creates resources with the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED set. Since these resources
cannot be relocated or resized, their alignment is not really defined, and
it is therefore not specified. This causes a problem in pbus_size_mem()

The Chelsio T5 has a PCIe compliance erratum that causes Malformed TLP or
Unexpected Completion errors in some systems, which may cause device access
timeouts.
Per PCIe r3.0, sec 2.2.9, "Completion headers must supply the same values
for the Attribute as were supplied in the header of the corresponding
Request, except as explicitly allowed when IDO is used."
Instead of copying the Attributes from the Request to the Completion, the
T5 always generates Completions with zero Attributes. The receiver of a
Completion whose Attributes don't match the Request may accept it (which
itself seems non-compliant based on sec 2.3.2), or it may handle it as a
Malformed TLP or an Unexpected Completion, which will probably lead to a
device access timeout.
Work around this by disabling "Relaxed Ordering" and "No Snoop" in the Root
Port so it always generate Requests with zero Attributes.
This does affect all other devices which are downstream of that Root Port,
but these are performance optimizations that should not make a functional
difference.
Note that Configuration Space accesses are never supposed to have TLP
Attributes, so we're safe waiting till after any Configuration Space
accesses to do the Root Port "fixup".

The pcibios-irq and MSI both use dev->irq to store the IRQ number. While
the MSI code checks for that and frees the pcibios-irq before overwriting
dev->irq, the pcibios_alloc_irq() function does not.
Usually this is not a problem, as the pcibios-irq is allocated before probe
time of the device and the MSI IRQ is allocted from the driver's probe
path.
But there are PCI devices handled by the core kernel and not by a standard
PCI driver, like the AMD IOMMU for example. For the AMD IOMMU a normal PCI
device driver does not make sense, because a driver can be forcibly unbound
from its device, which is not a good idea for an IOMMU.
Nevertheless the PCI core code tries to match the PCI device implementing
the AMD IOMMU against drivers, and allocates/frees a pcibios IRQ every time
it tries out a new driver. This overwrites the dev->irq field set by
pci_enable_msi() and sets it to 0 in the end (because the probe fails and
the pcibios-irq is freed again).
On suspend/resume this breaks the kernel, because the IRQ descriptor for
IRQ 0 is NULL.
Fix this by not allocating a pcibios-irq when MSI is already active. This
also has the benefit, that a device claimed by the core kernel can not be
probed by a PCI driver later.

irqbalance uses sysfs attributes to populate its internal database, which
is then used to bind the IRQ to the appropriate NUMA node.
On a device accepting multiple MSIs and with interrupt remapping enabled,
only the first IRQ entry is exported in the "msi_irqs" directory. This
results in irqbalance having no clue of the NUMA affinity for the extra
IRQs, so it can't bind them to the correct node.
Export all MSI interrupts as sysfs attributes when relevant.

Here we use that support and extend it to PCI driver registration, so where

similar fashion. Existing code that is clearly non-modular can be updated
with the simple mapping of
module_pci_driver(...) ---> builtin_pci_driver(...)
We've essentially cloned the former to make the latter, and taken out the
remove/module_exit parts since those never get used in a non-modular build

If pci_assign_resource() fails to assign space for a BAR, we may restore

The last two lines should contain the actual BAR address, not the size.
Clear IORESOURCE_UNSET so we print the address. If requesting the
firmware-assigned resource fails, mark it IORESOURCE_UNSET again.
This is a cosmetic change to clarify the message: previously, if
pci_revert_fw_address() succeeded, pci_assign_resource() cleared
IORESOURCE_UNSET anyway, so this isn't really a functional change.

happen when powering up devices when resuming after suspend.

rq_data_dir() returns either READ or WRITE (0 == READ, 1 == WRITE), not
a boolean value.
Now, admittedly the "!= 0" doesn't really change the value (0 stays as
zero, 1 stays as one), but it's not only redundant, it confuses gcc, and
causes gcc to warn about the construct
switch (rq_data_dir(req)) {
case READ:
...
case WRITE:
...
that we have in a few drivers.
Now, the gcc warning is silly and stupid (it seems to warn not about the
switch value having a different type from the case statements, but about
_any_ boolean switch value), but in this case the code itself is silly
and stupid too, so let's just change it, and get rid of warnings like
this:
drivers/block/hd.c: In function ‘hd_request’:
drivers/block/hd.c:630:11: warning: switch condition has boolean value [-Wswitch-bool]
switch (rq_data_dir(req)) {
The odd '!= 0' came in when "cmd_flags" got turned into a "u64" in
commit 5953316dbf ("block: make rq->cmd_flags be 64-bit") and is
presumably because the old code (that just did a logical 'and' with 1)
would then end up making the type of rq_data_dir() be u64 too.
But if we want to retain the old regular integer type, let's just cast
the result to 'int' rather than use that rather odd '!= 0'.

