Most SIGP orders are handled partially in kernel and partially in
user space. In order to:
- Get a correct SIGP SET PREFIX handler that informs user space
- Avoid race conditions between concurrently executed SIGP orders
- Serialize SIGP orders per VCPU
We need to handle all "slow" SIGP orders in user space. The remaining
ones to be handled completely in kernel are:
- SENSE
- SENSE RUNNING
- EXTERNAL CALL
- EMERGENCY SIGNAL
- CONDITIONAL EMERGENCY SIGNAL
According to the PoP, they have to be fast. They can be executed
without conflicting to the actions of other pending/concurrently
executing orders (e.g. STOP vs. START).
This patch introduces a new capability that will - when enabled -
forward all but the mentioned SIGP orders to user space. The
instruction counters in the kernel are still updated.

KVM: s390: only one external call may be pending at a time
Only one external call may be pending at a vcpu at a time. For this
reason, we have to detect whether the SIGP externcal call interpretation
facility is available. If so, all external calls have to be injected
using this mechanism.
SIGP EXTERNAL CALL orders have to return whether another external
call is already pending. This check was missing until now.
SIGP SENSE hasn't returned yet in all conditions whether an external
call was pending.
If a SIGP EXTERNAL CALL irq is to be injected and one is already
pending, -EBUSY is returned.

KVM: s390: a VCPU may only stop when no interrupts are left pending
As a SIGP STOP is an interrupt with the least priority, it may only result
in stop of the vcpu when no other interrupts are left pending.
To detect whether a non-stop irq is pending, we need a way to mask out
stop irqs from the general kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() function. For this
reason, the existing function (with an outdated name) is replaced by
kvm_s390_vcpu_has_irq() which allows to mask out pending stop irqs.

In order to get rid of the action_flags and to properly migrate pending SIGP
STOP irqs triggered e.g. by SIGP STOP AND STORE STATUS, we need to remember
whether to store the status when stopping.
For this reason, a new parameter (flags) for the SIGP STOP irq is introduced.
These flags further define details of the requested STOP and can be easily
migrated.

KVM: s390: forward hrtimer if guest ckc not pending yet
Patch 0759d0681cae ("KVM: s390: cleanup handle_wait by reusing
kvm_vcpu_block") changed the way pending guest clock comparator
interrupts are detected. It was assumed that as soon as the hrtimer
wakes up, the condition for the guest ckc is satisfied.
This is however only true as long as adjclock() doesn't speed
up the monotonic clock. Reason is that the hrtimer is based on
CLOCK_MONOTONIC, the guest clock comparator detection is based
on the raw TOD clock. If CLOCK_MONOTONIC runs faster than the
TOD clock, the hrtimer wakes the target VCPU up too early and
the target VCPU will not detect any pending interrupts, therefore
going back to sleep. It will never be woken up again because the
hrtimer has finished. The VCPU is stuck.
As a quick fix, we have to forward the hrtimer until the guest
clock comparator is really due, to guarantee properly timed wake
ups.
As the hrtimer callback might be triggered on another cpu, we
have to make sure that the timer is really stopped and not currently
executing the callback on another cpu. This can happen if the vcpu
thread is scheduled onto another physical cpu, but the timer base
is not migrated. So lets use hrtimer_cancel instead of try_to_cancel.
A proper fix might be to introduce a RAW based hrtimer.

With commit c6c956b80bdf ("KVM: s390/mm: support gmap page tables with less

As we round up the guest size in respect to the levels of page tables
we get to guest limits of: 2048 MB, 4096 GB, 8192 TB and 16384 PB.
We currently limit the guest size to 16 TB, which means we end up

This patch introduces an interface that allows userspace to tune

While we are doing this, we also can simplify the vcpu_init function, by

SCSI: fix regression in scsi_send_eh_cmnd()
Commit ac61d1955934 (scsi: set correct completion code in
scsi_send_eh_cmnd()) introduced a bug. It changed the stored return
value from a queuecommand call, but it didn't take into account that
the return value was used again later on. This patch fixes the bug by
changing the later usage.
There is a big comment in the middle of scsi_send_eh_cmnd() which
does a good job of explaining how the routine works. But it mentions
a "rtn = FAILURE" value that doesn't exist in the code. This patch
adjusts the code to match the comment (I assume the comment is right
and the code is wrong).
This fixes Bugzilla #88341.

