Current definition of map_inb() mport operations callback uses u32 type to specify required inbound window (IBW) size. This is limiting factor because existing hardware - tsi721 and fsl_rio, both support IBW size up to 16GB. Changing type of size parameter to u64 to allow IBW size configurations larger than 4GB.

Add PCIe Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS) adjustment parameter to allow users to override configuration register value set during PCIe bus initialization. Performance of Tsi721 device as PCIe bus master can be improved if MRRS is set to its maximum value (4096 bytes). Some platforms have limitations for supported MRRS and therefore the default value should be preserved, unless it is known that given platform supports full set of MRRS values defined by PCI Express specification.

Patch series "RapidIO subsystem updates". This set of patches contains RapidIO subsystem fixes and updates that have been made since kernel v4.6. The most significant update brings changes related to the latest revision of RapidIO specification (rev.3.x) and introduction of next generation of RapidIO switches by IDT (RXS1632 and RXS2448). This patch (of 13): This is RapidIO part of the original patch submitted by Joe Perches. (see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/3/5/19) Since commit 3cab1e71 ("lib/vsprintf: refactor duplicate code to special_hex_number()") %pa uses have been output with a 0x prefix.

Add channelized messaging driver to support native RapidIO messaging exchange between multiple senders/recipients on devices that use kernel RapidIO subsystem services. This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Prodrive Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT. Additional input was received from other members of RapidIO.org. The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which exposes messaging capabilities of RapidIO endpoint devices (mports) directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate. This char mode device driver allows user-space applications to setup messaging communication channels using single shared RapidIO messaging mailbox. By default this driver uses RapidIO MBOX_1 (MBOX_0 is reserved for use by RIONET Ethernet emulation driver).

I hit the following issue when run trinity in my system. The kernel is 3.4 version, but mainline has the same issue. The root cause is that the segment size is too large so the kerenl spends too long trying to allocate a page. Other cases will block until the test case quits. Also, OOM conditions will occur.

If a crash kernel is loaded, do not crash the running domain. This is needed if the kernel is loaded with crash_kexec_post_notifiers, because panic notifiers are run before __crash_kexec() in that case, and this Xen hook prevents its being called later.

kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space. To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical addresses. This patch extracts the current transation points into linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions. Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the architecture can override.

On PAE systems (eg, ARM LPAE) the vmcore note may be located above 4GB physical on 32-bit architectures, so we need a wider type than "unsigned long" here. Arrange for paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() to return a phys_addr_t, thereby allowing it to be located above 4GB. This makes no difference for kexec-tools, as they already assume a 64-bit type when reading from this file. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/E1b8koK-0004HS-K9@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.ukSigned-off-by:

In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only), tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations, placing the flag in ti->status. Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and drop the custom implementations. Additional architectures can opt in by removing their TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/8a14321d64a28e40adfddc90e18a96c086a6d6f9.1468522723.git.luto@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user space programs. This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h". The following minor changes are accompanied by this migration: - nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure. - inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

Define an own output routine to replace bare use of printk() function. The output routine is implemented with a macro and a helper function, which are named nilfs_msg() and __nilfs_msg(), respectively. __nilfs_msg() formats a message like "NILFS (<device-name>): <message>", prefixing it with a given log level, and terminates the statement with a newline. The "device-name" is optional to make it available in early stages; it will be omitted if a NULL pointer is passed to super block instance argument. nilfs_msg() wraps __nilfs_msg() and is removed if CONFIG_PRINTK is not set.
