Recent optimistic spinning additions to rwsem provide significant performance
benefits on many workloads on large machines. The cost of it was increasing
the size of the rwsem structure by up to 128 bits.
However, now that the previous patches in this series bring the overhead of
struct optimistic_spin_queue to 32 bits, this patch reorders some fields in
struct rw_semaphore such that we can reduce the overhead of the rwsem structure
by 64 bits (on 64 bit systems).
The extra overhead required for rwsem optimistic spinning would now be up
to 8 additional bytes instead of up to 16 bytes. Additionally, the size of
rwsem would now be more in line with mutexes.

There are two definitions of struct rw_semaphore, one in linux/rwsem.h
and one in linux/rwsem-spinlock.h.
For some reason they have different names for the initial field. This
makes it impossible to use C99 named initialization for
__RWSEM_INITIALIZER() -- or we have to duplicate that entire thing
along with the structure definitions.
The simpler patch is renaming the rwsem-spinlock variant to match the
regular rwsem.
This allows us to switch to C99 named initialization.

proc_sched_show_task() does:
if (nr_switches)
do_div(avg_atom, nr_switches);
nr_switches is unsigned long and do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which
means it can test non-zero on e.g. x86-64 and be truncated to zero for
division.
Fix the problem by using div64_ul() instead.
As a side effect calculations of avg_atom for big nr_switches are now correct.

It's unnecessary to excessively spam the kernel log anytime the BTS buffer
cannot be allocated, so make this allocation __GFP_NOWARN.
The user probably will want to at least find some artifact that the
allocation has failed in the past, probably due to fragmentation because
of its large size, when it's not allocated at bootstrap. Thus, add a
WARN_ONCE() so something is left behind for them to understand why perf
commnads that require PEBS is not working properly.

In the unlock function of the cancellable MCS spinlock, the first
thing we do is to retrive the current CPU's osq node. However, due to
the changes made in the previous patch, in the common case where the
lock is not contended, we wouldn't need to access the current CPU's
osq node anymore.
This patch optimizes this by only retriving this CPU's osq node
after we attempt the initial cmpxchg to unlock the osq and found
that its contended.

Currently, we initialize the osq lock by directly setting the lock's values. It
would be preferable if we use an init macro to do the initialization like we do
with other locks.
This patch introduces and uses a macro and function for initializing the osq lock.

The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are
doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining
the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that
it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using
pointers to these nodes.
In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we
store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t.
A similar concept is used with the qspinlock.
By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers
to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock
by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is
named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series
we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for
the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named
"optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the
"optimistic_spin_queue" structure are "nodes", it might be better if we
rename them to "node" anyway.
This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue"
to "optimistic_spin_node".

Commit 4fc828e24cd9 ("locking/rwsem: Support optimistic spinning")
introduced a major performance regression for workloads such as
xfs_repair which mix read and write locking of the mmap_sem across
many threads. The result was xfs_repair ran 5x slower on 3.16-rc2
than on 3.15 and using 20x more system CPU time.
Perf profiles indicate in some workloads that significant time can
be spent spinning on !owner. This is because we don't set the lock
owner when readers(s) obtain the rwsem.
In this patch, we'll modify rwsem_can_spin_on_owner() such that we'll
return false if there is no lock owner. The rationale is that if we
just entered the slowpath, yet there is no lock owner, then there is
a possibility that a reader has the lock. To be conservative, we'll
avoid spinning in these situations.
This patch reduced the total run time of the xfs_repair workload from
about 4 minutes 24 seconds down to approximately 1 minute 26 seconds,
back to close to the same performance as on 3.15.
Retesting of AIM7, which were some of the workloads used to test the
original optimistic spinning code, confirmed that we still get big
performance gains with optimistic spinning, even with this additional
regression fix. Davidlohr found that while the 'custom' workload took
a performance hit of ~-14% to throughput for >300 users with this
additional patch, the overall gain with optimistic spinning is
still ~+45%. The 'disk' workload even improved by ~+15% at >1000 users.

