2017-10-14watchdog: Revert "iTCO_wdt: all versions count down twice"Wim Van Sebroeck
commit fc61e83a29308601e6e8a0759e24fc8fe2122692 upstream. This reverts commit 1fccb73011ea8a5fa0c6d357c33fa29c695139ea.

2017-10-12ovl: fix regression caused by exclusive upper/work dir protectionAmir Goldstein
commit 85fdee1eef1a9e48ad5716916677e0c5fbc781e3 upstream. Enforcing exclusive ownership on upper/work dirs caused a docker regression: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/34672. Euan spotted the regression and pointed to the offending commit. Vivek has brought the regression to my attention and provided this reproducer: Terminal 1: mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none merged/ Terminal 2: unshare -m Terminal 1: umount merged mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none merged/ mount: /root/overlay-testing/merged: none already mounted or mount point busy To fix the regression, I replaced the error with an alarming warning. With index feature enabled, mount does fail, but logs a suggestion to override exclusive dir protection by disabling index. Note that index=off mount does take the inuse locks, so a concurrent index=off will issue the warning and a concurrent index=on mount will fail. Documentation was updated to reflect this change.

2017-09-20thunderbolt: Allow clearing the keyBernat, Yehezkel
commit e545f0d8a54a9594fe604d67d80ca6fddf72ca59 upstream. If secure authentication of a devices fails, either because the device already has another key uploaded, or there is some other error sending challenge to the device, and the user only wants to approve the device just once (without a new key being uploaded to the device) the current implementation does not allow this because the key cannot be cleared once set even if we allow it to be changed. Make this scenario possible and allow clearing the key by writing empty string to the key sysfs file.

2017-09-13Revert "firmware: add sanity check on shutdown/suspend"Linus Torvalds
commit f007cad159e99fa2acd3b2e9364fbb32ad28b971 upstream. This reverts commit 81f95076281fdd3bc382e004ba1bce8e82fccbce. It causes random failures of firmware loading at resume time (well, random for me, it seems to be more reliable for others) because the firmware disabling is not actually synchronous with any particular resume event, and at least the btusb driver that uses a workqueue to load the firmware at resume seems to occasionally hit the "firmware loading is disabled" logic because the firmware loader hasn't gotten the resume event yet. Some kind of sanity check for not trying to load firmware when it's not possible might be a good thing, but this commit was not it. Greg seems to have silently suffered the same issue, and pointed to the likely culprit, and Gabriel C verified the revert fixed it for him too.

2017-07-31efifb: allow user to disable write combined mapping.Dave Airlie
This patch allows the user to disable write combined mapping of the efifb framebuffer console using an nowc option. A customer noticed major slowdowns while logging to the console with write combining enabled, on other tasks running on the same CPU. (10x or greater slow down on all other cores on the same CPU as is doing the logging). I reproduced this on a machine with dual CPUs. Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2609 v3 @ 1.90GHz (6 core) I wrote a test that just mmaps the pci bar and writes to it in a loop, while this was running in the background one a single core with (taskset -c 1), building a kernel up to init/version.o (taskset -c 8) went from 13s to 133s or so. I've yet to explain why this occurs or what is going wrong I haven't managed to find a perf command that in any way gives insight into this. 11,885,070,715 instructions # 1.39 insns per cycle vs 12,082,592,342 instructions # 0.13 insns per cycle is the only thing I've spotted of interest, I've tried at least: dTLB-stores,dTLB-store-misses,L1-dcache-stores,LLC-store,LLC-store-misses,LLC-load-misses,LLC-loads,\mem-loads,mem-stores,iTLB-loads,iTLB-load-misses,cache-references,cache-misses For now it seems at least a good idea to allow a user to disable write combining if they see this until we can figure it out. Note also most users get a real framebuffer driver loaded when kms kicks in, it just happens on these machines the kernel didn't support the gpu specific driver.
