Maniaxx reported a kernel boot crash in the EFI code, which I emulated
by using same invalid phys addr in code:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffff280001

There is also a similar bug filed in bugzilla.kernel.org:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195633
The crash is caused by this commit:
7b0a911478c7 efi/x86: Move the EFI BGRT init code to early init code
The root cause is the firmware on those machines provides invalid BGRT
image addresses.
In a kernel before above commit BGRT initializes late and uses ioremap()
to map the image address. Ioremap validates the address, if it is not a
valid physical address ioremap() just fails and returns. However in current
kernel EFI BGRT initializes early and uses early_memremap() which does not
validate the image address, and kernel panic happens.
According to ACPI spec the BGRT image address should fall into
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA, see the section 5.2.22.4 of below document:
http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_1.pdf
Fix this issue by validating the image address in efi_bgrt_init(). If the
image address does not fall into any EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA areas we just
bail out with a warning message.

imx-drm: PRE clock gating, panelless LDB, and VDIC CSI selection fixes
- Keep the external clock input to the PRE ungated and only use the internal
soft reset to keep the module in low power state, to avoid sporadic startup
failures.
- Ignore -ENODEV return values from drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge in the LDB
driver to fix probing for devices that still do not specify a panel in the
device tree.
- Fix the CSI input selection to the VDIC. According to experiments, the real

The commit e7ee40475760 ("perf symbols: Fix symbols searching for module
in buildid-cache") added the function to check kernel modules reside in
the build-id cache. This was because there's no way to identify a DSO
which is actually a kernel module. So it searched linkname of the file
and find ".ko" suffix.
But this does not work for compressed kernel modules and now such DSOs
hCcave correct symtab_type now. So no need to check it anymore. This
patch essentially reverts the commit.

The symsrc__init() overwrites dso->symtab_type as symsrc->type in
dso__load_sym(). But for compressed kernel modules in the build-id
cache, it should have original symtab type to be decompressed as needed.
This fixes perf annotate to show disassembly of the function properly.

In blk-cgroup, operations on blkg objects are protected with the
request_queue lock. This is no more the lock that protects
I/O-scheduler operations in blk-mq. In fact, the latter are now
protected with a finer-grained per-scheduler-instance lock. As a
consequence, although blkg lookups are also rcu-protected, blk-mq I/O
schedulers may see inconsistent data when they access blkg and
blkg-related objects. BFQ does access these objects, and does incur
this problem, in the following case.
The blkg_lookup performed in bfq_get_queue, being protected (only)
through rcu, may happen to return the address of a copy of the
original blkg. If this is the case, then the blkg_get performed in
bfq_get_queue, to pin down the blkg, is useless: it does not prevent
blk-cgroup code from destroying both the original blkg and all objects
directly or indirectly referred by the copy of the blkg. BFQ accesses
these objects, which typically causes a crash for NULL-pointer
dereference of memory-protection violation.
Some additional protection mechanism should be added to blk-cgroup to
address this issue. In the meantime, this commit provides a quick
temporary fix for BFQ: cache (when safe) blkg data that might
disappear right after a blkg_lookup.
In particular, this commit exploits the following facts to achieve its
goal without introducing further locks. Destroy operations on a blkg
invoke, as a first step, hooks of the scheduler associated with the
blkg. And these hooks are executed with bfqd->lock held for BFQ. As a
consequence, for any blkg associated with the request queue an
instance of BFQ is attached to, we are guaranteed that such a blkg is
not destroyed, and that all the pointers it contains are consistent,
while that instance is holding its bfqd->lock. A blkg_lookup performed
with bfqd->lock held then returns a fully consistent blkg, which
remains consistent until this lock is held. In more detail, this holds
even if the returned blkg is a copy of the original one.
Finally, also the object describing a group inside BFQ needs to be
protected from destruction on the blkg_free of the original blkg
(which invokes bfq_pd_free). This commit adds private refcounting for
this object, to let it disappear only after no bfq_queue refers to it
any longer.
This commit also removes or updates some stale comments on locking
issues related to blk-cgroup operations.

