There are few things about *pte_alloc*() helpers worth cleaning up:
- 'vma' argument is unused, let's drop it;
- most __pte_alloc() callers do speculative check for pmd_none(),
before taking ptl: let's introduce pte_alloc() macro which does
the check.
The only direct user of __pte_alloc left is userfaultfd, which has
different expectation about atomicity wrt pmd.
- pte_alloc_map() and pte_alloc_map_lock() are redefined using
pte_alloc().

statistics protocol, corresponding to 'Available' in /proc/meminfo.
It indicates to the hypervisor how big the balloon can be inflated
without pushing the guest system to swap. This metric would be very
useful in VM orchestration software to improve memory management of
different VMs under overcommit.
This patch (of 2):
Factor out calculation of the available memory counter into a separate
exportable function, in order to be able to use it in other parts of the
kernel.
In particular, it appears a relevant metric to report to the hypervisor
via virtio-balloon statistics interface (in a followup patch).

Count how many times we put a THP in split queue. Currently, it happens
on partial unmap of a THP.
Rapidly growing value can indicate that an application behaves
unfriendly wrt THP: often fault in huge page and then unmap part of it.
This leads to unnecessary memory fragmentation and the application may
require tuning.
The event also can help with debugging kernel [mis-]behaviour.

Workingset code was recently made memcg aware, but shadow node shrinker
is still global. As a result, one small cgroup can consume all memory
available for shadow nodes, possibly hurting other cgroups by reclaiming
their shadow nodes, even though reclaim distances stored in its shadow
nodes have no effect. To avoid this, we need to make shadow node
shrinker memcg aware.

A page is activated on refault if the refault distance stored in the
corresponding shadow entry is less than the number of active file pages.
Since active file pages can't occupy more than half memory, we assume
that the maximal effective refault distance can't be greater than half
the number of present pages and size the shadow nodes lru list
appropriately. Generally speaking, this assumption is correct, but it
can result in wasting a considerable chunk of memory on stale shadow
nodes in case the portion of file pages is small, e.g. if a workload
mostly uses anonymous memory.
To sort this out, we need to compute the size of shadow nodes lru basing
not on the maximal possible, but the current size of file cache. We
could take the size of active file lru for the maximal refault distance,
but active lru is pretty unstable - it can shrink dramatically at
runtime possibly disrupting workingset detection logic.
Instead we assume that the maximal refault distance equals half the
total number of file cache pages. This will protect us against active
file lru size fluctuations while still being correct, because size of
active lru is normally maintained lower than size of inactive lru.

Allocation of radix_tree_node objects can be easily triggered from
userspace, so we should account them to memory cgroup. Besides, we need
them accounted for making shadow node shrinker per memcg (see
mm/workingset.c).
A tricky thing about accounting radix_tree_node objects is that they are
mostly allocated through radix_tree_preload(), so we can't just set
SLAB_ACCOUNT for radix_tree_node_cachep - that would likely result in a
lot of unrelated cgroups using objects from each other's caches.
One way to overcome this would be making radix tree preloads per memcg,
but that would probably look cumbersome and overcomplicated.
Instead, we make radix_tree_node_alloc() first try to allocate from the
cache with __GFP_ACCOUNT, no matter if the caller has preloaded or not,
and only if it fails fall back on using per cpu preloads. This should
make most allocations accounted.

As kmem accounting is now either enabled for all cgroups or disabled
system-wide, there's no point in having memcg_kmem_online() helper -
instead one can use memcg_kmem_enabled() and mem_cgroup_online(), as
shrink_slab() now does.
There are only two places left where this helper is used -
__memcg_kmem_charge() and memcg_create_kmem_cache(). The former can
only be called if memcg_kmem_enabled() returned true. Since the cgroup
it operates on is online, mem_cgroup_is_root() check will be enough.
memcg_create_kmem_cache() can't use mem_cgroup_online() helper instead
of memcg_kmem_online(), because it relies on the fact that in
memcg_offline_kmem() memcg->kmem_state is changed before
memcg_deactivate_kmem_caches() is called, but there we can just
open-code the check.

