This reverts commit 9c3b306e1c.
Switching only one commit root during a transaction is wrong because it
leads the fs into an inconsistent state. All commit roots should be
switched at once, at transaction commit time, otherwise backref walking
can often miss important references that were only accessible through
the old commit root. Plus, the root item for the snapshot's root wasn't
getting updated and preventing the next transaction commit to do it.
This made several users get into random corruption issues after creation
of readonly snapshots.
A regression test for xfstests will follow soon.

xenkbd_disconnect_backend doesn't free grant table entry. This bug affects
live migration.
xenkbd_disconnect_backend uses gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref to handle
grant table entry which doesn't really free an entry.
Thus every time we do xenkbd_resume, grant table entry increses by one. As
an grant table entry occupies 8 bytes, an grant table page has at most 512
entries. Every 512 times we do xenkdb_resume, grant table pages increses by
one.
After around 3500 times of live migration, grant table pages will increase
by 7, causing too many pages to populate and hitting max_pages limit when
assigning pages.Thus assign_pages will fail, so will live migration.

This is a bigger patch, but its size is mostly due to
a single change for how we check for remapping illegal characters
in file names - a lot of repeated, small changes to
the way callers request converting file names.
The final patch in the series does the following:
1) changes default behavior for cifs to be more intuitive.
Currently we do not map by default to seven reserved characters,
ie those valid in POSIX but not in NTFS/CIFS/SMB3/Windows,
unless a mount option (mapchars) is specified. Change this
to by default always map and map using the SFM maping
(like the Mac uses) unless the server negotiates the CIFS Unix
Extensions (like Samba does when mounting with the cifs protocol)
when the remapping of the characters is unnecessary. This should
help SMB3 mounts in particular since Samba will likely be
able to implement this mapping with its new "vfs_fruit" module
as it will be doing for the Mac.
2) if the user specifies the existing "mapchars" mount option then
use the "SFU" (Microsoft Services for Unix, SUA) style mapping of
the seven characters instead.
3) if the user specifies "nomapposix" then disable SFM/MAC style mapping
(so no character remapping would be used unless the user specifies
"mapchars" on mount as well, as above).
4) change all the places in the code that check for the superblock
flag on the mount which is set by mapchars and passed in on all
path based operation and change it to use a small function call
instead to set the mapping type properly (and check for the
mapping type in the cifs unicode functions)

The previous patch allowed remapping reserved characters from directory
listenings, this patch adds conversion the other direction, allowing

This allows directory listings to Mac to display filenames
correctly which have been created with illegal (to Windows)
characters in their filename. It does not allow
converting the other direction yet ie opening files with
these characters (followon patch).
There are seven reserved characters that need to be remapped when
mounting to Windows, Mac (or any server without Unix Extensions) which
are valid in POSIX but not in the other OS.
: \ < > ? * |
We used the normal UCS-2 remap range for this in order to convert this
to/from UTF8 as did Windows Services for Unix (basically add 0xF000 to
any of the 7 reserved characters), at least when the "mapchars" mount
option was specified.
Mac used a very slightly different "Services for Mac" remap range
0xF021 through 0xF027. The attached patch allows cifs.ko (the kernel
client) to read directories on macs containing files with these
characters and display their names properly. In theory this even
might be useful on mounts to Samba when the vfs_catia or new
"vfs_fruit" module is loaded.
Currently the 7 reserved characters look very strange in directory
listings from cifs.ko to Mac server. This patch allows these file
name characters to be read (requires specifying mapchars on mount).
Two additional changes are needed:
1) Make it more automatic: a way of detecting enough info so that
we know to try to always remap these characters or not. Various
have suggested that the SFM approach be made the default when
the server does not support POSIX Unix extensions (cifs mounts
to Samba for example) so need to make SFM remapping the default
unless mapchars (SFU style mapping) specified on mount or no
mapping explicitly requested or no mapping needed (cifs mounts to Samba).
2) Adding a patch to map the characters the other direction
(ie UTF-8 to UCS-2 on open). This patch does it for translating
readdir entries (ie UCS-2 to UTF-8)

The "sfu" mount option did not work on SMB2/SMB3 mounts.
With these changes when the "sfu" mount option is passed in
on an smb2/smb2.1/smb3 mount the client can emulate (and
recognize) fifo and device (character and device files).
In addition the "sfu" mount option should not conflict
with "mfsymlinks" (symlink emulation) as we will never
create "sfu" style symlinks, but using "sfu" mount option
will allow us to recognize existing symlinks, created with
Microsoft "Services for Unix" (SFU and SUA).
To enable the "sfu" mount option for SMB2/SMB3 the calling
syntax of the generic cifs/smb2/smb3 sync_read and sync_write
protocol dependent function needed to be changed (we
don't have a file struct in all cases), but this actually

