Pull arm SoC platform updates from Olof Johansson:
"SoC updates, mostly refactorings and cleanups of old legacy platforms,
but also a few more things:
New SoC support this release:
- NXP/Freescale i.MX7ULP (1x Cortex-A7, Cortex-M4, graphics, etc)
- Allwinner F1C100, older platform with an ARM926-EJS (ARMv5) core
Cleanups of various platforms:
- OMAP1 ams-delta does some GPIO cleanups
- Davinci removes of at24 platform data
- Samsung cleans up old wakeup, PM debug and secondary core boot code
- Renesas moves around config options and PM code to drivers/soc for
sharing with 64-bit and more consistency
- i.MX, Broadcom and SoCFPGA all have tweaks to lowlevel debug
console setups
- SoCFPGA adds explicit selection of ARM errata and removes some
unused code
This also contains a few patches that I had queued up as fixes for
4.20 but didn't send in before the release"

i.MX8MQ device tree support for 4.21:
- It contains the initial device tree support for i.MX8MQ - the first
ARM64 i.MX processor. It features a quad Cortex-A53 core that
operates at speeds of up to 1.3 GHz, a Cortex-M4 core for
low-power processing, a DRAM controller that supports 32-bit/16-bit
LPDDR4/DDR4/DDR3L memory, and hardware acceleration for 4K video
playback.
- A couple of patches from Baruch that add watchdog device for i.MX8MQ
enable it for imx8mq-evk board.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Rework of the kprobe/uprobe and synthetic events to consolidate all
the dynamic event code. This will make changes in the future easier.
- Partial rewrite of the function graph tracing infrastructure. This
will allow for multiple users of hooking onto functions to get the
callback (return) of the function. This is the ground work for having
kprobes and function graph tracer using one code base.
- Clean up of the histogram code that will facilitate adding more
features to the histograms in the future.
- Addition of str_has_prefix() and a few use cases. There currently is
a similar function strstart() that is used in a few places, but only
returns a bool and not a length. These instances will be removed in
the future to use str_has_prefix() instead.
- A few other various clean ups as well.
* tag 'trace-v4.21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (57 commits)
tracing: Use the return of str_has_prefix() to remove open coded numbers

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, we've focused on bug fixes since Pixel devices have
been shipping with f2fs. Some of them were related to hardware
encryption support which are actually not an issue in mainline, but
would be better to merge them in order to avoid potential bugs.
Enhancements:
- do GC sub-sections when the section is large
- add a flag in ioctl(SHUTDOWN) to trigger fsck for QA
- use kvmalloc() in order to give another chance to avoid ENOMEM
Bug fixes:
- fix accessing memory boundaries in a malformed iamge
- GC gives stale unencrypted block
- GC counts in large sections
- detect idle time more precisely
- block allocation of DIO writes
- race conditions between write_begin and write_checkpoint
- allow GCs for node segments via ioctl()
There are various clean-ups and minor bug fixes as well"

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of char and misc driver patches for 4.21-rc1.
Lots of different types of driver things in here, as this tree seems
to be the "collection of various driver subsystems not big enough to
have their own git tree" lately.
Anyway, some highlights of the changes in here:
- binderfs: is it a rule that all driver subsystems will eventually
grow to have their own filesystem? Binder now has one to handle the
use of it in containerized systems.
This was discussed at the Plumbers conference a few months ago and
knocked into mergable shape very fast by Christian Brauner. Who
also has signed up to be another binder maintainer, showing a
distinct lack of good judgement :)
- binder updates and fixes
- mei driver updates
- fpga driver updates and additions
- thunderbolt driver updates
- soundwire driver updates
- extcon driver updates
- nvmem driver updates
- hyper-v driver updates

Pull Devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
"The biggest highlight here is the start of using json-schema for DT
bindings. Being able to validate bindings has been discussed for years
with little progress.
- Initial support for DT bindings using json-schema language. This is
the start of converting DT bindings from free-form text to a
structured format.
- Reworking of initrd address initialization. This moves to using the
phys address instead of virt addr in the DT parsing code. This
rework was motivated by CONFIG_DEV_BLK_INITRD causing unnecessary
rebuilding of lots of files.
- Fix stale phandle entries in phandle cache
- DT overlay validation improvements. This exposed several memory
leak bugs which have been fixed.
- Use node name and device_type helper functions in DT code
- Last remaining conversions to using %pOFn printk specifier instead
of device_node.name directly
- Create new common RTC binding doc and move all trivial RTC devices
out of trivial-devices.txt.

