Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams:
"Save for a few late fixes, all of these commits have shipped in -next
releases since before the merge window opened, and 0day has given a
build success notification.
The ext4 touches came from Jan, and the xfs touches have Darrick's
reviewed-by. An xfstest for the MAP_SYNC feature has been through
a few round of reviews and is on track to be merged.
- Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable
'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax
mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may
be required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk")
before the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler.
Effectively every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an
fsync() before returning from the fault handler. The new
MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag
is validated as supported by the filesystem's ->mmap() file
operation.
- Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that
replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods.
This enables interoperability with environments that only implement
the standardized methods.
- Add support for the ACPI 6.2 NVDIMM media error injection methods.
- Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL v1.6 DIMM commands for
latch last shutdown status, firmware update, SMART error injection,
and SMART alarm threshold control.
- Cleanup physical address information disclosures to be root-only.
- Fix revalidation of the DIMM "locked label area" status to support
dynamic unlock of the label area.
- Expand unit test infrastructure to mock the ACPI 6.2 Translate SPA
(system-physical-address) command and error injection commands.

Pull rdma maintainership update from Doug Ledford:
"Add Jason Gunthorpe as co-maintainer of the RDMA stack.
The change is simply to add Jason Gunthorpe to the MAINTAINERS file
for the RDMA stack (and update him in the .mailmap). Jason and I have
talked offline, and Jason will be filing a ticket with the k.o
helpdesk to get an account on k.o, and then we will likely move the
rdma tree to an area where we can both access it and use a shared repo
+ individual topic branches + merged up for-next branch as the staging
basis for each release.
Timing here is nice because in the US we are headed into a holiday
period whereas Jason will be around to keep the patch flow progressing
(I guess Canadians do their equivalent to Thanksgiving in October, so
he doesn't have an excuse to ignore email for the next week ;-))"
[ .. and Konstantin already got Jason his kernel.org account between the
pull request and this actual pull - Linus ]

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc
Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This branch contains platform-related driver updates for ARM and
ARM64, these are the areas that bring the changes:
New drivers:
- driver support for Renesas R-Car V3M (R8A77970)
- power management support for Amlogic GX
- a new driver for the Tegra BPMP thermal sensor
- a new bus driver for Technologic Systems NBUS
Changes for subsystems that prefer to merge through arm-soc:
- the usual updates for reset controller drivers from Philipp Zabel,
with five added drivers for SoCs in the arc, meson, socfpa,
uniphier and mediatek families
- updates to the ARM SCPI and PSCI frameworks, from Sudeep Holla,
Heiner Kallweit and Lorenzo Pieralisi
Changes specific to some ARM-based SoC
- the Freescale/NXP DPAA QBMan drivers from PowerPC can now work on
ARM as well
- several changes for power management on Broadcom SoCs
- various improvements on Qualcomm, Broadcom, Amlogic, Atmel,
Mediatek
- minor Cleanups for Samsung, TI OMAP SoCs"
[ NOTE! This doesn't work without the previous ARM SoC device-tree pull,
because the R8A77970 driver is missing a header file that came from
that pull.
The fact that this got merged afterwards only fixes it at this point,
and bisection of that driver will fail if/when you walk into the
history of that driver. - Linus ]

For existing SoC support, there was a lot of ongoing work, as usual
most of that concentrated on the Renesas, Rockchip, OMAP, i.MX,
Amlogic and Allwinner platforms, but others were also active.
Rob Herring and many others worked on reducing the number of issues
that the latest version of 'dtc' now warns about. Unfortunately there
is still a lot left to do.
A rework of the ARM foundation model introduced several new files for
common variations of the model"