Workingset code was recently made memcg aware, but shadow node shrinker
is still global. As a result, one small cgroup can consume all memory
available for shadow nodes, possibly hurting other cgroups by reclaiming
their shadow nodes, even though reclaim distances stored in its shadow
nodes have no effect. To avoid this, we need to make shadow node
shrinker memcg aware.
The actual work is done in patch 6 of the series. Patches 1 and 2
prepare memcg/shrinker infrastructure for the change. Patch 3 is just a
collateral cleanup. Patch 4 makes radix_tree_node accounted, which is
necessary for making shadow node shrinker memcg aware. Patch 5 reduces
shadow nodes overhead in case workload mostly uses anonymous pages.
This patch:
Currently, in the legacy hierarchy kmem accounting is off for all
cgroups by default and must be enabled explicitly by writing something
to memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes. Since we don't support reclaim on
hitting kmem limit, nor do we have any plans to implement it, this is
likely to be -1, just to enable kmem accounting and limit kernel memory
consumption by the memory.limit_in_bytes along with user memory.
This user API was introduced when the implementation of kmem accounting
lacked slab shrinker support and hence was useless in practice. Things
have changed since then - slab shrinkers were made memcg aware, the
accounting overhead seems to be negligible, and a failure to charge a
kmem allocation should not have critical consequences, because we only
account those kernel objects that should be safe to fail. That's why
kmem accounting is enabled by default for all cgroups in the default
hierarchy, which will eventually replace the legacy one.
The ability to enable kmem accounting for some cgroups while keeping it
disabled for others is getting difficult to maintain. E.g. to make
shadow node shrinker memcg aware (see mm/workingset.c), we need to know
the relationship between the number of shadow nodes allocated for a
cgroup and the size of its lru list. If kmem accounting is enabled for
all cgroups there is no problem, but what should we do if kmem
accounting is enabled only for half of cgroups? We've no other choice
but use global lru stats while scanning root cgroup's shadow nodes, but
that would be wrong if kmem accounting was enabled for all cgroups
(which is the case if the unified hierarchy is used), in which case we
should use lru stats of the root cgroup's lruvec.
That being said, let's enable kmem accounting for all memory cgroups by
default. If one finds it unstable or too costly, it can always be
disabled system-wide by passing cgroup.memory=nokmem to the kernel at
boot time.

