The biggest conceptual change is the decoupling of the microcode loading on boot and application processors (which load the microcode in different scenarios), so that both parse the input patches with as few assumptions as possible - this also fixes various kernel address space randomization bugs. (The AP side then goes on and caches the result to improve boot performance.) Since the AMD side already did this, this change also opened up the path towards more unification/simplification of the core microcode loading infrastructure: 10 files changed, 647 insertions(+), 940 deletions(-) which speaks for itself" * 'x86-microcode-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/microcode: Bump driver version, update copyrights x86/microcode: Rework microcode loading x86/microcode/intel: Remove intel_lib.c x86/microcode/amd: Move private inlines to .c and mark local functions static x86/microcode: Collect CPU info on resume x86/microcode: Issue the debug printk on resume only on success x86/microcode/amd: Hand down the CPU family x86/microcode: Export the microcode cache linked list x86/microcode: Remove one #ifdef clause x86/microcode/intel: Simplify generic_load_microcode() x86/microcode: Move driver authors to CREDITS x86/microcode: Run the AP-loading routine only on the application processors

Like with GPIO it's a lot of stuff. If my subsystems are any sign of the overall tempo of the kernel v4.3 will be a gigantic diff. [ It looks like 4.3 is calmer than 4.2 in most other subsystems, but we'll see - Linus ] Core changes: - It is possible configure groups in debugfs. - Consolidation of chained IRQ handler install/remove replacing all call sites where irq_set_handler_data() and irq_set_chained_handler() were done in succession with a combined call to irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(). This series was created by Thomas Gleixner after the problem was observed by Russell King. - Tglx also made another series of patches switching __irq_set_handler_locked() for irq_set_handler_locked() which is way cleaner. - Tglx also wrote a good bunch of patches to make use of irq_desc_get_xxx() accessors and avoid looking up irq_descs from IRQ numbers. The goal is to get rid of the irq number from the handlers in the IRQ flow which is nice. Driver feature enhancements: - Power management support for the SiRF SoC Atlas 7. - Power down support for the Qualcomm driver. - Intel Cherryview and Baytrail: switch drivers to use raw spinlocks in IRQ handlers to play nice with the realtime patch set. - Rework and new modes handling for Qualcomm SPMI-MPP. - Pinconf power source config for SH PFC. New drivers and subdrivers: - A new driver for Conexant Digicolor CX92755. - A new driver for UniPhier PH1-LD4, PH1-Pro4, PH1-sLD8, PH1-Pro5, ProXtream2 and PH1-LD6b SoC pin control support. - Reverse-egineered the S/PDIF settings for the Allwinner sun4i driver. - Support for Qualcomm Technologies QDF2xxx ARM64 SoCs - A new Freescale i.mx6ul subdriver.

* | cgroup: implement the PIDs subsystemAleksa Sarai2015-07-141-0/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a new single-purpose PIDs subsystem to limit the number of tasks that can be forked inside a cgroup. Essentially this is an implementation of RLIMIT_NPROC that applies to a cgroup rather than a process tree. However, it should be noted that organisational operations (adding and removing tasks from a PIDs hierarchy) will *not* be prevented. Rather, the number of tasks in the hierarchy cannot exceed the limit through forking. This is due to the fact that, in the unified hierarchy, attach cannot fail (and it is not possible for a task to overcome its PIDs cgroup policy limit by attaching to a child cgroup -- even if migrating mid-fork it must be able to fork in the parent first). PIDs are fundamentally a global resource, and it is possible to reach PID exhaustion inside a cgroup without hitting any reasonable kmemcg policy. Once you've hit PID exhaustion, you're only in a marginally better state than OOM. This subsystem allows PID exhaustion inside a cgroup to be prevented.

Drivers are still on staging - some API improvements for getting EDID data from media inputs/outputs - new DVB frontend driver for drx-j (ATSC) - one driver (it913x/it9137) got removed, in favor of an improvement on another driver (af9035) - added a skeleton V4L2 PCI driver at documentation - added a dual flash driver (lm3646) - added a new IR driver (img-ir) - added an IR scancode decoder for the Sharp protocol - some improvements at the usbtv driver, to allow its core to be reused. - added a new SDR driver (rtl2832u_sdr) - added a new tuner driver (msi001) - several improvements at em28xx driver to fix PM support, device removal and to split the V4L2 specific bits into a separate sub-driver - one driver got converted to videobuf2 (s2255drv) - the e4000 tuner driver now follows an improved binding model - some fixes at V4L2 compat32 code - several fixes and enhancements at videobuf2 code - some cleanups at V4L2 API documentation - usual driver enhancements, new board additions and misc fixups" [ NOTE! This merge effective drops commit 4329b93b283c ("of: Reduce indentation in of_graph_get_next_endpoint"). The of_graph_get_next_endpoint() function was moved and renamed by commit fd9fdb78a9bf ("[media] of: move graph helpers from drivers/media/v4l2-core to drivers/of"). It was originally called v4l2_of_get_next_endpoint() and lived in the file drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-of.c. In that original location, it was then fixed to support empty port nodes by commit b9db140c1e46 ("[media] v4l: of: Support empty port nodes"), and that commit clashes badly with the dropped "Reduce intendation" commit. I had to choose one or the other, and decided that the "Support empty port nodes" commit was more important ] * 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (426 commits) [media] em28xx-dvb: fix PCTV 461e tuner I2C binding Revert "[media] em28xx-dvb: fix PCTV 461e tuner I2C binding" [media] em28xx: fix PCTV 290e LNA oops [media] em28xx-dvb: fix PCTV 461e tuner I2C binding [media] m88ds3103: fix bug on .set_tone() [media] saa7134: fix WARN_ON during resume [media] v4l2-dv-timings: add module name, description, license [media] videodev2.h: add parenthesis around macro arguments [media] saa6752hs: depends on CRC32 [media] si4713: fix Kconfig dependencies [media] Sensoray 2255 uses videobuf2 [media] adv7180: free an interrupt on failure paths in init_device() [media] e4000: make VIDEO_V4L2 dependency optional [media] af9033: Don't export functions for the hardware filter [media] af9035: use af9033 PID filters [media] af9033: implement PID filter [media] rtl2832_sdr: do not use dynamic stack allocation [media] e4000: fix 32-bit build error [media] em28xx-audio: make sure audio is unmuted on open() [media] DocBook media: v4l2_format_sdr was renamed to v4l2_sdr_format ...
