a) instead of storing the symlink body (via nd_set_link()) and returning
an opaque pointer later passed to ->put_link(), ->follow_link() _stores_
that opaque pointer (into void * passed by address by caller) and returns
the symlink body. Returning ERR_PTR() on error, NULL on jump (procfs magic
symlinks) and pointer to symlink body for normal symlinks. Stored pointer
is ignored in all cases except the last one.
Storing NULL for opaque pointer (or not storing it at all) means no call
of ->put_link().
b) the body used to be passed to ->put_link() implicitly (via nameidata).
Now only the opaque pointer is. In the cases when we used the symlink body
to free stuff, ->follow_link() now should store it as opaque pointer in addition
to returning it.

A read() from a pty master may mistakenly indicate EOF (errno == -EIO)
after the pty slave has closed, even though input data remains to be read.
For example,
pty slave | input worker | pty master
| |
| | n_tty_read()
pty_write() | | input avail? no
add data | | sleep
schedule worker --->| | .
|---> flush_to_ldisc() | .
pty_close() | fill read buffer | .
wait for worker | wakeup reader --->| .
| read buffer full? |---> input avail ? yes
|<--- yes - exit worker | copy 4096 bytes to user
TTY_OTHER_CLOSED <---| |<--- kick worker
| |
**** New read() before worker starts ****
| | n_tty_read()
| | input avail? no
| | TTY_OTHER_CLOSED? yes
| | return -EIO
Several conditions are required to trigger this race:
1. the ldisc read buffer must become full so the input worker exits
2. the read() count parameter must be >= 4096 so the ldisc read buffer
is empty
3. the subsequent read() occurs before the kicked worker has processed
more input
However, the underlying cause of the race is that data is pipelined, while
tty state is not; ie., data already written by the pty slave end is not
yet visible to the pty master end, but state changes by the pty slave end
are visible to the pty master end immediately.
Pipeline the TTY_OTHER_CLOSED state through input worker to the reader.
1. Introduce TTY_OTHER_DONE which is set by the input worker when
TTY_OTHER_CLOSED is set and either the input buffers are flushed or
input processing has completed. Readers/polls are woken when
TTY_OTHER_DONE is set.
2. Reader/poll checks TTY_OTHER_DONE instead of TTY_OTHER_CLOSED.
3. A new input worker is started from pty_close() after setting
TTY_OTHER_CLOSED, which ensures the TTY_OTHER_DONE state will be
set if the last input worker is already finished (or just about to
exit).
Remove tty_flush_to_ldisc(); no in-tree callers.

More accurately, listen all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns
where the netlink socket is opened.
For this purpose, a netlink socket option is added:
NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID. When this option is set on a netlink socket, this
socket will receive netlink notifications from all netns that have a nsid
assigned into the netns where the socket has been opened. The nsid is sent
to userland via an anscillary data.
With this patch, a daemon needs only one socket to listen many netns. This
is useful when the number of netns is high.
Because 0 is a valid value for a nsid, the field nsid_is_set indicates if
the field nsid is valid or not. skb->cb is initialized to 0 on skb
allocation, thus we are sure that we will never send a nsid 0 by error to
the userland.

Seccomp has always been a special candidate when it comes to preparation
of its filters in seccomp_prepare_filter(). Due to the extra checks and
filter rewrite it partially duplicates code and has BPF internals exposed.
This patch adds a generic API inside the BPF code code that seccomp can use
and thus keep it's filter preparation code minimal and better maintainable.
The other side-effect is that now classic JITs can add seccomp support as
well by only providing a BPF_LDX | BPF_W | BPF_ABS translation.
Tested with seccomp and BPF test suites.

instead.
seccomp_check_filter() is passed to bpf_prepare_filter() so that it
gets called from there, after bpf_check_classic().
We can now remove exposure of two internal classic BPF functions
previously used by seccomp. The export of bpf_check_classic() symbol,
previously known as sk_chk_filter(), was there since pre git times,
and no in-tree module was using it, therefore remove it.

This is in preparation for use by the seccomp code, the rationale is
not to duplicate additional code within the seccomp layer, but instead,
have it abstracted and hidden within the classic BPF API.
As an interim step, this now also makes bpf_prepare_filter() visible
(not as exported symbol though), so that seccomp can reuse that code
path instead of reimplementing it.

