Arend van Spriel 10f8113ecb lib: cordic: add library module providing cordic angle calculation
The brcm80211 driver in the staging tree has a cordic function to
determine cosine and sine for a given angle. Feedback received from
John Linville suggested that these kind of functions should be made
available to others as a library function in the kernel tree. The
b43 driver also has a cordic angle calculation implemented.

Arend van Spriel 7150962d63 lib: crc8: add new library module providing crc8 algorithm
The brcm80211 driver in staging tree uses a crc8 function. Based on
feedback from John Linville to move this to lib directory, the linux
source has been searched. Although there is currently only one other
kernel driver using this algorithm (ie. drivers/ssb) we are providing
this as a library function for others to use.

Akinobu Mita 19de85ef57 bitops: add #ifndef for each of find bitops
The style that we normally use in asm-generic is to test the macro itself
for existence, so in asm-generic, do:

	#ifndef find_next_zero_bit_le
	extern unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long offset);
	#endif

and in the architectures, write

	static inline unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long offset)
	#define find_next_zero_bit_le find_next_zero_bit_le

This adds the #ifndef for each of the find bitops in the generic header
and source files.

Jesse Gross 704f15ddb5 flex_array: avoid divisions when accessing elements
On most architectures division is an expensive operation and accessing an
element currently requires four of them.  This performance penalty
effectively precludes flex arrays from being used on any kind of fast
path.  However, two of these divisions can be handled at creation time and
the others can be replaced by a reciprocal divide, completely avoiding
real divisions on access.

Frederic Weisbecker ba9f207c9f rcu: Fix unpaired rcu_irq_enter() from locking selftests
HARDIRQ_ENTER() maps to irq_enter() which calls rcu_irq_enter().
But HARDIRQ_EXIT() maps to __irq_exit() which doesn't call
rcu_irq_exit().

So for every locking selftest that simulates hardirq disabled,
we create an imbalance in the rcu extended quiescent state
internal state.

As a result, after the first missing rcu_irq_exit(), subsequent
irqs won't exit dyntick-idle mode after leaving the interrupt
handler.  This means that RCU won't see the affected CPU as being
in an extended quiescent state, resulting in long grace-period
delays (as in grace periods extending for hours).

To fix this, just use __irq_enter() to simulate the hardirq
context. This is sufficient for the locking selftests as we
don't need to exit any extended quiescent state or perform
any check that irqs normally do when they wake up from idle.

As a side effect, this patch makes it possible to restore
"rcu: Decrease memory-barrier usage based on semi-formal proof",
which eventually helped finding this bug.

Stephen Boyd 5ca43f6c3b lib: consolidate DEBUG_STACK_USAGE option
Most arches define CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE exactly the same way.  Move it
to lib/Kconfig.debug so each arch doesn't have to define it.  This
obviously makes the option generic, but that's fine because the config is
already used in generic code.

It's not obvious to me that sysrq-P actually does anything caution by
keeping the most inclusive wording.

Alexey Dobriyan c196e32a11 lib: add kstrto*_from_user()
There is quite a lot of code which does copy_from_user() + strict_strto*()
or simple_strto*() combo in slightly different ways.

Before doing conversions all over tree, let's get final API correct.

Enter kstrtoull_from_user() and friends.

Typical code which uses them looks very simple:

	TYPE val;
	int rv;

	rv = kstrtoTYPE_from_user(buf, count, 0, &val);
	if (rv < 0)
		return rv;
	[use val]
	return count;

There is a tiny semantic difference from the plain kstrto*() API -- the
latter allows any amount of leading zeroes, while the former copies data
into buffer on stack and thus allows leading zeroes as long as it fits
into buffer.

This shouldn't be a problem for typical usecase "echo 42 > /proc/x".

The point is to make reading one integer from userspace _very_ simple and
very bug free.

Mike Travis 4b060420a5 bitmap, irq: add smp_affinity_list interface to /proc/irq
Manually adjusting the smp_affinity for IRQ's becomes unwieldy when the
cpu count is large.

Setting smp affinity to cpus 256 to 263 would be:

	echo 000000ff,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000 > smp_affinity

instead of:

	echo 256-263 > smp_affinity_list

Think about what it looks like for cpus around say, 4088 to 4095.

