Fix UV call into kgdb to depend only on whether KGDB is defined
and not both KGDB and KDB. This allows the power nmi command to
use the gdb remote connection if enabled. Note new action of
'kgdb' needs to be set as well to indicate user wants to wait
for gdb to be connected. If it's set to 'kdb' then an error
message is displayed if KDB is not configured.
Also note that if both KGDB and KDB are enabled, then the action
of 'kgdb' or 'kdb' has no affect on which is used. See the KGDB
documentation for further information.

Some code added to the debug_core module had KDB dependencies
that it shouldn't have. Move the KDB dependent REASON back to
the caller to remove the dependency in the debug core code.
Update the call from the UV NMI handler to conform to the new
interface.

Pull x86 cpufeature and mpx updates from Peter Anvin:
"This includes the basic infrastructure for MPX (Memory Protection
Extensions) support, but does not include MPX support itself. It is,
however, a prerequisite for KVM support for MPX, which I believe will
be pushed later this merge window by the KVM team.
This includes moving the functionality in
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() into a new function in uaccess.h so it
can be reused - this will be used by the final MPX patches.
The actual MPX functionality (map management and so on) will be pushed
in a future merge window, when ready"

- Support --guestmount (Dongsheng Yang)
- 'perf probe':
- Support showing source code, asking for variables to be collected
at probe time and other 'perf probe' operations that use DWARF
information.
This supports only binaries with debugging information at this
time, detached debuginfo (aka debuginfo packages) support should
come in later patches (Masami Hiramatsu)
- 'perf record':
- Rename --no-delay option to --no-buffering, better reflecting its
purpose and freeing up '--delay' to take the place of
'--initial-delay', so that 'record' and 'stat' are consistent
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Default the -t/--thread option to no inheritance (Adrian Hunter)
- Make per-cpu mmaps the default (Adrian Hunter)
- 'perf report':
- Improve callchain processing performance (Frederic Weisbecker)

optimizing, among other use cases, 'perf report -s srcline'
(Adrian Hunter)
- Improve callchain processing performance even more (Namhyung Kim)
- Add a perf.data file header window in the 'perf report' TUI,
associated with the 'i' hotkey, providing a counterpart to the
--header option in the stdio UI (Namhyung Kim)
- 'perf script':
- Add an option in 'perf script' to print the source line number
(Adrian Hunter)
- Add --header/--header-only options to 'script' and 'report', the
default is not tho show the header info, but as this has been the
default for some time, leave a single line explaining how to
obtain that information (Jiri Olsa)
- Add options to show comm, fork, exit and mmap PERF_RECORD_ events
(Namhyung Kim)
- Print callchains and symbols if they exist (David Ahern)
- 'perf timechart'

numeric value is provided, that run more than given duration
(Stanislav Fomichev)
- 'perf top':
- Make 'perf top -g' refer to callchains, for consistency with
other tools (David Ahern)
- 'perf trace':
- Handle old kernels where the "raw_syscalls" tracepoints were
called plain "syscalls" (David Ahern)
- Remove thread summary coloring, by Pekka Enberg.

set the mmap size, but wasn't using it when doing the actual mmap
on the events file descriptors (Jiri Olsa)

being propagated to the feature tests, leading to features being
tested in the host and then being enabled on the target (Mark
Rutland)
- Improve forked workload error reporting by sending the errno in the
signal data queueing integer field, using sigqueue and by doing the
signal setup in the evlist methods, removing open coded equivalents
in various tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Do more auto exit cleanup chores in the 'evlist' destructor, so
that the tools don't have to all do that sequence (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
- Pack 'struct perf_session_env' and 'struct trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho

memory in struct pointers to NULL, to help fixing use after free
bugs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Rename some struct DSO binary_type related members and methods, to
clarify its purpose and need for differentiation (symtab_type, ie
one is about the files .text, CFI, etc, i.e. its binary contents,
and the other is about where the symbol table came from (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)

(Namhyung Kim)
- Get rid of panic() like calls in libtraceevent (Namyung Kim)
- Start carving out symbol parsing routines (perf, just moving
routines to topic files in tools/lib/symbol/, tools that want to

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) The value choosen for the new SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option on
parisc was very poorly choosen, let's fix it while we still can.
From Eric Dumazet.
2) Our generic reciprocal divide was found to handle some edge cases
incorrectly, part of this is encoded into the BPF as deep as the JIT
engines themselves. Just use a real divide throughout for now.
From Eric Dumazet.
3) Because the initial lookup is lockless, the TCP metrics engine can
end up creating two entries for the same lookup key. Fix this by
doing a second lookup under the lock before we actually create the
new entry. From Christoph Paasch.
4) Fix scatter-gather list init in usbnet driver, from Bjørn Mork.
5) Fix unintended 32-bit truncation in cxgb4 driver's bit shifting.

