Both sysfs-bus-mdio and sysfs-class-net-phydev contain the same
duplication information. There is not currently any MDIO bus specific
attribute, but there are PHY device (struct phy_device) specific
attributes. Use the more precise description from sysfs-bus-mdio and
carry that over to sysfs-class-net-phydev.

Pull x86 MDS mitigations from Thomas Gleixner:
"Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) is a hardware vulnerability
which allows unprivileged speculative access to data which is
available in various CPU internal buffers. This new set of misfeatures
has the following CVEs assigned:
CVE-2018-12126 MSBDS Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12130 MFBDS Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12127 MLPDS Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling
CVE-2019-11091 MDSUM Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory
MDS attacks target microarchitectural buffers which speculatively
forward data under certain conditions. Disclosure gadgets can expose
this data via cache side channels.
Contrary to other speculation based vulnerabilities the MDS
vulnerability does not allow the attacker to control the memory target
address. As a consequence the attacks are purely sampling based, but
as demonstrated with the TLBleed attack samples can be postprocessed
successfully.
The mitigation is to flush the microarchitectural buffers on return to
user space and before entering a VM. It's bolted on the VERW
instruction and requires a microcode update. As some of the attacks
exploit data structures shared between hyperthreads, full protection
requires to disable hyperthreading. The kernel does not do that by
default to avoid breaking unattended updates.
The mitigation set comes with documentation for administrators and a
deeper technical view"

Convert livepatch documentation to ReST format. The changes
are mostly trivial, as the documents are already on a good
shape. Just a few markup changes are needed for Sphinx to
properly parse the docs.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- The in-file TOC becomes a comment, in order to skip it from the
output, as Sphinx already generates an index there.
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Pull staging / IIO driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big staging and iio driver update for 5.2-rc1.
Lots of tiny fixes all over the staging and IIO driver trees here,
along with some new IIO drivers.
The "counter" subsystem was added in here as well, as it is needed by
the IIO drivers and subsystem.
Also we ended up deleting two drivers, making this pull request remove
a few hundred thousand lines of code, always a nice thing to see. Both
of the drivers removed have been replaced with "real" drivers in their
various subsystem directories, and they will be coming to you from
those locations during this merge window.
There are some core vt/selection changes in here, that was due to some
cleanups needed for the speakup fixes. Those have all been acked by
the various subsystem maintainers (i.e. me), so those are ok.
We also added a few new drivers, for some odd hardware, giving new
developers plenty to work on with basic coding style cleanups to come
in the near future.
Other than that, nothing unusual here.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

should be fixed up soon"

I am adding them in order to support a new Chrome OS device,

Many nvmem providers are not very keen on having default sysfs
nvmem entry, as most of the usecases for them are inside kernel
itself. And in some cases read/writes to some areas in nvmem are
restricted and trapped at secure monitor level, so accessing them
from userspace would result in board reboots.
This patch adds new NVMEM_SYSFS Kconfig to make binary sysfs entry
an optional one. This provision will give more flexibility to users.
This patch also moves existing sysfs code to a new file so that its

CCGx has two copies of the firmware in addition to the bootloader.
If the device is running FW1, FW2 can be updated with the new version.
Dual firmware mode allows the CCG device to stay in a PD contract and
support USB PD and Type-C functionality while a firmware update is in
progress.
First we read the currently flashed firmware version of both
primary and secondary firmware and then compare it with
version of firmware file to determine if flashing is required.
Command framework is added to support sending commands to CCGx
controller. We wait for response after sending the command and then
read the response from RAB_RESPONSE register.
Below commands are supported,
- ENTER_FLASHING
- RESET
- PDPORT_ENABLE
- JUMP_TO_BOOT
- FLASH_ROW_RW
- VALIDATE_FW
Command specific mutex lock is also added to sync between driver
and user threads.
PD port number information is added which is required while sending
PD_PORT_ENABLE command

The behaviour, by default, to not deselect after each transfer is
unsafe when there is a device with an address that conflicts with
another device on another mux on the same parent bus, and it
may not be convenient to use devicetree to set the deselect mux,
e.g. when running on x86_64 when ACPI is used to discover most of the
device hierarchy.
Therefore, provide the ability to set the idle state behaviour using a
new sysfs file, idle_state as a complement to the method of
instantiating the device via sysfs. The possible behaviours are
disconnect, i.e. to deselect all channels from the mux, as-is (the
default), i.e. leave the last channel selected, and set a
predetermined channel.
The current behaviour of leaving the channel as-is after each
transaction is preserved.

