Commit 8eb23b9f35 ("sched: Debug nested sleeps") added code to report
on nested sleep conditions, which we generally want to avoid because the
inner sleeping operation can re-set the thread state to TASK_RUNNING,
but that will then cause the outer sleep loop not actually sleep when it
calls schedule.
However, that's actually valid traditional behavior, with the inner
sleep being some fairly rare case (like taking a sleeping lock that
normally doesn't actually need to sleep).
And the debug code would actually change the state of the task to
TASK_RUNNING internally, which makes that kind of traditional and
working code not work at all, because now the nested sleep doesn't just
sometimes cause the outer one to not block, but will cause it to happen
every time.
In particular, it will cause the cardbus kernel daemon (pccardd) to
basically busy-loop doing scheduling, converting a laptop into a heater,
as reported by Bruno Prémont. But there may be other legacy uses of
that nested sleep model in other drivers that are also likely to never
get converted to the new model.
This fixes both cases:
- don't set TASK_RUNNING when the nested condition happens (note: even
if WARN_ONCE() only _warns_ once, the return value isn't whether the
warning happened, but whether the condition for the warning was true.
So despite the warning only happening once, the "if (WARN_ON(..))"
would trigger for every nested sleep.
- in the cases where we knowingly disable the warning by using
"sched_annotate_sleep()", don't change the task state (that is used
for all core scheduling decisions), instead use '->task_state_change'
that is used for the debugging decision itself.
(Credit for the second part of the fix goes to Oleg Nesterov: "Can't we
avoid this subtle change in behaviour DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP adds?" with the
suggested change to use 'task_state_change' as part of the test)

Some devices are not fast enough to differentiate between a fast-moving
contact and a new contact. This problem cannot be fully resolved because
information is truly missing, but it is possible to safe-guard against
obvious mistakes by restricting movement with a maximum displacement.
The new problem formulation for dmax > 0 cannot benefit from the speedup
for positive definite matrices, but since the convergence is faster, the
result is about the same. For a handful of contacts, the latency difference
is truly negligible.

Currently the USB stack assumes that all host controller drivers are
capable of receiving wakeup requests from downstream devices.
However, this isn't true for the isp1760-hcd driver, which means that
it isn't safe to do a runtime suspend of any device attached to a
root-hub port if the device requires wakeup.
This patch adds a "cant_recv_wakeups" flag to the usb_hcd structure
and sets the flag in isp1760-hcd. The core is modified to prevent a
direct child of the root hub from being put into runtime suspend with
wakeup enabled if the flag is set.

The usbfs API has a peculiar hole: Users are not allowed to reap their

After the Exynos Power Management Unit (PMU) driver was converted
to the platform device driver in commit 14fc8b93d4
("ARM: EXYNOS: Add platform driver support for Exynos PMU") and
then PMU device nodes added to Exynos4 DTs in commit
7b9613aca4 ("ARM: dts: add PMU syscon node for exynos4")
the mipi video phy driver started failing probing, due to overlapping
memory mapped register region resources.
Now all the Exynos peripheral devices which have registers in the PMU
region are supposed to use the regmap provided by the syscon driver.
So support for regmap is added in this patch, this unfortunately
creates yet another indirection into that supposedly trivial driver.
The additional mutex is required because single register is used by
PHY pairs (they share bit in a register). An improvement here could
be to allow a PHY instance be created with a driver custom mutex,
which would then be common for each PHY pair. This would eliminate
one of 3 mutexes which need to be taken in the phy_power_on/
phy_power_off code path. However, I tried to keep this bug fix patch
possibly simple.
This change is needed to make MIPI DSI displays and MIPI CSI-2
camera sensors working again on Exynos4 boards.

This patch adds a new class in devfreq, devfreq_event, which provides
raw data (e.g., memory bus utilization, GPU utilization) for devfreq
governors.
- devfreq_event device : Provides raw data for a governor of a devfreq device
- devfreq device : Monitors device state and changes frequency/voltage
of the device using the raw data from its
devfreq_event device.
A devfreq device dertermines performance states (normally the frequency
and the voltage vlues) based on the results its designtated devfreq governor:
e.g., ondemand, performance, powersave.
In order to give such results required by a devfreq device, the devfreq
governor requires data that indicates the performance requirement given
to the devfreq device. The conventional (previous) implementatino of
devfreq subsystem requires a devfreq device driver to implement its own
mechanism to acquire performance requirement for its governor. However,
there had been issues with such requirements:
1. Although performance requirement of such devices is usually acquired
from common devices (PMU/PPMU), we do not have any abstract structure to
represent them properly.
2. Such performance requirement devices (PMU/PPMU) are actual hardware
pieces that may be represented by Device Tree directly while devfreq device
itself is a virtual entity that are not considered to be represented by
Device Tree according to Device Tree folks.
In order to address such issues, a devferq_event device (represented by
this patch) provides a template for device drivers representing
performance monitoring unit, which gives the basic or raw data for
preformance requirement, which in turn, is required by devfreq governors.
The following description explains the feature of two kind of devfreq class:
- devfreq class (existing)
: devfreq consumer device use raw data from devfreq_event device for
determining proper current system state and change voltage/frequency
dynamically using various governors.
- devfreq_event class (new)
: Provide measured raw data to devfreq device for governor

The following patch adds coupled cpuidle support for Exynos4210 to
an existing cpuidle-exynos driver. As a result it enables AFTR mode

CPU1 first.
The patch is heavily based on earlier cpuidle-exynos4210 driver from
Daniel Lezcano:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-samsung-soc/msg28134.html
Changes from Daniel's code include:
- porting code to current kernels
- fixing it to work on my setup (by using S5P_INFORM register
instead of S5P_VA_SYSRAM one on Revison 1.1 and retrying poking
CPU1 out of the BOOT ROM if necessary)
- fixing rare lockup caused by waiting for CPU1 to get stuck in
the BOOT ROM (CPU hotplug code in arch/arm/mach-exynos/platsmp.c
doesn't require this and works fine)
- moving Exynos specific code to arch/arm/mach-exynos/pm.c
- using cpu_boot_reg_base() helper instead of BOOT_VECTOR macro
- using exynos_cpu_*() helpers instead of accessing registers
directly
- using arch_send_wakeup_ipi_mask() instead of dsb_sev()
(this matches CPU hotplug code in arch/arm/mach-exynos/platsmp.c)
- integrating separate exynos4210-cpuidle driver into existing
exynos-cpuidle one

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d45 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

The pedometer needs to filter out false steps that might be generated by
tapping the foot, sitting, etc. To do that it computes the number of
steps that occur in a given time and decides the user is moving only
if this value is over a threshold. E.g.: the user starts moving only
if he takes 4 steps in 3 seconds. This filter is applied only when
the user starts moving.

LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that
cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch
ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion
control algorithms that were designed and tuned years ago with
receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead
politely ACKing every other packet.
This patch series fixes Reno and CUBIC to handle stretch ACKs.
This patch prepares for the upcoming stretch ACK bug fix patches. It
adds an "acked" parameter to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to allow for future
fixes to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to correctly handle stretch ACKs, and
changes all congestion control algorithms to pass in 1 for the ACKed
count. It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet
ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be
processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode.
In future patches we will fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch
ACKs, and fix Reno and CUBIC handling of stretch ACKs in slow start
and additive increase mode.
