Mike Galbraith reported: " My i7-4790 box is having one hell of a time with this merge window, dead in the water. BIOS setting "Limit CPUID Maximum" upsets new fpu code mightily. " It turns out that Linux does a double workaround here, as per: 066941bd ("x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs") it undoes the BIOS workaround - but as a side effect the CPUID state is not completely constant during early init anymore, and the new FPU init code did not take this into account. So what happened is that the xstate init code did not have full CPUID available, which broke subsequent attempts to use xstate features. Fix this by ordering the early FPU init code to after we've stabilized the CPUID state.

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar: "There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat - so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request, collected into the 'x86/core' topic. The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good - but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the end. The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will have fewer dependencies). The main changes in this cycle were: * x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas Gleixner) - This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86 interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt domains: [IOAPIC domain] ----- | [MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ] | (optional) | [HPET MSI domain] ----- | | [DMAR domain] ----------------------------- | [Legacy domain] ----------------------------- This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet and the vector management. - Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt injection into guests (Feng Wu) * x86/asm changes: - Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski, Brian Gerst) - Moved all system entry related code to a new home under arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar) - Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations. Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does not rely on them (Ingo Molnar) - NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov) * x86/mm changes: - Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers - in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov) - New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani) * x86/ras changes: - Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan) This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as far as possible. - Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system- wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj) - Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov) * x86/platform changes: - Intel Atom SoC updates ... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the shortlog and the Git log for details" * 'x86-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (222 commits) x86/hpet: Use proper hpet device number for MSI allocation x86/hpet: Check for irq==0 when allocating hpet MSI interrupts x86/mm/pat, drivers/infiniband/ipath: Use arch_phys_wc_add() and require PAT disabled x86/mm/pat, drivers/media/ivtv: Use arch_phys_wc_add() and require PAT disabled x86/platform/intel/baytrail: Add comments about why we disabled HPET on Baytrail genirq: Prevent crash in irq_move_irq() genirq: Enhance irq_data_to_desc() to support hierarchy irqdomain iommu, x86: Properly handle posted interrupts for IOMMU hotplug iommu, x86: Provide irq_remapping_cap() interface iommu, x86: Setup Posted-Interrupts capability for Intel iommu iommu, x86: Add cap_pi_support() to detect VT-d PI capability iommu, x86: Avoid migrating VT-d posted interrupts iommu, x86: Save the mode (posted or remapped) of an IRTE iommu, x86: Implement irq_set_vcpu_affinity for intel_ir_chip iommu: dmar: Provide helper to copy shared irte fields iommu: dmar: Extend struct irte for VT-d Posted-Interrupts iommu: Add new member capability to struct irq_remap_ops x86/asm/entry/64: Disentangle error_entry/exit gsbase/ebx/usermode code x86/asm/entry/32: Shorten __audit_syscall_entry() args preparation x86/asm/entry/32: Explain reloading of registers after __audit_syscall_entry() ...

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar: "This tree contains two main changes: - The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in arch/x86/fpu/. The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to understand. This enables future work to further simplify the FPU code (such as removing lazy FPU restores). By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track back to kernel side backs. I'm aware of no unfixed (or even suspected) FPU related regression so far. - MPX support rework/fixes. As this is still not a released CPU feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more robust now (Dave Hansen)" * 'x86-fpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (250 commits) x86/fpu: Fix double-increment in setup_xstate_features() x86/mpx: Allow 32-bit binaries on 64-bit kernels again x86/mpx: Do not count MPX VMAs as neighbors when unmapping x86/mpx: Rewrite the unmap code x86/mpx: Support 32-bit binaries on 64-bit kernels x86/mpx: Use 32-bit-only cmpxchg() for 32-bit apps x86/mpx: Introduce new 'directory entry' to 'addr' helper function x86/mpx: Add temporary variable to reduce masking x86: Make is_64bit_mm() widely available x86/mpx: Trace allocation of new bounds tables x86/mpx: Trace the attempts to find bounds tables x86/mpx: Trace entry to bounds exception paths x86/mpx: Trace #BR exceptions x86/mpx: Introduce a boot-time disable flag x86/mpx: Restrict the mmap() size check to bounds tables x86/mpx: Remove redundant MPX_BNDCFG_ADDR_MASK x86/mpx: Clean up the code by not passing a task pointer around when unnecessary x86/mpx: Use the new get_xsave_field_ptr()API x86/fpu/xstate: Wrap get_xsave_addr() to make it safer x86/fpu/xstate: Fix up bad get_xsave_addr() assumptions ...

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro: "In this pile: pathname resolution rewrite. - recursion in link_path_walk() is gone. - nesting limits on symlinks are gone (the only limit remaining is that the total amount of symlinks is no more than 40, no matter how nested). - "fast" (inline) symlinks are handled without leaving rcuwalk mode. - stack footprint (independent of the nesting) is below kilobyte now, about on par with what it used to be with one level of nested symlinks and ~2.8 times lower than it used to be in the worst case. - struct nameidata is entirely private to fs/namei.c now (not even opaque pointers are being passed around). - ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventions had been changed; all in-tree filesystems converted, out-of-tree should be able to follow reasonably easily.

hpet_assign_irq() is called with hpet_device->num as "hardware interrupt number", but hpet_device->num is initialized after the interrupt has been assigned, so it's always 0. As a consequence only the first MSI allocation succeeds, the following ones fail because the "hardware interrupt number" already exists. Move the initialization of dev->num and other fields before the call to hpet_assign_irq(), which is the ordering before the offending commit which introduced that regression.

If an interrupt is marked with the no balancing flag, we still allow setting the affinity for such an interrupt from the kernel itself, but for interrupts which move the affinity from interrupt context via irq_move_mask_irq() this runs into a check for the no balancing flag, which in turn ends up with an endless storm of stack dumps because the move pending flag is not reset. Allow the move for interrupts which have the no balancing flag set and clear the move pending bit before checking for interrupts with the per cpu flag set.

System wide sampling like 'perf top' or 'perf record -a' read all threads /proc/xxx/maps before sampling. If there are any threads which generating a keeping growing huge maps, perf will do infinite loop during synthesizing. Nothing will be sampled. This patch fixes this issue by adding per-thread timeout to force stop this kind of endless proc map processing. PERF_RECORD_MISC_PROC_MAP_PARSE_TIME_OUT is introduced to indicate that the mmap record are truncated by time out. User will get warning notification when truncated mmap records are detected.

When using a map file from a JIT, due to memory reuse, we can obtain multiple symbols with the same start address but a different length. The symbols__find does check for the end so not doing it in sort__sym_cmp was causing the hist_entry in the annotate part of a report to match to the wrong entry, causing a fatal error.

The 'f' hotkey is only used when in 'top', dynamic mode, to enable/disable events, currently not making sense in the 'report', static mode, where we can't go from showing the histogram entries created from a perf.data file to adding more events after recreating the evlist created from the perf.data file, albeit possible, this is not implemented right now.