DMA routers are transparent devices used to mux DMA requests from
peripherals to DMA controllers. They are used when the SoC integrates more
devices with DMA requests then their controller can handle.
DRA7x is one example of such SoC, where the sDMA can hanlde 128 DMA request
lines, but in SoC level it has 205 DMA requests.
The of_dma_router will be registered as of_dma_controller with special
xlate function and additional parameters. The driver for the router is
responsible to craft the dma_spec (in the of_dma_route_allocate callback)
which can be used to requests a DMA channel from the real DMA controller.
This way the router can be transparent for the system while remaining generic
enough to be used in different environments.

In up_write()/up_read(), rwsem_wake() will be called whenever it
detects that some writers/readers are waiting. The rwsem_wake()
function will take the wait_lock and call __rwsem_do_wake() to do the
real wakeup. For a heavily contended rwsem, doing a spin_lock() on
wait_lock will cause further contention on the heavily contended rwsem
cacheline resulting in delay in the completion of the up_read/up_write
operations.
This patch makes the wait_lock taking and the call to __rwsem_do_wake()
optional if at least one spinning writer is present. The spinning
writer will be able to take the rwsem and call rwsem_wake() later
when it calls up_write(). With the presence of a spinning writer,
rwsem_wake() will now try to acquire the lock using trylock. If that
fails, it will just quit.

This is useful for locking primitives that can effect multiple
wakeups per operation and want to avoid lock internal lock contention
by delaying the wakeups until we've released the lock internal locks.
Alternatively it can be used to avoid issuing multiple wakeups, and
thus save a few cycles, in packet processing. Queue all target tasks
and wakeup once you've processed all packets. That way you avoid
waking the target task multiple times if there were multiple packets
for the same task.
Properties of a wake_q are:
- Lockless, as queue head must reside on the stack.
- Being a queue, maintains wakeup order passed by the callers. This can
be important for otherwise, in scenarios where highly contended locks
could affect any reliance on lock fairness.
- A queued task cannot be added again until it is woken up.
This patch adds the needed infrastructure into the scheduler code
and uses the new wake_list to delay the futex wakeups until
after we've released the hash bucket locks.

While running a database workload, we found a scalability issue with itimers.
Much of the problem was caused by the thread_group_cputimer spinlock.
Each time we account for group system/user time, we need to obtain a
thread_group_cputimer's spinlock to update the timers. On larger systems
(such as a 16 socket machine), this caused more than 30% of total time
spent trying to obtain this kernel lock to update these group timer stats.
This patch converts the timers to 64-bit atomic variables and use
atomic add to update them without a lock. With this patch, the percent
of total time spent updating thread group cputimer timers was reduced
from 30% down to less than 1%.
Note: On 32-bit systems using the generic 64-bit atomics, this causes
sample_group_cputimer() to take locks 3 times instead of just 1 time.
However, we tested this patch on a 32-bit system ARM system using the
generic atomics and did not find the overhead to be much of an issue.
An explanation for why this isn't an issue is that 32-bit systems usually
have small numbers of CPUs, and cacheline contention from extra spinlocks
called periodically is not really apparent on smaller systems.

Currently KVM will clear the FPU bits in CR0.TS in the VMCS, and trap to
re-load them every time the guest accesses the FPU after a switch back into
the guest from the host.
This patch copies the x86 task switch semantics for FPU loading, with the
FPU loaded eagerly after first use if the system uses eager fpu mode,
or if the guest uses the FPU frequently.
In the latter case, after loading the FPU for 255 times, the fpu_counter
will roll over, and we will revert to loading the FPU on demand, until
it has been established that the guest is still actively using the FPU.
This mirrors the x86 task switch policy, which seems to work.

kvm_guest_enter then uses local_irq_save/restore to disable interrupts
again or for the first time. Lets provide underscore versions of
kvm_guest_{enter|exit} that assume being called locked.
kvm_guest_enter now disables interrupts for the full function and
thus we can remove the check for preemptible.
This patch then adopts s390/kvm to use local_irq_disable/enable calls
which are slighty cheaper that local_irq_save/restore and call these
