046425f8c4 V4L/DVB (9898): v4l2: Add privacy control
The privacy control prevents video from being acquired by the camera. A true
value indicates that no image can be captured. Devices that implement the
privacy control must support read access and may support write access.

36994e58a4 tracing/kmemtrace: normalize the raw tracer event to the unified tracing API
Impact: new tracer plugin

This patch adapts kmemtrace raw events tracing to the unified tracing API.

To enable and use this tracer, just do the following:

 echo kmemtrace > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
 cat /debugfs/tracing/trace

You will have the following output:

That was to stay backward compatible with the format output produced in
inux/tracepoint.h.

This is the default ouput, but note that I tried something else.

If you change an option:

echo kmem_minimalistic > /debugfs/trace_options

and then cat /debugfs/trace, you will have the following output:

Yeah I shall confess kmem_minimalistic should be: kmem_alternative.

Whatever, I find it more readable but this a personal opinion of course.
We can drop it if you want.

On the ALLOC/FREE column, + means an allocation and - a free.

On the type column, you have K = kmalloc, C = cache, P = page

I would like the flags to be GFP_* strings but that would not be easy to not
break the column with strings....

About the node...it seems to always be -1. I don't know why but that shouldn't
be difficult to find.

I moved linux/tracepoint.h to trace/tracepoint.h as well. I think that would
be more easy to find the tracer headers if they are all in their common
directory.

c29834584e virtio_console: support console resizing
this patch uses the new hvc callback hvc_resize to set the window size
which allows to change the tty size of hvc_console via a hvc_resize
function.

I have added a new feature bit VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_SIZE. The driver will
change the window size on tty open and via the config_changed callback
of the transport. Currently lguest and kvm_s390 have not implemented this
callback, but the callback can be implemented at a later point in time.

e12f0102ac cpumask: Use nr_cpu_ids in seq_cpumask
Impact: cleanup, futureproof

nr_cpu_ids is the (badly named) runtime limit on possible CPU numbers;
ie. the variable version of NR_CPUS.

With the new cpumask operators, only bits less than this are defined.
So we should use it everywhere, rather than NR_CPUS.  Eventually this
will make it possible to allocate cpumasks of the minimal length at runtime.

54b11e6d57 cpumask: smp_call_function_many()
Impact: Implementation change to remove cpumask_t from stack.

Actually change smp_call_function_mask() to smp_call_function_many().
We avoid cpumasks on the stack in this version.

(S390 has its own version, but that's going away apparently).

We have to do some dancing to figure out if 0 or 1 other cpus are in
the mask supplied and the online mask without allocating a tmp
cpumask.  It's still fairly cheap.

We allocate the cpumask at the end of the call_function_data
structure: if allocation fails we fallback to smp_call_function_single
rather than using the baroque quiescing code (which needs a cpumask on
stack).

(Thanks to Hiroshi Shimamoto for spotting several bugs in previous versions!)

3fa4152069 cpumask: make set_cpu_*/init_cpu_* out-of-line
They're only for use in boot/cpu hotplug code anyway, and this avoids
the use of deprecated cpu_*_map.

Stephen Rothwell points out that gcc 4.2.4 (on powerpc at least)
didn't like the cast away of const anyway:

  include/linux/cpumask.h: In function 'set_cpu_possible':
  include/linux/cpumask.h:1052: warning: passing argument 2 of 'cpumask_set_cpu' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

Currently we have NR_CPUS, which is 1 on UP, and CONFIG_NR_CPUS on
SMP.  If we make CONFIG_NR_CPUS always valid (and always 1 on !SMP),
we can skip the middleman.

This also allows us to find and check all the unaudited NR_CPUS usage
as we prepare for v. large NR_CPUS.

To avoid breaking every arch, we cheat and do this for the moment
in the header if the arch doesn't.

* Remove no longer needed save_match() and ide_hwif_t.serialized.

v2:

This patch should fix the incorrect grouping of port(s) from
host(s) that need serialization with port(s) that happen to use
the same IRQ(s) but are from the host(s) that don't need it.