Fix up the writeback plugging introduced in commit d353d7587d
("writeback: plug writeback at a high level") that then caused problems
due to the unplug happening with a spinlock held.
* writeback-plugging:
writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and writeback_inodes_wb()
Revert "writeback: plug writeback at a high level"
We had to revert the pluggin in writeback_sb_inodes() because the
wb->list_lock is held, but we could easily plug at a higher level before
taking that lock, and unplug after releasing it. This does that.
Chris will run performance numbers, just to verify that this approach is
comparable to the alternative (we could just drop and re-take the lock
around the blk_finish_plug() rather than these two commits.
I'd have preferred waiting for actual performance numbers before picking
one approach over the other, but I don't want to release rc1 with the
known "sleeping function called from invalid context" issue, so I'll
pick this cleanup version for now. But if the numbers show that we
really want to plug just at the writeback_sb_inodes() level, and we
should just play ugly games with the spinlock, we'll switch to that.

Commit 6b0f68e32e ("mm: add utility for early copy from unmapped ram")
introduces a function copy_from_early_mem() into mm/early_ioremap.c
which itself calls early_memremap()/early_memunmap(). However, since
early_memunmap() has not been declared yet at this point in the .c file,
nor by any explicitly included header files, we are depending on a
transitive include of asm/early_ioremap.h to declare it, which is
fragile.
So instead, include this header explicitly.