With -cpu host, KVM reports LBR and extra_regs support, if the host has
support.
When the guest perf driver tries to access LBR or extra_regs MSR,
it #GPs all MSR accesses,since KVM doesn't handle LBR and extra_regs support.
So check the related MSRs access right once at initialization time to avoid
the error access at runtime.
For reproducing the issue, please build the kernel with CONFIG_KVM_INTEL = y
(for host kernel).
And CONFIG_PARAVIRT = n and CONFIG_KVM_GUEST = n (for guest kernel).
Start the guest with -cpu host.
Run perf record with --branch-any or --branch-filter in guest to trigger LBR
Run perf stat offcore events (E.g. LLC-loads/LLC-load-misses ...) in guest to
trigger offcore_rsp #GP

Urgh.. so the only way I can make that happen is through:
perf_event_exit_task_context()
raw_spin_lock(&child_ctx->lock);
unclone_ctx(child_ctx)
put_ctx(ctx->parent_ctx);
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&child_ctx->lock);
And we can avoid this by doing the change below.
I can't immediately see how this changed recently, but given that you
say it's easy to reproduce, lets fix this.

Vince reported that commit 15a2d4de0eab5 ("perf: Always destroy groups
on exit") causes a regression with grouped events. In particular his
read_group_attached.c test fails.
https://github.com/deater/perf_event_tests/blob/master/tests/bugs/read_group_attached.c
Because of the context switch optimization in
perf_event_context_sched_out() the 'original' event may end up in the
child process and when that exits the change in the patch in question
destroys the actual grouping.
Therefore revert that change and only destroy inherited groups.

MSI irqchip in s390 has its own mask and unmask MSI irq
functions, zpci_enable_irq() and zpci_disable_irq().
They mask and unmask MSI irq in standard ways, no arch
special. MSI driver provides two global standard functions
mask_msi_irq() and unmask_msi_irq(). Local zpci_enable_irq()
and zpci_disable_irq() are almost the same as the standard
two. the difference is local mask/unmask functions
read the mask status before mask and unmask everytime.
Then change the value and rewrite to hardware. In standard
functions, save the mask status after mask and unmask msi
irq, and use the cached status to change the mask status.
When we mask or unmask a MSI irq, we always cache its
mask status except we know need not to cache it, like in
pci_msi_shutdown. So use the standard functions to replace
the local is safe.

ring_buffer_poll_wait() should always put the poll_table to its wait_queue
even there is immediate data available. Otherwise, the following epoll and
read sequence will eventually hang forever:
1. Put some data to make the trace_pipe ring_buffer read ready first
2. epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, trace_pipe_fd, ee)
3. epoll_wait()
4. read(trace_pipe_fd) till EAGAIN
5. Add some more data to the trace_pipe ring_buffer
6. epoll_wait() -> this epoll_wait() will block forever
~ During the epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD,...) call in step 2,
ring_buffer_poll_wait() returns immediately without adding poll_table,
which has poll_table->_qproc pointing to ep_poll_callback(), to its
wait_queue.
~ During the epoll_wait() call in step 3 and step 6,
ring_buffer_poll_wait() cannot add ep_poll_callback() to its wait_queue
because the poll_table->_qproc is NULL and it is how epoll works.
~ When there is new data available in step 6, ring_buffer does not know
it has to call ep_poll_callback() because it is not in its wait queue.
Hence, block forever.
Other poll implementation seems to call poll_wait() unconditionally as the very
first thing to do. For example, tcp_poll() in tcp.c.

st_gpio_irqmux_handler() reads the status register to find out
which banks inside the controller have pending IRQs.
For each banks having pending IRQs, it calls the corresponding handler.
Problem is that current code restricts the number of possible banks inside the
controller to ST_GPIO_PINS_PER_BANK. This define represents the number of pins
inside a bank, so it shouldn't be used here.
On STiH407, PIO_FRONT0 controller has 10 banks, so IRQs pending in the two
last banks (PIO18 & PIO19) aren't handled.
This patch replace ST_GPIO_PINS_PER_BANK by the number of banks inside the
controller.

