Pull driver core update from Greg KH:
"Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1.
They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform
drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes,
just removing a line in a structure.
Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There
are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been
acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs
changes.
Everything has been in linux-next for a while"

There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For
example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
is an lsync or eieio instruction.
This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on
ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:
Barrier Call Explanation
--------- -------- ----------------------------------
rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system
dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable
These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
CPU and a device.
It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't
provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to
be gained in trying to define such a function.

This patch is meant to cleanup the handling of read_barrier_depends and
smp_read_barrier_depends. In multiple spots in the kernel headers
read_barrier_depends is defined as "do {} while (0)", however we then go
into the SMP vs non-SMP sections and have the SMP version reference
read_barrier_depends, and the non-SMP define it as yet another empty
do/while.
With this commit I went through and cleaned out the duplicate definitions
and reduced the number of definitions down to 2 per header. In addition I
moved the 50 line comments for the macro from the x86 and mips headers that
defined it as an empty do/while to those that were actually defining the
macro, alpha and blackfin.

As a small zero page, huge zero page should not be accounted in smaps
report as normal page.
For small pages we rely on vm_normal_page() to filter out zero page, but
vm_normal_page() is not designed to handle pmds. We only get here due
hackish cast pmd to pte in smaps_pte_range() -- pte and pmd format is not
necessary compatible on each and every architecture.
Let's add separate codepath to handle pmds. follow_trans_huge_pmd() will
detect huge zero page for us.
We would need pmd_dirty() helper to do this properly. The patch adds it
to THP-enabled architectures which don't yet have one.

Pull asm-generic asm/io.h rewrite from Arnd Bergmann:
"While there normally is no reason to have a pull request for
asm-generic but have all changes get merged through whichever tree
needs them, I do have a series for 3.19.
There are two sets of patches that change significant portions of
asm/io.h, and this branch contains both in order to resolve the
conflicts:
- Will Deacon has done a set of patches to ensure that all
architectures define {read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed() functions or
get them by including asm-generic/io.h.
These functions are commonly used on ARM specific drivers to avoid
expensive L2 cache synchronization implied by the normal
{read,write}{b,w,l,q}, but we need to define them on all
architectures in order to share the drivers across architectures
and to enable CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST configurations for them
- Thierry Reding has done an unrelated set of patches that extends
the asm-generic/io.h file to the degree necessary to make it useful
on ARM64 and potentially other architectures"

introduce new setsockopt() command:
setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_BPF, &prog_fd, sizeof(prog_fd))
where prog_fd was received from syscall bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, attr, ...)
and attr->prog_type == BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER
setsockopt() calls bpf_prog_get() which increments refcnt of the program,
so it doesn't get unloaded while socket is using the program.
The same eBPF program can be attached to multiple sockets.
User task exit automatically closes socket which calls sk_filter_uncharge()
which decrements refcnt of eBPF program

Commit 1191ccb34cf8 ("sparc: io: implement dummy relaxed accessor
macros for writes") added the relaxed accessors (readl_relaxed etc) in
a file that is shared between sparc32 and sparc64. However, the earlier
e1039fb42609 ("sparc32: introduce asm-generic/io.h") had already changed
the sparc32 implementation to use asm-generic/io.h, which provides the
same macros, resulting in lots of build errors.
This moves the definitions from the shared sparc file into the
sparc64-only file to fix the sparc32 build regression.

Alternative to RPS/RFS is to use hardware support for multiple
queues.
Then split a set of million of sockets into worker threads, each
one using epoll() to manage events on its own socket pool.
Ideally, we want one thread per RX/TX queue/cpu, but we have no way to
know after accept() or connect() on which queue/cpu a socket is managed.
We normally use one cpu per RX queue (IRQ smp_affinity being properly
set), so remembering on socket structure which cpu delivered last packet
is enough to solve the problem.
After accept(), connect(), or even file descriptor passing around
processes, applications can use :
int cpu;
socklen_t len = sizeof(cpu);
getsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, &len);
And use this information to put the socket into the right silo
for optimal performance, as all networking stack should run
on the appropriate cpu, without need to send IPI (RPS/RFS).

