With the permission checks in place it's not longer a security hole. Remove the deprecation warnings.

The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we create initial page tables. In particular, rather than estimating how much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" -- a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand. This has several advantages: 1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way early in the kernel startup). 2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked from above the 4 GB limit. This allows kdump to work on very large systems. 3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks. The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X. Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to __phys_addr()/__pa()." * 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (105 commits) x86, mm: Move reserving low memory later in initialization x86, doc: Clarify the use of asm("%edx") in uaccess.h x86, mm: Redesign get_user with a __builtin_choose_expr hack x86: Be consistent with data size in getuser.S x86, mm: Use a bitfield to mask nuisance get_user() warnings x86/kvm: Fix compile warning in kvm_register_steal_time() x86-32: Add support for 64bit get_user() x86-32, mm: Remove reference to alloc_remap() x86-32, mm: Remove reference to resume_map_numa_kva() x86-32, mm: Rip out x86_32 NUMA remapping code x86/numa: Use __pa_nodebug() instead x86: Don't panic if can not alloc buffer for swiotlb mm: Add alloc_bootmem_low_pages_nopanic() x86, 64bit, mm: hibernate use generic mapping_init x86, 64bit, mm: Mark data/bss/brk to nx x86: Merge early kernel reserve for 32bit and 64bit x86: Add Crash kernel low reservation x86, kdump: Remove crashkernel range find limit for 64bit memblock: Add memblock_mem_size() x86, boot: Not need to check setup_header version for setup_data ...

We need to add another range in /proc/iomem like "Crash kernel low", so kexec-tools could find that info and append to kdump kernel command line. Try to reserve some under 4G if the normal "Crash kernel" is above 4G. User could specify the size with crashkernel_low=XX[KMG]. -v2: fix warning that is found by Fengguang's test robot. -v3: move out get_mem_size change to another patch, to solve compiling warning that is found by Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> -v4: user must specify crashkernel_low if system does not support intel or amd iommu.

The workload has 10 threads, each thread sequentially accesses separate memory region. TLB flush overhead is very big in the workload. For each page, page reclaim need move it from active lru list and then unmap it. Both need a TLB flush. And this is a multthread workload, TLB flush happens in 10 CPUs. In X86, TLB flush uses generic smp_call)function. So this workload stress smp_call_function_many heavily. Without patch, perf shows: + 24.49% [k] generic_smp_call_function_interrupt - 21.72% [k] _raw_spin_lock - _raw_spin_lock + 79.80% __page_check_address + 6.42% generic_smp_call_function_interrupt + 3.31% get_swap_page + 2.37% free_pcppages_bulk + 1.75% handle_pte_fault + 1.54% put_super + 1.41% grab_super_passive + 1.36% __swap_duplicate + 0.68% blk_flush_plug_list + 0.62% swap_info_get + 6.55% [k] flush_tlb_func + 6.46% [k] smp_call_function_many + 5.09% [k] call_function_interrupt + 4.75% [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys + 2.18% [k] find_next_bit swapout throughput is around 1300M/s. With the patch, perf shows: - 27.23% [k] _raw_spin_lock - _raw_spin_lock + 80.53% __page_check_address + 8.39% generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt + 2.44% get_swap_page + 1.76% free_pcppages_bulk + 1.40% handle_pte_fault + 1.15% __swap_duplicate + 1.05% put_super + 0.98% grab_super_passive + 0.86% blk_flush_plug_list + 0.57% swap_info_get + 8.25% [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys + 7.55% [k] call_function_interrupt + 7.47% [k] smp_call_function_many + 7.25% [k] flush_tlb_func + 3.81% [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave + 3.78% [k] generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt swapout throughput is around 1400M/s. So there is around a 7% improvement, and total cpu utilization doesn't change. Without the patch, cfd_data is shared by all CPUs. generic_smp_call_function_interrupt does read/write cfd_data several times which will create a lot of cache ping-pong. With the patch, the data becomes per-cpu. The ping-pong is avoided. And from the perf data, this doesn't make call_single_queue lock contend. Next step is to remove generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() from arch code.