However, we access them as a single 64-bit value or as a bitmap pointer

Instead, store them as u64 values on the vgic structure and do the

Commit 0b0b0893d4 "of/pci: Fix the conversion of IO ranges into IO
resources" changed the behaviour of of_pci_range_to_resource().
Previously it simply populated the resource based on the arguments. Now
it calls pci_register_io_range() and pci_address_to_pio(). These both
have two implementations depending on whether PCI_IOBASE is defined,
which it is not for powerpc.
Further complicating matters, both routines are weak, and powerpc
implements it's own version of one - pci_address_to_pio(). However
powerpc's implementation depends on other initialisations which are done
later in boot.
The end result is incorrectly initialised IO space. Often we can get
away with that, because we don't make much use of IO space. However
virtio requires it, so we see eg:
pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [io 0xffff] (bus address [0xffffffffffffffff-0xffffffffffffffff])
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 0 of device 0000:00:01.0, will remap
virtio-pci 0000:00:01.0: can't enable device: BAR 0 [io size 0x0020] not assigned
The simplest fix for now is to just stop using of_pci_range_to_resource(),
and open-code the original implementation, that's all we want it to do.

For each Rx frame the eTSEC writes its FCS (Frame Check Sequence)
to the Rx buffer.
The eTSEC h/w manual states in the "Receive Buffer Descriptor Field
Descriptions" table:
"Data length is the number of octets written by the eTSEC into this BD's
data buffer if L is cleared (the value is equal to MRBLR), or, if L is
set, the length of the frame including *CRC*, FCB (if RCTRL[PRSDEP > 00),
preamble (if MACCFG2[PreAmRxEn]=1), time stamp (if RCTRL[TS] = 1) and
any padding (RCTRL[PAL])."
Though the FCS bytes are removed by the driver before passing the skb
to the net stack, the Rx buffer size computation does not currently
take into account the FCS bytes (4 bytes).
Because the Rx buffer size is multiple of 512 bytes, leaving out the
FCS is not a problem for the default MTU of 1500, as the Rx buffer size
is 1536 in this case. However, for custom MTUs, where the difference
between the MTU size and the Rx buffer size is less, this can be a
problem as the computed Rx buffer size won't be enough to accomodate
the FCS for a received frame that is big enough (close to MTU size).
In such case the received frame is considered to be incomplete (L flag
not set in the RxBD status) and silently dropped.
Note that the driver does not currently support S/G on Rx, so it has to
compute its Rx buffer size based on the MTU of the device.

iMX6SX IEEE 1588 module has one hw issue in capturing the ATVR register.
The current SW flow is:
ENET0->ATCR |= ENET_ATCR_CAPTURE_MASK;
ts_counter_ns = ENET0->ATVR;
The ATVR value is not expected value that cause LinuxPTP stack cannot be convergent.
ENET Block Guide/ Chapter for the iMX6SX (PELE) address the issue:
After set ENET_ATCR[Capture], there need some time cycles before the counter
value is capture in the register clock domain. The wait-time-cycles is at least
6 clock cycles of the slower clock between the register clock and the 1588 clock.
So need something like:
ENET0->ATCR |= ENET_ATCR_CAPTURE_MASK;
wait();
ts_counter_ns = ENET0->ATVR;
For iMX6SX, the 1588 ts_clk is fixed to 25Mhz, register clock is 66Mhz, so the
wait-time-cycles must be greater than 240ns (40ns * 6). The patch add 1us delay

Process of analyzing events caused by 2 functions: mmap_read() and
finished_round().
During mmap_read(), perf receives events from shared memory, queues
their pointers for further processing in finished_round() and notifies
the kernel that the events have been processed.
By the time when finished_round() is invoked, queued events can be
overwritten by the kernel, so the finished_round() occurs on potentially
corrupted memory.
Since there is no place where the event can be safely consumed, let's
copy events when queueing.

When processing events the session code has an ordered samples queue
which is used to time-sort events coming in across multiple mmaps. At a
later point in time samples on the queue are flushed up to some
timestamp at which point the event is actually processed.
When analyzing events live (ie., record/analysis path in the same
command) there is a race that leads to corrupted events and parse errors
which cause perf to terminate. The problem is that when the event is
placed in the ordered samples queue it is only a reference to the event
which is really sitting in the mmap buffer. Even though the event is
queued for later processing the mmap tail pointer is updated which
indicates to the kernel that the event has been processed. The race is
flushing the event from the queue before it gets overwritten by some
other event. For commands trying to process events live (versus just
writing to a file) and processing a high rate of events this leads to
parse failures and perf terminates.
Examples hitting this problem are 'perf kvm stat live', especially with
nested VMs which generate 100,000+ traces per second, and a command
processing scheduling events with a high rate of context switching --
e.g., running 'perf bench sched pipe'.
This patch offers live commands an option to copy the event when it is
placed in the ordered samples queue.
