In order to improve consistency and usability in cgroup stat accounting,
we would like to support the root cgroup's io.stat.
Since the root cgroup has processes doing io even if the system has no
explicitly created cgroups, we need to be careful to avoid overhead in
that case. For that reason, the rstat algorithms don't handle the root
cgroup, so just turning the file on wouldn't give correct statistics.
To get around this, we simulate flushing the iostat struct by filling it
out directly from global disk stats. The result is a root cgroup io.stat
file consistent with both /proc/diskstats and io.stat.
Note that in order to collect the disk stats, we needed to iterate over
devices. To facilitate that, we had to change the linkage of a disk_type
to external so that it can be used from blk-cgroup.c to iterate over
disks.

TCR_EL1.TxSZ, which controls the VA space size, is configured by a
single kernel image to support either 48-bit or 52-bit VA space.
If the ARMv8.2-LVA optional feature is present and we are running
with a 64KB page size, then it is possible to use 52-bits of address
space for both userspace and kernel addresses. However, any kernel
binary that supports 52-bit must also be able to fall back to 48-bit
at early boot time if the hardware feature is not present.
Since TCR_EL1.T1SZ indicates the size of the memory region addressed by
TTBR1_EL1, export the same in vmcoreinfo. User-space utilities like
makedumpfile and crash-utility need to read this value from vmcoreinfo
for determining if a virtual address lies in the linear map range.
While at it also add documentation for TCR_EL1.T1SZ variable being

Right now user-space tools like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' need to rely
on a best-guess method of determining value of 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS'
supported by underlying kernel.
This value is used in user-space code to calculate the bit-space
required to store a section for SPARESMEM (similar to the existing
calculation method used in the kernel implementation):
#define SECTIONS_SHIFT (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - SECTION_SIZE_BITS)
Now, regressions have been reported in user-space utilities
like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' on arm64, with the recently added
kernel support for 52-bit physical address space, as there is
no clear method of determining this value in user-space
(other than reading kernel CONFIG flags).
As per suggestion from makedumpfile maintainer (Kazu), it makes more
sense to append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo in the core code itself
rather than in arch-specific code, so that the user-space code for other
archs can also benefit from this addition to the vmcoreinfo and use it
as a standard way of determining 'SECTIONS_SHIFT' value in user-land.
A reference 'makedumpfile' implementation which reads the
'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' value from vmcoreinfo in a arch-independent fashion
is available here:
While at it also update vmcoreinfo documentation for 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS'
variable being added to vmcoreinfo.
'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' defines the maximum supported physical address
space memory.

Currently, the only way to specify the default CPUfreq governor is
via Kconfig options, which suits users who can build the kernel
themselves perfectly.
However, for those who use a distro-like kernel (such as Android,
with the Generic Kernel Image project), the only way to use a
non-default governor is to boot to userspace, and to then switch
using the sysfs interface. Being able to specify the default governor
on the command line, like is the case for cpuidle, would allow those
users to specify their governor of choice earlier on, and to simplify
the userspace boot procedure slighlty.
To support this use-case, add a kernel command line parameter
allowing the default governor for CPUfreq to be specified, which
takes precedence over the built-in default.
This implementation has one notable limitation: the default governor
must be registered before the driver. This is solved for builtin
governors and drivers using appropriate *_initcall() functions. And
in the modular case, this must be reflected as a constraint on the
module loading order.

Currently using attribute "energy_performance_preference", user space can
write one of the four per-defined preference string. These preference
strings gets mapped to a hard-coded Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) or
Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob.
These four values are supposed to cover broad spectrum of use cases, but
are not uniformly distributed in the range. There are number of cases,
where this is not enough. For example:
Suppose user wants more performance when connected to AC. Instead of using
default "balance performance", the "performance" setting can be used. This
changes EPP value from 0x80 to 0x00. But setting EPP to 0, results in
electrical and thermal issues on some platforms. This results in
aggressive throttling, which causes a drop in performance. But some value
between 0x80 and 0x00 results in better performance. But that value can't
be fixed as the power curve is not linear. In some cases just changing EPP
from 0x80 to 0x75 is enough to get significant performance gain.
Similarly on battery the default "balance_performance" mode can be
aggressive in power consumption. But picking up the next choice
"balance power" results in too much loss of performance, which results in
bad user experience in use cases like "Google Hangout". It was observed
that some value between these two EPP is optimal.
This change allows fine grain EPP tuning for platform like Chromebook or
for users who wants to fine tune power and performance.
Here based on the product and use cases, different EPP values can be set.
This change is similar to the change done for:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/power/energy_perf_bias
where user has choice to write a predefined string or raw value.
The change itself is trivial. When user preference doesn't match
predefined string preferences and value is an unsigned integer and in
range, use that value for EPP. When the EPP feature is not present
writing raw value is not supported.

By default intel_pstate the driver disables energy efficiency by setting
MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL bit 19 for Kaby Lake desktop CPU model in HWP mode.
This CPU model is also shared by Coffee Lake desktop CPUs. This allows
these systems to reach maximum possible frequency. But this adds power
penalty, which some customers don't want. They want some way to enable/
disable dynamically.
So, add an additional attribute "energy_efficiency" under
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ for these CPU models. This allows
to read and write bit 19 ("Disable Energy Efficiency Optimization") in
the MSR IA32_POWER_CTL.
This attribute is present in both HWP and non-HWP mode as this has an
effect in both modes. Refer to Intel Software Developer's manual for
details.
The scope of this bit is package wide. Also these systems are single
package systems. So read/write MSR on the current CPU is enough.
The energy efficiency (EE) bit setting needs to be preserved during
suspend/resume and CPU offline/online operation. To do this:
- Restoring the EE setting from the cpufreq resume() callback, if there
is change from the system default.
- By default, don't disable EE from cpufreq init() callback for matching
CPU models. Since the scope is package wide and is a single package
system, move the disable EE calls from init() callback to
intel_pstate_init() function, which is called only once.

In order to reduce the dynamic need for pages in kfree_rcu(),
pre-allocate a configurable number of pages per CPU and link
them in a list. When kfree_rcu() reclaims objects, the object's
container page is cached into a list instead of being released
to the low-level page allocator.
Such an approach provides O(1) access to free pages while also
reducing the number of requests to the page allocator. It also
makes the kfree_rcu() code to have free pages available during
a low memory condition.
A read-only sysfs parameter (rcu_min_cached_objs) reflects the

Since commit 3917c80280 ("thp: change CoW semantics for anon-THP"),
THP CoW page fault is rewritten. Now it just splits pmd then fallback
to base page fault, it doesn't try to allocate THP anymore. So it is no
longer counted in THP_FAULT_ALLOC.
Remove the obsolete statement in documentation about THP CoW allocation
to avoid confusion.
