      iommu/amd: fix a crash in iova_magazine_free_pfns · 8cf66504
      Qian Cai authored
      The commit b3aa14f0 ("iommu: remove the mapping_error dma_map_ops
      method") incorrectly changed the checking from dma_ops_alloc_iova() in
      map_sg() causes a crash under memory pressure as dma_ops_alloc_iova()
      never return DMA_MAPPING_ERROR on failure but 0, so the error handling
      is all wrong.

      dt-bindings: riscv: Limit cpus schema to only check RiscV 'cpu' nodes · 7d9ef7f3
      Rob Herring authored
      Matching on the 'cpus' node was a bad choice because the schema is
      incorrectly applied to non-RiscV cpus nodes. As we now have a common cpus
      schema which checks the general structure, it is also redundant to do so
      in the Risc-V CPU schema.
      
      The downside is one could conceivably mix different architecture's cpu
      nodes or have typos in the compatible string. The latter problem pretty
      much exists for every schema.

      dt-bindings: Ensure child nodes are of type 'object' · 15ffef1a

      Properties which are child node definitions need to have an explict
      type. Otherwise, a matching (DT) property can silently match when an
      error is desired. Fix this up tree-wide. Once this is fixed, the
      meta-schema will enforce this on any child node definitions.

       "A set of perf improvements and fixes:
      
        perf db-export:
         - Improvements in how COMM details are exported to databases for post
           processing and use in the sql-viewer.py UI.
      
         - Export switch events to the database.
      
        BPF:
         - Bump rlimit(MEMLOCK) for 'perf test bpf' and 'perf trace', just
           like selftests/bpf/bpf_rlimit.h do, which makes errors due to
           exhaustion of this limit, which are kinda cryptic (EPERM sometimes)
           less frequent.
      
        perf version:
         - Fix segfault due to missing OPT_END(), noticed on PowerPC.
      
        perf vendor events:
         - Add JSON files for IBM s/390 machine type 8561.
      
        perf cs-etm (ARM):
         - Fix two cases of error returns not bing done properly: Invalid
           ERR_PTR() use and loss of propagation error codes"

      Pull CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT stub config from Thomas Gleixner:
       "The real-time preemption patch set exists for almost 15 years now and
        while the vast majority of infrastructure and enhancements have found
        their way into the mainline kernel, the final integration of RT is
        still missing.
      
        Over the course of the last few years, we have worked on reducing the
        intrusivenness of the RT patches by refactoring kernel infrastructure
        to be more real-time friendly. Almost all of these changes were
        benefitial to the mainline kernel on their own, so there was no
        objection to integrate them.
      
        Though except for the still ongoing printk refactoring, the remaining
        changes which are required to make RT a first class mainline citizen
        are not longer arguable as immediately beneficial for the mainline
        kernel. Most of them are either reordering code flows or adding RT
        specific functionality.
      
        But this now has hit a wall and turned into a classic hen and egg
        problem:
      
           Maintainers are rightfully wary vs. these changes as they make only
           sense if the final integration of RT into the mainline kernel takes
           place.
      
        Adding CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT aims to solve this as a clear sign that RT
        will be fully integrated into the mainline kernel. The final
        integration of the missing bits and pieces will be of course done with
        the same careful approach as we have used in the past.
      
        While I'm aware that you are not entirely enthusiastic about that, I
        think that RT should receive the same treatment as any other widely
        used out of tree functionality, which we have accepted into mainline
        over the years.
      
        RT has become the de-facto standard real-time enhancement and is
        shipped by enterprise, embedded and community distros. It's in use
        throughout a wide range of industries: telecommunications, industrial
        automation, professional audio, medical devices, data acquisition,
        automotive - just to name a few major use cases.
      
        RT development is backed by a Linuxfoundation project which is
        supported by major stakeholders of this technology. The funding will
        continue over the actual inclusion into mainline to make sure that the
        functionality is neither introducing regressions, regressing itself,
        nor becomes subject to bitrot. There is also a lifely user community
        around RT as well, so contrary to the grim situation 5 years ago, it's
        a healthy project.
      
        As RT is still a good vehicle to exercise rarely used code paths and
        to detect hard to trigger issues, you could at least view it as a QA
        tool if nothing else"
