Merge tag 'dt-dma-properties-for-arm' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ssantosh/linux-keystone into devel-stable
DT support for 'dma-ranges'and 'dma-coherent' properties with ARM updates
- The 'dma-ranges' helps to take care of few DMAable system memory
restrictions by use of dma_pfn_offset which is maintained per
device. Arch code then uses it for dma address translations for such
cases. We update the dma_pfn_offset accordingly during DT the device
creation process.
- The 'dma-coherent' property is used to setup arch's coherent dma_ops.
On few architectures, there are few restrictions on DMAble area of system
RAM. That also means that devices needs to know about this restrictions so
that the dma_masks can be updated accordingly and dma address translation
helpers can add/subtract the dma offset.
In most of cases DMA addresses can be performed using offset value of
Bus address space relatively to physical address space as following:
PFN->DMA: __pfn_to_phys(pfn + [-]dma_pfn_offset)
DMA->PFN: __phys_to_pfn(dma_addr) + [-]dma_pfn_offset
So we introduce per device dma_pfn_offset which can be popullated
by architecture init code while creating the devices.

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.
This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.
The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self
node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is
balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an
early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.
This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.
This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.
Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public
functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection().
kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be
used to cater to more complex cases.
v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it.
Reported by kbuild test bot.
v3: kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() separated out from
kernfs_remove_self() and exposed as public API.

introduce a helper routine acpi_preset_companion() doing an
equivalent thing.
The main motivation for doing this is that there are things
represented by struct acpi_device objects that don't have valid
ACPI handles (so called fixed ACPI hardware features, such as
power and sleep buttons) and we would like to create platform
device objects for them and "glue" them to their ACPI companions
in the usual way (which currently is impossible due to the
lack of valid ACPI handles). However, there are more reasons
why it may be useful.
First, struct acpi_device pointers allow of much better type checking
than void pointers which are ACPI handles, so it should be more
difficult to write buggy code using modified struct acpi_dev_node
and the new macros. Second, the change should help to reduce (over
time) the number of places in which the result of ACPI_HANDLE() is
passed to acpi_bus_get_device() in order to obtain a pointer to the
struct acpi_device associated with the given "physical" device,
because now that pointer is returned by ACPI_COMPANION() directly.
Finally, the change should make it easier to write generic code that
will build both for CONFIG_ACPI set and unset without adding explicit
compiler directives to it.

Currently, devm_ managed memory only supports kzalloc.
Convert the devm_kzalloc implementation to devm_kmalloc and remove the
complete memset to 0 but still set the initial struct devres header and
whatever padding before data to 0.
Add the other normal alloc variants as static inlines with __GFP_ZERO
added to the gfp flag where appropriate:
devm_kzalloc
devm_kcalloc
devm_kmalloc_array
Add gfp.h to device.h for the newly added static inlines.
akpm: the current API forces us to replace kmalloc() with kzalloc() when
performing devm_ conversions. This adds a relatively minor overhead.
More significantly, it will defeat kmemcheck used-uninitialized checking,
and for a particular driver, losing used-uninitialised checking for their
core controlling data structures will significantly degrade kmemcheck
usefulness.

sysfs ns (namespace) implementation became more convoluted than
necessary while trying to hide ns information from visible interface.
The relatively recent attr ns support is a good example.
* attr ns tag is determined by sysfs_ops->namespace() callback while
dir tag is determined by kobj_type->namespace(). The placement is
arbitrary.
* Instead of performing operations with explicit ns tag, the namespace
callback is routed through sysfs_attr_ns(), sysfs_ops->namespace(),
class_attr_namespace(), class_attr->namespace(). It's not simpler
in any sense. The only thing this convolution does is traversing
the whole stack backwards.
The namespace callbacks are unncessary because the operations involved
are inherently synchronous. The information can be provided in in
straight-forward top-down direction and reversing that direction is
unnecessary and against basic design principles.
This backward interface is unnecessarily convoluted and hinders
properly separating out sysfs from driver model / kobject for proper
layering. This patch updates attr ns support such that
* sysfs_ops->namespace() and class_attr->namespace() are dropped.
* sysfs_{create|remove}_file_ns(), which take explicit @ns param, are
added and sysfs_{create|remove}_file() are now simple wrappers
around the ns aware functions.
* ns handling is dropped from sysfs_chmod_file(). Nobody uses it at
this point. sysfs_chmod_file_ns() can be added later if necessary.
* Explicit @ns is propagated through class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
and netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns().
* driver/net/bonding which is currently the only user of attr
namespace is updated to use netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
with @bh->net as the ns tag instead of using the namespace callback.
This patch should be an equivalent conversion without any functional
difference. It makes the code easier to follow, reduces lines of code
a bit and helps proper separation and layering.

