Pull x86 cpu-feature updates from Ingo Molnar: - Rework the Intel model names symbols/macros, which were decades of ad-hoc extensions and added random noise. It's now a coherent, easy to follow nomenclature. - Add new Intel CPU model IDs: - "Tiger Lake" desktop and mobile models - "Elkhart Lake" model ID - and the "Lightning Mountain" variant of Airmont, plus support code - Add the new AVX512_VP2INTERSECT instruction to cpufeatures - Remove Intel MPX user-visible APIs and the self-tests, because the toolchain (gcc) is not supporting it going forward. This is the first, lowest-risk phase of MPX removal. - Remove X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC - Various smaller cleanups and fixes * 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (25 commits) x86/cpu: Update init data for new Airmont CPU model x86/cpu: Add new Airmont variant to Intel family x86/cpu: Add Elkhart Lake to Intel family x86/cpu: Add Tiger Lake to Intel family x86: Correct misc typos x86/intel: Add common OPTDIFFs x86/intel: Aggregate microserver naming x86/intel: Aggregate big core graphics naming x86/intel: Aggregate big core mobile naming x86/intel: Aggregate big core client naming x86/cpufeature: Explain the macro duplication x86/ftrace: Remove mcount() declaration x86/PCI: Remove superfluous returns from void functions x86/msr-index: Move AMD MSRs where they belong x86/cpu: Use constant definitions for CPU models lib: Remove redundant ftrace flag removal x86/crash: Remove unnecessary comparison x86/bitops: Use __builtin_constant_p() directly instead of IS_IMMEDIATE() x86: Remove X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC x86/mpx: Remove MPX APIs ...

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: - MAINTAINERS: Add Mark Rutland as perf submaintainer, Juri Lelli and Vincent Guittot as scheduler submaintainers. Add Dietmar Eggemann, Steven Rostedt, Ben Segall and Mel Gorman as scheduler reviewers. As perf and the scheduler is getting bigger and more complex, document the status quo of current responsibilities and interests, and spread the review pain^H^H^H^H fun via an increase in the Cc: linecount generated by scripts/get_maintainer.pl. :-) - Add another series of patches that brings the -rt (PREEMPT_RT) tree closer to mainline: split the monolithic CONFIG_PREEMPT dependencies into a new CONFIG_PREEMPTION category that will allow the eventual introduction of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Still a few more hundred patches to go though. - Extend the CPU cgroup controller with uclamp.min and uclamp.max to allow the finer shaping of CPU bandwidth usage. - Micro-optimize energy-aware wake-ups from O(CPUS^2) to O(CPUS). - Improve the behavior of high CPU count, high thread count applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints. - Improve balancing with SCHED_IDLE (SCHED_BATCH) tasks present. - Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality. - Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's being offlined. - Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization. Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken before. - Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more optimal. - Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath. - Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems. - ... and misc cleanups, smaller fixes and improvements - please see the Git log for more details. * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (53 commits) sched/psi: Correct overly pessimistic size calculation sched/fair: Speed-up energy-aware wake-ups sched/uclamp: Always use 'enum uclamp_id' for clamp_id values sched/uclamp: Update CPU's refcount on TG's clamp changes sched/uclamp: Use TG's clamps to restrict TASK's clamps sched/uclamp: Propagate system defaults to the root group sched/uclamp: Propagate parent clamps sched/uclamp: Extend CPU's cgroup controller sched/topology: Improve load balancing on AMD EPYC systems arch, ia64: Make NUMA select SMP sched, perf: MAINTAINERS update, add submaintainers and reviewers sched/fair: Use rq_lock/unlock in online_fair_sched_group cpufreq: schedutil: fix equation in comment sched: Rework pick_next_task() slow-path sched: Allow put_prev_task() to drop rq->lock sched/fair: Expose newidle_balance() sched: Add task_struct pointer to sched_class::set_curr_task sched: Rework CPU hotplug task selection sched/{rt,deadline}: Fix set_next_task vs pick_next_task sched: Fix kerneldoc comment for ia64_set_curr_task ...

