Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the majority of changes go to the cpufreq subsystem (and to
the intel_pstate driver in particular) and there are some updates in
the generic power domains framework, cpuidle, tools and a couple of
other places.
One thing worth mentioning is that the intel_pstate's sysfs interface
has been reworked to be more consistent with the general expectations
of the cpufreq core and less confusing, hopefully for the better.
Also, we have a new cpufreq driver for Tegra186 and new hardware
support in intel_pstata and the Mediatek cpufreq driver.
Apart from that, the AnalyzeSuspend utility for system suspend
profiling gets a companion called AnalyzeBoot for the analogous
profiling of system boot and they both go into one place under
tools/power/pm-graph/.
The rest is mostly fixes, cleanups and code reorganization.
Specifics:
- Rework the intel_pstate driver's sysfs interface to make it more
straightforward and more intuitive (Rafael Wysocki).

(hardware-managed P-states) to the kernel in all operation modes

live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.

device.
- A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.
- A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
more than a decade.
- Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.
- blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
marked experimental for now.
- Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
IO.

The only difference between ->run_work and ->delay_work, is that
the latter is used to defer running a queue. This is done by
marking the queue stopped, and scheduling ->delay_work to run
sometime in the future. While the queue is stopped, direct runs
or runs through ->run_work will not run the queue.
If we combine the handlers, then we need to handle two things:
1) If a delayed/stopped run is scheduled, then we should not run
the queue before that has been completed.
2) If a queue is delayed/stopped, the handler needs to restart
the queue. Normally a run of a queue with the stopped bit set
would be a no-op.
Case 1 is handled by modifying a currently pending queue run
to the deadline set by the caller of blk_mq_delay_queue().
Subsequent attempts to queue a queue run will find the work
item already pending, and direct runs will see a stopped queue
as before.
Case 2 is handled by adding a new bit, BLK_MQ_S_START_ON_RUN,
that tells the work handler that it should clear a stopped
queue and run the handler.

fix nfs O_DIRECT advancing iov_iter too much
p9_client_readdir() fix
orangefs_bufmap_copy_from_iovec(): fix EFAULT handling
The comment asserting that the value of struct statx_timestamp.tv_nsec
must be negative when statx_timestamp.tv_sec is negative, is wrong, as
could be seen from the following example:
#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64
#include <assert.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <asm/unistd.h>
#include <linux/stat.h>
int main(void)
{
static const struct timespec ts[2] = {
{ .tv_nsec = UTIME_OMIT },
{ .tv_sec = -2, .tv_nsec = 42 }
};
assert(utimensat(AT_FDCWD, ".", ts, 0) == 0);
struct stat st;
assert(stat(".", &st) == 0);
printf("st_mtim.tv_sec = %lld, st_mtim.tv_nsec = %lu\n",
(long long) st.st_mtim.tv_sec,
(unsigned long) st.st_mtim.tv_nsec);
struct statx stx;
assert(syscall(__NR_statx, AT_FDCWD, ".", 0, 0, &stx) == 0);
printf("stx_mtime.tv_sec = %lld, stx_mtime.tv_nsec = %lu\n",
(long long) stx.stx_mtime.tv_sec,
(unsigned long) stx.stx_mtime.tv_nsec);
return 0;
}
It expectedly prints:
st_mtim.tv_sec = -2, st_mtim.tv_nsec = 42
stx_mtime.tv_sec = -2, stx_mtime.tv_nsec = 42
The more generic comment asserting that the value of struct
statx_timestamp.tv_nsec might be negative is confusing to say the least.
It contradicts both the struct stat.st_[acm]time_nsec tradition and
struct timespec.tv_nsec requirements in utimensat syscall.
If statx syscall ever returns a stx_[acm]time containing a negative
tv_nsec that cannot be passed unmodified to utimensat syscall,
it will cause an immense confusion.
Fix this source of confusion by changing the type of struct
statx_timestamp.tv_nsec from __s32 to __u32.

