sched/fair: Do not migrate if the prev_cpu is idle
wake_affine_idle() prefers to move a task to the current CPU if the
wakeup is due to an interrupt. The expectation is that the interrupt
data is cache hot and relevant to the waking task as well as avoiding
a search. However, there is no way to determine if there was cache hot
data on the previous CPU that may exceed the interrupt data. Furthermore,
round-robin delivery of interrupts can migrate tasks around a socket where
each CPU is under-utilised. This can interact badly with cpufreq which
makes decisions based on per-cpu data. It has been observed on machines
with HWP that p-states are not boosted to their maximum levels even though
the workload is latency and throughput sensitive.
This patch uses the previous CPU for the task if it's idle and cache-affine
with the current CPU even if the current CPU is idle due to the wakup
being related to the interrupt. This reduces migrations at the cost of
the interrupt data not being cache hot when the task wakes.
A variety of workloads were tested on various machines and no adverse
impact was noticed that was outside noise. dbench on ext4 on UMA showed
roughly 10% reduction in the number of CPU migrations and it is a case
where interrupts are frequent for IO competions. In most cases, the
difference in performance is quite small but variability is often
reduced. For example, this is the result for pgbench running on a UMA
machine with different numbers of clients.

sched/rt: Up the root domain ref count when passing it around via IPIs
When issuing an IPI RT push, where an IPI is sent to each CPU that has more
than one RT task scheduled on it, it references the root domain's rto_mask,
that contains all the CPUs within the root domain that has more than one RT
task in the runable state. The problem is, after the IPIs are initiated, the
rq->lock is released. This means that the root domain that is associated to
the run queue could be freed while the IPIs are going around.
Add a sched_get_rd() and a sched_put_rd() that will increment and decrement
the root domain's ref count respectively. This way when initiating the IPIs,
the scheduler will up the root domain's ref count before releasing the
rq->lock, ensuring that the root domain does not go away until the IPI round
is complete.

sched/rt: Use container_of() to get root domain in rto_push_irq_work_func()
When the rto_push_irq_work_func() is called, it looks at the RT overloaded
bitmask in the root domain via the runqueue (rq->rd). The problem is that
during CPU up and down, nothing here stops rq->rd from changing between
taking the rq->rd->rto_lock and releasing it. That means the lock that is
released is not the same lock that was taken.
Instead of using this_rq()->rd to get the root domain, as the irq work is
part of the root domain, we can simply get the root domain from the irq work
that is passed to the routine:
container_of(work, struct root_domain, rto_push_work)
This keeps the root domain consistent.

membarrier/x86: Provide core serializing command
There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier:
1) When returning from the membarrier IPI,
2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before
going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to
check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU.
x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, and both IRET and SYSEXIT to go
back to user-space. The IRET instruction is core serializing, but not
SYSEXIT.
x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat
code), SYSRETQ, or IRET. Given that SYSRET{L,Q} is not core serializing,
we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core
serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special
case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into
active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case.
Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.

membarrier: Provide core serializing command, *_SYNC_CORE
Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim by JIT. Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before going back to user-space). They should then select ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on their architecture. Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space, or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().

membarrier: Provide GLOBAL_EXPEDITED command
Allow expedited membarrier to be used for data shared between processes through shared memory. Processes wishing to receive the membarriers register with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. Those which want to issue membarrier invoke MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. This allows extremely simple kernel-level implementation: we have almost everything we need with the PRIVATE_EXPEDITED barrier code. All we need to do is to add a flag in the mm_struct that will be used to check whether we need to send the IPI to the current thread of each CPU. There is a slight downside to this approach compared to targeting specific shared memory users: when performing a membarrier operation, all registered "global" receivers will get the barrier, even if they don't share a memory mapping with the sender issuing MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. This registration approach seems to fit the requirement of not disturbing processes that really deeply care about real-time: they simply should not register with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. In order to align the membarrier command names, the "MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED" command is renamed to "MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL", keeping an alias of MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED to MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL for UAPI header backward compatibility.

membarrier: Document scheduler barrier requirements
Document the membarrier requirement on having a full memory barrier in __schedule() after coming from user-space, before storing to rq->curr. It is provided by smp_mb__after_spinlock() in __schedule(). Document that membarrier requires a full barrier on transition from kernel thread to userspace thread.

