Linus Torvalds 14986a34e1 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes is a number of smaller things that have been
  overlooked in other development cycles focused on more fundamental
  change. The devpts changes are small things that were a distraction
  until we managed to kill off DEVPTS_MULTPLE_INSTANCES. There is an
  trivial regression fix to autofs for the unprivileged mount changes
  that went in last cycle. A pair of ioctls has been added by Andrey
  Vagin making it is possible to discover the relationships between
  namespaces when referring to them through file descriptors.

  The big user visible change is starting to add simple resource limits
  to catch programs that misbehave. With namespaces in general and user
  namespaces in particular allowing users to use more kinds of
  resources, it has become important to have something to limit errant
  programs. Because the purpose of these limits is to catch errant
  programs the code needs to be inexpensive to use as it always on, and
  the default limits need to be high enough that well behaved programs
  on well behaved systems don't encounter them.

  To this end, after some review I have implemented per user per user
  namespace limits, and use them to limit the number of namespaces. The
  limits being per user mean that one user can not exhause the limits of
  another user. The limits being per user namespace allow contexts where
  the limit is 0 and security conscious folks can remove from their
  threat anlysis the code used to manage namespaces (as they have
  historically done as it root only). At the same time the limits being
  per user namespace allow other parts of the system to use namespaces.

  Namespaces are increasingly being used in application sand boxing
  scenarios so an all or nothing disable for the entire system for the
  security conscious folks makes increasing use of these sandboxes
  impossible.

  There is also added a limit on the maximum number of mounts present in
  a single mount namespace. It is nontrivial to guess what a reasonable
  system wide limit on the number of mount structure in the kernel would
  be, especially as it various based on how a system is using
  containers. A limit on the number of mounts in a mount namespace
  however is much easier to understand and set. In most cases in
  practice only about 1000 mounts are used. Given that some autofs
  scenarious have the potential to be 30,000 to 50,000 mounts I have set
  the default limit for the number of mounts at 100,000 which is well
  above every known set of users but low enough that the mount hash
  tables don't degrade unreaonsably.

  These limits are a start. I expect this estabilishes a pattern that
  other limits for resources that namespaces use will follow. There has
  been interest in making inotify event limits per user per user
  namespace as well as interest expressed in making details about what
  is going on in the kernel more visible"

Linus Torvalds 41844e3620 Merge tag 'staging-4.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging
Pull staging and IIO updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big staging and IIO driver pull request for 4.9-rc1.

  There are a lot of patches in here, the majority due to the
  drivers/staging/greybus/ subsystem being merged in with full
  development history that went back a few years, in order to preserve
  the work that those developers did over time.

  Lots and lots of tiny cleanups happened in the tree as well, due to
  the Outreachy application process and lots of other developers showing
  up for the first time to clean code up.  Along with those changes, we
  deleted a wireless driver, and added a raspberrypi driver (currently
  marked broken), and lots of new iio drivers.

  Overall the tree still shrunk with more lines removed than added,
  about 10 thousand lines removed in total. Full details are in the very
  long shortlog below.

  All of this has been in the linux-next tree with no issues. There will
  be some merge problems with other subsystem trees, but those are all
  minor problems and shouldn't be hard to work out when they happen
  (MAINTAINERS and some lustre build problems with the IB tree)"

And furter from me asking for clarification about greybus:
 "Right now there is a phone from Motorola shipping with this code (a
  slightly older version, but the same tree), so even though Ara is not
  alive in the same form, the functionality is happening. We are working
  with the developers of that phone to merge the newer stuff in with
  their fork so they can use the upstream version in future versions of
  their phone product line.

  Toshiba has at least one chip shipping in their catalog that
  needs/uses this protocol over a Unipro link, and rumor has it that
  there might be more in the future.

  There are also other users of the greybus protocols, there is a talk
  next week at ELC that shows how it is being used across a network
  connection to control a device, and previous ELC talks have showed the
  protocol stack being used over USB to drive embedded Linux boards.
  I've also talked to some people who are starting to work to add a host
  controller driver to control arduinos as the greybus PHY protocols are
  very useful to control a serial/i2c/spio/whatever device across a
  random physical link, as it is a way to have a self-describing device
  be attached to a host without needing manual configuration.

