Here is the big char/misc driver patch pull request for 5.1-rc1. The largest thing by far is the new habanalabs driver for their AI accelerator chip. For now it is in the drivers/misc directory but will probably move to a new directory soon along with other drivers of this type. Other than that, just the usual set of individual driver updates and fixes. There's an "odd" merge in here from the DRM tree that they asked me to do as the MEI driver is starting to interact with the i915 driver, and it needed some coordination. All of those patches have been properly acked by the relevant subsystem maintainers. All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues, most for quite some time.

This option enables a transparent branch optimization that

|

conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
|

|
Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
|
|
scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
|
|
branches and include support for this optimization technique.
|
|
|
|
If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
|
|
the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
|
|
instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
|
|
nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
|
|
conditional block of instructions.
|
|
|
|
This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
|
|
of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
|
|
of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP

|
bool
|
|
help
|
|
Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
|
|
for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
|
|
inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
|
|
__arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
|
|
happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
|
|
particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
|
|
with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
|
|
store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
|
|
should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
|
|
hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
|
|
does, the use of the builtins is optional.
|
|
|
|
Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
|
|
instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
|
|
on architectures that don't have such instructions.

An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks

in vmalloc space. This means:
|

|
- vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
|
|
This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
|
|
|
|
- Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
|
|
vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
|
|
needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
|
|
unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
|
|
most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
|
|
are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
|
|
|
|
- If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
|
|
should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but

instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects

the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
