====================
HFSC patches, part 1
It's revised version of part of the patches I submitted really, really long
time ago (back then I asked Patrick to ignore them as I found some issues
shortly after submitting).
Anyway this is the first set with very simple fixes/changes though some of them
relatively subtle (I tried to do very exhaustive commit messages explaining what
and why with those).
The patches are against net-next tree.
The second set will be heavier - or rather with more complex explanations, among those I have:
- a fix to subtle issue introduced in
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.commits.2-4/8281
along with simplifying related stuff
- update times to 96 bits (which allows to "just" use 32 bit shifts and
improves curve definition accuracy at more extreme low/high speeds)
- add curve "merging" instead of just selecting in convex case (computations
mirror those from concave intersection)
But these are eventually for later.

cl->cl_vt alone is relative only to the current backlog period, while
the curve operates on cumulative virtual time. This patch adds missing

When a class is going passive, it should update its cl_vt first
to be consistent with the last dequeue operation.
Otherwise its cl_vt will be one packet behind and parent's cvtmax might
not be updated as well.
One possible side effect is if some class goes passive and subsequently
goes active /without/ its parent going passive - with cl_vt lagging one
packet behind - comparison made in init_vf() will be affected (same
period).

Realtime scheduling implemented in HFSC uses head of the queue to make
the decision about which packet to schedule next. But in case of any
head drop, the deadline calculated for the previous head is not
necessarily correct for the next head (unless both packets have the same
length).
Thanks to peek() function used during dequeue - which internally is a
dequeue operation - hfsc is almost safe from this issue, as peek()
dequeues and isolates the head storing it temporarily until the real
dequeue happens.
But there is one exception: if after the class activation a drop happens
before the first dequeue operation, there's never a chance to do the
peek().
Adding peek() call in enqueue - if this is the first packet in a new
backlog period AND the scheduler has realtime curve defined - fixes that
one corner case. The 1st hfsc_dequeue() will use that peeked packet,
similarly as every subsequent hfsc_dequeue() call uses packet peeked by
the previous call.

This can be reproduced readily by running a full dynticks guest(since hrtimer
in guest is heavily used) w/ lapic_timer_advance disabled.
If fail to program hardware preemption timer, we will fallback to hrtimer based
method, however, a previous programmed preemption timer miss to cancel in this
scenario which results in one hardware preemption timer and one hrtimer emulated
tsc deadline timer run simultaneously. So sometimes the target guest deadline
tsc is earlier than guest tsc, which leads to the computation in vmx_set_hv_timer
can underflow and cause delta_tsc to be set a huge value, then host soft lockup
as above.
This patch fix it by cancelling the previous programmed preemption timer if there
is once we failed to program the new preemption timer and fallback to hrtimer
based method.

If the TSC deadline timer is programmed really close to the deadline or
even in the past, the computation in vmx_set_hv_timer can underflow and
cause delta_tsc to be set to a huge value. This generally results
in vmx_set_hv_timer returning -ERANGE, but we can fix it by limiting
delta_tsc to be positive or zero.

Len Brown noticed something was amiss in our INTEL_FAM6_*
definitions. It seems like model 0x1F was a Nehalem part,
marketed as "Intel Core i7 and i5 Processors" (according to the
SDM). But, although it was a Nehalem 0x1F had some uncore events
which were shared with Westmere.
Len also mentioned he thought it was called "Havendale", which
Wikipedia says was graphics-oriented and canceled:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nehalem_(microarchitecture)
So either way, it's probably not imporant what we call it, but
call it Nehalem to be accurate, and add a "G" since it seems
graphics-related. If it were canceled that would be a good reason
why it's so sparsely and inconsistently referred to in the code.

Currently, an Intel TH (pci) device will be always active, because the

To address this, this patch adds runtime pm support to the 'intel_th'

in use while a capture is active; the 'source' type device (STH) relies
on its child stm class device for runtime pm tracking.

This patch applies the following runtime pm policy to stm class devices,
which their parents can rely on for their power management tracking:
* device is in use during character device writes,
* delayed autosuspend is used to keep it active between adjacent
writes,
* device is in use while mmio regions are mapped,
* device is is use while any stm_source devices are linked to it.

Fix boot crash that triggers if this driver is built into a kernel and

AMD northbridges users call amd_cache_northbridges() and it returns
a negative value to signal that we weren't able to cache/detect any

At least, it should do so as all its callers expect it to do so. But it

Fix it to return -ENODEV if there are no NBs cached as otherwise, amd_nb

- m_start() in fs/namespace.c expects that ns->event is incremented each
time a mount added or removed from ns->list.
- umount_tree() removes items from the list but does not increment event
counter, expecting that it's done before the function is called.
- There are some codepaths that call umount_tree() without updating
"event" counter. e.g. from __detach_mounts().
- When this happens m_start may reuse a cached mount structure that no
longer belongs to ns->list (i.e. use after free which usually leads
to infinite loop).
This change fixes the above problem by incrementing global event counter
before invoking umount_tree().

Logan Gunthorpe reports that hibernation stopped working reliably for
him after commit ab76f7b4ab (x86/mm: Set NX on gap between __ex_table
and rodata).
That turns out to be a consequence of a long-standing issue with the
64-bit image restoration code on x86, which is that the temporary
page tables set up by it to avoid page tables corruption when the
last bits of the image kernel's memory contents are copied into
their original page frames re-use the boot kernel's text mapping,
but that mapping may very well get corrupted just like any other
part of the page tables. Of course, if that happens, the final
jump to the image kernel's entry point will go to nowhere.
The exact reason why commit ab76f7b4ab matters here is that it
sometimes causes a PMD of a large page to be split into PTEs
that are allocated dynamically and get corrupted during image
restoration as described above.
To fix that issue note that the code copying the last bits of the
image kernel's memory contents to the page frames occupied by them
previoulsy doesn't use the kernel text mapping, because it runs from
a special page covered by the identity mapping set up for that code
from scratch. Hence, the kernel text mapping is only needed before
that code starts to run and then it will only be used just for the
final jump to the image kernel's entry point.
Accordingly, the temporary page tables set up in swsusp_arch_resume()
on x86-64 need to contain the kernel text mapping too. That mapping
is only going to be used for the final jump to the image kernel, so
it only needs to cover the image kernel's entry point, because the
first thing the image kernel does after getting control back is to
switch over to its own original page tables. Moreover, the virtual
address of the image kernel's entry point in that mapping has to be
the same as the one mapped by the image kernel's page tables.
With that in mind, modify the x86-64's arch_hibernation_header_save()
and arch_hibernation_header_restore() routines to pass the physical
address of the image kernel's entry point (in addition to its virtual
address) to the boot kernel (a small piece of assembly code involved
in passing the entry point's virtual address to the image kernel is
not necessary any more after that, so drop it). Update RESTORE_MAGIC
too to reflect the image header format change.
Next, in set_up_temporary_mappings(), use the physical and virtual
addresses of the image kernel's entry point passed in the image
header to set up a minimum kernel text mapping (using memory pages
that won't be overwritten by the image kernel's memory contents) that
will map those addresses to each other as appropriate.
This makes the concern about the possible corruption of the original
boot kernel text mapping go away and if the the minimum kernel text
mapping used for the final jump marks the image kernel's entry point
memory as executable, the jump to it is guaraneed to succeed.
