       "Misc smaller fixes:
      
         - a parse_setup_data() boot crash fix
      
         - a memblock and an __early_ioremap cleanup
      
         - turn the always-on CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE=y into a configurable
           option and turn it off - it's an unrobust debug facility, it
           shouldn't be enabled by default"
      
      * 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
        x86: avoid remapping data in parse_setup_data()

       "As a preparation for Andi Kleen's LTO patchset (link time
        optimizations using GCC's -flto which build time optimization has
        steadily increased in quality over the past few years and might
        eventually be usable for the kernel too) this tree includes a handful
        of preparatory patches that make function calling convention
        annotations consistent again:
      
         - Mark every function without arguments (or 64bit only) that is used
           by assembly code with asmlinkage()
      
         - Mark every function with parameters or variables that is used by
           assembly code as __visible.

        debuggability advantages, for the time being"

      Merge branches 'perf-urgent-for-linus' and 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
      
      Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
        (--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
        has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities.  Everyone
        please update muscle memory accordingly! :-)
      
        Main changes on the perf kernel side:
      
         - Performance optimizations:
              . for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.
              . for time values, by Peter Zijlstra
      
         - New hardware support:
              . for Intel Silvermont (22nm Atom) CPUs, by Zheng Yan
              . for Intel SNB-EP uncore PMUs, by Zheng Yan
      
         - Enhanced hardware support:
              . for Intel uncore PMUs: add filter support for QPI boxes, by Zheng Yan
      
         - Core perf events code enhancements and fixes:
              . for full-nohz feature handling, by Frederic Weisbecker
              . for group events, by Jiri Olsa
              . for call chains, by Frederic Weisbecker
              . for event stream parsing, by Adrian Hunter
      
         - New ABI details:
              . Add attr->mmap2 attribute, by Stephane Eranian
              . Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID, by Jiri Olsa
              . Export u64 time_zero on the mmap header page to allow TSC
                calculation, by Adrian Hunter
              . Add dummy software event, by Adrian Hunter.
              . Add a new PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to make samples always
                parseable, by Adrian Hunter.
              . Make Power7 events available via sysfs, by Runzhen Wang.
      
         - Code cleanups and refactorings:
              . for nohz-full, by Frederic Weisbecker
              . for group events, by Jiri Olsa
      
         - Documentation updates:
              . for perf_event_type, by Peter Zijlstra
      
        Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
        utilize the above kernel side changes):
      
         - Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:
      
              . Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
                'perf record', by David Ahern.
      
              . Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
      
              . Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
      
              . Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
                by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
      
              . Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
                syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
                ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
                by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
      
              . Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
                syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
      
              . Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
                one can do:
      
                 [root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
                 [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
                 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]
                 [root@zoo ~]# perf trace -i perf.data -e futex --duration 1
                    17.799 ( 1.020 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, ua

                 [root@zoo ~]#
      
                By David Ahern.
      
              . Honor target pid / tid options when analyzing a file, by David Ahern.
      
              . Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
                far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
                by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
      
              . Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.
      
         - 'perf report/top' enhancements:
      
              . Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
                available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
                assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
                vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
                in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
                By Adrian Hunter.
      
              . Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts
                of call graphs, by Greg Price.
      
              . Simplify symbol filtering by doing it at machine class level,
                by Adrian Hunter.
      
              . Add support for callchains in the gtk UI, by Namhyung Kim.
      
              . Add --objdump option to 'perf top', by Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
      
         - 'perf kvm' enhancements:
      
              . Add option to print only events that exceed a specified time
                duration, by David Ahern.
      
              . Improve stack trace printing, by David Ahern.
      
              . Update documentation of the live command, by David Ahern
      
              . Add perf kvm stat live mode that combines aspects of 'perf kvm
                stat' record and report, by David Ahern.
      
              . Add option to analyze specific VM in perf kvm stat report, by
                David Ahern.
      
              . Do not require /lib/modules/* on a guest, by Jason Wessel.

      Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
       "A lot of activities on the cgroup front.  Most changes aren't visible
        to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the
        planned unified hierarchy.
      
         - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css
           (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's.  Because controllers
           (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled
           and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup
           and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of
           a cgroup.  Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup
           was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed.
      
           Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup
           core and controllers.  These assumptions are gradually removed,
           which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is
           completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path.  Note that
           decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these
           changes and the patchset is pending for the next window.
      
         - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is
           only used by memcg.  It is overly complex trying to achieve high
           flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best.  Going forward,
           new events will simply generate file modified event and the
           existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.  This pull
           request contains prepatory patches for such change.

      Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
      
       1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem rework and introduction
          of Intel Thunderbolt support on systems that use ACPI for signalling
          Thunderbolt hotplug events.  This also should make ACPIPHP work in
          some cases in which it was known to have problems.  From
          Rafael J Wysocki, Mika Westerberg and Kirill A Shutemov.
      
       2) ACPI core code cleanups and dock station support cleanups from
          Jiang Liu and Rafael J Wysocki.
      
       3) Fixes for locking problems related to ACPI device hotplug from
          Rafael J Wysocki.
      
       4) ACPICA update to version 20130725 includig fixes, cleanups, support
          for more than 256 GPEs per GPE block and a change to make the ACPI
          PM Timer optional (we've seen systems without the PM Timer in the
          field already).  One of the fixes, related to the DeRefOf operator,
          is necessary to prevent some Windows 8 oriented AML from causing
          problems to happen.  From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, and Jung-uk Kim.
      
