Pull READ/WRITE_ONCE rework from Will Deacon:
"This the READ_ONCE rework I've been working on for a while, which
bumps the minimum GCC version and improves code-gen on arm64 when
stack protector is enabled"
[ Side note: I'm _really_ tempted to raise the minimum gcc version to
4.9, so that we can just say that we require _Generic() support.
That would allow us to more cleanly handle a lot of the cases where we
depend on very complex macros with 'sizeof' or __builtin_choose_expr()
with __builtin_types_compatible_p() etc.
This branch has a workaround for sparse not handling _Generic(),
either, but that was already fixed in the sparse development branch,
so it's really just gcc-4.9 that we'd require. - Linus ]

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
"This time around we have four lines of diff in the core framework,
removing a function that isn't used anymore. Otherwise the main new
thing for the common clk framework is that it is selectable in the
Kconfig language now. Hopefully this will let clk drivers and clk
consumers be testable on more than the architectures that support the
clk framework. The goal is to introduce some Kunit tests for the
framework.
Outside of the core framework we have the usual set of various driver
updates and non-critical fixes. The dirstat shows that the new
Baikal-T1 driver is the largest addition this time around in terms of
lines of code. After that the x86 (Intel), Qualcomm, and Mediatek
drivers introduce many lines to support new or upcoming SoCs. After
that the dirstat shows the usual suspects working on their SoC support
by fixing minor bugs, correcting data and converting some of their DT
bindings to YAML.
Core:
- Allow the COMMON_CLK config to be selectable
New Drivers:
- Clk driver for Baikal-T1 SoCs
- Mediatek MT6765 clock support
- Support for Intel Agilex clks
- Add support for X1830 and X1000 Ingenic SoC clk controllers
- Add support for the new Renesas RZ/G1H (R8A7742) SoC
- Add support for Qualcomm's MSM8939 Generic Clock Controller
Updates:
- Support IDT VersaClock 5P49V5925
- Bunch of updates for HSDK clock generation unit (CGU) driver
- Start making audio and GPU clks work on Marvell MMP2/MMP3 SoCs
- Add some GPU, NPU, and UFS clks to Qualcomm SM8150 driver
- Enable supply regulators for GPU gdscs on Qualcomm SoCs
- Add support for Si5342, Si5344 and Si5345 chips
- Support custom flags in Xilinx zynq firmware
- Various small fixes to the Xilinx clk driver
- A single minor rounding fix for the legacy Allwinner clock support
- A few patches from Abel Vesa as preparation of adding audiomix
clock support on i.MX
- A couple of cleanups from Anson Huang for i.MX clk-sscg-pll and
clk-pllv3 drivers
- Drop dependency on ARM64 for i.MX8M clock driver, to support
aarch32 mode on aarch64 hardware
- A series from Peng Fan to improve i.MX8M clock drivers, using
composite clock for core and bus clk slice
- Set a better parent clock for flexcan on i.MX6UL to support CiA102
defined bit rates
- A couple changes for EMC frequency scaling on Tegra210
- Support for CPU frequency scaling on Tegra20/Tegra30
- New clk gate for CSI test pattern generator on Tegra210

Pull x86 srbds fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The 9th episode of the dime novel "The performance killer" with the
subtitle "Slow Randomizing Boosts Denial of Service".
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from
the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New
microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of
RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten
before it is released for reuse. This is equivalent to a full bus
lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in
parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a
locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two
cachelines at once.
The mitigation support comes with the usual pile of unpleasant
ingredients:
- command line options
- sysfs file
- microcode checks
- a list of vulnerable CPUs identified by model and stepping this
time which requires stepping match support for the cpu match logic.
- the inevitable slowdown of affected CPUs"

Pull iommu updates from Joerg Roedel:
"A big part of this is a change in how devices get connected to IOMMUs
in the core code. It contains the change from the old add_device() /
remove_device() to the new probe_device() / release_device()
call-backs.
As a result functionality that was previously in the IOMMU drivers has
been moved to the IOMMU core code, including IOMMU group allocation
for each device. The reason for this change was to get more robust
allocation of default domains for the iommu groups.
A couple of fixes were necessary after this was merged into the IOMMU
tree, but there are no known bugs left. The last fix is applied on-top
of the merge commit for the topic branches.
Other than that change, we have:
- Removal of the driver private domain handling in the Intel VT-d
driver. This was fragile code and I am glad it is gone now.
- More Intel VT-d updates from Lu Baolu:
- Nested Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) support to the Intel VT-d
driver
- Replacement of the Intel SVM interfaces to the common IOMMU SVA
API
- SVA Page Request draining support
- ARM-SMMU Updates from Will:
- Avoid mapping reserved MMIO space on SMMUv3, so that it can be

- Use xarray to manage ASIDs on SMMUv3
- Reword confusing shutdown message

- Allow implementations to override the default domain type
- A new IOMMU driver for the Allwinner Sun50i platform
- Support for ATS gets disabled for untrusted devices (like

Starting from v4.19 commit 29ef680ae7c2 ("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory
back to the charge path") cgroup oom killer is no longer invoked only
from page faults. Now it implements the same semantics as global OOM
killer: allocation context invokes OOM killer and keeps retrying until
success.

Patch series "vhost, docs: convert to pin_user_pages(), new "case 5""
It recently became clear to me that there are some get_user_pages*()
callers that don't fit neatly into any of the four cases that are so far
listed in pin_user_pages.rst. vhost.c is one of those.
Add a Case 5 to the documentation, and refer to that when converting
vhost.c.
Thanks to Jan Kara for helping me (again) in understanding the
interaction between get_user_pages() and page writeback [1].
This is based on today's mmotm, which has a nearby patch to
pin_user_pages.rst that rewords cases 3 and 4.
Note that I have only compile-tested the vhost.c patch, although that
does also include cross-compiling for a few other arches. Any run-time
testing would be greatly appreciated.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200529070343.GL14550@quack2.suse.cz
This patch (of 2):
There are four cases listed in pin_user_pages.rst. These are intended
to help developers figure out whether to use get_user_pages*(), or
pin_user_pages*(). However, the four cases do not cover all the
situations. For example, drivers/vhost/vhost.c has a "pin, write to
page, set page dirty, unpin" case.
Add a fifth case, to help explain that there is a general pattern that
requires pin_user_pages*() API calls.

Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no
return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel
splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump
and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to
collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel).
When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to
try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown
their VMs / finish their important tasks.
This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an
oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the
usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added
(and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set
will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces.
Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for
some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough
to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual
environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could
lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes).
This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without
resorting to |