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"Most of the commits are for defconfig changes, to enable newly added
drivers or features that people have started using. For the changed
lines lines, we have mostly cleanups, the affected platforms are OMAP,
Versatile, EP93xx, Samsung, Broadcom, i.MX, and Actions.
The largest single change is the introduction of the TI "sysc" bus
driver, with the intention of cleaning up more legacy code.
Two new SoC platforms get added this time:
- Allwinner R40 is a modernized version of the A20 chip, now with a
Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A7. According to the manufacturer, it is
intended for "Smart Hardware"
- Broadcom Hurricane 2 (Aka Strataconnect BCM5334X) is a family of
chips meant for managed gigabit ethernet switches, based around a
Cortex-A9 CPU.
Finally, we gain SMP support for two platforms: Renesas R-Car E2 and
Amlogic Meson8/8b, which were previously added but only supported
uniprocessor operation"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl
Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:
Core:
- The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a
menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the
subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of
two things:
(a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in
a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the
highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical
places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview,
denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint...
It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that
this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an
embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware.
(b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic.
Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are
expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in
directly for their set-up.
- Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a
very vanilla subsystem. Do not depend on it, if we need it, select
it.
- Exposing the pin control subsystem in menuconfig uncovered a bunch
of obscure bugs that are now hopefully fixed, all more or less
pertaining to Blackfin.
- Unified namespace for cross-calls between pin control and GPIO.
- New support for clock skew/delay generic DT bindings and generic
pin config options for this.
- Minor documentation improvements.
Various:
- The Renesas SH-PFC pin controller has evolved a lot. It seems
Renesas are churning out new SoCs by the minute.
- A bunch of non-critical fixes for the Rockchip driver.
- Improve the use of library functions instead of open coding.
- Support the MCP28018 variant in the MCP28x08 driver.
- Static constifying"

Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is a fairly plain pull request. Lots of driver updates across the
stack, a huge number of static analysis cleanups including a close to
50 patch series from Bart Van Assche, and a number of new features
inside the stack such as general CQ moderation support.
Nothing really stands out, but there might be a few conflicts as you
take things in. In particular, the cleanups touched some of the same
lines as the new timer_setup changes.
Everything in this pull request has been through 0day and at least two
days of linux-next (since Stephen doesn't necessarily flag new
errors/warnings until day2). A few more items (about 30 patches) from
Intel and Mellanox showed up on the list on Tuesday. I've excluded
those from this pull request, and I'm sure some of them qualify as
fixes suitable to send any time, but I still have to review them
fully. If they contain mostly fixes and little or no new development,
then I will probably send them through by the end of the week just to
get them out of the way.
There was a break in my acceptance of patches which coincides with the
computer problems I had, and then when I got things mostly back under
control I had a backlog of patches to process, which I did mostly last
Friday and Monday. So there is a larger number of patches processed in
that timeframe than I was striving for.

- Multiple update series to hfi1 driver
- Updates to vnic driver
- Add kref to wait struct in cxgb4 driver

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"The big highlight is support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
which required extensive ABI work to ensure we don't break existing
applications by blowing away their signal stack with the rather large
new vector context (<= 2 kbit per vector register). There's further
work to be done optimising things like exception return, but the ABI
is solid now.
Much of the line count comes from some new PMU drivers we have, but
they're pretty self-contained and I suspect we'll have more of them in
future.
Plenty of acronym soup here:
- initial support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
- improved handling for SError interrupts (required to handle RAS
events)
- enable GCC support for 128-bit integer types
- remove kernel text addresses from backtraces and register dumps