ASoC: Fixes for v3.19
A few fixes for v3.19, a few driver specifics and one core fix which
fixes a boot crash on OMAP if deferred probing kicks in due to
attempting to modify static data.
Currently we enable Exynos devices in the multi v7 defconfig, however, when
testing on my ODROID-U3, I noticed that USB was not working. Enabling this
option causes USB to work, which enables networking support as well since the
ODROID-U3 has networking on the USB bus.
[arnd] Support for odroid-u3 was added in 3.10, so it would be nice to
backport this fix at least that far.

audit: create private file name copies when auditing inodes
Unfortunately, while commit 4a928436 ("audit: correctly record file
names with different path name types") fixed a problem where we were
not recording filenames, it created a new problem by attempting to use
these file names after they had been freed. This patch resolves the
issue by creating a copy of the filename which the audit subsystem
frees after it is done with the string.
At some point it would be nice to resolve this issue with refcounts,
or something similar, instead of having to allocate/copy strings, but
that is almost surely beyond the scope of a -rcX patch so we'll defer
that for later. On the plus side, only audit users should be impacted
by the string copying.

7985090aa020 changed the discard heuristics to give preference to the

Ming Lei discovered that QEMU SCSI's WRITE SAME implementation
internally relied on limits that were only communicated for the UNMAP

Tweak the heuristics so we still pick UNMAP in the LBPRZ=0 case and only
prefer the WRITE SAME variants if the device has the LBPRZ flag set.

mm: get rid of radix tree gfp mask for pagecache_get_page
Commit 2457aec63745 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page
cache allocation where possible") has added a separate parameter for
specifying gfp mask for radix tree allocations.
Not only this is less than optimal from the API point of view because it
is error prone, it is also buggy currently because
grab_cache_page_write_begin is using GFP_KERNEL for radix tree and if
fgp_flags doesn't contain FGP_NOFS (mostly controlled by fs by
AOP_FLAG_NOFS flag) but the mapping_gfp_mask has __GFP_FS cleared then
the radix tree allocation wouldn't obey the restriction and might
recurse into filesystem and cause deadlocks. This is the case for most
filesystems unfortunately because only ext4 and gfs2 are using
AOP_FLAG_NOFS.
Let's simply remove radix_gfp_mask parameter because the allocation
context is same for both page cache and for the radix tree. Just make
sure that the radix tree gets only the sane subset of the mask (e.g. do
not pass __GFP_WRITE).
Long term it is more preferable to convert remaining users of
AOP_FLAG_NOFS to use mapping_gfp_mask instead and simplify this
interface even further.

video/logo: prevent use of logos after they have been freed
If the probe of an fb driver has been deferred due to missing
dependencies, and the probe is later ran when a module is loaded, the
fbdev framework will try to find a logo to use.
However, the logos are __initdata, and have already been freed. This
causes sometimes page faults, if the logo memory is not mapped,
sometimes other random crashes as the logo data is invalid, and
sometimes nothing, if the fbdev decides to reject the logo (e.g. the
random value depicting the logo's height is too big).
This patch adds a late_initcall function to mark the logos as freed. In
reality the logos are freed later, and fbdev probe may be ran between
this late_initcall and the freeing of the logos. In that case we will
miss drawing the logo, even if it would be possible.

Before commit 0e60b0799fed (kvm: change memslot sorting rule from size

that a valid memslot couldn't have its sorting key equal to zero.
On the other hand, a valid memslot can have base_gfn == 0, and invalid
memslots are identified by base_gfn == npages == 0.
Because of this, commit 0e60b0799fed broke the invariant that invalid
memslots are at the end of the mslots array. When a memslot with
base_gfn == 0 was created, any invalid memslot before it were left
in place.
This can be fixed by changing the insertion to use a ">=" comparison
instead of "<=", but some care is needed to avoid breaking the case
of deleting a memslot; see the comment in update_memslots.

Netlink families can exist in multiple namespaces, and for the most
part multicast subscriptions are per network namespace. Thus it only
makes sense to have bind/unbind notifications per network namespace.

Also do this in generic netlink, and there also make sure that any
bind for multicast groups that only exist in init_net is rejected.
This isn't really a problem if it is accepted since a client in a
different namespace will never receive any notifications from such
a group, but it can confuse the family if not rejected (it's also
possible to silently (without telling the family) accept it, but it
would also have to be ignored on unbind so families that take any
kind of action on bind/unbind won't do unnecessary work for invalid
clients like that.