Similarly to direct reclaim/compaction, kswapd attempts to combine
reclaim and compaction to attempt making memory allocation of given
order available.
The details differ from direct reclaim e.g. in having high watermark as
a goal. The code involved in kswapd's reclaim/compaction decisions has
evolved to be quite complex.
Testing reveals that it doesn't actually work in at least one scenario,
and closer inspection suggests that it could be greatly simplified
without compromising on the goal (make high-order page available) or
efficiency (don't reclaim too much). The simplification relieas of
doing all compaction in kcompactd, which is simply woken up when high
watermarks are reached by kswapd's reclaim.
The scenario where kswapd compaction doesn't work was found with mmtests
test stress-highalloc configured to attempt order-9 allocations without
direct reclaim, just waking up kswapd. There was no compaction attempt
from kswapd during the whole test. Some added instrumentation shows
what happens:
- balance_pgdat() sets end_zone to Normal, as it's not balanced
- reclaim is attempted on DMA zone, which sets nr_attempted to 99, but
it cannot reclaim anything, so sc.nr_reclaimed is 0
- for zones DMA32 and Normal, kswapd_shrink_zone uses testorder=0, so
it merely checks if high watermarks were reached for base pages.
This is true, so no reclaim is attempted. For DMA, testorder=0
wasn't used, as compaction_suitable() returned COMPACT_SKIPPED
- even though the pgdat_needs_compaction flag wasn't set to false, no
compaction happens due to the condition sc.nr_reclaimed >
nr_attempted being false (as 0 < 99)
- priority-- due to nr_reclaimed being 0, repeat until priority reaches
0 pgdat_balanced() is false as only the small zone DMA appears
balanced (curiously in that check, watermark appears OK and
compaction_suitable() returns COMPACT_PARTIAL, because a lower
classzone_idx is used there)
Now, even if it was decided that reclaim shouldn't be attempted on the
DMA zone, the scenario would be the same, as (sc.nr_reclaimed=0 >
nr_attempted=0) is also false. The condition really should use >= as
the comment suggests. Then there is a mismatch in the check for setting
pgdat_needs_compaction to false using low watermark, while the rest uses
high watermark, and who knows what other subtlety. Hopefully this
demonstrates that this is unsustainable.
Luckily we can simplify this a lot. The reclaim/compaction decisions
make sense for direct reclaim scenario, but in kswapd, our primary goal
is to reach high watermark in order-0 pages. Afterwards we can attempt
compaction just once. Unlike direct reclaim, we don't reclaim extra
pages (over the high watermark), the current code already disallows it
for good reasons.
After this patch, we simply wake up kcompactd to process the pgdat,
after we have either succeeded or failed to reach the high watermarks in
kswapd, which goes to sleep. We pass kswapd's order and classzone_idx,
so kcompactd can apply the same criteria to determine which zones are
worth compacting. Note that we use the classzone_idx from
wakeup_kswapd(), not balanced_classzone_idx which can include higher
zones that kswapd tried to balance too, but didn't consider them in
pgdat_balanced().
Since kswapd now cannot create high-order pages itself, we need to
adjust how it determines the zones to be balanced. The key element here
is adding a "highorder" parameter to zone_balanced, which, when set to
false, makes it consider only order-0 watermark instead of the desired
higher order (this was done previously by kswapd_shrink_zone(), but not
elsewhere). This false is passed for example in pgdat_balanced().
Importantly, wakeup_kswapd() uses true to make sure kswapd and thus
kcompactd are woken up for a high-order allocation failure.
The last thing is to decide what to do with pageblock_skip bitmap
handling. Compaction maintains a pageblock_skip bitmap to record
pageblocks where isolation recently failed. This bitmap can be reset by
three ways:
1) direct compaction is restarting after going through the full deferred cycle
2) kswapd goes to sleep, and some other direct compaction has previously
finished scanning the whole zone and set zone->compact_blockskip_flush.
Note that a successful direct compaction clears this flag.
3) compaction was invoked manually via trigger in /proc
The case 2) is somewhat fuzzy to begin with, but after introducing
kcompactd we should update it. The check for direct compaction in 1),
and to set the flush flag in 2) use current_is_kswapd(), which doesn't
work for kcompactd. Thus, this patch adds bool direct_compaction to
compact_control to use in 2). For the case 1) we remove the check
completely - unlike the former kswapd compaction, kcompactd does use the
deferred compaction functionality, so flushing tied to restarting from
deferred compaction makes sense here.
Note that when kswapd goes to sleep, kcompactd is woken up, so it will
see the flushed pageblock_skip bits. This is different from when the
former kswapd compaction observed the bits and I believe it makes more
sense. Kcompactd can afford to be more thorough than a direct
compaction trying to limit allocation latency, or kswapd whose primary
goal is to reclaim.
For testing, I used stress-highalloc configured to do order-9
allocations with GFP_NOWAIT|__GFP_HIGH|__GFP_COMP, so they relied just
on kswapd/kcompactd reclaim/compaction (the interfering kernel builds in
phases 1 and 2 work as usual):

