Linus Torvalds 99b8f42ee2 Merge tag 'regmap-3.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regmap
Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
 "Quite a few enhancements this time around, helpers and diagnostics for
  the most part which is good to see:

   - Addition of table based lookups for the register access checks from
     Davide Ciminaghi, making life easier for drivers with big blocks of
     similar registers.
   - Allow drivers to get the irqdomain for regmap irq_chips, allowing
     the domain to be used with other APIs.
   - Debug improvements for paged register maps.
   - Performance improvments for some of the diagnostic infrastructure,
     very helpful for devices with large register maps."

Linus Torvalds d07e43d70e Merge branch 'omap-serial' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM OMAP serial updates from Russell King:
 "This series is a major reworking of the OMAP serial driver code fixing
  various bugs in the hardware-assisted flow control, extending up into
  serial_core for a couple of issues.  These fixes have been done as a
  set of progressive changes and transformations in the hope that no new
  bugs will be introduced by this series.

  The problems are many-fold, from the driver not being informed about
  updated settings, to the driver not knowing what the intentions of the
  upper layers are.

  The first four patches tackle the serial_core layer, allowing it to
  provide the necessary information to drivers, and the remaining
  patches allow the OMAP serial driver to take advantage of this.

  This brings hardware assisted RTS/CTS and XON/OFF flow control into a
  useful state.

  These patches have been in linux-next for most of the last cycle;
  indeed they predate the previous merge window.  They've also been
  posted to the OMAP people."

Pull x86 BSP hotplug changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree enables CPU#0 (the boot processor) to be onlined/offlined on
  x86, just like any other CPU.  Enabled on Intel CPUs for now.

  Allowing this required the identification and fixing of latent CPU#0
  assumptions (such as CPU#0 initializations, etc.) in the x86
  architecture code, plus the identification of barriers to
  BSP-offlining, such as active PIC interrupts which can only be
  serviced on the BSP.

  It's behind a default-off option, and there's a debug option that
  allows the automatic testing of this feature.

  The motivation of this feature is to allow and prepare for true
  CPU-hotplug hardware support: recent changes to MCE support enable us
  to detect a deteriorating but not yet hard-failing L1/L2 cache on a
  CPU that could be soft-unplugged - or a failing L3 cache on a
  multi-socket system.

  Note that true hardware hot-plug is not yet fully enabled by this,
  because that requires a special platform wakeup sequence to be sent to
  the freshly powered up CPU#0.  Future patches for this are planned,
  once such a platform exists.  Chicken and egg"

Linus Torvalds f57d54bab6 Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change affects group scheduling: we now track the runnable
  average on a per-task entity basis, allowing a smoother, exponential
  decay average based load/weight estimation instead of the previous
  binary on-the-runqueue/off-the-runqueue load weight method.

  This will inevitably disturb workloads that were in some sort of
  borderline balancing state or unstable equilibrium, so an eye has to
  be kept on regressions.

  For that reason the new load average is only limited to group
  scheduling (shares distribution) at the moment (which was also hurting
  the most from the prior, crude weight calculation and whose scheduling
  quality wins most from this change) - but we plan to extend this to
  regular SMP balancing as well in the future, which will simplify and
  speed up things a bit.

  Other changes involve ongoing preparatory work to extend NOHZ to the
  scheduler as well, eventually allowing completely irq-free user-space
  execution."

Linus Torvalds 090f8ccba3 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of activity:

   211 files changed, 8328 insertions(+), 4116 deletions(-)

  most of it on the tooling side.

  Main changes:

   * ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.

   * uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
     Nesterov.

   * UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
     transition

   * Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Make hardware event translations available in sysfs, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
     maps, from Namhyung Kim

   * Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim

   * Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
     different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
     python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
     that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
     from Jiri Olsa

   * Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
     buckets for all the entries in all the hists.  This new method is
     now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
     'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.

   * libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
     build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
     really pointed to real bugs.

   * Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
     report and annotate browsers.  It does filtering to find the
     scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used.  From
     Feng Tang

   * perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
     Andrew Vagin.

   * Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.

   * Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.

   * Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
     existing threads when we start a tool like trace.

   * Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
     produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
     tglx's original "trace" tool.

   * Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'

   * Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.

   * There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
     build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
     not possible, from Borislav Petkov.

   * Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David
     Ahern.

   * Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session
     environment information in the perf.data file header, from Irina
     Tirdea, original patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.

   * Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can
     figure out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc.  From
     Jiri Olsa.

   * Add on_exit implementation for systems without one, e.g.  Android,
     from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.

   * Only process events for vcpus of interest, helps handling large
     number of events, from David Ahern.

   * Cross compilation fixes for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

   * Add documentation on compiling for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

   * perf diff improvements from Jiri Olsa.

   * Target (task/user/cpu/syswide) handling improvements, from Namhyung
     Kim.

   * Add support in 'trace' for tracing workload given by command line,
     from Namhyung Kim.

   * ... and much more."

Linus Torvalds 37ea95a959 Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU update from Ingo Molnar:
 "The major features of this tree are:

     1. A first version of no-callbacks CPUs.  This version prohibits
        offlining CPU 0, but only when enabled via CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y.
        Relaxing this constraint is in progress, but not yet ready
        for prime time.  These commits were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/724.

     2. Changes to SRCU that allows statically initialized srcu_struct
        structures.  These commits were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/296.

     3. Restructuring of RCU's debugfs output.  These commits were posted
        to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/341.

     4. Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327.
        Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to
        be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9.

     5. Changes to RCU's idle interface, most notably a new module
        parameter that redirects normal grace-period operations to
        their expedited equivalents.  These were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/739.

     6. Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility,
        posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315.
        The most notable change reduces the
        default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds,
        so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout.

     7. Documentation updates, which were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/280.
        A couple of late-breaking changes were posted at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/634 and
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/547.

     8. Miscellaneous fixes, which were posted to LKML at
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/309.

     9. Finally, a fix for an lockdep-RCU splat was posted to LKML
        at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/7/486."