Pull two sparc fixes from David Miller:
1) Fix boots with gcc-4.9 compiled sparc64 kernels.
2) Add missing __get_user_pages_fast() on sparc64 to fix hangs on
futexes used in transparent hugepage areas.
It's really idiotic to have a weak symbolled fallback that just
returns zero, and causes this kind of bug. There should be no
backup implementation and the link should fail if the architecture
fails to provide __get_user_pages_fast() and supports transparent
hugepages.

Meelis Roos reported that kernels built with gcc-4.9 do not boot, we
eventually narrowed this down to only impacting machines using
UltraSPARC-III and derivitive cpus.
The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned:

[ 55.050713] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004
Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with
an older compiler fixes the boot.
Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by
gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering.
With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching
causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted. Perhaps
we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to
cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get
back from the TLB miss trap.
Let's plug this up by doing two things:
1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into
the firmware. Just use the kernel's stack.
2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()"
to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's
deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.

write{b,w,l,q}_relaxed are implemented by some architectures in order to
permit memory-mapped I/O accesses with weaker barrier semantics than the
non-relaxed variants.
This patch adds dummy macros for the write accessors to sparc, in the
same vein as the dummy definitions for the relaxed read accessors. The
existing relaxed read{b,w,l} accessors are moved into asm/io.h, since
they are identical between 32-bit and 64-bit machines.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

This breaks the stack end corruption detection facility.
What that facility does it write a magic value to "end_of_stack()"
and checking to see if it gets overwritten.
"end_of_stack()" is "task_thread_info(p) + 1", which for sparc64 is
the beginning of the FPU register save area.
So once the user uses the FPU, the magic value is overwritten and the
debug checks trigger.
Fix this by making the size explicit.
Due to the size we use for the fpsaved[], gsr[], and xfsr[] arrays we
are limited to 7 levels of FPU state saves. So each FPU register set
is 256 bytes, allocate 256 * 7 for the fpregs area.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

The AES loops in arch/sparc/crypto/aes_glue.c use a scheme where the
key material is preloaded into the FPU registers, and then we loop
over and over doing the crypt operation, reusing those pre-cooked key
registers.
There are intervening blkcipher*() calls between the crypt operation
calls. And those might perform memcpy() and thus also try to use the
FPU.
The sparc64 kernel FPU usage mechanism is designed to allow such
recursive uses, but with a catch.
There has to be a trap between the two FPU using threads of control.
The mechanism works by, when the FPU is already in use by the kernel,
allocating a slot for FPU saving at trap time. Then if, within the
trap handler, we try to use the FPU registers, the pre-trap FPU
register state is saved into the slot. Then at trap return time we
notice this and restore the pre-trap FPU state.
Over the long term there are various more involved ways we can make
this work, but for a quick fix let's take advantage of the fact that
the situation where this happens is very limited.
All sparc64 chips that support the crypto instructiosn also are using
the Niagara4 memcpy routine, and that routine only uses the FPU for
large copies where we can't get the source aligned properly to a
multiple of 8 bytes.
We look to see if the FPU is already in use in this context, and if so
we use the non-large copy path which only uses integer registers.
Furthermore, we also limit this special logic to when we are doing
kernel copy, rather than a user copy.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

swapper_low_pmd_dir and swapper_pud_dir are actually completely
useless and unnecessary.
We just need swapper_pg_dir[]. Naturally the other page table chunks
will be allocated on an as-needed basis. Since the kernel actually
accesses these tables in the PAGE_OFFSET view, there is not even a TLB
locality advantage of placing them in the kernel image.
Use the hard coded vmlinux.ld.S slot for swapper_pg_dir which is
naturally page aligned.
Increase MAX_BANKS to 1024 in order to handle heavily fragmented
virtual guests.
Even with this MAX_BANKS increase, the kernel is 20K+ smaller.