We already have many alternate "list" interfaces:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/indexY/shared_cpu_list
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings_list
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings_list
/sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/cpulist
/sys/devices/pci***/***/local_cpulist

Add a companion interface, smp_affinity_list to use cpu lists instead of
cpu maps.  This conforms to other companion interfaces where both a map
and a list interface exists.

This required adding a bitmap_parselist_user() function in a manner
similar to the bitmap_parse_user() function.

David Rientjes 7bf02ea22c arch, mm: filter disallowed nodes from arch specific show_mem functions
Architectures that implement their own show_mem() function did not pass
the filter argument to show_free_areas() to appropriately avoid emitting
the state of nodes that are disallowed in the current context.  This patch
now passes the filter argument to show_free_areas() so those nodes are now
avoided.

This patch also removes the show_free_areas() wrapper around
__show_free_areas() and converts existing callers to pass an empty filter.

ia64 emits additional information for each node, so skip_free_areas_zone()
must be made global to filter disallowed nodes and it is converted to use
a nid argument rather than a zone for this use case.

Tim Abbott 1a94dc35bc lib: Add generic binary search function to the kernel.
There a large number hand-coded binary searches in the kernel (run
"git grep search | grep binary" to find many of them).  Since in my
experience, hand-coding binary searches can be error-prone, it seems
worth cleaning this up by providing a generic binary search function.

This generic binary search implementation comes from Ksplice.  It has
the same basic API as the C library bsearch() function.  Ksplice uses
it in half a dozen places with 4 different comparison functions, and I
think our code is substantially cleaner because of this.

Ingo Molnar 411f05f123 vsprintf: Turn kptr_restrict off by default
kptr_restrict has been triggering bugs in apps such as perf, and it also makes
the system less useful by default, so turn it off by default.

This is how we generally handle security features that remove functionality,
such as firewall code or SELinux - they have to be configured and activated
from user-space.

Distributions can turn kptr_restrict on again via this line in
/etc/sysctrl.conf:

kernel.kptr_restrict = 1

  only once per bootup, or not at all. )

The RCU CPU stall warnings can now be controlled using the

from sysfs.  There is therefore no longer any reason to have
kernel config parameters for this feature.  This commit therefore
removes the RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR and RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR_RUNNABLE

Just like kmalloc will allow one to allocate a 0 length segment of memory
flex arrays should do the same thing.  It should bomb if you try to use

This is needed because when SELinux switched to using flex_arrays in 2.6.38

returning -ENOSPC when previously it worked.

Eric Paris a8d05c81fb flex_array: allow 0 length elements
flex_arrays are supposed to be a replacement for:
kmalloc(num_elements * sizeof(element))

If kmalloc is given 0 num_elements or a 0 size element it will happily return
ZERO_SIZE_PTR.  Which looks like a valid allocation, but which will explode if
something actually try to use it.  The current flex_array code will return an
equivalent result if num_elements is 0, but will fail to work if
sizeof(element) is 0.  This patch allows allocation to work even for 0 size
elements.  It will cause flex_arrays to explode though if they are used.
Imitating the kmalloc behavior.

Jeff Mahoney e11feaa119 watchdog, hung_task_timeout: Add Kconfig configurable default
This patch allows the default value for sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs
to be set at build time. The feature carries virtually no overhead,
so it makes sense to keep it enabled. On heavily loaded systems, though,
it can end up triggering stack traces when there is no bug other than
the system being underprovisioned. We use this patch to keep the hung task
facility available but disabled at boot-time.

The default of 120 seconds is preserved. As a note, commit e162b39a may
have accidentally reverted commit fb822db4, which raised the default from
120 seconds to 480 seconds.

NOTE!

This merge commit was created to fix compilation error. The block
tree was merged upstream and removed the 'elv_queue_empty()'
function which the new 'mtdswap' driver is using. So a simple
merge of the mtd tree with upstream does not compile. And the
mtd tree has already be published, so re-basing it is not an option.

To fix this unfortunate situation, I had to merge upstream into the
mtd-2.6.git tree without committing, put the fixup patch on top of
this, and then commit this. The result is that we do not have commits
which do not compile.

In other words, this merge commit "merges" 3 things: the MTD tree, the
upstream tree, and the fixup patch.

David Rientjes b2b755b5f1 lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementations
Commit ddd588b5dd ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():

	lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
	show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
	arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here

The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.

Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.

