It is a hard requirement to include the upstream commit ID in the
changelog of a -stable submission, not just a courtesy to the stable
team.  This concerns only mail submission though, which is no longer
the only way into stable.  (Also, fix a double "the".)

Frederic Weisbecker cecbca96da tracing: Dump either the oops's cpu source or all cpus buffers
The ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter, sysctl and sysrq let one
dump every cpu buffers when an oops or panic happens.

It's nice when you have few cpus but it may take ages if have many,
plus you miss the real origin of the problem in all the cpu traces.

Sometimes, all you need is to dump the cpu buffer that triggered the
opps, most of the time it is our main interest.

This patch modifies ftrace_dump_on_oops to handle this choice.

The ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter, when it comes alone, has
the same behaviour than before. But ftrace_dump_on_oops=orig_cpu
will only dump the buffer of the cpu that oops'ed.

Similarly, sysctl kernel.ftrace_dump_on_oops=1 and
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops keep their previous
behaviour. But setting 2 jumps into cpu origin dump mode.

v2: Fix double setup
v3: Fix spelling issues reported by Randy Dunlap
v4: Also update __ftrace_dump in the selftests

Lin Ming aa2110cb1a ACPI: add boot option acpi=copy_dsdt to fix corrupt DSDT
Some BIOS on Toshiba machines corrupt the DSDT, so add a new
boot option acpi=copy_dsdt to workaround it.
Add warning message to ask users to use this option if corrupt DSDT detected.

Also build a DMI blacklist to check it and automatically copy DSDT.

kprobe tracer. With this patch, users can specify above basic types on

unsigned long (u32 or u64, arch-dependent).

 e.g.
  echo 'p account_system_time+0 hardirq_offset=%si:s32' > kprobe_events

  adds a probe recording hardirq_offset in signed-32bits value on the

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Russell King 091e635e67 Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt: correct cpu_relax() documentation
cpu_relax() is documented in volatile-considered-harmful.txt to be a
memory barrier.  However, everyone with the exception of Blackfin and
possibly ia64 defines cpu_relax() to be a compiler barrier.

Make the documentation reflect the general concensus.

Linus sayeth:

: I don't think it was ever the intention that it would be seen as anything
: but a compiler barrier, although it is obviously implied that it might
: well perform some per-architecture actions that have "memory barrier-like"
: semantics.
:
: After all, the whole and only point of the "cpu_relax()" thing is to tell
: the CPU that we're busy-looping on some event.
:
: And that "event" might be (and often is) about reading the same memory
: location over and over until it changes to what we want it to be.  So it's
: quite possible that on various architectures the "cpu_relax()" could be
: about making sure that such a tight loop on loads doesn't starve cache
: transactions, for example - and as such look a bit like a memory barrier
: from a CPU standpoint.
:
: But it's not meant to have any kind of architectural memory ordering
: semantics as far as the kernel is concerned - those must come from other
: sources.

Shane Wang 4bd96a7a81 x86, tboot: Add support for S3 memory integrity protection
This patch adds support for S3 memory integrity protection within an Intel(R)
TXT launched kernel, for all kernel and userspace memory.  All RAM used by the
kernel and userspace, as indicated by memory ranges of type E820_RAM and
E820_RESERVED_KERN in the e820 table, will be integrity protected.

The MAINTAINERS file is also updated to reflect the maintainers of the
TXT-related code.

All MACing is done in tboot, based on a complexity analysis and tradeoff.

v3: Compared with v2, this patch adds a check of array size in
tboot.c, and a note to specify which c/s of tboot supports this kind
of MACing in intel_txt.txt.

FUJITA Tomonori 6a1961f49e dma-mapping: dma-mapping.h: add dma_set_coherent_mask
dma_set_coherent_mask corresponds to pci_set_consistent_dma_mask.  This is
necessary to move to the generic device model DMA API from the PCI bus
specific API in the long term.

dma_set_coherent_mask works in the exact same way that
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask does.  So this patch also changes
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask to call dma_set_coherent_mask.

FUJITA Tomonori 8127bfc564 DMA-API.txt: remove dma_sync_single_range description
dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device supports a partial sync so there is no
point to have dma_sync_single_range (also dma_sync_single was obsoleted
long ago, replaced with dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device).

