      s390/airq: silence lockdep warning · 0eb69a0c
      Sebastian Ott authored
      airq_iv_(alloc|free) is called by some users with interrupts enabled
      and by some with interrupts disabled which leads to the following
      lockdep warning:
      
      [ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
      3.14.0-15249-gbf29b7b-dirty #25 Not tainted
      ---------------------------------------------------------
      insmod/2108 just changed the state of lock:
       (&(&iv->lock)->rlock){+.....}, at: [<000000000046ee3e>] airq_iv_alloc+0x62/0x228
      but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-READ-safe lock in the past:
       (&info->lock){.-.-..}
      
      and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

        lock(&(&iv->lock)->rlock);
                                     local_irq_disable();
                                     lock(&info->lock);
                                     lock(&(&iv->lock)->rlock);
        <Interrupt>
          lock(&info->lock);
      
       *** DEADLOCK ***
      
      Although this is a false alarm (since each airq user consistently
      calls these functions from the same context) fix this by ensuring
      that interrupts are disabled when the airq lock is held.

      s390/sclp_vt220: Enable ASCII console per default · f2485f5d
      Peter Oberparleiter authored
      When you want to use the HMC's ASCII console as console device for
      a z/VM guest you have to specify console=ttyS1 on the kernel command
      line. But it won't work until you specify conmode=sclp as well.
      
      This behavior is inconsistent with the use of the ASCII console as
      TTY device which works on z/VM without the need to specify a conmode.
      
      Fix this inconsistency by removing the check for conmode=sclp in the
      ASCII console registration function.

      s390/cio: silence lockdep warning · dbe33fc9
      Sebastian Ott authored
      On systems where a ccw based console device is used a lockdep false alarm
      could be triggered when a device driver calls printk while holding a
      subchannels lock (e.g. in it's irq handler). Since this is valid behavior
      fix this by introducing a separate lock class for the console subchannels
      lock.
      
      The lockdep warning was revealed by "printk: enable interrupts before calling
      console_trylock_for_printk()" which changed console_unlock() to be called with
      lockdep enabled.

      s390/uaccess: always load the kernel ASCE after task switch · f8b13505
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      This patch fixes a problem introduced with git commit beef560b
      "s390/uaccess: simplify control register updates".
      
      The switch_mm function is not called if the next process is a kernel
      thread without an attached mm or is a nop if the mm does not change.
      But CR1 still needs to be loaded with the kernel ASCE in case the
      code returns to a uaccess function that uses the secondary space mode.
      
      In addition move the set_fs call from finish_arch_switch to
      finish_arch_post_lock_switch and then remove finish_arch_switch.

      Rik van Riel authored
      This function is supposed to return true if the new load imbalance is
      worse than the old one.  It didn't.  I can only hope brown paper bags
      are in style.
      
      Now things converge much better on both the 4 node and 8 node systems.
      
      I am not sure why this did not seem to impact specjbb performance on the
      4 node system, which is the system I have full-time access to.
      
      This bug was introduced recently, with commit e63da036 ("sched/numa:

      Don't trigger congestion wait on dirty-but-not-writeout pages · b738d764
      Linus Torvalds authored
      shrink_inactive_list() used to wait 0.1s to avoid congestion when all
      the pages that were isolated from the inactive list were dirty but not
      under active writeback.  That makes no real sense, and apparently causes
      major interactivity issues under some loads since 3.11.
      
      The ostensible reason for it was to wait for kswapd to start writing
      pages, but that seems questionable as well, since the congestion wait
      code seems to trigger for kswapd itself as well.  Also, the logic behind
      delaying anything when we haven't actually started writeback is not
      clear - it only delays actually starting that writeback.
      
      We'll still trigger the congestion waiting if
      
       (a) the process is kswapd, and we hit pages flagged for immediate
           reclaim
      
       (b) the process is not kswapd, and the zone backing dev writeback is
           actually congested.
      
      This probably needs to be revisited, but as it is this fixes a reported
      regression.

      Revert "x86/smpboot: Initialize secondary CPU only if master CPU will wait for it" · bb077d60
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit 3e1a878b.
      
      It came in very late, and already has one reported failure: Sitsofe
      reports that the current tree fails to boot on his EeePC, and bisected
      it down to this.  Rather than waste time trying to figure out what's
      wrong, just revert it.

      Input: synaptics - fix resolution for manually provided min/max · d49cb7ae
      Benjamin Tissoires authored
      commit 421e08c4 fixed the reported min/max for the X and Y axis,
      but unfortunately, it broke the resolution of those same axis.
      
      On the t540p, the resolution is the same regarding X and Y. It is not
      a problem for xf86-input-synaptics because this driver is only interested
      in the ratio between X and Y.
      Unfortunately, xf86-input-cmt uses directly the resolution, and having a
      null resolution leads to some divide by 0 errors, which are translated by
      -infinity in the resulting coordinates.
