- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150930 (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).
The most significant change is to allow the AML debugger to be
built into the kernel. On top of that there is an update related
to the NFIT table (the ACPI persistent memory interface)
and a few fixes and cleanups.
- ACPI CPPC2 (Collaborative Processor Performance Control v2)
support along with a cpufreq frontend (Ashwin Chaugule).
This can only be enabled on ARM64 at this point.
- New ACPI infrastructure for the early probing of IRQ chips and
clock sources (Marc Zyngier).
- Support for a new hierarchical properties extension of the ACPI
_DSD (Device Specific Data) device configuration object allowing
the kernel to handle hierarchical properties (provided by the
platform firmware this way) automatically and make them available
to device drivers via the generic device properties interface
(Rafael Wysocki).
- Generic device properties API extension to obtain an index of
certain string value in an array of strings, along the lines of
of_property_match_string(), but working for all of the supported
firmware node types, and support for the "dma-names" device
property based on it (Mika Westerberg).
- ACPI core fix to parse the MADT (Multiple APIC Description Table)
entries in the order expected by platform firmware (and mandated
by the specification) to avoid confusion on systems with more than
255 logical CPUs (Lukasz Anaczkowski).
- Consolidation of the ACPI-based handling of PCI host bridges
on x86 and ia64 (Jiang Liu).
- ACPI core fixes to ensure that the correct IRQ number is used to
represent the SCI (System Control Interrupt) in the cases when
it has been re-mapped (Chen Yu).
- New ACPI backlight quirk for Lenovo IdeaPad S405 (Hans de Goede).
- ACPI EC driver fixes (Lv Zheng).
- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Dan Carpenter, Insu Yun, Jiri
Kosina, Rami Rosen, Rasmus Villemoes).
- New mechanism in the PM core allowing drivers to check if the
platform firmware is going to be involved in the upcoming system
suspend or if it has been involved in the suspend the system is
resuming from at the moment (Rafael Wysocki).
This should allow drivers to optimize their suspend/resume
handling in some cases and the changes include a couple of users
of it (the i8042 input driver, PCI PM).
- PCI PM fix to prevent runtime-suspended devices with PME enabled
from being resumed during system suspend even if they aren't
configured to wake up the system from sleep (Rafael Wysocki).
- New mechanism to report the number of a wakeup IRQ that woke up
the system from sleep last time (Alexandra Yates).
- Removal of unused interfaces from the generic power domains
framework and fixes related to latency measurements in that
code (Ulf Hansson, Daniel Lezcano).
- cpufreq core sysfs interface rework to make it handle CPUs that
share performance scaling settings (represented by a common
cpufreq policy object) more symmetrically (Viresh Kumar).
This should help to simplify the CPU offline/online handling among
other things.
- cpufreq core fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate fixes related to the Turbo Activation Ratio (TAR)
mechanism on client platforms which causes the turbo P-states
range to vary depending on platform firmware settings (Srinivas

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-4.4-rc1-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Quite a new features are included this time.
First off, the Collaborative Processor Performance Control interface
(version 2) defined by ACPI will now be supported on ARM64 along with
a cpufreq frontend for CPU performance scaling.
Second, ACPI gets a new infrastructure for the early probing of IRQ
chips and clock sources (along the lines of the existing similar
mechanism for DT).
Next, the ACPI core and the generic device properties API will now
support a recently introduced hierarchical properties extension of the
_DSD (Device Specific Data) ACPI device configuration object. If the
ACPI platform firmware uses that extension to organize device
properties in a hierarchical way, the kernel will automatically handle
it and make those properties available to device drivers via the
generic device properties API.
It also will be possible to build the ACPICA's AML interpreter
debugger into the kernel now and use that to diagnose AML-related
problems more efficiently. In the future, this should make it
possible to single-step AML execution and do similar things.
Interesting stuff, although somewhat experimental at this point.
Finally, the PM core gets a new mechanism that can be used by device
drivers to distinguish between suspend-to-RAM (based on platform
firmware support) and suspend-to-idle (or other variants of system
suspend the platform firmware is not involved in) and possibly
optimize their device suspend/resume handling accordingly.
In addition to that, some existing features are re-organized quite
substantially.
First, the ACPI-based handling of PCI host bridges on x86 and ia64 is
unified and the common code goes into the ACPI core (so as to reduce
code duplication and eliminate non-essential differences between the
two architectures in that area).
Second, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is
reorganized to make the code easier to find and follow.
Next, the cpufreq core's sysfs interface is reorganized to get rid of
the "primary CPU" concept for configurations in which the same
performance scaling settings are shared between multiple CPUs.
Finally, some interfaces that aren't necessary any more are dropped
from the generic power domains framework.
On top of the above we have some minor extensions, cleanups and bug
fixes in multiple places, as usual.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150930 (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).
The most significant change is to allow the AML debugger to be