powerpc, membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm()
Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a process that has registered to use expedited private. Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences: It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the number of threads using a VM. We can use (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1) instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has a single user, and that user only has a single thread. It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the thread group. Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than relying on thread flags. This means membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows private expedited membarrier commands to succeed. membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

"Kernel side changes:
- Clean up the x86 instruction decoder (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Add new uprobes optimization for PUSH instructions on x86 (Yonghong
Song)
- Add MSR_IA32_THERM_STATUS to the MSR events (Stephane Eranian)
- Fix misc bugs, update documentation, plus various cleanups (Jiri

There's a large number of tooling side improvements:
- Intel-PT/BTS improvements (Adrian Hunter)
- Numerous 'perf trace' improvements (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Introduce an errno code to string facility (Hendrik Brueckner)
- Various build system improvements (Jiri Olsa)
- Add support for CoreSight trace decoding by making the perf tools

- libtraceevent updates (Steven Rostedt)
- Intel vendor event JSON updates (Andi Kleen)
- Introduce 'perf report --mmaps' and 'perf report --tasks' to show
info present in 'perf.data' (Jiri Olsa, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add infrastructure to record first and last sample time to the
perf.data file header, so that when processing all samples in a
'perf record' session, such as when doing build-id processing, or
when specifically requesting that that info be recorded, use that
in 'perf report --time', that also got support for percent slices
in addition to absolute ones.
I.e. now it is possible to ask for the samples in the 10%-20% time
slice of a perf.data file (Jin Yao)
- Allow system wide 'perf stat --per-thread', sorting the result (Jin
Yao)

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The timer departement presents:
- A rather large rework of the hrtimer infrastructure which
introduces softirq based hrtimers to replace the spread of
hrtimer/tasklet combos which force the actual callback execution
into softirq context. The approach is completely different from the
initial implementation which you cursed at 10 years ago rightfully.
The softirq based timers have their own queues and there is no
nasty indirection and list reshuffling in the hard interrupt
anymore. This comes with conversion of some of the hrtimer/tasklet
users, the rest and the final removal of that horrible interface
will come towards the end of the merge window or go through the
relevant maintainer trees.
Note: The top commit merged the last minute bugfix for the 10 years

Merge tag 'iversion-v4.16-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux
Pull inode->i_version rework from Jeff Layton:
"This pile of patches is a rework of the inode->i_version field. We
have traditionally incremented that field on every inode data or
metadata change. Typically this increment needs to be logged on disk
even when nothing else has changed, which is rather expensive.
It turns out though that none of the consumers of that field actually
require this behavior. The only real requirement for all of them is
that it be different iff the inode has changed since the last time the
field was checked.
Given that, we can optimize away most of the i_version increments and
avoid dirtying inode metadata when the only change is to the i_version
and no one is querying it. Queries of the i_version field are rather
rare, so we can help write performance under many common workloads.
This patch series converts existing accesses of the i_version field to
a new API, and then converts all of the in-kernel filesystems to use
it. The last patch in the series then converts the backend
implementation to a scheme that optimizes away a large portion of the
metadata updates when no one is looking at it.
In my own testing this series significantly helps performance with
small I/O sizes. I also got this email for Christmas this year from
the kernel test robot (a 244% r/w bandwidth improvement with XFS over
DAX, with 4k writes):
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/25/8
A few of the earlier patches in this pile are also flowing to you via
other trees (mm, integrity, and nfsd trees in particular)".

Merge branch 'for-4.16/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block IO related changes for the
4.16 kernel. Nothing major in this pull request, but a good amount of
improvements and fixes all over the map. This contains:
- BFQ improvements, fixes, and cleanups from Angelo, Chiara, and
Paolo.
- Support for SMR zones for deadline and mq-deadline from Damien and
Christoph.
- Set of fixes for bcache by way of Michael Lyle, including fixes
from himself, Kent, Rui, Tang, and Coly.
- Series from Matias for lightnvm with fixes from Hans Holmberg,
Javier, and Matias. Mostly centered around pblk, and the removing
rrpc 1.2 in preparation for supporting 2.0.
- A couple of NVMe pull requests from Christoph. Nothing major in
here, just fixes and cleanups, and support for command tracing from
Johannes.
- Support for blk-throttle for tracking reads and writes separately.
From Joseph Qi. A few cleanups/fixes also for blk-throttle from
Weiping.
- Series from Mike Snitzer that enables dm to register its queue more
logically, something that's alwways been problematic on dm since
it's a stacked device.
- Series from Ming cleaning up some of the bio accessor use, in
preparation for supporting multipage bvecs.
- Various fixes from Ming closing up holes around queue mapping and
quiescing.
- BSD partition fix from Richard Narron, fixing a problem where we
can't mount newer (10/11) FreeBSD partitions.
- Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous
scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think
a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time.
- null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better
exercise and test that functionality separately. From me.
- Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After
this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all. From
me.
- sgl_alloc/free helpers from Bart.
- Heavily contended tag case scalability improvement from me.
- Various little fixes and cleanups from Arnd, Bart, Corentin,
Douglas, Eryu, Goldwyn, and myself"

