This driver uses an old DMA API and it is likely broken on recent kernels. Nobody cared enough to fix it - Media bus format moved to a separate header, as DRM will also use the definitions there - mem2mem_testdev were renamed to vim2m, in order to use the same naming convention taken by the other virtual test driver (vivid) - Added a new driver for coda SoC (coda-jpeg) - The cx88 driver got converted to use videobuf2 core - Make DMABUF export buffer to work with DMA Scatter/Gather and Vmalloc cores - Lots of other fixes, improvements and cleanups on the drivers. * tag 'media/v3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (384 commits) [media] mn88473: One function call less in mn88473_init() after error [media] mn88473: Remove uneeded check before release_firmware() [media] lirc_zilog: Deletion of unnecessary checks before vfree() [media] MAINTAINERS: Add myself as img-ir maintainer [media] img-ir: Don't set driver's module owner [media] img-ir: Depend on METAG or MIPS or COMPILE_TEST [media] img-ir/hw: Drop [un]register_decoder declarations [media] img-ir/hw: Fix potential deadlock stopping timer [media] img-ir/hw: Always read data to clear buffer [media] redrat3: ensure dma is setup properly [media] ddbridge: remove unneeded check before dvb_unregister_device() [media] si2157: One function call less in si2157_init() after error [media] tuners: remove uneeded checks before release_firmware() [media] arm: omap2: rx51-peripherals: fix build warning [media] stv090x: add an extra protetion against buffer overflow [media] stv090x: Remove an unreachable code [media] stv090x: Some whitespace cleanups [media] em28xx: checkpatch cleanup: whitespaces/new lines cleanups [media] si2168: add support for firmware files in new format [media] si2168: debug printout for firmware version ...

