When compiling efivars.c the build fails with:

drivers/firmware/efivars.c: In function ‘efivarfs_get_inode’:

This build error is currently hidden by the fact that the x86
implementation of 'update_mmu_cache_pmd()' is a macro that doesn't use
its last argument, but commit b32967ff101a ("mm: numa: Add THP migration
for the NUMA working set scanning fault case") introduced a call with
the wrong third argument.
In the akpm tree, it causes this build error:
mm/migrate.c: In function 'migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page_put':
mm/migrate.c:1666:2: error: incompatible type for argument 3 of 'update_mmu_cache_pmd'
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:792:20: note: expected 'struct pmd_t *' but argument is of type 'pmd_t'
Fix it.

Git commit 30106c174311b8cfaaa3186c7f6f9c36c62d17da
("x86, hotplug: Support functions for CPU0 online/offline") alters what
the call to smp_store_cpu_info() does. For BSP we should use the
smp_store_boot_cpu_info() and for secondary CPU's the old
variant of smp_store_cpu_info() should be used. This fixes
the regression introduced by said commit.

There is absolutely no reason to crash the kernel when we have a
perfectly good return value already available to use for conveying
failure status.
Let's return an error code instead of crashing the kernel: that sounds
like a much better plan.

This allow us to print out fsnotify details such as watchee inode, device,
mask and optionally a file handle.
For inotify objects if kernel compiled with exportfs support the output
will be

| flags: 02000000
| inotify wd:3 ino:9e7e sdev:800013 mask:800afce ignored_mask:0 fhandle-bytes:8 fhandle-type:1 f_handle:7e9e0000640d1b6d

If kernel compiled without exportfs support, the file handle
won't be provided but inode and device only.

This routine will be used to generate a file handle in fdinfo output for
inotify subsystem, where if no s_export_op present the general
export_encode_fh should be used. Thus add a test if s_export_op present

This patch brings ability to print out auxiliary data associated with
file in procfs interface /proc/pid/fdinfo/fd.
In particular further patches make eventfd, evenpoll, signalfd and
fsnotify to print additional information complete enough to restore
these objects after checkpoint.
To simplify the code we add show_fdinfo callback inside struct
file_operations (as Al and Pavel are proposing).

Add functions to get the requested number of pseudo-random bytes.
The difference from get_random_bytes() is that it generates pseudo-random
numbers by prandom_u32(). It doesn't consume the entropy pool, and the
sequence is reproducible if the same rnd_state is used. So it is suitable
for generating random bytes for testing.

This renames all random32 functions to have 'prandom_' prefix as follows:
void prandom_seed(u32 seed); /* rename from srandom32() */
u32 prandom_u32(void); /* rename from random32() */
void prandom_seed_state(struct rnd_state *state, u64 seed);
/* rename from prandom32_seed() */
u32 prandom_u32_state(struct rnd_state *state);
/* rename from prandom32() */
The purpose of this renaming is to prevent some kernel developers from
assuming that prandom32() and random32() might imply that only
prandom32() was the one using a pseudo-random number generator by
prandom32's "p", and the result may be a very embarassing security
exposure. This concern was expressed by Theodore Ts'o.
And furthermore, I'm going to introduce new functions for getting the
requested number of pseudo-random bytes. If I continue to use both
prandom32 and random32 prefixes for these functions, the confusion
is getting worse.
As a result of this renaming, "prandom_" is the common prefix for
pseudo-random number library.
Currently, srandom32() and random32() are preserved because it is
difficult to rename too many users at once.

This change only affects experimental AoE storage networks.
It modifies the console message about runt packets detected so that the
AoE major and minor addresses of the AoE target that generated the runt
are mentioned.

By default, the aoe driver uses any ethernet interface for AoE, but the
aoe_iflist module parameter provides a convenient way to limit AoE
traffic to a specific list of local network interfaces.
This change allows a list to be specified using the comma character as a
separator. For example,
modprobe aoe aoe_iflist=eth2,eth3
Before, it was inconvenient to get the quoting right in shell scripts
when setting aoe_iflist to have more than one network interface.