As part of Chrome OS's FAFT (Fully Automated Firmware Testing)
tests, we need to ensure that the H1 chip is properly setting
some GPIO lines. The h1_gpio attribute exposes the state
of the lines:
- ENTRY_TO_FACT_MODE in BIT(0)
- SPI_CHROME_SEL in BIT(1)
There are two reasons that I am exposing this in debugfs,
and not as a GPIO:
1. This is only useful for testing, so end users shouldn't ever
care about this. In fact, if it passes the tests, then the value of
h1_gpio will always be 2, so it would be really uninteresting for users.
2. This GPIO is not connected to, controlled by, or really even related
to the AP. The GPIO runs between the EC and the H1 security chip.
Changes in v4:
- Use "0x02x\n" instead of "02x\n" for format string
- Use DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE()
- Add documentation
Changes in v3:
- Fix documentation to correspond with formatting change in v2.
Changes in v2:
- Zero out the unused fields in the request.
- Format result as "%02x\n" instead of as a decimal.

The current API for the wilco EC mailbox interface is bad.
It assumes that most messages sent to the EC follow a similar structure,
with a command byte in MBOX[0], followed by a junk byte, followed by
actual data. This doesn't happen in several cases, such as setting the
RTC time, using the raw debugfs interface, and reading or writing
properties such as the Peak Shift policy (this last to be submitted soon).
Similarly for the response message from the EC, the current interface
assumes that the first byte of data is always 0, and the second byte
is unused. However, in both setting and getting the RTC time, in the
debugfs interface, and for reading and writing properties, this isn't
true.
The current way to resolve this is to use WILCO_EC_FLAG_RAW* flags to
specify when and when not to skip these initial bytes in the sent and
received message. They are confusing and used so much that they are
normal, and not exceptions. In addition, the first byte of
response in the debugfs interface is still always skipped, which is
weird, since this raw interface should be giving the entire result.
Additionally, sent messages assume the first byte is a command, and so
struct wilco_ec_message contains the "command" field. In setting or
getting properties however, the first byte is not a command, and so this
field has to be filled with a byte that isn't actually a command. This
is again inconsistent.
wilco_ec_message contains a result field as well, copied from
wilco_ec_response->result. The message result field should be removed:
if the message fails, the cause is already logged, and the callers are
alerted. They will never care about the actual state of the result flag.
These flags and different cases make the wilco_ec_transfer() function,
used in wilco_ec_mailbox(), really gross, dealing with a bunch of
different cases. It's difficult to figure out what it is doing.
Finally, making these assumptions about the structure of a message make
it so that the messages do not correspond well with the specification
for the EC's mailbox interface. For instance, this interface
specification may say that MBOX[9] in the received message contains
some information, but the calling code needs to remember that the first
byte of response is always skipped, and because it didn't set the
RESPONSE_RAW flag, the next byte is also skipped, so this information
is actually contained within wilco_ec_message->response_data[7]. This
makes it difficult to maintain this code in the future.
To fix these problems this patch standardizes the mailbox interface by:
- Removing the WILCO_EC_FLAG_RAW* flags
- Removing the command and reserved_raw bytes from wilco_ec_request
- Removing the mbox0 byte from wilco_ec_response
- Simplifying wilco_ec_transfer() because of these changes
- Gives the callers of wilco_ec_mailbox() the responsibility of exactly
and consistently defining the structure of the mailbox request and
response
- Removing command and result from wilco_ec_message.
This results in the reduction of total code, and makes it much more
maintainable and understandable.

System memory may have caches to help improve access speed to frequently
requested address ranges. While the system provided cache is transparent
to the software accessing these memory ranges, applications can optimize
their own access based on cache attributes.
Provide a new API for the kernel to register these memory-side caches
under the memory node that provides it.
The new sysfs representation is modeled from the existing cpu cacheinfo
attributes, as seen from /sys/devices/system/cpu/<cpu>/cache/. Unlike CPU
cacheinfo though, the node cache level is reported from the view of the
memory. A higher level number is nearer to the CPU, while lower levels
are closer to the last level memory.
The exported attributes are the cache size, the line size, associativity
indexing, and write back policy, and add the attributes for the system
memory caches to sysfs stable documentation.

