2016-07-29documentation: da9052: Update regulator bindings names to match DA9052/53 ↵Steve Twiss
DTS expectations Buck and LDO binding name changes. The binding names for the regulators have been changed to match the current expectation from existing device tree source files. This fix rectifies the disparity between what currently exists in some .dts[i] board files and what is listed in this binding document. This change re-aligns those differences and also brings the binding document in-line with the expectations of the product datasheet from Dialog Semiconductor. Bucks and LDOs now follow the expected notation: { buck1, buck2, buck3, buck4 } { ldo1, ldo2, ldo3, ldo4, ldo5, ldo6, ldo7, ldo8, ldo9, ldo10 } Signed-off-by: Steve Twiss <stwiss.opensource@diasemi.com> Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: - Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing. The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm. ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers to the memory controller on a power-fail event. Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure". A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been flushed to media. - On-demand ARS (address range scrub). Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a re-scrub at any time. - Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command format. - Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges. - Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem. * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (41 commits) libnvdimm-btt: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "__nd_device_register" nfit: do an ARS scrub on hitting a latent media error nfit: move to nfit/ sub-directory nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demand libnvdimm: register nvdimm_bus devices with an nd_bus driver pmem: clarify a debug print in pmem_clear_poison x86/insn: remove pcommit Revert "KVM: x86: add pcommit support" nfit, tools/testing/nvdimm/: unify shutdown paths libnvdimm: move ->module to struct nvdimm_bus_descriptor nfit: cleanup acpi_nfit_init calling convention nfit: fix _FIT evaluation memory leak + use after free tools/testing/nvdimm: add manufacturing_{date|location} dimm properties tools/testing/nvdimm: add virtual ramdisk range acpi, nfit: treat virtual ramdisk SPA as pmem region pmem: kill __pmem address space pmem: kill wmb_pmem() libnvdimm, pmem: use nvdimm_flush() for namespace I/O writes fs/dax: remove wmb_pmem() libnvdimm, pmem: flush posted-write queues on shutdown ...

2016-07-28mm, vmscan: move lru_lock to the nodeMel Gorman
Node-based reclaim requires node-based LRUs and locking. This is a preparation patch that just moves the lru_lock to the node so later patches are easier to review. It is a mechanical change but note this patch makes contention worse because the LRU lock is hotter and direct reclaim and kswapd can contend on the same lock even when reclaiming from different zones.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi Pull spi updates from Mark Brown: "Quite a lot of cleanup and maintainence work going on this release in various drivers, and also a fix for a nasty locking issue in the core: - A fix for locking issues when external drivers explicitly locked the bus with spi_bus_lock() - we were using the same lock to both control access to the physical bus in multi-threaded I/O operations and exclude multiple callers. Confusion between these two caused us to have scenarios where we were dropping locks. These are fixed by splitting into two separate locks like should have been done originally, making everything much clearer and correct. - Support for DMA in spi_flash_read(). - Support for instantiating spidev on ACPI systems, including some test devices used in Windows validation. - Use of the core DMA mapping functionality in the McSPI driver. - Start of support for ThunderX SPI controllers, involving a very big set of changes to the Cavium driver. - Support for Braswell, Exynos 5433, Kaby Lake, Merrifield, RK3036, RK3228, RK3368 controllers" * tag 'spi-v4.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi: (64 commits) spi: Split bus and I/O locking spi: octeon: Split driver into Octeon specific and common parts spi: octeon: Move include file from arch/mips to drivers/spi spi: octeon: Put register offsets into a struct spi: octeon: Store system clock freqency in struct octeon_spi spi: octeon: Convert driver to use readq()/writeq() functions spi: pic32-sqi: fixup wait_for_completion_timeout return handling spi: pic32: fixup wait_for_completion_timeout return handling spi: rockchip: limit transfers to (64K - 1) bytes spi: xilinx: Return IRQ_NONE if no interrupts were detected spi: xilinx: Handle errors from platform_get_irq() spi: s3c64xx: restore removed comments spi: s3c64xx: add Exynos5433 compatible for ioclk handling spi: s3c64xx: use error code from clk_prepare_enable() spi: s3c64xx: rename goto labels to meaningful names spi: s3c64xx: document the clocks and the clock-name property spi: s3c64xx: add exynos5433 spi compatible spi: s3c64xx: fix reference leak to master in s3c64xx_spi_remove() spi: spi-sh: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue spi: spi-topcliff-pch: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.8 kernel cycle. The big news is the completion of the chardev ABI which I'm very happy about and apart from that it's an ordinary, quite busy cycle. The details are below. The patches are tested in linux-next for some time, patches to other subsystem mostly have ACKs. I got overly ambitious with configureing lines as input for IRQ lines but it turns out that some controllers have their interrupt-enable and input-enabling in orthogonal settings so the assumption that all IRQ lines are input lines does not hold. Oh well, revert and back to the drawing board with that. Core changes: - The big item is of course the completion of the character device ABI. It has now replaced and surpassed the former unmaintainable sysfs ABI: we can now hammer (bitbang) individual lines or sets of lines and read individual lines or sets of lines from userspace, and we can also register to listen to GPIO events from userspace. As a tie-in we have two new tools in tools/gpio: gpio-hammer and gpio-event-mon that illustrate the proper use of the new ABI. As someone said: the wild west days of GPIO are now over. - Continued to remove the pointless ARCH_[WANT_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB Kconfig symbols. I'm patching hexagon, openrisc, powerpc, sh, unicore, ia64 and microblaze. These are either ACKed by their maintainers or patched anyways after a grace period and no response from maintainers. Some archs (ARM) come in from their trees, and others (x86) are still not fixed, so I might send a second pull request to root it out later in this merge window, or just defer to v4.9. - The GPIO tools are moved to the tools build system. New drivers: - New driver for the MAX77620/MAX20024. - New driver for the Intel Merrifield. - Enabled PCA953x for the TI PCA9536. - Enabled PCA953x for the Intel Edison. - Enabled R8A7792 in the RCAR driver. Driver improvements: - The STMPE and F7188x now supports the .get_direction() callback. - The Xilinx driver supports setting multiple lines at once. - ACPI support for the Vulcan GPIO controller. - The MMIO GPIO driver supports device tree probing. - The Acer One 10 is supported through the _DEP ACPI attribute. Cleanups: - A major cleanup of the OF/DT support code.

