A lot of attention was paid to improving the thin-provisioning target's
handling of metadata operation failures and running out of space. A new
'error_if_no_space' feature was added to allow users to error IOs rather
than queue them when either the data or metadata space is exhausted.
Additional fixes/features include:
- a few fixes to properly support thin metadata device resizing
- a solution for reliably waiting for a DM device's embedded kobject to
be released before destroying the device
- old dm-snapshot is updated to use the dm-bufio interface to take
advantage of readahead capabilities that improve snapshot activation
- new dm-cache target tunables to control how quickly data is promoted
to the cache (fast) device
- improved write efficiency of cluster mirror target by combining
userspace flush and mark requests

This patch adds a queue mapping mode to the fanout operation of af_packet
sockets. This allows user space af_packet users to better filter on flows
ingressing and egressing via a specific hardware queue, and avoids the potential
packet reordering that can occur when FANOUT_CPU is being used and irq affinity
varies.

In the cluster evironment, cluster write has poor performance because
userspace_flush() has to contact a userspace program (cmirrord) for
clear/mark/flush requests. But both mark and flush requests require
cmirrord to communicate the message to all the cluster nodes for each
flush call. This behaviour is really slow.
To address this we now merge mark and flush requests together to reduce
the kernel-userspace-kernel time. We allow a new directive,
"integrated_flush" that can be used to instruct the kernel log code to
combine flush and mark requests when directed by userspace. If not
directed by userspace (due to an older version of the userspace code
perhaps), the kernel will function as it did previously - preserving
backwards compatibility. Additionally, flush requests are performed
lazily when only clear requests exist.

There are also a few patches which help to improve efficiency

- Optimize ring-buffer writes (Peter Zijlstra)
Tooling side changes, user visible:
- 'perf diff':
- Add column colouring improvements (Ramkumar Ramachandra)

- Add guest related improvements, including allowing to specify a
directory with guest specific /proc information (Dongsheng Yang)
- Add shell completion support (Ramkumar Ramachandra)
- Add '-v' option (Dongsheng Yang)
- Support --guestmount (Dongsheng Yang)
- 'perf probe':
- Support showing source code, asking for variables to be collected
at probe time and other 'perf probe' operations that use DWARF
information.
This supports only binaries with debugging information at this
time, detached debuginfo (aka debuginfo packages) support should
come in later patches (Masami Hiramatsu)
- 'perf record':
- Rename --no-delay option to --no-buffering, better reflecting its
purpose and freeing up '--delay' to take the place of
'--initial-delay', so that 'record' and 'stat' are consistent
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Default the -t/--thread option to no inheritance (Adrian Hunter)
- Make per-cpu mmaps the default (Adrian Hunter)
- 'perf report':
- Improve callchain processing performance (Frederic Weisbecker)
- Retain bfd reference to lookup source line numbers, greatly
optimizing, among other use cases, 'perf report -s srcline'
(Adrian Hunter)
- Improve callchain processing performance even more (Namhyung Kim)
- Add a perf.data file header window in the 'perf report' TUI,
associated with the 'i' hotkey, providing a counterpart to the
--header option in the stdio UI (Namhyung Kim)
- 'perf script':
- Add an option in 'perf script' to print the source line number
(Adrian Hunter)
- Add --header/--header-only options to 'script' and 'report', the
default is not tho show the header info, but as this has been the
default for some time, leave a single line explaining how to
obtain that information (Jiri Olsa)
- Add options to show comm, fork, exit and mmap PERF_RECORD_ events

- Print callchains and symbols if they exist (David Ahern)
- 'perf timechart'

- Print pid along the name
- Add support for CPU topology
- Add new option --highlight'ing threads, be it by name or, if a
numeric value is provided, that run more than given duration
(Stanislav Fomichev)
- 'perf top':
- Make 'perf top -g' refer to callchains, for consistency with
other tools (David Ahern)
- 'perf trace':
- Handle old kernels where the "raw_syscalls" tracepoints were
called plain "syscalls" (David Ahern)
- Remove thread summary coloring, by Pekka Enberg.
- Honour -m option in 'trace', the tool was offering the option to
set the mmap size, but wasn't using it when doing the actual mmap
on the events file descriptors (Jiri Olsa)

build-test) (Namhyung Kim)
- Get rid of die() and friends (good riddance!) in libtraceevent
(Namhyung Kim)
- Fix cross build problems related to pkgconfig and CROSS_COMPILE not
being propagated to the feature tests, leading to features being
tested in the host and then being enabled on the target (Mark
Rutland)
- Improve forked workload error reporting by sending the errno in the
signal data queueing integer field, using sigqueue and by doing the
signal setup in the evlist methods, removing open coded equivalents
in various tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Do more auto exit cleanup chores in the 'evlist' destructor, so
that the tools don't have to all do that sequence (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
- Pack 'struct perf_session_env' and 'struct trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)

- Auto allocate annotation histogram data structures (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- No need to test against NULL before calling free, also set freed
memory in struct pointers to NULL, to help fixing use after free
bugs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Rename some struct DSO binary_type related members and methods, to
clarify its purpose and need for differentiation (symtab_type, ie
one is about the files .text, CFI, etc, i.e. its binary contents,
and the other is about where the symbol table came from (Arnaldo

- Get rid of some more panic() like error handling in libtraceevent.
(Namhyung Kim)
- Get rid of panic() like calls in libtraceevent (Namyung Kim)
- Start carving out symbol parsing routines (perf, just moving

In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing
to let open() succeed.
Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in
case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0.
As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is
not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to
those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable,
read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway.

When adding/modifying an IPv6 address, the userspace application needs
a way to suppress adding a prefix route. This is for example relevant
together with IFA_F_MANAGERTEMPADDR, where userspace creates autoconf
generated addresses, but depending on on-link, no route for the
prefix should be added.