Linu Cherian reported a WARN in cleanup_srcu_struct() when shutting
down a guest running iperf on a VFIO assigned device. This happens
because irqfd_wakeup() calls srcu_read_lock(&kvm->irq_srcu) in interrupt
context, while a worker thread does the same inside kvm_set_irq(). If the
interrupt happens while the worker thread is executing __srcu_read_lock(),
updates to the Classic SRCU ->lock_count[] field or the Tree SRCU
->srcu_lock_count[] field can be lost.
The docs say you are not supposed to call srcu_read_lock() and
srcu_read_unlock() from irq context, but KVM interrupt injection happens
from (host) interrupt context and it would be nice if SRCU supported the
use case. KVM is using SRCU here not really for the "sleepable" part,
but rather due to its IPI-free fast detection of grace periods. It is
therefore not desirable to switch back to RCU, which would effectively
revert commit 719d93cd5f5c ("kvm/irqchip: Speed up KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING",
2014-01-16).
However, the docs are overly conservative. You can have an SRCU instance
only has users in irq context, and you can mix process and irq context
as long as process context users disable interrupts. In addition,
__srcu_read_unlock() actually uses this_cpu_dec() on both Tree SRCU and
Classic SRCU. For those two implementations, only srcu_read_lock()
is unsafe.
When Classic SRCU's __srcu_read_unlock() was changed to use this_cpu_dec(),
in commit 5a41344a3d83 ("srcu: Simplify __srcu_read_unlock() via
this_cpu_dec()", 2012-11-29), __srcu_read_lock() did two increments.
Therefore it kept __this_cpu_inc(), with preempt_disable/enable in
the caller. Tree SRCU however only does one increment, so on most
architectures it is more efficient for __srcu_read_lock() to use
this_cpu_inc(), and any performance differences appear to be down in
the noise.

this_cpu_inc(), and any performance differences appear to be down in
the noise.
Unlike Classic and Tree SRCU, Tiny SRCU does increments and decrements on
a single variable. Therefore, as Peter Zijlstra pointed out, Tiny SRCU's
implementation already supports mixed-context use of srcu_read_lock()
and srcu_read_unlock(), at least as long as uses of srcu_read_lock()
and srcu_read_unlock() in each handler are nested and paired properly.
In other words, it is still illegal to (say) invoke srcu_read_lock()
in an interrupt handler and to invoke the matching srcu_read_unlock()
in a softirq handler. Therefore, the only change required for Tiny SRCU
is to its comments.

While installing SLES-12 (based on v4.4), I found that the installer
will stall for 60+ seconds during LVM disk scan. The root cause was
determined to be the removal of a bound device check in loop_flush()
by commit b5dd2f6047ca ("block: loop: improve performance via blk-mq").
Restoring this check, examining ->lo_state as set by loop_set_fd()
eliminates the bad behavior.
Test method:
modprobe loop max_loop=64
dd if=/dev/zero of=disk bs=512 count=200K
for((i=0;i<4;i++))do losetup -f disk; done
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/loop0
for((i=0;i<4;i++))do mkdir t$i; mount /dev/loop$i t$i;done
for f in `ls /dev/loop[0-9]*|sort`; do \
echo $f; dd if=$f of=/dev/null bs=512 count=1; \
done
Test output: stock patched
/dev/loop0 18.1217e-05 8.3842e-05
/dev/loop1 6.1114e-05 0.000147979
/dev/loop10 0.414701 0.000116564
/dev/loop11 0.7474 6.7942e-05

/dev/loop13 0.746532 7.4799e-05
/dev/loop14 0.480041 9.3926e-05
/dev/loop15 1.26453 7.2522e-05
Note that from loop10 onward, the device is not mounted, yet the
stock kernel consumes several orders of magnitude more wall time
than it does for a mounted device.

The PPC_DT_CPU_FTRs is a bit misplaced in menuconfig, it shows up with
other general kernel options. It's really more at home in the "Platform
Support" section, so move it there.
Also enable it by default, for Book3s 64. It does mostly nothing unless
the device tree properties are found, and we will want it enabled
eventually in distro kernels, so turn it on to start getting more
testing.