device_hotplug_lock is held around the acpi_bus_trim() call in
acpi_scan_hot_remove() which generally removes devices (it removes
ACPI device objects at least, but it may also remove "physical"
device objects through .detach() callbacks of ACPI scan handlers).
Thus, potentially, device sysfs attributes are removed under that
lock and to remove those attributes it is necessary to hold the
s_active references of their directory entries for writing.
On the other hand, the execution of a .show() or .store() callback
from a sysfs attribute is carried out with that attribute's s_active
reference held for reading. Consequently, if any device sysfs
attribute that may be removed from within acpi_scan_hot_remove()
through acpi_bus_trim() has a .store() or .show() callback which
acquires device_hotplug_lock, the execution of that callback may
deadlock with the removal of the attribute. [Unfortunately, the
"online" device attribute of CPUs and memory blocks is one of them.]
To avoid such deadlocks, make all of the sysfs attribute callbacks
that need to lock device hotplug, for example store_online(), use
a special function, lock_device_hotplug_sysfs(), to lock device
hotplug and return the result of that function immediately if it is
not zero. This will cause the s_active reference of the directory
entry in question to be released and the syscall to be restarted
if device_hotplug_lock cannot be acquired.
[show_online() actually doesn't need to lock device hotplug, but
it is useful to serialize it with respect to device_offline() and
device_online() for the same device (in case user space attempts to
run them concurrently) which can be done with the help of
device_lock().]

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
remains the most active patch submitter.
To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the
freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
tasks a bit less heavy weight.
We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
and a bunch of cleanups all over.
Highlights:
- Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.
It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example,
if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
alternative and it had to be addressed.
However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one
handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
patient who's riding a bike.
So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
(a month ago), nobody has complained.
As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
code.
- Lighter weight freezing of tasks.
These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide
to report a failure is reduced too.
Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).
- cpufreq updates
First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The
fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
has identified the root cause.
Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu.
Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.
- ACPICA update
A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.
During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume
regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes
those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.
Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
Zhang Rui.
- cpuidle updates
New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.
Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
Lezcano.
- ACPI power management updates
Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
routine.
- ACPI documentation updates
Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
updated by Hanjun Guo.
- Assorted ACPI updates
We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
reverting commit 9f29ab11dd ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
the core.
A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
fixed on some systems.
A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
Mika Westerberg.
The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From
Jeff Wu.
Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.
The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.
Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
Kani.
- Assorted power management updates
The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
necessary any more after that modification).
The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
the "runtime idle" behavior change).
New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
(<keun-o.park@windriver.com>).
PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.
Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.
- devfreq updates
New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan.
Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham,
Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun.
- OMAP power management updates
Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) SmartReflex voltage control driver
updates from Andrii Tseglytskyi and Nishanth Menon."

In some cases, graceful hot-removal of devices is not possible,
although in principle the devices in question support hotplug.
For example, that may happen for the last CPU in the system or
for memory modules holding kernel memory.
In those cases it is nice to be able to check if the given device
can be gracefully hot-removed before triggering a removal procedure
that cannot be aborted or reversed. Unfortunately, however, the
kernel currently doesn't provide any support for that.
To address that deficiency, introduce support for offline and
online operations that can be performed on devices, respectively,
before a hot-removal and in case when it is necessary (or convenient)
to put a device back online after a successful offline (that has not
been followed by removal). The idea is that the offline will fail
whenever the given device cannot be gracefully removed from the
system and it will not be allowed to use the device after a
successful offline (until a subsequent online) in analogy with the
existing CPU offline/online mechanism.
For now, the offline and online operations are introduced at the
bus type level, as that should be sufficient for the most urgent use
cases (CPUs and memory modules). In the future, however, the
approach may be extended to cover some more complicated device
offline/online scenarios involving device drivers etc.
The lock_device_hotplug() and unlock_device_hotplug() functions are
introduced because subsequent patches need to put larger pieces of
code under device_hotplug_lock to prevent race conditions between
device offline and removal from happening.

