Actually a nice symmetric startup/teardown pair which fits properly into
the state machine concept. In the long run we should be able to invoke
the startup callback for the boot CPU via the state machine and get
rid of the init function which invokes it on the boot CPU.
Note: This comes actually before the perf hardware callbacks. In the notifier
model the hardware callbacks have a higher priority than the core
callback. But that's solely for CPU offline so that hardware migration of
events happens before the core is notified about the outgoing CPU.
With the symetric state array model we have the following ordering:
UP: core -> hardware
DOWN: hardware -> core

More or less straightforward, although this driver sports some very
interesting SMP setup code. Regarding the callback ordering, this
deleted comment is interesting:
... the GIC needs to be up before the ARM generic timers.
That comment is half baken as the same requirement is true for perf.

We switched the hotplug machinery to smpboot threads. Early registration of
hotplug callbacks, i.e. from do_pre_smp_initcalls(), happens before the
threads are initialized. Instead of moving the thread init, we simply handle
it in the hotplug code itself and invoke the function directly.

scribble
Xiaolong Ye reported lock debug warnings triggered by the following commit:
8de4a0066106 ("perf/x86: Convert the core to the hotplug state machine")
The bug is the following: the cpuhp_bp_states[] array is cut short when
CONFIG_SMP=n, but the dynamically registered callbacks are stored nevertheless
and happily scribble outside of the array bounds...
We need to store them in case that the state is unregistered so we can invoke
the teardown function. That's independent of CONFIG_SMP. Make sure the array
is large enough.

The well-spotted fallocate undo fix is good in most cases, but not when
fallocate failed on the very first page. index 0 then passes lend -1
to shmem_undo_range(), and that has two bad effects: (a) that it will
undo every fallocation throughout the file, unrestricted by the current
range; but more importantly (b) it can cause the undo to hang, because
lend -1 is treated as truncation, which makes it keep on retrying until
every page has gone, but those already fully instantiated will never go
away. Big thank you to xfstests generic/269 which demonstrates this.

Mathieu Desnoyers reported that the STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD macro
wasn't working with the lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode() function in
the lttng-modules code.
Usually the relocation created by STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD creates a
reference to a section symbol like this:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
000000000000000000 X86_64_64 000000000000000000 +3136 .text
But in this case it created a reference to a function symbol:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
000000000000000000 X86_64_64 0x00000000000003a0 +0 lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode
To be honest I have no idea what causes gcc to decide to do one over the
other. But both are valid ELF, so add support for the function symbol.

As of Xen 4.7 PV CPUID doesn't expose either of CPUID[1].ECX[7] and
CPUID[0x80000007].EDX[7] anymore, causing the driver to fail to load on
both Intel and AMD systems. Doing any kind of hardware capability
checks in the driver as a prerequisite was wrong anyway: With the
hypervisor being in charge, all such checking should be done by it. If
ACPI data gets uploaded despite some missing capability, the hypervisor
is free to ignore part or all of that data.
Ditch the entire check_prereq() function, and do the only valid check
(xen_initial_domain()) in the caller in its place.

xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() needs to track whether a transaction is
open. For XS_TRANSACTION_START messages it calls transaction_start()
and for XS_TRANSACTION_END messages it calls transaction_end().
If sending an XS_TRANSACTION_START message fails or responds with an
an error, the transaction is not open and transaction_end() must be
called.
If sending an XS_TRANSACTION_END message fails, the transaction is
still open, but if an error response is returned the transaction is
closed.
Commit 027bd7e89906 ("xen/xenbus: Avoid synchronous wait on XenBus
stalling shutdown/restart") introduced a regression where failed
XS_TRANSACTION_START messages were leaving the transaction open. This
can cause problems with suspend (and migration) as all transactions
must be closed before suspending.
It appears that the problematic change was added accidentally, so just
remove it.

(interface violating) assumption that the setprocattr buffer was always
a single page was violated.
The size test is not strictly speaking needed as proc_pid_attr_write()
will reject anything larger, but for the sake of robustness we can keep
it in.
SMACK and SELinux look safe to me, but somebody else should probably
have a look just in case.
Based on original patch from Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com>
modified for the case that apparmor provides null termination.

This reverts commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87.
It fixed a local root exploit but also introduced a dependency on
the lower file system implementing an mmap operation just to open a file,
which is a bit of a heavy hammer. The right fix is to have mmap depend
on the existence of the mmap handler instead.

Pull block IO fixes from Jens Axboe:
"Three small fixes that have been queued up and tested for this series:
- A bug fix for xen-blkfront from Bob Liu, fixing an issue with
incomplete requests during migration.
- A fix for an ancient issue in retrieving the IO priority of a
different PID than self, preventing that task from going away while
we access it. From Omar.
- A writeback fix from Tahsin, fixing a case where we'd call ihold()
with a zero ref count inode"

If we take an exception while at EL1, the exception handler inherits
the original context's addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO values. To be consistent
always reset addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO on (re-)entry to EL1. This
prevents accidental re-use of the original context's addr_limit.
Based on a similar patch for arm from Russell King.

Pull the clockevents/clocksource tree from Daniel Lezcano:
- Convert the clocksource-probe init functions to return a value in order to
prepare the consolidation of the drivers using the DT. It is a big patchset
but went through 01.org (kbuild bot), linux next and kernel-ci (continuous
integration) (Daniel Lezcano)
- Fix a bad error handling by returning the right value for cadence_ttc
(Christophe Jaillet)
- Fix typo in the Kconfig for the Samsung pwm (Alexandre Belloni)
- Change functions to static for armada-370-xp and digicolor (Ben Dooks)
- Add support for the rk3399 SoC timer by adding bindings and a slight
change in the base address. Take the opportunity to add the DYNIRQ flag
(Huang Tao)
- Fix endian accessors for the Samsung pwm timer (Matthew Leach)
- Add Oxford Semiconductor RPS Dual Timer driver (Neil Armstrong)
- Add a kernel parameter to swich on/off the event stream feature of the arch
arm timer (Will Deacon)

Inability to locate a user mode specified transaction ID should not
lead to a kernel crash. For other than XS_TRANSACTION_START also
don't issue anything to xenbus if the specified ID doesn't match that

The existing optimization for same expiry time in mod_timer() checks whether
the timer expiry time is the same as the new requested expiry time. In the old
timer wheel implementation this does not take the slack batching into account,
neither does the new implementation evaluate whether the new expiry time will
requeue the timer to the same bucket.
To optimize that, we can calculate the resulting bucket and check if the new
expiry time is different from the current expiry time. This calculation
happens outside the base lock held region. If the resulting bucket is the same
we can avoid taking the base lock and requeueing the timer.
If the timer needs to be requeued then we have to check under the base lock
whether the base time has changed between the lockless calculation and taking
the lock. If it has changed we need to recalculate under the lock.
This optimization takes effect for timers which are enqueued into the less
granular wheel levels (1 and above). With a simple test case the functionality
has been verified:
Before After
Match: 5.5% 86.6%
Requeue: 94.5% 13.4%
Recalc: <0.01%
In the non optimized case the timer is requeued in 94.5% of the cases. With
the index optimization in place the requeue rate drops to 13.4%. The case
where the lockless index calculation has to be redone is less than 0.01%.
With a real world test case (networking) we observed the following changes:
Before After
Match: 97.8% 99.7%
Requeue: 2.2% 0.3%
Recalc: <0.001%
That means two percent fewer lock/requeue/unlock operations done in one of
the hot path use cases of timers.