The most important part of it to me is the introduction of a unified interface for accessing device properties provided by platform firmware. It works with Device Trees and ACPI in a uniform way and drivers using it need not worry about where the properties come from as long as the platform firmware (either DT or ACPI) makes them available. It covers both devices and "bare" device node objects without struct device representation as that turns out to be necessary in some cases. This has been in the works for quite a few months (and development cycles) and has been approved by all of the relevant maintainers. On top of that, some drivers are switched over to the new interface (at25, leds-gpio, gpio_keys_polled) and some additional changes are made to the core GPIO subsystem to allow device drivers to manipulate GPIOs in the "canonical" way on platforms that provide GPIO information in their ACPI tables, but don't assign names to GPIO lines (in which case the driver needs to do that on the basis of what it knows about the device in question). That also has been approved by the GPIO core maintainers and the rfkill driver is now going to use it. Second is support for hardware P-states in the intel_pstate driver. It uses CPUID to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor in which case it will be enabled by default. However, it can be disabled entirely from the kernel command line if necessary. Next is support for a platform firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms. That interface is used for manipulating power resources and for thermal management: sensor temperature reporting, trip point setting and so on. Also the ACPI core is now going to support the _DEP configuration information in a limited way. Basically, _DEP it supposed to reflect off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices which may be very indirect, like when AML for one device accesses locations in an operation region handled by another device's driver (usually, the device depended on this way is a serial bus or GPIO controller). The support added this time is sufficient to make the ACPI battery driver work on Asus T100A, but it is general enough to be able to cover some other use cases in the future. Finally, we have a new cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor. In addition to the above, there are fixes and cleanups all over the place as usual and a traditional ACPICA update to a recent upstream release. As far as the fixes go, the ACPI LPSS (Low-power Subsystem) driver for Intel platforms should be able to handle power management of the DMA engine correctly, the cpufreq-dt driver should interact with the thermal subsystem in a better way and the ACPI backlight driver should handle some more corner cases, among other things. On top of the ACPICA update there are fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code which might lead to some random and strange looking failures on some systems. In the cleanups department the most visible part is the series of commits targeted at getting rid of the CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME configuration option. That was triggered by a discussion regarding the generic power domains code during which we realized that trying to support certain combinations of PM config options was painful and not really worth it, because nobody would use them in production anyway. For this reason, we decided to make CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and that lead to the conclusion that the latter became redundant and CONFIG_PM could be used instead of it. The material here makes that replacement in a major part of the tree, but there will be at least one more batch of that in the second part of the merge window. Specifics: - Support for retrieving device properties information from ACPI _DSD device configuration objects and a unified device properties interface for device drivers (and subsystems) on top of that. As stated above, this works with Device Trees and ACPI and allows device drivers to be written in a platform firmware (DT or ACPI) agnostic way. The at25, leds-gpio and gpio_keys_polled drivers are now going to use this new interface and the GPIO subsystem is additionally modified to allow device drivers to assign names to GPIO resources returned by ACPI _CRS objects (in case _DSD is not present or does not provide the expected data). The changes in this set are mostly from Mika Westerberg, Rafael J Wysocki, Aaron Lu, and Darren Hart with some fixes from others (Fabio Estevam, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Support for Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) as described in Volume 3, section 14.4, of the Intel SDM in the intel_pstate driver. CPUID is used to detect whether or not the feature is supported by the processor. If supported, it will be enabled automatically unless the intel_pstate=no_hwp switch is present in the kernel command line. From Dirk Brandewie. - New Intel Broadwell-H ID for intel_pstate (Dirk Brandewie). - Support for firmware interface based on ACPI operation regions used by the PMIC chips on the Intel Baytrail-T and Baytrail-T-CR platforms for power resource control and thermal management (Aaron Lu). - Limited support for retrieving off-the-hierarchy dependencies between devices from ACPI _DEP device configuration objects and deferred probing support for the ACPI battery driver based on the _DEP information to make that driver work on Asus T100A (Lan Tianyu). - New cpufreq driver for the Loongson1B processor (Kelvin Cheung). - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20141107 which only affects tools (Bob Moore). - Fixes for race conditions in the ACPICA's interrupt handling code and in the ACPI code related to system suspend and resume (Lv Zheng and Rafael J Wysocki). - ACPI core fix for an RCU-related issue in the ioremap() regions management code that slowed down significantly after CPUs had been allowed to enter idle states even if they'd had RCU callbakcs queued and triggered some problems in certain proprietary graphics driver (and elsewhere). The fix replaces synchronize_rcu() in that code with synchronize_rcu_expedited() which makes the issue go away. From Konstantin Khlebnikov. - ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver fix to handle power management of the DMA engine included into the LPSS correctly. The problem is that the DMA engine doesn't have ACPI PM support of its own and it simply is turned off when the last LPSS device having ACPI PM support goes into D3cold. To work around that, the PM domain used by the ACPI LPSS driver is redesigned so at least one device with ACPI PM support will be on as long as the DMA engine is in use. From Andy Shevchenko. - ACPI backlight driver fix to avoid using it on "Win8-compatible" systems where it doesn't work and where it was used by default by mistake (Aaron Lu). - Assorted minor ACPI core fixes and cleanups from Tomasz Nowicki, Sudeep Holla, Huang Rui, Hanjun Guo, Fabian Frederick, and Ashwin Chaugule (mostly related to the upcoming ARM64 support). - Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) power capping driver fixes and improvements including new processor IDs (Jacob Pan). - Generic power domains modification to power up domains after attaching devices to them to meet the expectations of device drivers and bus types assuming devices to be accessible at probe time (Ulf Hansson). - Preliminary support for controlling device clocks from the generic power domains core code and modifications of the ARM/shmobile platform to use that feature (Ulf Hansson). - Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the generic power domains core code (Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Assorted minor fixes and cleanups of the device clocks control code in the PM core (Geert Uytterhoeven, Grygorii Strashko). - Consolidation of device power management Kconfig options by making CONFIG_PM_SLEEP select CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and removing the latter which is now redundant (Rafael J Wysocki and Kevin Hilman). That is the first batch of the changes needed for this purpose. - Core device runtime power management support code cleanup related to the execution of callbacks (Andrzej Hajda). - cpuidle ARM support improvements (Lorenzo Pieralisi). - cpuidle cleanup related to the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_VALID flag and a new MAINTAINERS entry for ARM Exynos cpuidle (Daniel Lezcano and Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz). - New cpufreq driver callback (->ready) to be executed when the cpufreq core is ready to use a given policy object and cpufreq-dt driver modification to use that callback for cooling device registration (Viresh Kumar). - cpufreq core fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar, Vince Hsu, James Geboski, Tomeu Vizoso). - Assorted fixes and cleanups in the cpufreq-pcc, intel_pstate, cpufreq-dt, pxa2xx cpufreq drivers (Lenny Szubowicz, Ethan Zhao, Stefan Wahren, Petr Cvek). - OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework modification to allow OPPs to be removed too and update of a few cpufreq drivers (cpufreq-dt, exynos5440, imx6q, cpufreq) to remove OPPs (added during initialization) on driver removal (Viresh Kumar). - Hibernation core fixes and cleanups (Tina Ruchandani and Markus Elfring). - PM Kconfig fix related to CPU power management (Pankaj Dubey). - cpupower tool fix (Prarit Bhargava)" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (120 commits) i2c-omap / PM: Drop CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME from i2c-omap.c dmaengine / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM tools: cpupower: fix return checks for sysfs_get_idlestate_count() drivers: sh / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM e1000e / igb / PM: Eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME MMC / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM MFD / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM misc / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM media / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM input / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM leds: leds-gpio: Fix multiple instances registration without 'label' property iio / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM hsi / OMAP / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM i2c-hid / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM drm / exynos / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM gpio / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM hwrandom / exynos / PM: Use CONFIG_PM in #ifdef block / PM: Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM USB / PM: Drop CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME from the USB core PM: Merge the SET*_RUNTIME_PM_OPS() macros ...

