cb782cdd2f rapidio/tsi721: add PCIe MRRS override parameter
Add PCIe Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS) adjustment parameter to allow
users to override configuration register value set during PCIe bus
initialization.

Performance of Tsi721 device as PCIe bus master can be improved if MRRS
is set to its maximum value (4096 bytes).  Some platforms have
limitations for supported MRRS and therefore the default value should be
preserved, unless it is known that given platform supports full set of
MRRS values defined by PCI Express specification.

ea87b8e1f7 rapidio: remove unnecessary 0x prefixes before %pa extension uses
Patch series "RapidIO subsystem updates".

This set of patches contains RapidIO subsystem fixes and updates that
have been made since kernel v4.6.  The most significant update brings
changes related to the latest revision of RapidIO specification
(rev.3.x) and introduction of next generation of RapidIO switches by IDT
(RXS1632 and RXS2448).

This patch (of 13):

This is RapidIO part of the original patch submitted by Joe Perches.
(see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/3/5/19)

Since commit 3cab1e7112 ("lib/vsprintf: refactor duplicate code
to special_hex_number()") %pa uses have been output with a 0x prefix.

These 0x prefixes in the formats are unnecessary.

b6e8d4aa11 rapidio: add RapidIO channelized messaging driver
Add channelized messaging driver to support native RapidIO messaging
exchange between multiple senders/recipients on devices that use kernel
RapidIO subsystem services.

This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org
Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Prodrive
Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT.  Additional input was
received from other members of RapidIO.org.

The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which
exposes messaging capabilities of RapidIO endpoint devices (mports)
directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and
varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate.

This char mode device driver allows user-space applications to setup
messaging communication channels using single shared RapidIO messaging
mailbox.

By default this driver uses RapidIO MBOX_1 (MBOX_0 is reserved for use by
RIONET Ethernet emulation driver).

1730f14660 kexec: add restriction on kexec_load() segment sizes
I hit the following issue when run trinity in my system.  The kernel is
3.4 version, but mainline has the same issue.

The root cause is that the segment size is too large so the kerenl
spends too long trying to allocate a page.  Other cases will block until
the test case quits.  Also, OOM conditions will occur.

Call Trace:
  __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x14c/0x8f0
  alloc_pages_current+0xaf/0x120
  kimage_alloc_pages+0x10/0x60
  kimage_alloc_control_pages+0x5d/0x270
  machine_kexec_prepare+0xe5/0x6c0
  ? kimage_free_page_list+0x52/0x70
  sys_kexec_load+0x141/0x600
  ? vfs_write+0x100/0x180
  system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

The patch changes sanity_check_segment_list() to verify that the usage by
all segments does not exceed half of memory.

c025311596 kexec: allow kdump with crash_kexec_post_notifiers

needed if the kernel is loaded with crash_kexec_post_notifiers, because
panic notifiers are run before __crash_kexec() in that case, and this
Xen hook prevents its being called later.

address.

43546d8669 kexec: allow architectures to override boot mapping
kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system.  For
certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system
does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a
special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space.

To cater for these kinds of setups, we need to translate between the
boot view physical addresses and the normal kernel view physical
addresses.  This patch extracts the current transation points into
linux/kexec.h, and allows an architecture to override the functions.

Due to the translations required, we unfortunately end up with six
translation functions, which are reduced down to four that the
architecture can override.

physical on 32-bit architectures, so we need a wider type than "unsigned

phys_addr_t, thereby allowing it to be located above 4GB.

This makes no difference for kexec-tools, as they already assume a
64-bit type when reading from this file.

4caf961524 kexec: return error number directly
This is a cleanup patch to make kexec more clear to return error number
directly.  The variable result is useless, because there is no other
function's return value assignes to it.  So remove it.

7e7814180b signal: consolidate {TS,TLF}_RESTORE_SIGMASK code
In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in
ti->flags.  alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only),
tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations,
placing the flag in ti->status.

Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common
implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and
drop the custom implementations.

Additional architectures can opt in by removing their
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

e63e88bc53 nilfs2: move ioctl interface and disk layout to uapi separately
The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for
ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user
space programs.

