ASUS WMI driver got a big refactoring in order to support the TUF Gaming
laptops. Besides that, the regression with backlight being permanently off
on various EeePC laptops has been fixed.
Accelerometer on HP ProBook 450 G0 shows wrong measurements due to
X axis being inverted. This has been fixed.
Intel PMC core driver has been extended to be ACPI enumerated
if the DSDT provides device with _HID "INT33A1". This allows
to convert the driver to be pure platform and support new hardware
purely based on ACPI DSDT.
From now on the Intel Speed Select Technology is supported thru
a corresponding driver. This driver provides an access to the features
of the ISST, such as Performance Profile, Core Power, Base frequency and
Turbo Frequency.
Mellanox platform drivers has been refactored and now extended
to support more systems, including new coming ones.
The OLPC XO-1.75 platform is now supported.
CB4063 Beckhoff Automation board is using PMC clocks,
provided via pmc_atom driver, for ethernet controllers in a way
that they can't be managed by the clock driver. The quirk
has been extended to cover this case.
Touchscreen on Chuwi Hi10 Plus tablet has been enabled. Meanwhile
the information of Chuwi Hi10 Air has been fixed to cover more models
based on the same platform.
Xiaomi notebooks have WMI interface enabled. Thus, the driver to support it
has been provided. It required some extension of the generic WMI library,
which allows to propagate opaque context to the ->probe() of the
individual drivers.
This release includes debugfs clean up from Greg KH for several drivers
that drop return code check and make debugfs absence or failure non-fatal.
Miscellaneous fixes here and there, mostly for Acer WMI and
various Intel drivers.
The listed below commits are duplicated due to previously pushed fixes in v5.2 cycle:

With vsyscall emulation on, a readable vsyscall page is still exposed that
contains syscall instructions that validly implement the vsyscalls.
This is required because certain dynamic binary instrumentation tools
attempt to read the call targets of call instructions in the instrumented
code. If the instrumented code uses vsyscalls, then the vsyscall page needs
to contain readable code.
Unfortunately, leaving readable memory at a deterministic address can be
used to help various ASLR bypasses, so some hardening value can be gained
by disallowing vsyscall reads.
Given how rarely the vsyscall page needs to be readable, add a mechanism to
make the vsyscall page be execute only.

Convert kdump documentation to ReST and add it to the
user faced manual, as the documents are mainly focused on
sysadmins that would be enabling kdump.
Note: the vmcoreinfo.rst has one very long title on one of its
sub-sections:
PG_lru|PG_private|PG_swapcache|PG_swapbacked|PG_slab|PG_hwpoision|PG_head_mask|PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE(~PG_buddy)|PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE(~PG_offline)
I opted to break this one, into two entries with the same content,
in order to make it easier to display after being parsed in html and PDF.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

AVX-512 components usage can result in turbo frequency drop. So it's useful
to expose AVX-512 usage elapsed time as a heuristic hint for user space job
schedulers to cluster the AVX-512 using tasks together.
Examples:
$ while [ 1 ]; do cat /proc/tid/arch_status | grep AVX512; sleep 1; done
AVX512_elapsed_ms: 4
AVX512_elapsed_ms: 8
AVX512_elapsed_ms: 4
This means that 4 milliseconds have elapsed since the tsks AVX512 usage was
detected when the task was scheduled out.
$ cat /proc/tid/arch_status | grep AVX512
AVX512_elapsed_ms: -1
'-1' indicates that no AVX512 usage was recorded for this task.
The time exposed is not necessarily accurate when the arch_status file is
read as the AVX512 usage is only evaluated when a task is scheduled
out. Accurate usage information can be obtained with performance counters.

Add ACRN guest support so that it allows Linux to be booted under the
ACRN hypervisor. This adds only the barebones implementation.

Commit 60a3cdd063 ("x86: add optimized inlining") introduced
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, but it has been available only for x86.
The idea is obviously arch-agnostic. This commit moves the config entry
from arch/x86/Kconfig.debug to lib/Kconfig.debug so that all
architectures can benefit from it.
This can make a huge difference in kernel image size especially when
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is enabled.
For example, I got 3.5% smaller arm64 kernel for v5.1-rc1.

This also slightly improves the "Kernel hacking" Kconfig menu as
e61aca5158 ("Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave Hansen') suggested;
this config option would be a good fit in the "compiler option" menu.

Most architectures do not need the memblock memory after the page
allocator is initialized, but only few enable ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK in the
arch Kconfig.
Replacing ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK with ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK and inverting the
logic makes it clear which architectures actually use memblock after
system initialization and skips the necessity to add ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK
to the architectures that are still missing that option.

alternatives, and they are implemented in arch/x86/lib/hweight.S
x86 does not rely on the generic C implementation lib/hweight.c

When DYNAMIC_FTRACE is enabled in the kernel, all the functions that can be
traced by the function tracer have a "nop" placeholder at the start of the
function. When function tracing is enabled, the nop is converted into a call
to the tracing infrastructure where the functions get traced. This also
allows for specifying specific functions to trace, and a lot of
infrastructure is built on top of this.
When DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not enabled, all the functions have a call to the
ftrace trampoline. A check is made to see if a function pointer is the
ftrace_stub or not, and if it is not, it calls the function pointer to trace
the code. This adds over 10% overhead to the kernel even when tracing is
disabled.
When an architecture supports DYNAMIC_FTRACE there really is no reason to
use the static tracing. I have kept non DYNAMIC_FTRACE available in x86 so
that the generic code for non DYNAMIC_FTRACE can be tested. There is no
reason to support non DYNAMIC_FTRACE for both x86_64 and x86_32. As the non
DYNAMIC_FTRACE for x86_32 does not even support fentry, and we want to
remove mcount completely, there's no reason to keep non DYNAMIC_FTRACE
around for x86_32.

Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
"This patchset makes it possible to retrieve pidfds at process creation
time by introducing the new flag CLONE_PIDFD to the clone() system
call. Linus originally suggested to implement this as a new flag to
clone() instead of making it a separate system call.
After a thorough review from Oleg CLONE_PIDFD returns pidfds in the
parent_tidptr argument. This means we can give back the associated pid
and the pidfd at the same time. Access to process metadata information
thus becomes rather trivial.
As has been agreed, CLONE_PIDFD creates file descriptors based on
anonymous inodes similar to the new mount api. They are made
unconditional by this patchset as they are now needed by core kernel
code (vfs, pidfd) even more than they already were before (timerfd,
signalfd, io_uring, epoll etc.). The core patchset is rather small.
The bulky looking changelist is caused by David's very simple changes
to Kconfig to make anon inodes unconditional.
A pidfd comes with additional information in fdinfo if the kernel
supports procfs. The fdinfo file contains the pid of the process in
the callers pid namespace in the same format as the procfs status
file, i.e. "Pid:\t%d".
To remove worries about missing metadata access this patchset comes
with a sample/test program that illustrates how a combination of
CLONE_PIDFD and pidfd_send_signal() can be used to gain race-free
access to process metadata through /proc/<pid>.
Further work based on this patchset has been done by Joel. His work
makes pidfds pollable. It finished too late for this merge window. I
would prefer to have it sitting in linux-next for a while and send it
for inclusion during the 5.3 merge window"

Pull stack trace updates from Ingo Molnar:
"So Thomas looked at the stacktrace code recently and noticed a few
weirdnesses, and we all know how such stories of crummy kernel code
meeting German engineering perfection end: a 45-patch series to clean
it all up! :-)
Here's the changes in Thomas's words:
'Struct stack_trace is a sinkhole for input and output parameters
which is largely pointless for most usage sites. In fact if embedded
into other data structures it creates indirections and extra storage
overhead for no benefit.
Looking at all usage sites makes it clear that they just require an
interface which is based on a storage array. That array is either on
stack, global or embedded into some other data structure.
Some of the stack depot usage sites are outright wrong, but
fortunately the wrongness just causes more stack being used for
nothing and does not have functional impact.
Another oddity is the inconsistent termination of the stack trace
with ULONG_MAX. It's pointless as the number of entries is what
determines the length of the stored trace. In fact quite some call
sites remove the ULONG_MAX marker afterwards with or without nasty
comments about it. Not all architectures do that and those which do,
do it inconsistenly either conditional on nr_entries == 0 or
unconditionally.
The following series cleans that up by:
1) Removing the ULONG_MAX termination in the architecture code
2) Removing the ULONG_MAX fixups at the call sites
3) Providing plain storage array based interfaces for stacktrace
and stackdepot.
4) Cleaning up the mess at the callsites including some related
cleanups.
5) Removing the struct stack_trace based interfaces
This is not changing the struct stack_trace interfaces at the
architecture level, but it removes the exposure to the generic
code'"

Pull unified TLB flushing from Ingo Molnar:
"This contains the generic mmu_gather feature from Peter Zijlstra,
which is an all-arch unification of TLB flushing APIs, via the
following (broad) steps:
- enhance the <asm-generic/tlb.h> APIs to cover more arch details
- convert most TLB flushing arch implementations to the generic
<asm-generic/tlb.h> APIs.
- remove leftovers of per arch implementations

TLB flushing APIs"

Add two new functions set_direct_map_default_noflush() and
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() for setting the direct map alias for the
page to its default valid permissions and to an invalid state that cannot
be cached in a TLB, respectively. These functions do not flush the TLB.
Note, __kernel_map_pages() does something similar but flushes the TLB and
doesn't reset the permission bits to default on all architectures.
Also add an ARCH config ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP for specifying whether
these have an actual implementation or a default empty one.

This is the ancient loading interface which requires special tools to be
used. The bigger problem with it is that it is as inadequate for proper
loading of microcode as the late microcode loading interface is because
it happens just as late.
iucode_tool's manpage already warns people that it is deprecated.
Deprecate it and turn it off by default along with a big fat warning in
the Kconfig help. It will go away sometime in the future.

The QUEUED_LOCK_STAT option to report queued spinlocks event counts
was previously allowed only on x86 architecture. To make the locking
event counting code more useful, it is now renamed to a more generic
LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS config option. This new option will be available to
all the architectures that use qspinlock at the moment.
Other locking code can now start to use the generic locking event
counting code by including lock_events.h and put the new locking event
names into the lock_events_list.h header file.
My experience with lock event counting is that it gives valuable insight
on how the locking code works and what can be done to make it better. I
would like to extend this benefit to other locking code like mutex and
rwsem in the near future.
The PV qspinlock specific code will stay in qspinlock_stat.h. The
locking event counters will now reside in the <debugfs>/lock_event_counts
directory.
