      powerpc: Emulate non privileged DSCR read and write · 73d2fb75
      Anton Blanchard authored
      POWER8 allows read and write of the DSCR in userspace. We added
      kernel emulation so applications could always use the instructions
      regardless of the CPU type.
      
      Unfortunately there are two SPRs for the DSCR and we only added
      emulation for the privileged one. Add code to match the non
      privileged one.
      
      A simple test was created to verify the fix:
      
      http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/user_dscr_test.c
      
      Without the patch we get a SIGILL and it passes with the patch.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull 'full dynticks' support from Ingo Molnar:
       "This tree from Frederic Weisbecker adds a new, (exciting! :-) core
        kernel feature to the timer and scheduler subsystems: 'full dynticks',
        or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.
      
        This feature extends the nohz variable-size timer tick feature from
        idle to busy CPUs (running at most one task) as well, potentially
        reducing the number of timer interrupts significantly.
      
        This feature got motivated by real-time folks and the -rt tree, but
        the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than
        that:
      
         - HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able
           to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power.  A periodic timer tick at
           HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%.  This feature
           removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on
           typical distro configs even on modern systems.
      
         - Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks
           should experience as little jitter as possible.  The last remaining
           source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick.
      
         - A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation,
           especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature
           helps desktop and mobile workloads as well.
      
        The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer
        reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus
        slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency.
      
        Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing
        two NOHZ kconfig modes:
      
         - CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named
           as a config option.  This is the traditional Linux periodic tick
           design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of
           whether a CPU is idle or not.
      
         - CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the
           periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode.
      
         - CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the
           tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one
           timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a
           CPU.
      
        The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and
        CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the
        user having to configure anything.  CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by
        default.
      
        This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been
        steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support
        and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already.
      
        This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature.  The pull
        request is marked RFC because:
      
         - it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is
           small but did not get ready in time.
      
         - it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge
           window.  The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the
           merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I
           marked it RFC.
      
         - it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and
           while the components have been in testing for some time, the full
           combination is still not very widely used.  That it's default-off
           should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no
           known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either.
      
         - the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100%
           equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick.  In
           particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects
           on scheduler load-balancing and statistics.  This should not impact
           correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this
           feature at this point.
      
         - it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be
           enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on
           its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed.
           Without flaming us to crisp! :-)
      
        Future plans:
      
         - there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off
           the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a
           CPU.  We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go
           for the 0 Hz target though.
      
         - once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from
           nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only
           as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do -
           once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running.
      
        I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in
        v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long -
        but the final word is up to you as usual.

       "A bunch of fixes for a moderately common class of bugs: file with

        That leaks; fortunately, it's not _too_ common (either people manage
        to RTFM that says "When using single_open(), the programmer should use
        single_release() instead of seq_release() in the file_operations
        structure to avoid a memory leak", or they just copy a correct
        instance), but grepping through the tree has caught quite a pile.
      
        All of that is, AFAICS, -stable fodder, for as far as the patches
        apply.  I tried to carve it up into reasonably-sized pieces (more or
        less "comes from the same tree")"

      Merge ipc fixes and cleanups from my IPC branch.
      
      The ipc locking has always been pretty ugly, and the scalability fixes
      to some degree made it even less readable.  We had two cases of double
      unlocks in error paths due to this (one rcu read unlock, one semaphore
      unlock), and this fixes the bugs I found while trying to clean things up
      a bit so that we are less likely to have more.

      sparc32, leon: Do not overwrite previously set irq flow handlers · 6e4741e7
      Andreas Larsson authored
      This is needed because when scan_of_devices finds the GAISLER_GPTIMER
      core that corresponds to the SMP "ticker" timer, the previously set
      proper irq flow handler gets overwritten with an incorrect one. This
      leads to very flaky timer interrupt handling on some hardware. Proper
      updates to handlers can still be done using leon_update_virq_handling.

      This trivially combines two rcu_read_lock() calls in both sides of a

      ipc: simplify semtimedop/semctl_main() common error path handling · c728b9c8
      Linus Torvalds authored
      With various straight RCU lock/unlock movements, one common exit path
      pattern had become
      
      	rcu_read_unlock();
      	goto out_wakeup;
      
      and in fact there were no cases where we wanted to exit to out_wakeup
      _without_ releasing the RCU read lock.
      
      So replace that pattern with "goto out_rcu_wakeup", and remove the old
      out_wakeup.

      ipc: move sem_obtain_lock() rcu locking into the only caller · 321310ce
      Linus Torvalds authored
      sem_obtain_lock() was another of those functions that returned with the
      RCU lock held for reading in the success case.  Move the RCU locking to
      the caller (semtimedop()), making it more obvious.  We already did RCU
      locking elsewhere in that function.
      
      Side note: why does semtimedop() re-do the semphore lookup after the
      sleep, rather than just getting a reference to the semaphore it already
      looked up originally?

      Fix another ipc locking buglet introduced by the scalability patches:
      when semctl_down() was changed to delay the semaphore locking, one error
      path for security_sem_semctl() went through the semaphore unlock logic
      even though the semaphore had never been locked.

      ipc: move the rcu_read_lock() from sem_lock_and_putref() into callers · 4091fd94
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This is another ipc semaphore locking cleanup, trying to make the
      locking more straightforward.  We move the rcu read locking into the
      callers of sem_lock_and_putref(), which in general means that we now
      mostly do the rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() in the same
      function.
      
      Mostly.  We still have the ipc_addid/newary/freeary mess, and things
      like ipcctl_pre_down_nolock().

           slowly; we were missing card removal events if the card retained
           contact with the slot pads for long enough to reply to a CMD13
