perf/core: Disable the event on a truncated AUX record
When the PMU driver reports a truncated AUX record, it effectively means
that there is no more usable room in the event's AUX buffer (even though
there may still be some room, so that perf_aux_output_begin() doesn't take
action). At this point the consumer still has to be woken up and the event
has to be disabled, otherwise the event will just keep spinning between
perf_aux_output_begin() and perf_aux_output_end() until its context gets
unscheduled.
Again, for cpu-wide events this means never, so once in this condition,
they will be forever losing data.
Fix this by disabling the event and waking up the consumer in case of a
truncated AUX record.
perf/x86/intel/pt: Generate PMI in the STOP region as well
Currently, the PT driver always sets the PMI bit one region (page) before
the STOP region so that we can wake up the consumer before we run out of
room in the buffer and have to disable the event. However, we also need
an interrupt in the last output region, so that we actually get to disable
the event (if no more room from new data is available at that point),
otherwise hardware just quietly refuses to start, but the event is
scheduled in and we end up losing trace data till the event gets removed.
For a cpu-wide event it is even worse since there may not be any
re-scheduling at all and no chance for the ring buffer code to notice
that its buffer is filled up and the event needs to be disabled (so that
the consumer can re-enable it when it finishes reading the data out). In
other words, all the trace data will be lost after the buffer gets filled
up.
This patch makes PT also generate a PMI when the last output region is
full.

sched/loadavg: Fix loadavg artifacts on fully idle and on fully loaded systems
Systems show a minimal load average of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 even when they
have no load at all.
Uptime and /proc/loadavg on all systems with kernels released during the
last five years up until kernel version 4.6-rc5, show a 5- and 15-minute
minimum loadavg of 0.01 and 0.05 respectively. This should be 0.00 on
idle systems, but the way the kernel calculates this value prevents it
from getting lower than the mentioned values.
Likewise but not as obviously noticeable, a fully loaded system with no
processes waiting, shows a maximum 1/5/15 loadavg of 1.00, 0.99, 0.95
(multiplied by number of cores).
Once the (old) load becomes 93 or higher, it mathematically can never
get lower than 93, even when the active (load) remains 0 forever.
This results in the strange 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 uptime values on idle
systems. Note: 93/2048 = 0.0454..., which rounds up to 0.05.
It is not correct to add a 0.5 rounding (=1024/2048) here, since the
result from this function is fed back into the next iteration again,
so the result of that +0.5 rounding value then gets multiplied by
(2048-2037), and then rounded again, so there is a virtual "ghost"
load created, next to the old and active load terms.
By changing the way the internally kept value is rounded, that internal
value equivalent now can reach 0.00 on idle, and 1.00 on full load. Upon
increasing load, the internally kept load value is rounded up, when the
load is decreasing, the load value is rounded down.
The modified code was tested on nohz=off and nohz kernels. It was tested
on vanilla kernel 4.6-rc5 and on centos 7.1 kernel 3.10.0-327. It was
tested on single, dual, and octal cores system. It was tested on virtual
hosts and bare hardware. No unwanted effects have been observed, and the
problems that the patch intended to fix were indeed gone.
In calculate_imbalance() load_above_capacity currently has the unit
[capacity] while it is used as being [load/capacity]. Not only is it
wrong it also makes it unlikely that load_above_capacity is ever used

sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration
Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups)
the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues.
The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates
time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that
light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in
relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past).
This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we
might be placing the current task.
The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any
other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any
other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment
in time, and not in the past.

CQE Compressing reduces PCI overhead by coalescing and compressing multiple CQEs into a
single merged CQE. Successful compressing improves message rate especially for small packet
traffic.
CQE Compressing in details:
Instead of writing full CQEs to memory, multiple almost identical CQEs are merged and compressed.
Information that is shared between the CQEs is written once, regardless of the number of
compressed CQEs. In addition, only the unique information (small amount of bytes compared to
full CQE size) is written per CQE.
CQE Compression Block:
This block contains multiple compressed CQEs. CQE Compression Block contains a single copy
of CQEs properties which are shared between all the compressed CQEs (called Title, see below)
and multiple mini CQEs (CQEs in compressed form).
Title:
The Title holds information which is shared between all the compressed CQEs in the CQE Compression
Block. In each Compression Block there is only a single Title regardless of the number
of compressed CQEs.
Mini CQE:
A CQE in compressed form that holds some data needed to extract a single full CQE, for example
8 Bytes instead of 64 Bytes.
The shared information between all compressed CQEs, which belong to the same CQE Compression
Block called Title, is written once, and only the unique information in each compressed
CQE, for example 8 bytes, is written per compressed CQE, called mini CQE.
Since CQE Compression can add overhead to the software (CPU),
it will be only enabled on "weak/slow" PCI slots, where it can actually help.

this device with the new DSA core framework.

There are no in kernel users of this property, so moving it does not
break anything. There is however a board which will make use of this
property making its way into the kernel.

Merge branch 'vrf-pktinfo'
David Ahern says:
====================
net: vrf: Fixup PKTINFO to return enslaved device index
Applications such as OSPF and BFD need the original ingress device not
the VRF device; the latter can be derived from the former. To that end
move the packet intercept from an rx handler that is invoked by
__netif_receive_skb_core to the ipv4 and ipv6 receive processing.
IPv6 already saves the skb_iif to the control buffer in ipv6_rcv. Since
the skb->dev has not been switched the cb has the enslaved device. Make
the same happen for IPv4 by adding the skb_iif to inet_skb_parm and set
it in ipv4 code after clearing the skb control buffer similar to IPv6.
From there the pktinfo can just pull it from cb with the PKTINFO_SKB_CB
cast.

net: l3mdev: Add hook in ip and ipv6
Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device
to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer
means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds
overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index
more complicated than necessary.
This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK
for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device
trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver
in the future.
dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb
with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current
behavior (tcpdump can be used on either the vrf device or the enslaved
devices).
intel_pstate: Clarify average performance computation
The core_pct_busy field of struct sample actually contains the
average performace during the last sampling period (in percent)
and not the utilization of the core as suggested by its name
which is confusing.
For this reason, change the name of that field to core_avg_perf
and rename the function that computes its value accordingly.
Also notice that storing this value as percentage requires a costly
integer multiplication to be carried out in a hot path, so instead
store it as an "extended fixed point" value with more fraction bits
and update the code using it accordingly (it is better to change the
name of the field along with its meaning in one go than to make those
two changes separately, as that would likely lead to more
confusion).

intel_pstate: Avoid unnecessary synchronize_sched() during initialization
Currently, in intel_pstate_clear_update_util_hook(), after

Actually, the synchronize_sched() is not necessary if the utilization
update hook has not been set for the given CPU yet, so make the driver
check if that's the case and avoid the synchronize_sched() call then.

openvswitch: Fix cached ct with helper.
When using conntrack helpers from OVS, a common configuration is to
perform a lookup without specifying a helper, then go through a
firewalling policy, only to decide to attach a helper afterwards.
In this case, the initial lookup will cause a ct entry to be attached to
the skb, then the later commit with helper should attach the helper and
confirm the connection. However, the helper attachment has been missing.
If the user has enabled automatic helper attachment, then this issue
will be masked as it will be applied in init_conntrack(). It is also
masked if the action is executed from ovs_packet_cmd_execute() as that
will construct a fresh skb.
This patch fixes the issue by making an explicit call to try to assign
the helper if there is a discrepancy between the action's helper and the
current skb->nfct.

x86/extable: ensure entries are swapped completely when sorting
The x86 exception table sorting was changed in commit 29934b0fb8ff
("x86/extable: use generic search and sort routines") to use the arch
independent code in lib/extable.c. However, the patch was mangled
somehow on its way into the kernel from the last version posted at [1].
The committed version kind of attempted to incorporate the changes of
commit 548acf19234d ("x86/mm: Expand the exception table logic to allow
new handling options") as in _completely_ _ignoring_ the x86 specific
'handler' member of struct exception_table_entry. This effectively
broke the sorting as entries will only partly be swapped now.
Fortunately, the x86 Kconfig selects BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT, so the
exception table doesn't need to be sorted at runtime. However, in case
that ever changes, we better not break the exception table sorting just
because of that.
[ Ard Biesheuvel points out that BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT applies to the
core image only, but we still rely on the sorting routines for modules
in that case - Linus ]
Fix this by providing a swap_ex_entry_fixup() macro that takes care of
the 'handler' member.