After this patch we see improvements in allocation success rate
(especially for phase 3) along with increased compaction activity. The
compaction stalls (direct compaction) in the interfering kernel builds
(probably THP's) also decreased somewhat thanks to kcompactd activity,
yet THP alloc successes improved a bit.
Note that elapsed and user time isn't so useful for this benchmark,
because of the background interference being unpredictable. It's just
to quickly spot some major unexpected differences. System time is
somewhat more useful and that didn't increase.
Also (after adjusting mmtests' ftrace monitor):
Time kswapd awake 2547781 2269241
Time kcompactd awake 0 119253
Time direct compacting 939937 557649
Time kswapd compacting 0 0
Time kcompactd compacting 0 119099
The decrease of overal time spent compacting appears to not match the
increased compaction stats. I suspect the tasks get rescheduled and
since the ftrace monitor doesn't see that, the reported time is wall
time, not CPU time. But arguably direct compactors care about overall
latency anyway, whether busy compacting or waiting for CPU doesn't
matter. And that latency seems to almost halved.
It's also interesting how much time kswapd spent awake just going
through all the priorities and failing to even try compacting, over and
over.
We can also configure stress-highalloc to perform both direct
reclaim/compaction and wakeup kswapd/kcompactd, by using
GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH|__GFP_COMP:

In this scenario, this patch doesn't change the overall success rate as
direct compaction already tries all it can. There's however significant
reduction in direct compaction stalls (that is, the number of
allocations that went into direct compaction). The number of successes
(i.e. direct compaction stalls that ended up with successful
allocation) is reduced by the same number. This means the offload to
kcompactd is working as expected, and direct compaction is reduced
either due to detecting contention, or compaction deferred by kcompactd.
In the previous version of this patchset there was some apparent
reduction of success rate, but the changes in this version (such as
using sync compaction only), new baseline kernel, and/or averaging
results from 5 executions (my bet), made this go away.

Memory compaction can be currently performed in several contexts:
- kswapd balancing a zone after a high-order allocation failure
- direct compaction to satisfy a high-order allocation, including THP
page fault attemps
- khugepaged trying to collapse a hugepage
- manually from /proc
The purpose of compaction is two-fold. The obvious purpose is to
satisfy a (pending or future) high-order allocation, and is easy to
evaluate. The other purpose is to keep overal memory fragmentation low
and help the anti-fragmentation mechanism. The success wrt the latter
purpose is more
The current situation wrt the purposes has a few drawbacks:
- compaction is invoked only when a high-order page or hugepage is not
available (or manually). This might be too late for the purposes of
keeping memory fragmentation low.
- direct compaction increases latency of allocations. Again, it would
be better if compaction was performed asynchronously to keep
fragmentation low, before the allocation itself comes.
- (a special case of the previous) the cost of compaction during THP
page faults can easily offset the benefits of THP.
- kswapd compaction appears to be complex, fragile and not working in
some scenarios. It could also end up compacting for a high-order
allocation request when it should be reclaiming memory for a later
order-0 request.
To improve the situation, we should be able to benefit from an
equivalent of kswapd, but for compaction - i.e. a background thread
which responds to fragmentation and the need for high-order allocations
(including hugepages) somewhat proactively.
One possibility is to extend the responsibilities of kswapd, which could
however complicate its design too much. It should be better to let
kswapd handle reclaim, as order-0 allocations are often more critical
than high-order ones.
Another possibility is to extend khugepaged, but this kthread is a
single instance and tied to THP configs.
This patch goes with the option of a new set of per-node kthreads called
kcompactd, and lays the foundations, without introducing any new
tunables. The lifecycle mimics kswapd kthreads, including the memory
hotplug hooks.
For compaction, kcompactd uses the standard compaction_suitable() and
ompact_finished() criteria and the deferred compaction functionality.
Unlike direct compaction, it uses only sync compaction, as there's no
allocation latency to minimize.
This patch doesn't yet add a call to wakeup_kcompactd. The kswapd
compact/reclaim loop for high-order pages will be replaced by waking up
kcompactd in the next patch with the description of what's wrong with
the old approach.
Waking up of the kcompactd threads is also tied to kswapd activity and
follows these rules:
- we don't want to affect any fastpaths, so wake up kcompactd only from
the slowpath, as it's done for kswapd
- if kswapd is doing reclaim, it's more important than compaction, so
don't invoke kcompactd until kswapd goes to sleep
- the target order used for kswapd is passed to kcompactd
Future possible future uses for kcompactd include the ability to wake up
kcompactd on demand in special situations, such as when hugepages are
not available (currently not done due to __GFP_NO_KSWAPD) or when a
fragmentation event (i.e. __rmqueue_fallback()) occurs. It's also
possible to perform periodic compaction with kcompactd.

