The 24x7 counters are continuously running and not updated on an
interrupt. So we record the event counts when stopping the event or
deleting it.
But to "read" a single counter in 24x7, we allocate a page and pass it
into the hypervisor (The HV returns the page full of counters from which
we extract the specific counter for this event).
We allocate a page using GFP_USER and when deleting the event, we end up
with the following warning because we are blocking in interrupt context.
[ 698.641709] BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0/0x10010000
We could use GFP_ATOMIC but that could result in failures. Pre-allocate
a buffer so we don't have to allocate in interrupt context. Further as
Michael Ellerman suggested, use Per-CPU buffer so we only need to
allocate once per CPU.

This change enables the sunvdc driver to reconnect and recover if a vds
service domain is disconnected or bounced.
By default, it will wait indefinitely for the service domain to become
available again, but will honor a non-zero vdc-timout md property if one
is set. If a timeout is reached, any in-progress I/O's are completed
with -EIO.

Pull workqueue update from Tejun Heo:
"Work items which may be involved in memory reclaim path may be
executed by the rescuer under memory pressure. When a rescuer gets
activated, it processes whatever are on the pending list and then goes
back to sleep until the manager kicks it again which involves 100ms
delay.
This is problematic for self-requeueing work items or the ones running
on ordered workqueues as there always is only one work item on the
pending list when the rescuer kicks in. The execution of that work
item produces more to execute but the rescuer won't see them until
after the said 100ms has passed, so such workqueues would only execute
one work item every 100ms under prolonged memory pressure, which BTW
may be being prolonged due to the slow execution.

For ports of the switch that we define as "fixed PHYs" such as MoCA, we
would have our Port 7 special handling that would allow us to assert the
link status indication.
For other ports, such as e.g: RGMII_1 connected to a cable modem, we
would rely on whatever the bootloader has left configured, which is a
bad assumption to make, we really need to force the link status
indication here.

Alexander Duyck says:
====================
arch: Add lightweight memory barriers for coherent memory access
These patches introduce two new primitives for synchronizing cache coherent
memory writes and reads. These two new primitives are:
dma_rmb()
dma_wmb()
The first patch cleans up some unnecessary overhead related to the
definition of read_barrier_depends, smp_read_barrier_depends, and comments
related to the barrier.
The second patch adds the primitives for the applicable architectures and
asm-generic.
The third patch adds the barriers to r8169 which turns out to be a good
example of where the new barriers might be useful as they have full
rmb()/wmb() barriers ordering accesses to the descriptors and the DescOwn
bit.
The fourth patch adds support for coherent_rmb() to the Intel fm10k, igb,
and ixgbe drivers. Testing with the ixgbe driver has shown a processing
time reduction of at least 7ns per 64B frame on a Core i7-4930K.
This patch series is essentially the v7 for:
v4-7: Add lightweight memory barriers for coherent memory access
v3: Add lightweight memory barriers fast_rmb() and fast_wmb()
v2: Introduce load_acquire() and store_release()
v1: Introduce read_acquire()
The key changes in this patch series versus the earlier patches are:
v7 resubmit:
- Added Acked-by: Ben Herrenschmidt from v5 to dma_rmb/wmb patch
- No code changes from previous set, still applies cleanly and builds.
v7:
- Dropped test/debug patch that was accidentally slipped in
v6:
- Replaced "memory based device I/O" with "consistent memory" in
docs
- Added reference to DMA-API.txt to explain consistent memory
v5:
- Renamed barriers dma_rmb and dma_wmb
- Undid smp_wmb changes in x86 and PowerPC
- Defined smp_rmb as __lwsync for SMP case on PowerPC
v4:
- Renamed barriers coherent_rmb and coherent_wmb
- Added smp_lwsync for use in smp_load_acquire/smp_store_release
v3:
- Moved away from acquire()/store() and instead focused on barriers
- Added cleanup of read_barrier_depends
- Added change in r8169 to fix cur_tx/DescOwn ordering
- Simplified changes to just replacing/moving barriers in r8169
- Added update to documentation with code example
v2:
- Renamed read_acquire() to be consistent with smp_load_acquire()
- Changed barrier used to be consistent with smp_load_acquire()
- Updated PowerPC code to use __lwsync based on IBM article
- Added store_release() as this is a viable use case for drivers
- Added r8169 patch which is able to fully use primitives
- Added fm10k/igb/ixgbe patch which is able to test performance