There is no user of dma_sync_single_range() in mainline and only Alpha
architecture supports dma_sync_single_range().  So it's unlikely that
someone out of the tree uses it.

FUJITA Tomonori 9705ef7ec8 DMA-API.txt: add dma_sync_single/sg API description
This adds the description of the following eight function:

dma_sync_single_for_cpu
pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu
dma_sync_single_for_device
pci_dma_sync_single_for_device
dma_sync_sg_for_cpu
pci_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu
dma_sync_sg_for_device
pci_dma_sync_sg_for_device

It was unclear that the API permits a partial sync (some network drivers
already do though).  I made it clear that the sync_single API can do a
partial sync but the sync_sg API can't.

We could do a partial sync with the sync_sg API too, however, it's
difficult for driver writers to correctly use the sync_sg API for a
partial sync since the scatterlists passed in to the mapping API can't be
modified.  It's unlikely that driver writers want to do a partial sync
with the sync_sg API (because the sync_sg API are usually used for block
drivers).  So I think that it's better to forbid a partial sync with the
sync_sg API.

CPU used by kipmid to help in those cases.  By setting kipmid_max_busy_us
to a value between 100 and 500, it is possible to bring down kipmid CPU
load to practically 0 without loosing too much ipmi throughput
performance.  Not setting the value, or setting the value to zero,
operation is unaffected.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki daaf1e6887 memcg: handle panic_on_oom=always case
Presently, if panic_on_oom=2, the whole system panics even if the oom
happend in some special situation (as cpuset, mempolicy....).  Then,
panic_on_oom=2 means painc_on_oom_always.

Now, memcg doesn't check panic_on_oom flag. This patch adds a check.

BTW, how it's useful ?

kdump+panic_on_oom=2 is the last tool to investigate what happens in
oom-ed system.  When a task is killed, the sysytem recovers and there will
be few hint to know what happnes.  In mission critical system, oom should
never happen.  Then, panic_on_oom=2+kdump is useful to avoid next OOM by
knowing precise information via snapshot.

TODO:
 - For memcg, it's for isolate system's memory usage, oom-notiifer and
   freeze_at_oom (or rest_at_oom) should be implemented. Then, management
   daemon can do similar jobs (as kdump) or taking snapshot per cgroup.

Kirill A. Shutemov 2e72b6347c memcg: implement memory thresholds
It allows to register multiple memory and memsw thresholds and gets
notifications when it crosses.

To register a threshold application need:
- create an eventfd;
- open memory.usage_in_bytes or memory.memsw.usage_in_bytes;
- write string like "<event_fd> <memory.usage_in_bytes> <threshold>" to
  cgroup.event_control.

Application will be notified through eventfd when memory usage crosses
threshold in any direction.

It's applicable for root and non-root cgroup.

It uses stats to track memory usage, simmilar to soft limits. It checks
if we need to send event to userspace on every 100 page in/out. I guess
it's good compromise between performance and accuracy of thresholds.

Kirill A. Shutemov 0dea116876 cgroup: implement eventfd-based generic API for notifications
This patchset introduces eventfd-based API for notifications in cgroups

Non-root cgroup after changes (1 thresholds, never crossed):
	make -j2  507.55 user 64.08s system 193% cpu 4:55.63 total

This patch:

Introduce the write-only file "cgroup.event_control" in every cgroup.

To register new notification handler you need:
- create an eventfd;
- open a control file to be monitored. Callbacks register_event() and
  unregister_event() must be defined for the control file;
- write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control.
  Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation;

eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the
cgroup is removed.

To unregister notification handler just close eventfd.

If you need notification functionality for a control file you have to
implement callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() in the
struct cftype.

Daisuke Nishimura 024914477e memcg: move charges of anonymous swap
This patch is another core part of this move-charge-at-task-migration
feature.  It enables moving charges of anonymous swaps.

To move the charge of swap, we need to exchange swap_cgroup's record.

In current implementation, swap_cgroup's record is protected by:

  - page lock: if the entry is on swap cache.
  - swap_lock: if the entry is not on swap cache.

This works well in usual swap-in/out activity.

But this behavior make the feature of moving swap charge check many
conditions to exchange swap_cgroup's record safely.

