If the EXCHGID4_FLAG_CONFIRMED_R flag is set, the client is in theory
supposed to already know the correct value of the seqid, in which case
RFC5661 states that it should ignore the value returned.
Also ensure that if the sanity check in nfs4_check_cl_exchange_flags
fails, then we must not change the nfs_client fields.
Finally, clean up the code: we don't need to retest the value of
'status' unless it can change.

The generic strncpy_from_user() is not really optimal, since it is
designed to work on both little-endian and big-endian. And on
little-endian you can simplify much of the logic to find the first zero
byte, since little-endian arithmetic doesn't have to worry about the
carry bit propagating into earlier bytes (only later bytes, which we
don't care about).
But I have patches to make the generic routines use the architecture-
specific <asm/word-at-a-time.h> infrastructure, so that we can regain
the little-endian optimizations. But before we do that, switch over to
the generic routines to make the patches each do just one well-defined
thing.

Apparently the patch "NFS: Always use the same SETCLIENTID boot verifier"
is tickling a Linux nfs server bug, and causing a regression: the server
can get into a situation where it keeps replying NFS4ERR_SEQ_MISORDERED

The hardwall drain code was not properly implemented for tilegx,
just tilepro, so you couldn't reliably restart an application that
made use of the udn.
In addition, the code was only applicable to the udn (user dynamic
network). On tilegx there is a second user network that is available
(the "idn"), and there is support for having I/O shims deliver
user-level interrupts to applications ("ipi") which functions in a
very similar way to the inter-core permissions used for udn/idn.
So this change also generalizes the code from supporting just the udn
to supports udn/idn/ipi on tilegx.
By default we now use /dev/hardwall/{udn,idn,ipi} with separate
minor numbers for the three devices.

This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new
arch_make_huge_pte() method. The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a
given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive
pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry.
One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels
of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument
on the boot command line. A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux
to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of
the page table.
To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can
handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of
memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem.
As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support,
which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor
of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

The tile support for multiple-size huge pages requires tagging
the hugetlb PTE with a "super" bit for PTEs that are multiples of
the basic size of a pagetable span. To set that bit properly
we need to tweak the PTe in make_huge_pte() based on the vma.
This change provides the API for a subsequent tile-specific
change to use.

not used in practice. Make it MIPS compatible instead so it can

enables that.

This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context()
API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor. Clients
can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they
install a new context. In practice, the page size is fixed at
kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every
time a new page table is installed.
The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract
macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables. For
example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old
HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL. The various PFN routines have been eliminated and
only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed
in fixed 2KB "page" size). The page-table management macros are
renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with
the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single
place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves.
I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken
(it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work
correctly with other page sizes.
Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with
a conflicting page size. (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.)

Use direct load/store for the get_user/put_user.
Previously, we would call out to a helper routine that would do the
appropriate thing and then return, handling the possible exception
internally. Now we inline the load or store, along with a "we succeeded"
indication in a register; if the load or store faults, we write a
"we failed" indication into the same register and then return to the
following instruction. This is more efficient and gives us more compact
code, as well as being more in line with what other architectures do.
The special futex assembly source file for TILE-Gx also disappears in
this change; we just use the same inlining idiom there as well, putting
the appropriate atomic operations directly into futex_atomic_op_inuser()
(and thus into the FUTEX_WAIT function).
The underlying atomic copy_from_user, copy_to_user functions were
renamed using the (cryptic) x86 convention as copy_from_user_ll and
copy_to_user_ll.

The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally,
using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and
from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure
holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into
this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined
that are used by the transparent hugepage framework.
The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a
transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages.
This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the
generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect.

In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an
interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through
a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical
section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need
to support this path in the kernel. (On tilepro we did implement
that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.)
In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's
where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical
section, but this change cleans up a few things. The IRQ_ENABLE
macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a
deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can
read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section.
The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead
of interrupt critical sections. And, the interrupt-entry code is
changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after
we have released the interrupt critical section.

