2018-02-07ACPI: SPCR: Make SPCR available to x86Prarit Bhargava1-3/+6
SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup an early console. General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86), updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(), and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be more descriptive. On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is not 2 so the table version check must be a warning. On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console and console are enabled. On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by by default. Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing the early console and console separately.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Add a console_msg_format command line option: The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log level>[timestamp] text" format. This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs at hands. - Reduce the risk of softlockup: Pass the console owner in a busy loop. This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep. On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the waiter. The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations. Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example, when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too much to flush. There is increasing number of people having problems with printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising direction. - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk(): This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output. This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective. - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier: It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function descriptors and show the real function address. It is done transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now. Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in a special elf section and could be easily detected. - Remove printk_symbol() API: It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API. - Remove redundant memsets: Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg command line option. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk: (27 commits) printk: drop redundant devkmsg_log_str memsets printk: Never set console_may_schedule in console_trylock() printk: Hide console waiter logic into helpers printk: Add console owner and waiter logic to load balance console writes kallsyms: remove print_symbol() function checkpatch: add pF/pf deprecation warning symbol lookup: introduce dereference_symbol_descriptor() parisc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference powerpc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference ia64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference sections: split dereference_function_descriptor() openrisc: Fix conflicting types for _exext and _stext lib: do not use print_symbol() irq debug: do not use print_symbol() sysfs: do not use print_symbol() drivers: do not use print_symbol() x86: do not use print_symbol() unicore32: do not use print_symbol() sh: do not use print_symbol() mn10300: do not use print_symbol() ...

2018-01-31x86/paravirt: Remove 'noreplace-paravirt' cmdline optionJosh Poimboeuf1-2/+0
The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the original pv indirect calls in place. That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines. As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel vulnerable to Spectre v2. It was probably a debug option from the early paravirt days. So just remove it.

2018-01-11x86/PCI: Add "pci=big_root_window" option for AMD 64-bit windows=?UTF-8?q?Christian=20K=C3=B6nig?=1-0/+6
Only try to enable a 64-bit window on AMD CPUs when "pci=big_root_window" is specified. This taints the kernel because the new 64-bit window uses address space we don't know anything about, and it may contain unreported devices or memory that would conflict with the window. The pci_amd_enable_64bit_bar() quirk that enables the window is specific to AMD CPUs. The generic solution would be to have the firmware enable the window and describe it in the host bridge's _CRS method, or at least describe it in the _PRS method so the OS would have the option of enabling it.

2018-01-04printk: add console_msg_format command line optionSergey Senozhatsky1-0/+14
0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the kernel logs from: a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note) and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages. b) serial consoles This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages don't contain facility and log level. This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option, to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles. For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog. The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the "syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and `cat /proc/kmsg' output formats: - facility and log level - time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME) - message <%u>[time stamp] text\n NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually "dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format, thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw". Per Kevin Hilman: : Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup, : but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to : have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels : in default boot log. : : This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced : search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic : Search, Logstash, Kibana). : : The other important reason for having this on the command line is that : for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches), : it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run : "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.) So we really want this on the primary : boot (serial) console. Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]: `#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern :(err |crit |alert |emerg )' instead of doing text pattern matching `#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} | grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern | grep -a -v -F -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/kmsg-blacklist` [1] https://github.com/fengguang/lkp-tests/blob/master/lib/dmesg.rb Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171221054149.4398-1-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com To: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Cc: Kevin Hilman <khilman@baylibre.com> Cc: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: LKML <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@baylibre.com> Tested-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@baylibre.com> Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>

2017-12-11torture: Eliminate torture_runnable and perf_runnablePaul E. McKenney1-9/+0
The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel (as in not compiled as loadable modules). However, the 0444 permissions for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever being put into practice. Given that there have been no complaints about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually makes use of this sysfs capability. The perf_runnable module parameter for rcuperf is in the same situation. This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well as perf_runnable.