Since commit d70ed2e4fa
MD: Allow restarting an interrupted incremental recovery.
we don't write out the metadata to devices while they are recovering.
This had a good reason, but has unfortunate consequences. This patch
changes things to make them work better.
At issue is what happens if the array is shut down while a recovery is
happening, particularly a bitmap-guided recovery.
Ideally the recovery should pick up where it left off.
However the metadata cannot represent the state "A recovery is in
process which is guided by the bitmap".
Before the above mentioned commit, we wrote metadata to the device
which said "this is being recovered and it is up to <here>". So after
a restart, a full recovery (not bitmap-guided) would happen from
where-ever it was up to.
After the commit the metadata wasn't updated so it still said "This
device is fully in sync with <this> event count". That leads to a
bitmap-based recovery following the whole bitmap, which should be a
lot less work than a full recovery from some starting point. So this
was an improvement.
However updates some metadata but not all leads to other problems.
In particular, the metadata written to the fully-up-to-date device
record that the array has all devices present (even though some are
recovering). So on restart, mdadm wants to find all devices and
expects them to have current event counts.
Obviously it doesn't (some have old event counts) so (when assembling
with --incremental) it waits indefinitely for the rest of the expected
devices.
It really is wrong to not update all the metadata together. Do that
is bound to cause confusion.
Instead, we should make it possible to record the truth in the
metadata. i.e. we need to be able to record that a device is being
recovered based on the bitmap.
We already have a Feature flag to say that recovery is happening. We
now add another one to say that it is a bitmap-based recovery.
With this we can remove the code that disables the write-out of
metadata on some devices.
So this patch:
- moves the setting of 'saved_raid_disk' from add_new_disk to
the validate_super methods. This makes sure it is always set
properly, both when adding a new device to an array, and when
assembling an array from a collection of devices.
- Adds a metadata flag MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_BITMAP which is only
used if MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_OFFSET is set, and record that a
bitmap-based recovery is allowed.
This is only present in v1.x metadata. v0.90 doesn't support
devices which are in the middle of recovery at all.
- Only skips writing metadata to Faulty devices.
- Also allows rdev state to be set to "-insync" via sysfs.
This can be used for external-metadata arrays. When the
'role' is set the device is assumed to be in-sync. If, after
setting the role, we set the state to "-insync", the role is
moved to saved_raid_disk which effectively says the device is
partly in-sync with that slot and needs a bitmap recovery.

Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for
SCHED_DEADLINE implementation.
Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their
initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy
are also added where they are needed.
Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called
SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline
First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called
Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate
the behaviour of tasks between each other.
The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase
(instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The
expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's
runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed
is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline
is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an
instance) activates plus the relative deadline.
The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute
deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each
task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline
length time interval, avoiding any interference between different
tasks (bandwidth isolation).
Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with
the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new
policy.
To summarize, this patch:
- introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed;
- implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new
scheduling class file;
- provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and
the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl
and the other existing scheduling classes.

Unlike recent modern userspace API such as:
epoll_create1 (EPOLL_CLOEXEC), eventfd (EFD_CLOEXEC),
fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC), inotify_init1 (IN_CLOEXEC),
signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC),
or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC),
perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC
(eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace.
The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow
perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec.
Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor
from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec,
without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the
associated race condition between the current thread and another
thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

added nl80211 vendor-specific events, as we'd discussed at the wireless
summit."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"I have here a rework of the interrupt handling to meet RT kernel
requirements - basically we don't take any lock in the primary interrupt
handler. This gave me a good reason to clean things up a bit on the way.
There is also a fix of the QoS mapping along with a few workarounds for
hardware / firmware issues that are hard to hit.
Three fixes suggested by static analyzers, and other various stuff.
Most importantly, I update the Copyright note to include the new year."
For the bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"More patches to 3.14. The bulk of changes here is the 6LoWPAN support for
Bluetooth LE Devices. The commits that touches net/ieee802154/ are already

Beyond that, ath9k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, and wil6210 get their usual

and there are a handful of other bits here and there.

Introduce an xtables add-on for matching L2TP packets. Supports L2TPv2
and L2TPv3 over IPv4 and IPv6. As well as filtering on L2TP tunnel-id
and session-id, the filtering decision can also include the L2TP
packet type (control or data), protocol version (2 or 3) and
encapsulation type (UDP or IP).
The most common use for this will likely be to filter L2TP data
packets of individual L2TP tunnels or sessions. While a u32 match can
be used, the L2TP protocol headers are such that field offsets differ
depending on bits set in the header, making rules for matching generic
L2TP connections cumbersome. This match extension takes care of all
that.

This patch adds four new fields to directory leaf blocks.
The intent is not to use them in the kernel itself, although
perhaps we may be able to use them as hints at some later date,
but instead to provide more information for debug/fsck use.
One new field adds a pointer to the inode to which the leaf
belongs. This can be useful if the pointer to the leaf block
has become corrupt, as it will allow us to know which inode
this block should be associated with. This field is set when
the leaf is created and never changed over its lifetime.
The second field is a "distance from the hash table" field.
The meaning is as follows:
0 = An old leaf in which this value has not been set
1 = This leaf is pointed to directly from the hash table
2+ = This leaf is part of a chain, pointed to by another leaf
block, the value gives the position in the chain.
The third and fourth fields combine to give a time stamp of
the most recent directory insertion or deletion from this
leaf block. The time stamp is not updated when a new leaf
block is chained from the current one. The code is currently
written such that the timestamp on the dir inode will match
that of the leaf block for the most recent insertion/deletion.
For backwards compatibility, any of these new fields which is
zero should be considered to be "unknown".