regmap: Updates for v4.16
A very busy release for regmap, all fairly specialist stuff but useful:
- Support for disabling locking from Bartosz Golaszewski, allowing
users that handle their own locking to save some overhead.
- Support for hwspinlocks in syscons in MFD from Baolin Wang, this is
going through the regmap tree since the first users turned up some
some cases that needed interface tweaks with 0 being used as a syscon
identifier.
- Support for devices with no read or write flag from Andrew F. Davis.
- Basic support for devices on SoundWire buses from Vinod Koul.

regulator: Changes for v4.16
This is a quiet release in terms of code volume but a fairly big one in
terms of framework changes - we've got one long awaited feature in the
form of runtime configuration of suspend and the start of coupled
regulator support too:
- Support for modifying the voltage and enable configuration devices
will have in suspend, contributed by Chunyan Zhang.
- Support for the Spreadtrum SC2731, contributed by Erick Chen.
- The start of changes to support coupled regulators from Maciej
Purski, the rest of the series should arrive for v4.17.

spi: Updates for v4.16
Quite a quiet release for SPI, there are no changes at all to the core
and not that many changes to drivers. Highlights of those driver
changes include:
- SH MSIOF support for GPIO chip selects contributed by Geert
Uytterhoeven.
- Full duplex support for a3700 contributed by Maxime Chevallier.
- Support for DMA transfers on Atmel devices that require a bounce
buffer contributed by Radu Pirea.

There are two major achievements for MMC in this release, which deserves to be
specially highlighted.
First, we have converted the MMC block device from using the legacy blk
interface into using the modern blkmq interface. Not only do we get all the
nice effects from using blkmq, but it also means that new fresh nice code
replaces old rusty code. Great news to everybody that cares about MMC/SD!
It should also be noted that converting to blkmq has not been trivial, mostly
because of that we have been carrying too much of MMC specific optimizations
for the I/O request path, rather than striving to move these to the generic blk
layer. Hopefully we won't be doing that mistake, ever again.
Special thanks to Adrian Hunter (Intel) and to Linus Walleij (Linaro), who both
have been working on this for quite some time!
Second, on top of the blkmq deployment, we have enabled full support the eMMC
command queuing feature, introduced in the eMMC v.5.1 spec. This also includes
an implementation of a host driver library, supporting the corresponding CQHCI
HW. Ideally, those controllers that supports CQHCI should only need some minor
adaptations to make this play.
So far the sdhci-pci driver for the Intel GLKs and the sdhci-of-arasan driver
used on Rockchip RK3399, have enabled support for eMMC command queueing.
Worth to highlight is also that, implementing the eMMC command queuing support
has been a collaborative effort, as several people from Codeaurora, Rockchip,
Intel and Linaro have been involved. However, the work has been driven by
Adrian Hunter (Intel).
In some shadow of the above, here are the rest of the highlights:
MMC core:
- Don't remove non-removable cards during system suspend
- Add a slot-gpio helper to check capability of GPIO WP detection
MMC host:
- sdhci: Cleanups and improvements of some wakeup related code
- sdhci-pci-arasan: New variant to support Arasan PCI HW with integrated phy
- sdhci-acpi: Avoid broken UHS transfer modes on Intel CHT
- sdhci-acpi: Add support for ACPI HID of AMD Controller with HS400
- sdhci_f_sdh30: Add ACPI support
- sdhci-esdhc-imx: Enable/disable clock at runtime suspend/resume
- sdhci-of-esdhc: A few minor fixes
- mmci: Add support for new STM32 variant
- renesas_sdhi: enable R-Car D3 (r8a77995) support
- tmio/renesas_sdhi: Re-structuring, cleanups and modernizations
