Pull remoteproc updates from Bjorn Andersson:
"This introduces device managed versions of functions used to register
remoteproc devices, add support for remoteproc driver specific
resource control, enables remoteproc drivers to specify ELF class and
machine for coredumps. It integrates pm_runtime in the core for
keeping resources active while the remote is booted and holds a wake
source while recoverying a remote processor after a firmware crash.
It refactors the remoteproc device's allocation path to simplify the
logic, fix a few cleanup bugs and to not clone const strings onto the
heap. Debugfs code is simplifies using the DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE and a
zero-length array is replaced with flexible-array.
A new remoteproc driver for the JZ47xx VPU is introduced, the Qualcomm
SM8250 gains support for audio, compute and sensor remoteprocs and the
Qualcomm SC7180 modem support is cleaned up and improved.
The Qualcomm glink subsystem-restart driver is merged into the main
glink driver, the Qualcomm sysmon driver is extended to properly
notify remote processors about all other remote processors' state
transitions"

Pull ceph updates from Ilya Dryomov:
"The highlights are:
- OSD/MDS latency and caps cache metrics infrastructure for the
filesytem (Xiubo Li). Currently available through debugfs and will
be periodically sent to the MDS in the future.
- support for replica reads (balanced and localized reads) for rbd
and the filesystem (myself). The default remains to always read
from primary, users can opt-in with the new crush_location and
read_from_replica options. Note that reading from replica is safe
for general use only since Octopus.
- support for RADOS allocation hint flags (myself). Currently used by
rbd to propagate the compressible/incompressible hint given with
the new compression_hint map option and ready for passing on more
advanced hints, e.g. based on fadvise() from the filesystem.
- support for efficient cross-quota-realm renames (Luis Henriques)
- assorted cap handling improvements and cleanups, particularly
untangling some of the locking (Jeff Layton)"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull iommu updates from Joerg Roedel:
"A big part of this is a change in how devices get connected to IOMMUs
in the core code. It contains the change from the old add_device() /
remove_device() to the new probe_device() / release_device()
call-backs.
As a result functionality that was previously in the IOMMU drivers has
been moved to the IOMMU core code, including IOMMU group allocation
for each device. The reason for this change was to get more robust
allocation of default domains for the iommu groups.
A couple of fixes were necessary after this was merged into the IOMMU
tree, but there are no known bugs left. The last fix is applied on-top
of the merge commit for the topic branches.
Other than that change, we have:
- Removal of the driver private domain handling in the Intel VT-d
driver. This was fragile code and I am glad it is gone now.
- More Intel VT-d updates from Lu Baolu:
- Nested Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) support to the Intel VT-d
driver
- Replacement of the Intel SVM interfaces to the common IOMMU SVA
API
- SVA Page Request draining support
- ARM-SMMU Updates from Will:
- Avoid mapping reserved MMIO space on SMMUv3, so that it can be
claimed by the PMU driver
- Use xarray to manage ASIDs on SMMUv3
- Reword confusing shutdown message
- DT compatible string updates
- Allow implementations to override the default domain type
- A new IOMMU driver for the Allwinner Sun50i platform
- Support for ATS gets disabled for untrusted devices (like
Thunderbolt devices). This includes a PCI patch, acked by Bjorn.
- Some cleanups to the AMD IOMMU driver to make more use of IOMMU
core features.
- Unification of some printk formats in the Intel and AMD IOMMU
drivers and in the IOVA code.
- Updates for DT bindings
- A number of smaller fixes and cleanups.

Starting from v4.19 commit 29ef680ae7c2 ("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory
back to the charge path") cgroup oom killer is no longer invoked only
from page faults. Now it implements the same semantics as global OOM
killer: allocation context invokes OOM killer and keeps retrying until
success.

Patch series "sort out the flush_icache_range mess", v2.
flush_icache_range is mostly used for kernel address, except for the
following cases:
- the nommu brk and mmap implementations
- the read_code helper that is only used for binfmt_flat,
binfmt_elf_fdpic, and binfmt_aout including the broken
ia32 compat version
- binfmt_flat itself
none of which really are used by a typical MMU enabled kernel, as a.out
can only be build for alpha and m68k to start with.
But strangely enough commit ae92ef8a4424 ("PATCH] flush icache in
correct context") added a "set_fs(KERNEL_DS)" around the
flush_icache_range call in the module loader, because apparently m68k
assumed user pointers.
This series first cleans up the cacheflush implementations, largely by
switching as much as possible to the asm-generic version after a few
preparations, then moves the misnamed current flush_icache_user_range to
a new name, to finally introduce a real flush_icache_user_range to be
used for the above use cases to flush the instruction cache for a
userspace address range. The last patch then drops the set_fs in the
module code and moves it into the m68k implementation.
This patch (of 29):
The arguments passed look bogus, try to fix them to something that seems
to make sense.

