Add a helper for MAC drivers to use in their validate callback to deal
with 2500BaseX vs 1000BaseX modes, where the hardware supports both
but it is not possible to automatically select between them.
This helper defaults to 1000BaseX, as that is the 802.3 standard, and
will allow users to select 2500BaseX either by forcing the speed if
AN is disabled, or by changing the advertising mask if AN is enabled.
Disabling AN is not recommended as it is only the speed that we're
interested in controlling, not the duplex or pause mode parameters.

Wen Yang <wen.yang99@zte.com.cn> and majiang <ma.jiang@zte.com.cn>
report that a periodic signal received during fork can cause fork to
continually restart preventing an application from making progress.
The code was being overly pessimistic. Fork needs to guarantee that a
signal sent to multiple processes is logically delivered before the
fork and just to the forking process or logically delivered after the
fork to both the forking process and it's newly spawned child. For
signals like periodic timers that are always delivered to a single
process fork can safely complete and let them appear to logically
delivered after the fork().
While examining this issue I also discovered that fork today will miss
signals delivered to multiple processes during the fork and handled by
another thread. Similarly the current code will also miss blocked
signals that are delivered to multiple process, as those signals will
not appear pending during fork.
Add a list of each thread that is currently forking, and keep on that
list a signal set that records all of the signals sent to multiple
processes. When fork completes initialize the new processes
shared_pending signal set with it. The calculate_sigpending function
will see those signals and set TIF_SIGPENDING causing the new task to
take the slow path to userspace to handle those signals. Making it
appear as if those signals were received immediately after the fork.
It is not possible to send real time signals to multiple processes and
exceptions don't go to multiple processes, which means that that are
no signals sent to multiple processes that require siginfo. This
means it is safe to not bother collecting siginfo on signals sent
during fork.
The sigaction of a child of fork is initially the same as the
sigaction of the parent process. So a signal the parent ignores the
child will also initially ignore. Therefore it is safe to ignore
signals sent to multiple processes and ignored by the forking process.
Signals sent to only a single process or only a single thread and delivered
during fork are treated as if they are received after the fork, and generally
not dealt with. They won't cause any problems.
V2: Added removal from the multiprocess list on failure.
V3: Use -ERESTARTNOINTR directly
V4: - Don't queue both SIGCONT and SIGSTOP
- Initialize signal_struct.multiprocess in init_task
- Move setting of shared_pending to before the new task
is visible to signals. This prevents signals from comming
in before shared_pending.signal is set to delayed.signal
and being lost.
V5: - rework list add and delete to account for idle threads
v6: - Use sigdelsetmask when removing stop signals

It's possible that server replies back with CB_OFFLOAD call and
COPY reply at the same time such that client will process
CB_OFFLOAD before reply to COPY. For that keep a list of pending

check the pending list.

Change xdr to always send COPY asynchronously.
Keep the list copies send in a list under a server structure.
Once copy is sent, it waits on a completion structure that will
be signalled by the callback thread that receives CB_OFFLOAD.
If CB_OFFLOAD returned an error and even if it returned partial

match) and return an error.

regmap: Support non-incrementing registers
Some devices have individual registers that don't autoincrement the
register address during bulk reads but instead repeatedly read the same
value, for example for monitoring GPIOs or ADCs. Add support for these.
|
|
The regmap API usually assumes that bulk read operations will read a
range of registers but some I2C/SPI devices have certain registers for
which a such a read operation will return data from an internal FIFO
instead. Add an explicit API to support bulk read without range semantics.
Some linux drivers use regmap_bulk_read or regmap_raw_read for such
registers, for example mpu6050 or bmi150 from IIO. This only happens to
work because when caching is disabled a single regmap read op will map
to a single bus read op (as desired). This breaks if caching is enabled and
reg+1 happens to be a cacheable register.
Without regmap support refactoring a driver to enable regmap caching
requires separate I2C and SPI paths. This is exactly what regmap is
supposed to help avoid.

New firmware has defined new HCA capability field called "max_num_eqs",
that is the number of available EQs after subtracting reserved FW EQs.
Before this capability the FW reported the EQ number in "log_max_eqs",
the reported value also contained FW reserved EQs, but the driver might
be failing to load on 320 cpus systems due to the fact that FW
reserved EQs were not available to the driver.
Now the driver has to obtain max_num_eqs value from new FW to get real
number of EQs available.

The page table fragment allocator uses the main page refcount racily
with respect to speculative references. A customer observed a BUG due
to page table page refcount underflow in the fragment allocator. This
can be caused by the fragment allocator set_page_count stomping on a
speculative reference, and then the speculative failure handler
decrements the new reference, and the underflow eventually pops when
the page tables are freed.
Fix this by using a dedicated field in the struct page for the page
table fragment allocator.

