Currently we clear out the MSR TM bits on signal return assuming that the
signal should never return to an active transaction.
This is bogus as the user may do this. It's most likely the transaction will
be doomed due to a treclaim but that's a problem for the HW not the kernel.
The current code is a legacy of earlier kernel implementations which did
software rollback of active transactions in the kernel. That code has now gone
but we didn't correctly fix up this part of the signals code which still makes
the assumption that it must be returning to a suspended transaction.
This pulls out both MSR TM bits from the user supplied context rather than just
setting TM suspend. We pull out only the bits needed to ensure the user can't
do anything dangerous to the MSR.

Currently sys_sigreturn() is TM unaware. Therefore, if we take a 32 bit signal
without SIGINFO (non RT) inside a transaction, on signal return we don't
restore the signal frame correctly.
This checks if the signal frame being restoring is an active transaction, and
if so, it copies the additional state to ptregs so it can be restored.

The MSR TM controls are in the top 32 bits of the MSR hence on 32 bit signals,
we stick the top half of the MSR in the checkpointed signal context so that the
user can access it.
Unfortunately, we don't currently write anything to the checkpointed signal
context when coming in a from a non transactional process and hence the top MSR
bits can contain junk.
This updates the 32 bit signal handling code to always write something to the
top MSR bits so that users know if the process is transactional or not and the
kernel can use it on signal return.

(Including 64-bit ones)
This allow SW emulation by the kernel of optional instructions
such as fsqrt which aren't implemented on some processors, and
thus fixes some Fedora 19 issues such as Anaconda since the

The decoding of some instructions such as fsqrt{s} was incorrect,
using the wrong registers, and thus could not work.
This fixes it and also adds a couple of place holders for missing

IBM's p series machines provide persistent storage for LPARs through NVRAM.
NVRAM's lnx,oops-log partition is used to log oops messages.
Currently the kernel provides the contents of p-series NVRAM only as a
simple stream of bytes via /dev/nvram, which must be interpreted in user
space by the nvram command in the powerpc-utils package.
This patch set exploits the pstore subsystem to expose oops partition in
NVRAM as a separate file in /dev/pstore. For instance, Oops messages will be
stored in a file named [dmesg-nvram-2]. In case pstore registration fails it
will fall back to kmsg_dump mechanism.
This patch will read/write the oops messages from/to this partition via pstore.

Introduce version and timestamp information in the oops header.
oops_log_info (oops header) holds version (to distinguish between old
and new format oops header), length of the oops text
(compressed or uncompressed) and timestamp.
The version field will sit in the same place as the length in old
headers. version is assigned 5000 (greater than oops partition size)
so that existing tools will refuse to dump new style partitions as
the length is too large. The updated tools will work with both
old and new format headers.

On BookE (Branch taken + Single Step) is as same as Branch Taken
on BookS and in Linux we simulate BookS behavior for BookE as well.
When doing so, in Branch taken handling we want to set DBCR0_IC but
we update the current->thread->dbcr0 and not DBCR0.
Now on 64bit the current->thread.dbcr0 (and other debug registers)
is synchronized ONLY on context switch flow. But after handling
Branch taken in debug exception if we return back to user space
without context switch then single stepping change (DBCR0_ICMP)
does not get written in h/w DBCR0 and Instruction Complete exception
does not happen.
This fixes using ptrace reliably on BookE-PowerPC

VFIO implements platform independent stuff such as
a PCI driver, BAR access (via read/write on a file descriptor
or direct mapping when possible) and IRQ signaling.
The platform dependent part includes IOMMU initialization
and handling. This implements an IOMMU driver for VFIO
which does mapping/unmapping pages for the guest IO and
provides information about DMA window (required by a POWER
guest).

This initializes IOMMU groups based on the IOMMU configuration
discovered during the PCI scan on POWERNV (POWER non virtualized)
platform. The IOMMU groups are to be used later by the VFIO driver,
which is used for PCI pass through.
It also implements an API for mapping/unmapping pages for
guest PCI drivers and providing DMA window properties.
This API is going to be used later by QEMU-VFIO to handle
h_put_tce hypercalls from the KVM guest.
The iommu_put_tce_user_mode() does only a single page mapping
as an API for adding many mappings at once is going to be
added later.
Although this driver has been tested only on the POWERNV
platform, it should work on any platform which supports
TCE tables. As h_put_tce hypercall is received by the host
kernel and processed by the QEMU (what involves calling
the host kernel again), performance is not the best -
circa 220MB/s on 10Gb ethernet network.
To enable VFIO on POWER, enable SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU config
option and configure VFIO as required.

