Merge branch 'mv88e6171_indirect_phy'
Andrew Lunn says:
====================
Indirect phy access for mv88e6171
These two patches allow the mv88e6171 driver to access the port phys
using indirect addressing. Depending on pin strapping, the switch
either uses a single address on the host MDIO bus, requiring the port
phys are accessed indirectly, or the switch uses a number of addresses
on the host bus and the phys can be directly accessed.
The 370RD, the first supported platform to use the 6171 uses multiple
addresses, so this indirect mode was not required. However the
WRT1900AC has the switch configured to use a single address, and so
indirect access is needed.
The mv88e6352 already has all the needed code. Refactor it into the
shared mv88e6xxx and then use it in the mv88e6171 driver.
Tested on the 370RD and WRT1900AC.
It would be good if Guenter Roeck could test on his platform to ensure
i've not broken anything for the mv88e6352.

md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write.
Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded.
A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data
blocks, and one may be missing.
Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code
spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed.
So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.

New primitive in there is debugfs_create_automount(name, parent, func,

scripts/gdb: disable pagination while printing from breakpoint handler
While reporting the (refreshed) list of modules on automatic updates we
may hit the page boundary of the output console and cause a stop if
pagination is enabled. However, gdb does not accept user input while
running over the breakpoint handler. So we get stuck, and the user is
forced to interrupt gdb.
Resolve this by disabling pagination during automatic symbol updates. We
restore the user's configuration once done.

scripts/gdb: port to python3 / gdb7.7
I tried to use these scripts in an ubuntu 14.04 host (gdb 7.7 compiled
against python 3.3) but there were several errors.
I believe this patch fixes these issues so that the commands now work (I
tested lx-symbols, lx-dmesg, lx-lsmod).
Main issues that needed to be resolved:
* In python 2 iterators have a "next()" method. In python 3 it is
__next__() instead (so let's just add both).
* In older python versions there was an implicit conversion
in object.__format__() (used when an object is in string.format())
where it was converting the object to str first and then
calling str's __format__(). This has now been removed so
we must explicitly convert to str the objects for which
we need to keep this behavior.
* In dmesg.py: in python 3 log_buf is now a "memoryview" object
which needs to be converted to a string in order to use string
methods like "splitlines()". Luckily memoryview exists in
python 2.7.6 as well, so we can convert log_buf to memoryview
and use the same code in both python 2 and python 3.
This version of the patch has now been tested with gdb 7.7 and both python
3.4 and python 2.7.6 (I think asking for at least python 2.7.6 is a
reasonable requirement instead of complicating the code with version
checks etc).

scripts/gdb: add lx-symbols command
This is probably the most useful helper when debugging kernel modules:
lx-symbols first reloads vmlinux. Then it searches recursively for *.ko
files in the specified paths and the current directory. Finally it walks
the kernel's module list, issuing the necessary add-symbol-file command
for each loaded module so that gdb knows which module symbol corresponds
to which address. It also looks up variable sections (bss, data, rodata)
and appends their address to the add-symbole-file command line. This
allows to access global module variables just like any other variable.

scripts/gdb: add infrastructure
This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python
helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb.
The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when
opening <objfile>. Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the
main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux.
The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb
commands and functions. To avoid polluting the source directory with
compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory.
Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we
depend on gdb >= 7.2.
This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.

eventfd: don't take the spinlock in eventfd_poll
The spinlock in eventfd_poll is trying to protect the count of events so
it can decide if it should return POLLIN, POLLERR, or POLLOUT. But,
because of the way we drop the lock after calling poll_wait, and drop it
again before returning, we have the same pile of races with the lock as
we do with a single read of ctx->count().
This replaces the lock with a read barrier and single read.
eventfd_write does a single bump of ctx->count, so this should not add
new races with adding events. eventfd_read is similar, it will do a
single decrement with the lock held, and so we're making the race with
concurrent readers slightly larger.
This spinlock is the top CPU user in kernel code during one of our
workloads. Removing it gives us a ~2% boost.

vmcore: fix PT_NOTE n_namesz, n_descsz overflow issue
When updating PT_NOTE header size (ie. p_memsz), an overflow issue
happens with the following bogus note entry:
n_namesz = 0xFFFFFFFF
n_descsz = 0x0
n_type = 0x0
This kind of note entry should be dropped during updating p_memsz. But
because n_namesz is 32bit, after (n_namesz + 3) & (~3), it's overflow to
0x0, the note entry size looks sane and reserved.
When userspace (eg. crash utility) is trying to access such bogus note,
it could lead to an unexpected behavior (eg. crash utility segment fault
because it's reading bogus address).
The source of bogus note hasn't been identified yet. At least we could
drop the bogus note so user space wouldn't be surprised.