This code was using get_user_pages*(), in approximately a "Case 5"
scenario (accessing the data within a page), using the categorization
from [1]. That means that it's time to convert the get_user_pages*() +
put_page() calls to pin_user_pages*() + unpin_user_pages() calls.
There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small part
of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and file
systems' use of those pages.

Patch series "vhost, docs: convert to pin_user_pages(), new "case 5""
It recently became clear to me that there are some get_user_pages*()
callers that don't fit neatly into any of the four cases that are so far
listed in pin_user_pages.rst. vhost.c is one of those.
Add a Case 5 to the documentation, and refer to that when converting
vhost.c.
Thanks to Jan Kara for helping me (again) in understanding the
interaction between get_user_pages() and page writeback [1].
This is based on today's mmotm, which has a nearby patch to
pin_user_pages.rst that rewords cases 3 and 4.
Note that I have only compile-tested the vhost.c patch, although that
does also include cross-compiling for a few other arches. Any run-time
testing would be greatly appreciated.

This patch (of 2):
There are four cases listed in pin_user_pages.rst. These are intended
to help developers figure out whether to use get_user_pages*(), or
pin_user_pages*(). However, the four cases do not cover all the
situations. For example, drivers/vhost/vhost.c has a "pin, write to
page, set page dirty, unpin" case.
Add a fifth case, to help explain that there is a general pattern that
requires pin_user_pages*() API calls.

All of the pin_user_pages*() API calls will cause pages to be
dma-pinned. As such, they are all suitable for either DMA, RDMA, and/or
Direct IO.
The documentation should say so, but it was instead saying that three of
the API calls were only suitable for Direct IO. This was discovered
when a reviewer wondered why an API call that specifically recommended
against Case 2 (DMA/RDMA) was being used in a DMA situation [1].
Fix this by simply deleting those claims. The gup.c comments already
refer to the more extensive Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst,
which does have the correct guidance. So let's just write it once,
there.

Patch series "mm/gup: introduce pin_user_pages_locked(), use it in frame_vector.c", v2.
This adds yet one more pin_user_pages*() variant, and uses that to
convert mm/frame_vector.c.
With this, along with maybe 20 or 30 other recent patches in various
trees, we are close to having the relevant gup call sites
converted--with the notable exception of the bio/block layer.
This patch (of 2):
Introduce pin_user_pages_locked(), which is nearly identical to
get_user_pages_locked() except that it sets FOLL_PIN and rejects
FOLL_GET.
As with other pairs of get_user_pages*() and pin_user_pages() API calls,
it's prudent to assert that FOLL_PIN is *not* set in the
get_user_pages*() call, so add that as part of this.

API __get_user_pages_fast() renamed to get_user_pages_fast_only() to
align with pin_user_pages_fast_only().
As part of this we will get rid of write parameter. Instead caller will
pass FOLL_WRITE to get_user_pages_fast_only(). This will not change any
existing functionality of the API.
All the callers are changed to pass FOLL_WRITE.
Also introduce get_user_page_fast_only(), and use it in a few places
that hard-code nr_pages to 1.
Updated the documentation of the API.

Users with SYS_ADMIN capability can add arbitrary taint flags to the
running kernel by writing to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted or issuing the
command 'sysctl -w kernel.tainted=...'. This interface, however, is
open for any integer value and this might cause an invalid set of flags
being committed to the tainted_mask bitset.
This patch introduces a simple way for proc_taint() to ignore any
eventual invalid bit coming from the user input before committing those
bits to the kernel tainted_mask.

Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no
return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel
splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump
and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to
collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel).
When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to
try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown
their VMs / finish their important tasks.
This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an
oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the
usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added
(and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set
will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces.
Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for
some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough
to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual
environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could
lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes).
This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without
resorting to kdump.

Commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before
panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs
backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel
parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually
when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is
another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as
hung.
The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly
expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in
many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that
plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down
the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console,
which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily
grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command).
Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in
seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung
task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a
policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on
hung_task_panic.
This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs
backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called
"hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard
lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to
allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs
backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not
dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left.

After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.
This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or
1, not the full range of integers.
We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the
previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put
the alias table in alphabetical order.