On AMD family 10h we see following error messages while waking up from
S3 for all non-boot CPUs leading to a failed IBS initialization:
Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1
[Firmware Bug]: cpu 1, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu
perf: IBS APIC setup failed on cpu #1
process: Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1
CPU1 is up
...
ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3
Reason for this is that during suspend the LVT offset for the IBS
vector gets lost and needs to be reinialized while resuming.
The offset is read from the IBSCTL msr. On family 10h the offset needs
to be 1 as offset 0 is used for the MCE threshold interrupt, but
firmware assings it for IBS to 0 too. The kernel needs to reprogram
the vector. The msr is a readonly node msr, but a new value can be
written via pci config space access. The reinitialization is
implemented for family 10h in setup_ibs_ctl() which is forced during
IBS setup.
This patch fixes IBS setup after waking up from S3 by adding
resume/supend hooks for the boot cpu which does the offset
reinitialization.
Marking it as stable to let distros pick up this fix.

Waiman managed to trigger a PMI while in a emulate_vsyscall() fault,
the PMI in turn managed to trigger a fault while obtaining a stack

and killed the process dead.
Fix this by explicitly excluding interrupts from the recursive fault
logic.

On SoCs that have the calibration MSRs available, either there is no
PIT, HPET or PMTIMER to calibrate against, or the PIT/HPET/PMTIMER is
driven from the same clock as the TSC, so calibration is redundant and
just slows down the boot.
TSC rate is caculated by this formula:
<maximum core-clock to bus-clock ratio> * <maximum resolved frequency>
The ratio and the resolved frequency ID can be obtained from MSR.

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64791
When a cpu is downed on a system, the irqs on the cpu are assigned to
other cpus. It is possible, however, that when a cpu is downed there
aren't enough free vectors on the remaining cpus to account for the
vectors from the cpu that is being downed.
This results in an interesting "overflow" condition where irqs are
"assigned" to a CPU but are not handled.
For example, when downing cpus on a 1-64 logical processor system:

(last lines keep repeating. ixgbe driver is dead until module reload.)
If the downed cpu has more vectors than are free on the remaining cpus on the
system, it is possible that some vectors are "orphaned" even though they are
assigned to a cpu. In this case, since the ixgbe driver had a watchdog, the
watchdog fired and notified that something was wrong.
This patch adds a function, check_vectors(), to compare the number of vectors
on the CPU going down and compares it to the number of vectors available on
the system. If there aren't enough vectors for the CPU to go down, an
error is returned and propogated back to userspace.
v2: Do not need to look at percpu irqs
v3: Need to check affinity to prevent counting of MSIs in IOAPIC Lowest
Priority Mode
v4: Additional changes suggested by Gong Chen.

At first Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide
were not correct. (off by one in some cases)
http://www.wireshark.org/~darkjames/reciprocal-buggy.c
He could also show this with BPF:
http://www.wireshark.org/~darkjames/set-and-dump-filter-k-bug.c
The reciprocal divide in linux kernel is not generic enough,
lets remove its use in BPF, as it is not worth the pain with
current cpus.

Make disabled_cpu_apicid static and read_mostly, and fix a couple of

Add disable_cpu_apicid kernel parameter. To use this kernel parameter,
specify an initial APIC ID of the corresponding CPU you want to
disable.
This is mostly used for the kdump 2nd kernel to disable BSP to wake up
multiple CPUs without causing system reset or hang due to sending INIT
from AP to BSP.
Kdump users first figure out initial APIC ID of the BSP, CPU0 in the
1st kernel, for example from /proc/cpuinfo and then set up this kernel
parameter for the 2nd kernel using the obtained APIC ID.
However, doing this procedure at each boot time manually is awkward,
which should be automatically done by user-land service scripts, for
example, kexec-tools on fedora/RHEL distributions.
This design is more flexible than disabling BSP in kernel boot time
automatically in that in kernel boot time we have no choice but
referring to ACPI/MP table to obtain initial APIC ID for BSP, meaning
that the method is not applicable to the systems without such BIOS
tables.
One assumption behind this design is that users get initial APIC ID of
the BSP in still healthy state and so BSP is uniquely kept in
CPU0. Thus, through the kernel parameter, only one initial APIC ID can
be specified.
In a comparison with disabled_cpu_apicid, we use read_apic_id(), not
boot_cpu_physical_apicid, because on some platforms, the variable is
modified to the apicid reported as BSP through MP table and this
function is executed with the temporarily modified
boot_cpu_physical_apicid. As a result, disabled_cpu_apicid kernel
parameter doesn't work well for apicids of APs.
Fixing the wrong handling of boot_cpu_physical_apicid requires some
reviews and tests beyond some platforms and it could take some
time. The fix here is a kind of workaround to focus on the main topic
of this patch.

Having u32 and struct cpuinfo_x86 * by the same name is not very smart,
although it was ok in this case due to the limited scope of u32 c and it
being used only once in there.
Fix this.

This adds the workaround for erratum 793 as a precaution in case not
every BIOS implements it. This addresses CVE-2013-6885.
Erratum text:
[Revision Guide for AMD Family 16h Models 00h-0Fh Processors,
document 51810 Rev. 3.04 November 2013]
793 Specific Combination of Writes to Write Combined Memory Types and
Locked Instructions May Cause Core Hang
Description
Under a highly specific and detailed set of internal timing
conditions, a locked instruction may trigger a timing sequence whereby
the write to a write combined memory type is not flushed, causing the
locked instruction to stall indefinitely.
Potential Effect on System
Processor core hang.
Suggested Workaround
BIOS should set MSR
C001_1020[15] = 1b.
Fix Planned
No fix planned
[ hpa: updated description, fixed typo in MSR name ]

The help text for RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET was confusing. This has been