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.21 kernel series.
Core changes:
- Some core changes are already in outside of this pull request as
they came through the regulator tree, most notably
devm_gpiod_unhinge() that removes devres refcount management from a
GPIO descriptor. This is needed in subsystems such as regulators
where the regulator core need to take over the reference counting
and lifecycle management for a GPIO descriptor.
- We dropped devm_gpiochip_remove() and devm_gpio_chip_match() as
nothing needs it. We can bring it back if need be.
- Add a global TODO so people see where we are going. This helps
setting the direction now that we are two GPIO maintainers.
- Handle the MMC CD/WP properties in the device tree core. (The bulk
of patches activating this code is already merged through the
MMC/SD tree.)
- Augment gpiochip_request_own_desc() to pass a flag so we as
gpiochips can request lines as active low or open drain etc even
from ourselves.
New drivers:
- New driver for Cadence GPIO blocks.
- New driver for Atmel SAMA5D2 PIOBU GPIO lines.
Driver improvements:
- A major refactoring of the PCA953x driver - this driver has been
around for ages, and is now modernized to reduce code duplication
that has stacked up and is using regmap to read write and cache
registers.
- Intel drivers are now maintained in a separate tree and start with
a round of cleanups and unifications"

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The vast bulk of this update is the new support for the security
capabilities of some nvdimms.
The userspace tooling for this capability is still a work in progress,
but the changes survive the existing libnvdimm unit tests. The changes
also pass manual checkout on hardware and the new nfit_test emulation
of the security capability.
The touches of the security/keys/ files have received the necessary
acks from Mimi and David. Those changes were necessary to allow for a
new generic encrypted-key type, and allow the nvdimm sub-system to
lookup key material referenced by the libnvdimm-sysfs interface.
Summary:
- Add support for the security features of nvdimm devices that
implement a security model similar to ATA hard drive security. The
security model supports locking access to the media at
device-power-loss, to be unlocked with a passphrase, and
secure-erase (crypto-scramble).
Unlike the ATA security case where the kernel expects device
security to be managed in a pre-OS environment, the libnvdimm
security implementation allows key provisioning and key-operations
at OS runtime. Keys are managed with the kernel's encrypted-keys
facility to provide data-at-rest security for the libnvdimm key
material. The usage model mirrors fscrypt key management, but is
driven via libnvdimm sysfs.
- Miscellaneous updates for api usage and comment fixes"

Pull DMA mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
"A huge update this time, but a lot of that is just consolidating or
removing code:
- provide a common DMA_MAPPING_ERROR definition and avoid indirect
calls for dma_map_* error checking
- use direct calls for the DMA direct mapping case, avoiding huge
retpoline overhead for high performance workloads
- merge the swiotlb dma_map_ops into dma-direct
- provide a generic remapping DMA consistent allocator for
architectures that have devices that perform DMA that is not cache
coherent. Based on the existing arm64 implementation and also used
for csky now.
- improve the dma-debug infrastructure, including dynamic allocation
of entries (Robin Murphy)
- default to providing chaining scatterlist everywhere, with opt-outs
for the few architectures (alpha, parisc, most arm32 variants) that
can't cope with it
- misc sparc32 dma-related cleanups
- remove the dma_mark_clean arch hook used by swiotlb on ia64 and
replace it with the generic noncoherent infrastructure
- fix the return type of dma_set_max_seg_size (Niklas Söderlund)
- move the dummy dma ops for not DMA capable devices from arm64 to
common code (Robin Murphy)
- ensure dma_alloc_coherent returns zeroed memory to avoid kernel
data leaks through userspace. We already did this for most common
architectures, but this ensures we do it everywhere.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.
Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.
This contains:
- Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)
- Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)
- Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)
- bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
* Optimizations for writeback caching
* Various fixes and improvements
- nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
* host and target support for NVMe over TCP
* Error log page support
* Support for separate read/write/poll queues
* Much improved polling
* discard OOM fallback
* Tracepoint improvements
- lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
* Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
per LBA can be used as well.
* Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
* Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
* Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
code.
* Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
* Small geometry cleanup from me.
- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)
- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.
- Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)
- Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)
- Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)

Pull y2038 updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"More syscalls and cleanups
This concludes the main part of the system call rework for 64-bit
time_t, which has spread over most of year 2018, the last six system
calls being
- ppoll
- pselect6
- io_pgetevents
- recvmmsg
- futex
- rt_sigtimedwait
As before, nothing changes for 64-bit architectures, while 32-bit
architectures gain another entry point that differs only in the layout
of the timespec structure. Hopefully in the next release we can wire
up all 22 of those system calls on all 32-bit architectures, which
gives us a baseline version for glibc to start using them.
This does not include the clock_adjtime, getrusage/waitid, and
getitimer/setitimer system calls. I still plan to have new versions of
those as well, but they are not required for correct operation of the
C library since they can be emulated using the old 32-bit time_t based
system calls.