During power-up cycle the PHY do auto-negotiation, generate interrupt and set
auto-negotiation complete flag. Interrupt is handled by PHY state machine but
doesn't update link state because PHY is in PHY_READY state. After some time
MAC bring up, start and request PHY to do auto-negotiation. If there are no new

PHY continue to stay in auto-negotiation complete state and doesn't fire

Commit 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk")
introduced blk_integrity_revalidate(), which seems to assume ownership
of the stable pages flag and unilaterally clears it if no blk_integrity
profile is registered:
if (bi->profile)
disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities |=
BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;
else
disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities &=
~BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;
It's called from revalidate_disk() and rescan_partitions(), making it
impossible to enable stable pages for drivers that support partitions
and don't use blk_integrity: while the call in revalidate_disk() can be
trivially worked around (see zram, which doesn't support partitions and
hence gets away with zram_revalidate_disk()), rescan_partitions() can
be triggered from userspace at any time. This breaks rbd, where the
ceph messenger is responsible for generating/verifying CRCs.
Since blk_integrity_{un,}register() "must" be used for (un)registering
the integrity profile with the block layer, move BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
setting there. This way drivers that call blk_integrity_register() and
use integrity infrastructure won't interfere with drivers that don't
but still want stable pages.

Andrey's syzkaller program passes rtmsg.rtmsg_flags with the RTF_PCPU bit
set. Flags passed to the kernel are blindly copied to the allocated
rt6_info by ip6_route_info_create making a newly inserted route appear
as though it is a per-cpu route. ip6_rt_cache_alloc sees the flag set
and expects rt->dst.from to be set - which it is not since it is not
really a per-cpu copy. The subsequent call to __ip6_dst_alloc then
generates the fault.
Fix by checking for the flag and failing with EINVAL.

target transport:
----------------------
There are cases when there is a need to abort in-progress target
operations (writedata) so that controller termination or errors can
clean up. That can't happen currently as the abort is another target
op type, so it can't be used till the running one finishes (and it may
not). Solve by removing the abort op type and creating a separate
downcall from the transport to the lldd to request an io to be aborted.
The transport will abort ios on queue teardown or io errors. In general
the transport tries to call the lldd abort only when the io state is
idle. Meaning: ops that transmit data (readdata or rsp) will always
finish their transmit (or the lldd will see a state on the
link or initiator port that fails the transmit) and the done call for
the operation will occur. The transport will wait for the op done
upcall before calling the abort function, and as the io is idle, the
io can be cleaned up immediately after the abort call; Similarly, ios
that are not waiting for data or transmitting data must be in the nvmet
layer being processed. The transport will wait for the nvmet layer
completion before calling the abort function, and as the io is idle,
the io can be cleaned up immediately after the abort call; As for ops
that are waiting for data (writedata), they may be outstanding
indefinitely if the lldd doesn't see a condition where the initiatior
port or link is bad. In those cases, the transport will call the abort
function and wait for the lldd's op done upcall for the operation, where
it will then clean up the io.
Additionally, if a lldd receives an ABTS and matches it to an outstanding
request in the transport, A new new transport upcall was created to abort
the outstanding request in the transport. The transport expects any
outstanding op call (readdata or writedata) will completed by the lldd and
the operation upcall made. The transport doesn't act on the reported
abort (e.g. clean up the io) until an op done upcall occurs, a new op is
attempted, or the nvmet layer completes the io processing.
fcloop:
----------------------
Updated to support the new target apis.
On fcp io aborts from the initiator, the loopback context is updated to
NULL out the half that has completed. The initiator side is immediately
called after the abort request with an io completion (abort status).
On fcp io aborts from the target, the io is stopped and the initiator side
sees it as an aborted io. Target side ops, perhaps in progress while the
initiator side is done, continue but noop the data movement as there's no
structure on the initiator side to reference.
patch also contains:
----------------------
Revised lpfc to support the new abort api

With the advent of the opdone calls changing context, the lldd can no
longer assume that once the op->done call returns for RSP operations
that the request struct is no longer being accessed.
As such, revise the lldd api for a req_release callback that the
transport will call when the job is complete. This will also be used
with abort cases.

