Pull arm fixes fixes from Russell King: "This fixes a couple of problems with commit 48be69a0 ("ARM: move signal handlers into a vdso-like page"), one of which was originally discovered via my testing originally, but the fix for it was never actually committed. The other shows up on noMMU builds, and such platforms are extremely rare and as such are not part of my nightly testing" * 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm: ARM: fix nommu builds with 48be69a0 (ARM: move signal handlers into a vdso-like page) ARM: fix a cockup in 48be69a0 (ARM: move signal handlers into a vdso-like page)

Olof reports that noMMU builds error out with: arch/arm/kernel/signal.c: In function 'setup_return': arch/arm/kernel/signal.c:413:25: error: 'mm_context_t' has no member named 'sigpage' This shows one of the evilnesses of IS_ENABLED(). Get rid of it here and replace it with #ifdef's - and as no noMMU platform can make use of sigpage, depend on CONIFG_MMU not CONFIG_ARM_MPU.

Unfortunately, I never committed the fix to a nasty oops which can occur as a result of that commit: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at /home/olof/work/batch/include/linux/mm.h:414! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 490 Comm: killall5 Not tainted 3.11.0-rc3-00288-gabe03080 #53 task: e90acac0 ti: e9be8000 task.ti: e9be8000 PC is at special_mapping_fault+0xa4/0xc4 LR is at __do_fault+0x68/0x48c This doesn't show up unless you do quite a bit of testing; a simple boot test does not do this, so all my nightly tests were passing fine. The reason for this is that install_special_mapping() expects the page array to stick around, and as this was only inserting one page which was stored on the kernel stack, that's why this was blowing up.

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: - Revert two cpuidle commits added during the 3.8 development cycle that turn out to have introduced a significant performance regression as requested by Jeremy Eder. - The recent patches that made the freezer less heavy-weight introduced a regression causing user-space-driven hibernation using the ioctl() interface to block indefinitely when the hibernate process executes try_to_freeze(). Fix from Colin Cross addresses this by adding a process flag to mark the hibernate/suspend process to inform the freezer that that process should be ignored. - One of the recent cpufreq reverts uncovered a problem in the core causing the cpufreq driver module refcount to become negative after a system suspend-resume cycle. Fix from Rafael J Wysocki. - The evaluation of the ACPI battery _BIX method has never worked correctly, because the commit that added support for it forgot to take the "Revision" field in the return package into account. As a result, the reading of battery info doesn't work at all on some systems, which is addressed by a fix from Lan Tianyu. * tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: freezer: set PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag on tasks that call freeze_processes ACPI / battery: Fix parsing _BIX return value cpufreq: Fix cpufreq driver module refcount balance after suspend/resume Revert "cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for repeat mode" Revert "cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure in general case"

The Marvell PCIe driver uses an emulated PCI-to-PCI bridge to be able to dynamically set up MBus address decoding windows for PCI I/O and memory regions depending on the PCI devices enumerated by Linux. However, this emulated PCI-to-PCI bridge logic makes the Linux PCI core believe that prefetchable memory regions are supported (because the registers are read/write), while in fact no adress decoding window is ever created for such regions. Since the Marvell MBus address decoding windows do not distinguish memory regions and prefetchable memory regions, this patch takes a simple approach: change the PCI-to-PCI bridge emulation to let the Linux PCI core know that we don't support prefetchable memory regions. To achieve this, we simply make the prefetchable memory base a read-only register that always returns 0. Reading/writing all the other prefetchable memory related registers has no effect. This problem was originally reported by Finn Hoffmann <finn@uni-bremen.de>, who couldn't get a RTL8111/8168B PCI NIC working on the NSA310 Kirkwood platform after updating to 3.11-rc. The problem was that the PCI-to-PCI bridge emulation was making the Linux PCI core believe that we support prefetchable memory, so the Linux PCI core was only filling the prefetchable memory base and limit registers, which does not lead to a MBus window being created. The below patch has been confirmed by Finn Hoffmann to fix his problem on Kirkwood, and has otherwise been successfully tested on the Armada XP GP platform with a e1000e PCIe NIC and a Marvell SATA PCIe card.

