2013-09-25sched, idle: Fix the idle polling state logicPeter Zijlstra
Mike reported that commit 7d1a9417 ("x86: Use generic idle loop") regressed several workloads and caused excessive reschedule interrupts. The patch in question failed to notice that the x86 code had an inverted sense of the polling state versus the new generic code (x86: default polling, generic: default !polling). Fix the two prominent x86 mwait based idle drivers and introduce a few new generic polling helpers (fixing the wrong smp_mb__after_clear_bit usage). Also switch the idle routines to using tif_need_resched() which is an immediate TIF_NEED_RESCHED test as opposed to need_resched which will end up being slightly different.

2013-09-25x86: Use asm goto to implement better modify_and_test() functionsPeter Zijlstra
Linus suggested using asm goto to get rid of the typical SETcc + TEST instruction pair -- which also clobbers an extra register -- for our typical modify_and_test() functions. Because asm goto doesn't allow output fields it has to include an unconditinal memory clobber when it changes a memory variable to force a reload. Luckily all atomic ops already imply a compiler barrier to go along with their memory barrier semantics.

2013-09-20sched/balancing: Consider max cost of idle balance per sched domainJason Low
In this patch, we keep track of the max cost we spend doing idle load balancing for each sched domain. If the avg time the CPU remains idle is less then the time we have already spent on idle balancing + the max cost of idle balancing in the sched domain, then we don't continue to attempt the balance. We also keep a per rq variable, max_idle_balance_cost, which keeps track of the max time spent on newidle load balances throughout all its domains so that we can determine the avg_idle's max value. By using the max, we avoid overrunning the average. This further reduces the chance we attempt balancing when the CPU is not idle for longer than the cost to balance.

2013-09-13MIPS: DECstation I/O ASIC DMA interrupt handling fixMaciej W. Rozycki
This change complements commit d0da7c002f7b2a93582187a9e3f73891a01d8ee4 and brings clear_ioasic_irq back, renaming it to clear_ioasic_dma_irq at the same time, to make I/O ASIC DMA interrupts functional. Unlike ordinary I/O ASIC interrupts DMA interrupts need to be deasserted by software by writing 0 to the respective bit in I/O ASIC's System Interrupt Register (SIR), similarly to how CP0.Cause.IP0 and CP0.Cause.IP1 bits are handled in the CPU (the difference is SIR DMA interrupt bits are R/W0C so there's no need for an RMW cycle). Otherwise the handler is reentered over and over again. The only current user is the DEC LANCE Ethernet driver and its extremely uncommon DMA memory error handler that does not care when exactly the interrupt is cleared. Anticipating the use of DMA interrupts by the Zilog SCC driver this change however exports clear_ioasic_dma_irq for device drivers to choose the right application-specific sequence to clear the request explicitly rather than calling it implicitly in the .irq_eoi handler of `struct irq_chip'. Previously these interrupts were cleared in the .end handler of the said structure, before it was removed. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

2013-09-13MIPS: DECstation HRT initialization rearrangementMaciej W. Rozycki
Not all I/O ASIC versions have the free-running counter implemented, an early revision used in the 5000/1xx models aka 3MIN and 4MIN did not have it. Therefore we cannot unconditionally use it as a clock source. Fortunately if not implemented its register slot has a fixed value so it is enough if we check for the value at the end of the calibration period being the same as at the beginning. This also means we need to look for another high-precision clock source on the systems affected. The 5000/1xx can have an R4000SC processor installed where the CP0 Count register can be used as a clock source. Unfortunately all the R4k DECstations suffer from the missed timer interrupt on CP0 Count reads erratum, so we cannot use the CP0 timer as a clock source and a clock event both at a time. However we never need an R4k clock event device because all DECstations have a DS1287A RTC chip whose periodic interrupt can be used as a clock source. This gives us the following four configuration possibilities for I/O ASIC DECstations: 1. No I/O ASIC counter and no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/1xx (3MIN). 2. No I/O ASIC counter but the CP0 timer, i.e. R4k 5000/150 (4MIN). 3. The I/O ASIC counter but no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/240 (3MAX+). 4. The I/O ASIC counter and the CP0 timer, e.g. R4k 5000/260 (4MAX+). For #1 and #2 this change stops the I/O ASIC free-running counter from being installed as a clock source of a 0Hz frequency. For #2 it also arranges for the CP0 timer to be used as a clock source rather than a clock event device, because having an accurate wall clock is more important than a high-precision interval timer. For #3 there is no change. For #4 the change makes the I/O ASIC free-running counter installed as a clock source so that the CP0 timer can be used as a clock event device. Unfortunately the use of the CP0 timer as a clock event device relies on a succesful completion of c0_compare_interrupt. That never happens, because while waiting for a CP0 Compare interrupt to happen the function spins in a loop reading the CP0 Count register. This makes the CP0 Count erratum trigger reliably causing the interrupt waited for to be lost in all cases. As a result #4 resorts to using the CP0 timer as a clock source as well, just as #2. However we want to keep this separate arrangement in case (hope) c0_compare_interrupt is eventually rewritten such that it avoids the erratum. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