This patch attempts to do a few things. The highlights are: 1) enable
SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, 2) kills off !SPARSE_IRQ code 3) allocates
ivector_table at boot time and 4) default to cookie only VIRQ mechanism
for supported firmware. The first firmware with cookie only support for
me appears on T5. You can optionally force the HV firmware to not cookie
only mode which is the sysino support.
The sysino is a deprecated HV mechanism according to the most recent
SPARC Virtual Machine Specification. HV_GRP_INTR is what controls the
cookie/sysino firmware versioning.
The history of this interface is:
1) Major version 1.0 only supported sysino based interrupt interfaces.
2) Major version 2.0 added cookie based VIRQs, however due to the fact
that OSs were using the VIRQs without negoatiating major version
2.0 (Linux and Solaris are both guilty), the VIRQs calls were
allowed even with major version 1.0
To complicate things even further, the VIRQ interfaces were only
actually hooked up in the hypervisor for LDC interrupt sources.
VIRQ calls on other device types would result in HV_EINVAL errors.
So effectively, major version 2.0 is unusable.
3) Major version 3.0 was created to signal use of VIRQs and the fact
that the hypervisor has these calls hooked up for all interrupt
sources, not just those for LDC devices.
A new boot option is provided should cookie only HV support have issues.
hvirq - this is the version for HV_GRP_INTR. This is related to HV API
versioning. The code attempts major=3 first by default. The option can
be used to override this default.
I've tested with SPARSE_IRQ on T5-8, M7-4 and T4-X and Jalap?no.

In order to accomodate embedded per-cpu allocation with large numbers
of cpus and numa nodes, we have to use as much virtual address space
as possible for the vmalloc region. Otherwise we can get things like:
PERCPU: max_distance=0x380001c10000 too large for vmalloc space 0xff00000000
So, once we select a value for PAGE_OFFSET, derive the size of the
vmalloc region based upon that.

If max_phys_bits needs to be > 43 (f.e. for T4 chips), things like
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC stop working because the 3-level page tables only
can cover up to 43 bits.
Another problem is that when we increased MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS up to
47, several statically allocated tables became enormous.
Compounding this is that we will need to support up to 49 bits of
physical addressing for M7 chips.
The two tables in question are sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap and
kpte_linear_bitmap.
The first holds a bitmap, with 1 bit for each 4MB chunk of physical
memory, indicating whether that chunk actually exists in the machine
and is valid.
The second table is a set of 2-bit values which tell how large of a
mapping (4MB, 256MB, 2GB, 16GB, respectively) we can use at each 256MB
chunk of ram in the system.
These tables are huge and take up an enormous amount of the BSS
section of the sparc64 kernel image. Specifically, the
sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap is 4MB, and the kpte_linear_bitmap is 128K.
So let's solve the space wastage and the DEBUG_PAGEALLOC problem
at the same time, by using the kernel page tables (as designed) to
manage this information.
We have to keep using large mappings when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is disabled,
and we do this by encoding huge PMDs and PUDs.
On a T4-2 with 256GB of ram the kernel page table takes up 16K with
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC disabled and 256MB with it enabled. Furthermore, this
memory is dynamically allocated at run time rather than coded
statically into the kernel image.

vio_dring_avail() will allow use of every dring entry, but when the last
entry is allocated then dr->prod == dr->cons which is indistinguishable from
the ring empty condition. This causes the next allocation to reuse an entry.
When this happens in sunvdc, the server side vds driver begins nack'ing the
messages and ends up resetting the ldc channel. This problem does not effect
sunvnet since it checks for < 2.
The fix here is to just never allocate the very last dring slot so that full
and empty are not the same condition. The request start path was changed to
check for the ring being full a bit earlier, and to stop the blk_queue if
there is no space left. The blk_queue will be restarted once the ring is
only half full again. The number of ring entries was increased to 512 which
matches the sunvnet and Solaris vdc drivers, and greatly reduces the
frequency of hitting the ring full condition and the associated blk_queue
stop/starting. The checks in sunvent were adjusted to account for
vio_dring_avail() returning 1 less.

Interpret the media type from v1.1 protocol to support CDROM/DVD.
For v1.0 protocol, a disk's size continues to be calculated from the
geometry returned by the vdisk server. The geometry returned by the server
can be less than the actual number of sectors available in the backing
image/device due to the rounding in the division used to compute the
geometry in the vdisk server.
In v1.1 protocol a disk's actual size in sectors is returned during the
handshake. Use this size when v1.1 protocol is negotiated. Since this size
will always be larger than the former geometry computed size, disks created
under v1.0 will be forwards compatible to v1.1, but not vice versa.