Pull CMA and ARM DMA-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski:
"These patches contain two major updates for DMA mapping subsystem
(mainly for ARM architecture). First one is Contiguous Memory
Allocator (CMA) which makes it possible for device drivers to allocate
big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has booted.
The main difference from the similar frameworks is the fact that CMA
allows to transparently reuse the memory region reserved for the big
chunk allocation as a system memory, so no memory is wasted when no
big chunk is allocated. Once the alloc request is issued, the
framework migrates system pages to create space for the required big
chunk of physically contiguous memory.
For more information one can refer to nice LWN articles:
- 'A reworked contiguous memory allocator':
http://lwn.net/Articles/447405/
- 'CMA and ARM':
http://lwn.net/Articles/450286/
- 'A deep dive into CMA':
http://lwn.net/Articles/486301/
- and the following thread with the patches and links to all previous
versions:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/204
The main client for this new framework is ARM DMA-mapping subsystem.
The second part provides a complete redesign in ARM DMA-mapping
subsystem. The core implementation has been changed to use common
struct dma_map_ops based infrastructure with the recent updates for
new dma attributes merged in v3.4-rc2. This allows to use more than
one implementation of dma-mapping calls and change/select them on the
struct device basis. The first client of this new infractructure is
dmabounce implementation which has been completely cut out of the
core, common code.
The last patch of this redesign update introduces a new, experimental
implementation of dma-mapping calls on top of generic IOMMU framework.
This lets ARM sub-platform to transparently use IOMMU for DMA-mapping
calls if one provides required IOMMU hardware.
For more information please refer to the following thread:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg175729.html
The last patch merges changes from both updates and provides a
resolution for the conflicts which cannot be avoided when patches have
been applied on the same files (mainly arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c)."

The main requirement I have for this interface is for scanning out
using the USB gpu devices. Since these devices have to read the
framebuffer on updates and linearly compress it, using kmaps
is a major overhead for every update.
v2: fix warn issues pointed out by Sylwester Nawrocki.
v3: fix compile !CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER and add _GPL for now

Compared to Rob Clark's RFC I've ditched the prepare/finish hooks
and corresponding ioctls on the dma_buf file. The major reason for
that is that many people seem to be under the impression that this is
also for synchronization with outstanding asynchronous processsing.
I'm pretty massively opposed to this because:
- It boils down reinventing a new rather general-purpose userspace
synchronization interface. If we look at things like futexes, this
is hard to get right.
- Furthermore a lot of kernel code has to interact with this
synchronization primitive. This smells a look like the dri1 hw_lock,
a horror show I prefer not to reinvent.
- Even more fun is that multiple different subsystems would interact
here, so we have plenty of opportunities to create funny deadlock
scenarios.
I think synchronization is a wholesale different problem from data
sharing and should be tackled as an orthogonal problem.
Now we could demand that prepare/finish may only ensure cache
coherency (as Rob intended), but that runs up into the next problem:
We not only need mmap support to facilitate sw-only processing nodes
in a pipeline (without jumping through hoops by importing the dma_buf
into some sw-access only importer), which allows for a nicer
ION->dma-buf upgrade path for existing Android userspace. We also need
mmap support for existing importing subsystems to support existing
userspace libraries. And a loot of these subsystems are expected to
export coherent userspace mappings.
So prepare/finish can only ever be optional and the exporter /needs/
to support coherent mappings. Given that mmap access is always
somewhat fallback-y in nature I've decided to drop this optimization,
instead of just making it optional. If we demonstrate a clear need for
this, supported by benchmark results, we can always add it in again
later as an optional extension.
Other differences compared to Rob's RFC is the above mentioned support
for mapping a dma-buf through facilities provided by the importer.
Which results in mmap support no longer being optional.
Note that this dma-buf mmap patch does _not_ support every possible
insanity an existing subsystem could pull of with mmap: Because it
does not allow to intercept pagefaults and shoot down ptes importing
subsystems can't add some magic of their own at these points (e.g. to
automatically synchronize with outstanding rendering or set up some
special resources). I've done a cursory read through a few mmap
implementions of various subsytems and I'm hopeful that we can avoid
this (and the complexity it'd bring with it).
Additonally I've extended the documentation a bit to explain the hows
and whys of this mmap extension.
In case we ever want to add support for explicitly cache maneged
userspace mmap with a prepare/finish ioctl pair, we could specify that
userspace needs to mmap a different part of the dma_buf, e.g. the
range starting at dma_buf->size up to dma_buf->size*2. This works
because the size of a dma_buf is invariant over it's lifetime. The
exporter would obviously need to fall back to coherent mappings for
both ranges if a legacy clients maps the coherent range and the
architecture cannot suppor conflicting caching policies. Also, this
would obviously be optional and userspace needs to be able to fall
back to coherent mappings.
v2:
- Spelling fixes from Rob Clark.
- Compile fix for !DMA_BUF from Rob Clark.
- Extend commit message to explain how explicitly cache managed mmap
support could be added later.
- Extend the documentation with implementations notes for exporters
that need to manually fake coherency.
v3:
- dma_buf pointer initialization goof-up noticed by Rebecca Schultz
Zavin.