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There is only one new feature in this pull for the 4.4 merge window,
most of it is small enhancements, cleanup and bug fixes:
- Add the s390 backend for the software dirty bit tracking. This
adds two new pgtable functions pte_clear_soft_dirty and
pmd_clear_soft_dirty which is why there is a hit to
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h in this pull request.
- A series of cleanup patches for the AP bus, this includes the
removal of the support for two outdated crypto cards (PCICC and
PCICA).
- The irq handling / signaling on buffer full in the runtime
instrumentation code is dropped.
- Some micro optimizations: remove unnecessary memory barriers for a
couple of functions: [smb_]rmb, [smb_]wmb, atomics, bitops, and for
spin_unlock. Use the builtin bswap if available and make
test_and_set_bit_lock more cache friendly.
- Statistics and a tracepoint for the diagnose calls to the
hypervisor.
- The CPU measurement facility support to sample KVM guests is
improved.
- The vector instructions are now always enabled for user space
processes if the hardware has the vector facility. This simplifies
the FPU handling code. The fpu-internal.h header is split into fpu
internals, api and types just like x86.
- Cleanup and improvements for the common I/O layer.
- Rework udelay to solve a problem with kprobe. udelay has busy loop
semantics but still uses an idle processor state for the wait"

Currently, a grant is always based on the Xen page granularity (i.e
4KB). When Linux is using a different page granularity, a single page
will be split between multiple grants.
The new helpers will be in charge of splitting the Linux page into grants
and call a function given by the caller on each grant.
Also provide an helper to count the number of grants within a given
contiguous region.
Note that the x86/include/asm/xen/page.h is now including
xen/interface/grant_table.h rather than xen/grant_table.h. It's
necessary because xen/grant_table.h depends on asm/xen/page.h and will
break the compilation. Furthermore, only definition in
interface/grant_table.h is required.

Regardless, there's no real reason to have something be a module which

like there's noticeable change in functionality - we still can load late

After Ivybridge, the max non turbo ratio obtained from platform info msr
is not always guaranteed P1 on client platforms. The max non turbo
activation ratio (TAR), determines the max for the current level of TDP.
The ratio in platform info is physical max. The TAR MSR can be locked,
so updating this value is not possible on all platforms.
This change gets this ratio from MSR TURBO_ACTIVATION_RATIO if
available,
but also do some sanity checking to make sure that this value is
correct.
The sanity check involves reading the TDP ratio for the current tdp
control value when platform has configurable TDP present and matching
TAC
with this.

