Pull rdma DMA mapping updates from Doug Ledford:
"Drop IB DMA mapping code and use core DMA code instead.
Bart Van Assche noted that the ib DMA mapping code was significantly
similar enough to the core DMA mapping code that with a few changes it
was possible to remove the IB DMA mapping code entirely and switch the
RDMA stack to use the core DMA mapping code.
This resulted in a nice set of cleanups, but touched the entire tree
and has been kept separate for that reason."

This patch adds a new API to indicate S0ix residency in usec. It utilizes
the PMC Global Control Registers (GCR) to read deep and shallow
S0ix residency.
PMC MMIO resources:
o Lower 4kB: IPC1 (PMC inter-processor communication) interface
o Upper 4kB: GCR (Global Control Registers)
This enables the power management framework to take corrective actions when
the platform fails to enter S0ix after kernel freeze as part of the suspend
to idle flow. (echo freeze > /sys/power/state).
This is expected to be used with a S0ix failsafe framework such as:

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"4.11 is going to be a relatively large release for KVM, with a little
over 200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.
ARM:
- GICv3 save/restore
- cache flushing fixes
- working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
- physical timer emulation
MIPS:
- various improvements under the hood
- support for SMP guests
- a large rewrite of MMU emulation. KVM MIPS can now use MMU
notifiers to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking,
swapping, ballooning and everything else. KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is
also supported, so that writes to some memory regions can be
treated as MMIO. The new MMU also paves the way for hardware
virtualization support.
PPC:
- support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
- resizable hashed page table
- bugfixes.
s390:
- expose more features to the guest
- more SIMD extensions
- instruction execution protection
- ESOP2
x86:
- improved hashing in the MMU
- faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
- some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
migration support of nested hypervisors
- expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
- host-to-guest PTP support
- refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown
in and some duct tape removed.
- remove lazy FPU handling
- optimizations of user-mode exits
- optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests

- alternative signaling mechanism that doesn't pound on

downcast from long to int is not a problem as vCPU number won't exceed

Intel's VMX is daft and resets the hidden TSS limit register to 0x67
on VMX reload, and the 0x67 is not configurable. KVM currently
reloads TR using the LTR instruction on every exit, but this is quite
slow because LTR is serializing.
The 0x67 limit is entirely harmless unless ioperm() is in use, so
defer the reload until a task using ioperm() is actually running.

Historically, the entire TSS + io bitmap structure was cacheline
aligned, but commit ca241c7503 ("x86: unify tss_struct") changed it
(presumably inadvertently) so that the fixed-layout hardware part is
cacheline-aligned and the io bitmap is after the padding. This wastes
24 bytes (the hardware part should be 104 bytes, but this pads it to
128 bytes) and, serves no purpose, and causes sizeof(struct

Drop the pointless alignment.

Recently a new dm_op[1] hypercall was added to Xen to provide a mechanism
for restricting device emulators (such as QEMU) to a limited set of
hypervisor operations, and being able to audit those operations in the
kernel of the domain in which they run.
This patch adds IOCTL_PRIVCMD_DM_OP as gateway for __HYPERVISOR_dm_op.
NOTE: There is no requirement for user-space code to bounce data through
locked memory buffers (as with IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL) since
privcmd has enough information to lock the original buffers
directly.

restored the initial approach we had with the Fam15h topology of
enumerating CU (Compute Unit) threads as cores. And this is still
correct - they're beefier than HT threads but still have some
shared functionality.
Our current approach has a problem with the Mad Max Steam game, for
example. Yves Dionne reported a certain "choppiness" while playing on
v4.9.5.
That problem stems most likely from the fact that the CU threads share
resources within one CU and when we schedule to a thread of a different
compute unit, this incurs latency due to migrating the working set to a
different CU through the caches.
When the thread siblings mask mirrors that aspect of the CUs and
threads, the scheduler pays attention to it and tries to schedule within
one CU first. Which takes care of the latency, of course.

Introduce ELF_HWCAP2 variable for x86 and reserve its bit 0 to expose the
ring 3 MONITOR/MWAIT.
HWCAP variables contain bitmasks which can be used by userspace
applications to detect which instruction sets are supported by CPU. On x86
architecture information about CPU capabilities can be checked via CPUID
instructions, unfortunately presence of ring 3 MONITOR/MWAIT feature cannot
be checked this way. ELF_HWCAP cannot be used as well, because on x86 it is
set to CPUID[1].EDX which means that all bits are reserved there.
HWCAP2 approach was chosen because it reuses existing solution present
in other architectures, so only minor modifications are required to the
kernel and userspace applications. When ELF_HWCAP2 is defined
kernel maps it to AT_HWCAP2 during the start of the application.
This way the ring 3 MONITOR/MWAIT feature can be detected using getauxval()
API in a simple and fast manner. ELF_HWCAP2 type is u32 to be consistent
with x86 ELF_HWCAP type.

Define new MSR MISC_FEATURE_ENABLES (0x140).
On supported CPUs if bit 1 of this MSR is set, then calling MONITOR and
MWAIT instructions outside of ring 0 will not cause invalid-opcode
exception.
The MSR MISC_FEATURE_ENABLES is not yet documented in the SDM. Here is the
relevant documentation:
Hex Dec Name Scope
140H 320 MISC_FEATURE_ENABLES Thread
0 Reserved
1 If set to 1, the MONITOR and MWAIT instructions do not
cause invalid-opcode exceptions when executed with CPL > 0
or in virtual-8086 mode. If MWAIT is executed when CPL > 0
or in virtual-8086 mode, and if EAX indicates a C-state
other than C0 or C1, the instruction operates as if EAX
indicated the C-state C1.
63:2 Reserved

The following patch (not upstream yet):
"x86/boot/e820: Remove spurious asm/e820/api.h inclusions"
Removed the (spurious) <asm/e820.h> include line from <asm/pgtable.h> to
reduce header file dependencies - but a Xen header has (unintentionally)
learned to rely on the indirect inclusion of <linux/device.h>.
This resulted in the following (harmless) build warning:
arch/x86/include/asm/xen/page.h:302:7: warning: 'struct device' declared inside parameter list
Include <linux/device.h> explicitly.
No change in functionality.

We need to cleanup the hypercall page before doing kexec/kdump or the new
kernel may crash if it tries to use it. Reuse the now-empty hv_cleanup
function renaming it to hyperv_cleanup and moving to the arch specific
code.

Linus pointed out that relying on the compiler to pack structures with
enums is fragile not just for the kernel, but for external tooling as
well which might rely on our UAPI headers.
So separate the two from each other: introduce 'struct boot_e820_entry',
which is the boot protocol entry format.
This actually simplifies the code, as e820__update_table() is now never
called directly with boot protocol table entries - we can rely on
append_e820_table() and do a e820__update_table() call afterwards.
( This will allow further simplifications of __e820__update_table(),
but that will be done in a separate patch. )
This change also has the side effect of not modifying the bootparams structure
anymore - which might be useful for debugging. In theory we could even constify
the boot_params structure - at least from the E820 code's point of view.
Remove the uapi/asm/e820/types.h file, as it's not used anymore - all
kernel side E820 types are defined in asm/e820/types.h.
