2016-09-30libnvdimm, label: convert label tracking to a linked listDan Williams
In preparation for enabling multiple namespaces per pmem region, convert the label tracking to use a linked list. In particular this will allow select_pmem_id() to move labels from the unvalidated state to the validated state. Currently we only track one validated set per-region.

Before we add more libnvdimm-private fields to nd_mapping make it clear which parameters are input vs libnvdimm internals. Use struct nd_mapping_desc instead of struct nd_mapping in nd_region_desc and make struct nd_mapping private to libnvdimm. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

2016-09-30libnvdimm: clear the internal poison_list when clearing badblocksVishal Verma
nvdimm_clear_poison cleared the user-visible badblocks, and sent commands to the NVDIMM to clear the areas marked as 'poison', but it neglected to clear the same areas from the internal poison_list which is used to marshal ARS results before sorting them by namespace. As a result, once on-demand ARS functionality was added: 37b137f nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demand A scrub triggered from either sysfs or an MCE was found to be adding stale entries that had been cleared from gendisk->badblocks, but were still present in nvdimm_bus->poison_list. Additionally, the stale entries could be triggered into producing stale disk->badblocks by simply disabling and re-enabling the namespace or region. This adds the missing step of clearing poison_list entries when clearing poison, so that it is always in sync with badblocks.

Things like nvdimm_clear_poison may want to do nvdimm subsystem bookkeeping operations that may involve taking locks or doing memory allocations, and we can't do that from the atomic context.

Starting a full Address Range Scrub (ARS) on hitting a memory error machine check exception may not always be desirable. Provide a way through sysfs to toggle the behavior between just adding the address (cache line) where the MCE happened to the poison list and doing a full scrub. The former (selective insertion of the address) is done unconditionally. Cc: linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org Cc: Linda Knippers <linda.knippers@hpe.com> Cc: Rafael J.

2016-10-01drm/exynos: g2d: use autosuspend mode for PM runtimeTobias Jakobi
The runqueue worker currently issues a get() when a new node is processed, and a put() once a node is completed. The corresponding suspend and resume calls currently only do clock gating, but with the upcoming introduction of IOMMU runpm also the corresponding IOMMU domain gets enabled (for get()) and disabled (for put()). This introduces performance regressions with we mitigate here. Switch PM runtime to autosuspend, such that clock gating and IOMMU control only happens when the engine is idle for a 'long' time.

While the engine works on a runqueue node it does memory access to the buffers associated with that node. Make sure that the engine is idle when g2d_close() and/or g2d_remove() are called, i.e. buffer associated with the process (for g2d_close()), or all buffers (for g2d_remove()) can be safely be unmapped. We have to take into account that the engine might be in an undefined state, i.e. it hangs and doesn't become idle. In this case, we issue a hardware reset to return the hardware and the driver context into a proper state.

Support the driver_override scheme introduced with commit 782a985d7af2 ("PCI: Introduce new device binding path using pci_dev.driver_override") As pcistub_probe() is called for all devices (it has to check for a match based on the slot address rather than device type) it has to check for driver_override set to "pciback" itself. Up to now for assigning a pci device to pciback you need something like: echo 0000:07:10.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:07\:10.0/driver/unbind echo 0000:07:10.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot echo 0000:07:10.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe while with the patch you can use the same mechanism as for similar drivers like pci-stub and vfio-pci: echo pciback > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:07\:10.0/driver_override echo 0000:07:10.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:07\:10.0/driver/unbind echo 0000:07:10.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe So e.g. libvirt doesn't need special handling for pciback.

2016-09-30xen: Remove event channel notification through Xen PCI platform deviceKarimAllah Ahmed
Ever since commit 254d1a3f02eb ("xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel") using the INTx interrupt from Xen PCI platform device for event channel notification would just lockup the guest during bootup. postcore_initcall now calls xs_reset_watches which will eventually try to read a value from XenStore and will get stuck on read_reply at XenBus forever since the platform driver is not probed yet and its INTx interrupt handler is not registered yet. That means that the guest can not be notified at this moment of any pending event channels and none of the per-event handlers will ever be invoked (including the XenStore one) and the reply will never be picked up by the kernel. The exact stack where things get stuck during xenbus_init: -xenbus_init -xs_init -xs_reset_watches -xenbus_scanf -xenbus_read -xs_single -xs_single -xs_talkv Vector callbacks have always been the favourite event notification mechanism since their introduction in commit 38e20b07efd5 ("x86/xen: event channels delivery on HVM.") and the vector callback feature has always been advertised for quite some time by Xen that's why INTx was broken for several years now without impacting anyone. Luckily this also means that event channel notification through INTx is basically dead-code which can be safely removed without impacting anybody since it has been effectively disabled for more than 4 years with nobody complaining about it (at least as far as I'm aware of). This commit removes event channel notification through Xen PCI platform device.

2016-09-30s390/con3270: fix insufficient space paddingSascha Silbe
con3270 contains an optimisation that reduces the amount of data to be transmitted to the 3270 terminal by putting a Repeat to Address (RA) order into the data stream. The RA order itself takes up space, so con3270 only uses it if there's enough space left in the line buffer. Otherwise it just pads out the line manually. For lines that were _just_ short enough that the RA order still fit in the line buffer, the line was instead padded with an insufficient amount of spaces. This was caused by examining the size of the allocated line buffer rather than the length of the string to be displayed. For con3270_cline_end(), we just compare against the line length. For con3270_update_string() however that isn't available anymore, so we check whether the Repeat to Address order is present. Fixes: f51320a5 ("[PATCH] s390: new 3270 driver.")

2016-09-30s390/con3270: fix use of uninitialised dataSascha Silbe
con3270 contains an optimisation that reduces the amount of data to be transmitted to the 3270 terminal by putting a Repeat to Address (RA) order into the data stream. The RA order itself takes up space, so con3270 only uses it if there's enough space left in the line buffer. Otherwise it just pads out the line manually. For lines too long to include the RA order, one byte was left uninitialised. This was caused by an off-by-one bug in the loop that pads out the line. Since the buffer is allocated from a common pool, the single byte left uninitialised contained some previous buffer content. Usually this was just a space or some character (which can result in clutter but is otherwise harmless). Sometimes, however, it was a Repeat to Address order, messing up the entire screen layout and causing the display to send the entire buffer content on every keystroke.