  So yes, people are using it, and there is still the chance that it
  will show up in a phone/laptop/tablet/whatever from Google in the
  future as well, the tech isn't dead, even if the original large phone
  project happens to be"

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here's the "big" char and misc driver update for 4.9-rc1.

  Lots of little things here, all over the driver tree for subsystems
  that flow through me. Nothing major that I can discern, full details
  are in the shortlog.

  All have been in the linux-next tree with no reported issues"

Linus Torvalds 597f03f9d1 Merge branch 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:

   - Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
     drivers do not have to keep custom lists.

   - Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
     list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
     tip over to more lines removed than added.

   - Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.

   - Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.

   - Convert another batch of notifier users.

   The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
   shipped to me by Andrew.

   The remaining lot is targeted for 4.10 so that we finally can remove
   the rest of the notifiers"

Linus Torvalds 1a4a2bc460 Merge branch 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull low-level x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "In this cycle this topic tree has become one of those 'super topics'
  that accumulated a lot of changes:

   - Add CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y support to the core kernel and enable it on
     x86 - preceded by an array of changes. v4.8 saw preparatory changes
     in this area already - this is the rest of the work. Includes the
     thread stack caching performance optimization. (Andy Lutomirski)

   - switch_to() cleanups and all around enhancements. (Brian Gerst)

   - A large number of dumpstack infrastructure enhancements and an
     unwinder abstraction. The secret long term plan is safe(r) live
     patching plus maybe another attempt at debuginfo based unwinding -
     but all these current bits are standalone enhancements in a frame
     pointer based debug environment as well. (Josh Poimboeuf)

   - More __ro_after_init and const annotations. (Kees Cook)

   - Enable KASLR for the vmemmap memory region. (Thomas Garnier)"

[ The virtually mapped stack changes are pretty fundamental, and not
  x86-specific per se, even if they are only used on x86 right now. ]

Linus Torvalds 12b7bcb43e Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main kernel side changes were:

   - uprobes enhancements (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - Uncore group events enhancements (David Carrillo-Cisneros)

   - x86 Intel: Add support for Skylake server uncore PMUs (Kan Liang)

   - x86 Intel: LBR cleanups and enhancements, for better branch
     annotation tracking (Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel: Add support for PTWRITE and power event tracing
     (Alexander Shishkin)

   - ... various fixes, cleanups and smaller enhancements.

  Lots of tooling changes - a couple of highlights:

   - Support event group view with hierarchy mode in 'perf top' and
     'perf report' (Namhyung Kim)

     e.g.:

     $ perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}' make
     $ perf report --hierarchy --stdio
     ...
     #   Overhead  Command / Shared Object / Symbol
     # ......................  ..................................
     ...
     25.74%  27.18%sh
     19.96%  24.14%libc-2.24.so
      9.55%  14.64%[.] __strcmp_sse2
      1.54%   0.00%[.] __tfind
      1.07%   1.13%[.] _int_malloc
      0.95%   0.00%[.] __strchr_sse2
      0.89%   1.39%[.] __tsearch
      0.76%   0.00%[.] strlen

   - Add branch stack / basic block info to 'perf annotate --stdio',
     where for each branch, we add an asm comment after the instruction
     with information on how often it was taken and predicted. See
     example with color output at:

       http://vger.kernel.org/~acme/perf/annotate_basic_blocks.png

     (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Add support for using symbols in address filters with Intel PT and
     ARM CoreSight (hardware assisted tracing facilities) (Adrian
     Hunter, Mathieu Poirier)

   - Add support for interacting with Coresight PMU ETMs/PTMs, that are
     IP blocks to perform hardware assisted tracing on a ARM CPU core
     (Mathieu Poirier)

   - Support generating cross arch probes, i.e. if you specify a vmlinux
     file for different arch than the one in the host machine,

        $ perf probe --definition function_name args

     will generate the probe definition string needed to append to the
     target machine /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobes_events file, using
     scripting (Masami Hiramatsu).

   - Allow configuring the default 'perf report -s' sort order in
     ~/.perfconfig, for instance, "sym,dso" may be more fitting for
     kernel developers. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
