Pull 'full dynticks' support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree from Frederic Weisbecker adds a new, (exciting! :-) core
kernel feature to the timer and scheduler subsystems: 'full dynticks',
or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.
This feature extends the nohz variable-size timer tick feature from
idle to busy CPUs (running at most one task) as well, potentially
reducing the number of timer interrupts significantly.
This feature got motivated by real-time folks and the -rt tree, but
the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than
that:
- HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able
to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power. A periodic timer tick at
HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%. This feature
removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on
typical distro configs even on modern systems.
- Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks
should experience as little jitter as possible. The last remaining
source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick.
- A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation,
especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature
helps desktop and mobile workloads as well.
The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer
reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus
slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency.
Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing
two NOHZ kconfig modes:
- CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named
as a config option. This is the traditional Linux periodic tick
design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of
whether a CPU is idle or not.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the
periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the
tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one
timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a
CPU.
The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the
user having to configure anything. CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by
default.
This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been
steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support
and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already.
This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature. The pull
request is marked RFC because:
- it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is
small but did not get ready in time.
- it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge
window. The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the
merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I
marked it RFC.
- it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and
while the components have been in testing for some time, the full
combination is still not very widely used. That it's default-off
should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no
known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either.
- the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100%
equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick. In
particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects
on scheduler load-balancing and statistics. This should not impact
correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this
feature at this point.
- it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be
enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on
its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed.
Without flaming us to crisp! :-)
Future plans:
- there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off
the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a
CPU. We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go
for the 0 Hz target though.
- once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from
nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only
as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do -
once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running.
I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in
v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long -
but the final word is up to you as usual.

Pull single_open() leak fixes from Al Viro:
"A bunch of fixes for a moderately common class of bugs: file with
single_open() done by its ->open() and seq_release as its ->release().
That leaks; fortunately, it's not _too_ common (either people manage
to RTFM that says "When using single_open(), the programmer should use
single_release() instead of seq_release() in the file_operations
structure to avoid a memory leak", or they just copy a correct
instance), but grepping through the tree has caught quite a pile.
All of that is, AFAICS, -stable fodder, for as far as the patches
apply. I tried to carve it up into reasonably-sized pieces (more or

Merge ipc fixes and cleanups from my IPC branch.
The ipc locking has always been pretty ugly, and the scalability fixes
to some degree made it even less readable. We had two cases of double
unlocks in error paths due to this (one rcu read unlock, one semaphore
unlock), and this fixes the bugs I found while trying to clean things up
a bit so that we are less likely to have more.
* ipc-cleanups:
ipc: simplify rcu_read_lock() in semctl_nolock()
ipc: simplify semtimedop/semctl_main() common error path handling
ipc: move sem_obtain_lock() rcu locking into the only caller
ipc: fix double sem unlock in semctl error path
ipc: move the rcu_read_lock() from sem_lock_and_putref() into callers
ipc: sem_putref() does not need the semaphore lock any more
ipc: move rcu_read_unlock() out of sem_unlock() and into callers

This is needed because when scan_of_devices finds the GAISLER_GPTIMER
core that corresponds to the SMP "ticker" timer, the previously set
proper irq flow handler gets overwritten with an incorrect one. This
leads to very flaky timer interrupt handling on some hardware. Proper
updates to handlers can still be done using leon_update_virq_handling.

With various straight RCU lock/unlock movements, one common exit path
pattern had become
rcu_read_unlock();
goto out_wakeup;
and in fact there were no cases where we wanted to exit to out_wakeup
_without_ releasing the RCU read lock.
So replace that pattern with "goto out_rcu_wakeup", and remove the old
out_wakeup.

sem_obtain_lock() was another of those functions that returned with the
RCU lock held for reading in the success case. Move the RCU locking to
the caller (semtimedop()), making it more obvious. We already did RCU
locking elsewhere in that function.
Side note: why does semtimedop() re-do the semphore lookup after the
sleep, rather than just getting a reference to the semaphore it already
looked up originally?

This is another ipc semaphore locking cleanup, trying to make the
locking more straightforward. We move the rcu read locking into the
callers of sem_lock_and_putref(), which in general means that we now
mostly do the rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() in the same
function.
Mostly. We still have the ipc_addid/newary/freeary mess, and things
like ipcctl_pre_down_nolock().

Pull ARM platform specific firmware interfaces from Olof Johansson:
"Two platforms, bcm and exynos have their own firmware interfaces using
the "secure monitor call", this adds support for those.
We had originally planned to have a third set of patches in here,
which would extend support for the existing generic "psci" call that
is used on multiple platforms as well as Xen and KVM guests, but that
ended up getting dropped because the patches were not ready in time."

Pull ARM SoC pinctrl changes for Renesas from Olof Johansson:
"This is yet another driver change, which is split out just because of
its size. As already in 3.9, a lot of changes are going on here, as
the shmobile platform gets converted from its own pin control API to
the generic drivers/pinctrl subsystem.
Based on agreements with Paul Mundt, we are merging the sh-arch-side
changes here as well"

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
"This is a rather large set of patches for device drivers that for one
reason or another the subsystem maintainer preferred to get merged
through the arm-soc tree. There are both new drivers as well as
existing drivers that are getting converted from platform-specific
code into standalone drivers using the appropriate subsystem specific
interfaces.
In particular, we can now have pinctrl, clk, clksource and irqchip
drivers in one file per driver, without the need to call into platform
specific interface, or to get called from platform specific code, as
long as all information about the hardware is provided through a
device tree.
Most of the drivers we touch this time are for clocksource. Since now
most of them are part of drivers/clocksource, I expect that we won't
have to touch these again from arm-soc and can let the clocksource
maintainers take care of these in the future.
Another larger part of this series is specific to the exynos platform,
which is seeing some significant effort in upstreaming and
modernization of its device drivers this time around, which
unfortunately is also the cause for the churn and a lot of the merge
conflicts.
There is one new subsystem that gets merged as part of this series:
the reset controller interface, which is a very simple interface for
taking devices on the SoC out of reset or back into reset. Patches to
use this interface on i.MX follow later in this merge window, and we
are going to have other platforms (at least tegra and sirf) get
converted in 3.11. This will let us get rid of platform specific
callbacks in a number of platform independent device drivers."

Since it uses only THIS_MODULE macro, include <linux/export.h>
is the right to go here.

while list_add(A, B) and list_add(B, A) are equivalent when both A and B
are guaranteed to be empty, the usual idiom is list_add(what, where),
not the other way round... Not a bug per se, but only by accident and
it makes RTFS harder for no good reason.

When pruning a dentry, its ancestor dentry can also be pruned. But
the ancestor dentry does not go through dput(), so it does not get
put on the dentry LRU. Hence associating d_prune with removing the
dentry from the LRU is the wrong.
The fix is remove dentry_lru_prune(). Call file system's d_prune()
callback directly when pruning dentries.

When BSD process accounting is enabled and logs information to a
filesystem which gets frozen, system easily becomes unusable because
each attempt to account process information blocks. Thus e.g. every task
gets blocked in exit.
It seems better to drop accounting information (which can already happen
when filesystem is running out of space) instead of locking system up.
So we just skip the write if the filesystem is frozen.
