git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel v4.6. There is quite a
lot of interesting stuff going on.
The patches to other subsystems and arch-wide are ACKed as far as
possible, though I consider things like per-arch <asm/gpio.h> as
essentially a part of the GPIO subsystem so it should not be needed.
Core changes:
- The gpio_chip is now a *real device*. Until now the gpio chips
were just piggybacking the parent device or (gasp) floating in
space outside of the device model.
We now finally make GPIO chips devices. The gpio_chip will create
a gpio_device which contains a struct device, and this gpio_device
struct is kept private. Anything that needs to be kept private
from the rest of the kernel will gradually be moved over to the
gpio_device.
- As a result of making the gpio_device a real device, we have added
resource management, so devm_gpiochip_add_data() will cut down on
overhead and reduce code lines. A huge slew of patches convert
almost all drivers in the subsystem to use this.
- Building on making the GPIO a real device, we add the first step of
a new userspace ABI: the GPIO character device. We take small
steps here, so we first add a pure *information* ABI and the tool
"lsgpio" that will list all GPIO devices on the system and all
lines on these devices.
We can now discover GPIOs properly from userspace. We still have
not come up with a way to actually *use* GPIOs from userspace.
- To encourage people to use the character device for the future, we
have it always-enabled when using GPIO. The old sysfs ABI is still
opt-in (and can be used in parallel), but is marked as deprecated.
We will keep it around for the foreseeable future, but it will not
be extended to cover ever more use cases.
Cleanup:
- Bjorn Helgaas removed a whole slew of per-architecture <asm/gpio.h>
includes.
This dates back to when GPIO was an opt-in feature and no shared
library even existed: just a header file with proper prototypes was
provided and all semantics were up to the arch to implement. These
patches make the GPIO chip even more a proper device and cleans out
leftovers of the old in-kernel API here and there.
Still some cruft is left but it's very little now.
- There is still some clamping of return values for .get() going on,
but we now return sane values in the vast majority of drivers and
the errorpath is sanitized. Some patches for powerpc, blackfin and
unicore still drop in.
- We continue to switch the ARM, MIPS, blackfin, m68k local GPIO
implementations to use gpiochip_add_data() and cut down on code
lines.
- MPC8xxx is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.
- ATH79 is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.
New drivers:
- WinSystems WS16C48
- Acces 104-DIO-48E
- F81866 (a F7188x variant)
- Qoric (a MPC8xxx variant)
- TS-4800
- SPI serializers (pisosr): simple 74xx shift registers connected to
SPI to obtain a dirt-cheap output-only GPIO expander.
- Texas Instruments TPIC2810
- Texas Instruments TPS65218
- Texas Instruments TPS65912
- X-Gene (ARM64) standby GPIO controller"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"Here are the main arm64 updates for 4.6. There are some relatively
intrusive changes to support KASLR, the reworking of the kernel
virtual memory layout and initial page table creation.
Summary:
- Initial page table creation reworked to avoid breaking large block
mappings (huge pages) into smaller ones. The ARM architecture
requires break-before-make in such cases to avoid TLB conflicts but
that's not always possible on live page tables
- Kernel virtual memory layout: the kernel image is no longer linked
to the bottom of the linear mapping (PAGE_OFFSET) but at the bottom
of the vmalloc space, allowing the kernel to be loaded (nearly)
anywhere in physical RAM
- Kernel ASLR: position independent kernel Image and modules being
randomly mapped in the vmalloc space with the randomness is
provided by UEFI (efi_get_random_bytes() patches merged via the
arm64 tree, acked by Matt Fleming)
- Implement relative exception tables for arm64, required by KASLR
(initial code for ARCH_HAS_RELATIVE_EXTABLE added to lib/extable.c
but actual x86 conversion to deferred to 4.7 because of the merge
dependencies)
- Support for the User Access Override feature of ARMv8.2: this
allows uaccess functions (get_user etc.) to be implemented using
LDTR/STTR instructions. Such instructions, when run by the kernel,
perform unprivileged accesses adding an extra level of protection.
The set_fs() macro is used to "upgrade" such instruction to
privileged accesses via the UAO bit
- Half-precision floating point support (part of ARMv8.2)
- Optimisations for CPUs with or without a hardware prefetcher (using
run-time code patching)
- copy_page performance improvement to deal with 128 bytes at a time
- Sanity checks on the CPU capabilities (via CPUID) to prevent
incompatible secondary CPUs from being brought up (e.g. weird
big.LITTLE configurations)
- valid_user_regs() reworked for better sanity check of the
sigcontext information (restored pstate information)
- ACPI parking protocol implementation
- CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA enabled by default
- VDSO code marked as read-only
- DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support
- ARCH_HAS_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL enabled
- Erratum workaround Cavium ThunderX SoC
- set_pte_at() fix for PROT_NONE mappings

Now SYN_RECV request sockets are installed in ehash table, an ICMP
handler can find a request socket while another cpu handles an incoming
packet transforming this SYN_RECV request socket into an ESTABLISHED
socket.
We need to remove the now obsolete WARN_ON(req->sk), since req->sk
is set when a new child is created and added into listener accept queue.
If this race happens, the ICMP will do nothing special.

