The LOCK and UNLOCK barriers as described in our barrier document are
generally known as ACQUIRE and RELEASE barriers in other literature.
Since we plan to introduce the acquire and release nomenclature in
generic kernel primitives we should amend the document to avoid
confusion as to what an acquire/release means.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata
Pull libata fixes from Tejun Heo:
"There's one interseting commit - "libata, freezer: avoid block device
removal while system is frozen". It's an ugly hack working around a
deadlock condition between driver core resume and block layer device
removal paths through freezer which was made more reproducible by
writeback being converted to workqueue some releases ago. The bug has
nothing to do with libata but it's just an workaround which is easy to
backport. After discussion, Rafael and I seem to agree that we don't
really need kernel freezables - both kthread and workqueue. There are
few specific workqueues which constitute PM operations and require
freezing, which will be converted to use workqueue_set_max_active()
instead. All other kernel freezer uses are planned to be removed,
followed by the removal of kthread and workqueue freezer support,
hopefully.
Others are device-specific fixes. The most notable is the addition of
NO_NCQ_TRIM which is used to disable queued TRIM commands to Micro
M500 SSDs which otherwise suffers data corruption"

Pull crypto key patches from David Howells:
"There are four items:
- A patch to fix X.509 certificate gathering. The problem was that I
was coming up with a different path for signing_key.x509 in the
build directory if it didn't exist to if it did exist. This meant
that the X.509 cert container object file would be rebuilt on the
second rebuild in a build directory and the kernel would get
relinked.
- Unconditionally remove files generated by SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYRING=y
when doing make mrproper.
- Actually initialise the persistent-keyring semaphore for
init_user_ns. I have no idea why this works at all for users in
the base user namespace unless it's something to do with systemd
containerising the system.

A user on StackExchange had a failing SSD that's soldered directly
onto the motherboard of his system. The BIOS does not give any option
to disable it at all, so he can't just hide it from the OS via the
BIOS.
The old IDE layer had hdX=noprobe override for situations like this,
but that was never ported to the libata layer.
This patch implements a disable flag for libata.force.
Example use:
libata.force=2.0:disable

Historically, an UNLOCK+LOCK pair executed by one CPU, by one
task, or on a given lock variable has implied a full memory
barrier. In a recent LKML thread, the wisdom of this historical
approach was called into question:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg65653.html, in part due
to the memory-order complexities of low-handoff-overhead queued
locks on x86 systems.
This patch therefore removes this guarantee from the
documentation, and further documents how to restore it via a new
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() primitive.

memory-barriers.txt
The Documentation/memory-barriers.txt file was written before
the need for ACCESS_ONCE() was fully appreciated. It therefore
contains no ACCESS_ONCE() calls, which can be a problem when
people lift examples from it. This commit therefore adds
ACCESS_ONCE() calls.

figure out why it breaks things.
2) Fix comparison in netfilter ipset's hash_netnet4_data_equal(), it
was basically doing "x == x", from Dave Jones.
3) Freescale FEC driver was DMA mapping the wrong number of bytes, from
Sebastian Siewior.
4) Blackhole and prohibit routes in ipv6 were not doing the right thing
because their ->input and ->output methods were not being assigned
correctly. Now they behave properly like their ipv4 counterparts.
From Kamala R.
5) Several drivers advertise the NETIF_F_FRAGLIST capability, but
really do not support this feature and will send garbage packets if
fed fraglist SKBs. From Eric Dumazet.
6) Fix long standing user triggerable BUG_ON over loopback in RDS
protocol stack, from Venkat Venkatsubra.
7) Several not so common code paths can potentially try to invoke
packet scheduler actions that might be NULL without checking. Shore
things up by either 1) defining a method as mandatory and erroring
on registration if that method is NULL 2) defininig a method as
optional and the registration function hooks up a default
implementation when NULL is seen. From Jamal Hadi Salim.
8) Fix fragment detection in xen-natback driver, from Paul Durrant.
9) Kill dangling enter_memory_pressure method in cg_proto ops, from

"A set of device-mapper fixes for 3.13.
A fix for possible memory corruption during DM table load, fix a

initialize read-only module parameters that are used to export metrics
for dm stats and dm bufio.
Quite a few stable fixes were identified for both the thin-
provisioning and caching targets as a result of increased regression
testing using the device-mapper-test-suite (dmts). The most notable
of these are the reference counting fixes for the space map btree that
is used by the dm-array interface -- without these the dm-cache