This is dominated largely by the Samsung platforms (s3c, s5p, exynos) and a few of the others moving code out of arch/arm into more appropriate subsystems. The clocksource and irqchip drivers are now abstracted to the point where platforms that are already cleaned up do not need to even specify the driver they use, it can all get configured from the device tree as we do for normal device drivers. The clocksource changes basically touch every single platform in the process. We further clean up the use of platform specific header files here, with the goal of turning more of the platforms over to being "multiplatform" enabled, which implies that they cannot expose their headers to architecture independent code any more. It is expected that no functional changes are part of the cleanup. The overall reduction in total code lines is mostly the result of removing broken and obsolete code." * tag 'cleanup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (133 commits) ARM: mvebu: correct gated clock documentation ARM: kirkwood: add missing include for nsa310 ARM: exynos: move exynos4210-combiner to drivers/irqchip mfd: db8500-prcmu: update resource passing drivers/db8500-cpufreq: delete dangling include ARM: at91: remove NEOCORE 926 board sunxi: Cleanup the reset code and add meaningful registers defines ARM: S3C24XX: header mach/regs-mem.h local ARM: S3C24XX: header mach/regs-power.h local ARM: S3C24XX: header mach/regs-s3c2412-mem.h local ARM: S3C24XX: Remove plat-s3c24xx directory in arch/arm/ ARM: S3C24XX: transform s3c2443 subirqs into new structure ARM: S3C24XX: modify s3c2443 irq init to initialize all irqs ARM: S3C24XX: move s3c2443 irq code to irq.c ARM: S3C24XX: transform s3c2416 irqs into new structure ARM: S3C24XX: modify s3c2416 irq init to initialize all irqs ARM: S3C24XX: move s3c2416 irq init to common irq code ARM: S3C24XX: Modify s3c_irq_wake to use the hwirq property ARM: S3C24XX: Move irq syscore-ops to irq-pm clocksource: always define CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE ...

The main points are: 1) Convert arch_gettimeoffset to a pointer, so that architectures with multiple timer implementations can simply set this standard pointer rather than maintaining their own arch-specific pointers for the same purpose. Various architectures are converted to using this new feature. 2) Conversion of ARM timer implementations to use clock_event_devices's suspend/resume operations, rather than the ARM-specific sys_timer versions. Thus, the ARM code begins to use more common infra-structure rather than arch-specific code. 3) Removal of ARM's struct sys_timer completely, now that everything uses common code. 4) Introduction of drivers/clocksource/clksrc-of.c, which allows ARM clock source implementations to be moved into drivers/clocksource, with the need to add SoC-specific header files for each timer initialization function; instead, all enabled implementations are registered into a table which a single core function iterates over, and calls the relevant initialization functions based on device tree. At least the Tegra and BCM2835 clocksource implementations will use this feature in the 3.9 kernel cycle. * tag 'swarren-for-3.9-arm-timer-rework' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/swarren/linux-tegra: clocksource: add common of_clksrc_init() function ARM: delete struct sys_timer ARM: remove struct sys_timer suspend and resume fields ARM: samsung: register syscore_ops for timer resume directly ARM: ux500: convert timer suspend/resume to clock_event_device ARM: sa1100: convert timer suspend/resume to clock_event_device ARM: pxa: convert timer suspend/resume to clock_event_device ARM: at91: convert timer suspend/resume to clock_event_device ARM: set arch_gettimeoffset directly m68k: set arch_gettimeoffset directly time: convert arch_gettimeoffset to a pointer cris: move usec/nsec conversion to do_slow_gettimeoffset Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>

In many cases, different sub-architectures, different machines, or different timer providers exist, and so the arch ends up implementing arch_gettimeoffset() as a call-through-pointer anyway. Examples are ARM, Cris, M68K, and it's arguable that the remaining architectures, M32R and Blackfin, should be doing this anyway. Modify arch_gettimeoffset so that it itself is a function pointer, which the arch initializes. This will allow later changes to move the initialization of this function into individual machine support or timer drivers. This is particularly useful for code in drivers/clocksource which should rely on an arch-independant mechanism to register their implementation of arch_gettimeoffset(). This patch also converts the Cris architecture to set arch_gettimeoffset directly to the final implementation in time_init(), because Cris already had separate time_init() functions per sub-architecture. M68K and ARM are converted to set arch_gettimeoffset to the final implementation in later patches, because they already have function pointers in place for this purpose.

