9a46ad6d6d smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic similar to smp_call_function_single()
I'm testing swapout workload in a two-socket Xeon machine.  The workload
has 10 threads, each thread sequentially accesses separate memory
region.  TLB flush overhead is very big in the workload.  For each page,
page reclaim need move it from active lru list and then unmap it.  Both
need a TLB flush.  And this is a multthread workload, TLB flush happens
in 10 CPUs.  In X86, TLB flush uses generic smp_call)function.  So this
workload stress smp_call_function_many heavily.

Without patch, perf shows:
+  24.49%  [k] generic_smp_call_function_interrupt
-  21.72%  [k] _raw_spin_lock
   - _raw_spin_lock
      + 79.80% __page_check_address
      + 6.42% generic_smp_call_function_interrupt
      + 3.31% get_swap_page
      + 2.37% free_pcppages_bulk
      + 1.75% handle_pte_fault
      + 1.54% put_super
      + 1.41% grab_super_passive
      + 1.36% __swap_duplicate
      + 0.68% blk_flush_plug_list
      + 0.62% swap_info_get
+   6.55%  [k] flush_tlb_func
+   6.46%  [k] smp_call_function_many
+   5.09%  [k] call_function_interrupt
+   4.75%  [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys
+   2.18%  [k] find_next_bit

swapout throughput is around 1300M/s.

With the patch, perf shows:
-  27.23%  [k] _raw_spin_lock
   - _raw_spin_lock
      + 80.53% __page_check_address
      + 8.39% generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt
      + 2.44% get_swap_page
      + 1.76% free_pcppages_bulk
      + 1.40% handle_pte_fault
      + 1.15% __swap_duplicate
      + 1.05% put_super
      + 0.98% grab_super_passive
      + 0.86% blk_flush_plug_list
      + 0.57% swap_info_get
+   8.25%  [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys
+   7.55%  [k] call_function_interrupt
+   7.47%  [k] smp_call_function_many
+   7.25%  [k] flush_tlb_func
+   3.81%  [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
+   3.78%  [k] generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt

swapout throughput is around 1400M/s.  So there is around a 7%
improvement, and total cpu utilization doesn't change.

Without the patch, cfd_data is shared by all CPUs.
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt does read/write cfd_data several times
which will create a lot of cache ping-pong.  With the patch, the data
becomes per-cpu.  The ping-pong is avoided.  And from the perf data, this
doesn't make call_single_queue lock contend.

Next step is to remove generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() from arch
code.

b274776c54 arm-soc: cleanups
A large number of cleanups, all over the platforms. This is dominated
 largely by the Samsung platforms (s3c, s5p, exynos) and a few of the
 others moving code out of arch/arm into more appropriate subsystems.
 The clocksource and irqchip drivers are now abstracted to the point
 where platforms that are already cleaned up do not need to even specify
 the driver they use, it can all get configured from the device tree
 as we do for normal device drivers. The clocksource changes basically
 touch every single platform in the process.
 
 We further clean up the use of platform specific header files here,
 with the goal of turning more of the platforms over to being
 "multiplatform" enabled, which implies that they cannot expose
 their headers to architecture independent code any more.
 
 It is expected that no functional changes are part of the cleanup.
 The overall reduction in total code lines is mostly the result of
 removing broken and obsolete code.

Pull networking update from David Miller:

 1) Checkpoint/restarted TCP sockets now can properly propagate the TCP
    timestamp offset.  From Andrey Vagin.

 2) VMWARE VM VSOCK layer, from Andy King.

 3) Much improved support for virtual functions and SR-IOV in bnx2x,
    from Ariel ELior.

 4) All protocols on ipv4 and ipv6 are now network namespace aware, and
    all the compatability checks for initial-namespace-only protocols is
    removed.  Thanks to Tom Parkin for helping deal with the last major
    holdout, L2TP.

 5) IPV6 support in netpoll and network namespace support in pktgen,
    from Cong Wang.

 6) Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP) and Multiple VLAN Registration
    Protocol (MVRP) support, from David Ward.

 7) Compute packet lengths more accurately in the packet scheduler, from
    Eric Dumazet.

 8) Use per-task page fragment allocator in skb_append_datato_frags(),
    also from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Add support for connection tracking labels in netfilter, from
    Florian Westphal.

10) Fix default multicast group joining on ipv6, and add anti-spoofing
    checks to 6to4 and 6rd.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

11) Make ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation memory limits more reasonable in modern
    times, rearrange inet frag datastructures for better cacheline
    locality, and move more operations outside of locking.  From Jesper
    Dangaard Brouer.

12) Instead of strict master <--> slave relationships, allow arbitrary
    scenerios with "upper device lists".  From Jiri Pirko.

13) Improve rate limiting accuracy in TBF and act_police, also from Jiri
    Pirko.