Pull ARM DT updates from Arnd Bergmann: "This is another huge branch with close to 450 changessets related to devicetree files, roughly half of this for 32-bit and 64-bit respectively. There are lots of cleanups and additional hardware support for platforms we already support based on SoCs from Renesas, ST-Microelectronics, Intel/Altera, Rockchips, Allwinner, Broadcom and other manufacturers. A total of 6 new SoCs and 37 new boards gets added this time, one more SoC will come in a follow-up branch. Most of the new boards are for 64-bit ARM SoCs, the others are typically for the 32-bit Cortex-A7. Going more into details for SoC platforms with new hardware support: - The Snapdragon 855 (SM8150) is Qualcomm's current high-end phone platform, usually paired with an external 5G modem. So far we only support the Qualcomm SM8150 MTP reference platform, but no actual products. - For the slightly older Qualcomm platforms, support for several interesting products is getting added: Three laptops based on Snapdragon 835/MSM8998 (Asus NovaGo, HP Envy X2 and Lenovo Miix 630), one laptop based on Snapdragon 850/sdm850 (Lenovo Yoga C630) and several phones based on the older Snapdragon 410/MSM8916 (Samsung A3 and A5, Longcheer L8150 aka Android One 2nd gen "seed" aka Wileyfox Swift). - Mediatek MT7629 is a new wireless network router chip, similar to the older MT7623. It gets added together with the reference board implementation. - Allwinner V3 is a repackaged version of the existing low-end V3s chip, and is used in the tiny Lichee Pi Zero plus, also added here. There is also a new TV set-top box based on Allwinner H6, the Tanix TX6, and the eMMC variant of the Olimex A64-Olinuxino development board. - NXP i.MX8M Nano is a new member of the ever-expanding i.MX SoC family, similar to the i.MX8M Mini. As usual, there is a large number of new boards for i.MX SoCs: Einfochips i.MX8QXP AI_ML, SolidRun Hummingboard Pulse baseboard and System-on-Module, Boundary Devices i.MX8MQ Nitrogen8M, and TechNexion PICO-PI-IMX8M-DEV for the 64-bit i.MX8 line. For 32-bit, we get the Kontron i.MX6UL N6310 SoM with two baseboards, the PHYTEC phyBOARD-Segin SoM with three baseboards, and the Zodiac Inflight Innovations i.MX7 RMU2 board. - In a different NXP product line, the Layerscape LS1046A "Freeway" reference board gets added. - Amlogic SM1 (S905X3) and G12B (S922X, A311D) are updated chips from their set-top-box line and smart speaker with newer CPU and GPU cores compared to their predecessors. Both are now also supported by the Khadas VIM3 development board series, and the dts files for that get reorganized a bit to better deal with all variants. Another board based on SM1 that gets added is the SEI Robotics SEI610. - There are a handful of new x86 and Power9 server boards using Aspeed BMC chips that are gaining support for running Linux on the BMC through the OpenBMC project: Facebook Minipack/Wedge100/Wedge40, Lenovo Hr855xg2, and Mihawk. Notably these are still new machines using SoCs based on the ARM9 and ARM11 CPU cores, as support for the new Cortex-A7 based AST2600 is still ramping up. - There are three new end-user products using 32-bit Rockchips SoCs: Mecer Xtreme Mini S6 is an Android "mini PC" box based on the low-end RK3229 chip, while the two AOpen products Chromebox Mini (Fievel) and Chromebase Mini (Tiger) run ChromeOS and are meant for commercial settings(digital signage, PoS, ...). - One more single-board computer based on the popular 64-bit RK3399 is added: the Leez RK3399 P710" * tag 'armsoc-dt' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc: (467 commits) arm64: dts: qcom: Add Lenovo Yoga C630 ARM: dts: aspeed-g5: Fixe gpio-ranges upper limit ARM; dts: aspeed: mihawk: File should not be executable ARM: dts: aspeed: swift: Change power supplies to version 2 ARM: dts: aspeed: vesnin: Add secondary SPI flash chip ARM: dts: aspeed: vesnin: Add wdt2 with alt-boot option ARM: dts: aspeed-g4: Add all flash chips ARM: dts: exynos: Enable GPU/Mali T604 on Arndale board ARM: dts: exynos: Enable GPU/Mali T604 on Chromebook Snow ARM: dts: exynos: Add GPU/Mali T604 node to Exynos5250 ARM: dts: exynos: Fix min/max buck4 for GPU on Arndale board ARM: dts: exynos: Mark LDO10 as always-on on Peach Pit/Pi Chromebooks ARM: dts: exynos: Remove not accurate secondary ADC compatible arm64: dts: rockchip: limit clock rate of MMC controllers for RK3328 arm64: dts: meson-sm1-sei610: add stdout-path property back arm64: dts: meson-sm1-sei610: enable DVFS arm64: dts: khadas-vim3: add support for the SM1 based VIM3L dt-bindings: arm: amlogic: add Amlogic SM1 based Khadas VIM3L bindings arm64: dts: khadas-vim3: move common nodes into meson-khadas-vim3.dtsi arm64: dts: meson: g12a: add reset to tdm formatters ...