This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the
file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h".  The following minor
changes are accompanied by this migration:

 - nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to
   nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure.
 - inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and
   nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

__nilfs_msg() formats a message like "NILFS (<device-name>): <message>",
prefixing it with a given log level, and terminates the statement with a
newline.  The "device-name" is optional to make it available in early
stages; it will be omitted if a NULL pointer is passed to super block
instance argument.  nilfs_msg() wraps __nilfs_msg() and is removed if
CONFIG_PRINTK is not set.

0036d1f7eb binfmt_elf: fix calculations for bss padding
A double-bug exists in the bss calculation code, where an overflow can
happen in the "last_bss - elf_bss" calculation, but vm_brk internally
aligns the argument, underflowing it, wrapping back around safe.  We
shouldn't depend on these bugs staying in sync, so this cleans up the
bss padding handling to avoid the overflow.

This moves the bss padzero() before the last_bss > elf_bss case, since
the zero-filling of the ELF_PAGE should have nothing to do with the
relationship of last_bss and elf_bss: any trailing portion should be
zeroed, and a zero size is already handled by padzero().

Then it handles the math on elf_bss vs last_bss correctly.  These need
to both be ELF_PAGE aligned to get the comparison correct, since that's
the expected granularity of the mappings.  Since elf_bss already had
alignment-based padding happen in padzero(), the "start" of the new
vm_brk() should be moved forward as done in the original code.  However,
since the "end" of the vm_brk() area will already become PAGE_ALIGNed in
vm_brk() then last_bss should get aligned here to avoid hiding it as a
side-effect.

Additionally makes a cosmetic change to the initial last_bss calculation
so it's easier to read in comparison to the load_addr calculation above
it (i.e.  the only difference is p_filesz vs p_memsz).

ed43c4e58a checkpatch: check signoff when reading stdin
Signoff was not checked if the filename is '-', indicating reading the
patch from stdin.  Commands such as the below would not warn about a
missing signoff, because the patch filename is '-'.  This change allows
checkpatch to warn about a missing signoff, even if the input filename
is '-', but only if the patch has a commit message.

  git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl -

A more common use of checkpatch with stdin is for piping git diff
through checkpatch.  The diff output would not contain a commit message,
and therefore it would not contain a signoff line.  For this common use
case, a warning should not be printed about the missing signoff.  With
this change we will only warn about a missing signoff if the input
contains a commit message.

  git diff | scripts/checkpatch.pl -

Before this patch, a workaround for the first command was to refer to
stdin by a name other than '-'.  The workaround is not an elegant
solution, because elsewhere checkpatch uses the fact that filename
equals '-', such as in setting '$vname' to 'Your patch' for stdin.  The
command below would report "/dev/stdin has style problems" instead of
"Your patch has style problems."

  git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl /dev/stdin

These are also possible single line uses that exceed the generic maximum
line length (typically 80 columns)

a098ecd2fa firmware: support loading into a pre-allocated buffer
Some systems are memory constrained but they need to load very large
firmwares.  The firmware subsystem allows drivers to request this
firmware be loaded from the filesystem, but this requires that the
entire firmware be loaded into kernel memory first before it's provided
to the driver.  This can lead to a situation where we map the firmware
twice, once to load the firmware into kernel memory and once to copy the
firmware into the final resting place.

This creates needless memory pressure and delays loading because we have
to copy from kernel memory to somewhere else.  Let's add a
request_firmware_into_buf() API that allows drivers to request firmware
be loaded directly into a pre-allocated buffer.  This skips the
intermediate step of allocating a buffer in kernel memory to hold the
firmware image while it's read from the filesystem.  It also requires
that drivers know how much memory they'll require before requesting the
firmware and negates any benefits of firmware caching because the
firmware layer doesn't manage the buffer lifetime.

For a 16MB buffer, about half the time is spent performing a memcpy from
the buffer to the final resting place.  I see loading times go from
0.081171 seconds to 0.047696 seconds after applying this patch.  Plus
the vmalloc pressure is reduced.

This is based on a patch from Vikram Mulukutla on codeaurora.org:

0e742e9275 firmware: provide infrastructure to make fw caching optional
Some low memory systems with complex peripherals cannot afford to have
the relatively large firmware images taking up valuable memory during
suspend and resume.  Change the internal implementation of
firmware_class to disallow caching based on a configurable option.  In
the near future, variants of request_firmware will take advantage of
this feature.