David Rientjes has reported that commit 1860033237d4 ("mm: make
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE immediately active") has changed the way how we
report THPable VMAs to the userspace. Their monitoring tool is
triggering false alarms on PR_SET_THP_DISABLE tasks because it considers
an insufficient THP usage as a memory fragmentation resp. memory
pressure issue.
Before the said commit each newly created VMA inherited VM_NOHUGEPAGE
flag and that got exposed to the userspace via /proc/<pid>/smaps file.
This implementation had its downsides as explained in the commit message
but it is true that the userspace doesn't have any means to query for
the process wide THP enabled/disabled status.
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE is a process wide flag so it makes a lot of sense to
export in the process wide context rather than per-vma. Introduce a new
field to /proc/<pid>/status which export this status. If
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE is used then it reports false same as when the THP is
not compiled in. It doesn't consider the global THP status because we
already export that information via sysfs

Userspace falls short when trying to find out whether a specific memory
range is eligible for THP. There are usecases that would like to know
that
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com
: This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp
: but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation
: issue.
The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and
confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is
not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of
VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs
but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these
days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the
eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration
knob.
Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in
/proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse
transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original
implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma
itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into
__transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers.
__show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also
checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of
line due to include dependency issues).

Patch series "THP eligibility reporting via proc".
This series of three patches aims at making THP eligibility reporting much
more robust and long term sustainable. The trigger for the change is a
regression report [2] and the long follow up discussion. In short the
specific application didn't have good API to query whether a particular
mapping can be backed by THP so it has used VMA flags to workaround that.
These flags represent a deep internal state of VMAs and as such they
should be used by userspace with a great deal of caution.
A similar has happened for [3] when users complained that VM_MIXEDMAP is
no longer set on DAX mappings. Again a lack of a proper API led to an
abuse.
The first patch in the series tries to emphasise that that the semantic of
flags might change and any application consuming those should be really
careful.
The remaining two patches provide a more suitable interface to address [2]
and provide a consistent API to query the THP status both for each VMA and
process wide as well. [1]
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181120103515.25280-1-mhocko@kernel.org [2]
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809241054050.224429@chino.kir.corp.google.com
[3] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181002100531.GC4135@quack2.suse.cz
This patch (of 3):
Even though vma flags exported via /proc/<pid>/smaps are explicitly
documented to be not guaranteed for future compatibility the warning
doesn't go far enough because it doesn't mention semantic changes to those
flags. And they are important as well because these flags are a deep
implementation internal to the MM code and the semantic might change at
any time.
Let's consider two recent examples:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181002100531.GC4135@quack2.suse.cz
: commit e1fb4a086495 "dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax" has
: removed VM_MIXEDMAP flag from DAX VMAs. Now our testing shows that in the
: mean time certain customer of ours started poking into /proc/<pid>/smaps
: and looks at VMA flags there and if VM_MIXEDMAP is missing among the VMA
: flags, the application just fails to start complaining that DAX support is
: missing in the kernel.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809241054050.224429@chino.kir.corp.google.com
: Commit 1860033237d4 ("mm: make PR_SET_THP_DISABLE immediately active")
: introduced a regression in that userspace cannot always determine the set
: of vmas where thp is ineligible.
: Userspace relies on the "nh" flag being emitted as part of /proc/pid/smaps
: to determine if a vma is eligible to be backed by hugepages.
: Previous to this commit, prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, 1) would cause thp to
: be disabled and emit "nh" as a flag for the corresponding vmas as part of
: /proc/pid/smaps. After the commit, thp is disabled by means of an mm
: flag and "nh" is not emitted.
: This causes smaps parsing libraries to assume a vma is eligible for thp
: and ends up puzzling the user on why its memory is not backed by thp.
In both cases userspace was relying on a semantic of a specific VMA flag.
The primary reason why that happened is a lack of a proper interface.
While this has been worked on and it will be fixed properly, it seems that
our wording could see some refinement and be more vocal about semantic
aspect of these flags as well.