Here is an implementation of a new system call, sys_membarrier(), which
executes a memory barrier on all threads running on the system. It is
implemented by calling synchronize_sched(). It can be used to
distribute the cost of user-space memory barriers asymmetrically by
transforming pairs of memory barriers into pairs consisting of
sys_membarrier() and a compiler barrier. For synchronization primitives
that distinguish between read-side and write-side (e.g. userspace RCU
[1], rwlocks), the read-side can be accelerated significantly by moving
the bulk of the memory barrier overhead to the write-side.
The existing applications of which I am aware that would be improved by
this system call are as follows:
* Through Userspace RCU library (http://urcu.so)
- DNS server (Knot DNS) https://www.knot-dns.cz/
- Network sniffer (http://netsniff-ng.org/)
- Distributed object storage (https://sheepdog.github.io/sheepdog/)
- User-space tracing (http://lttng.org)
- Network storage system (https://www.gluster.org/)
- Virtual routers (https://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/DPDK_RCU_0MQ.pdf)
- Financial software (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/23/189)
Those projects use RCU in userspace to increase read-side speed and
scalability compared to locking. Especially in the case of RCU used by
libraries, sys_membarrier can speed up the read-side by moving the bulk of
the memory barrier cost to synchronize_rcu().
* Direct users of sys_membarrier
- core dotnet garbage collector (https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/198)
Microsoft core dotnet GC developers are planning to use the mprotect()
side-effect of issuing memory barriers through IPIs as a way to implement
Windows FlushProcessWriteBuffers() on Linux. They are referring to
sys_membarrier in their github thread, specifically stating that
sys_membarrier() is what they are looking for.
To explain the benefit of this scheme, let's introduce two example threads:
Thread A (non-frequent, e.g. executing liburcu synchronize_rcu())
Thread B (frequent, e.g. executing liburcu
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock())
In a scheme where all smp_mb() in thread A are ordering memory accesses
with respect to smp_mb() present in Thread B, we can change each
smp_mb() within Thread A into calls to sys_membarrier() and each
smp_mb() within Thread B into compiler barriers "barrier()".
Before the change, we had, for each smp_mb() pairs:
Thread A Thread B
previous mem accesses previous mem accesses
smp_mb() smp_mb()
following mem accesses following mem accesses
After the change, these pairs become:
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier() barrier()
follow mem accesses follow mem accesses
As we can see, there are two possible scenarios: either Thread B memory
accesses do not happen concurrently with Thread A accesses (1), or they
do (2).
1) Non-concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses:
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier()
follow mem accesses
prev mem accesses
barrier()
follow mem accesses
In this case, thread B accesses will be weakly ordered. This is OK,
because at that point, thread A is not particularly interested in
ordering them with respect to its own accesses.
2) Concurrent Thread A vs Thread B accesses
Thread A Thread B
prev mem accesses prev mem accesses
sys_membarrier() barrier()
follow mem accesses follow mem accesses
In this case, thread B accesses, which are ensured to be in program
order thanks to the compiler barrier, will be "upgraded" to full
smp_mb() by synchronize_sched().
* Benchmarks
On Intel Xeon E5405 (8 cores)
(one thread is calling sys_membarrier, the other 7 threads are busy
looping)
1000 non-expedited sys_membarrier calls in 33s =3D 33 milliseconds/call.
* User-space user of this system call: Userspace RCU library
Both the signal-based and the sys_membarrier userspace RCU schemes
permit us to remove the memory barrier from the userspace RCU
rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() primitives, thus significantly
accelerating them. These memory barriers are replaced by compiler
barriers on the read-side, and all matching memory barriers on the
write-side are turned into an invocation of a memory barrier on all
active threads in the process. By letting the kernel perform this
synchronization rather than dumbly sending a signal to every process
threads (as we currently do), we diminish the number of unnecessary wake
ups and only issue the memory barriers on active threads. Non-running
threads do not need to execute such barrier anyway, because these are
implied by the scheduler context switches.
Results in liburcu:
Operations in 10s, 6 readers, 2 writers:
memory barriers in reader: 1701557485 reads, 2202847 writes
signal-based scheme: 9830061167 reads, 6700 writes
sys_membarrier: 9952759104 reads, 425 writes
sys_membarrier (dyn. check): 7970328887 reads, 425 writes
The dynamic sys_membarrier availability check adds some overhead to
the read-side compared to the signal-based scheme, but besides that,
sys_membarrier slightly outperforms the signal-based scheme. However,
this non-expedited sys_membarrier implementation has a much slower grace
period than signal and memory barrier schemes.
Besides diminishing the number of wake-ups, one major advantage of the
membarrier system call over the signal-based scheme is that it does not
need to reserve a signal. This plays much more nicely with libraries,
and with processes injected into for tracing purposes, for which we
cannot expect that signals will be unused by the application.
An expedited version of this system call can be added later on to speed
up the grace period. Its implementation will likely depend on reading
the cpu_curr()->mm without holding each CPU's rq lock.
This patch adds the system call to x86 and to asm-generic.

MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED
Execute a memory barrier on all threads running on the system.
Upon return from system call, the caller thread is ensured that
all running threads have passed through a state where all memory
accesses to user-space addresses match program order between
entry to and return from the system call (non-running threads
are de facto in such a state). This covers threads from all pro=E2=80=90
cesses running on the system. This command returns 0.
The flags argument needs to be 0. For future extensions.
All memory accesses performed in program order from each targeted
thread is guaranteed to be ordered with respect to sys_membarrier(). If
we use the semantic "barrier()" to represent a compiler barrier forcing
memory accesses to be performed in program order across the barrier,
and smp_mb() to represent explicit memory barriers forcing full memory
ordering across the barrier, we have the following ordering table for
each pair of barrier(), sys_membarrier() and smp_mb():
The pair ordering is detailed as (O: ordered, X: not ordered):
barrier() smp_mb() sys_membarrier()
barrier() X X O
smp_mb() X O O
sys_membarrier() O O O
RETURN VALUE
On success, these system calls return zero. On error, -1 is returned,
and errno is set appropriately. For a given command, with flags
argument set to 0, this system call is guaranteed to always return the
same value until reboot.
ERRORS
ENOSYS System call is not implemented.
EINVAL Invalid arguments.

Fix the following warning when compiling extract-cert:
scripts/extract-cert.c: In function `write_cert':
scripts/extract-cert.c:89:2: warning: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Wformat-security]
ERR(!i2d_X509_bio(wb, x509), cert_dst);
^
whereby the ERR() macro is taking cert_dst as the format string. "%s"
should be used as the format string as the path could contain special
characters.
