Zytronic panels shows a new way of setting the Input Mode feature.
This feature is put in the second usage in the HID feature, instead
of the first, as the majority of the multitouch devices.
This patch adds a detection step when the feature is presented to know
where the feature is located in the report. We can then trigger the right
command to the device. This removes the magic number "0" in the function
mt_set_input_mode.

This is usually the case, and to allow the user to do so, which is
helpful if the user is creating different min configs based on tests,
and they know one is a superset of another test, they can set
USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to one, which will prevent kest.pl from prompting
to use the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG and it will just use it.
If USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONIFG is set to zero, then ktest.pl will continue to
use MIN_CONFIG instead.

virtio-blk: Fix hot-unplug race in remove method
If we reset the virtio-blk device before the requests already dispatched
to the virtio-blk driver from the block layer are finised, we will stuck
in blk_cleanup_queue() and the remove will fail.
blk_cleanup_queue() calls blk_drain_queue() to drain all requests queued
before DEAD marking. However it will never success if the device is
already stopped. We'll have q->in_flight[] > 0, so the drain will not
finish.
How to reproduce the race:
1. hot-plug a virtio-blk device
2. keep reading/writing the device in guest
3. hot-unplug while the device is busy serving I/O
Test:
~1000 rounds of hot-plug/hot-unplug test passed with this patch.

- Drop blk_abort_queue and blk_abort_request
- Use __blk_end_request_all to complete request dispatched to driver

It turns out the d_unhashed() check isn't unnecessary after all: while
it's true that unhashing will increment the sequence numbers, that does
not necessarily invalidate the RCU lookup, because it might have seen
the dentry pointer (before it got unhashed), but by the time it loaded
the sequence number, it could have seen the *new* sequence number (after
it got unhashed).
End result: we might look up an unhashed dentry that is about to be
freed, with the sequence number never indicating anything bad about it.
So checking that the dentry is still hashed (*after* reading the sequence
number) is indeed the proper fix, and was never unnecessary.

to use the register cache support to allow the register map to remain
available while the device is suspended.
- A MMIO bus implementation, contributed by Stephen Warren. Currently
this is limited to 32 bit systems and native endian registers.
- Support for naming register maps, mainly intended for MMIO devices
with multiple register banks. This was also contributed by Stephen
Warren.
- Support for register striding, again contributed by Stephen Warren
and mainly intended for use with MMIO as typically the registers
will be a fixed size but byte addressed.
- irqdomain support for the generic regmap irq_chip, including support
for dynamically allocate interrupt numbers.
- A function dev_get_regmap() which allows frameworks using regmap to
obtain the regmap for a device from the struct device, making life a
little simpler for them.
- Updates to regmap-irq to support more chips (contributed by Graeme
Gregory) and to use irqdomains.
- Support for devices with 24 bit register addresses.
The striding support collided with all the topic branches so the
branches look a bit messy and eventually I just gave up. There's also

vfs: be even more careful about dentry RCU name lookups
Miklos Szeredi points out that we need to also worry about memory
odering when doing the dentry name comparison asynchronously with RCU.
In particular, doing a rename can do a memcpy() of one dentry name over
another, and we want to make sure that any unlocked reader will always
see the proper terminating NUL character, so that it won't ever run off
the allocation.
Rather than having to be extra careful with the name copy or at lookup
time for each character, this resolves the issue by making sure that all
names that are inlined in the dentry always have a NUL character at the
end of the name allocation. If we do that at dentry allocation time, we
know that no future name copy will ever change that final NUL to
anything else, so there are no memory ordering issues.
So even if a concurrent rename ends up overwriting the NUL character
that terminates the original name, we always know that there is one
final NUL at the end, and there is no worry about the lockless RCU
lookup traversing the name too far.
The out-of-line allocations are never copied over, so we can just make
sure that we write the name (with terminating NULL) and do a write
barrier before we expose the name to anything else by setting it in the
dentry.

Instead, AIO did just the security_file_permission() thing (that
rw_verify_area() also does) directly.

ktest: Add MIN_CONFIG_TYPE to allow making a minum .config that has network
Add a MIN_CONFIG_TYPE that can be set to 'test' or 'boot'. The default
is 'boot' which is what make_min_config has done previously: makes a
config file that is the minimum needed to boot the target.
But when MIN_CONFIG_TYPE is set to 'test', not only must the target
boot, but it must also successfully run the TEST. This allows the
creation of a config file that is the minimum to boot and also
perform ssh to the target, or anything else a developer wants.

Fix blocking allocations called very early during bootup
During early boot, when the scheduler hasn't really been fully set up,
we really can't do blocking allocations because with certain (dubious)
configurations the "might_resched()" calls can actually result in
scheduling events.
We could just make such users always use GFP_ATOMIC, but quite often the
code that does the allocation isn't really aware of the fact that the
scheduler isn't up yet, and forcing that kind of random knowledge on the
initialization code is just annoying and not good for anybody.
And we actually have a the 'gfp_allowed_mask' exactly for this reason:
it's just that the kernel init sequence happens to set it to allow
blocking allocations much too early.
So move the 'gfp_allowed_mask' initialization from 'start_kernel()'
(which is some of the earliest init code, and runs with preemption
disabled for good reasons) into 'kernel_init()'. kernel_init() is run
in the newly created thread that will become the 'init' process, as
opposed to the early startup code that runs within the context of what
will be the first idle thread.
So by the time we reach 'kernel_init()', we know that the scheduler must
be at least limping along, because we've already scheduled from the idle
thread into the init thread.

