This small series adds support for Transparent Huge Pages and hugetlbfs pages for KVM on the arm and arm64 architectures. Measurements have shown that using huge pages in for stage-2 mappings provides up to more than 15% performance increase for some workloads. The patch series applies to kvm/next, but depends on the patch sent earlier: "ARM: KVM: Fix unaligned unmap_range leak" Christoffer Dall (3): KVM: Move gfn_to_index to x86 specific code KVM: ARM: Get rid of KVM_HPAGE_XXX defines KVM: ARM: Transparent huge pages and hugetlbfs support arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 5 - arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_mmu.h | 17 +++- arch/arm/kvm/mmu.c | 200 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_mmu.h | 12 ++- arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 7 ++ include/linux/kvm_host.h | 7 -- 6 files changed, 201 insertions(+), 47 deletions(-) -- 1.7.10.4

[PATCH 000/228] CPUFreq: cleanup stuff for 3.13

by Viresh Kumar

This is my biggest patchset ever and it might not happen again in my entire career. I hope I haven't screwed up here :) CPUFreq cleanup patches are ready to hit linux-next (I hope it doesn't turn out into horror stories, where it broke all possible architectures where Linux runs :)) Most of these are build tested only, Also done by: Fengguang Wu's build bot. All of these were sent separately in smaller patchsets earlier and now merged together as a single set. Some parts are reviewed by platform maintainers and their Acks are included in the patches (Sorry if I missed any).. These are rebased over today's pm/linux-next: f74a274 Merge branch 'pm-cpufreq-next' into linux-next with following patches over it, which I expect to get into Rafael's tree before these: cpufreq: use correct values of cpus in __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish() cpufreq: distinguish drivers that do asynchronous notifications cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized cpufreq: Create cpufreq_transition_complete() cpufreq: powernow-k8: mark freq transition complete on error cases There are few new patches here which haven't been sent yet and only came out after discussions with Maintainers about their platforms: cpufreq: loongson2: use cpufreq_generic_init() routine cpufreq: davinci: use cpufreq_generic_init() routine cpufreq: cris: use cpufreq_generic_init() routine cpufreq: omap: use cpufreq_generic_init() routine As suggested by Rafael earlier, he might not apply all at once and will give people some chance to test sets one by one.. So, first set now, next one after few days. So, I am marking different sets with patch numbers to make it easier for Rafael. - Patch 1->8: Generic cleanup of cpufreq core (First batch) - Patch 9->54: Mostly about cpufreq_table_validate_and_show() helper (First batch) - Patch 55->89: New generic routines for cpufreq drivers (First/Second batch) - Patch 90->126: About calling cpufreq_driver->get() from core (First/Second batch) - Patch 127->146: Generic init() routine (First/Second batch) - Patch 147->180: Light weight ->target() routine (Third batch) - Patch 181->211: Call notifiers from core instead of target() (Third/Fourth batch) - Patch 212->228: Generic get() (Fifth batch) As suggested by Amit here, Linaro may try to test linux-next with these patches on Linaro's board farm (Mostly ARM and X86).. https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/11/346 -- viresh Hans-Christian Egtvedt (1): cpufreq: at32ap: add frequency table Viresh Kumar (227): cpufreq: Remove extra blank line cpufreq: don't break string

[PATCH 00/21] CPUIdle: Minor cleanups for 3.13

by Viresh Kumar

Hi Rafael/Daniel, This is a small cleanup patchset for CPUIdle which can go in 3.13 if it looks okay to you guys.. Mostly trivial patches but few are doing good/significant changes. Tested on my thinkpad with suspend/resume and didn't found any broken stuff with it.

[PATCH v5 0/4] Target CPU=Host implementation for KVM ARM/ARM64

by Anup Patel

It will be very useful for user space (QEMU/KVMTOOL) if it has a method of querying VCPU target type matching to underlying Host. We can use such querying mechanism and implement machine models in user space where VCPU target type is always same-as/similar-to underlying Host (i.e. Target CPU=Host). This patch series implements KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET vm ioclt for querying VCPU target type matching underlying host. Using this new ioctl we can implement VCPU target CPU=Host in user space. Also, it is not mandatory to call KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET vm ioctl and the old method of trying all possible target types using the KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ioctl to initialize VCPU works fine. V5: - Update documentation based on review comments V4: - Fixed files exchanged between patches - For now return zeroed features in struct kvm_vcpu_init instance V3: - Return -ENODEV if no preferred target available for host - Make KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET ioctl as vm ioctl V2: - Renamed the ioclt to KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET - Return struct kvm_vcpu_init instace instead of just target type V1: - Initial patch-set with ioctl named as KVM_ARM_SUITABLE_TARGET Anup Patel (4): ARM: KVM: Implement kvm_vcpu_preferred_target() function ARM64: KVM: Implement kvm_vcpu_preferred_target() function ARM/ARM64: KVM: Implement KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET ioctl KVM: Add documentation for KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET ioctl Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 1 + arch/arm/kvm/arm.c | 13 +++++++++++++ arch/arm/kvm/guest.c | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 1 + arch/arm64/kvm/guest.c | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ include/uapi/linux/kvm.h | 1 + 7 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) -- 1.7.9.5

[PATCH] tick: make sleep length calculation more accurate

by Daniel Lezcano

The sleep_length is computed in the tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick function but it is used later in the code with in between the local irq enabled. cpu_idle_loop tick_nohz_idle_enter [ exits with local irq enabled ] __tick_nohz_idle_enter tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick ... arch_cpu_idle menu_select [ uses here 'sleep_length' ] ... Between the computation of the sleep length and its usage, some interrupts can occur, making the sleep length shorter than actually it is. This patch fixes that by moving the sleep_length computation in the tick_nohz_get_sleep_length function and store the next_event for the device instead of the sleep_length.

[adding linaro-kernel, Andrey] Yes, it seems the base64 component is a misnomer, at least for now. Meanwhile, if this patch is targeted to the main linaro kernel, please send via the linaro-kernel list, cc'ing linaro-networking. If not, then perhaps a separate .conf file is in order? Anyway, I think we'd all prefer a resolution within the main linaro kernel for hugepage support. > > and we are building with it in our ci/job/linux-lng* scripts... perhaps those should be patched as well.

Automated DT boot report for various ARM defconfigs. Boot test simply checks if kernel can boot to initramfs with busybox and run some basic commands (e.g. 'cat /proc/cpuinfo').