14) Add a BPF filter netfilter match target, from Willem de Bruijn.

15) Orphan and delete a bunch of pre-historic networking drivers from
    Paul Gortmaker.

16) Add TSO support for GRE tunnels, from Pravin B SHelar.  Although
    this still needs some minor bug fixing before it's %100 correct in
    all cases.

17) Handle unresolved IPSEC states like ARP, with a resolution packet
    queue.  From Steffen Klassert.

18) Remove TCP Appropriate Byte Count support (ABC), from Stephen
    Hemminger.  This was long overdue.

19) Support SO_REUSEPORT, from Tom Herbert.

20) Allow locking a socket BPF filter, so that it cannot change after a
    process drops capabilities.

21) Add VLAN filtering to bridge, from Vlad Yasevich.

22) Bring ipv6 on-par with ipv4 and do not cache neighbour entries in
    the ipv6 routes, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki.

Pull cpuset changes from Tejun Heo:

 - Synchornization has seen a lot of changes with focus on decoupling
   cpuset synchronization from cgroup internal locking.

   After this change, there only remain a couple of mostly trivial
   dependencies on cgroup_lock outside cgroup core proper.  cgroup_lock
   is scheduled to be unexported in this devel cycle.

   This will finally remove the fragile locking order around cgroup
   (cgroup locking wants to / should be one of the outermost but yet has
   been acquired from deep inside individual controllers).

 - At this point, Li is most knowlegeable with cpuset and taking over
   the maintainership of cpuset.

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of reorganization is going on mostly to prepare for worker pools
  with custom attributes so that workqueue can replace custom pool
  implementations in places including writeback and btrfs and make CPU
  assignment in crypto more flexible.

  workqueue evolved from purely per-cpu design and implementation, so
  there are a lot of assumptions regarding being bound to CPUs and even
  unbound workqueues are implemented as an extension of the model -
  workqueues running on the special unbound CPU.  Bulk of changes this
  round are about promoting worker_pools as the top level abstraction
  replacing global_cwq (global cpu workqueue).  At this point, I'm
  fairly confident about getting custom worker pools working pretty soon
  and ready for the next merge window.

  Lai's patches are replacing the convoluted mb() dancing workqueue has
  been doing with much simpler mechanism which only depends on
  assignment atomicity of long.  For details, please read the commit
  message of 0b3dae68ac ("workqueue: simplify is-work-item-queued-here
  test").  While the change ends up adding one pointer to struct
  delayed_work, the inflation in percentage is less than five percent
  and it decouples delayed_work logic a lot more cleaner from usual work
  handling, removes the unusual memory barrier dancing, and allows for
  further simplification, so I think the trade-off is acceptable.

  There will be two more workqueue related pull requests and there are
  some shared commits among them.  I'll write further pull requests
  assuming this pull request is pulled first."

Pull workqueue [delayed_]work_pending() cleanups from Tejun Heo:
 "This is part of on-going cleanups to remove / minimize usages of
  workqueue interfaces which are deprecated and/or misleading.

  This round drops a number of usages of [delayed_]work_pending(), which
  are dangerous as they lack any form of synchronization and thus often
  lead to buggy / unnecessary code.  There are a couple legitimate use
  cases in kernel.  Hopefully, they can be converted and
  [delayed_]work_pending() can be removed completely.  Even if not,
  removing most of misuses should make it more difficult to find
  examples of misuses and thus slow down growth of them.

 "Main changes:

   - Multiple MSI support added to the APIC, PCI and AHCI code - acked

     Roedel:

     These patches move all interrupt remapping specific checks out of

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:

  Main kernel side changes:

   - Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
     Oleg Nesterov.

   - Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
     done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.

   - tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
     improvements.

   - Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
     Tony Luck.

   - Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
     Shin.

   - This tracing commit:

        tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events

     changes the ABI.  All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
     seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
     libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...

  Main tooling side changes:

   - Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:

     To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording.  And
     then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
     and prints them together if --group option is provided.  You can
     use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:

        $ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
        [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]

        $ perf evlist --group
        {ref-cycles,cycles}

     With this example, default perf report will show you each event
     separately.

     You can use --group option to enable event group view:

        $ perf report --group
        ...

810cbee4fa cgroup: fix cgroup_rmdir() vs close(eventfd) race
commit 205a872bd6 ("cgroup: fix lockdep
warning for event_control") solved a deadlock by introducing a new
bug.

Move cgrp->event_list to a temporary list doesn't mean you can traverse
this list locklessly, because at the same time cgroup_event_wake() can
be called and remove the event from the list. The result of this race
is disastrous.

