We have no major new features this time, but there are a few significant changes of how things work. The most visible one will probably be that we are now going to create platform devices rather than PNP devices by default for ACPI device objects with _HID. That was long overdue and will be really necessary to be able to use the same drivers for the same hardware blocks on ACPI and DT-based systems going forward. We're not expecting fallout from this one (as usual), but it's something to watch nevertheless. The second change having a chance to be visible is that ACPI video will now default to using native backlight rather than the ACPI backlight interface which should generally help systems with broken Win8 BIOSes. We're hoping that all problems with the native backlight handling that we had previously have been addressed and we are in a good enough shape to flip the default, but this change should be easy enough to revert if need be. In addition to that, the system suspend core has a new mechanism to allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended throughout system suspend/resume transitions if some extra conditions are met (generally, they are related to coordination within device hierarchy). However, enabling this feature requires cooperation from the bus type layer and for now it has only been implemented for the ACPI PM domain (used by ACPI-enumerated platform devices mostly today). Also, the acpidump utility that was previously shipped as a separate tool will now be provided by the upstream ACPICA along with the rest of ACPICA code, which will allow it to be more up to date and better supported, and we have one new cpuidle driver (ARM clps711x). The rest is improvements related to certain specific use cases, cleanups and fixes all over the place. Specifics: - ACPICA update to upstream version 20140424. That includes a number of fixes and improvements related to things like GPE handling, table loading, headers, memory mapping and unmapping, DSDT/SSDT overriding, and the Unload() operator. The acpidump utility from upstream ACPICA is included too. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, David Box, David Binderman, and Colin Ian King. - Fixes and cleanups related to ACPI video and backlight interfaces from Hans de Goede. That includes blacklist entries for some new machines and using native backlight by default. - ACPI device enumeration changes to create platform devices rather than PNP devices for ACPI device objects with _HID by default. PNP devices will still be created for the ACPI device object with device IDs corresponding to real PNP devices, so that change should not break things left and right, and we're expecting to see more and more ACPI-enumerated platform devices in the future. From Zhang Rui and Rafael J Wysocki. - Updates for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver allowing it to handle system suspend/resume on Asus T100 correctly. From Heikki Krogerus and Rafael J Wysocki. - PM core update introducing a mechanism to allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended over system suspend/resume transitions if certain additional conditions related to coordination within device hierarchy are met. Related PM documentation update and ACPI PM domain support for the new feature. From Rafael J Wysocki. - Fixes and improvements related to the "freeze" sleep state. They affect several places including cpuidle, PM core, ACPI core, and the ACPI battery driver. From Rafael J Wysocki and Zhang Rui. - Miscellaneous fixes and updates of the ACPI core from Aaron Lu, Bjørn Mork, Hanjun Guo, Lan Tianyu, and Rafael J Wysocki. - Fixes and cleanups for the ACPI processor and ACPI PAD (Processor Aggregator Device) drivers from Baoquan He, Manuel Schölling, Tony Camuso, and Toshi Kani. - System suspend/resume optimization in the ACPI battery driver from Lan Tianyu. - OPP (Operating Performance Points) subsystem updates from Chander Kashyap, Mark Brown, and Nishanth Menon. - cpufreq core fixes, updates and cleanups from Srivatsa S Bhat, Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar. - Updates, fixes and cleanups for the Tegra, powernow-k8, imx6q, s5pv210, nforce2, and powernv cpufreq drivers from Brian Norris, Jingoo Han, Paul Bolle, Philipp Zabel, Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar. - intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups from Dirk Brandewie, Doug Smythies, and Stratos Karafotis. - Enabling the big.LITTLE cpufreq driver on arm64 from Mark Brown. - Fix for the cpuidle menu governor from Chander Kashyap. - New ARM clps711x cpuidle driver from Alexander Shiyan. - Hibernate core fixes and cleanups from Chen Gang, Dan Carpenter, Fabian Frederick, Pali Rohár, and Sebastian Capella. - Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) driver updates from Jacob Pan. - PNP subsystem updates from Bjorn Helgaas and Fabian Frederick. - devfreq core updates from Chanwoo Choi and Paul Bolle. - devfreq updates for exynos4 and exynos5 from Chanwoo Choi and Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz. - turbostat tool fix from Jean Delvare. - cpupower tool updates from Prarit Bhargava, Ramkumar Ramachandra and Thomas Renninger. - New ACPI ec_access.c tool for poking at the EC in a safe way from Thomas Renninger" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (187 commits) ACPICA: Namespace: Remove _PRP method support. intel_pstate: Improve initial busy calculation intel_pstate: add sample time scaling intel_pstate: Correct rounding in busy calculation intel_pstate: Remove C0 tracking PM / hibernate: fixed typo in comment ACPI: Fix x86 regression related to early mapping size limitation ACPICA: Tables: Add mechanism to control early table checksum verification.

| | * ACPI: Clean up acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to eliminate __iomem.Lv Zheng2014-05-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ACPICA doesn't include protections around address space checking, Linux build tests always complain increased sparse warnings around ACPICA internal acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() invocations. This patch tries to fix this issue permanently. There are 2 choices left for us to solve this issue: 1. Add __iomem address space awareness into ACPICA. 2. Remove sparse checker of __iomem from ACPICA source code. This patch chooses solution 2, because: 1. Most of the acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() invocations are used for ACPICA. table mappings, which in fact are not IO addresses. 2. The only IO addresses usage is for "system memory space" mapping code in: drivers/acpi/acpica/exregion.c drivers/acpi/acpica/evrgnini.c drivers/acpi/acpica/exregion.c The mapped address is accessed in the handler of "system memory space" - acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler(). This function in fact can be changed to invoke acpi_os_read/write_memory() so that __iomem can always be type-casted in the OSL layer. According to the above investigation, we drew the following conclusion: It is not a good idea to introduce __iomem address space awareness into ACPICA mostly in order to protect non-IO addresses. We can simply remove __iomem for acpi_os_map/unmap_memory() to remove __iomem checker for ACPICA code. Then we need to enforce external usages to invoke other APIs that are aware of __iomem address space. The external usages are: drivers/acpi/apei/einj.c drivers/acpi/acpi_extlog.c drivers/char/tpm/tpm_acpi.c drivers/acpi/nvs.c This patch thus performs cleanups in this way: 1. Add acpi_os_map/unmap_iomem() to be invoked by non-ACPICA code. 2. Remove __iomem from acpi_os_map/unmap_memory(). Signed-off-by: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

All from Christoph. - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph. - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for blk-mq from Ming Lei. - A flew of blk-mq updates from me: * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU to queue mapping. This enables optimizations in the driver. * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never really worked well for blk-mq. percpu_ida relies on the fact that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to exhausting) the tag space. * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq * Various fixes for IO timeouts. * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations. - Remove 'buffer' from struct request. This is ancient code, from when requests were always virtually mapped. Kill it, to reclaim some space in struct request. From me. - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug. Since we store these on the stack and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just get rid of it. From me. - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two atomic reads. Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing IO on blk-mq. From me. - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/.

As a result, the TPM driver fails to load on those machines after commit 1569a4c4ceba (ACPI / TPM: detect PPI features by checking availability of _DSM functions) which causes them to fail to resume from system suspend, becuase they require the TPM hardware to be put into the right state during resume and the TPM driver is necessary for that. Fix the problem by making tpm_add_ppi() return 0 when tpm_ppi_handle is still NULL after walking the ACPI namespace in search for the PPI _DSM, which allows the TPM driver to load and operate the hardware (during system resume in particular), but avoid creating the PPI sysfs group in that case. This change is based on a prototype patch from Jiang Liu.

If there is nothing waiting for these events, it's really kind of pointless to be checking for them. So modify the driver so the message handler can pass down if it needs the lower layer to be waiting for these. Modify the system interface lower layer to turn off all timer and thread activity if the upper layer doesn't need anything and it is not currently handling messages. And modify the message handler to not restart the timer if its timer is not needed. The timers and kthread will still be enabled if: - the SI interface is handling a message. - a user has enabled watching for events. - the IPMI watchdog timer is in use (since it uses pretimeouts). - the message handler is waiting on a remote response. - a user has registered to receive commands. This mostly affects interfaces without interrupts. Interfaces with interrupts already don't use CPU in the system interface when the interface is idle.

The thread will not start the timer in that instance, resulting in the timer not running. Instead, move all timer operations under the lock and start the timer in the thread if it detect non-idle and the timer is not already running. Moving under locks allows the last timeout to be set in both the thread and the timer. 'Timer is not running' means that the timer is not pending and smi_timeout() is not running. So we need a flag to detect this correctly. Also fix a few other timeout bugs: setting the last timeout when the interrupt has to be disabled and the timer started, and setting the last timeout in check_start_timer_thread possibly racing with the timer Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@ts.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

During entropy pool initialization, use RDSEED in favor of RDRAND, with a fallback to the latter. Entropy exhaustion is unlikely to happen there on physical hardware as the machine is single-threaded at that point, but could happen in a virtual machine. In that case, the fallback to RDRAND will still provide more than adequate entropy pool initialization. 2. Once a second, issue RDSEED and, if successful, feed it to the entropy pool. To ensure an extra layer of security, only credit half the entropy just in case.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To help assuage the fears of those who think the NSA can introduce a massive hack into the instruction decode and out of order execution engine in the CPU without hundreds of Intel engineers knowing about it (only one of which woud need to have the conscience and courage of Edward Snowden to spill the beans to the public), use the HWRNG to initialize the SHA starting value, instead of xor'ing it in afterwards.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The variable 'entropy_bytes' is set from an expression that actually counts bits. Fortunately it's also only compared to values that also count bits. Rename it accordingly. Signed-off-by: Greg Price <price@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

As a bonus the code becomes less nested, and the "wakeup_write" flag variable becomes unnecessary. The variable "flags" was already unused. This code behaves identically to the previous version except in two pathological cases that don't occur. If the argument "nbytes" is already less than "min", then we didn't previously enforce "min". If r->limit is false while "reserved" is nonzero, then we previously applied "reserved" in checking whether we had enough bits, even though we don't apply it to actually limit how many we take. The callers of account() never exercise either of these cases. Before the previous commit, it was possible for "nbytes" to be less than "min" if userspace chose a pathological configuration, but no longer. Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Cc: "H.

It doesn't make sense to pull more bits than the whole size of an output pool. We could and possibly should separate the quantities "how much should the input pool have to have to wake up /dev/random readers" and "how much should we transfer from the input to an output pool at a time", but nobody is likely to be sad they can't set the first quantity to more than 1024 bits, so for now just limit them both.

The equivalence depends on one fact from outside this function: when 'r->limit' is false, 'reserved' is zero. (Well, two facts; the other is that 'reserved' is never negative.)

Also since a996996dd75a ("random: drop weird m_time/a_time manipulation") we don't do anything after the loop finishes, so the 'break's might as well return directly. Some other simplifications.