There appears to be no good reason to keep this as 64bit only. It works
on 32bit also, and has checks so that it can work correctly with 32bit
binaries on 64bit hardware which is why I think this works.
I tested this on qemu using the virtex-ml507 machine type.

decrementer_check_overflow
Previously in order to handle the edge sensitive decrementers,
we choose to set the decrementer to 1 to trigger a decrementer
interrupt when re-enabling interrupts. But with the rework of the
lazy EE, we would replay the decrementer interrupt when re-enabling
interrupts if a decrementer interrupt occurs with irq soft-disabled.
So there is no need to trigger a decrementer interrupt in this case
any more.

This will be later used by powerpc THP support. In powerpc we want to use
pgtable for storing the hash index values. So instead of adding them to
mm_context list, we would like to store them in the second half of pmd

We should use pmdp_set_access_flags to update access flags. Archs like
powerpc use extra checks(_PAGE_BUSY) when updating a hugepage PTE. A
set_pmd_at doesn't do those checks. We should use set_pmd_at only when
updating a none hugepage PTE.

Pull ACPI fix from Rafael Wysocki:
"This is an alternative fix for the regression introduced in 3.9 whose
previous fix had to be reverted right before 3.10-rc5, because it
broke one of the Tony's machines.
In this one the check is confined to the ACPI video driver (which is
the only one causing the problem to happen in the first place) and the
Tony's box shouldn't even notice it.
- ACPI fix for an issue causing ACPI video driver to attempt to bind
to devices it shouldn't touch from Rafael J Wysocki."

SGI) have exhibited.
Other than that, there is a patch to avoid a panic with particularly

Pull RCU fixes from Paul McKenney:
"I must confess that this past merge window was not RCU's best showing.
This series contains three more fixes for RCU regressions:
1. A fix to __DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() that causes it to act as an
interrupt from idle rather than as a task switch from idle.
This change is needed due to the recent use of _rcuidle()
tracepoints that can be invoked from interrupt handlers as well
as from idle. Without this fix, invoking _rcuidle() tracepoints
from interrupt handlers results in splats and (more seriously)
confusion on RCU's part as to whether a given CPU is idle or not.
This confusion can in turn result in too-short grace periods and
therefore random memory corruption.
2. A fix to a subtle deadlock that could result due to RCU doing
a wakeup while holding one of its rcu_node structure's locks.
Although the probability of occurrence is low, it really
does happen. The fix, courtesy of Steven Rostedt, uses
irq_work_queue() to avoid the deadlock.
3. A fix to a silent deadlock (invisible to lockdep) due to the
interaction of timeouts posted by RCU debug code enabled by
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_DELAY=y, grace-period initialization, and CPU
hotplug operations. This will not occur in production kernels,
but really does occur in randconfig testing. Diagnosis courtesy
of Steven Rostedt"

On platforms with C8-C10 support, the additional C-states cause
turbostat to overrun its output buffer of 128 bytes per CPU. Increase
this to 256 bytes per CPU.
[ As a bugfix, this should go into 3.10; however, since the C8-C10
support didn't go in until after 3.9, this need not go into any stable
kernel. ]

* More tweaking to the EFI variable anti-bricking algorithm. Quite a
few users were reporting boot regressions in v3.9. This has now been
fixed with a more accurate "minimum storage requirement to avoid
bricking" value from Samsung (5K instead of 50%) and code to trigger
garbage collection when we near our limit - Matthew Garrett.

There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME
command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact,
support WRITE SAME. This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a
SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can
happen, including drive firmware bugs.
After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the
request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the
failure as fatal and consider the drive failed. This has the effect
that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each
offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss.
However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't
ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should
be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs
to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero.
Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for
raid1, raid5, and raid10.
[neilb: added raid5]
This patch is appropriate for any -stable since 3.7 when write_same
support was added.

Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they
really should call freeze_array.
The former is only intended to be called from "make_request".
The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to
flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the
management thread.
Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock. Using freeze_array
should not.
As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in
handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass
it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore.
The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits
050b66152f87c7 (raid10) and 6b740b8d79252f13 (raid1) which
appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable
kernel since then.
This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and
will need to be applied by hand.
