Enabling OF selftest to run without machine's devicetree
If there is no devicetree present, this patch adds the selftest
data as a live devicetree. It also removes the same after the
testcase execution is complete.

of: Allow mem_reserve of memory with a base address of zero
__reserved_mem_reserve_reg() won't reserve memory if the base address
is zero. This change removes the check for a base address of zero and
allows it to be reserved.
Allowing the first 4K of memory to be reserved will help solve a
problem on some ARM systems where the the first 16K of memory is
unused and becomes allocable memory. This will prevent this memory
from being used for DMA by drivers like the USB OHCI driver which
consider a physical address of zero to be illegal.

tcp: fix ssthresh and undo for consecutive short FRTO episodes
Fix TCP FRTO logic so that it always notices when snd_una advances,
indicating that any RTO after that point will be a new and distinct
loss episode.
Previously there was a very specific sequence that could cause FRTO to
fail to notice a new loss episode had started:
(1) RTO timer fires, enter FRTO and retransmit packet 1 in write queue
(2) receiver ACKs packet 1
(3) FRTO sends 2 more packets
(4) RTO timer fires again (should start a new loss episode)
The problem was in step (3) above, where tcp_process_loss() returned
early (in the spot marked "Step 2.b"), so that it never got to the
logic to clear icsk_retransmits. Thus icsk_retransmits stayed
non-zero. Thus in step (4) tcp_enter_loss() would see the non-zero
icsk_retransmits, decide that this RTO is not a new episode, and
decide not to cut ssthresh and remember the current cwnd and ssthresh
for undo.
There were two main consequences to the bug that we have
observed. First, ssthresh was not decreased in step (4). Second, when
there was a series of such FRTO (1-4) sequences that happened to be
followed by an FRTO undo, we would restore the cwnd and ssthresh from
before the entire series started (instead of the cwnd and ssthresh
from before the most recent RTO). This could result in cwnd and
ssthresh being restored to values much bigger than the proper values.

tcp: don't allow syn packets without timestamps to pass tcp_tw_recycle logic
tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host
ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to
hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for
the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a
per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp
in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during
last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data
packets will be accepted by the new connection.
During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps
where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the
time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN
will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a
connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we
cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if
no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch
closes this loophole.
Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more
usable but only adds another safety check:
Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or
in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to
connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes
and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts
behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks.
tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled.
In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.

As of 4fddbf5d78 ("sit: strictly restrict incoming traffic to tunnel link device"),
when looking up a tunnel, tunnel's underlying interface (t->parms.link)
is verified to match incoming traffic's ingress device.
However the comparison was incorrectly based on skb->dev->iflink.
Instead, dev->ifindex should be used, which correctly represents the
interface from which the IP stack hands the ipip6 packets.
This allows setting up sit tunnels bound to vlan interfaces (otherwise
incoming ipip6 traffic on the vlan interface was dropped due to
ipip6_tunnel_lookup match failure).

OF_RECONFIG notifiers see the most significant change here so that

Automatic console selection from DT. Console drivers can now use
of_console_check() to see if the device node is specified as a console
device. If so then it gets added as a preferred console. UART
devices get this support automatically when uart_add_one_port() is

Merge branch 'xen-netback-synchronization'
Wei Liu says:
====================
xen-netback: synchronisation between core driver and netback
The zero-copy netback has far more interactions with core network driver than
the old copying backend. One significant thing is that netback now relies on
a callback from core driver to correctly release resources.
However correct synchronisation between core driver and netback is missing.
Currently netback relies on a loop to wait for core driver to release
resources. This is proven not enough and erroneous recently, partly due to code
structure, partly due to missing synchronisation. Short-live domains like
OpenMirage unikernels can easily trigger race in backend, rendering backend
unresponsive.
This patch series aims to slove this issue by introducing proper
synchronisation between core driver and netback.
Chagges in v4:
* avoid using wait queue
* remove dedicated loop for netif_napi_del
* remove unnecessary check on callback

design of this functionality must use generic infrastructure, i.e.
irq domains, which provide all the mechanisms to dynamically map linux
interrupt numbers to physical interrupts.
Jiang picked up the idea and did a great job of consolidating the
existing interfaces to manage the x86 (IOAPIC) interrupt system by
utilizing irq domains.
The testing in tip, Linux-next and inside of Intel on various machines
did not unearth any oddities until Borislav exposed it to one of his
oddball machines. The issue was resolved quickly, but unfortunately
the fix fell through the cracks and did not hit the tip tree before
Ingo sent the pull request. Not entirely Ingos fault, I also assumed
that the fix was already merged when Ingo asked me whether he could
send it.
Nevertheless this work has a proper design, has undergone several
rounds of review and the final fallout after applying it to tip and
integrating it into Linux-next has been more than moderate. It's the
ground work not only for IOAPIC hotplug, it will also allow us to move
the lowlevel vector allocation into the irqdomain hierarchy, which
will benefit other architectures as well. Patches are posted already,
but they are on hold for two weeks, see below.
I really appreciate the competence and responsiveness Jiang has shown
in course of this endavour. So I'm sure that any fallout of this will
be addressed in a timely manner.
FYI, I'm vanishing for 2 weeks into my annual kids summer camp kitchen
duty^Wvacation, while you folks are drooling at KS/LinuxCon :) But HPA
will have a look at the hopefully zero fallout until I'm back"