Implement basic character sets for the '%[' conversion specifier.
The '%[' conversion specifier matches a nonempty sequence of characters
from the specified set of accepted (or with '^', rejected) characters
between the brackets. The substring matched is to be made up of
characters in (or not in) the set. This is useful for matching
substrings that are delimited by something other than spaces.
This implementation differs from its glibc counterpart in the following ways:
(1) No support for character ranges (e.g., 'a-z' or '0-9')
(2) The hyphen '-' is not a special character
(3) The closing bracket ']' cannot be matched
(4) No support (yet) for discarding matching input ('%*[')
The bitmap code is largely based upon sample code which was provided by
Rasmus.
The motivation for adding character set support to sscanf originally
stemmed from the kernel livepatching project. An ongoing patchset
utilizes new livepatch Elf symbol and section names to store important
metadata livepatch needs to properly apply its patches. Such metadata
is stored in these section and symbol names as substrings delimited by
periods '.' and commas ','. For example, a livepatch symbol name might
look like this:
.klp.sym.vmlinux.printk,0
However, sscanf currently can only extract "substrings" delimited by
whitespace using the "%s" specifier. Thus for the above symbol name,
one cannot not use sscanf() to extract substrings "vmlinux" or
"printk", for example. A number of discussions on the livepatch
mailing list dealing with string parsing code for extracting these '.'
and ',' delimited substrings eventually led to the conclusion that such
code would be completely unnecessary if the kernel sscanf() supported
character sets. Thus only a single sscanf() call would be necessary to
extract these substrings. In addition, such an addition to sscanf()
could benefit other areas of the kernel that might have a similar need
in the future.

The traceoff_on_warning option doesn't have any effect on s390, powerpc,
arm64, parisc, and sh because there are two different types of WARN
implementations:
1) The above mentioned architectures treat WARN() as a special case of a
BUG() exception. They handle warnings in report_bug() in lib/bug.c.
2) All other architectures just call warn_slowpath_*() directly. Their
warnings are handled in warn_slowpath_common() in kernel/panic.c.
Support traceoff_on_warning on all architectures and prevent any future
divergence by using a single common function to emit the warning.
Also remove the '()' from '%pS()', because the parentheses look funky:

shmem likes to occasionally drop the lock, schedule, then reacqire the
lock and continue with the iteration from the last place it left off.
This is currently done with a pretty ugly goto. Introduce

Instead of a 'goto restart', we can now use radix_tree_iter_retry() to
restart from our current position. This will make a difference when
there are more ways to happen across an indirect pointer. And it
eliminates some confusing gotos.

With huge pages, it is convenient to have the radix tree be able to
return an entry that covers multiple indices. Previous attempts to deal
with the problem have involved inserting N duplicate entries, which is a
waste of memory and leads to problems trying to handle aliased tags, or
probing the tree multiple times to find alternative entries which might
cover the requested index.
This approach inserts one canonical entry into the tree for a given
range of indices, and may also insert other entries in order to ensure
that lookups find the canonical entry.
This solution only tolerates inserting powers of two that are greater
than the fanout of the tree. If we wish to expand the radix tree's
abilities to support large-ish pages that is less than the fanout at the
penultimate level of the tree, then we would need to add one more step
in lookup to ensure that any sibling nodes in the final level of the
tree are dereferenced and we return the canonical entry that they
reference.

Some small modifications were necessary to the test harness to fix the
build with the current Linux source code.
I also made minor modifications to automatically test the radix-tree.c
and radix-tree.h files that are in the current source tree, as opposed
to a copied and slightly modified version. I am sure more could be done
to tidy up the harness, as well as adding more tests.

Christian Borntraeger reported that panic_on_warn doesn't have any
effect on s390.
The panic_on_warn feature was introduced with 9e3961a09798 ("kernel: add
panic_on_warn"). However it did care only for the case when
WANT_WARN_ON_SLOWPATH is defined. This is turn is only the case for
architectures which do not have an own __WARN_TAINT defined.
Other architectures which do have __WARN_TAINT defined call report_bug()
for warnings within lib/bug.c which does not call panic() in case
panic_on_warn is set.
Let's simply enable the panic_on_warn feature by adding the same code
like it was added to warn_slowpath_common() in panic.c.
This enables panic_on_warn also for arm64, parisc, powerpc, s390 and sh.

console_unlock() allows to cond_resched() if its caller has set
`console_may_schedule' to 1, since 8d91f8b15361 ("printk: do
cond_resched() between lines while outputting to consoles").
The rules are:
-- console_lock() always sets `console_may_schedule' to 1
-- console_trylock() always sets `console_may_schedule' to 0
However, console_trylock() callers (among them is printk()) do not
always call printk() from atomic contexts, and some of them can
cond_resched() in console_unlock(), so console_trylock() can set
`console_may_schedule' to 1 for such processes.
For !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT kernels, however, console_trylock() always
sets `console_may_schedule' to 0.
It's possible to drop explicit preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() in
vprintk_emit(), because console_unlock() and console_trylock() are now
smart enough:
a) console_unlock() does not cond_resched() when it's unsafe
(console_trylock() takes care of that)
b) console_unlock() does can_use_console() check.