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann: "This contains driver changes that are tightly connected to SoC specific code. Aside from smaller cleanups and bug fixes, here is a list of the notable changes. New device drivers: - The Turris Mox router has a new "moxtet" bus driver for its on-board pluggable extension bus. The same platform also gains a firmware driver. - The Samsung Exynos family gains a new Chipid driver exporting using the soc device sysfs interface - A similar socinfo driver for Qualcomm Snapdragon chips. - A firmware driver for the NXP i.MX DSP IPC protocol using shared memory and a mailbox Other changes: - The i.MX reset controller driver now supports the NXP i.MX8MM chip - Amlogic SoC specific drivers gain support for the S905X3 and A311D chips - A rework of the TI Davinci framebuffer driver to allow important cleanups in the platform code - A couple of device drivers for removed ARM SoC platforms are removed.

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann: "The main change this time around is a cleanup of some of the oldest platforms based on the XScale and ARM9 CPU cores, which are between 10 and 20 years old. The Kendin/Micrel/Microchip KS8695, Winbond/Nuvoton W90x900 and Intel IOP33x/IOP13xx platforms are removed after we determined that nobody is using them any more. The TI Davinci and NXP LPC32xx platforms on the other hand are still in active use and are converted to the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM build, meaning that we can compile a kernel that works on these along with most other ARMv5 platforms. Changes toward that goal are also merged for IOP32x, but additional work is needed to complete this. Patches for the remaining ARMv5 platforms have started but need more work and some testing. Support for the new ASpeed AST2600 gets added, this is based on the Cortex-A7 ARMv7 core, and is a newer version of the existing ARMv5 and ARMv6 chips in the same family. Other changes include a cleanup of the ST-Ericsson ux500 platform and the move of the TI Davinci platform to a new clocksource driver" [ The changes had marked INTEL_IOP_ADMA and USB_LPC32XX as being buildable on other platforms through COMPILE_TEST, but that causes new warnings that I most definitely do not want to see during the merge window as that could hide other issues. So the COMPILE_TEST option got disabled for them again - Linus ] * tag 'armsoc-soc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc: (61 commits) ARM: multi_v5_defconfig: make DaVinci part of the ARM v5 multiplatform build ARM: davinci: support multiplatform build for ARM v5 arm64: exynos: Enable exynos-chipid driver ARM: OMAP2+: Delete an unnecessary kfree() call in omap_hsmmc_pdata_init() ARM: OMAP2+: move platform-specific asm-offset.h to arch/arm/mach-omap2 ARM: davinci: dm646x: Fix a typo in the comment ARM: davinci: dm646x: switch to using the clocksource driver ARM: davinci: dm644x: switch to using the clocksource driver ARM: aspeed: Enable SMP boot ARM: aspeed: Add ASPEED AST2600 architecture ARM: aspeed: Select timer in each SoC dt-bindings: arm: cpus: Add ASPEED SMP ARM: imx: stop adjusting ar8031 phy tx delay mailmap: map old company name to new one @microchip.com MAINTAINERS: at91: remove the TC entry MAINTAINERS: at91: Collect all pinctrl/gpio drivers in same entry ARM: at91: move platform-specific asm-offset.h to arch/arm/mach-at91 MAINTAINERS: Extend patterns for Samsung SoC, Security Subsystem and clock drivers ARM: s3c64xx: squash samsung_usb_phy.h into setup-usb-phy.c ARM: debug-ll: Add support for r7s9210 ...

