Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
"Lai simplified worker destruction path and internal workqueue locking

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"Nothing too exciting. percpu_ref is going through some interface
changes and getting new features with more changes in the pipeline but
given its young age and few users, it's very low impact"

We've observed the missing pvpanic call at panic, and it turned out
that this was blocked by the broken notifier of drm_fb_helper, where
scheduling may be called during switching to the fb console.
It's fairly difficult to fix the drm_fb problem and a quick fix isn't
foreseen, a simpler solution for the missing pvpanic call would be
just to call this earlier.
In order to assure that, this patch sets a higher priority to pvpanic
notifier_block. Once when the issue of drm_fb is resolved, we can
remove this priority again.

These models have only 4 levels of keyboard backlight brightness and forget
how to work the backlight after resuming from S3 sleep. I've added a quirk
to set the appropriate number of backlight levels, and one to re-enable the
keyboard backlight on resume.

Toshiba Satellite M840 laptop has a complete different keymap although
it's bound with the same ACPI ID "TOS1900". This patch provides an
alternative keymap specific to this machine by identifying via DMI
matching. The keymap table doesn't fill all entries that were used
before since some keys aren't found on this machine at all.

On architectures that setup CROSS_COMPILE in their arch/*/Makefile
(arc, blackfin, m68k, mips, parisc, score, sh, tile, unicore32, xtensa),
cc-option and cc-disable-warning may check against the wrong compiler,
causing errors like
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-maybe-uninitialized"
if the host gcc supports a compiler option, while the cross compiler
doesn't support that option.
Move all logic using cc-option or cc-disable-warning below the inclusion
of the arch's Makefile to fix this.
Introduced by
- commit e74fc973b6e531fef1fce8b101ffff05ecfb774c ("Turn off
-Wmaybe-uninitialized when building with -Os"),
- commit 61163efae02040f66a95c8ed17f4407951ba58fa ("kbuild: LLVMLinux:
Add Kbuild support for building kernel with Clang").
As -Wno-maybe-uninitialized requires a quite recent gcc (gcc 4.6.3 on
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS doesn't support it), this only showed up recently (gcc
4.8.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS does support it).

Since commit 22d651dcef536c75f75537290bf3da5038e68b6b ('selftests/powerpc:
Import Anton's memcpy / copy_tofrom_user tests'), some source files in the
tree appear as symlink.
Until commit 8c38a5328af8080bc69a25b3e4e144b03eeea95e ('scripts/tags.sh:
ignore code of user space tools'), those symlinks made cscope report some
warnings:
$ make ALLSOURCE_ARCHS=all O=./obj-cscope/ cscope
GEN cscope
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/copyuser_power7.S
cscope: cannot find

cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/memcpy_power7.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/copyuser_64.S
In order to prevent the same kind of warnings to be triggered by future
addition of symlinks, the best option is to ignore all symlinks when
building the file list to be processed by cscope (and other tools
supported by scripts/tags.sh).
Ignoring symlinks won't hide source files from cscope (and others) as the
target of these symlinks already appear somewhere else in the tree, and,
as such, should be processed by cscope (or others).
Note that, cscope, when used with -R option to make it find the files to
process by itself, already skip symlinks: it's not expected that cscope
access source files through symlink.
On top of commit 8c38a5328af8080bc69a25b3e4e144b03eeea95e ('scripts/tags.sh:
ignore code of user space tools'), scripts/tags.sh output from
"make cscope tags TAGS" is the same with and without this patch: it doesn't
seems to introduce any regression (on Fedora 20).

Sometimes boot loaders set CPU frequency to a value outside of frequency table
present with cpufreq core. In such cases CPU might be unstable if it has to run
on that frequency for long duration of time and so its better to set it to a
frequency which is specified in frequency table.
Sachin recently found this problem with cpufreq-cpu0 driver when he was testing
it for Exynos.
Set this flag for cpufreq-cpu0 driver.

The calculation code does
u64 = (u32 - u32) * 100000;
The 64 bits are of no help here as the type is casted only after the
multiplication, and therefore the result may overflow, possibly causing
inoptimal or wrong clock setup in an unfortunate case (the maximum
result value of the first substraction is currently 47999).
Fix the code to cast before multiplication.

Commit c9e065c27fe9 ("ASoC: dapm: Make sure to always update the DAPM graph
in _put_volsw()") stopped updating register values in those cases where
initial after boot state of kcontrol appears to not change but where
register value still needs update because it is not in sync with the
kcontrol state.
Fix this by doing snd_soc_test_bits() unconditionally as it was before but
by using separate flags for kcontrol and register state changes. This allow
both DAPM graph to be updated when disabling auto-muted control and update
register if it is out-of-sync in respect of kcontrol state.

Touching the VGA resources on an IVB EFI machine causes hard hangs when
we then kick out the efifb. Ouch.
Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.
Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.
v2: Rebase and pimp commit message.
v3: We also need to unregister the vga console, otherwise the unbind
of the fb console before module unload might resurrect it again.
v4: Ignore errors when the vga console is already unregistered - this
can happen when e.g. reloading i915.ko.

Fix an error message when failed to find given address in --vars
mode.
Without this fix, perf probe -V doesn't show the final "Error"
message if it fails to find given source line. Moreover, it
tells it fails to find "variables" instead of the source line.
-----
# perf probe -V foo@bar
Failed to find variables at foo@bar (0)
-----
The result also shows mysterious error code. Actually the error
returns 0 or -ENOENT means that it just fails to find the address
of given source line. (0 means there is no matching address,
and -ENOENT means there is an entry(DIE) but it has no instance,
e.g. an empty inlined function)
This fixes it to show what happened and the final error message
as below.
-----
# perf probe -V foo@bar
Failed to find the address of foo@bar
Error: Failed to show vars.