If one process calls sys_reboot and that process then stops other CPUs while those CPUs are within a spin_lock() region we can potentially encounter a deadlock scenario like below. CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- spin_lock(my_lock) smp_send_stop() <send IPI> handle_IPI() disable_preemption/irqs while(1); <PREEMPT> spin_lock(my_lock) <--- Waits forever We shouldn't attempt to run any other tasks after we send a stop IPI to a CPU so disable preemption so that this task runs to completion.

Move the signal handlers into a VDSO page rather than keeping them in the vectors page. This allows us to place them randomly within this page, and also map the page at a random location within userspace further protecting these code fragments from ROP attacks. The new VDSO page is also poisoned in the same way as the vector page. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

slots-fan on G5 Xserve is always running at full speed with windfarm_rm31 driver, resulting in a very high acoustic noise level. It seems the fan parameters are incorrect, and have been copied from the Drive Bay fan (RPM, not present on rm31) of the legacy therm_pm72 driver. This patch changes the parameters to match the Slots fan (PWM) of therm_pm72. With the patch, slots-fan speed drops from 99% to 19% during normal use, and slots-temp settle to ~42'C.

When an associativity level change is found for one thread, the siblings threads need to be updated as well. This is done today for PRRN in stage_topology_update() but is missing for VPHN in update_cpu_associativity_changes_mask(). This patch will correctly update all thread siblings during a topology change. Without this patch a topology update can result in a CPU in init_sched_groups_power() getting stuck indefinitely in a loop. This loop is built in build_sched_groups(). As a result of the thread moving to a node separate from its siblings the struct sched_group will have its next pointer set to point to itself rather than the sched_group struct of the next thread. This happens because we have a domain without the SD_OVERLAP flag, which is correct, and a topology that doesn't conform with reality (threads on the same core assigned to different numa nodes). When this list is traversed by init_sched_groups_power() it will reach the thread's sched_group structure and loop indefinitely; the cpu will be stuck at this point. The bug was exposed when VPHN was enabled in commit b7abef04 (v3.9).

Back in commit 89713ed1 "Add timer, performance monitor and machine check counts to /proc/interrupts" we added a count of PMU interrupts to the output of /proc/interrupts. At the time we named them "CNT" to match x86. However in commit 89ccf465 "Rename 'performance counter interrupt'", the x86 guys renamed theirs from "CNT" to "PMI". Arguably changing the name could break someone's script, but I think the chance of that is minimal, and it's preferable to have a name that 1) is somewhat meaningful, and 2) matches x86.

We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry, because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.

The parisc architecture does not have a pte special bit. As a result, special mappings are handled with the VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP flags. VM_MIXEDMAP mappings may or may not have a "struct page" backing. When pfn_valid() is false, there is no "struct page" backing. Otherwise, they are treated as normal pages. The FireGL driver uses the VM_MIXEDMAP without a backing "struct page". This treatment caused a panic due to a TLB data miss in update_mmu_cache. This appeared to be in the code generated for page_address(). We were in fact using a very circular bit of code to determine the physical address of the PFN in various cache routines. This wasn't valid when there was no "struct page" backing. The needed address can in fact be determined simply from the PFN itself without using the "struct page". The attached patch updates update_mmu_cache(), flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range() and flush_cache_page() to check pfn_valid() and to directly compute the PFN physical and virtual addresses.

vmpressure is called synchronously from reclaim where the target_memcg is guaranteed to be alive but the eventfd is signaled from the work queue context. This means that memcg (along with vmpressure structure which is embedded into it) might go away while the work item is pending which would result in use-after-release bug. We have two possible ways how to fix this. Either vmpressure pins memcg before it schedules vmpr->work and unpin it in vmpressure_work_fn or explicitely flush the work item from the css_offline context (as suggested by Tejun). This patch implements the later one and it introduces vmpressure_cleanup which flushes the vmpressure work queue item item. It hooks into mem_cgroup_css_offline after the memcg itself is cleaned up.
