"These fix the (Intel-specific) Performance and Energy Bias Hint (EPB)
handling and expose it to user space via sysfs, fix and clean up
several cpufreq drivers, add support for two new chips to the qoriq
cpufreq driver, fix, simplify and clean up the cpufreq core and the
schedutil governor, add support for "CPU" domains to the generic power
domains (genpd) framework and provide low-level PSCI firmware support
for that feature, fix the exynos cpuidle driver and fix a couple of
issues in the devfreq subsystem and clean it up.
Specifics:
- Fix the handling of Performance and Energy Bias Hint (EPB) on Intel
processors and expose it to user space via sysfs to avoid having to
access it through the generic MSR I/F (Rafael Wysocki).
- Improve the handling of global turbo changes made by the platform
firmware in the intel_pstate driver (Rafael Wysocki).

in cpufreq (Borislav Petkov).
- Fix the frequency calculation loop in the armada-37xx cpufreq
driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix possible object reference leaks in multuple cpufreq drivers
(Wen Yang).
- Fix kerneldoc comment in the centrino cpufreq driver (dongjian).
- Clean up the ACPI and maple cpufreq drivers (Viresh Kumar, Mohan
Kumar).
- Add support for lx2160a and ls1028a to the qoriq cpufreq driver
(Vabhav Sharma, Yuantian Tang).
- Fix kobject memory leak in the cpufreq core (Viresh Kumar).
- Simplify the IOwait boosting in the schedutil cpufreq governor and
rework the TSC cpufreq notifier on x86 (Rafael Wysocki).
- Clean up the cpufreq core and statistics code (Yue Hu, Kyle Lin).
- Improve the cpufreq documentation, add SPDX license tags to some PM
documentation files and unify copyright notices in them (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Add support for "CPU" domains to the generic power domains (genpd)
framework and provide low-level PSCI firmware support for that
feature (Ulf Hansson).
- Rearrange the PSCI firmware support code and add support for
SYSTEM_RESET2 to it (Ulf Hansson, Sudeep Holla).
- Improve genpd support for devices in multiple power domains (Ulf
Hansson).
- Unify target residency for the AFTR and coupled AFTR states in the
exynos cpuidle driver (Marek Szyprowski).
- Introduce new helper routine in the operating performance points
(OPP) framework (Andrew-sh.Cheng).
- Add support for passing on-die termination (ODT) and auto power
down parameters from the kernel to Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) to the
rk3399_dmc devfreq driver (Enric Balletbo i Serra).
- Add tracing to devfreq (Lukasz Luba).
- Make the exynos-bus devfreq driver suspend all devices on system
shutdown (Marek Szyprowski).
- Fix a few minor issues in the devfreq subsystem and clean it up
somewhat (Enric Balletbo i Serra, MyungJoo Ham, Rob Herring,

When scatter to CQE is enabled on a DCT QP it corrupts the mailbox command
since it tried to treat it as as QP create mailbox command instead of a
DCT create command.
The corrupted mailbox command causes userspace to malfunction as the
device doesn't create the QP as expected.
A new mlx5 capability is exposed to user-space which ensures that it will
not enable the feature on DCT without this fix in the kernel.

The Platform Coordinated mode, which is the default and mandatory
mode, while support for the OS initiated (OSI) mode is optional.
In some cases it's interesting for the user/developer to know if
the OSI mode is supported by the PSCI FW, so print a message to
the log if that is the case.

The Binder fixes resolve some reported issues found by testing, first

The habanalabs fixes are all minor, resolving a number of tiny things.
The vboxguest patches are a bit larger. They resolve the fact that
virtual box decided to change their api in their latest release in a
way that broke the existing kernel code, despite saying that they were
never going to do that. So this is a bit of a "new feature", but is
good to get merged so that 5.1 will work with the latest release. The

break this again, but no one is holding their breath here.

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported <asm/kvm_para.h> to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.
We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support
[B] Match the header export of <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h>
to the KVM support
My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].
So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, <asm/kvm_para.h> was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.
After this commit, there will be two groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86
[2] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,

VirtualBox 6.0.x has a new feature where the guest kernel driver passes
info about the origin of the request (e.g. userspace or kernelspace) to
the hypervisor.
If we do not pass this information then when running the 6.0.x userspace
guest-additions tools on a 6.0.x host, some requests will get denied
with a VERR_VERSION_MISMATCH error, breaking vboxservice.service and
the mounting of shared folders marked to be auto-mounted.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
the processes they refer to.
With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.
With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
quite handy.
There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
the future once they are needed.
This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
a pidfd.
Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:
https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/
The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting
the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"

Add documentation for the BPF spinlock-related helpers to the doc in
bpf.h. I added the constraints and restrictions coming with the use of
spinlocks for BPF: not all of it is directly related to the use of the
helper, but I thought it would be nice for users to find them in the man
page.
This list of restrictions is nearly a verbatim copy of the list in
Alexei's commit log for those helpers.