From Andrey Vagin. 2) VMWARE VM VSOCK layer, from Andy King. 3) Much improved support for virtual functions and SR-IOV in bnx2x, from Ariel ELior. 4) All protocols on ipv4 and ipv6 are now network namespace aware, and all the compatability checks for initial-namespace-only protocols is removed. Thanks to Tom Parkin for helping deal with the last major holdout, L2TP. 5) IPV6 support in netpoll and network namespace support in pktgen, from Cong Wang. 6) Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP) and Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol (MVRP) support, from David Ward. 7) Compute packet lengths more accurately in the packet scheduler, from Eric Dumazet. 8) Use per-task page fragment allocator in skb_append_datato_frags(), also from Eric Dumazet. 9) Add support for connection tracking labels in netfilter, from Florian Westphal. 10) Fix default multicast group joining on ipv6, and add anti-spoofing checks to 6to4 and 6rd. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 11) Make ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation memory limits more reasonable in modern times, rearrange inet frag datastructures for better cacheline locality, and move more operations outside of locking. From Jesper Dangaard Brouer. 12) Instead of strict master <--> slave relationships, allow arbitrary scenerios with "upper device lists". From Jiri Pirko. 13) Improve rate limiting accuracy in TBF and act_police, also from Jiri Pirko. 14) Add a BPF filter netfilter match target, from Willem de Bruijn. 15) Orphan and delete a bunch of pre-historic networking drivers from Paul Gortmaker. 16) Add TSO support for GRE tunnels, from Pravin B SHelar. Although this still needs some minor bug fixing before it's %100 correct in all cases. 17) Handle unresolved IPSEC states like ARP, with a resolution packet queue. From Steffen Klassert. 18) Remove TCP Appropriate Byte Count support (ABC), from Stephen Hemminger. This was long overdue. 19) Support SO_REUSEPORT, from Tom Herbert. 20) Allow locking a socket BPF filter, so that it cannot change after a process drops capabilities. 21) Add VLAN filtering to bridge, from Vlad Yasevich. 22) Bring ipv6 on-par with ipv4 and do not cache neighbour entries in the ipv6 routes, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1538 commits) ipv6: fix race condition regarding dst->expires and dst->from. net: fix a wrong assignment in skb_split() ip_gre: remove an extra dst_release() ppp: set qdisc_tx_busylock to avoid LOCKDEP splat atl1c: restore buffer state net: fix a build failure when !CONFIG_PROC_FS net: ipv4: fix waring -Wunused-variable net: proc: fix build failed when procfs is not configured Revert "xen: netback: remove redundant xenvif_put" net: move procfs code to net/core/net-procfs.c qmi_wwan, cdc-ether: add ADU960S bonding: set sysfs device_type to 'bond' bonding: fix bond_release_all inconsistencies b44: use netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() xen: netback: remove redundant xenvif_put net: fec: Do a sanity check on the gpio number ip_gre: propogate target device GSO capability to the tunnel device ip_gre: allow CSUM capable devices to handle packets bonding: Fix initialize after use for 3ad machine state spinlock bonding: Fix race condition between bond_enslave() and bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate() ...

