clocksource: Use a plain u64 instead of cycle_t

2016-12-25T10:04:12+00:00

There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is unambiguous. Conversion was done with the following coccinelle script: @rem@ @@ -typedef u64 cycle_t; @fix@ typedef cycle_t; @@ -cycle_t +u64 Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: John Stultz

ACPI/NUMA: Do not map pxm to node when NUMA is turned off

2016-12-15T10:32:32+00:00

acpi_map_pxm_to_node() unconditially maps nodes even when NUMA is turned off. So acpi_get_node() might return a node > 0, which is fatal when NUMA is disabled as the rest of the kernel assumes that only node 0 exists. Expose numa_off to the acpi code and return NUMA_NO_NODE when it's set.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "After a lot of discussion and work we have finally reachanged a basic understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts of fuse in the next development cycle. The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present since at least Linux v1.0. Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some of these fixes" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: Revert "evm: Translate user/group ids relative to s_user_ns when computing HMAC" exec: Ensure mm->user_ns contains the execed files ptrace: Don't allow accessing an undumpable mm ptrace: Capture the ptracer's creds not PT_PTRACE_CAP mm: Add a user_ns owner to mm_struct and fix ptrace permission checks

mm: remove the page size change check in tlb_remove_page

2016-12-13T02:55:07+00:00

Now that we check for page size change early in the loop, we can partially revert e9d55e157034a ("mm: change the interface for __tlb_remove_page"). This simplies the code much, by removing the need to track the last address with which we adjusted the range. We also go back to the older way of filling the mmu_gather array, ie, we add an entry and then check whether the gather batch is full.

mm: add tlb_remove_check_page_size_change to track page size change

2016-12-13T02:55:07+00:00

With commit e77b0852b551 ("mm/mmu_gather: track page size with mmu gather and force flush if page size change") we added the ability to force a tlb flush when the page size change in a mmu_gather loop. We did that by checking for a page size change every time we added a page to mmu_gather for lazy flush/remove. We can improve that by moving the page size change check early and not doing it every time we add a page. This also helps us to do tlb flush when invalidating a range covering dax mapping. Wrt dax mapping we don't have a backing struct page and hence we don't call tlb_remove_page, which earlier forced the tlb flush on page size change. Moving the page size change check earlier means we will do the same even for dax mapping. We also avoid doing this check on architecture other than powerpc. In a later patch we will remove page size check from tlb_remove_page().