If there are lots of write IO with flash device, it could have a
wearout problem of storage. To overcome the problem, admin needs
to design write limitation to guarantee flash health
for entire product life.
This patch creates a new knob "writeback_limit" for zram.
writeback_limit's default value is 0 so that it doesn't limit
any writeback. If admin want to measure writeback count in a
certain period, he could know it via /sys/block/zram0/bd_stat's
3rd column.
If admin want to limit writeback as per-day 400M, he could do it
like below.
MB_SHIFT=20
4K_SHIFT=12
echo $((400<<MB_SHIFT>>4K_SHIFT)) > \
/sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit.
If admin want to allow further write again, he could do it like below
echo 0 > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit
If admin want to see remaining writeback budget,
cat /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit
The writeback_limit count will reset whenever you reset zram (e.g., system
reboot, echo 1 > /sys/block/zramX/reset) so keeping how many of writeback
happened until you reset the zram to allocate extra writeback budget in
next setting is user's job.

Add a new feature "zram idle/huge page writeback". In the zram-swap use
case, zram usually has many idle/huge swap pages. It's pointless to keep
them in memory (ie, zram).
To solve this problem, this feature introduces idle/huge page writeback to
the backing device so the goal is to save more memory space on embedded
systems.
Normal sequence to use idle/huge page writeback feature is as follows,
while (1) {
# mark allocated zram slot to idle
echo all > /sys/block/zram0/idle
# leave system working for several hours
# Unless there is no access for some blocks on zram,
# they are still IDLE marked pages.
echo "idle" > /sys/block/zram0/writeback
or/and
echo "huge" > /sys/block/zram0/writeback
# write the IDLE or/and huge marked slot into backing device
# and free the memory.
}
Per the discussion at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181122065926.GG3441@jagdpanzerIV/T/#u,
This patch removes direct incommpressibe page writeback feature
(d2afd25114f4 ("zram: write incompressible pages to backing device")).
Below concerns from Sergey:
== &< ==
"IDLE writeback" is superior to "incompressible writeback".
"incompressible writeback" is completely unpredictable and uncontrollable;
it depens on data patterns and compression algorithms. While "IDLE
writeback" is predictable.
I even suspect, that, *ideally*, we can remove "incompressible writeback".
"IDLE pages" is a super set which also includes "incompressible" pages.
So, technically, we still can do "incompressible writeback" from "IDLE
writeback" path; but a much more reasonable one, based on a page idling
period.
I understand that you want to keep "direct incompressible writeback"
around. ZRAM is especially popular on devices which do suffer from flash
wearout, so I can see "incompressible writeback" path becoming a dead
code, long term.
== &< ==
Below concerns from Minchan:
== &< ==
My concern is if we enable CONFIG_ZRAM_WRITEBACK in this implementation,
both hugepage/idlepage writeck will turn on. However someuser want to
enable only idlepage writeback so we need to introduce turn on/off knob
for hugepage or new CONFIG_ZRAM_IDLEPAGE_WRITEBACK for those usecase. I
don't want to make it complicated *if possible*.
Long term, I imagine we need to make VM aware of new swap hierarchy a
little bit different with as-is. For example, first high priority swap
can return -EIO or -ENOCOMP, swap try to fallback to next lower priority
swap device. With that, hugepage writeback will work tranparently.
So we could regard it as regression because incompressible pages doesn't
go to backing storage automatically. Instead, user should do it via "echo
huge" > /sys/block/zram/writeback" manually.

To support idle page writeback with upcoming patches, this patch
introduces a new ZRAM_IDLE flag.
Userspace can mark zram slots as "idle" via
"echo all > /sys/block/zramX/idle"
which marks every allocated zram slot as ZRAM_IDLE.
User could see it by /sys/kernel/debug/zram/zram0/block_state.
300 75.033841 ...i
301 63.806904 s..i
302 63.806919 ..hi
Once there is IO for the slot, the mark will be disappeared.
300 75.033841 ...
301 63.806904 s..i
302 63.806919 ..hi
Therefore, 300th block is idle zpage. With this feature,
user can how many zram has idle pages which are waste of memory.