Previously we were only able to use integer index to find the corresponding GPIO, which is pretty error prone if the order changes. With _DSD we can now query GPIOs using name instead of an integer index, like the below example shows: // Bluetooth device with reset and shutdown GPIOs Device (BTH) { Name (_HID, ...) Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () { GpioIo (Exclusive, PullUp, 0, 0, IoRestrictionInputOnly, "\\_SB.GPO0", 0, ResourceConsumer) {15} GpioIo (Exclusive, PullUp, 0, 0, IoRestrictionInputOnly, "\\_SB.GPO0", 0, ResourceConsumer) {27, 31} }) Name (_DSD, Package () { ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"), Package () { Package () {"reset-gpio", Package() {^BTH, 1, 1, 0 }}, Package () {"shutdown-gpio", Package() {^BTH, 0, 0, 0 }}, } }) } The format of the supported GPIO property is: Package () { "name", Package () { ref, index, pin, active_low }} ref - The device that has _CRS containing GpioIo()/GpioInt() resources, typically this is the device itself (BTH in our case). index - Index of the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource in _CRS starting from zero. pin - Pin in the GpioIo()/GpioInt() resource. Typically this is zero. active_low - If 1 the GPIO is marked as active_low. Since ACPI GpioIo() resource does not have field saying whether it is active low or high, the "active_low" argument can be used here. Setting it to 1 marks the GPIO as active low. In our Bluetooth example the "reset-gpio" refers to the second GpioIo() resource, second pin in that resource with the GPIO number of 31. This patch implements necessary support to gpiolib for extracting GPIOs using _DSD device properties.

But many BIOSes don't implement _PXM, which leaves the kernel with no way to discover the device topology, which reduces performance because we can't put memory and processes close to the device. The NUMA node of a PCI device is already exported in the sysfs "numa_node" file. Make that file writable so users can workaround the lack of _PXM methods in the BIOS. For example: echo 3 > /sys/devices/pci0000:ff/0000:03:1f.3/numa_node sets the node for PCI device 0000:03:1f.3. Writing the file emits a FW_BUG warning to encourage users to request firmware updates. It also taints the kernel with TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND because overriding the node incorrectly can cause performance issues.

And some tracers tracing latency also print "!" or "+" just after time to signal overhead, depending on the interval between events. Even it is usually enough to do that, we sometimes need to signal for bigger execution time than 100 micro seconds. For example, I used function graph tracer to detect if there is any case that exit_mm() takes too much time. I did following steps in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. It was easier to detect very large excution time with patched kernel than with original kernel. $ echo exit_mm > set_graph_function $ echo function_graph > current_tracer $ echo > trace $ cat trace_pipe > $LOGFILE ...

To detect very large function exection time caused by either problematic function implementation or scheduling issues, this patch can be useful.

If two or more users modify the regs->ip on the same function entry, one of them will be broken. So they must add IPMODIFY flag and make sure that ftrace_set_filter_ip() succeeds. Note that ftrace doesn't allow ftrace_ops which has IPMODIFY flag to have notrace hash, and the ftrace_ops must have a filter hash (so that the ftrace_ops can hook only specific entries), because it strongly depends on the address and must be allowed for only few selected functions.

Sometimes this is easy to do, other times (such as in the case of a remote admin) it is not trivial to send new images to the user. A much easier method would be a switch to change the WARN() over to a panic. This makes debugging easier in that I can now test the actual image the WARN() was seen on and I do not have to engage in remote debugging. This patch adds a panic_on_warn kernel parameter and /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_warn calls panic() in the warn_slowpath_common() path. The function will still print out the location of the warning. An example of the panic_on_warn output: The first line below is from the WARN_ON() to output the WARN_ON()'s location. After that the panic() output is displayed.