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon: "Although there isn't tonnes of code in terms of line count, there are a fair few headline features which I've noted both in the tag and also in the merge commits when I pulled everything together. The part I'm most pleased with is that we had 35 contributors this time around, which feels like a big jump from the usual small group of core arm64 arch developers. Hopefully they all enjoyed it so much that they'll continue to contribute, but we'll see. It's probably worth highlighting that we've pulled in a branch from the risc-v folks which moves our CPU topology code out to where it can be shared with others. Summary: - 52-bit virtual addressing in the kernel - New ABI to allow tagged user pointers to be dereferenced by syscalls - Early RNG seeding by the bootloader - Improve robustness of SMP boot - Fix TLB invalidation in light of recent architectural clarifications - Support for i.MX8 DDR PMU - Remove direct LSE instruction patching in favour of static keys - Function error injection using kprobes - Support for the PPTT "thread" flag introduced by ACPI 6.3 - Move PSCI idle code into proper cpuidle driver - Relaxation of implicit I/O memory barriers - Build with RELR relocations when toolchain supports them - Numerous cleanups and non-critical fixes" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (114 commits) arm64: remove __iounmap arm64: atomics: Use K constraint when toolchain appears to support it arm64: atomics: Undefine internal macros after use arm64: lse: Make ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS depend on JUMP_LABEL arm64: asm: Kill 'asm/atomic_arch.h' arm64: lse: Remove unused 'alt_lse' assembly macro arm64: atomics: Remove atomic_ll_sc compilation unit arm64: avoid using hard-coded registers for LSE atomics arm64: atomics: avoid out-of-line ll/sc atomics arm64: Use correct ll/sc atomic constraints jump_label: Don't warn on __exit jump entries docs/perf: Add documentation for the i.MX8 DDR PMU perf/imx_ddr: Add support for AXI ID filtering arm64: kpti: ensure patched kernel text is fetched from PoU arm64: fix fixmap copy for 16K pages and 48-bit VA perf/smmuv3: Validate groups for global filtering perf/smmuv3: Validate group size arm64: Relax Documentation/arm64/tagged-pointers.rst arm64: kvm: Replace hardcoded '1' with SYS_PAR_EL1_F arm64: mm: Ignore spurious translation faults taken from the kernel ...

