On modern CPUs it is almost always a bad idea to use non-temporal stores,

30d697f: x86: fix performance regression in write() syscall
The kernel simply has no good information about whether using non-temporal
stores is a good idea or not - and trying to add heuristics only increases
complexity and inserts fragility.
The regression on cached write()s took very long to be found - over two
years. So dont take any chances and let the hardware decide how it makes
use of its caches.
The only exception is drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c: there were we are
absolutely sure that another entity (the GPU) will pick up the dirty
data immediately and that the CPU will not touch that data before the
GPU will.
Also, keep the _nocache() primitives to make it easier for people to
experiment with these details. There may be more clear-cut cases where
non-cached copies can be used, outside of filemap.c.

deterimental for small writes. Unixbench's fstime test gives the

Impact: extend prefetch handling on 64-bit
Currently there's an extra is_prefetch() check done in do_sigbus(),
which we only do on 32 bits.
This is a last-ditch check before we terminate a task, so it's worth
giving prefetch instructions another chance - should none of our
existing quirks have caught a prefetch instruction related spurious
fault.
The only risk is if a prefetch causes a real sigbus, in that case
we'll not OOM but try another fault. But this code has been on
32-bit for a long time, so it should be fine in practice.
So do this on 64-bit too - and thus remove one more #ifdef.

oops.
It also means that 32-bit will print one more line at the
end of pagefault triggered oopses:

Which is generally good information to be seen in partial-dump
digital-camera jpegs ;-)
The downside is the somewhat more complex critical path. Both
variants have been tested well meanwhile by kernel developers
crashing their boxes so i dont think this is a practical worry.

x86: use the right protections for split-up pagetables
Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel
ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD
itself having been marked read-only as well in
split_large_page().
The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the
reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard
(and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE.
The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and
incorrect concept at the page table level - because the
pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot
'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any
mixture of protections.
With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections
get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching
or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined
protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive
(or permissive) protections will control it.
Also update the comment.
This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible
problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to
trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really
large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing.
[ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing
the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not
realized back then. ]

More user reports show that the overwriting of the EEPROM is not
triggered by using this driver but by installing Linux, and that the
installation of any other operating system (even one without any CMI8788
driver) has the same effect. In other words, the presence of this
driver does not have any effect on the occurrence of the error. (So
far, the available evidence seems to point to a BIOS bug.)
Furthermore, it turns out that the EEPROM chip is protected against
stray write commands by the command format and by requiring a separate
write-enable command, so the error scenario in the previous commit (that
SPI writes can be misinterpreted as an EEPROM write command) is not even
theoretically possible.
The mixer control that was removed as a consequence of the previous
commit can only be partially emulated in userspace, which also means it
cannot be seen be the in-kernel OSS API emulation, so it is better to
revert that change.

Some BIOSes report 0x3f3 as a motherboard resource. The PNP system driver
reserves that, which causes a conflict when the floppy driver requests
0x3f2-0x3f5 later.

So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers
the problem.
This patch:
Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include
files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used.
I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy.
This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h
After this,
if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
-> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h
else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
-> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c
else
-> per-arch back end function will be called.
The cause is after alloc_super() and then retry, an old entry in list
fs_supers is found, so grab_super(old) is called, but both functions hold
s_umount lock:
struct super_block *sget(...)
{
...
retry:
spin_lock(&sb_lock);
if (test) {
list_for_each_entry(old, &type->fs_supers, s_instances) {
if (!test(old, data))
continue;
if (!grab_super(old)) <--- 2nd: down_write(&old->s_umount);
goto retry;
if (s)
destroy_super(s);
return old;
}
}
if (!s) {
spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
s = alloc_super(type); <--- 1th: down_write(&s->s_umount)
if (!s)
return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
goto retry;
}
...
}
It seems like a false positive, and seems like VFS but not cgroup needs to
be fixed.
Peter said:
We can simply put the new s_umount instance in a but lockdep doesn't
particularly cares about subclass order.
If there's any issue with the callers of sget() assuming the s_umount lock
being of sublcass 0, then there is another annotation we can use to fix
that, but lets not bother with that if this is sufficient.

atmel_serial might lose modem status change
I found a problem of handling of modem status of atmel_serial driver.
With the commit 1ecc26 ("atmel_serial: split the interrupt handler"),
handling of modem status signal was splitted into two parts. The
atmel_tasklet_func() compares new status with irq_status_prev, but
irq_status_prev is not correct if signal status was changed while the port
is closed.
Here is a sequence to cause problem:
1. Remote side sets CTS (and DSR).
2. Local side close the port.
3. Local side clears RTS and DTR.
4. Remote side clears CTS and DSR.
5. Local side reopen the port. hw_stopped becomes 1.
6. Local side sets RTS and DTR.
7. Remote side sets CTS and DSR.
Then CTS change interrupt can be received, but since CTS bit in
irq_status_prev and new status is same, uart_handle_cts_change() will not
be called (so hw_stopped will not be cleared, i.e. cannot send any data).
I suppose irq_status_prev should be initialized at somewhere in open
sequence.
Itai Levi pointed out that we need to initialize atmel_port->irq_status
as well here. His analysis is as follows:
> Regarding the second part of the patch (which resets irq_status_prev),
> it turns out that both versions of the patch (mine and Atsushi's)
> still leave enough room for faulty behavior when opening the port.
>
> This is because we are not resetting both irq_status_prev and
> irq_status in atmel_startup() to CSR, which leads faulty behavior in
> the following sequences:
>
> First case:
> 1. closing the port while CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed)
> 2. setting CTS line = 0 (TX allowed)
> 3. opening the port
> 4. transmitting one char
> 5. Cannot transmit more chars, although CTS line is 0
>
> Second case:
> 1. closing the port while CTS line = 0 (TX allowed)
> 2. setting CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed)
> 3. opening the port
> 4. receiving some chars
> 5. Now we can transmit, although CTS line is 1
>
> This reason for this is that the tasklet is scheduled as a result of
> TX or RX interrupts (not a status change!), in steps 4 above. Inside
> the tasklet, the atmel_port->irq_status (which holds the value from

atmel-mci: fix initialization of dma slave data
The conversion of atmel-mci to dma_request_channel missed the
initialization of the channel dma_slave information. The filter_fn passed
to dma_request_channel is responsible for initializing the channel's
private data. This implementation has the additional benefit of enabling
a generic client-channel data passing mechanism.

lis3lv02d: support both one- and two-byte sensors
Sensors responding with 0x3B to WHO_AM_I only have one data register per
direction, thus returning a signed byte from the position which is
occupied by the MSB in sensors responding with 0x3A.
Since multiple sensors share the reply to WHO_AM_I, we rename the defines
to better indicate what they identify (family of single and double
precision sensors).
We support both kind of sensors by checking for the sensor type on init
and defining appropriate data-access routines and sensor limits (for the
joystick) depending on what we find.

mm: task dirty accounting fix
YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for
cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty).
Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is
called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback.
So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to
exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented.

seq_file: properly cope with pread
Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the
offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is
broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread.
To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we
know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to
read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to
the offset user space wanted.
