Comment from arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:967:
If userspace is inside a transaction (whether active or
suspended) and FP/VMX/VSX instructions have ever been enabled
inside that transaction, then we have to keep them enabled
and keep the FP/VMX/VSX state loaded while ever the transaction
continues. The reason is that if we didn't, and subsequently
got a FP/VMX/VSX unavailable interrupt inside a transaction,
we don't know whether it's the same transaction, and thus we
don't know which of the checkpointed state and the ransactional
state to use.
restore_math() restore_fp() and restore_altivec() currently may not
restore the registers. It doesn't appear that this is more serious
than a performance penalty. If the math registers aren't restored the
userspace thread will still be run with the facility disabled.
Userspace will not be able to read invalid values. On the first access
it will take an facility unavailable exception and the kernel will
detected an active transaction, at which point it will abort the
transaction. There is the possibility for a pathological case
preventing any progress by transactions, however, transactions
are never guaranteed to make progress.

If the capi link is going down while the PSL owns a dirty cache line,
any access from the host for that data could lead to an Uncorrectable

So when resetting the capi adapter through sysfs, make sure the PSL
cache is flushed. It won't help if there are any active Process
Elements on the card, as the cache would likely get new dirty cache
lines immediately, but if resetting an idle adapter, it should avoid

Edge-rate:
As system and networking speeds increase, a signal's output transition,
also know as the edge rate or slew rate (V/ns), takes on greater importance
because high-speed signals come with a price. That price is an assortment of
interference problems like ringing on the line, signal overshoot and
undershoot, extended signal settling times, crosstalk noise, transmission
line reflections, false signal detection by the receiving device and
electromagnetic interference (EMI) -- all of which can negate the potential
gains designers are seeking when they try to increase system speeds through
the use of higher performance logic devices. The fact is, faster signaling
edge rates can cause a higher level of electrical noise or other type of
interference that can actually lead to slower line speeds and lower maximum
system frequencies. This parameter allow the board designers to change the
driving strange, and thereby change the EMI behavioral.
Edge-rate parameters (vddmac, edge-slowdown) get from Device Tree.

That just generally kills the machine, and makes debugging only much
harder, since the traces may long be gone.
Debugging by assert() is a disease. Don't do it. If you can continue,
you're much better off doing so with a live machine where you have a
much higher chance that the report actually makes it to the system logs,
rather than result in a machine that is just completely dead.
The only valid situation for BUG_ON() is when continuing is not an
option, because there is massive corruption. But if you are just
verifying that something is true, you warn about your broken assumptions
(preferably just once), and limp on.

Although rare, it's possible to hit PCI error early on device
probe, meaning possibly some structs are not entirely initialized,
and some might even be completely uninitialized, leading to NULL
pointer dereference.
The i40e driver currently presents a "bad" behavior if device hits
such early PCI error: firstly, the struct i40e_pf might not be
attached to pci_dev yet, leading to a NULL pointer dereference on
access to pf->state.
Even checking if the struct is NULL and avoiding the access in that
case isn't enough, since the driver cannot recover from PCI error
that early; in our experiments we saw multiple failures on kernel
log, like:
[549.664] i40e 0007:01:00.1: Initial pf_reset failed: -15
[549.664] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -15
[...]
[871.644] i40e 0007:01:00.1: The driver for the device stopped because the
device firmware failed to init. Try updating your NVM image.
[871.644] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -32
[...]
[872.516] i40e 0007:01:00.0: ARQ: Unknown event 0x0000 ignored
Between the first probe failure (error -15) and the second (error -32)
another PCI error happened due to the first bad probe. Also, driver
started to flood console with those ARQ event messages.
This patch will prevent these issues by allowing error recovery
mechanism to remove the failed device from the system instead of
trying to recover from early PCI errors during device probe.

