      perf/x86: Fix incorrect use of do_div() in NMI warning · baf64b85
      Dave Hansen authored
      I completely botched understanding the calling conventions of
      do_div().  I assumed that do_div() returned the result instead
      of realizing that it modifies its argument and returns a
      remainder.  The side-effect from this would be bogus numbers
      for the "msecs" value in the warning messages:
      
      	INFO: NMI handler (perf_event_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 0.114 msecs
      
      Note, there was a second fix posted by Stephane Eranian for
      a separate patch which I also botched:

      rcu_read_unlock() while holding scheduler (or nested) locks when part
      of the read side critical section was preemptible.
      
      Therefore solve it by making the entire RCU read side non-preemptible.
      
      Also pull out the retry from under the non-preempt to play nice with RT.

      perf: Remove WARN_ON_ONCE() check in __perf_event_enable() for valid scenario · 06f41796
      Jiri Olsa authored
      
      
      The '!ctx->is_active' check has a valid scenario, so
      there's no need for the warning.
      
      The reason is that there's a time window between the
      'ctx->is_active' check in the perf_event_enable() function
      and the __perf_event_enable() function having:
      
        - IRQs on
        - ctx->lock unlocked
      
      where the task could be killed and 'ctx' deactivated by
      perf_event_exit_task(), ending up with the warning below.
      
      So remove the WARN_ON_ONCE() check and add comments to
      explain it all.
      
      This addresses the following warning reported by Vince Weaver:

      perf: Clone child context from parent context pmu · 734df5ab
      Jiri Olsa authored
      
      
      Currently when the child context for inherited events is
      created, it's based on the pmu object of the first event
      of the parent context.
      
      This is wrong for the following scenario:
      
        - HW context having HW and SW event
        - HW event got removed (closed)
        - SW event stays in HW context as the only event
          and its pmu is used to clone the child context
      
      The issue starts when the cpu context object is touched
      based on the pmu context object (__get_cpu_context). In
      this case the HW context will work with SW cpu context
      ending up with following WARN below.
      
      Fixing this by using parent context pmu object to clone
      from child context.
      
      Addresses the following warning reported by Vince Weaver:

      xfs: Fix the logic check for all quotas being turned off · c31ad439
      Chandra Seetharaman authored
      
      
      During the review of seperate pquota inode patches, David noticed
      that the test to detect all quotas being turned off was
      incorrect, and hence the block was not freeing all the quota
      information.
      
      The check made sense in Irix, but in Linux, quota is turned off
      one at a time, which makes the test invalid for Linux.
      
      This problem existed since XFS was ported to Linux.
      
      David suggested to fix the problem by detecting when all quotas are
      turned off by checking m_qflags.

      In watchdog_ping(), 'start' is called automatically when 'ping' function call
      is not configured.
      Softdog driver has same handling in both cases - start and ping, so 'ping' OPS
      can be removed.

      watchdog: New watchdog driver for MEN A21 watchdogs · 26c57ef1
      Johannes Thumshirn authored
      
      
      This patch adds the driver for the watchdog devices found on MEN Mikro
      Elektronik A21 VMEbus CPU Carrier Boards. It has DT-support and uses the
      watchdog framework.

      Watchdog: fix clearing of the watchdog interrupt · 6910ceb5
      Russell King authored
      
      
      The bits in BRIDGE_CAUSE are documented as RW0C - read, write 0 to
      clear.  If we read the register, mask off the watchdog bit, and
      write it back, we're actually clearing every interrupt which wasn't
      pending at the time we read the register - and that is racy.
      
      Fix this to only write ~WATCHDOG_BIT to the register, which means
      we write as zero only the watchdog bit.

      Watchdog: allow orion_wdt to be built for Dove · fa142ff5
      Russell King authored
      
      
      The watchdog infrastructure in Dove is no different from that in
      Orion5x or Kirkwood, so let's enable it for Dove.  The only things
      missing are a few register settings in Dove's bridge-regs.h.
      
      Rather than duplicating the same register bit masks for the RSTOUTn_MASK
      and BRIDGE_CAUSE registers, move the definitions into the watchdog
      driver itself.

      watchdog: delete mpcore_wdt driver · 6e63a3a2
      Viresh Kumar authored
      Interrupt request doesn't use the right API: The TWD watchdog uses a per-cpu
      interrupt (usually interrupt #30), and the GIC configuration should flag it as
      such. With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is
      request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq().
      
      Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the
      right CPU.
      
      There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to
      get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it.
      
      In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please
      revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline):