Two new feature flags were added to control whether upcalls to the
transport result in context switches or stay in the calling context.
NVMET_FCTGTFEAT_CMD_IN_ISR:
By default, if the flag is not set, the transport assumes the
lldd is in a non-isr context and in the cpu context it should be
for the io queue. As such, the cmd handler is called directly in the
calling context.
If the flag is set, indicating the upcall is an isr context, the
transport mandates a transition to a workqueue. The workqueue assigned
to the queue is used for the context.
NVMET_FCTGTFEAT_OPDONE_IN_ISR
By default, if the flag is not set, the transport assumes the
lldd is in a non-isr context and in the cpu context it should be
for the io queue. As such, the fcp operation done callback is called
directly in the calling context.
If the flag is set, indicating the upcall is an isr context, the

This change provides a mechanism to reduce the number of MMIO doorbell
writes for the NVMe driver. When running in a virtualized environment
like QEMU, the cost of an MMIO is quite hefy here. The main idea for
the patch is provide the device two memory location locations:
1) to store the doorbell values so they can be lookup without the doorbell
MMIO write
2) to store an event index.
I believe the doorbell value is obvious, the event index not so much.
Similar to the virtio specification, the virtual device can tell the
driver (guest OS) not to write MMIO unless you are writing past this
value.
FYI: doorbell values are written by the nvme driver (guest OS) and the
event index is written by the virtual device (host OS).
The patch implements a new admin command that will communicate where
these two memory locations reside. If the command fails, the nvme
driver will work as before without any optimizations.

Add complete support for full hierarchical scheduling, with a cgroups
interface. Full hierarchical scheduling is implemented through the
'entity' abstraction: both bfq_queues, i.e., the internal BFQ queues
associated with processes, and groups are represented in general by
entities. Given the bfq_queues associated with the processes belonging
to a given group, the entities representing these queues are sons of
the entity representing the group. At higher levels, if a group, say
G, contains other groups, then the entity representing G is the parent
entity of the entities representing the groups in G.
Hierarchical scheduling is performed as follows: if the timestamps of
a leaf entity (i.e., of a bfq_queue) change, and such a change lets
the entity become the next-to-serve entity for its parent entity, then
the timestamps of the parent entity are recomputed as a function of
the budget of its new next-to-serve leaf entity. If the parent entity
belongs, in its turn, to a group, and its new timestamps let it become
the next-to-serve for its parent entity, then the timestamps of the
latter parent entity are recomputed as well, and so on. When a new
bfq_queue must be set in service, the reverse path is followed: the
next-to-serve highest-level entity is chosen, then its next-to-serve
child entity, and so on, until the next-to-serve leaf entity is
reached, and the bfq_queue that this entity represents is set in
service.
Writeback is accounted for on a per-group basis, i.e., for each group,
the async I/O requests of the processes of the group are enqueued in a
distinct bfq_queue, and the entity associated with this queue is a
child of the entity associated with the group.
Weights can be assigned explicitly to groups and processes through the
cgroups interface, differently from what happens, for single
processes, if the cgroups interface is not used (as explained in the
description of the previous patch). In particular, since each node has
a full scheduler, each group can be assigned its own weight.

Certain 64-bit systems (e.g. Amlogic Meson GX) require buffers to be
used for DMA to be 8-byte-aligned. struct sdio_func has an embedded
small DMA buffer not meeting this requirement.
When testing switching to descriptor chain mode in meson-gx driver
SDIO is broken therefore. Fix this by allocating the small DMA buffer
separately as kmalloc ensures that the returned memory area is
properly aligned for every basic data type.
