3648dc6d27 NFC: st-nci: Add ese-present/uicc-present dts properties
In order to align with st21nfca, dts configuration properties
ese_present and uicc_present are made available in st-nci driver.

So far, in early development firmware, because
nci_nfcee_mode_set(DISABLE) was not supported we had to try to
enable it during the secure element discovery phase.

After several trials on commercial and qualified firmware it appears
that nci_nfcee_mode_set(ENABLE) and nci_nfcee_mode_set(DISABLE) are
properly supported.

Such feature also help us to eventually save some time (~5ms) when
only one secure element is connected.

f8085bbada mmc: dw_mmc-rockchip: dt-binding: Add tuning related things
Add ciu_drive, ciu_sample clocks and default-sample-phase. This will later
be used by tuning code.

We do not touch ciu_drive (and by extension define default-drive-phase).
Drive phase is mostly used to define minimum hold times, while one could
write some code to determine what phase meets the minimum hold time
(ex 10 degrees) this will not work with the current clock phase framework
(which floors angles, so we'll get 0 deg, and there's no way to know what
resolution the floors happen at). We assume that the default drive angles
set by the hardware are good enough.

9eadcc0581 mmc: core: Remove MMC_CLKGATE
MMC_CLKGATE was once invented to save power by gating the bus clock at
request inactivity. At that time it served its purpose. The modern way to
deal with power saving for these scenarios, is by using runtime PM.

Nowadays, several host drivers have deployed runtime PM, but for those
that haven't and which still cares power saving at request inactivity,
it's certainly time to deploy runtime PM as it has been around for several
years now.

To simplify code to mmc core and thus decrease maintenance efforts, this
patch removes all code related to MMC_CLKGATE.

 some profiling and speed improvements. Also in dwc3, John Youn from
 Synopsys added support for their new DWC USB3.1 IP Core and the HAPS
 platform which can be used to validate it.
 
 A series of patches from Robert Baldyga cleaned up uses of
 ep->driver_data as a flag for "claimed endpoint" in favor of the new
 ep->claimed flag.
 
 Sudip Mukherjee fixed a ton of really old problems on the amd5536udc
 driver. That should make a few people happy.
 
 Heikki Krogerus worked on converting dwc3 to the unified device property
 interface.
 
 Together with these, there's a ton of non-critical fixes, typos and
 stuff like that.

4f41b1c58a tcp: use RACK to detect losses
This patch implements the second half of RACK that uses the the most
recent transmit time among all delivered packets to detect losses.

tcp_rack_mark_lost() is called upon receiving a dubious ACK.
It then checks if an not-yet-sacked packet was sent at least
"reo_wnd" prior to the sent time of the most recently delivered.
If so the packet is deemed lost.

The "reo_wnd" reordering window starts with 1msec for fast loss
detection and changes to min-RTT/4 when reordering is observed.
We found 1msec accommodates well on tiny degree of reordering
(<3 pkts) on faster links. We use min-RTT instead of SRTT because
reordering is more of a path property but SRTT can be inflated by
self-inflicated congestion. The factor of 4 is borrowed from the
delayed early retransmit and seems to work reasonably well.

Since RACK is still experimental, it is now used as a supplemental
loss detection on top of existing algorithms. It is only effective
after the fast recovery starts or after the timeout occurs. The
fast recovery is still triggered by FACK and/or dupack threshold
instead of RACK.

We introduce a new sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_recovery for future
experiments of loss recoveries. For now RACK can be disabled by
setting it to 0.

f672258391 tcp: track min RTT using windowed min-filter
Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum RTT of a
data stream over some measurement window. It uses constant space
and constant time per update. Yet it almost always delivers
the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all
the data in the window. The measurement window is tunable via
sysctl.net.ipv4.tcp_min_rtt_wlen with a default value of 5 minutes.

The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
over the window.

Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
it has no value - the new min is less than everything else in the
window by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh
on every new min and overwrites the 2nd & 3rd choices. The same
property holds for the 2nd & 3rd best.