Namhyung Kim 0f77a8d378 vsprintf: Introduce %pB format specifier
The %pB format specifier is for stack backtrace. Its handler
sprint_backtrace() does symbol lookup using (address-1) to
ensure the address will not point outside of the function.

If there is a tail-call to the function marked "noreturn",
gcc optimized out the code after the call then causes saved
return address points outside of the function (i.e. the start
of the next function), so pollutes call trace somewhat.

This patch adds the %pB printk mechanism that allows architecture
call-trace printout functions to improve backtrace printouts.

Jim Keniston 565d76cb7d zlib: slim down zlib_deflate() workspace when possible
Instead of always creating a huge (268K) deflate_workspace with the
maximum compression parameters (windowBits=15, memLevel=8), allow the
caller to obtain a smaller workspace by specifying smaller parameter
values.

For example, when capturing oops and panic reports to a medium with
limited capacity, such as NVRAM, compression may be the only way to
capture the whole report.  In this case, a small workspace (24K works
fine) is a win, whether you allocate the workspace when you need it (i.e.,
during an oops or panic) or at boot time.

I've verified that this patch works with all accepted values of windowBits
(positive and negative), memLevel, and compression level.

Alexey Dobriyan 33ee3b2e2e kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) right
1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty,
   libc way to indicate failure.
2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and
   comments pretend they do.
3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants,
   but users want strtou8()
4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong:
   Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist
   because conversion should be strict by default.

The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types.
Enter
	kstrtoull()
	kstrtoll()
	kstrtoul()
	kstrtol()
	kstrtouint()
	kstrtoint()

	kstrtou64()
	kstrtos64()
	kstrtou32()
	kstrtos32()
	kstrtou16()
	kstrtos16()
	kstrtou8()
	kstrtos8()

Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well.

strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and
eventually will be removed altogether.

Use kstrto*() in code today!

Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if
      they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution,
      because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these
      functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and
      __alignof__ at least always works.

Kees Cook 9f36e2c448 printk: use %pK for /proc/kallsyms and /proc/modules
In an effort to reduce kernel address leaks that might be used to help
target kernel privilege escalation exploits, this patch uses %pK when
displaying addresses in /proc/kallsyms, /proc/modules, and
/sys/module/*/sections/*.

Note that this changes %x to %p, so some legitimately 0 values in
/proc/kallsyms would have changed from 00000000 to "(null)".  To avoid
this, "(null)" is not used when using the "K" format.  Anything that was
already successfully parsing "(null)" in addition to full hex digits
should have no problem with this change.  (Thanks to Joe Perches for the
suggestion.) Due to the %x to %p, "void *" casts are needed since these
addresses are already "unsigned long" everywhere internally, due to their
starting life as ELF section offsets.

Don Zickus fef2c9bc1b kernel/watchdog.c: allow hardlockup to panic by default
When a cpu is considered stuck, instead of limping along and just printing
a warning, it is sometimes preferred to just panic, let kdump capture the
vmcore and reboot.  This gets the machine back into a stable state quickly
while saving the info that got it into a stuck state to begin with.

Add a Kconfig option to allow users to set the hardlockup to panic
by default.  Also add in a 'nmi_watchdog=nopanic' to override this.

David Rientjes ddd588b5dd oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from meminfo on oom kill
The oom killer is extremely verbose for machines with a large number of
cpus and/or nodes.  This verbosity can often be harmful if it causes other
important messages to be scrolled from the kernel log and incurs a
signicant time delay, specifically for kernels with CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT >
8.

This patch causes only memory information to be displayed for nodes that
are allowed by current's cpuset when dumping the VM state.  Information
for all other nodes is irrelevant to the oom condition; we don't care if
there's an abundance of memory elsewhere if we can't access it.

This only affects the behavior of dumping memory information when an oom
is triggered.  Other dumps, such as for sysrq+m, still display the
unfiltered form when using the existing show_mem() interface.

Additionally, the per-cpu pageset statistics are extremely verbose in oom
killer output, so it is now suppressed.  This removes

	nodes_weight(current->mems_allowed) * (1 + nr_cpus)

lines from the oom killer output.

Callers may use __show_mem(SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES) to filter disallowed
nodes.

Ivan Djelic 437aa565e2 lib: add shared BCH ECC library
This is a new software BCH encoding/decoding library, similar to the shared
Reed-Solomon library.

Binary BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem) codes are widely used to correct
errors in NAND flash devices requiring more than 1-bit ecc correction; they
are generally better suited for NAND flash than RS codes because NAND bit
errors do not occur in bursts. Latest SLC NAND devices typically require at
least 4-bit ecc protection per 512 bytes block.

This library provides software encoding/decoding, but may also be used with
ASIC/SoC hardware BCH engines to perform error correction. It is being
currently used for this purpose on an OMAP3630 board (4bit/8bit HW BCH). It
has also been used to decode raw dumps of NAND devices with on-die BCH ecc
engines (e.g. Micron 4bit ecc SLC devices).

Latest NAND devices (including SLC) can exhibit high error rates (typically
a dozen or more bitflips per hour during stress tests); in order to
minimize the performance impact of error correction, this library
implements recently developed algorithms for fast polynomial root finding
(see bch.c header for details) instead of the traditional exhaustive Chien
root search; a few performance figures are provided below:

Platform: arm926ejs @ 468 MHz, 32 KiB icache, 16 KiB dcache
BCH ecc : 4-bit per 512 bytes

Encoding average throughput: 250 Mbits/s

Error correction time (compared with Chien search):

        average   worst      average (Chien)  worst (Chien)
----------------------------------------------------------
1 bit    8.5 µs   11 µs         200 µs           383 µs
2 bit    9.7 µs   12.5 µs       477 µs           728 µs
3 bit   18.1 µs   20.6 µs       758 µs          1010 µs
4 bit   19.5 µs   23 µs        1028 µs          1280 µs

In the above figures, "worst" is meant in terms of error pattern, not in
terms of cache miss / page faults effects (not taken into account here).

The library has been extensively tested on the following platforms: x86,
x86_64, arm926ejs, omap3630, qemu-ppc64, qemu-mips.

In complex subsystems like mac80211 structures can contain several
timers and work structs, so identifying a specific instance from the
call trace and object type output of debugobjects can be hard.

Allow the subsystems which support debugobjects to provide a hint
function. This function returns a pointer to a kernel address
(preferrably the objects callback function) which is printed along
with the debugobjects type.

Add hint methods for timer_list, work_struct and hrtimer.

Linus Torvalds 3c18d4de86 Expand CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST to several other list operations
When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption
errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra
debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries.

However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding
the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that.

So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries,
we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them..

I think this root cause is the following:

 radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() always tags the root tag with settag
 if the root tag is set with iftag even if there are no iftag tags
 in the specified range (Of course, there are some iftag tags
 outside the specified range).

===============================================================================
[[[Detailed description]]]

(1) Why cannot radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag_slot() return forever?

__lookup_tag():
 - Return with 0.
 - Return with the index which is not bigger than the old one as the
   input parameter.

Therefore the following "while" repeats forever because the above
conditions cause "ret" not to be updated and the cur_index cannot be
changed into the bigger one.

(So, radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag_slot() cannot return forever.)

radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag_slot():
1178         while (ret < max_items) {
1179                 unsigned int slots_found;
1180                 unsigned long next_index;       /* Index of next search */
1181
1182                 if (cur_index > max_index)
1183                         break;
1184                 slots_found = __lookup_tag(node, results + ret,
1185                                 cur_index, max_items - ret, &next_index,
tag);
1186                 ret += slots_found;
			// cannot update ret because slots_found == 0.
			// so, this while loops forever.
1187                 if (next_index == 0)
1188                         break;
1189                 cur_index = next_index;
1190         }

(2) Why does __lookup_tag() return with 0 and doesn't update the index?

Assuming the following:
  - the one of the slot in radix_tree_node is NULL.
  - the one of the tag which corresponds to the slot sets with
    PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE or other.
  - In a certain height(!=0), the corresponding index is 0.

a) __lookup_tag() notices that the tag is set.

1005 static unsigned int
1006 __lookup_tag(struct radix_tree_node *slot, void ***results, unsigned long index,
1007         unsigned int max_items, unsigned long *next_index, unsigned int tag)
1008 {
1009         unsigned int nr_found = 0;
1010         unsigned int shift, height;
1011
1012         height = slot->height;
1013         if (height == 0)
1014                 goto out;
1015         shift = (height-1) * RADIX_TREE_MAP_SHIFT;
1016
1017         while (height > 0) {
1018                 unsigned long i = (index >> shift) & RADIX_TREE_MAP_MASK ;
1019
1020                 for (;;) {
1021                         if (tag_get(slot, tag, i))
1022                                 break;
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* the index is not updated yet.

b) __lookup_tag() notices that the slot is NULL.