Show error code and description only in verbose mode if 'perf probe'
command failed.
Current 'perf probe' shows error code with final error message, and that
is meaningless for many users.
This changes error messages to show the error code and its description
only in verbose mode (-v option).
Without this patch:
-----
# perf probe -a do_execve@hoge
Probe point 'do_execve@hoge' not found.
Error: Failed to add events. (-2)
-----
With this patch, normally the message doesn't show the misterious error
number:
-----
# perf probe -a do_execve@hoge
Probe point 'do_execve@hoge' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.
-----
And in verbose mode, it also shows additional error messages as below:
-----
# perf probe -va do_execve@hoge

commit 2ae76693b8bcabf370b981cd00c36cd41d33fabc
vhost: replace rcu with mutex
replaced rcu sync for memory accesses with VQ mutex locl/unlock.
This is correct since all accesses are under VQ mutex, but incomplete:
we still do useless rcu lock/unlock operations, someone might copy this
code into some other context where this won't be right.
This use of RCU is also non standard and hard to understand.
Let's copy the pointer to each VQ structure, this way
the access rules become straight-forward, and there's
no need for RCU anymore.

All memory accesses are done under some VQ mutex.
So lock/unlock all VQs is a faster equivalent of synchronize_rcu()

Some guests cause a lot of these changes, so it's helpful
to make them faster.

Michael Mueller provided a patch to reduce the size of
vhost-net structure as some allocations could fail under
memory pressure/fragmentation. We are still left with
high order allocations though.
This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing
vhost structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed.
As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT
to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.
People are still looking at cleaner ways to handle the problem
at the API level, probably passing in multiple iovecs.
This hack seems consistent with approaches
taken since then by drivers/vhost/scsi.c and net/core/dev.c
Based on patch by Romain Francoise.

In perf's 'mem-mode', one can get access to a whole bunch of details specific to a
particular sample instruction. A bunch of those details relate to the data
address.
One interesting thing you can do with data addresses is to convert them into a unique
cacheline they belong too. Organizing these data cachelines into similar groups and sorting
them can reveal cache contention.
This patch creates an alogorithm based on various sample details that can help group
entries together into data cachelines and allows 'perf report' to sort on it.
The algorithm relies on having proper mmap2 support in the kernel to help determine
if the memory map the data address belongs to is private to a pid or globally shared.
The alogortithm is as follows:
o group cpumodes together
o group entries with discovered maps together
o sort on major, minor, inode and inode generation numbers
o if userspace anon, then sort on pid
o sort on cachelines based on data addresses
The 'dcacheline' sort option in 'perf report' only works in 'mem-mode'.
Sample output:
#
# Samples: 206 of event 'cpu/mem-loads/pp'
# Total weight : 2534
# Sort order : dcacheline,pid

# Overhead Samples Data Cacheline Command: Pid

Note: Added a '+1' to symlen size in hists__calc_col_len to prevent the next column
from prematurely tabbing over and mis-aligning. Not sure what the problem is.

This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2515990182f3f55b0688a7817325488.
Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon.
Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks
to the revert had to be done:
o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n<7)
o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface

'copy_prev_load' was recently added by commit: 18b46ab (cpufreq: governor: Be
friendly towards latency-sensitive bursty workloads).
It actually is a bit redundant as we also have 'prev_load' which can store any
integer value and can be used instead of 'copy_prev_load' by setting it zero.
True load can also turn out to be zero during long idle intervals (and hence the
actual value of 'prev_load' and the overloaded value can clash). However this is
not a problem because, if the true load was really zero in the previous
interval, it makes sense to evaluate the load afresh for the current interval
rather than copying the previous load.
So, drop 'copy_prev_load' and use 'prev_load' instead.
Update comments as well to make it more clear.
There is another change here which was probably missed by Srivatsa during the
last version of updates he made. The unlikely in the 'if' statement was covering
only half of the condition and the whole line should actually come under it.
Also checkpatch is made more silent as it was reporting this (--strict option):
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis
+ if (unlikely(wall_time > (2 * sampling_rate) &&
+ j_cdbs->prev_load)) {

The mmap2 interface was missing the protection and flags bits needed to
accurately determine if a mmap memory area was shared or private and
if it was readable or not.

With the Sebastian's change of handling num array argument (of raw
syscall enter), the script still failed to work like this:
$ perf record -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
$ perf script -g python
$ perf script -s perf-script.py
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "perf-script.py", line 42, in raw_syscalls__sys_enter
(id, args),
TypeError: %u format: a number is required, not list
Fatal Python error: problem in Python trace event handler
Aborted (core dumped)
This is because the generated script tries to print the array arg as
unsigned integer (%u). Since the python seems to convert arguments to
strings by default, just using %s solved the problem for me.

The file factoring in builtin-inject.c object introduced regression
in attr event callback. The commit is:
3406912 perf inject: Handle output file via perf_data_file object
Following hunk reversed the logic:
- if (!inject->pipe_output)
+ if (&inject->output.is_pipe)
putting it back, following example now works:
$ perf record -o - kill | perf inject -b | perf report -i -
Plus removing extra '&' (kudos to Arnaldo)