This change makes it so that dma_rmb is used when reading the Rx
descriptor. The advantage of dma_rmb is that it allows for a much
lower cost barrier on x86, powerpc, arm, and arm64 architectures than a
traditional memory barrier when dealing with reads that only have to
synchronize to coherent memory.
In addition I have updated the code so that it just checks to see if any
bits have been set instead of just the DD bit since the DD bit will always
be set as a part of a descriptor write-back so we just need to check for a
non-zero value being present at that memory location rather than just
checking for any specific bit. This allows the code itself to appear much
cleaner and allows the compiler more room to optimize.

The r8169 use a pair of wmb() calls when setting up the descriptor rings.
The first is to synchronize the descriptor data with the descriptor status,
and the second is to synchronize the descriptor status with the use of the
MMIO doorbell to notify the device that descriptors are ready. This can
come at a heavy price on some systems, and is not really necessary on
systems such as x86 as a simple barrier() would suffice to order store/store
accesses. As such we can replace the first memory barrier with
dma_wmb() to reduce the cost for these accesses.
In addition the r8169 uses a rmb() to prevent compiler optimization in the
cleanup paths, however by moving the barrier down a few lines and replacing
it with a dma_rmb() we should be able to use it to guarantee
descriptor accesses do not occur until the device has updated the DescOwn
bit from its end.
One last change I made is to move the update of cur_tx in the xmit path to
after the wmb. This way we can guarantee the device and all CPUs should
see the DescOwn update before they see the cur_tx value update.

There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For
example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
is an lsync or eieio instruction.
This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on
ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:
Barrier Call Explanation
--------- -------- ----------------------------------
rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system
dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable
These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
CPU and a device.
It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't
provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to
be gained in trying to define such a function.

This patch is meant to cleanup the handling of read_barrier_depends and
smp_read_barrier_depends. In multiple spots in the kernel headers
read_barrier_depends is defined as "do {} while (0)", however we then go
into the SMP vs non-SMP sections and have the SMP version reference
read_barrier_depends, and the non-SMP define it as yet another empty
do/while.
With this commit I went through and cleaned out the duplicate definitions
and reduced the number of definitions down to 2 per header. In addition I
moved the 50 line comments for the macro from the x86 and mips headers that
defined it as an empty do/while to those that were actually defining the
macro, alpha and blackfin.

If we need to force detach a context (e.g. due to EEH or simply force

We had a known sleep while atomic bug if a CXL device was forcefully
unbound while it was in use. This could occur as a result of EEH, or
manually induced with something like this while the device was in use:
echo 0000:01:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/cxl-pci/unbind
The issue was that in this code path we iterated over each context and
forcefully detached it with the contexts_lock spin lock held, however
the detach also needed to take the spu_mutex, and call schedule.
This patch changes the contexts_lock to a mutex so that we are not in
atomic context while doing the detach, thereby avoiding the sleep while
atomic.
Also delete the related TODO comment, which suggested an alternate
solution which turned out to not be workable.

In case there is no PHY at the designated address on the internal
switch, we would basically de-reference a null pointer here:
dsa_slave_phy_setup(...)
{
p->phy = ds->slave_mii_bus->phy_map[p->port];
phy_connect_direct(slave_dev, p->phy, dsa_slave_adjust_link,
^------
This can be triggered when the platform configuration (platform_data or
Device Tree) indicates there should be a PHY device at this address, but
the HW is non-responsive, such that we cannot attach a PHY device at
this specific location.
Fix this by checking the return value prior to calling
phy_connect_direct().

