      Pull tracing update from Steven Rostedt:
       "Mostly this is just clean ups and micro optimizations.
      
        The changes with more meat are:
      
         - Allowing the trace event filters to filter on CPU number and
           process ids
      
         - Two new markers for trace output latency were added (10 and 100
           msec latencies)
      
         - Have tracing_thresh filter function profiling time
      
        I also worked on modifying the ring buffer code for some future work,
        and moved the adding of the timestamp around.  One of my changes
        caused a regression, and since other changes were built on top of it
        and already tested, I had to operate a revert of that change.  Instead
        of rebasing, this change set has the code that caused a regression as
        well as the code to revert that change without touching the other
        changes that were made on top of it"

       "This is one of the larger audit patchsets in recent history,
        consisting of eight patches and almost 400 lines of changes.
      
        The bulk of the patchset is the new "audit by executable"
        functionality which allows admins to set an audit watch based on the
        executable on disk.  Prior to this, admins could only track an
        application by PID, which has some obvious limitations.

      xen: limit memory to architectural maximum · cb9e444b
      Juergen Gross authored
      When a pv-domain (including dom0) is started it tries to size it's
      p2m list according to the maximum possible memory amount it ever can
      achieve. Limit the initial maximum memory size to the architectural
      limit of the hardware in order to avoid overflows during remapping
      of memory.
      
      This problem will occur when dom0 is started with an initial memory
      size being a multiple of 1GB, but without specifying it's maximum
      memory size. The kernel must be configured without
      CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG for the problem to happen.

      xen: avoid another early crash of memory limited dom0 · ab24507c
      Juergen Gross authored
      Commit b1c9f169047b ("xen: split counting of extra memory pages...")
      introduced an error when dom0 was started with limited memory occurring
      only on some hardware.
      
      The problem arises in case dom0 is started with initial memory and
      maximum memory being the same. The kernel must be configured without
      CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG for the problem to happen. If all
      of this is true and the E820 map of the machine is sparse (some areas
      are not covered) then the machine might crash early in the boot
      process.

      In this case the area a0000-dffff isn't present in the map. This will
      confuse the memory setup of the domain when remapping the memory from
      such holes to populated areas.
      
      To avoid the problem the accounting of to be remapped memory has to
      count such holes in the E820 map as well.

      NFSv4: Respect the server imposed limit on how many changes we may cache · 5445b1fb
      Trond Myklebust authored
      The NFSv4 delegation spec allows the server to tell a client to limit how
      much data it cache after the file is closed. In return, the server
      guarantees enough free space to avoid ENOSPC situations, etc.
      Prior to this patch, we assumed we could always cache aggressively after
      close. Unfortunately, this causes problems with servers that set the
      limit to 0 and therefore do not offer any ENOSPC guarantees.

      Trond Myklebust authored
      Since we're tracking modifications to the page cache on a per-page
      basis, it makes sense to express the limit to how much we may cache
      in units of pages.

      task_work: remove fifo ordering guarantee · c8219906
      Eric Dumazet authored
      In commit f341861f ("task_work: add a scheduling point in
      task_work_run()") I fixed a latency problem adding a cond_resched()
      call.
      
      Later, commit ac3d0da8 added yet another loop to reverse a list,
      bringing back the latency spike :
      
      I've seen in some cases this loop taking 275 ms, if for example a
      process with 2,000,000 files is killed.
      
      We could add yet another cond_resched() in the reverse loop, or we
      can simply remove the reversal, as I do not think anything
      would depend on order of task_work_add() submitted works.
      
      Fixes: ac3d0da8 ("task_work: Make task_work_add() lockless")
