Pull devicetree changes from Grant Likely: "Updates to devicetree core code. This branch contains the following notable changes: - add reserved memory binding - make struct device_node a kobject and remove legacy /proc/device-tree - ePAPR conformance fixes - update in-kernel DTC copy to version v1.4.0 - preparatory changes for dynamic device tree overlays - minor bug fixes and documentation changes The most significant change in this branch is the conversion of struct device_node to be a kobject that is exposed via sysfs and removal of the old /proc/device-tree code. This simplifies the device tree handling code and tightens up the lifecycle on device tree nodes.

2014-02-21mm: add support for discard of unused ptesKonstantin Weitz
In a virtualized environment and given an appropriate interface the guest can mark pages as unused while they are free (for the s390 implementation see git commit 45e576b1c3d00206 "guest page hinting light"). For the host the unused state is a property of the pte. This patch adds the primitive 'pte_unused' and code to the host swap out handler so that pages marked as unused by all mappers are not swapped out but discarded instead, thus saving one IO for swap out and potentially another one for swap in.

2014-02-17mm: Use ptep/pmdp_set_numa() for updating _PAGE_NUMA bitAneesh Kumar K.V
Archs like ppc64 doesn't do tlb flush in set_pte/pmd functions when using a hash table MMU for various reasons (the flush is handled as part of the PTE modification when necessary). ppc64 thus doesn't implement flush_tlb_range for hash based MMUs. Additionally ppc64 require the tlb flushing to be batched within ptl locks. The reason to do that is to ensure that the hash page table is in sync with linux page table. We track the hpte index in linux pte and if we clear them without flushing hash and drop the ptl lock, we can have another cpu update the pte and can end up with duplicate entry in the hash table, which is fatal. We also want to keep set_pte_at simpler by not requiring them to do hash flush for performance reason. We do that by assuming that set_pte_at() is never *ever* called on a PTE that is already valid. This was the case until the NUMA code went in which broke that assumption. Fix that by introducing a new pair of helpers to set _PAGE_NUMA in a way similar to ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect(), with a generic implementation using set_pte_at() and a powerpc specific one using the appropriate mechanism needed to keep the hash table in sync.

2014-02-09bitops: Fix signedness of compile-time hweight implementationsPaul Walmsley
Enabling '-Wsign-compare' compiler warnings on code that includes include/linux/bitops.h can generate the following warning: In file included from include/linux/kernel.h:10:0, from <random filename>:48: include/linux/bitops.h: In function 'hweight_long': include/linux/bitops.h:77:26: error: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression [-Werror=sign-compare] (converted to an error with -Werror) This is due to the use of the logical negation operator '!' in the __const_hweight8 macro in include/asm-generic/bitops/const_hweight.h. The use of that operator here results in a signed value. Fix by explicitly casting the __const_hweight8 macro expansion to 'unsigned int'. While here, clean up several checkpatch.pl warnings.

It's based on a different tree than my -next branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next is based on -rc1) so I left it as a separate branch for your to pull. It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back. This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc. The fix however requires a small change in the generic code. It moves a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late...

2014-01-23asm/types.h: Remove include/asm-generic/int-l64.hGeert Uytterhoeven
Now all 64-bit architectures have been converted to int-ll64.h, we can remove int-l64.h in kernelspace. For backwards compatibility, alpha, ia64, mips64, and powerpc64 still use int-l64.h in userspace. This is the (reworked for UAPI) non-documentation part of more than two year old "asm/types.h: All architectures use int-ll64.h in kernelspace" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/13/104) Since <asm/types.h> (from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h) is used for both kernel and user space, include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h cannot just become include/asm-generic/types.h, as Arnd suggested.

2014-01-12arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release()Peter Zijlstra
A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(), even though there is no need to order prior stores against later loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way to make use of them. This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release() primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional expense on most architectures. In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference() and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code might be so replaced. [Changelog by PaulMck] Reviewed-by: "Paul E.

2014-01-12arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.hPeter Zijlstra
We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of asm-generic/barrier.h. Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier definitions and fills out the rest with defaults. There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to their unconventional nop() implementation.

2013-12-20mm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) supportKirill A. Shutemov
Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being a transparent huge-table entry. The code - introduced in commit 1998cc048901 ("mm: make madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it turns out that that function doesn't work correctly. pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal development systems would never actually trigger this. Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation, and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.

2013-12-18mm: fix TLB flush race between migration, and change_protection_rangeRik van Riel
There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and compaction on the other side. The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed. During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page. This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration code may come in, and migrate the page away. When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the process. This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible. All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush, or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions (SPARC). The basic race looks like this: CPU A CPU B CPU C load TLB entry make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA fault on entry read/write old page start migrating page change PTE/PMD to new page read/write old page [*] flush TLB reload TLB from new entry read/write new page lose data [*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point! The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm. This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

2013-12-17lib: introduce arch optimized hash libraryFrancesco Fusco
We introduce a new hashing library that is meant to be used in the contexts where speed is more important than uniformity of the hashed values. The hash library leverages architecture specific implementation to achieve high performance and fall backs to jhash() for the generic case. On Intel-based x86 architectures, the library can exploit the crc32l instruction, part of the Intel SSE4.2 instruction set, if the instruction is supported by the processor. This implementation is twice as fast as the jhash() implementation on an i7 processor. Additional architectures, such as Arm64 provide instructions for accelerating the computation of CRC, so they could be added as well in follow-up work.

2013-12-11sched: Remove PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED from generic codePeter Zijlstra
While hunting a preemption issue with Alexander, Ben noticed that the currently generic PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED stuff is horribly broken for load-store architectures. We currently rely on the IPI to fold TIF_NEED_RESCHED into PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED, but when this IPI lands while we already have a load for the preempt-count but before the store, the store will erase the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED change. The current preempt-count only works on load-store archs because interrupts are assumed to be completely balanced wrt their preempt_count fiddling; the previous preempt_count load will match the preempt_count state after the interrupt and therefore nothing gets lost. This patch removes the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED usage from generic code and pushes it into x86 arch code; the generic code goes back to relying on TIF_NEED_RESCHED. Boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on ppc64.

It is currently often possible in many GPIO drivers to request a GPIO line to be used as IRQ after calling gpio_to_irq() and, as the gpiolib is not aware of this, set the same line to output and start driving it, with undesired side effects. As it is a bogus usage scenario to request a line flagged as output to used as IRQ, we introduce APIs to let gpiolib track the use of a line as IRQ, and also set this flag from the userspace ABI. The API is symmetric so that lines can also be flagged from .irq_enable() and unflagged from IRQ by .irq_disable(). The debugfs file is altered so that we see if a line is reserved for IRQ.