This series contains fixes to i40e only.
Stefan Assmann provides the changes in this series to resolve an issue
where when we run out of MSIx vectors, iWARP gets disabled automatically.
First adds a check for "no vectors left" during MSIx vector allocation
for VMDq, which will prevent more vectors being allocated than available.
Then fixed the MSIx vector redistribution when we reach the hardware limit
for vectors so that additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc do not get
starved for vectors because the PF is hogging all the resources. Lastly,
fix the issue for flow director by moving the check for the reaching the
vector limit earlier in the code so that a decision can be made on
disabling flow director.

qed*: Add qedr infrastructure support
In the last couple of weeks we've been sending RFCs for the qedr
driver - the RoCE driver for QLogic FastLinQ 4xxxx line of adapters.
Latest RFC can be found at [1].
At Doug's advice [2], we've decided to split the series into two:
- first part contains the qed backbone that's necessary for all the
configurations relating to the qedr driver, as well as the qede
infrastructure that is used for communication between the qedr and qede.
- Second part consists of the actual qedr driver and introduces almost
no changes to qed/qede.
This is the first of said two parts. The second half would be sent
later this week.
The only 'oddity' in the devision are the Kconfig options -
As this series introduces both LL2 and QEDR-based logic in qed/qede,
I wanted to add the CONFIG_INFINIBAND_QEDR option here [with default n].
Otherwise, a lot of the code introduced would be dead-code [won't even
be compiled] until qedr is accepted.
As a result I've placed the config option in an odd place - under
qlogic's Kconfig. The second series would then remove that option
and add it in its correct place under the infiniband Kconfig.
[I'm fine with pushing it there to begin with, but I didn't want to
'contaminate' non-qlogic configuration files with half-baked options].
Dave - I don't think you were E-mailed with Doug's suggestion.
I think the notion was to have the two halves accepted side-by-side,
but actually the first has no dependency issues, so it's also
possible to simply take this first to net-next, and push the qedr
into rdma once it's merged. But it's basically up to you and Doug;
We'd align with whatever suits you best.

Here's the "big" char and misc driver update for 4.9-rc1.
Lots of little things here, all over the driver tree for subsystems that
flow through me. Nothing major that I can discern, full details are in

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:
- Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
drivers do not have to keep custom lists.
- Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
tip over to more lines removed than added.
- Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.
- Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.
- Convert another batch of notifier users.
The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
shipped to me by Andrew.
The remaining lot is targeted for 4.10 so that we finally can remove
the rest of the notifiers"

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq departement proudly presents:
- A rework of the core infrastructure to optimally spread interrupt
for multiqueue devices. The first version was a bit naive and
failed to take thread siblings and other details into account.
Developed in cooperation with Christoph and Keith.
- Proper delegation of softirqs to ksoftirqd, so if ksoftirqd is
active then no further softirq processsing on interrupt return
happens. Otherwise we try to delegate and still run another batch
of network packets in the irq return path, which then tries to
delegate to ksoftirqd .....
- A proper machine parseable sysfs based alternative for
/proc/interrupts.
- ACPI support for the GICV3-ITS and ARM interrupt remapping
- Two new irq chips from the ARM SoC zoo: STM32-EXTI and MVEBU-PIC
- A new irq chip for the JCore (SuperH)
- The usual pile of small fixlets in core and irqchip drivers"

Currently if the MSI-X vector limit is reached the sideband flow
director gets disabled. A bit too early to make that decision, as
vectors may get re-distributed. So move the check further back.

The driver allocates 1 vector per CPU thread and the current hardware
limit for vectors is 129 per PF. On systems with 128 or more threads
this currently means all vectors are used by the PF leaving no room for
additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc...
The code that should redistribute the vectors in this case is broken and
never triggers. Fixed the code so that it actually triggers if the
hardware limit is reached and adjust the number of queue pairs
accordingly.
Also the number of initially requested iWARP vectors was not properly
saved when the vector limit was reached, and therefore always zero.
Comparison with debug statement.
Before:
i40e 0000:2d:00.0: VMDq disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors
i40e 0000:2d:00.0: IWARP disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors
i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 128, VMDq 0, FDSB 0, iWARP 0
After:
i40e 0000:2d:00.0: MSI-X vector limit reached, attempting to redistribute vectors
i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 78, VMDq 8, FDSB 0, iWARP 42

During MSI-X vector allocation for VMDq, a check for "no vectors left"
was missing, add it. This prevents more vectors to be allocated than
available.

This was not done before the big patches because I only noticed
them afterwards. It has become much easier to see which handlers
are branched to from which exception vectors now, and to see
exactly what vector space is being used for what.

Simple substitution. This is possible now that both parts of the OOL

This is not an exception handler as such, it's called from
local_irq_enable(), not exception entry.
Also clean up some now redundant comments at the end of the
consolidation series.