Pull misc keyrings fixes from David Howells:
"These break down into five sets:
- A patch to error handling in the big_key type for huge payloads.
If the payload is larger than the "low limit" and the backing store
allocation fails, then big_key_instantiate() doesn't clear the
payload pointers in the key, assuming them to have been previously
cleared - but only one of them is.
Unfortunately, the garbage collector still calls big_key_destroy()
when sees one of the pointers with a weird value in it (and not
NULL) which it then tries to clean up.
- Three patches to fix the keyring type:
* A patch to fix the hash function to correctly divide keyrings off
from keys in the topology of the tree inside the associative
array. This is only a problem if searching through nested
keyrings - and only if the hash function incorrectly puts the a
keyring outside of the 0 branch of the root node.
* A patch to fix keyrings' use of the associative array. The
__key_link_begin() function initially passes a NULL key pointer
to assoc_array_insert() on the basis that it's holding a place in
the tree whilst it does more allocation and stuff.
This is only a problem when a node contains 16 keys that match at
that level and we want to add an also matching 17th. This should
easily be manufactured with a keyring full of keyrings (without
chucking any other sort of key into the mix) - except for (a)
above which makes it on average adding the 65th keyring.
* A patch to fix searching down through nested keyrings, where any
keyring in the set has more than 16 keyrings and none of the
first keyrings we look through has a match (before the tree
iteration needs to step to a more distal node).
Test in keyutils test suite:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/commit/?id=8b4ae963ed92523aea18dfbb8cab3f4979e13bd1
- A patch to fix the big_key type's use of a shmem file as its
backing store causing audit messages and LSM check failures. This
is done by setting S_PRIVATE on the file to avoid LSM checks on the
file (access to the shmem file goes through the keyctl() interface
and so is gated by the LSM that way).
This isn't normally a problem if a key is used by the context that
generated it - and it's currently only used by libkrb5.
Test in keyutils test suite:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/commit/?id=d9a53cbab42c293962f2f78f7190253fc73bd32e
- A patch to add a generated file to .gitignore.
- A patch to fix the alignment of the system certificate data such
that it it works on s390. As I understand it, on the S390 arch,
symbols must be 2-byte aligned because loading the address discards
the least-significant bit"

Commit 89ce376c6bdc (drivers/net: Use of_match_ptr() macro in smc91x.c)
added minimal device tree support to smc91x, but it's not working on
many platforms because of the lack of some key configuration bits.
Fix the issue by parsing the necessary configuration like the
smc911x driver is doing. As most smc91x users seem to use 16-bit
access, let's default to that if no reg-io-width is specified.

The cache target's invalidate_cblocks message allows cache block

Commit e40526cb20b5 introduced a cached dev pointer, that gets
hooked into register_prot_hook(), __unregister_prot_hook() to
update the device used for the send path.
We need to fix this up, as otherwise this will not work with
sockets created with protocol = 0, plus with sll_protocol = 0
passed via sockaddr_ll when doing the bind.
So instead, assign the pointer directly. The compiler can inline
these helper functions automagically.
While at it, also assume the cached dev fast-path as likely(),
and document this variant of socket creation as it seems it is
not widely used (seems not even the author of TX_RING was aware
of that in his reference example [1]). Tested with reproducer
from e40526cb20b5.

When booted with device tree, we may still have platform data passed
as auxdata. For am3517 this is needed for passing the interrupt_enable
and interrupt_disable callbacks that access the omap system control module
registers. These callback functions will eventually go away when we have
a separate system control module driver.
Some of the things that are currently passed as platform data we don't need
to set up as device tree properties as they are always the same on am3517.
So let's use a new compatible flag for those so we can get those from
the device tree match data.
Also note that we need to fix setting of phy_dev to NULL instead of an empty
string as the code later on uses that to find the first phy on the mdio bus.
This seems to have been caused by 5d69e0076a72 (net: davinci_emac: switch to
new mdio).

"Another batch of fixes for ARM SoCs for 3.13. The diffstat is large,
mostly because of:
- Another set of fixes to fix regressions caused by moving OMAP from
board files to DT. Tony thinks this was the last major set of
fixes, with maybe just a few small patches to follow.
- More fixes for Marvell platforms, most dealing with misdescribed
PCIe hardware, i.e. incorrect number of busses on some SoCs, etc.
The line delta adds up due to various ranges moving around when
this is fixed.
But there's also:
- Some smaller tweaks to defconfigs to make more boards bootable in
my test setup for better coverage.

a couple of reverts for ux500, etc"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap into fixes
From Tony Lindgren:
Some omap related fixes that have come up with people moving to device
tree only based booting for omap2+.
The series contains a handful of fixes for the igep boards as they were
one of the first omap3 boards to jump over completely to device tree
based booting. So these can be considered regressions compared to
booting igep in legacy mode with board files in v3.12.
Also included are few other device tree vs legacy booting regressions:
- yet more missing omap3 .dtsi entries that have showed up booting
various boards with device tree only
- n900 eMMC device tree fix
- fixes for beagle USB EHCI
- two fixes to make omap2420 MMC work
As we're moving omap2+ to be device tree only for v3.14, I'd like to
have v3.13 work equally well for legacy based booting and device tree
based booting. So there will be likely few more device tree related
booting patches trickling in.
This series also includes a regression fix for the omap timer posted
mode that may wrongly stay on from the bootloader for some SoCs.

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks. The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.
One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held. Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:
1. Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.
2. Defer the wakeup in such cases.
3. Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
sooner rather than later.
We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held. This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled. We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.
The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.
This flag is checked by the RCU core processing. The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set. Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!). So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.
This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".