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on workqueue side this time. The changes achieve
the followings.
- WQ_UNBOUND workqueues - the workqueues which are per-cpu - are
updated to be able to interface with multiple backend worker pools.
This involved a lot of churning but the end result seems actually
neater as unbound workqueues are now a lot closer to per-cpu ones.
- The ability to interface with multiple backend worker pools are
used to implement unbound workqueues with custom attributes.
Currently the supported attributes are the nice level and CPU
affinity. It may be expanded to include cgroup association in
future. The attributes can be specified either by calling
apply_workqueue_attrs() or through /sys/bus/workqueue/WQ_NAME/* if
the workqueue in question is exported through sysfs.
The backend worker pools are keyed by the actual attributes and
shared by any workqueues which share the same attributes. When
attributes of a workqueue are changed, the workqueue binds to the
worker pool with the specified attributes while leaving the work
items which are already executing in its previous worker pools
alone.
This allows converting custom worker pool implementations which
want worker attribute tuning to use workqueues. The writeback pool
is already converted in block tree and there are a couple others
are likely to follow including btrfs io workers.
- WQ_UNBOUND's ability to bind to multiple worker pools is also used
to make it NUMA-aware. Because there's no association between work
item issuer and the specific worker assigned to execute it, before
this change, using unbound workqueue led to unnecessary cross-node
bouncing and it couldn't be helped by autonuma as it requires tasks
to have implicit node affinity and workers are assigned randomly.
After these changes, an unbound workqueue now binds to multiple
NUMA-affine worker pools so that queued work items are executed in
the same node. This is turned on by default but can be disabled
system-wide or for individual workqueues.
Crypto was requesting NUMA affinity as encrypting data across
different nodes can contribute noticeable overhead and doing it
per-cpu was too limiting for certain cases and IO throughput could
be bottlenecked by one CPU being fully occupied while others have
idle cycles.
While the new features required a lot of changes including
restructuring locking, it didn't complicate the execution paths much.
The unbound workqueue handling is now closer to per-cpu ones and the
new features are implemented by simply associating a workqueue with
different sets of backend worker pools without changing queue,
execution or flush paths.
As such, even though the amount of change is very high, I feel
relatively safe in that it isn't likely to cause subtle issues with
basic correctness of work item execution and handling. If something
is wrong, it's likely to show up as being associated with worker pools
with the wrong attributes or OOPS while workqueue attributes are being
changed or during CPU hotplug.
While this creates more backend worker pools, it doesn't add too many
more workers unless, of course, there are many workqueues with unique
combinations of attributes. Assuming everything else is the same,
NUMA awareness costs an extra worker pool per NUMA node with online
CPUs.
There are also a couple things which are being routed outside the
workqueue tree.
- block tree pulled in workqueue for-3.10 so that writeback worker
pool can be converted to unbound workqueue with sysfs control
exposed. This simplifies the code, makes writeback workers
NUMA-aware and allows tuning nice level and CPU affinity via sysfs.
- The conversion to workqueue means that there's no 1:1 association
between a specific worker, which makes writeback folks unhappy as
they want to be able to tell which filesystem caused a problem from
backtrace on systems with many filesystems mounted. This is
resolved by allowing work items to set debug info string which is
printed when the task is dumped. As this change involves unifying
implementations of dump_stack() and friends in arch codes, it's
being routed through Andrew's -mm tree."

Now that devtmpfs is caring about uid/gid, we need to use the correct

properly for them.

Some drivers want to tell userspace what uid and gid should be used for
their device nodes, so allow that information to percolate through the
driver core to userspace in order to make this happen. This means that
some systems (i.e. Android and friends) will not need to even run a
udev-like daemon for their device node manager and can just rely in
devtmpfs fully, reducing their footprint even more.