The block size for the thin-pool's data device must remained fixed for
the life of the thin-pool. Disallow any attempt to change the
thin-pool's data block size.
It should be noted that attempting to change the data block size via
thin-pool table reload will be ignored as a side-effect of the thin-pool
handover that the thin-pool target does during thin-pool table reload.
Here is an example outcome of attempting to load a thin-pool table that
reduced the thin-pool's data block size from 1024K to 512K.
Before:
kernel: device-mapper: thin: 253:4: growing the data device from 204800 to 409600 blocks

libata-eh.c should handle AMNF error condition (error byte bit 0,
usually code 0x01) in libata-eh.c along with UNC as a media error so
SCSI stack can handle it properly (translation code 0x01 is already
present in libata-scsi.c) but was never passed down due to lack of
handling in EH.
While using linux-based machine (AMD 6550M-based notebook, PCI IDs for the
controller are 1022:7801 subsys 1025:059d) and ddrescue to salvage data
from failing hard drive (WD7500BPVT 2.5" 750G SATA2), I've found that pure
AMNF 0x01 error code generates generic "device error" that is retried
several times by SCSI stack instead of "media error" that is passed up to
software.
So we may assume deprecated AMNF error code is surely not dead yet, and
it's better for it to be handled properly. As we may see it is used by
modern enough devices, and used properly: drive returned AMNF only when IDs
for track cannot be read completely due to dying head or positioning,
otherwise it returned UNC(orrectables).
Not handling it causes wrong generic error code ("device error") reporting
down the stack, can damage failing drives further because of excessive
retries, and slows salvaging down a lot. Also, there is handling code in
libata-scsi.c for 0x01 AMNF error already.

Running my ftrace tests on PowerPC, it failed the test that checks
if function_graph tracer is affected by the stack tracer. It was.
Looking into this, I found that the update_function_graph_func()
must be called even if the trampoline function is not changed.
This is because archs like PowerPC do not support ftrace_ops being
passed by assembly and instead uses a helper function (what the
trampoline function points to). Since this function is not changed
even when multiple ftrace_ops are added to the code, the test that
falls out before calling update_function_graph_func() will miss that
the update must still be done.
Call update_function_graph_function() for all calls to
update_ftrace_function()

Currently trace option stacktrace is not applicable for
trace_printk with constant string argument, the reason is
in __trace_puts/__trace_bputs ftrace_trace_stack is missing.
In contrast, when using trace_printk with non constant string
argument(will call into __trace_printk/__trace_bprintk), then
trace option stacktrace is workable, this inconstant result
will confuses users a lot.

When the initialization of Intel HDMI controller fails due to missing
i915 kernel symbols (e.g. HD-audio is built in while i915 is module),
the driver discontinues the probe. However, since the probe was done
asynchronously, the driver object still remains, thus the relevant PM
ops are still called at suspend/resume. This results in the bad access
to the incomplete audio card object, eventually leads to Oops or stall
at PM.
This patch adds the missing checks of chip->init_failed flag at each
PM callback in order to fix the problem above.

The commit [247bc037: PM / Sleep: Mitigate race between the freezer
and request_firmware()] introduced the finer state control, but it
also leads to a new bug; for example, a bug report regarding the
firmware loading of intel BT device at suspend/resume:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873790
The root cause seems to be a small window between the process resume
and the clear of usermodehelper lock. The request_firmware() function
checks the UMH lock and gives up when it's in UMH_DISABLE state. This
is for avoiding the invalid f/w loading during suspend/resume phase.
The problem is, however, that usermodehelper_enable() is called at the
end of thaw_processes(). Thus, a thawed process in between can kick
off the f/w loader code path (in this case, via btusb_setup_intel())
even before the call of usermodehelper_enable(). Then
usermodehelper_read_trylock() returns an error and request_firmware()
spews WARN_ON() in the end.
This oneliner patch fixes the issue just by setting to UMH_FREEZING
state again before restarting tasks, so that the call of
request_firmware() will be blocked until the end of this function
instead of returning an error.

When the module sends bursts of data, sometimes a deadlock happens in
the hso driver when the tty buffer doesn't get the chance to be flushed

If there isn't enough room in the tty buffer, discards all the data