During work on kcompactd integration I have spotted a confusing check of
balance_classzone_idx, which I believe is bogus.
The balanced_classzone_idx is filled by balance_pgdat() as the highest
zone it attempted to balance. This was introduced by commit dc83edd941f4
("mm: kswapd: use the classzone idx that kswapd was using for
sleeping_prematurely()").
The intention is that (as expressed in today's function names), the
value used for kswapd_shrink_zone() calls in balance_pgdat() is the same
as for the decisions in kswapd_try_to_sleep().
An unwanted side-effect of that commit was breaking the checks in
kswapd() whether there was another kswapd_wakeup with a tighter (=lower)
classzone_idx. Commits 215ddd6664ce ("mm: vmscan: only read
new_classzone_idx from pgdat when reclaiming successfully") and
d2ebd0f6b895 ("kswapd: avoid unnecessary rebalance after an unsuccessful
balancing") tried to fixed, but apparently introduced a bogus check that
this patch removes.
Consider zone indexes X < Y < Z, where:
- Z is the value used for the first kswapd wakeup.
- Y is returned as balanced_classzone_idx, which means zones with index higher
than Y (including Z) were found to be unreclaimable.
- X is the value used for the second kswapd wakeup
The new wakeup with value X means that kswapd is now supposed to balance
harder all zones with index <= X. But instead, due to Y < Z, it will go
sleep and won't read the new value X. This is subtly wrong.
The effect of this patch is that kswapd will react better in some
situations, where e.g. the first wakeup is for ZONE_DMA32, the second is
for ZONE_DMA, and due to unreclaimable ZONE_NORMAL. Before this patch,
kswapd would go sleep instead of reclaiming ZONE_DMA harder. I expect
these situations are very rare, and more value is in better
maintainability due to the removal of confusing and bogus check.

As CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC can be enabled/disabled via kernel parameters
we can optimize some cases by checking the enablement state.
This is follow-up work for Christian's Optimize CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/27/194
Remaining work is to make sparc to be aware of this but it looks not

Currently /proc/kpageflags returns just KPF_COMPOUND_TAIL for slab tail
pages, which is inconvenient when grasping how slab pages are
distributed (userspace always needs to check which kind of tail pages by
itself). This patch sets KPF_SLAB for such pages.
With this patch:
$ grep Slab /proc/meminfo ; tools/vm/page-types -b slab
Slab: 64880 kB
flags page-count MB symbolic-flags long-symbolic-flags
0x0000000000000080 16220 63 _______S__________________________________ slab

Slab pages are charged in two steps. First, an appropriate per memcg
cache is selected (see memcg_kmem_get_cache) basing on the current
context, then the new slab page is charged to the memory cgroup which
the selected cache was created for (see memcg_charge_slab ->
__memcg_kmem_charge_memcg). It is OK to bypass kmemcg charge at step 1,
but if step 1 succeeded and we successfully allocated a new slab page,
step 2 must be performed, otherwise we would get a per memcg kmem cache
which contains a slab that does not hold a reference to the memory
cgroup owning the cache. Since per memcg kmem caches are destroyed on
memcg css free, this could result in freeing a cache while there are
still active objects in it.
However, currently we will bypass slab page charge if the memory cgroup
owning the cache is offline (see __memcg_kmem_charge_memcg). This is
very unlikely to occur in practice, because for this to happen a process
must be migrated to a different cgroup and the old cgroup must be
removed while the process is in kmalloc somewhere between steps 1 and 2
(e.g. trying to allocate a new page). Nevertheless, it's still better
to eliminate such a possibility.