Merge tag 'efi-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi into core/efi
Pull v4.4 EFI updates from Matt Fleming:
- Make the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) driver explicitly
non-modular by ripping out the module_* code since Kconfig doesn't
allow it to be built as a module anyway. (Paul Gortmaker)
- Make the x86 efi=debug kernel parameter, which enables EFI debug
code and output, generic and usable by arm64. (Leif Lindholm)
- Add support to the x86 EFI boot stub for 64-bit Graphics Output
Protocol frame buffer addresses. (Matt Fleming)
- Detect when the UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE feature is enabled
in the firmware and set an efi.flags bit so the kernel knows when
it can apply more strict runtime mapping attributes - Ard Biesheuvel
- Auto-load the efi-pstore module on EFI systems, just like we
currently do for the efivars module. (Ben Hutchings)
- Add "efi_fake_mem" kernel parameter which allows the system's EFI
memory map to be updated with additional attributes for specific
memory ranges. This is useful for testing the kernel code that handles
the EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE memmap bit even if your firmware
doesn't include support. (Taku Izumi)
Note: there is a semantic conflict between the following two commits:
8a53554e12 ("x86/efi: Fix multiple GOP device support")
ae2ee627dc ("efifb: Add support for 64-bit frame buffer addresses")
I fixed up the interaction in the merge commit, changing the type of
current_fb_base from u32 to u64.

There are primitives to create and query the software dirty bits
in a pte or pmd. But the clearing of the software dirty bits is done
in common code with x86 specific page table functions.
Add the missing architecture primitives to clear the software dirty
bits to allow the feature to be used on non-x86 systems, e.g. the
s390 architecture.

The next patch will make x86_set_memory_region fill the
userspace_addr. Since the struct is not used untouched
anymore, it makes sense to build it in x86_set_memory_region
directly; it also simplifies the callers.

A certain number of patch levels of applied microcode should not
be overwritten by the microcode loader, otherwise bad things
will happen.
Check those and abort update if the current core has one of
those final patch levels applied by the BIOS. 32-bit needs
special handling, of course.
See https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=913996 for more
info.

Pave the way for checking the current patch level of the
microcode in a core. We want to be able to do stuff depending on
the patch level - in this case decide whether to update or not.
But that will be added in a later patch.
Drop unused local var uci assignment, while at it.
Integrate a fix for 32-bit and CONFIG_PARAVIRT from Takashi Iwai:
Use native_rdmsr() in check_current_patch_level() because with
CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled and on 32-bit, where we run before
paging has been enabled, we cannot deref pv_info yet. Or we
could, but we'd need to access its physical address. This way of
fixing it is simpler. See:
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=943179 for the background.

Previously, UV NMI used the 'in_crash_kexec' flag to determine whether
we are in a kdump kernel or not:
5edd19af18 ("x86, UV: Make kdump avoid stack dumps")
But this flags was removed in the following commit:
9c48f1c629 ("x86, nmi: Wire up NMI handlers to new routines")
Since it isn't used any more, remove it.

It's no longer needed.
We could reinstate something like it as an optimization, which
would remove two cachelines from the fast syscall entry working
set. I benchmarked it, and it makes no difference whatsoever to
the performance of cache-hot compat syscalls on Sandy Bridge.

Syscalls are asmlinkage functions (on 32-bit kernels), take six
args of type unsigned long, and return long. Note that uml
could probably be slightly cleaned up on top of this patch.

The goal is to integrate the SYSENTER and SYSCALL32 entry paths
with the INT80 path. SYSENTER clobbers ESP and EIP. SYSCALL32
clobbers ECX (and, invisibly, R11). SYSRETL (long mode to
compat mode) clobbers ECX and, invisibly, R11. SYSEXIT (which
we only need for native 32-bit) clobbers ECX and EDX.
This means that we'll need to provide ESP to the kernel in a
register (I chose ECX, since it's only needed for SYSENTER) and
we need to provide the args that normally live in ECX and EDX in
memory.
The epilogue needs to restore ECX and EDX, since user code
relies on regs being preserved.
We don't need to do anything special about EIP, since the kernel
already knows where we are. The kernel will eventually need to
know where int $0x80 lands, so add a vdso_image entry for it.
The only user-visible effect of this code is that ptrace-induced
changes to ECX and EDX during fast syscalls will be lost. This
is already the case for the SYSENTER path.