This reverts commit cf39bf58afdaabc0b86f141630fb3fd18190294e.
The commit regression to users that define both console=ttyS1
and console=ttyS0 on the command line, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170509082915.GA13236@bistromath.localdomain
The kernel log messages always appeared only on one serial port. It is
even documented in Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst:
"Note that you can only define one console per device type (serial,
video)."
The above mentioned commit changed the order in which the command line
parameters are searched. As a result, the kernel log messages go to
the last mentioned ttyS* instead of the first one.
We long thought that using two console=ttyS* on the command line
did not make sense. But then we realized that console= parameters
were handled also by systemd, see
http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/serial-console.html
"By default systemd will instantiate one serial-getty@.service on
the main kernel console, if it is not a virtual terminal."
where
"[4] If multiple kernel consoles are used simultaneously, the main
console is the one listed first in /sys/class/tty/console/active,
which is the last one listed on the kernel command line."
This puts the original report into another light. The system is running
in qemu. The first serial port is used to store the messages into a file.
The second one is used to login to the system via a socket. It depends
on systemd and the historic kernel behavior.
By other words, systemd causes that it makes sense to define both
console=ttyS1 console=ttyS0 on the command line. The kernel fix
caused regression related to userspace (systemd) and need to be
reverted.
In addition, it went out that the fix helped only partially.
The messages still were duplicated when the boot console was
removed early by late_initcall(printk_late_init). Then the entire
log was replayed when the same console was registered as a normal one.

When doing sampling, for example:
perf record -e cycles:u ...
On workloads that do a lot of kernel entry/exits we see kernel
samples, even though :u is specified. This is due to skid existing.
This might be a security issue because it can leak kernel addresses even
though kernel sampling support is disabled.
The patch drops the kernel samples if exclude_kernel is specified.
For example, test on Haswell desktop:
perf record -e cycles:u <mgen>
perf report --stdio

During early boot, load_ucode_intel_ap() uses __load_ucode_intel()
to obtain a pointer to the relevant microcode patch (embedded in the
initrd), and stores this value in 'intel_ucode_patch' to speed up the
microcode patch application for subsequent CPUs.
On resuming from suspend-to-RAM, however, load_ucode_ap() calls
load_ucode_intel_ap() for each non-boot-CPU. By then the initramfs is
long gone so the pointer stored in 'intel_ucode_patch' no longer points to
a valid microcode patch.
Clear that pointer so that we effectively fall back to the CPU hotplug
notifier callbacks to update the microcode.

hard disk IO latency varies a lot depending on spindle move. The latency
range could be from several microseconds to several milliseconds. It's
pretty hard to get the baseline latency used by io.low.
We will use a different stragety here. The idea is only using IO with
spindle move to determine if cgroup IO is in good state. For HD, if io
latency is small (< 1ms), we ignore the IO. Such IO is likely from
sequential IO, and is helpless to help determine if a cgroup's IO is
impacted by other cgroups. With this, we only account IO with big
latency. Then we can choose a hardcoded baseline latency for HD (4ms,
which is typical IO latency with seek). With all these settings, the
io.low latency works for both HD and SSD.

While introducing HDMI support, component matching on connectors node
were bypassed since no driver would actually bind on the DT node.
But when only a CVBS connector is present, only a single node is found
in the graph, but ignored and a NULL match table is given to the
component code.
This code permits bypassing the components framework by binding directly
the DRM driver when no components needs to be loaded.

The scanline counter is bonkers on VLV/CHV DSI. The scanline counter
increment is not lined up with the start of vblank like it is on
every other platform and output type. This causes problems for
both the vblank timestamping and atomic update vblank evasion.
On my FFRD8 machine at least, the scanline counter increment
happens about 1/3 of a scanline ahead of the start of vblank (which
is where all register latching happens still). That means we can't
trust the scanline counter to tell us whether we're in vblank or not
while we're on that particular line. In order to keep vblank
timestamping in working condition when called from the vblank irq,
we'll leave scanline_offset at one, which means that the entire
line containing the start of vblank is considered to be inside
the vblank.
For the vblank evasion we'll need to consider that entire line
to be bad, since we can't tell whether the registers already
got latched or not. And we can't actually use the start of vblank
interrupt to get us past that line as the interrupt would fire
too soon, and then we'd up waiting for the next start of vblank
instead. One way around that would using the frame start
interrupt instead since that wouldn't fire until the next
scanline, but that would require some bigger changes in the
interrupt code. So for simplicity we'll just poll until we get
past the bad line.