When the OOM killer scans tasks and encounters a PF_EXITING one, it
force-selects that task regardless of the score. The problem is that if
that task got stuck waiting for some state the allocation site is
holding, the OOM reaper can not move on to the next best victim.
Frankly, I don't even know why we check for exiting tasks in the OOM
killer. We've tried direct reclaim at least 15 times by the time we
decide the system is OOM, there was plenty of time to exit and free
memory; and a task might exit voluntarily right after we issue a kill.
This is testing pure noise. Remove it.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
- Asynchronous address range scrub:
Given the capacities of next generation persistent memory devices a
scrub operation to find all poison may take 10s of seconds. We
want this scrub work to be done asynchronously with the rest of
system initialization, so we move it out of line from the NFIT
probing, i.e. acpi_nfit_add().
- Clear poison:
ACPI 6.1 introduces the ability to send "clear error" commands to
the ACPI0012:00 device representing the root of an "nvdimm bus".
Similar to relocating a bad block on a disk, this support clears
media errors in response to a write.
- Persistent memory resource tracking:
A persistent memory range may be designated as simply "reserved" by
platform firmware in the efi/e820 memory map. Later when the NFIT
driver loads it discovers that the range is "Persistent Memory".
The NFIT bus driver inserts a resource to advertise that
"persistent" attribute in the system resource tree for /proc/iomem
and kernel-internal usages.
- Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes:
Workaround section misaligned pmem ranges when allocating a struct
page memmap, fix handling of the read-only case in the ioctl path,
and clean up block device major number allocation.