Therefore we have to maintain two invariants to maximize the
information in the samples, one on values (1st.v <= 2nd.v <=
3rd.v) and the other on times (now-win <=1st.t <= 2nd.t <= 3rd.t <=
now). These invariants determine the structure of the code

The RTT input to the windowed filter is the minimum RTT measured
from ACK or SACK, or as the last resort from TCP timestamps.

The accessor tcp_min_rtt() returns the minimum RTT seen in the
window. ~0U indicates it is not available. The minimum is 1usec
even if the true RTT is below that.

26fb342c73 ipconfig: send Client-identifier in DHCP requests
A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP
addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of
parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to
identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies
a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct
parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is
currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id,
only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can
not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available
such as when the root filesystem is on NFS.

This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type,
client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to
identify itself to the server.

b4c3fcb3c7 misc: sram: extend usage of reserved partitions
This change adds functionality to operate on reserved SRAM partitions
described in device tree file. Two partition properties are added,
"pool" and "export", the first one allows to share a specific partition
for usage by a kernel consumer in the same manner as it is done for
the whole SRAM device, and "export" property provides access to some
SRAM area from userspace over sysfs interface. Practically it is
possible to specify both properties for an SRAM partition, however
simultaneous access from a kernel consumer and from userspace is not
serialized, but still the combination may be useful for debugging
purpose.

The change opens the following scenarios of SRAM usage:
* updates in a particular SRAM area specified by offset and size are
  done by bootloader, then this information is utilized by the kernel,
* a particular SRAM area is rw accessed from userspace, the stored
  data is persistent on soft reboots,
* a device driver secures SRAM area for its purposes,
* etc.

Note, strictly speaking the added optional properties describe policy
of SRAM usage, rather than hardware, but here the policy mostly
resembles flash partitions in devicetree, which is undoubtedly
a very popular option but it does not describe hardware.

  - add spi support.
 * mcp4531 digitial potentiometer driver.
 * Measurement Specialties set of drivers with a core library module providing

  - ms8607 temperature, pressure and humidty sensor
  - ms5637 temperature and pressure sensor
  - htu21 temperature and humidity sensor
  - tsys02d temperature sensor

b531566e4d Docs: dt: Add PCI MSI map bindings
Currently msi-parent is used by a few bindings to describe the
relationship between a PCI root complex and a single MSI controller, but
this property does not have a generic binding document.

Additionally, msi-parent is insufficient to describe more complex
relationships between MSI controllers and devices under a root complex,
where devices may be able to target multiple MSI controllers, or where
MSI controllers use (non-probeable) sideband information to distinguish
devices.

This patch adds a generic binding for mapping PCI devices to MSI
controllers. This document covers msi-parent, and a new msi-map property
(specific to PCI*) which may be used to map devices (identified by their
Requester ID) to sideband data for each MSI controller that they may
target.

suitable behaviour for ICMP redirect messages generated by VRRP routers.
However RFC 5798 section 8.1.1 states:

    The IPv4 source address of an ICMP redirect should be the address
    that the end-host used when making its next-hop routing decision.

while said commit used the generating packet destination
address, which do not match the above and in most cases leads to
no redirect packets to be generated.

6e19bc4b70 nl80211: allow BSS data to include CLOCK_BOOTTIME timestamp
For location and connectivity services, userspace would often like
to know the time when the BSS was last seen. The current "last seen"
value is calculated in a way that makes it less useful, especially
if the system suspended in the meantime.

Add the ability for the driver to report a real CLOCK_BOOTTIME stamp
that can then be reported to userspace (if present).

Drivers wishing to use this must be converted to the new API to call
cfg80211_inform_bss_data() or cfg80211_inform_bss_frame_data(). They
need to ensure the reported value is accurate enough even when the
frame might have been buffered in the device (e.g. firmware.)

e2ca690b65 ipv4/icmp: redirect messages can use the ingress daddr as source
This patch allows configuring how the source address of ICMP
redirect messages is selected; by default the old behaviour is
retained, while setting icmp_redirects_use_orig_daddr force the
usage of the destination address of the packet that caused the
redirect.