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of changes in the GPIO subsystem for the v5.4 kernel cycle. Core changes: - Support hierarchical GPIO irqchips. We now have three consumers that can use this: Intel IXP4xx, ThunderX and Qualcomm SPMI GPIO (in the pinctrl subsystem). The support code has been long in the making and hashed out so it should be easily adaptable for all hierarchical irqchip parents. The code only gets compiled in if hierarchical irqchip is used at the topmost irq controller at least, as the hierarchical irqchip requires strict hierarchy all the way up in the system. - Determine the need for a "valid_mask" for GPIO lines on the gpio_chip and conversely for the "valid_mask" for the GPIO interrupt chip interrupt lines by looking for a .init_valid_mask() callback in the main chip or GPIO interrupt chip respectively. Allocate it with bitmap_alloc(). - Isolate the device tree/open firmware GPIO description code out in its own file properly. - Isolate the ACPI GPIO description code out in its own file properly. - Drop a whole lot of #ifdef:s in the main includes: it does not hurt to keep the include items around, and we get quicker and clearer compile failures if the appropriate kernel symbols are not selected for drivers. New/deleted drivers: - New driver for Aspeed SGPIO. - The KS8695 driver is deleted as the platform gets deleted from arch/arm in this kernel cycle. - The Cirrus Logic Madera driver now supports CS47L92 and CS47L15. - The Freescale MPC8xxx now supports LS1028A and LS1088A. Driver improvements: - We pass the GPIO irqchip intialization by directly filling in the struct instead of using set-up functions (the new way) for Intel MID, Lynxpoint, Merrifield, XLP, HLWD, Aspeed, ZX, VF610, TQMX86, MT7621, Zynq and EP93xx.

Pull pidfd/waitid updates from Christian Brauner: "This contains two features and various tests. First, it adds support for waiting on process through pidfds by adding the P_PIDFD type to the waitid() syscall. This completes the basic functionality of the pidfd api (cf. [1]). In the meantime we also have a new adition to the userspace projects that make use of the pidfd api. The qt project was nice enough to send a mail pointing out that they have a pr up to switch to the pidfd api (cf. [2]). Second, this tag contains an extension to the waitid() syscall to make it possible to wait on the current process group in a race free manner (even though the actual problem is very unlikely) by specifing 0 together with the P_PGID type. This extension traces back to a discussion on the glibc development mailing list. There are also a range of tests for the features above.

This reverts commit b03755ad. This is sad, and done for all the wrong reasons. Because that commit is good, and does exactly what it says: avoids a lot of small disk requests for the inode table read-ahead. However, it turns out that it causes an entirely unrelated problem: the getrandom() system call was introduced back in 2014 by commit c6e9d6f3 ("random: introduce getrandom(2) system call"), and people use it as a convenient source of good random numbers. But part of the current semantics for getrandom() is that it waits for the entropy pool to fill at least partially (unlike /dev/urandom). And at least ArchLinux apparently has a systemd that uses getrandom() at boot time, and the improvements in IO patterns means that existing installations suddenly start hanging, waiting for entropy that will never happen. It seems to be an unlucky combination of not _quite_ enough entropy, together with a particular systemd version and configuration. Lennart says that the systemd-random-seed process (which is what does this early access) is supposed to not block any other boot activity, but sadly that doesn't actually seem to be the case (possibly due bogus dependencies on cryptsetup for encrypted swapspace). The correct fix is to fix getrandom() to not block when it's not appropriate, but that fix is going to take a lot more discussion. Do we just make it act like /dev/urandom by default, and add a new flag for "wait for entropy"? Do we add a boot-time option? Or do we just limit the amount of time it will wait for entropy? So in the meantime, we do the revert to give us time to discuss the eventual fix for the fundamental problem, at which point we can re-apply the ext4 inode table access optimization.

Pull RISC-V fix from Paul Walmsley: "Last week, Palmer and I learned that there was an error in the RISC-V kernel image header format that could make it less compatible with the ARM64 kernel image header format. I had missed this error during my original reviews of the patch. The kernel image header format is an interface that impacts bootloaders, QEMU, and other user tools. Those packages must be updated to align with whatever is merged in the kernel. We would like to avoid proliferating these image formats by keeping the RISC-V header as close as possible to the existing ARM64 header. Since the arch/riscv patch that adds support for the image header was merged with our v5.3-rc1 pull request as commit 0f327f2a ("RISC-V: Add an Image header that boot loader can parse."), we think it wise to try to fix this error before v5.3 is released. The fix itself should be backwards-compatible with any project that has already merged support for premature versions of this interface. It primarily involves ensuring that the RISC-V image header has something useful in the same field as the ARM64 image header" * tag 'riscv/for-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux: riscv: modify the Image header to improve compatibility with the ARM64 header