2017-11-27ACPI / PM: Make it possible to ignore the system sleep blacklistRafael J. Wysocki1-1/+4
The ACPI code supporting system transitions to sleep states uses an internal blacklist to apply special handling to some machines reported to behave incorrectly in some ways. However, some entries of that blacklist cover problematic as well as non-problematic systems, so give the users of the latter a chance to ignore the blacklist and run their systems in the default way by adding acpi_sleep=nobl to the kernel command line. For example, that allows the users of Dell XPS13 9360 systems not affected by the issue that caused the blacklist entry for this machine to be added by commit 71630b7a832f (ACPI / PM: Blacklist Low Power S0 Idle _DSM for Dell XPS13 9360) to use suspend-to-idle with the Low Power S0 Idle _DSM interface which in principle should be more energy-efficient than S3 on them.

Pull x86 platform driver updates from Andy Shevchenko: "Here is the collected material against Platform Drivers x86 subsystem. It's rather bit busy cycle for PDx86, mostly due to Dell SMBIOS driver activity For this cycle we have quite an update for the Dell SMBIOS driver including WMI work to provide an interface for SMBIOS tokens via sysfs and WMI support for 2017+ Dell laptop models. SMM dispatcher code is split into a separate driver followed by a new WMI dispatcher. The latter provides a character device interface to user space. The git history also contains a merge of immutable branch from Wolfram Sang in order to apply a dependent fix to the Intel CherryTrail Battery Management driver. Other Intel drivers got a lot of cleanups. The Turbo Boost Max 3.0 support is added for Intel Skylake. Peaq WMI hotkeys driver gets its own maintainer and white list of supported models. Silead DMI is expanded to support few additional platforms. Tablet mode via GMMS ACPI method is added to support some ThinkPad tablets. new driver: - Add driver to force WMI Thunderbolt controller power status asus-wmi: - Add lightbar led support dell-laptop: - Allocate buffer before rfkill use dell-smbios: - fix string overflow - Add filtering support - Introduce dispatcher for SMM calls - Add a sysfs interface for SMBIOS tokens - only run if proper oem string is detected - Prefix class/select with cmd_ - Add pr_fmt definition to driver dell-smbios-smm: - test for WSMT dell-smbios-wmi: - release mutex lock on WMI call failure - introduce userspace interface - Add new WMI dispatcher driver dell-smo8800: - remove redundant assignments to byte_data dell-wmi: - don't check length returned - clean up wmi descriptor check - increase severity of some failures - Do not match on descriptor GUID modalias - Label driver as handling notifications dell-*wmi*: - Relay failed initial probe to dependent drivers dell-wmi-descriptor: - check if memory was allocated - split WMI descriptor into it's own driver fujitsu-laptop: - Fix radio LED detection - Don't oops when FUJ02E3 is not presnt hp_accel: - Add quirk for HP ProBook 440 G4 hp-wmi: - Fix tablet mode detection for convertibles ideapad-laptop: - Add Lenovo Yoga 920-13IKB to no_hw_rfkill dmi list intel_cht_int33fe: - Update fusb302 type string, add properties - make a couple of local functions static - Work around BIOS bug on some devices intel-hid: - Power button suspend on Dell Latitude 7275 intel_ips: - Convert timers to use timer_setup() - Remove FSF address from GPL notice - Remove unneeded fields and label - Keep pointer to struct device - Use PCI_VDEVICE() macro - Switch to new PCI IRQ allocation API - Simplify error handling via devres API intel_pmc_ipc: - Revert Use MFD framework to create dependent devices - Use MFD framework to create dependent devices - Use spin_lock to protect GCR updates - Use devm_* calls in driver probe function intel_punit_ipc: - Fix resource ioremap warning intel_telemetry: - Remove useless default in Kconfig - Add needed inclusion - cleanup redundant headers - Fix typos - Fix load failure info intel_telemetry_debugfs: - Use standard ARRAY_SIZE() macro intel_turbo_max_3: - Add Skylake platform intel-wmi-thunderbolt: - Silence error cases mlx-platform: - make a couple of structures static peaq_wmi: - Fix missing terminating entry for peaq_dmi_table peaq-wmi: - Remove unnecessary checks from peaq_wmi_exit - Add DMI check before binding to the WMI interface - Revert Blacklist Lenovo ideapad 700-15ISK - Blacklist Lenovo ideapad 700-15ISK silead_dmi: - Add silead, home-button property to some tablets - Add entry for the Digma e200 tablet - Fix GP-electronic T701 entry - Add entry for the Chuwi Hi8 Pro tablet sony-laptop: - Drop variable assignment in sony_nc_setup_rfkill() - Fix error handling in sony_nc_setup_rfkill() thinkpad_acpi: - Implement tablet mode using GMMS method tools/wmi: - add a sample for dell smbios communication over WMI wmi: - release mutex on module acquistion failure - create userspace interface for drivers - Don't allow drivers to get each other's GUIDs - Add new method wmidev_evaluate_method - Destroy on cleanup rather than unregister - Cleanup exit routine in reverse order of init - Sort include list" * tag 'platform-drivers-x86-v4.15-1' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-platform-drivers-x86: (74 commits) platform/x86: silead_dmi: Add silead, home-button property to some tablets platform/x86: dell-laptop: Allocate buffer before rfkill use platform/x86: dell-*wmi*: Relay failed initial probe to dependent drivers platform/x86: dell-wmi-descriptor: check if memory was allocated platform/x86: Revert intel_pmc_ipc: Use MFD framework to create dependent devices platform/x86: dell-smbios-wmi: release mutex lock on WMI call failure platform/x86: wmi: release mutex on module acquistion failure platform/x86: dell-smbios: fix string overflow platform/x86: intel_pmc_ipc: Use MFD framework to create dependent devices platform/x86: intel_punit_ipc: Fix resource ioremap warning platform/x86: dell-smo8800: remove redundant assignments to byte_data platform/x86: hp-wmi: Fix tablet mode detection for convertibles platform/x86: intel_ips: Convert timers to use timer_setup() platform/x86: sony-laptop: Drop variable assignment in sony_nc_setup_rfkill() platform/x86: sony-laptop: Fix error handling in sony_nc_setup_rfkill() tools/wmi: add a sample for dell smbios communication over WMI platform/x86: dell-smbios-wmi: introduce userspace interface platform/x86: wmi: create userspace interface for drivers platform/x86: dell-smbios: Add filtering support platform/x86: dell-smbios-smm: test for WSMT ...