We adopt the way how kvm irqfd code implements race-free event removal,
which is now described in the comments in cgroup_event_wake().

v3:
- call eventfd_signal() no matter it's eventfd close or cgroup removal
that removes the cgroup event.

rename() will change dentry->d_name. The result of this race can

a stale pointer because rename() will re-allocate memory to hold

It's safe in the protection of dentry->d_lock.

pools which don't have anything to do with CPUs.  The workqueue code

isn't likely to hurt much additionally.  Let's replace 'cpu' with
'pool' so that it reflects the current design.

1dd638149f workqueue: fix is_chained_work() regression
c9e7cf273f ("workqueue: move busy_hash from global_cwq to

get_gcwq() inside for_each_gcwq_cpu() while removing get_gcwq().

As cwq might not exist for all possible workqueue CPUs, @cwq can be
NULL and the following cwq deferences can lead to oops.

Fix it by using for_each_cwq_cpu() instead, which is the better one to
use anyway as we only need to check pools that the wq is associated
with.

5d1d9a29bc clockevents: Fix generic broadcast for FEAT_C3STOP
Commit 12ad100046: "clockevents: Add generic timer broadcast function"
made tick_device_uses_broadcast set up the generic broadcast function
for dummy devices (where !tick_device_is_functional(dev)), but neglected
to set up the broadcast function for devices that stop in low power
states (with the CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP flag).

When these devices enter low power states they will not have the generic
broadcast function assigned, and will bring down the system when an
attempt is made to broadcast to them.

This patch ensures that the broadcast function is also assigned for
devices which require broadcast in low power states.

957d1282bb suspend: enable freeze timeout configuration through sys
At present, the value of timeout for freezing is 20s, which is
meaningless in case that one thread is frozen with mutex locked
and another thread is trying to lock the mutex, as this time of
freezing will fail unavoidably.
And if there is no new wakeup event registered, the system will
waste at most 20s for such meaningless trying of freezing.

With this patch, the value of timeout can be configured to smaller
value, so such meaningless trying of freezing will be aborted in
earlier time, and later freezing can be also triggered in earlier
time. And more power will be saved.
In normal case on mobile phone, it costs real little time to freeze
processes. On some platform, it only costs about 20ms to freeze
user space processes and 10ms to freeze kernel freezable threads.

7e73c5ae6e PM: Introduce suspend state PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state is a general state that
does not need any platform specific support, it equals
frozen processes + suspended devices + idle processors.

Compared with PM_SUSPEND_MEMORY,
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves less power
because the system is still in a running state.
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE has less resume latency because it does not
touch BIOS, and the processors are in idle state.

Compared with RTPM/idle,
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves more power as
1. the processor has longer sleep time because processes are frozen.
   The deeper c-state the processor supports, more power saving we can get.
2. PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE uses system suspend code path, thus we can get
   more power saving from the devices that does not have good RTPM support.

This state is useful for
1) platforms that do not have STR, or have a broken STR.
2) platforms that have an extremely low power idle state,
   which can be used to replace STR.

The following describes how PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state works.
1. echo freeze > /sys/power/state
2. the processes are frozen.
3. all the devices are suspended.
4. all the processors are blocked by a wait queue
5. all the processors idles and enters (Deep) c-state.
6. an interrupt fires.
7. a processor is woken up and handles the irq.
8. if it is a general event,
   a) the irq handler runs and quites.
   b) goto step 4.
9. if it is a real wake event, say, power button pressing, keyboard touch, mouse moving,
   a) the irq handler runs and activate the wakeup source
   b) wakeup_source_activate() notifies the wait queue.
   c) system starts resuming from PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE
10. all the devices are resumed.
11. all the processes are unfrozen.
12. system is back to working.

Known Issue:
The wakeup of this new PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state may behave differently
from the previous suspend state.
Take ACPI platform for example, there are some GPEs that only enabled
when the system is in sleep state, to wake the system backk from S3/S4.
But we are not touching these GPEs during transition to PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE.
This means we may lose some wake event.
But on the other hand, as we do not disable all the Interrupts during
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE, we may get some extra "wakeup" Interrupts, that are
not available for S3/S4.

The patches has been tested on an old Sony laptop, and here are the results:

Average Power:
1. RPTM/idle for half an hour:
   14.8W, 12.6W, 14.1W, 12.5W, 14.4W, 13.2W, 12.9W
2. Freeze for half an hour:
   11W, 10.4W, 9.4W, 11.3W 10.5W
3. RTPM/idle for three hours:
   11.6W
4. Freeze for three hours:
   10W
5. Suspend to Memory:
   0.5~0.9W

Average Resume Latency:
1. RTPM/idle with a black screen: (From pressing keyboard to screen back)
   Less than 0.2s
2. Freeze: (From pressing power button to screen back)
   2.50s
3. Suspend to Memory: (From pressing power button to screen back)
   4.33s

>From the results, we can see that all the platforms should benefit from
this patch, even if it does not have Low Power S0.
