Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "A more active cycle than most of the recent past, with a few large,
  long discussed works this time.

  The RNBD block driver has been posted for nearly two years now, and
  flowing through RDMA due to it also introducing a new ULP.

  The removal of FMR has been a recurring discussion theme for a long
  time.

  And the usual smattering of features and bug fixes.

  Summary:

   - Various small driver bugs fixes in rxe, mlx5, hfi1, and efa

   - Continuing driver cleanups in bnxt_re, hns

   - Big cleanup of mlx5 QP creation flows

   - More consistent use of src port and flow label when LAG is used and
     a mlx5 implementation

   - Additional set of cleanups for IB CM

   - 'RNBD' network block driver and target. This is a network block
     RDMA device specific to ionos's cloud environment. It brings strong
     multipath and resiliency capabilities.

   - Accelerated IPoIB for HFI1

   - QP/WQ/SRQ ioctl migration for uverbs, and support for multiple
     async fds

   - Support for exchanging the new IBTA defiend ECE data during RDMA CM
     exchanges

   - Removal of the very old and insecure FMR interface from all ULPs
     and drivers. FRWR should be preferred for at least a decade now"

sysfs: export sysfs_remove_file_self()

Function is going to be used in transport over RDMA module in subsequent
patches, so export it to GPL modules.

sysfs: remove redundant __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj fn

2020-04-05T18:34:35+00:00

Commit 9255782f7061 ("sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj
function to change the symlink name") made this function a wrapper
around a new non-underscored function, which is a bit odd.  The normal
naming convention is the other way around: the underscored function is
the wrappee, and the non-underscored function is the wrapper.

There's only one single user (well, two call-sites in that user) of the
more limited double underscore version of this function, so just remove
the oddly named wrapper entirely and just add the extra NULL argument to
the user.

I considered just doing that in the merge, but that tends to make
history really hard to read.

Merge tag 'powerpc-5.7-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux

2020-04-05T18:12:59+00:00

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Slightly late as I had to rebase mid-week to insert a bug fix:

   - A large series from Nick for 64-bit to further rework our exception
     vectors, and rewrite portions of the syscall entry/exit and
     interrupt return in C. The result is much easier to follow code
     that is also faster in general.

   - Cleanup of our ptrace code to split various parts out that had
     become badly intertwined with #ifdefs over the years.

   - Changes to our NUMA setup under the PowerVM hypervisor which should
     hopefully avoid non-sensical topologies which can lead to warnings
     from the workqueue code and other problems.

   - MAINTAINERS updates to remove some of our old orphan entries and
     update the status of others.

   - Quite a few other small changes and fixes all over the map.

sysfs: add sysfs_change_owner()

2020-02-27T04:07:25+00:00

Add a helper to change the owner of sysfs objects.
This function will be used to correctly account for kobject ownership
changes, e.g. when moving network devices between network namespaces.

This mirrors how a kobject is added through driver core which in its guts is
done via kobject_add_internal() which in summary creates the main directory via
create_dir(), populates that directory with the groups associated with the
ktype of the kobject (if any) and populates the directory with the basic
attributes associated with the ktype of the kobject (if any). These are the
basic steps that are associated with adding a kobject in sysfs.
Any additional properties are added by the specific subsystem itself (not by
driver core) after it has registered the device. So for the example of network
devices, a network device will e.g. register a queue subdirectory under the
basic sysfs directory for the network device and than further subdirectories
within that queues subdirectory.  But that is all specific to network devices
and they call the corresponding sysfs functions to do that directly when they
create those queue objects. So anything that a subsystem adds outside of what
driver core does must also be changed by it (That's already true for removal of
files it created outside of driver core.) and it's the same for ownership
changes.

sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function to change the symlink name

2020-02-19T10:07:09+00:00

The __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function creates a symlink
to a kobject but doesn't provide an option to change the symlink file
name.

This patch adds a wrapper function compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj
that extends the __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj functionality
which allows function caller to customize the symlink name.
