in the recovery
state processing (tcp_fastretrans_alert) while the increase
happens afterward.
A better sequence is to identify lost packets and update
the congestion control state (icsk_ca_state) first. Then base
on the new state, up/down the cwnd in one central place. It's
more clear to reason cwnd changes.

The retransmission and F-RTO transmission currently happen inside
recovery state processing (tcp_fastretrans_alert) but before
congestion control. This refactoring moves the logic after both
s.t. we can determine how much to send (cwnd) before deciding what to
send.