2013-09-12x86: finish user fault error path with fatal signalJohannes Weiner
The x86 fault handler bails in the middle of error handling when the task has a fatal signal pending. For a subsequent patch this is a problem in OOM situations because it relies on pagefault_out_of_memory() being called even when the task has been killed, to perform proper per-task OOM state unwinding. Shortcutting the fault like this is a rather minor optimization that saves a few instructions in rare cases. Just remove it for user-triggered faults. Use the opportunity to split the fault retry handling from actual fault errors and add locking documentation that reads suprisingly similar to ARM's.

2013-09-12arch: mm: remove obsolete init OOM protectionJohannes Weiner
The memcg code can trap tasks in the context of the failing allocation until an OOM situation is resolved. They can hold all kinds of locks (fs, mm) at this point, which makes it prone to deadlocking. This series converts memcg OOM handling into a two step process that is started in the charge context, but any waiting is done after the fault stack is fully unwound. Patches 1-4 prepare architecture handlers to support the new memcg requirements, but in doing so they also remove old cruft and unify out-of-memory behavior across architectures. Patch 5 disables the memcg OOM handling for syscalls, readahead, kernel faults, because they can gracefully unwind the stack with -ENOMEM. OOM handling is restricted to user triggered faults that have no other option. Patch 6 reworks memcg's hierarchical OOM locking to make it a little more obvious wth is going on in there: reduce locked regions, rename locking functions, reorder and document. Patch 7 implements the two-part OOM handling such that tasks are never trapped with the full charge stack in an OOM situation. This patch: Back before smart OOM killing, when faulting tasks were killed directly on allocation failures, the arch-specific fault handlers needed special protection for the init process. Now that all fault handlers call into the generic OOM killer (see commit 609838cfed97: "mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page fault handlers"), which already provides init protection, the arch-specific leftovers can be removed.

Also included are few small devicetree updates for sunxi, since it enables me to use one of their newer boards (cubieboard2) for additional test coverage. The support for that SoC is new for 3.12, so there's no exposure to new regressions due to it" * tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: ARM: dts: sun7i: olinuxino-micro: Enable the EMAC ARM: dts: sun7i: cubieboard2: Enable the EMAC ARM: dts: sun7i: Add the muxing options for the EMAC ARM: dts: sun7i: Enable the Ethernet in the A20 i2c: davinci: Fix bad dev_get_platdata() conversion ARM: vexpress: allow dcscb and tc2_pm in a combined ARMv6+v7 build ARM: shmobile: lager: Do not use register_type field of struct sh_eth_plat_data ARM: pxa: ssp: Check return values from phandle lookups ARM: PCI: versatile: Fix SMAP register offsets ARM: PCI: versatile: Fix PCI I/O ARM: PCI: versatile: Fix map_irq function to match hardware ARM: ep93xx: Don't use modem interface on the second UART ARM: shmobile: r8a7779: Update early timer initialisation order

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King: "Just two fixes here - one for the recent addition of Neon stuff which causes problems when this is built as a module. The other was one spotted by Olof with the fixed-HZ stuff. Last patch (which is at the very top) is not a fix per-se, but an almost-end-of-merge window sorting of the select symbols in arch/arm/Kconfig to keep them as akpm would like to reduce unnecessary conflicts. I've also taken the liberty this time to add a comment at the end to discourage the endless "add the next select to the bottom of a nicely sorted list" syndrome" * 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm: ARM: sort arch/arm/Kconfig ARM: fix forced-HZ values ARM: 7835/2: fix modular build of xor_blocks() with NEON enabled

Keep arch/arm/Kconfig select statements sorted alphabetically. I've added a comment at the bottom of the main bank for CONFIG_ARM to this effect so hopefully this will keep things more in order. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
