      The 'jump label' self-test is in reality testing static keys - rename things
      accordingly.
      
      Also prettify the code in various places while at it.

      locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key interface · 11276d53
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      There are various problems and short-comings with the current
      static_key interface:
      
       - static_key_{true,false}() read like a branch depending on the key
         value, instead of the actual likely/unlikely branch depending on
         init value.
      
       - static_key_{true,false}() are, as stated above, tied to the
         static_key init values STATIC_KEY_INIT_{TRUE,FALSE}.
      
       - we're limited to the 2 (out of 4) possible options that compile to
         a default NOP because that's what our arch_static_branch() assembly
         emits.
      
      So provide a new static_key interface:
      
        DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
        DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);
      
      Which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
      value.
      
      Then allow:
      
         static_branch_likely()
         static_branch_unlikely()
      
      to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
      case.
      
      This means adding a second arch_static_branch_jump() assembly helper
      which emits a JMP per default.
      
      In order to determine the right instruction for the right state,
      encode the branch type in the LSB of jump_entry::key.
      
      This is the final step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
      a stream of avoidable bugs such as:
      
        a833581e
      
       ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")
      
      ... but it also allows new static key combinations that will give us
      performance enhancements in the subsequent patches.

      locking/static_keys: Rework update logic · 706249c2
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      
      
      Instead of spreading the branch_default logic all over the place,
      concentrate it into the one jump_label_type() function.
      
      This does mean we need to actually increment/decrement the enabled
      count _before_ calling the update path, otherwise jump_label_type()
      will not see the right state.

      Since we've already stepped away from ENABLE is a JMP and DISABLE is a

      rename it to make it all clearer.
      
      This way we don't mix multiple levels of logic attributes, but have a

      locking/pvqspinlock: Only kick CPU at unlock time · 75d22702
      Waiman Long authored
      
      
      For an over-committed guest with more vCPUs than physical CPUs
      available, it is possible that a vCPU may be kicked twice before
      getting the lock - once before it becomes queue head and once again
      before it gets the lock. All these CPU kicking and halting (VMEXIT)
      can be expensive and slow down system performance.
      
      This patch adds a new vCPU state (vcpu_hashed) which enables the code
      to delay CPU kicking until at unlock time. Once this state is set,
      the new lock holder will set _Q_SLOW_VAL and fill in the hash table
      on behalf of the halted queue head vCPU. The original vcpu_halted
      state will be used by pv_wait_node() only to differentiate other
      queue nodes from the qeue head.

      locking/qrwlock: Reduce reader/writer to reader lock transfer latency · ffffeaf3
      Waiman Long authored
      
      
      Currently, a reader will check first to make sure that the writer mode
      byte is cleared before incrementing the reader count. That waiting is
      not really necessary. It increases the latency in the reader/writer
      to reader transition and reduces readers performance.
      
      This patch eliminates that waiting. It also has the side effect
      of reducing the chance of writer lock stealing and improving the
      fairness of the lock. Using a locking microbenchmark, a 10-threads 5M
      locking loop of mostly readers (RW ratio = 10,000:1) has the following
      performance numbers in a Haswell-EX box:

      locking/pvqspinlock: Order pv_unhash() after cmpxchg() on unlock slowpath · 3b3fdf10
      Will Deacon authored
      
      
      When we unlock in __pv_queued_spin_unlock(), a failed cmpxchg() on the lock
      value indicates that we need to take the slow-path and unhash the
      corresponding node blocked on the lock.
      
      Since a failed cmpxchg() does not provide any memory-ordering guarantees,
      it is possible that the node data could be read before the cmpxchg() on
      weakly-ordered architectures and therefore return a stale value, leading
      to hash corruption and/or a BUG().
      
      This patch adds an smb_rmb() following the failed cmpxchg operation, so
      that the unhashing is ordered after the lock has been checked.

      Will Deacon authored
      
      
      A failed cmpxchg does not provide any memory ordering guarantees, a
      property that is used to optimise the cmpxchg implementations on Alpha,
      PowerPC and arm64.
      
      This patch updates atomic_ops.txt and memory-barriers.txt to reflect
      this.

      i915: temporary fix for DP MST docking station NULL pointer dereference · 27667f47
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Ted Ts'o reports that his Lenovo T540p ThinkPad crashes at boot if
      attached to the docking station.  This is a regression that he was able
      to bisect to commit 8c7b5ccb
      
      : "drm/i915: Use atomic helpers for
      computing changed flags:"
      
      The reason seems to be the new call to drm_atomic_helper_check_modeset()
      added to intel_modeset_compute_config(), which in turn calls
      update_connector_routing(), and somehow ends up picking a NULL crtc for
      the connector state, causing the subsequent drm_crtc_index() to OOPS.
      
      Daniel Vetter says that the fundamental issue seems to be confusion in
      the encoder selection, and this isn't the right fix, but while he chases
      down the proper fix, this at least avoids the NULL pointer dereference
      and makes Ted's docking station work again.

      These changes were already validated as part of FSL SDK.
      Patch 2 fixes occasional wake-on magic packet failures during
      traffic, probably due to incorrect traffic stop/ device halt
      sequence and incorrect usage of txlock.

      Claudiu Manoil authored
      
      
      The wol_en flag is 0 by default anyway, and we have the
      following inconsistency: a MAGIC packet wol capable eth
      interface is registered as a wake-up source but unable
      to wake-up the system as wol_en is 0 (wake-on flag set to 'd').
      Calling set_wakeup_enable() at netdev open is just redundant
      because wol_en is 0 by default.
      Let only ethtool call set_wakeup_enable() for now.
      
      The bflock is obviously obsoleted, its utility has been corroded
      over time.  The bitfield flags used today in gianfar are accessed
      only on the init/ config path, with no real possibility of
      concurrency - nothing that would justify smth. like bflock.