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: "A bit of a small release, I suspect in part due to me travelling for KS. But my backlog of patches to review is smaller than usual, so I think in part folks just didn't send as much this cycle. Non-highlights: - Five fixes for the >128T address space handling, both to fix bugs in our implementation and to bring the semantics exactly into line with x86. Highlights: - Support for a new OPAL call on bare metal machines which gives us a true NMI (ie. is not masked by MSR[EE]=0) for debugging etc. - Support for Power9 DD2 in the CXL driver. - Improvements to machine check handling so that uncorrectable errors can be reported into the generic memory_failure() machinery. - Some fixes and improvements for VPHN, which is used under PowerVM to notify the Linux partition of topology changes. - Plumbing to enable TM (transactional memory) without suspend on some Power9 processors (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NO_SUSPEND). - Support for emulating vector loads form cache-inhibited memory, on some Power9 revisions. - Disable the fast-endian switch "syscall" by default (behind a CONFIG), we believe it has never had any users. - A major rework of the API drivers use when initiating and waiting for long running operations performed by OPAL firmware, and changes to the powernv_flash driver to use the new API. - Several fixes for the handling of FP/VMX/VSX while processes are using transactional memory. - Optimisations of TLB range flushes when using the radix MMU on Power9. - Improvements to the VAS facility used to access coprocessors on Power9, and related improvements to the way the NX crypto driver handles requests. - Implementation of PMEM_API and UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE for 64-bit.