This is because we iterate 10 times in the softirq dispatcher, and some actions can consume a lot of cycles. This patch changes the fallback to ksoftirqd condition to : - A time limit of 2 ms. - need_resched() being set on current task When one of this condition is met, we wakeup ksoftirqd for further softirq processing if we still have pending softirqs. Using need_resched() as the only condition can trigger RCU stalls, as we can keep BH disabled for too long. I ran several benchmarks and got no significant difference in throughput, but a very significant reduction of latencies (one order of magnitude) : In following bench, 200 antagonist "netperf -t TCP_RR" are started in background, using all available cpus. Then we start one "netperf -t TCP_RR", bound to the cpu handling the NIC IRQ (hard+soft) Before patch : # netperf -H 7.7.7.84 -t TCP_RR -T2,2 -- -k RT_LATENCY,MIN_LATENCY,MAX_LATENCY,P50_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,MEAN_LATENCY,STDDEV_LATENCY MIGRATED TCP REQUEST/RESPONSE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.7.84 () port 0 AF_INET : first burst 0 : cpu bind RT_LATENCY=550110.424 MIN_LATENCY=146858 MAX_LATENCY=997109 P50_LATENCY=305000 P90_LATENCY=550000 P99_LATENCY=710000 MEAN_LATENCY=376989.12 STDDEV_LATENCY=184046.92 After patch : # netperf -H 7.7.7.84 -t TCP_RR -T2,2 -- -k RT_LATENCY,MIN_LATENCY,MAX_LATENCY,P50_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,MEAN_LATENCY,STDDEV_LATENCY MIGRATED TCP REQUEST/RESPONSE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.7.84 () port 0 AF_INET : first burst 0 : cpu bind RT_LATENCY=40545.492 MIN_LATENCY=9834 MAX_LATENCY=78366 P50_LATENCY=33583 P90_LATENCY=59000 P99_LATENCY=69000 MEAN_LATENCY=38364.67 STDDEV_LATENCY=12865.26 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

And if there is no new wakeup event registered, the system will waste at most 20s for such meaningless trying of freezing. With this patch, the value of timeout can be configured to smaller value, so such meaningless trying of freezing will be aborted in earlier time, and later freezing can be also triggered in earlier time. And more power will be saved. In normal case on mobile phone, it costs real little time to freeze processes. On some platform, it only costs about 20ms to freeze user space processes and 10ms to freeze kernel freezable threads.

Compared with PM_SUSPEND_MEMORY, PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves less power because the system is still in a running state. PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE has less resume latency because it does not touch BIOS, and the processors are in idle state. Compared with RTPM/idle, PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves more power as 1. the processor has longer sleep time because processes are frozen. The deeper c-state the processor supports, more power saving we can get. 2. PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE uses system suspend code path, thus we can get more power saving from the devices that does not have good RTPM support. This state is useful for 1) platforms that do not have STR, or have a broken STR. 2) platforms that have an extremely low power idle state, which can be used to replace STR. The following describes how PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state works. 1. echo freeze > /sys/power/state 2. the processes are frozen. 3. all the devices are suspended. 4. all the processors are blocked by a wait queue 5. all the processors idles and enters (Deep) c-state. 6. an interrupt fires. 7. a processor is woken up and handles the irq. 8. if it is a general event, a) the irq handler runs and quites. b) goto step 4. 9. if it is a real wake event, say, power button pressing, keyboard touch, mouse moving, a) the irq handler runs and activate the wakeup source b) wakeup_source_activate() notifies the wait queue. c) system starts resuming from PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE 10. all the devices are resumed. 11. all the processes are unfrozen. 12. system is back to working. Known Issue: The wakeup of this new PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state may behave differently from the previous suspend state. Take ACPI platform for example, there are some GPEs that only enabled when the system is in sleep state, to wake the system backk from S3/S4. But we are not touching these GPEs during transition to PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE. This means we may lose some wake event. But on the other hand, as we do not disable all the Interrupts during PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE, we may get some extra "wakeup" Interrupts, that are not available for S3/S4. The patches has been tested on an old Sony laptop, and here are the results: Average Power: 1. RPTM/idle for half an hour: 14.8W, 12.6W, 14.1W, 12.5W, 14.4W, 13.2W, 12.9W 2. Freeze for half an hour: 11W, 10.4W, 9.4W, 11.3W 10.5W 3. RTPM/idle for three hours: 11.6W 4. Freeze for three hours: 10W 5. Suspend to Memory: 0.5~0.9W Average Resume Latency: 1. RTPM/idle with a black screen: (From pressing keyboard to screen back) Less than 0.2s 2. Freeze: (From pressing power button to screen back) 2.50s 3. Suspend to Memory: (From pressing power button to screen back) 4.33s >From the results, we can see that all the platforms should benefit from this patch, even if it does not have Low Power S0.

