Pull two RCU fixes from Paul E. McKenney: " - Complete the work of commit dd56af42bd82 (rcu: Eliminate deadlock between CPU hotplug and expedited grace periods), which was intended to allow synchronize_sched_expedited() to be safely used when holding locks acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers. This commit makes the put_online_cpus() avoid the deadlock instead of just handling the get_online_cpus(). - Complete the work of commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs), which was intended to allow RCU to avoid allocating unneeded kthreads on systems where the firmware says that there are more CPUs than are really present. This commit makes rcu_barrier() aware of the mismatch, so that it doesn't hang waiting for non-existent CPUs. " Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

rcu: Make rcu_barrier() understand about missing rcuo kthreads

2014-10-28T20:24:13Z

Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs) avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have. Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless rcuo kthreads being created. It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies about the number of CPUs. It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system. Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal to invoke rcu_barrier(). So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but to hang indefinitely.

Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui: "Sorry that I missed the merge window as there is a bug found in the last minute, and I have to fix it and wait for the code to be tested in linux-next tree for a few days. Now the buggy patch has been dropped entirely from my next branch. Thus I hope those changes can still be merged in 3.18-rc2 as most of them are platform thermal driver changes. Specifics: - introduce ACPI INT340X thermal drivers. Newer laptops and tablets may have thermal sensors and other devices with thermal control capabilities that are exposed for the OS to use via the ACPI INT340x device objects. Several drivers are introduced to expose the temperature information and cooling ability from these objects to user-space via the normal thermal framework. From: Lu Aaron, Lan Tianyu, Jacob Pan and Zhang Rui. - introduce a new thermal governor, which just uses a hysteresis to switch abruptly on/off a cooling device. This governor can be used to control certain fan devices that can not be throttled but just switched on or off. From: Peter Feuerer. - introduce support for some new thermal interrupt functions on i.MX6SX, in IMX thermal driver. From: Anson, Huang. - introduce tracing support on thermal framework.

Here we go over some highlights: ALSA core: - One major change is the support of nonatomic PCM operations. This allows the trigger and other callbacks to call schedule(), which would be useful for mailbox type communications. Already some drivers (Digigram ones) have been converted to use together with threaded irqs as an example. - Improvement / fixes of DSD PCM format support HD-audio: - Large volume of rewrites are found in Realtek codec driver for converting Dell and HP quirks to generic forms. - Inverted dmic code cleanup from David. - Realtek COEF access has been optimized. - Now HD-audio jack infrastructure allows multiple callbacks, which fixes / simplifies the jack-dependent power controls on STAC/IDT and VIA codecs. - Many additional device-specific fixups as usual - A few deadcode cleanups, CA0132 code cleanup, etc. ASoC: - More componentization work from Lars-Peter, this time mainly cleaning up the suspend and bias level transition callbacks. - Real system support for the Intel drivers and a bunch of fixes and enhancements for the associated CODEC drivers, this is going to need a lot quirks over time due to the lack of any firmware description of the boards. - Jack detect support for simple card from Dylan Reid. - A bunch of small fixes and enhancements for the Freescale drivers. - New drivers for Analog Devices SSM4567, Cirrus Logic CS35L32, Everest Semiconductor ES8328 and Freescale cards using the ASRC in newer i.MX processors. - A few simple-card fixes, mostly cleanups but also a fix for interaction between GPIO 0 and simple-card.