2016-07-26mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page migrationMinchan Kim
We have allowed migration for only LRU pages until now and it was enough to make high-order pages. But recently, embedded system(e.g., webOS, android) uses lots of non-movable pages(e.g., zram, GPU memory) so we have seen several reports about troubles of small high-order allocation. For fixing the problem, there were several efforts (e,g,. enhance compaction algorithm, SLUB fallback to 0-order page, reserved memory, vmalloc and so on) but if there are lots of non-movable pages in system, their solutions are void in the long run. So, this patch is to support facility to change non-movable pages with movable. For the feature, this patch introduces functions related to migration to address_space_operations as well as some page flags. If a driver want to make own pages movable, it should define three functions which are function pointers of struct address_space_operations. 1. bool (*isolate_page) (struct page *page, isolate_mode_t mode); What VM expects on isolate_page function of driver is to return *true* if driver isolates page successfully. On returing true, VM marks the page as PG_isolated so concurrent isolation in several CPUs skip the page for isolation. If a driver cannot isolate the page, it should return *false*. Once page is successfully isolated, VM uses page.lru fields so driver shouldn't expect to preserve values in that fields. 2. int (*migratepage) (struct address_space *mapping, struct page *newpage, struct page *oldpage, enum migrate_mode); After isolation, VM calls migratepage of driver with isolated page. The function of migratepage is to move content of the old page to new page and set up fields of struct page newpage. Keep in mind that you should indicate to the VM the oldpage is no longer movable via __ClearPageMovable() under page_lock if you migrated the oldpage successfully and returns 0. If driver cannot migrate the page at the moment, driver can return -EAGAIN. On -EAGAIN, VM will retry page migration in a short time because VM interprets -EAGAIN as "temporal migration failure". On returning any error except -EAGAIN, VM will give up the page migration without retrying in this time. Driver shouldn't touch page.lru field VM using in the functions. 3. void (*putback_page)(struct page *); If migration fails on isolated page, VM should return the isolated page to the driver so VM calls driver's putback_page with migration failed page. In this function, driver should put the isolated page back to the own data structure. 4. non-lru movable page flags There are two page flags for supporting non-lru movable page. * PG_movable Driver should use the below function to make page movable under page_lock. void __SetPageMovable(struct page *page, struct address_space *mapping) It needs argument of address_space for registering migration family functions which will be called by VM. Exactly speaking, PG_movable is not a real flag of struct page. Rather than, VM reuses page->mapping's lower bits to represent it. #define PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE 0x2 page->mapping = page->mapping | PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE; so driver shouldn't access page->mapping directly. Instead, driver should use page_mapping which mask off the low two bits of page->mapping so it can get right struct address_space. For testing of non-lru movable page, VM supports __PageMovable function. However, it doesn't guarantee to identify non-lru movable page because page->mapping field is unified with other variables in struct page. As well, if driver releases the page after isolation by VM, page->mapping doesn't have stable value although it has PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE (Look at __ClearPageMovable). But __PageMovable is cheap to catch whether page is LRU or non-lru movable once the page has been isolated. Because LRU pages never can have PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE in page->mapping. It is also good for just peeking to test non-lru movable pages before more expensive checking with lock_page in pfn scanning to select victim. For guaranteeing non-lru movable page, VM provides PageMovable function. Unlike __PageMovable, PageMovable functions validates page->mapping and mapping->a_ops->isolate_page under lock_page. The lock_page prevents sudden destroying of page->mapping. Driver using __SetPageMovable should clear the flag via __ClearMovablePage under page_lock before the releasing the page. * PG_isolated To prevent concurrent isolation among several CPUs, VM marks isolated page as PG_isolated under lock_page. So if a CPU encounters PG_isolated non-lru movable page, it can skip it. Driver doesn't need to manipulate the flag because VM will set/clear it automatically. Keep in mind that if driver sees PG_isolated page, it means the page have been isolated by VM so it shouldn't touch page.lru field. PG_isolated is alias with PG_reclaim flag so driver shouldn't use the flag for own purpose.