So I changed modification of swap_cgroup's recored(swap_cgroup_record())
to use xchg, and define a new function to cmpxchg swap_cgroup's record.

This patch also enables moving charge of non pte_present but not uncharged
swap caches, which can be exist on swap-out path, by getting the target
pages via find_get_page() as do_mincore() does.

Daisuke Nishimura 7dc74be032 memcg: add interface to move charge at task migration
In current memcg, charges associated with a task aren't moved to the new
cgroup at task migration.  Some users feel this behavior to be strange.
These patches are for this feature, that is, for charging to the new
cgroup and, of course, uncharging from the old cgroup at task migration.

This patch adds "memory.move_charge_at_immigrate" file, which is a flag
file to determine whether charges should be moved to the new cgroup at
task migration or not and what type of charges should be moved.  This
patch also adds read and write handlers of the file.

This patch also adds no-op handlers for this feature.  These handlers will
be implemented in later patches.  And you cannot write any values other
than 0 to move_charge_at_immigrate yet.

Randy Dunlap b5247c854e Documentation/SubmitChecklist: add rule #1
Add header file requirements.  Compliments of Stephen Rothwell.

Stephen calls this Rule #1, so I put it there, but I didn't want to demote
any of the others in the list, so I made one of them number 2b.

Randy Dunlap 70bace8c1e Documentation/vm/: split txt and source files
Documentation/vm/:
Expose example and tool source files in the Documentation/ directory in
their own files instead of being buried (almost hidden) in readme/txt files.
This should help to prevent bitrot.

This will make them more visible/usable to users who may need
to use them, to developers who may need to test with them, and
to anyone who would fix/update them if they were more visible.

Also, if any of these possibly should not be in the kernel tree at
all, it will be clearer that they are here and we can discuss if
they should be removed.

Also build the recently-added map_hugetlb.c.
Make several functions static to prevent linker warnings.

Emese Revfy 52cf25d0ab Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type
Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing

Rafael J. Wysocki d690b2cd22 PM: Provide generic subsystem-level callbacks
There are subsystems whose power management callbacks only need to
invoke the callbacks provided by device drivers.  Still, their system
sleep PM callbacks should play well with the runtime PM callbacks,
so that devices suspended at run time can be left in that state for
a system sleep transition.

Provide a set of generic PM callbacks for such subsystems and
define convenience macros for populating dev_pm_ops structures.

Simon Kagstrom 0347af4ee3 lkdtm: add debugfs access and loosen KPROBE ties
Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to
provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here:

  http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/

Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before)
or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash.

The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not
used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs
file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki b084d4353f mm: count swap usage
A frequent questions from users about memory management is what numbers of
swap ents are user for processes.  And this information will give some
hints to oom-killer.

Besides we can count the number of swapents per a process by scanning
/proc/<pid>/smaps, this is very slow and not good for usual process
information handler which works like 'ps' or 'top'.  (ps or top is now
enough slow..)

This patch adds a counter of swapents to mm_counter and update is at each
swap events.  Information is exported via /proc/<pid>/status file as

[kamezawa@bluextal memory]$ cat /proc/self/status
Name:   cat

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 34e55232e5 mm: avoid false sharing of mm_counter
Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among
threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path.

This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter.  RSS value will be
counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at
events.

Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault.
Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls.

 rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows
 [before]
     4.5 cache-miss/faults
 [after]
     4.0 cache-miss/faults
 Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

Before switching to automatic fan control mode, make sure that all the

Jean Delvare 4f3f51bc21 hwmon: (it87) Add support for old automatic fan speed control
Add support for the automatic fan speed control interface as
implemented by IT8705F chips up to revision F and IT8712F chips up to
revision G. This implementation fits very well in our standard sysfs
interface.

I implemented the old and not the new interface because the only chip
I have at hand is an old one, and the new interface is more difficult
to map to the standard sysfs interface. Adding support later should be
possible though, if someone with a supported chip is interested.

Jean Delvare 53de33427f hwmon: (lm90) Add SMBus alert support
Tested successfully with an ADM1032 chip on its evaluation board. It
should work fine with all other chips as well.

At this point this is more of a proof-of-concept, we don't do anything
terribly useful on SMBus alert: we simply log the event. But this could
later evolve into libsensors signaling so that user-space applications
can take an appropriate action.