Either way you look at it, we are well past both, so push it off a cliff. Note that the POWER_CSTATE and the POWER_PSTATE are part of the legacy tracing API. Remove all tracepoints which use these flags. As can be seen from context, most already have a trace entry via trace_cpu_idle anyways. Also, the cpufreq/cpufreq.c PSTATE one is actually unpaired, as compared to the CSTATE ones which all have a clear start/stop. As part of this, the trace_power_frequency also becomes orphaned, so it too is deleted.

After this change, there only remain a couple of mostly trivial dependencies on cgroup_lock outside cgroup core proper. cgroup_lock is scheduled to be unexported in this devel cycle. This will finally remove the fragile locking order around cgroup (cgroup locking wants to / should be one of the outermost but yet has been acquired from deep inside individual controllers). - At this point, Li is most knowlegeable with cpuset and taking over the maintainership of cpuset. * 'for-3.9-cpuset' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cpuset: drop spurious retval assignment in proc_cpuset_show() cpuset: fix RCU lockdep splat cpuset: update MAINTAINERS cpuset: remove cpuset->parent cpuset: replace cpuset->stack_list with cpuset_for_each_descendant_pre() cpuset: replace cgroup_mutex locking with cpuset internal locking cpuset: schedule hotplug propagation from cpuset_attach() if the cpuset is empty cpuset: pin down cpus and mems while a task is being attached cpuset: make CPU / memory hotplug propagation asynchronous cpuset: drop async_rebuild_sched_domains() cpuset: don't nest cgroup_mutex inside get_online_cpus() cpuset: reorganize CPU / memory hotplug handling cpuset: cleanup cpuset[_can]_attach() cpuset: introduce cpuset_for_each_child() cpuset: introduce CS_ONLINE cpuset: introduce ->css_on/offline() cpuset: remove fast exit path from remove_tasks_in_empty_cpuset() cpuset: remove unused cpuset_unlock()

It depends on cgroup_mutex in cgroup callbacks and grabs cgroup_mutex from other places where it wants to be synchronized. This is majorly messy and highly prone to introducing circular locking dependency especially because cgroup_mutex is supposed to be one of the outermost locks. As previous patches already plugged possible races which may happen by decoupling from cgroup_mutex, replacing cgroup_mutex with cpuset specific cpuset_mutex is mostly straight-forward. Introduce cpuset_mutex, replace all occurrences of cgroup_mutex with it, and add cpuset_mutex locking to places which inherited cgroup_mutex from cgroup core. The only complication is from cpuset wanting to initiate task migration when a cpuset loses all cpus or memory nodes. Task migration may go through full cgroup and all subsystem locking and should be initiated without holding any cpuset specific lock; however, a previous patch already made hotplug handled asynchronously and moving the task migration part outside other locks is easy. cpuset_propagate_hotplug_workfn() now invokes remove_tasks_in_empty_cpuset() without holding any lock.

If hotplug takes down all cpus or mems of a cpuset while attach is in progress, ->attach() may end up putting tasks into an empty cpuset. This patchset makes ->attach() schedule hotplug propagation if the cpuset is empty after attaching is complete. This will move the tasks to the nearest ancestor which can execute and the end result would be as if hotplug handling happened after the tasks finished attaching. cpuset_write_resmask() now also flushes cpuset_propagate_hotplug_wq to wait for propagations scheduled directly by cpuset_attach(). This currently doesn't make any functional difference as everything is protected by cgroup_mutex but enables decoupling the locking.