Josh reported that the late SMT evaluation in cpu_smt_state_init() sets
cpu_smt_control to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED in case that 'nosmt' was supplied
on the kernel command line as it cannot differentiate between SMT disabled
by BIOS and SMT soft disable via 'nosmt'. That wreckages the state and
makes the sysfs interface unusable.
Rework this so that during bringup of the non boot CPUs the availability of
SMT is determined in cpu_smt_allowed(). If a newly booted CPU is not a
'primary' thread then set the local cpu_smt_available marker and evaluate
this explicitely right after the initial SMP bringup has finished.
SMT evaulation on x86 is a trainwreck as the firmware has all the
information _before_ booting the kernel, but there is no interface to query
it.

At present, "systemctl suspend" and "shutdown" can run in parrallel. A
system can suspend after devices_shutdown(), and resume. Then the shutdown
task goes on to power off. This causes many devices are not really shut

from pm_mutex) to achieve the exclusion. The renaming of pm_mutex as

There are only two signals that are delivered to every member of a
signal group: SIGSTOP and SIGKILL. Signal delivery requires every
signal appear to be delivered either before or after a clone syscall.
SIGKILL terminates the clone so does not need to be considered. Which
leaves only SIGSTOP that needs to be considered when creating new
threads.
Today in the event of a group stop TIF_SIGPENDING will get set and the
fork will restart ensuring the fork syscall participates in the group
stop.
A fork (especially of a process with a lot of memory) is one of the
most expensive system so we really only want to restart a fork when
necessary.
It is easy so check to see if a SIGSTOP is ongoing and have the new
thread join it immediate after the clone completes. Making it appear
the clone completed happened just before the SIGSTOP.
The calculate_sigpending function will see the bits set in jobctl and
set TIF_SIGPENDING to ensure the new task takes the slow path to userspace.
V2: The call to task_join_group_stop was moved before the new task is
added to the thread group list. This should not matter as
sighand->siglock is held over both the addition of the threads,
the call to task_join_group_stop and do_signal_stop. But the change
is trivial and it is one less thing to worry about when reading
the code.

Add a function calculate_sigpending to test to see if any signals are
pending for a new task immediately following fork. Signals have to
happen either before or after fork. Today our practice is to push
all of the signals to before the fork, but that has the downside that
frequent or periodic signals can make fork take much much longer than
normal or prevent fork from completing entirely.
So we need move signals that we can after the fork to prevent that.
This updates the code to set TIF_SIGPENDING on a new task if there
are signals or other activities that have moved so that they appear
to happen after the fork.
As the code today restarts if it sees any such activity this won't
immediately have an effect, as there will be no reason for it
to set TIF_SIGPENDING immediately after the fork.
Adding calculate_sigpending means the code in fork can safely be
changed to not always restart if a signal is pending.
The new calculate_sigpending function sets sigpending if there
are pending bits in jobctl, pending signals, the freezer needs
to freeze the new task or the live kernel patching framework
need the new thread to take the slow path to userspace.
I have verified that setting TIF_SIGPENDING does make a new process
take the slow path to userspace before it executes it's first userspace
instruction.
I have looked at the callers of signal_wake_up and the code paths
setting TIF_SIGPENDING and I don't see anything else that needs to be
handled. The code probably doesn't need to set TIF_SIGPENDING for the
kernel live patching as it uses a separate thread flag as well. But
at this point it seems safer reuse the recalc_sigpending logic and get
the kernel live patching folks to sort out their story later.
V2: I have moved the test into schedule_tail where siglock can
be grabbed and recalc_sigpending can be reused directly.
Further as the last action of setting up a new task this
guarantees that TIF_SIGPENDING will be properly set in the
new process.
The helper calculate_sigpending takes the siglock and
uncontitionally sets TIF_SIGPENDING and let's recalc_sigpending
clear TIF_SIGPENDING if it is unnecessary. This allows reusing
the existing code and keeps maintenance of the conditions simple.
Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> suggested the movement
and pointed out the need to take siglock if this code
was going to be called while the new task is discoverable.

We don't want open-by-handle picking half-set-up in-core
struct inode from e.g. mkdir() having failed halfway through.
In other words, we don't want such inodes returned by iget_locked()
on their way to extinction. However, we can't just have them
unhashed - otherwise open-by-handle immediately *after* that would've
ended up creating a new in-core inode over the on-disk one that
is in process of being freed right under us.
Solution: new flag (I_CREATING) set by insert_inode_locked() and
removed by unlock_new_inode() and a new primitive (discard_new_inode())
to be used by such halfway-through-setup failure exits instead of
unlock_new_inode() / iput() combinations. That primitive unlocks new
inode, but leaves I_CREATING in place.
iget_locked() treats finding an I_CREATING inode as failure
(-ESTALE, once we sort out the error propagation).
insert_inode_locked() treats the same as instant -EBUSY.
ilookup() treats those as icache miss.

Netfilter exposes standard hook priorities in case of ipv4, ipv6 and
arp but not in case of bridge.
This patch exposes the hook priority values of the bridge family (which are
different from the formerly mentioned) via uapi so that they can be used by
user-space applications just like the others.