2016-07-26zram: use crypto api to check alg availabilitySergey Senozhatsky
There is no way to get a string with all the crypto comp algorithms supported by the crypto comp engine, so we need to maintain our own backends list. At the same time we additionally need to use crypto_has_comp() to make sure that the user has requested a compression algorithm that is recognized by the crypto comp engine. Relying on /proc/crypto is not an options here, because it does not show not-yet-inserted compression modules. Example: modprobe zram cat /proc/crypto | grep -i lz4 modprobe lz4 cat /proc/crypto | grep -i lz4 name : lz4 driver : lz4-generic module : lz4 So the user can't tell exactly if the lz4 is really supported from /proc/crypto output, unless someone or something has loaded it. This patch also adds crypto_has_comp() to zcomp_available_show(). We store all the compression algorithms names in zcomp's `backends' array, regardless the CONFIG_CRYPTO_FOO configuration, but show only those that are also supported by crypto engine. This helps user to know the exact list of compression algorithms that can be used. Example: module lz4 is not loaded yet, but is supported by the crypto engine. /proc/crypto has no information on this module, while zram's `comp_algorithm' lists it: cat /proc/crypto | grep -i lz4 cat /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm [lzo] lz4 deflate lz4hc 842 We still use the `backends' array to determine if the requested compression backend is known to crypto api. This array, however, may not contain some entries, therefore as the last step we call crypto_has_comp() function which attempts to insmod the requested compression algorithm to determine if crypto api supports it. The advantage of this method is that now we permit the usage of out-of-tree crypto compression modules (implementing S/W or H/W compression).

Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe: "This branch also contains core changes. I've come to the conclusion that from 4.9 and forward, I'll be doing just a single branch. We often have dependencies between core and drivers, and it's hard to always split them up appropriately without pulling core into drivers when that happens. That said, this contains: - separate secure erase type for the core block layer, from Christoph. - set of discard fixes, from Christoph. - bio shrinking fixes from Christoph, as a followup up to the op/flags change in the core branch. - map and append request fixes from Christoph. - NVMeF (NVMe over Fabrics) code from Christoph. This is pretty exciting! - nvme-loop fixes from Arnd. - removal of ->driverfs_dev from Dan, after providing a device_add_disk() helper. - bcache fixes from Bhaktipriya and Yijing. - cdrom subchannel read fix from Vchannaiah. - set of lightnvm updates from Wenwei, Matias, Johannes, and Javier. - set of drbd updates and fixes from Fabian, Lars, and Philipp. - mg_disk error path fix from Bart. - user notification for failed device add for loop, from Minfei. - NVMe in general: + NVMe delay quirk from Guilherme. + SR-IOV support and command retry limits from Keith. + fix for memory-less NUMA node from Masayoshi. + use UINT_MAX for discard sectors, from Minfei. + cancel IO fixes from Ming. + don't allocate unused major, from Neil. + error code fixup from Dan. + use constants for PSDT/FUSE from James. + variable init fix from Jay. + fabrics fixes from Ming, Sagi, and Wei. + various fixes" * 'for-4.8/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (115 commits) nvme/pci: Provide SR-IOV support nvme: initialize variable before logical OR'ing it block: unexport various bio mapping helpers scsi/osd: open code blk_make_request target: stop using blk_make_request block: simplify and export blk_rq_append_bio block: ensure bios return from blk_get_request are properly initialized virtio_blk: use blk_rq_map_kern memstick: don't allow REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC requests block: shrink bio size again block: simplify and cleanup bvec pool handling block: get rid of bio_rw and READA block: don't ignore -EOPNOTSUPP blkdev_issue_write_same block: introduce BLKDEV_DISCARD_ZERO to fix zeroout NVMe: don't allocate unused nvme_major nvme: avoid crashes when node 0 is memoryless node. nvme: Limit command retries loop: Make user notify for adding loop device failed nvme-loop: fix nvme-loop Kconfig dependencies nvmet: fix return value check in nvmet_subsys_alloc() ...

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe: - the big change is the cleanup from Mike Christie, cleaning up our uses of command types and modified flags. This is what will throw some merge conflicts - regression fix for the above for btrfs, from Vincent - following up to the above, better packing of struct request from Christoph - a 2038 fix for blktrace from Arnd - a few trivial/spelling fixes from Bart Van Assche - a front merge check fix from Damien, which could cause issues on SMR drives - Atari partition fix from Gabriel - convert cfq to highres timers, since jiffies isn't granular enough for some devices these days. From Jan and Jeff - CFQ priority boost fix idle classes, from me - cleanup series from Ming, improving our bio/bvec iteration - a direct issue fix for blk-mq from Omar - fix for plug merging not involving the IO scheduler, like we do for other types of merges. From Tahsin - expose DAX type internally and through sysfs.