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Some nice cleanups like removing bootmem, and removal of
__get_cpu_var().
There is one patch to mm/gup.c. This is the generic GUP
implementation, but is only used by us and arm(64). We have an ack
from Steve Capper, and although we didn't get an ack from Andrew he
told us to take the patch through the powerpc tree.
There's one cxl patch. This is in drivers/misc, but Greg said he was
happy for us to manage fixes for it.
There is an infrastructure patch to support an IPMI driver for OPAL.
There is also an RTC driver for OPAL. We weren't able to get any
response from the RTC maintainer, Alessandro Zummo, so in the end we
just merged the driver.

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"The most notable change for this pull request is the ftrace rework
from Heiko. It brings a small performance improvement and the ground
work to support a new gcc option to replace the mcount blocks with a
single nop.
Two new s390 specific system calls are added to emulate user space
mmio for PCI, an artifact of the how PCI memory is accessed.
Two patches for the memory management with changes to common code.
For KVM mm_forbids_zeropage is added which disables the empty zero
page for an mm that is used by a KVM process. And an optimization,
pmdp_get_and_clear_full is added analog to ptep_get_and_clear_full.
Some micro optimization for the cmpxchg and the spinlock code.
And as usual bug fixes and cleanups"

Now that setgroups can be disabled and not reenabled, setting gid_map
without privielge can now be enabled when setgroups is disabled.
This restores most of the functionality that was lost when unprivileged
setting of gid_map was removed. Applications that use this functionality
will need to check to see if they use setgroups or init_groups, and if they
don't they can be fixed by simply disabling setgroups before writing to
gid_map.

- Expose the knob to user space through a proc file /proc/<pid>/setgroups
A value of "deny" means the setgroups system call is disabled in the
current processes user namespace and can not be enabled in the
future in this user namespace.
A value of "allow" means the segtoups system call is enabled.
- Descendant user namespaces inherit the value of setgroups from
their parents.
- A proc file is used (instead of a sysctl) as sysctls currently do
not allow checking the permissions at open time.
- Writing to the proc file is restricted to before the gid_map
for the user namespace is set.
This ensures that disabling setgroups at a user namespace
level will never remove the ability to call setgroups
from a process that already has that ability.
A process may opt in to the setgroups disable for itself by
creating, entering and configuring a user namespace or by calling
setns on an existing user namespace with setgroups disabled.
Processes without privileges already can not call setgroups so this
is a noop. Prodcess with privilege become processes without
privilege when entering a user namespace and as with any other path
to dropping privilege they would not have the ability to call
setgroups. So this remains within the bounds of what is possible
without a knob to disable setgroups permanently in a user namespace.

Balance a hid_device_io_start() call with hid_device_io_stop() in the
error path. This avoids processing of HID reports when the probe fails
which possibly leads to invalid memory access in hid_device_probe() as
report_enum->report_id_hash might already be freed via
hid_close_report().
hid_set_drvdata() is called before wtp_allocate, be consistent and clear
drvdata too on the error path of wtp_allocate.

The existing generic touch code only reports events after reading an
entire HID report, which practically means that only data about the last
contact in a report will ever be provided to userspace. This patch uses
a trick from hid-multitouch.c to discover what type of field is at the
end of each contact; when such a field is encountered all the stored
contact data will be reported.

On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still
be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross
<ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use
pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk
just before a write hanging the system.
On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are
implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter
for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by
default.

Currently trying to use pstore on at least ARMs can hang as we're
mapping the peristent RAM with pgprot_noncached().
On ARMs, pgprot_noncached() will actually make the memory strongly
ordered, and as the atomic operations pstore uses are implementation
defined for strongly ordered memory, they may not work. So basically
atomic operations have undefined behavior on ARM for device or strongly
ordered memory types.
Let's fix the issue by using write-combine variants for mappings. This
corresponds to normal, non-cacheable memory on ARM. For many other
architectures, this change does not change the mapping type as by
default we have:
#define pgprot_writecombine pgprot_noncached
The reason why pgprot_noncached() was originaly used for pstore
is because Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> had observed lost
debug prints right before a device hanging write operation on some
systems. For the platforms supporting pgprot_noncached(), we can
add a an optional configuration option to support that. But let's
get pstore working first before adding new features.