An external fragmentation event was previously described as
When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using
the mm_page_alloc_extfrag event. If the fallback_order is smaller
than a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered
an event that will cause external fragmentation issues in the future.
The kernel reduces the probability of such events by increasing the
watermark sizes by calling set_recommended_min_free_kbytes early in the
lifetime of the system. This works reasonably well in general but if
there are enough sparsely populated pageblocks then the problem can still
occur as enough memory is free overall and kswapd stays asleep.
This patch introduces a watermark_boost_factor sysctl that allows a zone
watermark to be temporarily boosted when an external fragmentation causing
events occurs. The boosting will stall allocations that would decrease
free memory below the boosted low watermark and kswapd is woken if the
calling context allows to reclaim an amount of memory relative to the size
of the high watermark and the watermark_boost_factor until the boost is
cleared. When kswapd finishes, it wakes kcompactd at the pageblock order
to clean some of the pageblocks that may have been affected by the
fragmentation event. kswapd avoids any writeback, slab shrinkage and swap
from reclaim context during this operation to avoid excessive system
disruption in the name of fragmentation avoidance. Care is taken so that
kswapd will do normal reclaim work if the system is really low on memory.
This was evaluated using the same workloads as "mm, page_alloc: Spread
allocations across zones before introducing fragmentation".

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) New ipset extensions for matching on destination MAC addresses, from
Stefano Brivio.
2) Add ipv4 ttl and tos, plus ipv6 flow label and hop limit offloads to
nfp driver. From Stefano Brivio.
3) Implement GRO for plain UDP sockets, from Paolo Abeni.
4) Lots of work from Michał Mirosław to eliminate the VLAN_TAG_PRESENT
bit so that we could support the entire vlan_tci value.
5) Rework the IPSEC policy lookups to better optimize more usecases,
from Florian Westphal.
6) Infrastructure changes eliminating direct manipulation of SKB lists
wherever possible, and to always use the appropriate SKB list
helpers. This work is still ongoing...
7) Lots of PHY driver and state machine improvements and
simplifications, from Heiner Kallweit.
8) Various TSO deferral refinements, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Add ntuple filter support to aquantia driver, from Dmitry Bogdanov.
10) Batch dropping of XDP packets in tuntap, from Jason Wang.
11) Lots of cleanups and improvements to the r8169 driver from Heiner
Kallweit, including support for ->xmit_more. This driver has been
getting some much needed love since he started working on it.
12) Lots of new forwarding selftests from Petr Machata.
13) Enable VXLAN learning in mlxsw driver, from Ido Schimmel.
14) Packed ring support for virtio, from Tiwei Bie.
15) Add new Aquantia AQtion USB driver, from Dmitry Bezrukov.
16) Add XDP support to dpaa2-eth driver, from Ioana Ciocoi Radulescu.
17) Implement coalescing on TCP backlog queue, from Eric Dumazet.
18) Implement carrier change in tun driver, from Nicolas Dichtel.
19) Support msg_zerocopy in UDP, from Willem de Bruijn.
20) Significantly improve garbage collection of neighbor objects when
the table has many PERMANENT entries, from David Ahern.
21) Remove egdev usage from nfp and mlx5, and remove the facility
completely from the tree as it no longer has any users. From Oz
Shlomo and others.
22) Add a NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR so that drivers can veto the change and
therefore abort the operation before the commit phase (which is the
NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event). From Petr Machata.
23) Add indirect call wrappers to avoid retpoline overhead, and use them
in the GRO code paths. From Paolo Abeni.
24) Add support for netlink FDB get operations, from Roopa Prabhu.
25) Support bloom filter in mlxsw driver, from Nir Dotan.
26) Add SKB extension infrastructure. This consolidates the handling of
the auxiliary SKB data used by IPSEC and bridge netfilter, and is
designed to support the needs to MPTCP which could be integrated in
the future.
27) Lots of XDP TX optimizations in mlx5 from Tariq Toukan.

Pull selinux patches from Paul Moore:
"I already used my best holiday pull request lines in the audit pull
request, so this one is going to be a bit more boring, sorry about
that. To make up for this, we do have a birthday of sorts to
celebrate: SELinux turns 18 years old this December. Perhaps not the
most exciting thing in the world for most people, but I think it's
safe to say that anyone reading this email doesn't exactly fall into
the "most people" category.
Back to business and the pull request itself:
Ondrej has five patches in this pull request and I lump them into
three categories: one patch to always allow submounts (using similar
logic to elsewhere in the kernel), one to fix some issues with the
SELinux policydb, and the others to cleanup and improve the SELinux
sidtab.
The other patches from Alexey and Petr and trivial fixes that are
adequately described in their respective subject lines.
With this last pull request of the year, I want to thank everyone who
has contributed patches, testing, and reviews to the SELinux project
this year, and the past 18 years. Like any good open source effort,
SELinux is only as good as the community which supports it, and I'm
very happy that we have the community we do - thank you all!"
