This patch kill instructs the DMAC to immediately terminate execution of a thread. and then clear the interrupt status, at last, stop generating interrupts for DMA_SEV. to guarantee the next dma start is clean. otherwise, one interrupt maybe leave to next start and make some mistake. we can reporduce the problem as follows: DMASEV: modify the event-interrupt resource, and if the INTEN sets function as interrupt, the DMAC will set irq<event_num> HIGH to generate interrupt. write INTCLR to clear interrupt.

2019-04-24dmaengine: axi-dmac: Don't check the number of frames for alignmentAlexandru Ardelean
In 2D transfers (for the AXI DMAC), the number of frames (numf) represents Y_LENGTH, and the length of a frame is X_LENGTH. 2D transfers are useful for video transfers where screen resolutions ( X * Y ) are typically aligned for X, but not for Y. There is no requirement for Y_LENGTH to be aligned to the bus-width (or anything), and this is also true for AXI DMAC. Checking the Y_LENGTH for alignment causes false errors when initiating DMA transfers. This change fixes this by checking only that the Y_LENGTH is non-zero.

2019-03-25dmaengine: pl08x: be fair when re-assigning physical channelJean-Nicolas Graux
Current way we find a waiting virtual channel for the next transfer at the time one physical channel becomes free is not really fair. More in details, in case there is more than one channel waiting at a time, by just going through the arrays of memcpy and slave channels and stopping as soon as state match waiting state, channels with high indexes can be penalized. Whenever dma engine is substantially overloaded so that we constantly get several channels waiting, channels with highest indexes might not be served for a substantial time which in the worse case, might hang task that wait for dma transfer to complete. This patch makes physical channel re-assignment more fair by storing time in jiffies when a channel is put in waiting state. Whenever a physical channel has to be re-assigned, this time is used to select channel that is waiting for the longest time.

If the driver is active till late suspend, where runtime PM cannot run, force suspend is essential in such case to put the device in low power state. Thus pm_runtime_force_suspend and pm_runtime_force_resume are used as system sleep callbacks during system wide PM transitions. Late system sleep callbacks are used to ensure, for instance, that the sound core has suspended any on-going activity, including stopping the ADMA if active, before we attempt to suspend the ADMA.

2019-03-25dmaengine: tegra210-adma: use devm_clk_*() helpersSameer Pujar
adma driver is using pm_clk_*() interface for managing clock resources. With this it is observed that clocks remain ON always. This happens on Tegra devices which use BPMP co-processor to manage clock resources, where clocks are enabled during prepare phase. This is necessary because clocks to BPMP are always blocking. When pm_clk_*() interface is used on such Tegra devices, clock prepare count is not balanced till remove call happens for the driver and hence clocks are seen ON always. Thus this patch replaces pm_clk_*() with devm_clk_*() framework.

2019-03-21dmaengine: idma64: Use actual device for DMA transfersAndy Shevchenko
Intel IOMMU, when enabled, tries to find the domain of the device, assuming it's a PCI one, during DMA operations, such as mapping or unmapping. Since we are splitting the actual PCI device to couple of children via MFD framework (see drivers/mfd/intel-lpss.c for details), the DMA device appears to be a platform one, and thus not an actual one that performs DMA. In a such situation IOMMU can't find or allocate a proper domain for its operations. As a result, all DMA operations are failed. In order to fix this, supply parent of the platform device to the DMA engine framework and fix filter functions accordingly. We may rely on the fact that parent is a real PCI device, because no other configuration is present in the wild.

2019-03-17kbuild: Make NOSTDINC_FLAGS a simply expanded variableDouglas Anderson
During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice. Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be recursively expanded. On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build. Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really old) commit e8f5bdb02ce0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering"). It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would have just removed the ":".

2019-03-17coccinelle: semantic code search for missing put_device()Wen Yang
The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device structure, we should release that reference. The implementation of this semantic code search is: In a function, for a local variable returned by calling of_find_device_by_node(), a, if it is released by a function such as put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use, it is considered that there is no reference leak; b, if it is passed back to the caller via dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the reference will be released in other functions, and the current function also considers that there is no reference leak; c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the corresponding error message. By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks, such as: commit 11907e9d3533 ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in fsl_asoc_card_probe") commit a12085d13997 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak") commit 11493f26856a ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak") There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code. Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to further check the reference leak.

Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd. Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams: "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to the core-mm as "System RAM". Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida
