Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_ioctl() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function

After careful review, at least some of these calls could be converted

The non-compat codepaths for sys_...msg() verify that MSG_CMSG_COMPAT
is not set. By moving this check to the __sys_...msg() functions
(and making it dependent on a static flag passed to this function), we
can call the __sys...msg() functions instead of the syscall functions
in all cases. __sys_recvmmsg() does not need this trickery, as the
check is handled within the do_sys_recvmmsg() function internal to
net/socket.c.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main kernel side changes were:
- Modernize the kprobe and uprobe creation/destruction tooling ABIs:
The existing text based APIs (kprobe_events and uprobe_events in
tracefs), are naive, limited ABIs in that they require user-space
to clean up after themselves, which is both difficult and fragile
if the tool is buggy or exits unexpectedly. In other words they are
not really suited for modern, robust tooling.
So introduce a modern, file descriptor based ABI that does not have
these limitations: introduce the 'perf_kprobe' and 'perf_uprobe'
PMUs and extend the perf_event_open() syscall to create events with
a kprobe/uprobe attached to them. These [k,u]probe are associated
with this file descriptor, so they are not available in tracefs.
(Song Liu)
- Intel Cannon Lake CPU support (Harry Pan)
- Intel PT cleanups (Alexander Shishkin)
- Improve the performance of pinned/flexible event groups by using RB
trees (Alexey Budankov)
- Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES which allows the modification
of hardware breakpoints, which new ABI variant massively speeds up
existing tooling that uses hardware breakpoints to instrument (and
debug) memory usage.
(Milind Chabbi, Jiri Olsa)
- Various Intel PEBS handling fixes and improvements, and other Intel
PMU improvements (Kan Liang)
- Various perf core improvements and optimizations (Peter Zijlstra)

* Recognize and handle jumps to other functions as calls, which
improves the navigation along jumps and back. (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
* Add the 'P' hotkey in TUI annotation to dump annotation output
into a file, to ease e-mail reporting of annotation details.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
* Add an IPC/cycles column to the TUI (Jin Yao)
* Improve s390 assembly annotation (Thomas Richter)
* Refactor the output formatting logic to better separate it into
interactive and non-interactive features and add the --stdio2
output variant to demonstrate this. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- 'perf script' improvements:
* Add Python 3 support (Jaroslav Škarvada)
* Add --show-round-event (Jiri Olsa)
- 'perf c2c' improvements:
* Add NUMA analysis support (Jiri Olsa)

ASoC: Updates for v4.17
This is a *very* big release for ASoC. Not much change in the core but
there s the transition of all the individual drivers over to components
which is intended to support further core work. The goal is to make it
easier to do further core work by removing the need to special case all
the different driver classes in the core, many of the devices end up
being used in multiple roles in modern systems.
We also have quite a lot of new drivers added this month of all kinds,
quite a few for simple devices but also some more advanced ones with
more substantial code.
- The biggest thing is the huge series from Morimoto-san which
converted everything over to components. This is a huge change by
code volume but was fairly mechanical
- Many fixes for some of the Realtek based Baytrail systems covering
both the CODECs and the CPUs, contributed by Hans de Goode.
- Lots of cleanups for Samsung based Odroid systems from Sylwester
Nawrocki.
- The Freescale SSI driver also got a lot of cleanups from Nicolin
Chen.
- The Blackfin drivers have been removed as part of the removal of the
architecture.
- New drivers for AKM AK4458 and AK5558, several AMD based machines,
several Intel based machines, Maxim MAX9759, Motorola CPCAP,
Socionext Uniphier SoCs, and TI PCM1789 and TDA7419
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in the locking subsystem in this cycle were:
- Add the Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model (LKMM) subsystem,
which is an an array of tools in tools/memory-model/ that formally
describe the Linux memory coherency model (a.k.a.
Documentation/memory-barriers.txt), and also produce 'litmus tests'
in form of kernel code which can be directly executed and tested.
Here's a high level background article about an earlier version of
this work on LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/718628/
The design principles:
"There is reason to believe that Documentation/memory-barriers.txt
could use some help, and a major purpose of this patch is to
provide that help in the form of a design-time tool that can
produce all valid executions of a small fragment of concurrent
Linux-kernel code, which is called a "litmus test". This tool's
functionality is roughly similar to a full state-space search.
Please note that this is a design-time tool, not useful for
regression testing. However, we hope that the underlying
Linux-kernel memory model will be incorporated into other tools
capable of analyzing large bodies of code for regression-testing
purposes."
[...]
"A second tool is klitmus7, which converts litmus tests to
loadable kernel modules for direct testing. As with herd7, the
klitmus7 code is freely available from
http://diy.inria.fr/sources/index.html
(and via "git" at https://github.com/herd/herdtools7)"

This extends the sysfs interface for thermal cooling devices and exposes
some pretty useful statistics. These statistics have proven to be quite
useful specially while doing benchmarks related to the task scheduler,
where we want to make sure that nothing has disrupted the test,
specially the cooling device which may have put constraints on the CPUs.
The information exposed here tells us to what extent the CPUs were
constrained by the thermal framework.
The write-only "reset" file is used to reset the statistics.
The read-only "time_in_state_ms" file shows the time (in msec) spent by the
device in the respective cooling states, and it prints one line per
cooling state.
The read-only "total_trans" file shows single positive integer value
showing the total number of cooling state transitions the device has
gone through since the time the cooling device is registered or the time
when statistics were reset last.
The read-only "trans_table" file shows a two dimensional matrix, where
an entry <i,j> (row i, column j) represents the number of transitions
from State_i to State_j.
This is how the directory structure looks like for a single cooling
device:
$ ls -R /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/
/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/:
cur_state max_state power stats subsystem type uevent
/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/power:
autosuspend_delay_ms runtime_active_time runtime_suspended_time
control runtime_status
/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/stats:
reset time_in_state_ms total_trans trans_table
This is tested on ARM 64-bit Hisilicon hikey620 board running Ubuntu and
ARM 64-bit Hisilicon hikey960 board running Android.

This patch adds the infrastructure required to support cephfs quotas as it
is currently implemented in the ceph fuse client. Cephfs quotas can be
set on any directory, and can restrict the number of bytes or the number
of files stored beneath that point in the directory hierarchy.
Quotas are set using the extended attributes 'ceph.quota.max_files' and
'ceph.quota.max_bytes', and can be removed by setting these attributes to
'0'.
