cpuidle: Get typical recent sleep interval
The function detect_repeating_patterns was not very useful for
workloads with alternating long and short pauses, for example
virtual machines handling network requests for each other (say
a web and database server).
Instead, try to find a recent sleep interval that is somewhere
between the median and the mode sleep time, by discarding outliers
to the up side and recalculating the average and standard deviation
until that is no longer required.
This should do something sane with a sleep interval series like:
200 180 210 10000 30 1000 170 200
The current code would simply discard such a series, while the
new code will guess a typical sleep interval just shy of 200.

cpuidle: Set residency to 0 if target Cstate not enter
When cpuidle governor choose a C-state to enter for idle CPU, but it notice that
there is tasks request to be executed. So the idle CPU will not really enter
the target C-state and go to run task.
In this situation, it will use the residency of previous really entered target

. Once the prediction will be fail, the CPU will keep staying at shallow C-state
for a long time. Acutally, the CPU has change enter into deep C-state.
So when the expected residency is long enough but governor choose a shallow

When C-state is waken up prior to the adding timer, the timer will be cancelled
initiatively. When the timer is triggered and menu governor will quickly notice
prediction failure and re-evaluates deeper C-states possibility.

cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for repeat mode
The prediction for future is difficult and when the cpuidle governor prediction
fails and govenor possibly choose the shallower C-state than it should. How to
quickly notice and find the failure becomes important for power saving.
cpuidle menu governor has a method to predict the repeat pattern if there are 8
C-states residency which are continuous and the same or very close, so it will
predict the next C-states residency will keep same residency time.
There is a real case that turbostat utility (tools/power/x86/turbostat)
at kernel 3.3 or early. turbostat utility will read 10 registers one by one at
Sandybridge, so it will generate 10 IPIs to wake up idle CPUs. So cpuidle menu
governor will predict it is repeat mode and there is another IPI wake up idle
CPU soon, so it keeps idle CPU stay at C1 state even though CPU is totally
idle. However, in the turbostat, following 10 registers reading is sleep 5
seconds by default, so the idle CPU will keep at C1 for a long time though it is
idle until break event occurs.
In a idle Sandybridge system, run "./turbostat -v", we will notice that deep
C-state dangles between "70% ~ 99%". After patched the kernel, we will notice
deep C-state stays at >99.98%.
In the patch, a timer is added when menu governor detects a repeat mode and
choose a shallow C-state. The timer is set to a time out value that greater
than predicted time, and we conclude repeat mode prediction failure if timer is
triggered. When repeat mode happens as expected, the timer is not triggered
and CPU waken up from C-states and it will cancel the timer initiatively.
When repeat mode does not happen, the timer will be time out and menu governor
will quickly notice that the repeat mode prediction fails and then re-evaluates
deeper C-states possibility.
Below is another case which will clearly show the patch much benefit:
for (i = 0; i < thread_num; i++)
pthread_join(pt[i], NULL);
exit(0);
}
Get powertop V2 from git://github.com/fenrus75/powertop, build powertop.
After build the above test application, then run it.
Test plaform can be Intel Sandybridge or other recent platforms.
#./idle_predict -l 10 &
#./powertop
We will find that deep C-state will dangle between 40%~100% and much time spent
on C1 state. It is because menu governor wrongly predict that repeat mode
is kept, so it will choose the C1 shallow C-state even though it has chance to
sleep 1 second in deep C-state.
While after patched the kernel, we find that deep C-state will keep >99.6%.

/proc/<pid>/numa_maps scans vma and show mempolicy under
mmap_sem. It sometimes accesses task->mempolicy which can
be freed without mmap_sem and numa_maps can show some
garbage while scanning.
This patch tries to take reference count of task->mempolicy at reading
numa_maps before calling get_vma_policy(). By this, task->mempolicy
will not be freed until numa_maps reaches its end.
V2->v3
- updated comments to be more verbose.
- removed task_lock() in numa_maps code.
V1->V2
- access task->mempolicy only once and remember it. Becase kernel/exit.c
can overwrite it.

kbuild: Fix module signature generation
Rusty had clearly not actually tested his module signing changes that I
(trustingly) applied as commit e2a666d52b48 ("kbuild: sign the modules
at install time"). That commit had multiple bugs:
- using "${#VARIABLE}" to get the number of characters in a shell
variable may look clever, but it's locale-dependent: it returns the
number of *characters*, not bytes. And we do need bytes.
So don't use "${#..}" expansion, do the stupid "wc -c" thing instead
(where "c" stands for "bytes", not "characters", despite the letter.
- Rusty had confused "siglen" and "signerlen", and his conversion
didn't set "signerlen" at all, and incorrectly set "siglen" to the
size of the signer, not the size of the signature.
End result: the modified sign-file script did create something that
superficially *looked* like a signature, but didn't actually work at
all, and would fail the signature check. Oops.
Tssk, tssk, Rusty.
But Rusty was definitely right that this whole thing should be rewritten
in perl by somebody who has the perl-fu to do so. That is not me,
though - I'm just doing an emergency fix for the shell script.

I'm aware that is is a little late for the UAPI renames for the DVB

1) There is a major rename at 3.7 (not only uapi changes, but also
the entire media drivers were reorganized on 3.7, in order to
simplify the Kconfig logic, and easy drivers selection, especially
for hybrid devices). By confining all those renames there at 3.7
it will cause all the harm at for media developers on just one
shot. Stable backports upstream and at distros will likely
welcome it as well, as they won't need to check what changed on
3.7 and what was postponed for on 3.8.
2) The V4L2 DocBook Makefile creates a cross-reference between the
media API headers and the specs. This helps us _a_lot_ to be sure
that all API improvements are properly documented. Every time a

If the name passed to simple_xattr_remove() does not exist in the list of

This causes a BUG() since the memory was not allocated via the slab

arm64: No need to set the x0-x2 registers in start_thread()
For historical reasons, ARM used to set r0-r2 in start_thread() to the
first values on the user stack when starting a new user application. The
same logic has been inherited in AArch64. The x0 register is overridden
by the sys_execve() return value so it's always zero on success. The x1
and x2 registers are ignored by AArch64 and EABI AArch32 applications,
so we can safely remove the register setting for both native and compat
user space.
This also fixes a potential fault with the kernel accessing user space
stack directly.

arm64: Ignore memory blocks below PHYS_OFFSET
According to Documentation/arm64/booting.txt, the kernel image must be
loaded at a pre-defined offset from the start of RAM so that the kernel
can calculate PHYS_OFFSET based on this address. If the DT contains
memory blocks below this PHYS_OFFSET, report them and ignore the
corresponding memory range.

usb: fixes for v3.7-rc2
Here's the first set of fixes for v3.7-rc cycle.
DesignWare Core USB3 Driver (dwc3) got two fixes. The first one fixes a long
standing bug which would keep endpoint with BUSY flag set forever if we cancel
a transfer which has already been started by the controller. The second fix
will just switch PHYs back off when DWC3 driver is removed.
MUSB fixed a bug which would cause a Kernel Oops at least on AM3517 when
removing a device. For some reason that particular device can fall into a
situation where you have both Disconnect and Endpoint IRQs happen
simultaneously (have both bits set in IRQ_STATUS register) and, because
Disconnect Interrupt is handled before Endpoint Interrupts, we would try to
transfer data over a disconnected device, thus generating a kernel oops.
Renensas' USB DRD driver got two fixes which are a) fixing an off-by-one bug on
the pipe iterator implementation and b) fixing Interrupt Status Clear procedure
in order to properly clear a single Interrupt event without clearing (and
masking) other events we didn't handle yet.