With this change, the aoe driver treats the value zero as special for
the aoe_deadsecs module parameter. Normally, this value specifies the
number of seconds during which the driver will continue to attempt
retransmits to an unresponsive AoE target. After aoe_deadsecs has
elapsed, the aoe driver marks the aoe device as "down" and fails all
I/O.
The new meaning of an aoe_deadsecs of zero is for the driver to
retransmit commands indefinitely.

Many AoE targets have four or fewer network ports, but some existing
storage devices have many, and the AoE protocol sets no limit.
This patch allows the use of more than eight remote MAC addresses per AoE
target, while reducing the amount of memory used by the aoe driver in
cases where there are many AoE targets with fewer than eight MAC addresses
each.

This change avoids a race that could result in a NULL pointer derference
following a WARNing from kobject_add_internal, "don't try to register
things with the same name in the same directory."
The problem was found with a test that forgets and discovers an
aoe device in a loop:
while test ! -r /tmp/stop; do
aoe-flush -a
aoe-discover
done
The race was between aoedev_flush taking aoedevs out of the devlist,
allowing a new discovery of the same AoE target to take place before the
driver gets around to calling sysfs_remove_group. Fixing that one
revealed another race between do_open and add_disk, and this patch avoids
that, too.
The fix required some care, because for flushing (forgetting) an aoedev,
some of the steps must be performed under lock and some must be able to
sleep. Also, for discovering a new aoedev, some steps might sleep.
The check for a bad aoedev pointer remains from a time when about half of
this patch was done, and it was possible for the
bdev->bd_disk->private_data to become corrupted. The check should be
removed eventually, but it is not expected to add significant overhead,
occurring in the aoeblk_open routine.

An AoE target can have multiple network ports used for AoE, and in the
aoe driver, those are tracked by the aoetgt struct. These changes allow
the aoe driver to handle network paths, or aoetgts, that are not working
well, compared to the others.
Paths that do not get responses despite the retransmission of AoE
commands are marked as "tainted", and non-tainted paths are preferred.
Meanwhile, the aoe driver attempts to "probe" the tainted path in the
background by issuing reads of LBA 0 that are padded out to full
(possibly jumbo-frame) size. If the probes get responses, then the path
is "redeemed", and its taint is removed.
This mechanism has been shown to be helpful in transparently handling
and recovering from real-world network "brown outs" in ways that the
earlier "shoot the help-needing target in the head" mechanism could not.

The value returned by the static minor device number number allocator is
the real minor number, so it must be multiplied by the supported number
of partitions per aoedev.
Without this fix the support for systems without udev is incomplete, and
the few users of aoe on such systems will have surprising results when
device nodes names do not match the AoE target.

Because the minor_get and related functions use the return values for
errors, the compiler doesn't know that sysminor will always either 1) be
initialized in aoedev_by_aoeaddr by the call to minor_get, or 2) be
unused as the "goto out" is executed.
This patch avoids the compiler warning.

The aoe driver will never be waiting for more than aoe_maxout AoE
commands from a given remote network port on an AoE target. Increasing
the cap increases performance. Users can tighten the setting to reduce
the amount of memory used for handling AoE traffic or the network
bandwidth used for AoE.

Before the aoe driver was an I/O request handler, it was a
make_request-style block driver. Even so, there was a problem where
sysfs expected a request queue to exist, so one was provided in commit
7135a71b19be ("aoe: allocate unused request_queue for sysfs").
During the transition to the request-handler style, a patch was merged
that was based on a driver without the noop queue, and the noop queue
remained in place after the patch was merged, even though a new
functional queue was introduced by the patch, allocated through
blk_init_queue.
The user impact is a memory leak proportional to the number of AoE
targets discovered. This patch removes the memory leak and cleans up
vestiges of the old do-nothing queue from the aoeblk_gdalloc function.

Commit f3b8e07af774 ("aoe: commands in retransmit queue use new
destination on failure") omits the copying of the coarse-grained time
when an AoE command was sent during the failover from one destination
MAC address on the AoE target to another.
The coarse-grained timing is only used when the system time changes or
an unlikely length of time has passed since the sending of the AoE
command. Users will not be impacted unless their system clock is very
inaccurate or something unusual (e.g., 10 GbE link reset) happens during
the period when the aoe driver is handling the failure of a port on the
AoE target. Being effected will mean that an AoE target could be
considered "down" too eagerly.