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Most attention this cycle went to optimizing blk-mq request-based DM
(dm-mq) that is used exclussively by DM multipath:
- A stable fix for dm-mq that eliminates excessive context
switching offers the biggest performance improvement (for both
IOPs and throughput).
- But more work is needed, during the next cycle, to reduce
spinlock contention in DM multipath on large NUMA systems.
- A stable fix for a NULL pointer seen when DM stats is enabled on a DM
multipath device that must requeue an IO due to path failure.
- A stable fix for DM snapshot to disallow the COW and origin devices
from being identical. This amounts to graceful failure in the face
of userspace error because these devices shouldn't ever be identical.
- Stable fixes for DM cache and DM thin provisioning to address crashes
seen if/when their respective metadata device experiences failures
that cause the transition to 'fail_io' mode.
- The DM cache 'mq' policy is now an alias for the 'smq' policy. The
'smq' policy proved to be consistently better than 'mq'. As such
'mq', with all its complex user-facing tunables, has been eliminated.
- Improve DM thin provisioning to consistently return -ENOSPC once the
thin-pool's data volume is out of space.
- Improve DM core to properly handle error propagation if
bio_integrity_clone() fails in clone_bio().
- Other small cleanups and improvements to DM core.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the majority of changes go into cpufreq and they are
significant.
First off, the way CPU frequency updates are triggered is different
now. Instead of having to set up and manage a deferrable timer for
each CPU in the system to evaluate and possibly change its frequency
periodically, cpufreq governors set up callbacks to be invoked by the
scheduler on a regular basis (basically on utilization updates). The
"old" governors, "ondemand" and "conservative", still do all of their
work in process context (although that is triggered by the scheduler
now), but intel_pstate does it all in the callback invoked by the
scheduler with no need for any additional asynchronous processing.
Of course, this eliminates the overhead related to the management of
all those timers, but also it allows the cpufreq governor code to be
simplified quite a bit. On top of that, the common code and data
structures used by the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors are
cleaned up and made more straightforward and some long-standing and
quite annoying problems are addressed. In particular, the handling of
governor sysfs attributes is modified and the related locking becomes
more fine grained which allows some concurrency problems to be avoided
(particularly deadlocks with the core cpufreq code).
In principle, the new mechanism for triggering frequency updates
allows utilization information to be passed from the scheduler to
cpufreq. Although the current code doesn't make use of it, in the
works is a new cpufreq governor that will make decisions based on the
scheduler's utilization data. That should allow the scheduler and
cpufreq to work more closely together in the long run.
In addition to the core and governor changes, cpufreq drivers are
updated too. Fixes and optimizations go into intel_pstate, the
cpufreq-dt driver is updated on top of some modification in the
Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework and there are fixes and
other updates in the powernv cpufreq driver.
Apart from the cpufreq updates there is some new ACPICA material,
including a fix for a problem introduced by previous ACPICA updates,
and some less significant changes in the ACPI code, like CPPC code
optimizations, ACPI processor driver cleanups and support for loading
ACPI tables from initrd.
Also updated are the generic power domains framework, the Intel RAPL
power capping driver and the turbostat utility and we have a bunch of
traditional assorted fixes and cleanups.
Specifics:
- Redesign of cpufreq governors and the intel_pstate driver to make
them use callbacks invoked by the scheduler to trigger CPU
frequency evaluation instead of using per-CPU deferrable timers for
that purpose (Rafael Wysocki).
- Reorganization and cleanup of cpufreq governor code to make it more
straightforward and fix some concurrency problems in it (Rafael
Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
- Cleanup and improvements of locking in the cpufreq core (Viresh
Kumar).
- Assorted cleanups in the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh
Kumar, Eric Biggers).
- intel_pstate driver updates including fixes, optimizations and a
modification to make it enable enable hardware-coordinated P-state
selection (HWP) by default if supported by the processor (Philippe
Longepe, Srinivas Pandruvada, Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar, Felipe
Franciosi).
- Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework updates to improve its
handling of voltage regulators and device clocks and updates of the
cpufreq-dt driver on top of that (Viresh Kumar, Jon Hunter).
- Updates of the powernv cpufreq driver to fix initialization and
cleanup problems in it and correct its worker thread handling with
respect to CPU offline, new powernv_throttle tracepoint (Shilpasri
Bhat).
- ACPI cpufreq driver optimization and cleanup (Rafael Wysocki).
- ACPICA updates including one fix for a regression introduced by
previos changes in the ACPICA code (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, David Box,
Colin Ian King).
- Support for installing ACPI tables from initrd (Lv Zheng).
- Optimizations of the ACPI CPPC code (Prashanth Prakash, Ashwin
Chaugule).
- Support for _HID(ACPI0010) devices (ACPI processor containers) and
ACPI processor driver cleanups (Sudeep Holla).
- Support for ACPI-based enumeration of the AMBA bus (Graeme Gregory,
Aleksey Makarov).
- Modification of the ACPI PCI IRQ management code to make it treat
255 in the Interrupt Line register as "not connected" on x86 (as
per the specification) and avoid attempts to use that value as a
valid interrupt vector (Chen Fan).
- ACPI APEI fixes related to resource leaks (Josh Hunt).
- Removal of modularity from a few ACPI drivers (BGRT, GHES,
intel_pmic_crc) that cannot be built as modules in practice (Paul
Gortmaker).
- PNP framework update to make it treat ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_SERIAL_BUS
as a valid resource type (Harb Abdulhamid).
- New device ID (future AMD I2C controller) in the ACPI driver for
AMD SoCs (APD) and in the designware I2C driver (Xiangliang Yu).
- Assorted ACPI cleanups (Colin Ian King, Kaiyen Chang, Oleg Drokin).
- cpuidle menu governor optimization to avoid a square root
computation in it (Rasmus Villemoes).
- Fix for potential use-after-free in the generic device properties
framework (Heikki Krogerus).
- Updates of the generic power domains (genpd) framework including
support for multiple power states of a domain, fixes and debugfs
output improvements (Axel Haslam, Jon Hunter, Laurent Pinchart,
Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Intel RAPL power capping driver updates to reduce IPI overhead in
it (Jacob Pan).
- System suspend/hibernation code cleanups (Eric Biggers, Saurabh
Sengar).
- Year 2038 fix for the process freezer (Abhilash Jindal).
- turbostat utility updates including new features (decoding of more
registers and CPUID fields, sub-second intervals support, GFX MHz
and RC6 printout, --out command line option), fixes (syscall jitter
detection and workaround, reductioin of the number of syscalls
made, fixes related to Xeon x200 processors, compiler warning
fixes) and cleanups (Len Brown, Hubert Chrzaniuk, Chen Yu)"