       5) Removal of the old and long deprecated /proc/acpi/event interface
          and related driver changes from Thomas Renninger.
      
       6) ACPI and Xen changes to make the reduced hardware sleep work with
          the latter from Ben Guthro.
      
       7) ACPI video driver cleanups and a blacklist of systems that should
          not tell the BIOS that they are compatible with Windows 8 (or ACPI
          backlight and possibly other things will not work on them).  From
          Felipe Contreras.
      
       8) Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Aaron Lu, Hanjun Guo,
          Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan, Lan Tianyu, Sachin Kamat, Tang Chen,
          Toshi Kani, and Wei Yongjun.
      
       9) cpufreq ondemand governor target frequency selection change to
          reduce oscillations between min and max frequencies (essentially,
          it causes the governor to choose target frequencies proportional
          to load) from Stratos Karafotis.
      
      10) cpufreq fixes allowing sysfs attributes file permissions to be
          preserved over suspend/resume cycles Srivatsa S Bhat.
      
      11) Removal of Device Tree parsing for CPU device nodes from multiple
          cpufreq drivers that required some changes related to
          of_get_cpu_node() to be made in a few architectures and in the
          driver core.  From Sudeep KarkadaNagesha.
      
      12) cpufreq core fixes and cleanups related to mutual exclusion and
          driver module references from Viresh Kumar, Lukasz Majewski and
          Rafael J Wysocki.
      
      13) Assorted cpufreq fixes and cleanups from Amit Daniel Kachhap,
          Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz, Hanjun Guo, Jingoo Han, Joseph Lo,
          Julia Lawall, Li Zhong, Mark Brown, Sascha Hauer, Stephen Boyd,
          Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar.
      
      14) Fixes to prevent race conditions in coupled cpuidle from happening
          from Colin Cross.
      
      15) cpuidle core fixes and cleanups from Daniel Lezcano and
          Tuukka Tikkanen.

        The fifth patch is a v3.11 specific regression caused by a recent

        prepared a patch for that already (see genirq branch), but the best

        of -rc1.
      
        Another patch converts s390 to software referenced bits instead of
        relying on the reference bit in the storage key.  Therefore s390
        doesn't use storage keys anymore, except for kvm.

      ipc/msg.c: Fix lost wakeup in msgsnd(). · bebcb928
      Manfred Spraul authored
      The check if the queue is full and adding current to the wait queue of
      pending msgsnd() operations (ss_add()) must be atomic.
      
      Otherwise:
       - the thread that performs msgsnd() finds a full queue and decides to
         sleep.
       - the thread that performs msgrcv() first reads all messages from the
         queue and then sleeps, because the queue is empty.
       - the msgrcv() calls do not perform any wakeups, because the msgsnd()
         task has not yet called ss_add().
       - then the msgsnd()-thread first calls ss_add() and then sleeps.
      
      Net result: msgsnd() and msgrcv() both sleep forever.
      
      Observed with msgctl08 from ltp with a preemptible kernel.
      
      Fix: Call ipc_lock_object() before performing the check.
      
      The patch also moves security_msg_queue_msgsnd() under ipc_lock_object:
       - msgctl(IPC_SET) explicitely mentions that it tries to expunge any
         pending operations that are not allowed anymore with the new
         permissions.  If security_msg_queue_msgsnd() is called without locks,
         then there might be races.
       - it makes the patch much simpler.

       "Not much exciting going on with the regulator API this time around,
        lots of driver fixes and enhancements - the main thing is the addition
        of a new API to help make the stubbing code do the right thing for
        missing regulator mappings.
      
        Highlights:
      
         - A new regulator_get_optional() API call for regulators that can be
           absent in normal operation.  This currently does nothing but will
           be used to improve the stubbing code for unspecified regulators,
           helping avoid some of the issues we've seen with adding new
           regulator support.
         - Helpers for devices with multiple linear ranges of voltages in the
           same regulator.
         - Moved the helpers into a separate file since core.c is getting
           rather large.
         - New drivers for Dialog DA9210 and DA9063, Freescale pfuze100 and

      Merge branch 'lockref' (locked reference counts) · fc6d0b03
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Merge lockref infrastructure code by me and Waiman Long.
      
      I already merged some of the preparatory patches that didn't actually do
      any semantic changes earlier, but this merges the actual _reason_ for
      those preparatory patches.
      
      The "lockref" structure is a combination "spinlock and reference count"
      that allows optimized reference count accesses.  In particular, it
      guarantees that the reference count will be updated AS IF the spinlock
      was held, but using atomic accesses that cover both the reference count
      and the spinlock words, we can often do the update without actually
      having to take the lock.
      
      This allows us to avoid the nastiest cases of spinlock contention on
      large machines under heavy pathname lookup loads.  When updating the
      dentry reference counts on a large system, we'll still end up with the
      cache line bouncing around, but that's much less noticeable than
      actually having to spin waiting for the lock.
      
      * lockref:
        lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg()
        lockref: uninline lockref helper functions
        vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock()
        vfs: use lockref_get_not_zero() for optimistic lockless dget_parent()
        lockref: add 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper
