2014-04-07kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))Gideon Israel Dsouza
To increase compiler portability there is <linux/compiler.h> which provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes with the right macro in the kernel subsystem. Signed-off-by: Gideon Israel Dsouza <gidisrael@gmail.com> Cc: "Rafael J.

2014-04-07hung_task: check the value of "sysctl_hung_task_timeout_sec"Liu Hua
As sysctl_hung_task_timeout_sec is unsigned long, when this value is larger then LONG_MAX/HZ, the function schedule_timeout_interruptible in watchdog will return immediately without sleep and with print : schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value ffffffffffffff83 and then the funtion watchdog will call schedule_timeout_interruptible again and again. The screen will be filled with "schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value ffffffffffffff83" This patch does some check and correction in sysctl, to let the function schedule_timeout_interruptible allways get the valid parameter.

2014-04-07wait: WSTOPPED|WCONTINUED doesn't work if a zombie leader is traced by ↵Oleg Nesterov
another process Even if the main thread is dead the process still can stop/continue. However, if the leader is ptraced wait_consider_task(ptrace => false) always skips wait_task_stopped/wait_task_continued, so WSTOPPED or WCONTINUED can never work for the natural parent in this case. Move the "A zombie ptracee is only visible to its ptracer" check into the "if (!delay_group_leader(p))" block. ->notask_error is cleared by the "fall through" code below. This depends on the previous change, wait_task_stopped/continued must be avoided if !delay_group_leader() and the tracer is ->real_parent. Otherwise WSTOPPED|WEXITED could wrongly report "stopped" when the child is already dead (single-threaded or not). If it is traced by another task then the "stopped" state is fine until the debugger detaches and reveals a zombie state. Stupid test-case: void *tfunc(void *arg) { sleep(1); // wait for zombie leader raise(SIGSTOP); exit(0x13); return NULL; } int run_child(void) { pthread_t thread; if (!fork()) { int tracee = getppid(); assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, tracee, 0,0) == 0); do ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, 0,0); while (wait(NULL) > 0); return 0; } sleep(1); // wait for PTRACE_ATTACH assert(pthread_create(&thread, NULL, tfunc, NULL) == 0); pthread_exit(NULL); } int main(void) { int child, stat; child = fork(); if (!child) return run_child(); assert(child == waitpid(-1, &stat, WSTOPPED)); assert(stat == 0x137f); kill(child, SIGCONT); assert(child == waitpid(-1, &stat, WCONTINUED)); assert(stat == 0xffff); assert(child == waitpid(-1, &stat, 0)); assert(stat == 0x1300); return 0; } Without this patch it hangs in waitpid(WSTOPPED), wait_task_stopped() is never called. Note: this doesn't fix all problems with a zombie delay_group_leader(), WCONTINUED | WEXITED check is not exactly right. debugger can't assume it will be notified if another thread reaps the whole thread group.

2014-04-07wait: WSTOPPED|WCONTINUED hangs if a zombie child is traced by real_parentOleg Nesterov
"A zombie is only visible to its ptracer" logic in wait_consider_task() is very wrong. Trivial test-case: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <assert.h> int main(void) { int child = fork(); if (!child) { assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0); return 0x23; } assert(waitid(P_ALL, child, NULL, WEXITED | WNOWAIT) == 0); assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WSTOPPED) == -1); return 0; } it hangs in waitpid(WSTOPPED) despite the fact it has a single zombie child. This is because wait_consider_task(ptrace => 0) sees p->ptrace and cleares ->notask_error assuming that the debugger should detach and notify us. Change wait_consider_task(ptrace => 0) to pretend that ptrace == T if the child is traced by us. This really simplifies the logic and allows us to do more fixes, see the next changes. This also hides the unwanted group stop state automatically, we can remove another ptrace_reparented() check. Unfortunately, this adds the following behavioural changes: 1. Before this patch wait(WEXITED | __WNOTHREAD) does not reap a natural child if it is traced by the caller's sub-thread. Hopefully nobody will ever notice this change, and I think that nobody should rely on this behaviour anyway. 2. SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED is no longer hidden from debugger if it is real parent. While this change comes as a side effect, I think it is good by itself. The group continued state can not be consumed by another process in this case, it doesn't depend on ptrace, it doesn't make sense to hide it from real parent. Perhaps we should add the thread_group_leader() check before wait_task_continued()? May be, but this shouldn't depend on ptrace_reparented().

2014-04-07wait: use EXIT_TRACE only if thread_group_leader(zombie)Oleg Nesterov
wait_task_zombie() always uses EXIT_TRACE/ptrace_unlink() if ptrace_reparented(). This is suboptimal and a bit confusing: we do not need do_notify_parent(p) if !thread_group_leader(p) and in this case we also do not need ptrace_unlink(), we can rely on ptrace_release_task(). Change wait_task_zombie() to check thread_group_leader() along with ptrace_reparented() and simplify the final p->exit_state transition.

2014-04-07wait: introduce EXIT_TRACE to avoid the racy EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE transitionOleg Nesterov
wait_task_zombie() first does EXIT_ZOMBIE->EXIT_DEAD transition and drops tasklist_lock. If this task is not the natural child and it is traced, we change its state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE for ->real_parent. The last transition is racy, this is even documented in 50b8d257486a "ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE race". wait_consider_task() tries to detect this transition and clear ->notask_error but we can't rely on ptrace_reparented(), debugger can exit and do ptrace_unlink() before its sub-thread sets EXIT_ZOMBIE. And there is another problem which were missed before: this transition can also race with reparent_leader() which doesn't reset >exit_signal if EXIT_DEAD, assuming that this task must be reaped by someone else. So the tracee can be re-parented with ->exit_signal != SIGCHLD, and if /sbin/init doesn't use __WALL it becomes unreapable. This was fixed by the previous commit, but it was the temporary hack. 1. Add the new exit_state, EXIT_TRACE. It means that the task is the traced zombie, debugger is going to detach and notify its natural parent. This new state is actually EXIT_ZOMBIE | EXIT_DEAD. This way we can avoid the changes in proc/kgdb code, get_task_state() still reports "X (dead)" in this case. Note: with or without this change userspace can see Z -> X -> Z transition. Not really bad, but probably makes sense to fix. 2. Change wait_task_zombie() to use EXIT_TRACE instead of EXIT_DEAD if we need to notify the ->real_parent. 3. Revert the previous hack in reparent_leader(), now that EXIT_DEAD is always the final state we can safely ignore such a task. 4. Change wait_consider_task() to check EXIT_TRACE separately and kill the racy and no longer needed ptrace_reparented() case. If ptrace == T an EXIT_TRACE thread should be simply ignored, the owner of this state is going to ptrace_unlink() this task. We can pretend that it was already removed from ->ptraced list. Otherwise we should skip this thread too but clear ->notask_error, we must be the natural parent and debugger is going to untrace and notify us. IOW, this doesn't differ from "EXIT_ZOMBIE && p->ptrace" even if the task was already untraced.

2014-04-07kernel/exit.c: call proc_exit_connector() after exit_state is setGuillaume Morin
The process events connector delivers a notification when a process exits. This is really convenient for a process that spawns and wants to monitor its children through an epoll-able() interface. Unfortunately, there is a small window between when the event is delivered and the child become wait()-able. This is creates a race if the parent wants to make sure that it knows about the exit, e.g pid_t pid = fork(); if (pid > 0) { register_interest_for_pid(pid); if (waitpid(pid, NULL, WNOHANG) > 0) { /* We might have raced with exit() */ } return; } /* Child */ execve(...) register_interest_for_pid() would be telling the the connector socket reader to pay attention to events related to pid. Though this is not a bug, I think it would make the connector a bit more usable if this race was closed by simply moving the call to proc_exit_connector() from just before exit_notify() to right after. Oleg said: : Even with this patch the code above is still "racy" if the child is : multi-threaded. Plus it should obviously filter-out subthreads. And : afaics there is no way to make it reliable, even if you change the code : above so that waitpid() is called only after the last thread exits WNOHANG : still can fail.

2014-04-07mm: per-thread vma cachingDavidlohr Bueso
This patch is a continuation of efforts trying to optimize find_vma(), avoiding potentially expensive rbtree walks to locate a vma upon faults. The original approach (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/1/410), where the largest vma was also cached, ended up being too specific and random, thus further comparison with other approaches were needed. There are two things to consider when dealing with this, the cache hit rate and the latency of find_vma(). Improving the hit-rate does not necessarily translate in finding the vma any faster, as the overhead of any fancy caching schemes can be too high to consider. We currently cache the last used vma for the whole address space, which provides a nice optimization, reducing the total cycles in find_vma() by up to 250%, for workloads with good locality. On the other hand, this simple scheme is pretty much useless for workloads with poor locality. Analyzing ebizzy runs shows that, no matter how many threads are running, the mmap_cache hit rate is less than 2%, and in many situations below 1%. The proposed approach is to replace this scheme with a small per-thread cache, maximizing hit rates at a very low maintenance cost. Invalidations are performed by simply bumping up a 32-bit sequence number. The only expensive operation is in the rare case of a seq number overflow, where all caches that share the same address space are flushed. Upon a miss, the proposed replacement policy is based on the page number that contains the virtual address in question. Concretely, the following results are seen on an 80 core, 8 socket x86-64 box: 1) System bootup: Most programs are single threaded, so the per-thread scheme does improve ~50% hit rate by just adding a few more slots to the cache. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 50.61% | 19.90 | | patched | 73.45% | 13.58 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 2) Kernel build: This one is already pretty good with the current approach as we're dealing with good locality. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 75.28% | 11.03 | | patched | 88.09% | 9.31 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 3) Oracle 11g Data Mining (4k pages): Similar to the kernel build workload. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 70.66% | 17.14 | | patched | 91.15% | 12.57 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 4) Ebizzy: There's a fair amount of variation from run to run, but this approach always shows nearly perfect hit rates, while baseline is just about non-existent. The amounts of cycles can fluctuate between anywhere from ~60 to ~116 for the baseline scheme, but this approach reduces it considerably.

Pull ARM changes from Russell King: - Perf updates from Will Deacon: - Support for Qualcomm Krait processors (run perf on your phone!) - Support for Cortex-A12 (run perf stat on your FPGA!) - Support for perf_sample_event_took, allowing us to automatically decrease the sample rate if we can't handle the PMU interrupts quickly enough (run perf record on your FPGA!). - Basic uprobes support from David Long: This patch series adds basic uprobes support to ARM. It is based on patches developed earlier by Rabin Vincent. That approach of adding hooks into the kprobes instruction parsing code was not well received. This approach separates the ARM instruction parsing code in kprobes out into a separate set of functions which can be used by both kprobes and uprobes. Both kprobes and uprobes then provide their own semantic action tables to process the results of the parsing. - ARMv7M (microcontroller) updates from Uwe Kleine-König - OMAP DMA updates (recently added Vinod's Ack even though they've been sitting in linux-next for a few months) to reduce the reliance of omap-dma on the code in arch/arm. - SA11x0 changes from Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov and Alexander Shiyan - Support for Cortex-A12 CPU - Align support for ARMv6 with ARMv7 so they can cooperate better in a single zImage. - Addition of first AT_HWCAP2 feature bits for ARMv8 crypto support. - Removal of IRQ_DISABLED from various ARM files - Improved efficiency of virt_to_page() for single zImage - Patch from Ulf Hansson to permit runtime PM callbacks to be available for AMBA devices for suspend/resume as well. - Finally kill asm/system.h on ARM. * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (89 commits) dmaengine: omap-dma: more consolidation of CCR register setup dmaengine: omap-dma: move IRQ handling to omap-dma dmaengine: omap-dma: move register read/writes into omap-dma.c ARM: omap: dma: get rid of 'p' allocation and clean up ARM: omap: move dma channel allocation into plat-omap code ARM: omap: dma: get rid of errata global ARM: omap: clean up DMA register accesses ARM: omap: remove almost-const variables ARM: omap: remove references to disable_irq_lch dmaengine: omap-dma: cleanup errata 3.3 handling dmaengine: omap-dma: provide register read/write functions dmaengine: omap-dma: use cached CCR value when enabling DMA dmaengine: omap-dma: move barrier to omap_dma_start_desc() dmaengine: omap-dma: move clnk_ctrl setting to preparation functions dmaengine: omap-dma: improve efficiency loading C.SA/C.EI/C.FI registers dmaengine: omap-dma: consolidate clearing channel status register dmaengine: omap-dma: move CCR buffering disable errata out of the fast path dmaengine: omap-dma: provide register definitions dmaengine: omap-dma: consolidate setup of CCR dmaengine: omap-dma: consolidate setup of CSDP ...

2014-04-03printk: use also the last bytes in the ring bufferPetr Mladek
It seems that we have newer used the last byte in the ring buffer. In fact, we have newer used the last 4 bytes because of padding. First problem is in the check for free space. The exact number of free bytes is enough to store the length of data. Second problem is in the check where the ring buffer is rotated. The left side counts the first unused index. It is unused, so it might be the same as the size of the buffer. Note that the first problem has to be fixed together with the second one. Otherwise, the buffer is rotated even when there is enough space on the end of the buffer. Then the beginning of the buffer is rewritten and valid entries get corrupted.

2014-04-03kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of module_init in core codePaul Gortmaker
Code that is obj-y (always built-in) or dependent on a bool Kconfig (built-in or absent) can never be modular. So using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix these up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. The audit targets the following module_init users for change: kernel/user.c obj-y kernel/kexec.c bool KEXEC (one instance per arch) kernel/profile.c bool PROFILING kernel/hung_task.c bool DETECT_HUNG_TASK kernel/sched/stats.c bool SCHEDSTATS kernel/user_namespace.c bool USER_NS Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level 4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that difference has been observed during testing. Also, two instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed in kexec.

2014-04-03drop_caches: add some documentation and info messageDave Hansen
There is plenty of anecdotal evidence and a load of blog posts suggesting that using "drop_caches" periodically keeps your system running in "tip top shape". Perhaps adding some kernel documentation will increase the amount of accurate data on its use. If we are not shrinking caches effectively, then we have real bugs. Using drop_caches will simply mask the bugs and make them harder to find, but certainly does not fix them, nor is it an appropriate "workaround" to limit the size of the caches. On the contrary, there have been bug reports on issues that turned out to be misguided use of cache dropping. Dropping caches is a very drastic and disruptive operation that is good for debugging and running tests, but if it creates bug reports from production use, kernel developers should be aware of its use. Add a bit more documentation about it, a syslog message to track down abusers, and vmstat drop counters to help analyze problem reports.

2014-04-03mm: optimize put_mems_allowed() usageMel Gorman
Since put_mems_allowed() is strictly optional, its a seqcount retry, we don't need to evaluate the function if the allocation was in fact successful, saving a smp_rmb some loads and comparisons on some relative fast-paths. Since the naming, get/put_mems_allowed() does suggest a mandatory pairing, rename the interface, as suggested by Mel, to resemble the seqcount interface. This gives us: read_mems_allowed_begin() and read_mems_allowed_retry(), where it is important to note that the return value of the latter call is inverted from its previous incarnation.

2014-04-03kernel/watchdog.c: touch_nmi_watchdog should only touch local cpu not every oneBen Zhang
I ran into a scenario where while one cpu was stuck and should have panic'd because of the NMI watchdog, it didn't. The reason was another cpu was spewing stack dumps on to the console. Upon investigation, I noticed that when writing to the console and also when dumping the stack, the watchdog is touched. This causes all the cpus to reset their NMI watchdog flags and the 'stuck' cpu just spins forever. This change causes the semantics of touch_nmi_watchdog to be changed slightly. Previously, I accidentally changed the semantics and we noticed there was a codepath in which touch_nmi_watchdog could be touched from a preemtible area. That caused a BUG() to happen when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT was enabled. I believe it was the acpi code. My attempt here re-introduces the change to have the touch_nmi_watchdog() code only touch the local cpu instead of all of the cpus. But instead of using __get_cpu_var(), I use the __raw_get_cpu_var() version. This avoids the preemption problem. However my reasoning wasn't because I was trying to be lazy. Instead I rationalized it as, well if preemption is enabled then interrupts should be enabled to and the NMI watchdog will have no reason to trigger. So it won't matter if the wrong cpu is touched because the percpu interrupt counters the NMI watchdog uses should still be incrementing. Don said: : I'm ok with this patch, though it does alter the behaviour of how : touch_nmi_watchdog works. For the most part I don't think most callers : need to touch all of the watchdogs (on each cpu). Perhaps a corner case : will pop up (the scheduler?? to mimic touch_all_softlockup_watchdogs() ). : : But this does address an issue where if a system is locked up and one cpu : is spewing out useful debug messages (or error messages), the hard lockup : will fail to go off.

2014-04-03kthread: ensure locality of task_struct allocationsNishanth Aravamudan
In the presence of memoryless nodes, numa_node_id() will return the current CPU's NUMA node, but that may not be where we expect to allocate from memory from. Instead, we should rely on the fallback code in the memory allocator itself, by using NUMA_NO_NODE. Also, when calling kthread_create_on_node(), use the nearest node with memory to the cpu in question, rather than the node it is running on.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: "A lot updates for cgroup: - The biggest one is cgroup's conversion to kernfs. cgroup took after the long abandoned vfs-entangled sysfs implementation and made it even more convoluted over time. cgroup's internal objects were fused with vfs objects which also brought in vfs locking and object lifetime rules. Naturally, there are places where vfs rules don't fit and nasty hacks, such as credential switching or lock dance interleaving inode mutex and cgroup_mutex with object serial number comparison thrown in to decide whether the operation is actually necessary, needed to be employed. After conversion to kernfs, internal object lifetime and locking rules are mostly isolated from vfs interactions allowing shedding of several nasty hacks and overall simplification. This will also allow implmentation of operations which may affect multiple cgroups which weren't possible before as it would have required nesting i_mutexes. - Various simplifications including dropping of module support, easier cgroup name/path handling, simplified cgroup file type handling and task_cg_lists optimization. - Prepatory changes for the planned unified hierarchy, which is still a patchset away from being actually operational. The dummy hierarchy is updated to serve as the default unified hierarchy.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "The majority of this material spent some time in linux-next, some of it even several weeks. There are a few relatively fresh commits in it, but they are mostly fixes and simple cleanups. ACPI took the lead this time, both in terms of the number of commits and the number of modified lines of code, cpufreq follows and there are a few changes in the PM core and in cpuidle too. A new feature that already got some LWN.net's attention is the device PM QoS extension allowing latency tolerance requirements to be propagated from leaf devices to their ancestors with hardware interfaces for specifying latency tolerance. That should help systems with hardware-driven power management to avoid going too far with it in cases when there are latency tolerance constraints. There also are some significant changes in the ACPI core related to the way in which hotplug notifications are handled. They affect PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) and the ACPI dock station code too. The bottom line is that all those notification now go through the root notify handler and are propagated to the interested subsystems by means of callbacks instead of having to install a notify handler for each device object that we can potentially get hotplug notifications for. In addition to that ACPICA will now advertise "Windows 2013" compatibility for _OSI, because some systems out there don't work correctly if that is not done (some of them don't even boot). On the system suspend side of things, all of the device suspend and resume callbacks, except for ->prepare() and ->complete(), are now going to be executed asynchronously as that turns out to speed up system suspend and resume on some platforms quite significantly and we have a few more optimizations in that area. Apart from that, there are some new device IDs and fixes and cleanups all over. In particular, the system suspend and resume handling by cpufreq should be improved and the cpuidle menu governor should be a bit more robust now. Specifics: - Device PM QoS support for latency tolerance constraints on systems with hardware interfaces allowing such constraints to be specified. That is necessary to prevent hardware-driven power management from becoming overly aggressive on some systems and to prevent power management features leading to excessive latencies from being used in some cases. - Consolidation of the handling of ACPI hotplug notifications for device objects. This causes all device hotplug notifications to go through the root notify handler (that was executed for all of them anyway before) that propagates them to individual subsystems, if necessary, by executing callbacks provided by those subsystems (those callbacks are associated with struct acpi_device objects during device enumeration). As a result, the code in question becomes both smaller in size and more straightforward and all of those changes should not affect users. - ACPICA update, including fixes related to the handling of _PRT in cases when it is broken and the addition of "Windows 2013" to the list of supported "features" for _OSI (which is necessary to support systems that work incorrectly or don't even boot without it). Changes from Bob Moore and Lv Zheng. - Consolidation of ACPI _OST handling from Jiang Liu. - ACPI battery and AC fixes allowing unusual system configurations to be handled by that code from Alexander Mezin. - New device IDs for the ACPI LPSS driver from Chiau Ee Chew. - ACPI fan and thermal optimizations related to system suspend and resume from Aaron Lu. - Cleanups related to ACPI video from Jean Delvare. - Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Al Stone, Hanjun Guo, Lan Tianyu, Paul Bolle, Tomasz Nowicki. - Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limits) driver cleanups from Jacob Pan. - intel_pstate fixes and cleanups from Dirk Brandewie. - cpufreq fixes related to system suspend/resume handling from Viresh Kumar. - cpufreq core fixes and cleanups from Viresh Kumar, Stratos Karafotis, Saravana Kannan, Rashika Kheria, Joe Perches. - cpufreq drivers updates from Viresh Kumar, Zhuoyu Zhang, Rob Herring. - cpuidle fixes related to the menu governor from Tuukka Tikkanen. - cpuidle fix related to coupled CPUs handling from Paul Burton. - Asynchronous execution of all device suspend and resume callbacks, except for ->prepare and ->complete, during system suspend and resume from Chuansheng Liu. - Delayed resuming of runtime-suspended devices during system suspend for the PCI bus type and ACPI PM domain. - New set of PM helper routines to allow device runtime PM callbacks to be used during system suspend and resume more easily from Ulf Hansson. - Assorted fixes and cleanups in the PM core from Geert Uytterhoeven, Prabhakar Lad, Philipp Zabel, Rashika Kheria, Sebastian Capella. - devfreq fix from Saravana Kannan" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (162 commits) PM / devfreq: Rewrite devfreq_update_status() to fix multiple bugs PM / sleep: Correct whitespace errors in <linux/pm.h> intel_pstate: Set core to min P state during core offline cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to cpufreq_driver interface cpufreq: Remove unnecessary braces cpufreq: Fix checkpatch errors and warnings cpufreq: powerpc: add cpufreq transition latency for FSL e500mc SoCs MAINTAINERS: Reorder maintainer addresses for PM and ACPI PM / Runtime: Update runtime_idle() documentation for return value meaning video / output: Drop display output class support fujitsu-laptop: Drop unneeded include acer-wmi: Stop selecting VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL ACPI / gpu / drm: Stop selecting VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL ACPI / video: fix ACPI_VIDEO dependencies cpufreq: remove unused notifier: CPUFREQ_{SUSPENDCHANGE|RESUMECHANGE} cpufreq: Do not allow ->setpolicy drivers to provide ->target cpufreq: arm_big_little: set 'physical_cluster' for each CPU cpufreq: arm_big_little: make vexpress driver depend on bL core driver ACPI / button: Add ACPI Button event via netlink routine ACPI: Remove duplicate definitions of PREFIX ...
