2017-07-06ext4: fix __ext4_new_inode() journal credits calculationTahsin Erdogan
ea_inode feature allows creating extended attributes that are up to 64k in size. Update __ext4_new_inode() to pick increased credit limits. To avoid overallocating too many journal credits, update __ext4_xattr_set_credits() to make a distinction between xattr create vs update. This helps __ext4_new_inode() because all attributes are known to be new, so we can save credits that are normally needed to delete old values. Also, have fscrypt specify its maximum context size so that we don't end up allocating credits for 64k size.

From JJ: * several bug fixes and cleanups * the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of securityfs symlinks * it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries. * This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top of this. - Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map permission.

2017-07-05sched/cputime: Accumulate vtime on top of nsec clocksourceWanpeng Li
Currently the cputime source used by vtime is jiffies. When we cross a context boundary and jiffies have changed since the last snapshot, the pending cputime is accounted to the switching out context. This system works ok if the ticks are not aligned across CPUs. If they instead are aligned (ie: all fire at the same time) and the CPUs run in userspace, the jiffies change is only observed on tick exit and therefore the user cputime is accounted as system cputime. This is because the CPU that maintains timekeeping fires its tick at the same time as the others. It updates jiffies in the middle of the tick and the other CPUs see that update on IRQ exit: CPU 0 (timekeeper) CPU 1 ------------------- ------------- jiffies = N ... run in userspace for a jiffy tick entry tick entry (sees jiffies = N) set jiffies = N + 1 tick exit tick exit (sees jiffies = N + 1) account 1 jiffy as stime Fix this with using a nanosec clock source instead of jiffies. The cputime is then accumulated and flushed everytime the pending delta reaches a jiffy in order to mitigate the accounting overhead. [ fweisbec: changelog, rebase on struct vtime, field renames, add delta on cputime readers, keep idle vtime as-is (low overhead accounting), harmonize clock sources. ] Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reported-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Tested-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@hotmail.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Acked-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Wanpeng Li <kernellwp@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1498756511-11714-6-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc Pull ARM 64-bit DT updates from Arnd Bergmann: "Device-tree updates for arm64 platforms. For the first time I can remember, this is actually larger than the corresponding branch for 32-bit platforms overall, though that has more individual changes. A significant portion this time is due to added machine support: - Initial support for the Realtek RTD1295 SoC, along with the Zidoo X9S set-top-box - Initial support for Actions Semi S900 and the Bubblegum-96 single-board-cёmputer. - Rockchips support for the rk3399-Firefly single-board-computer gets added, this one stands out for being relatively fast, affordable and well₋supported, compared to many boards that only fall into one or two of the above categories. - Mediatek gains support for the mt6797 mobile-phone SoC platform and corresponding evaluation board. - Amlogic board support gets added for the NanoPi K2 and S905x LibreTech CC single-board computers and the R-Box Pro set-top-box - Allwinner board support gets added for the OrangePi Win, Orangepi Zero Plus 2, NanoPi NEO2 and Orange Pi Prime single board computers and the SoPine system-on-module. - Renesas board support for Salvator-XS and H3ULCB automotive development systems. - Socionext Uniphier board support for LD11-global and LD20-global, whatever those may be. - Broadcom adds support for the new Stingray communication processor in its iProc family, along with two reference boards. Other updates include: - For the hisicon platform, support for Hi3660-Hikey960 gets extended