The new behaviour fits closely the RFC 5798 section 8.1.1, and fix the
following scenario:

Two machines are set up with VRRP to act as routers out of a subnet,
they have IPs x.x.x.1/24 and x.x.x.2/24, with VRRP holding on to
x.x.x.254/24.

If a host in said subnet needs to get an ICMP redirect from the VRRP
router, i.e. to reach a destination behind a different gateway, the
source IP in the ICMP redirect is chosen as the primary IP on the
interface that the packet arrived at, i.e. x.x.x.1 or x.x.x.2.

The host will then ignore said redirect, due to RFC 1122 section 3.2.2.2,
and will continue to use the wrong next-op.

0f96a99dab efi: Add "efi_fake_mem" boot option
This patch introduces new boot option named "efi_fake_mem".
By specifying this parameter, you can add arbitrary attribute
to specific memory range.
This is useful for debugging of Address Range Mirroring feature.

For example, if "efi_fake_mem=2G@4G:0x10000,2G@0x10a0000000:0x10000"
is specified, the original (firmware provided) EFI memmap will be
updated so that the specified memory regions have
EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE attribute (0x10000):

 <original>
   efi: mem36: [Conventional Memory|  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x0000000100000000-0x00000020a0000000) (129536MB)

 <updated>

by the snapshot device's status.  Older userspace (e.g. lvm2) does not

Fix this incompatibility by requiring newer userspace code, that can
cope with "Overflow", request the persistent store with overflow support
by using "PO" (Persistent with Overflow) for the snapshot store type.

Russell noted that "the TWD local timers are unable to wake up the CPU

However, some platforms do not stop the TWD block in low-power mode,
and can thus use the TWD timer in one-shot mode, without setting up

Make the driver check for the "always-on" boolean property, and set

095777c417 locktorture: Support rtmutex torturing
Real time mutexes is one of the few general primitives
that we do not have in locktorture. Address this -- a few
considerations:

o To spice things up, enable competing thread(s) to become
rt, such that we can stress different prio boosting paths
in the rtmutex code. Introduce a ->task_boost callback,
only used by rtmutex-torturer. Tasks will boost/deboost
around every 50k (arbitrarily) lock/unlock operations.

o Hold times are similar to what we have for other locks:
only occasionally having longer hold times (per ~200k ops).
So we roughly do two full rt boost+deboosting ops with
short hold times.

b672adf8cf documentation: Catch up list of torture_type options
This commit rids the documentation of long-obsolete torture_type options
such as rcu_sync and adds new ones such as tasks.  Also add verbiage
noting the fact that rcutorture now concurrently tests the asynchrounous,
synchronous, expedited synchronous, and polling grace-period primitives.

2c4ac34bc2 documentation: Correct doc to use rcu_dereference_protected
As there is lots of misinformation and outdated information on the
Internet about nearly all topics related to the kernel, I thought it
would be best if I based my RCU code on the guidelines of the examples
in the Documentation/ tree of the latest kernel. One thing that stuck
out when reading the whatisRCU.txt document was, "interesting how we
don't need any function to dereference rcu protected pointers when doing
updates if a lock is held. I wonder how static analyzers will work with
that." Then, a few weeks later, upon discovering sparse's __rcu support,
I ran it over my code, and lo and behold, things weren't done right.
Examining other RCU usages in the kernel reveal consistent usage of
rcu_dereference_protected, passing in lockdep_is_held as the
conditional. So, this patch adds that idiom to the documentation, so
that others ahead of me won't endure the same exercise.

da873def8d documentation: Call out slow consoles as cause of stall warnings
The Linux kernel outputs copious text during boot, and a slow serial
console can result in stall warnings, particularly when messages are
printed with interrupts disabled.  This commit adds this to the list
of causes of RCU CPU stall warning messages.