2a2ca6a961 ide: replace the global ide_lock spinlock by per-hwgroup spinlocks (v2)
Now that (almost) all host drivers have been fixed not to abuse ide_lock
and core code usage of ide_lock has been sanitized we may safely replace
ide_lock by per-hwgroup locks.

This patch is partially based on earlier patch from Ravikiran G Thirumalai.

While at it:
- don't use deprecated HWIF() and HWGROUP() macros
- update locking documentation in ide.h

v2:
Add missing spin_lock_init(&hwgroup->lock).  (Noticed by Elias Oltmanns)

917b627d4d sched: create "pushable_tasks" list to limit pushing to one attempt
The RT scheduler employs a "push/pull" design to actively balance tasks
within the system (on a per disjoint cpuset basis).  When a task is
awoken, it is immediately determined if there are any lower priority
cpus which should be preempted.  This is opposed to the way normal
SCHED_OTHER tasks behave, which will wait for a periodic rebalancing
operation to occur before spreading out load.

When a particular RQ has more than 1 active RT task, it is said to
be in an "overloaded" state.  Once this occurs, the system enters
the active balancing mode, where it will try to push the task away,
or persuade a different cpu to pull it over.  The system will stay
in this state until the system falls back below the <= 1 queued RT
task per RQ.

However, the current implementation suffers from a limitation in the
push logic.  Once overloaded, all tasks (other than current) on the
RQ are analyzed on every push operation, even if it was previously
unpushable (due to affinity, etc).  Whats more, the operation stops
at the first task that is unpushable and will not look at items
lower in the queue.  This causes two problems:

1) We can have the same tasks analyzed over and over again during each
   push, which extends out the fast path in the scheduler for no
   gain.  Consider a RQ that has dozens of tasks that are bound to a
   core.  Each one of those tasks will be encountered and skipped
   for each push operation while they are queued.

2) There may be lower-priority tasks under the unpushable task that
   could have been successfully pushed, but will never be considered
   until either the unpushable task is cleared, or a pull operation
   succeeds.  The net result is a potential latency source for mid
   priority tasks.

This patch aims to rectify these two conditions by introducing a new
priority sorted list: "pushable_tasks".  A task is added to the list
each time a task is activated or preempted.  It is removed from the
list any time it is deactivated, made current, or fails to push.

This works because a task only needs to be attempted to push once.
After an initial failure to push, the other cpus will eventually try to
pull the task when the conditions are proper.  This also solves the
problem that we don't completely analyze all tasks due to encountering
an unpushable tasks.  Now every task will have a push attempted (when
appropriate).

This reduces latency both by shorting the critical section of the
rq->lock for certain workloads, and by making sure the algorithm
considers all eligible tasks in the system.

967fc04671 sched: add sched_class->needs_post_schedule() member
We currently run class->post_schedule() outside of the rq->lock, which
means that we need to test for the need to post_schedule outside of
the lock to avoid a forced reacquistion.  This is currently not a problem
as we only look at rq->rt.overloaded.  However, we want to enhance this
going forward to look at more state to reduce the need to post_schedule to
a bare minimum set.  Therefore, we introduce a new member-func called
needs_post_schedule() which tests for the post_schedule condtion without
actually performing the work.  Therefore it is safe to call this
function before the rq->lock is released, because we are guaranteed not
to drop the lock at an intermediate point (such as what post_schedule()
may do).

We will use this later in the series

73cd6af041 kmemtrace: Better alternative to "kmemtrace: fix printk format warnings".
Fix the problem "kmemtrace: fix printk format warnings" attempted to fix,
but resulted in marker-probe format mismatch warnings. Instead of carrying
size_t into probes, we get rid of it by casting to unsigned long, just as
we did with gfp_t.

This way, we don't need to change marker format strings and we don't have
to rely on other format specifiers like "%zu", making for consistent use
of more generic data types (since there are no format specifiers for
gfp_t, for example).

GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in
the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to
inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override
the weak alias with the real thing.

So move all the IRQ handling related __weak symbols to kernel/irq/chip.c.