5) Allow users to query timestamping capabilities of a card via

6) Add loadbalance mode to the teaming driver, from Jiri Pirko. Part

9) Move networking sysctl registry away from using the compatability
mode interfaces in the sysctl code. From Eric W Biederman.
10) Pavel Emelyanov added a way to save and restore TCP socket state via
TCP_REPAIR, TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE, and TCP_QUEUE_SEQ socket options as
well as a way to forcefully bind a socket to a port via the
sk->sk_reuse value SK_FORCE_REUSE. There is also a
TCP_REPAIR_OPTIONS which allows to reinstante the TCP options
enabled on the connection.
11) Several enhancements from Eric Dumazet that, in particular, can
enhance splice performance on TCP sockets significantly.
a) Reset the offset of the per-socket sendmsg page when we know
we're the only use of the page in linear_to_page().
b) Add facilities such that skb->data can be backed a page rather
than SLAB kmalloc'd memory. In particular devices which were
receiving into linear RX buffers can now end up providing paged
data.
The big result is that code like splice and GRO do not have to copy
any more.
12) Allow a pure sender to more gracefully handle ACK backlogs in TCP.
What can happen at high rates is that the sender hasn't grown his
receive buffer limits at all (he's not receiving data so really
doesn't need to), but the non-data ACKs consume receive buffer
space.
sk_add_backlog() is too aggressive in dropping frames in this case,
so relax it's requirements by using the receive buffer plus the send
buffer limit as the backlog limit instead of just the former.
Also from Eric Dumazet.
13) Add ipv6 support to L2TP, from Benjamin LaHaise, James Chapman, and
Chris Elston.
14) Implement TCP early retransmit (RFC 5827), from Yuchung Cheng.
Basically, we can start fast retransmit before hiting the dupack
threshold under certain conditions.
15) New CODEL active queue management packet scheduler, from Eric
Dumazet based upon initial work by Dave Taht.
Basically, the big feature is that packets are dropped (or ECN bits
are set) based upon how long packets live in the queue, rather than
the queue length (which is what RED uses).

Merge tag 'isci-for-3.5' into misc
isci update for 3.5
1/ Rework remote-node-context (RNC) handling for proper management of
the silicon state machine in error handling and hot-plug conditions.
Further details below, suffice to say if the RNC is mismanaged the
silicon state machines may lock up.
2/ Refactor the initialization code to be reused for suspend/resume support
3/ Miscellaneous bug fixes to address discovery issues and hardware
compatibility.
RNC rework details from Jeff Skirvin:
In the controller, devices as they appear on a SAS domain (or
direct-attached SATA devices) are represented by memory structures known
as "Remote Node Contexts" (RNCs). These structures are transferred from
main memory to the controller using a set of register commands; these
commands include setting up the context ("posting"), removing the
context ("invalidating"), and commands to control the scheduling of
commands and connections to that remote device ("suspensions" and
"resumptions"). There is a similar path to control RNC scheduling from
the protocol engine, which interprets the results of command and data
transmission and reception.
In general, the controller chooses among non-suspended RNCs to find one
that has work requiring scheduling the transmission of command and data
frames to a target. Likewise, when a target tries to return data back
to the initiator, the state of the RNC is used by the controller to
determine how to treat the incoming request. As an example, if the RNC
is in the state "TX/RX Suspended", incoming SSP connection requests from
the target will be rejected by the controller hardware. When an RNC is
"TX Suspended", it will not be selected by the controller hardware to
start outgoing command or data operations (with certain priority-based
exceptions).
As mentioned above, there are two sources for management of the RNC
states: commands from driver software, and the result of transmission
and reception conditions of commands and data signaled by the controller
hardware. As an example of the latter, if an outgoing SSP command ends
with a OPEN_REJECT(BAD_DESTINATION) status, the RNC state will
transition to the "TX Suspended" state, and this is signaled by the
controller hardware in the status to the completion of the pending
command as well as signaled in a controller hardware event. Examples of
the former are included in the patch changelogs.
Driver software is required to suspend the RNC in a "TX/RX Suspended"
condition before any outstanding commands can be terminated. Failure to
guarantee this can lead to a complete hardware hang condition. Earlier
versions of the driver software did not guarantee that an RNC was
correctly managed before I/O termination, and so operated in an unsafe
way.
Further, the driver performed unnecessary contortions to preserve the
remote device command state and so was more complicated than it needed
to be. A simplifying driver assumption is that once an I/O has entered
the error handler path without having completed in the target, the
requirement on the driver is that all use of the sas_task must end.
Beyond that, recovery of operation is dependent on libsas and other
components to reset, rediscover and reconfigure the device before normal
operation can restart. In the driver, this simplifying assumption meant
that the RNC management could be reduced to entry into the suspended
state, terminating the targeted I/O request, and resuming the RNC as
needed for device-specific management such as an SSP Abort Task or LUN
Reset Management request.