Heterogeneous memory systems provide memory nodes with different latency
and bandwidth performance attributes. Provide a new kernel interface
for subsystems to register the attributes under the memory target
node's initiator access class. If the system provides this information,
applications may query these attributes when deciding which node to
request memory.
The following example shows the new sysfs hierarchy for a node exporting
performance attributes:
# tree -P "read*|write*"/sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/accessZ/initiators/
/sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/accessZ/initiators/
|-- read_bandwidth
|-- read_latency
|-- write_bandwidth
`-- write_latency
The bandwidth is exported as MB/s and latency is reported in
nanoseconds. The values are taken from the platform as reported by the
manufacturer.
Memory accesses from an initiator node that is not one of the memory's
access "Z" initiator nodes linked in the same directory may observe
different performance than reported here. When a subsystem makes use
of this interface, initiators of a different access number may not have
the same performance relative to initiators in other access numbers, or
omitted from the any access class' initiators.
Descriptions for memory access initiator performance access attributes
are added to sysfs stable documentation.

Systems may be constructed with various specialized nodes. Some nodes
may provide memory, some provide compute devices that access and use
that memory, and others may provide both. Nodes that provide memory are
referred to as memory targets, and nodes that can initiate memory access
are referred to as memory initiators.
Memory targets will often have varying access characteristics from
different initiators, and platforms may have ways to express those
relationships. In preparation for these systems, provide interfaces for
the kernel to export the memory relationship among different nodes memory
targets and their initiators with symlinks to each other.
If a system provides access locality for each initiator-target pair, nodes
may be grouped into ranked access classes relative to other nodes. The
new interface allows a subsystem to register relationships of varying
classes if available and desired to be exported.
A memory initiator may have multiple memory targets in the same access
class. The target memory's initiators in a given class indicate the
nodes access characteristics share the same performance relative to other
linked initiator nodes. Each target within an initiator's access class,
though, do not necessarily perform the same as each other.
A memory target node may have multiple memory initiators. All linked
initiators in a target's class have the same access characteristics to
that target.
The following example show the nodes' new sysfs hierarchy for a memory
target node 'Y' with access class 0 from initiator node 'X':
# symlinks -v /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/access0/
relative: /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/access0/targets/nodeY -> ../../nodeY
# symlinks -v /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/
relative: /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/initiators/nodeX -> ../../nodeX
The new attributes are added to the sysfs stable documentation.

There are two methods for signaling the host: the monitor page mechanism
and hypercalls. The monitor page mechanism is used by performance
critical channels (storage, networking, etc.) because it provides
improved throughput. However, latency is increased. Monitor pages are
allocated to these channels.
Monitor pages are not allocated to channels that do not use the monitor
page mechanism. Therefore, these channels do not have a valid monitor id
or valid monitor page data. In these cases, some of the "_show"
functions return incorrect data. They return an invalid monitor id and
data that is beyond the bounds of the hv_monitor_page array fields.
The "channel->offermsg.monitor_allocated" value can be used to determine
whether monitor pages have been allocated to a channel.
Add "is_visible()" callback functions for the device-level and
channel-level attribute groups. These functions will hide the monitor
sysfs files when the monitor mechanism is not used.
Remove ".default_attributes" from "vmbus_chan_attrs" and create a
channel-level attribute group. These changes allow the new
"is_visible()" callback function to be applied to the channel-level
attributes.
Call "sysfs_create_group()" in "vmbus_add_channel_kobj()" to create the
channel's sysfs files. Add a new function,
“vmbus_remove_channel_attr_group()”, and call it in "free_channel()" to
remove the channel's sysfs files when the channel is closed.

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
"New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
"reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
the core-mm as "System RAM".
Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
used to restore the memory assignment.
One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps
data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable
NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents
at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced
requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution /
administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that
lack security capable NVDIMMs.
Summary:
- Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and
include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI.
- Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range
- Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax
address-range to the core-mm.
- Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the
newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis"
NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because
we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about
accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks
inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some
(not described) circumstances.
And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular
RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily
get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for
the user space tooling.
Quoting Dan from another email:
"The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for
and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling
for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime
notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from
background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the
kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile
case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2.
I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by
tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM
making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in
the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's
possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active
application coordination"

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"We've continued mainly to fix bugs in this round, as f2fs has been
shipped in more devices. Especially, we've focused on stabilizing
checkpoint=disable feature, and provided some interfaces for QA.
Enhancements:
- expose FS_NOCOW_FL for pin_file
- run discard jobs at unmount time with timeout
- tune discarding thread to avoid idling which consumes power
- some checking codes to address vulnerabilities
- give random value to i_generation
- shutdown with more flags for QA
Bug fixes:
- clean up stale objects when mount is failed along with
checkpoint=disable
- fix system being stuck due to wrong count by atomic writes
- handle some corrupted disk cases
- fix a deadlock in f2fs_read_inline_dir
We've also added some minor build error fixes and clean-up patches"