1023                         index &= ~((1UL << shift) - 1);
1024                         index += 1UL << shift;
1025                         if (index == 0)
1026                                 goto out;       /* 32-bit wraparound */
1027                         i++;
1028                         if (i == RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE)
1029                                 goto out;
1030                 }
1031                 height--;
1032                 if (height == 0) {      /* Bottom level: grab some items */
...
1055                 }
1056                 shift -= RADIX_TREE_MAP_SHIFT;
1057                 slot = rcu_dereference_raw(slot->slots[i]);
1058                 if (slot == NULL)
1059                         break;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

c) __lookup_tag() doesn't update the index and return with 0.

1060         }
1061 out:
1062         *next_index = index;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1063         return nr_found;
1064 }

(3) Why is the slot NULL even if the tag is set?

Because radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() always sets the root tag with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE if the root tag is set with PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY,
even if there is no tag which can be set with PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
in the specified range (from *first_indexp to last_index). Of course,
some PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY nodes must exist outside the specified range.
(radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() is called only from tag_pages_for_writeback())

 640 unsigned long radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged(struct radix_tree_root
*root,
 641                 unsigned long *first_indexp, unsigned long last_index,
 642                 unsigned long nr_to_tag,
 643                 unsigned int iftag, unsigned int settag)
 644 {
 645         unsigned int height = root->height;
 646         struct radix_tree_path path[height];
 647         struct radix_tree_path *pathp = path;
 648         struct radix_tree_node *slot;
 649         unsigned int shift;
 650         unsigned long tagged = 0;
 651         unsigned long index = *first_indexp;
 652
 653         last_index = min(last_index, radix_tree_maxindex(height));
 654         if (index > last_index)
 655                 return 0;
 656         if (!nr_to_tag)
 657                 return 0;
 658         if (!root_tag_get(root, iftag)) {
 659                 *first_indexp = last_index + 1;
 660                 return 0;
 661         }
 662         if (height == 0) {
 663                 *first_indexp = last_index + 1;
 664                 root_tag_set(root, settag);
 665                 return 1;
 666         }
...
 733         root_tag_set(root, settag);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 734         *first_indexp = index;
 735
 736         return tagged;
 737 }

As the result, there is no radix_tree_node which is set with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE but the root tag(radix_tree_root) is set with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE.

After that, radix_tree_extend() via radix_tree_insert() is called
when the page is added.

to succeed the status of the root tag.

After that, the index 3 page is released by remove_from_page_cache().
Then we can make the situation that the tag is set with PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
and that the slot which corresponds to the tag is NULL.

============================================

To solve this problem

Change to that radix_tree_tag_if_tagged() doesn't tag the root tag
if it doesn't set any tags within the specified range.

Like this.
============================================
 640 unsigned long radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged(struct radix_tree_root
*root,
 641                 unsigned long *first_indexp, unsigned long last_index,
 642                 unsigned long nr_to_tag,
 643                 unsigned int iftag, unsigned int settag)
 644 {
 650         unsigned long tagged = 0;
...
 733 	     if (tagged)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 734            root_tag_set(root, settag);
 735         *first_indexp = index;
 736
 737         return tagged;
 738 }

Jesper Dangaard Brouer de0368d5fe textsearch: doc - fix spelling in lib/textsearch.c.
Found the following spelling errors while reading the textsearch code:
  "facitilies"  -> "facilities"
  "continously" -> "continuously"
  "arbitary"    -> "arbitrary"
  "patern"      -> "pattern"
  "occurences"  -> "occurrences"

I'll try to push this patch through DaveM, given the only users
of textsearch is in the net/ tree (nf_conntrack_amanda.c, xt_string.c
and em_text.c)

Ben Hutchings c39649c331 lib: cpu_rmap: CPU affinity reverse-mapping
When initiating I/O on a multiqueue and multi-IRQ device, we may want
to select a queue for which the response will be handled on the same
or a nearby CPU.  This requires a reverse-map of IRQ affinity.  Add
library functions to support a generic reverse-mapping from CPUs to
objects with affinity and the specific case where the objects are
IRQs.

David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.