significantly. - Lots of smaller updates for Renesas, Amlogic, Rockchip, UniPhier, Broadcom, Allwinner, Hisilicon, Qualcomm, Marvell, and NXP" * tag 'armsoc-dt64' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (243 commits) ARM64: dts: marvell: armada37xx: Fix timer interrupt specifiers Revert "arm64: dts: marvell: add dma-mask in crypto nodes for 7k/8k" arm64: dts: mediatek: don't include missing file ARM64: dts: meson-gxl: Add Libre Technology CC support dt-bindings: arm: amlogic: Add Libre Technology CC board dt-bindings: add Libre Technology vendor prefix arm64: dts: marvell: enable GICP and ICU on Armada 7K/8K arm64: dts: zte: Use - instead of @ for DT OPP entries arm64: dts: marvell: add gpio support for Armada 7K/8K arm64: dts: marvell: add pinctrl support for Armada 7K/8K arm64: dts: marvell: use new binding for the system controller on cp110 arm64: dts: marvell: remove *-clock-output-names on cp110 arm64: dts: marvell: use new bindings for xor clocks on ap806 arm64: dts: marvell: mcbin: enable the mdio node arm64: dts: Add Actions Semi S900 and Bubblegum-96 dt-bindings: Add vendor prefix for uCRobotics arm64: dts: marvell: add xmdio nodes for 7k/8k arm64: dts: marvell: add a comment on the cp110 slave node status arm64: dts: marvell: remove cpm crypto nodes from dts files arm64: dts: marvell: cp110: enable the crypto engine at the SoC level ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc Pull ARM device-tree updates from Arnd Bergmann: "Device-tree continues to see lots of updates. The majority of patches here are smaller changes for new hardware on existing platforms, and there are a few larger changes worth pointing out. New machines: - The new Action Semi S500 platform is added along with initial support for the LeMaker Guitar board. - STM32 gains support for three new boards: stm32h743-disco, stm32f746-disco, and stm32f769-disco, along with new device support for the existing stm32f429 boards. - Renesas adds two new boards, the tiny GR-Peach based on RZ/A1H with 10MB on-chip SRAM, and the iWave G20D-Q7 System-on-Module plus board. - On Marvell "mvebu", we gain support for the Linksys WRT3200ACM wireless router. - For NXP i.MX, we gain support for the Gateworks Ventana GW5600 and the Technexion Pico i.MX7D single-board computers. - The BeagleBone Blue is added for OMAP, it's the latest variation of the popular Beaglebone Black single-board computer. - The Allwinner based Lichee Pi Zero and NanoPi M1 Plus boards are added, these are the latest variations of a seemingly endless supply of similar single-board computers. Other updates: - Linus Walleij improves support for the "Faraday" based SoC platforms from various SoC makers (Moxart, Aspeed, Gemini) - The ARM Mali GPU is now describe on Rockchips SoCs - Mediatek MT7623 is extended significantly, making it much more useful. - Lots of individual updates on Renesas, OMAP, Rockchips, Broadcom, Allwinner, Qualcomm, iMX - For Amlogic, the clock support is extended a lot on meson8b. - We now build the devicetree file for the Raspberry Pi 3 on 32-bit ARM, in addition to the existing ARM64 support, to help users wanting to run a 32-bit system on it" * tag 'armsoc-dt' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (345 commits) ARM: dts: socfpga: set the i2c frequency ARM: dts: socfpga: Add second ethernet alias to VINING FPGA ARM: dts: socfpga: Drop LED node from VINING FPGA ARM: dts: socfpga: Remove I2C EEPROMs from VINING FPGA ARM: dts: socfpga: Enable QSPI support on VINING FPGA ARM: dts: socfpga: Fix the ethernet clock phandle ARM: pxa: Use - instead of @ for DT OPP entries ARM: dts: owl-s500: Add SPS node ARM: dts: owl-s500: Set CPU enable-method dt-bindings: arm: cpus: Add S500 enable-method ARM: dts: Add Actions Semi S500 and LeMaker Guitar dt-bindings: arm: Document Actions Semi S900 dt-bindings: timer: Document Owl timer ARM: dts: imx6q-cm-fx6: add sdio wifi/bt nodes dt-bindings: arm: Document Actions Semi S500 dt-bindings: Add vendor prefix for Actions Semi ARM: dts: turris-omnia: Add generic compatible string for I2C EEPROM ARM: dts: mvebu: add support for Linksys WRT3200ACM (Rango) ARM: dts: armada-385-linksys: fixup button node names ARM: dts: armada-385-linksys: group pins in pinctrl ...
