[ Upstream commit 44531ba45dbf3c23cc7ae0934ec9b33ef340ac56 ]
When configuring the HW timers block we should set the number of CIDs
up until the last CID that require timers, instead of only those CIDs
whose protocol needs timers support.
Today, the protocols that require HW timers' support have their CIDs
before any other protocol, but that would change in future [when we
add iWARP support].

When qedr is enabled, qed would try dividing the msi-x vectors between
L2 and RoCE, starting with L2 and providing it with sufficient vectors
for its queues.
Problem is qed would also do that for storage partitions, and as those
don't need queues it would lead qed to award those partitions with 0
msi-x vectors, causing them to believe theye're using INTa and
preventing them from operating.

The link information exists only on the leading hwfn,
but some of its derivatives [e.g., min/max rate] need to
be configured for each hwfn.
When re-basing the VF link view, use the leading hwfn
information as basis for all existing hwfns to allow
said configurations to stick.

Subject: pwm: tegra: Increase precision in PWM rate calculation
From: Laxman Dewangan <ldewangan(a)nvidia.com>
[ Upstream commit 250b76f43f57d578ebff5e7211eb2c73aa5cd6ca ]
The rate of the PWM calculated as follows:
hz = NSEC_PER_SEC / period_ns;
rate = (rate + (hz / 2)) / hz;
This has the precision loss in lower PWM rate.
Change this to have more precision as:
hz = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST_ULL(NSEC_PER_SEC * 100, period_ns);
rate = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(rate * 100, hz)
Example:
1. period_ns = 16672000, PWM clock rate is 200 KHz.
Based on old formula
hz = NSEC_PER_SEC / period_ns
= 1000000000ul/16672000
= 59 (59.98)
rate = (200K + 59/2)/59 = 3390
Based on new method:
hz = 5998
rate = DIV_ROUND_CLOSE(200000*100, 5998) = 3334
If we measure the PWM signal rate, we will get more accurate
period with rate value of 3334 instead of 3390.
2. period_ns = 16803898, PWM clock rate is 200 KHz.
Based on old formula:
hz = 59, rate = 3390
Based on new formula:
hz = 5951, rate = 3360
The PWM signal rate of 3360 is more near to requested period
than 3333.

Subject: printk: Correctly handle preemption in console_unlock()
From: Petr Mladek <pmladek(a)suse.com>
[ Upstream commit 257ab443118bffc7fdcef38f49cf59be68a3e362 ]
Some console drivers code calls console_conditional_schedule()
that looks at @console_may_schedule. The value must be cleared
when the drivers are called from console_unlock() with
interrupts disabled. But rescheduling is fine when the same
code is called, for example, from tty operations where the
console semaphore is taken via console_lock().
This is why @console_may_schedule is cleared before calling console
drivers. The original value is stored to decide if we could sleep
between lines.
Now, @console_may_schedule is not cleared when we call
console_trylock() and jump back to the "again" goto label.
This has become a problem, since the commit 6b97a20d3a7909daa066
("printk: set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers").
@console_may_schedule might get enabled now.
There is also the opposite problem. console_lock() can be called
only from preemptive context. It can always enable scheduling in
the console code. But console_trylock() is not able to detect it
when CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is disabled. Therefore we should use the
original @console_may_schedule value after re-acquiring
the console semaphore in console_unlock().
This patch solves both problems by moving the "again" goto label.
Alternative solution was to clear and restore the value around
call_console_drivers(). Then console_conditional_schedule() could
be used also inside console_unlock(). But there was a potential race
with console_flush_on_panic() as reported by Sergey Senozhatsky.
That function should be called only where there is only one CPU
and with interrupts disabled. But better be on the safe side
because stopping CPUs might fail.
Fixes: 6b97a20d3a7909 ("printk: set may_schedule for some of console_trylock() callers")

setup_initial_memory_limit() is called from early_init_devtree(), which
runs prior to feature patching. If the kernel is built with CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y

Subject: powerpc/modules: Don't try to restore r2 after a sibling call
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe(a)redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit b9eab08d012fa093947b230f9a87257c27fb829b ]
When attempting to load a livepatch module, I got the following error:
module_64: patch_module: Expect noop after relocate, got 3c820000
The error was triggered by the following code in
unregister_netdevice_queue():
14c: 00 00 00 48 b 14c <unregister_netdevice_queue+0x14c>
14c: R_PPC64_REL24 net_set_todo
150: 00 00 82 3c addis r4,r2,0
GCC didn't insert a nop after the branch to net_set_todo() because it's
a sibling call, so it never returns. The nop isn't needed after the
branch in that case.

[ Upstream commit a525108cf1cc14651602d678da38fa627a76a724 ]
Without this if firmware reports 1MB page size support we will crash
trying to use 1MB as hugetlb page size.

Subject: powerpc: Avoid taking a data miss on every userspace instruction miss
From: Anton Blanchard <anton(a)samba.org>
[ Upstream commit a7a9dcd882a67b68568868b988289fce5ffd8419 ]
Early on in do_page_fault() we call store_updates_sp(), regardless of
the type of exception. For an instruction miss this doesn't make
sense, because we only use this information to detect if a data miss
is the result of a stack expansion instruction or not.
Worse still, it results in a data miss within every userspace
instruction miss handler, because we try and load the very instruction
we are about to install a pte for!
A simple exec microbenchmark runs 6% faster on POWER8 with this fix:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
unsigned long left = atol(argv[1]);
char leftstr[16];
if (left-- == 0)
return 0;
sprintf(leftstr, "%ld", left);
execlp(argv[0], argv[0], leftstr, NULL);
perror("exec failed\n");
return 0;
}
Pass the number of iterations on the command line (eg 10000) and time
how long it takes to execute.