Pull RISC-V architecture support from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This contains the core RISC-V Linux port, which has been through nine
rounds of review on various mailing lists. The port is not complete:
there's some cleanup patches moving through the review process, a
whole bunch of drivers that need some work, and a lot of feature
additions that will be needed.
The patches contained in this tag have been through nine rounds of
review on the various mailing lists. I have some outstanding cleanup
patches, but since there's been so much review on these patches I
thought it would be best to submit them as-is and then submit explicit
cleanup patches so everyone can review them. This first patch set is
big enough that it's a bit of a pain to constantly rewrite, and it's
caused a few headaches with various contributors.
The port is definately a work in progress. While what's there builds
and boots with 4.14, it's a bit hard to actually see anything happen
because there are no device drivers yet. I maintain a staging branch
that contains all the device drivers and cleanup that actually works,
but those patches won't all be ready for a while. I'd like to get what
we currently have into your tree so everyone can start working from a
single base -- of particular importance is allowing the glibc
upstreaming process to proceed so we can sort out any possibly
lingering user-visible ABI problems we might have.
Copied below is the ChangeLog that contains the history of this patch
set:
(v9) As per suggestions on our v8 patch set, I've split the core
architecture code out from our drivers and would like to submit
this patch set to be included into linux-next, with the goal
being to be merged in during the next merge window. This patch
set is based on 4.14-rc2, but if it's better to have it based on
something else then I can change it around.
This patch set contains just the core arch code for RISC-V, so
while it builds an nominally boots, you can't print or take an
interrupt so it's not that useful. If you're looking to actually
boot a system it would probably be better to use the full patch
set listed below.
We've collected a handful of tags from reviewers, and the
remainder of the patch set only got minimal feedback last time.
Here's what changed:
- We now use the device tree to initialize the timer driver so
it's less tighly coupled with the arch port.
- I cleaned up the defconfigs -- there's actually now just one,
and it's empty. For now I think we're OK with what the kernel
sets as defaults, but I anticipate we'll begin to expand this
as people start to use the port more.
- The VDSO symbols version is sane.
- We WFI while spinning in the boot loop.
- A handful of comments have been added.
While there are still a handful of FIXMEs in this patch set,
we've started to get enough interest from various users and
contributors that maintaining an out of tree patch set is
starting to become a big burden. Hopefully the patches are good
enough to merge now, which will at least get everyone working in
a more reasonable manner as we clean up the remaining issues.
(v8) I know it may not be the ideal time to submit a patch set right
now, as it's the middle of the merge window, but things have
calmed down quite a bit in the last month so I thought it would
be good to get everyone on the same page. There's been a handful
of changes since the last patch set, but most of them are fairly
minor:
- We changed PAGE_OFFSET to allowing mapping more physical
memory on 64-bit systems. This is user configurable, as it
triggers a different code model that generates slightly less
efficient code.
- The device tree binding documentation is back, I'd managed to
lose it at some point.
- We now pass the atomic64 test suite
- The SBI timer driver has been refactored.
(v7) It's been a while since my last patch set, but the changes han
been fairly minimal:
- The PCI cleanup patches have been dropped, we'll do them as a
separate patch set later.
- We've the Kconfig entries from CONFIG_ISA_* to
CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_*, to make grep easier.
- There have been a handful of memory model related tweaks in
I/O land, particularly relating the PCI and the upcoming
platform specification. There are significant comments in the
relevant files. This is still a WIP, but I think we're close
to getting as good as we're going to get until we end up with
some more specifications.
(v6) As it's been only a day since the v5 patch set, the changes are
pretty minimal:
- The patch set is now based on linux-next/master, which I
believe is a better base now that we're getting closer to
upstream.
- EARLY_PRINTK is no longer an option. Since the SBI console is
reasonable, there's no penalty to enabling it (and thus no
benefit to disabling it).
- The mmap syscalls were refactored a bit.
(v5) Things have really started to calm down, so this is fairly
similar to the v4 patch set. The most interesting changes
include:
- We've moved back to a single patch set.
- SMP support has been fixed, I was accidentally running on a
non-SMP configuration. There were various mistakes all over
the tree as a result of this.
- The cmpxchg syscalls have been removed, as they were deemed a
bad idea. As a result, RISC-V Linux systems mandate the A
extension. The corresponding Kconfig entry to enable builds
on non-A systems has been removed.
- A few more atomic fixes: mostly fence changes, but those
resulted in a handful of additional macros that were no
longer necessary.
- riscv_early_sie has been removed.
(v4) There have only been a few changes since the v3 patch set:
- The cmpxchg64 syscall is no longer enabled on 32-bit systems.
It's not possible to provide this on SMP systems, and it's
not necessary as glibc knows not to call it.
- We provide a ELF_HWCAP so users can determine the ISA of the
machine the kernel is running on.
- The multi-line comments are in a better form.
- There were a handful of headers that could be replaced with
the asm-generic versions, and a few unnecessary definitions.
- We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*.
- A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up.
(v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes:
- We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets,
which I've already sent out to the relevant maintainers. I
haven't included those patches in this patch set, but some of
them are necessary to build our port.
- The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being
split per directory it is split per topic. Hopefully this
will make it easier to review the port on the mailing list.
The split is a bit rough, so you probably still want to look
at the patch set as a whole.
- atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now
correct. I've attempted to sanitize the various other memory
model related code as well, and I think it should all be sane
now aside from a handful of FIXMEs commented in the code.
- We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not
be multiplexed. There is also a VDSO entry for compare and
exchange, which allows kernels with the A extension to
execute user code without the A extension reasonably fast.
- Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for
the Q extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few
words to allow extensibility to future ISA extensions like
the eventual V extension for vectors.
- A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into
separate patch sets now so I won't duplicate them here.
(v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes:
- We've split out our drivers into the right places, which
means now there's a lot more patches. I'll be submitting
these patches to various subsystem maintainers and including
them in any future RISC-V patch sets until they've been
merged.
- The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use
the HVC helpers and is now significantly smaller.
- We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big
"fence". There's still some work to do here, specifically:
- We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions.
- The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences.
- Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set.
- We now have thread_info in task_struct. As a result |