powerpc/mm: Use read barrier when creating real_pte
On ppc64 we support 4K hash pte with 64K page size. That requires
us to track the hash pte slot information on a per 4k basis. We do that
by storing the slot details in the second half of pte page. The pte bit
_PAGE_COMBO is used to indicate whether the second half need to be
looked while building real_pte. We need to use read memory barrier while
doing that so that load of hidx is not reordered w.r.t _PAGE_COMBO
check. On the store side we already do a lwsync in __hash_page_4K
As per ISA, for 4k base page size we compare 14..65 bits of VA specified
with the entry_VA in tlb. That implies we need to make sure we do a
tlbie with all the possible 4k va we used to access the 16MB hugepage.
With 64k base page size we compare 14..57 bits of VA. Hence we cannot
ignore the lower 24 bits of va while tlbie .We also cannot tlb
invalidate a 16MB entry with just one tlbie instruction because
we don't track which va was used to instantiate the tlb entry.
If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect
or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash
table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages
in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault for
these pages.
We use _PAGE_COMBO bit along with _PAGE_HASHPTE to indicate whether a
pte is backed by 4K hash pte. If we find _PAGE_COMBO not set on the pte,
that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in
the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries.
Use _PAGE_COMBO to determine the page size with which we should
invalidate the hash table entries on unmap.
powerpc/thp: Invalidate old 64K based hash page mapping before insert of 4k pte
If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect
or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash
table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages
in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault

that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in
the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries.
powerpc/thp: Don't recompute vsid and ssize in loop on invalidate
The segment identifier and segment size will remain the same in
the loop, So we can compute it outside. We also change the
hugepage_invalidate interface so that we can use it the later patch
powerpc/thp: Add write barrier after updating the valid bit
With hugepages, we store the hpte valid information in the pte page
whose address is stored in the second half of the PMD. Use a
write barrier to make sure clearing pmd busy bit and updating
hpte valid info are ordered properly.
powerpc: reorder per-cpu NUMA information's initialization
There is an issue currently where NUMA information is used on powerpc
(and possibly ia64) before it has been read from the device-tree, which
leads to large slab consumption with CONFIG_SLUB and memoryless nodes.
NUMA powerpc non-boot CPU's cpu_to_node/cpu_to_mem is only accurate
after start_secondary(), similar to ia64, which is invoked via
smp_init().
Commit 6ee0578b4daae ("workqueue: mark init_workqueues() as
early_initcall()") made init_workqueues() be invoked via
do_pre_smp_initcalls(), which is obviously before the secondary
processors are online.
Additionally, the following commits changed init_workqueues() to use
cpu_to_node to determine the node to use for kthread_create_on_node:
bce903809ab3f ("workqueue: add wq_numa_tbl_len and
wq_numa_possible_cpumask[]") f3f90ad469342 ("workqueue: determine NUMA node of workers accourding to
the allowed cpumask")
Therefore, when init_workqueues() runs, it sees all CPUs as being on
Node 0. On LPARs or KVM guests where Node 0 is memoryless, this leads to
a high number of slab deactivations
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg67489.html).
Fix this by initializing the powerpc-specific CPU<->node/local memory
node mapping as early as possible, which on powerpc is
do_init_bootmem(). Currently that function initializes the mapping for
the boot CPU, but we extend it to setup the mapping for all possible
CPUs. Then, in smp_prepare_cpus(), we can correspondingly set the
per-cpu values for all possible CPUs. That ensures that before the
early_initcalls run (and really as early as possible), the per-cpu NUMA
mapping is accurate.
While testing memoryless nodes on PowerKVM guests with a fix to the
workqueue logic to use cpu_to_mem() instead of cpu_to_node(), with a
guest topology of:

powerpc/powernv: Fix IOMMU group lost
When we take full hotplug to recover from EEH errors, PCI buses
could be involved. For the case, the child devices of involved
PCI buses can't be attached to IOMMU group properly, which is
caused by commit 3f28c5a ("powerpc/powernv: Reduce multi-hit of
iommu_add_device()").
When adding the PCI devices of the newly created PCI buses to
the system, the IOMMU group is expected to be added in (C).
(A) fails to bind the IOMMU group because bus->is_added is
false. (B) fails because the device doesn't have binding IOMMU
table yet. bus->is_added is set to true at end of (C) and
pdev->is_added is set to true at (D).
If the parent PCI bus isn't involved in hotplug, the IOMMU
group is expected to be bound in (B). (A) should fail as the
sysfs entries aren't populated.
The patch fixes the issue by reverting commit 3f28c5a and remove
WARN_ON() in iommu_add_device() to allow calling the function
even the specified device already has associated IOMMU group.
