2014-04-28gpio: support threaded interrupts in irqchip helpersLinus Walleij
Some off-chip GPIO expanders need to be communicated by I2C or SPI traffic, but may still support IRQs. By the sleeping nature of such buses, such IRQ handlers need to be threaded. Support such handlers in the gpiochip irqchip helpers by flagging IRQs as threaded if the .can_sleep property of the gpiochip is true. Helpfully deny registration of chained IRQ handlers if the .can_sleep property is set, as such chips will invariably need a nested handler rather than a chained handler.

2014-04-28irqchip: armanda: Sanitize set_irq_affinity()Thomas Gleixner
The set_irq_affinity() function has two issues: 1) It has no protection against selecting an offline cpu from the given mask. 2) It pointlessly restricts the affinity masks to have a single cpu set. This collides with the irq migration code of arm. irq affinity is set to core 3 core 3 goes offline migration code sets mask to cpu_online_mask and calls the irq_set_affinity() callback of the irq_chip which fails due to bit 0,1,2 set. So instead of doing silly for_each_cpu() loops just pick any bit of the mask which intersects with the online mask. Get rid of fiddling with the default_irq_affinity as well.

2014-04-28Merge branch 'master' of ↵David S. Miller
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Jacob provides a i40e patch to remove ptp_tx_work() because it conflicts with the interrupt-based handler and will cause spurious warning messages to be displayed in the kernel log. Since the hardware can properly trigger an interrupt, we do not need to poll for an available timestamp in a work queue any more. Greg provides two patches for i40e, first to retain the MAC filter list when changing a port VLAN. Second fixes an issue where the function to set the VF MAC address was not taking the port VLAN filter into account when setting/clearing/resetting the VF's host administered MAC address. Mitch provides three patches for i40evf, first adds support for getting and setting RSS hashing options, RSS LUT entries, and getting the number of device channels from ethtool. Fixes a panic that woudl occur in the VF if the PF driver failed or was removed from the host kernel. Shannon adds driver version string to the driver version command so that can be passed down through the firmware to low-level NC-SI functions. Neerav provides several patches, first redistributes queue vectors after DCB reconfiguration because the total number of queues that are configured for a VSI may change based on a change in the total number of TCs enabled as a result of a change in the DCB configuration based on DCBX. Second, allows the driver probe to continue when querying DCB config fails. Lastly, provides changes to retrieve and store missing link config information that was not being cached in the struct i40e_link_status. Kevin provides a couple of patches, first to change a int variable type to u16 to avoid a typecheck failure. Second to update a function parameters to remove an argument which is no longer used. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2014-04-28qeth: Fix default queue setting in priority queueingStefan Raspl
The default queue for queueing modes prio_queueing_prec and prio_queueing_tos is supposed to be QETH_DEFAULT_QUEUE. However, neither mode will reset the default default_out_queue value when enabled, leaving a previously set value activate as the default. E.g. enabling one of the fixed queueing modes, e.g. no_prio_queueing:0, and successively switching to any of the prio_queueing_* modes will leave default_out_queue at the previous (wrong) value 0.

2014-04-28[SCSI] mpt2sas: Don't disable device twice at suspend.Tyler Stachecki
On suspend, _scsih_suspend calls mpt2sas_base_free_resources, which in turn calls pci_disable_device if the device is enabled prior to suspending. However, _scsih_suspend also calls pci_disable_device itself. Thus, in the event that the device is enabled prior to suspending, pci_disable_device will be called twice. This patch removes the duplicate call to pci_disable_device in _scsi_suspend as it is both unnecessary and results in a kernel oops.

2014-04-28i40e: Redistribute queue vectors after DCB reconfigurationNeerav Parikh
The queue vectors are originally distributed among the total number of queues that are configured for a given VSI. The number of queues that are configured for a VSI depends on the number of TCs that are enabled for the VSI at VSI setup/creation time. But, the total number of queues that are configured for a VSI may change based on change in the total number of TCs enabled as a result of change in DCB configuration based on DCBX. Hence, it is required for the queue vectors to be redistributed when the total queues that are configured for a given VSI changes. Without redistributing the vectors the queues that are configured for the newly enabled TCs may not be able to do any Tx/Rx.

2014-04-28ACPI / PAD: call schedule() when need_resched() is trueTony Camuso
The purpose of the acpi_pad driver is to implement the "processor power aggregator" device as described in the ACPI 4.0 spec section 8.5. It takes requests from the BIOS (via ACPI) to put a specified number of CPUs into idle, in order to save power, until further notice. It does this by creating high-priority threads that try to keep the CPUs in a high C-state (using the monitor/mwait CPU instructions). The mwait() call is in a loop that checks periodically if the thread should end and a few other things. It was discovered through testing that the power_saving threads were causing the system to consume more power than the system was consuming before the threads were created. A counter in the main loop of power_saving_thread() revealed that it was spinning. The mwait() instruction was not keeping the CPU in a high C state very much if at all. Here is a simplification of the loop in function power_saving_thread() in drivers/acpi/acpi_pad.c while (!kthread_should_stop()) { : try_to_freeze() : while (!need_resched()) { : if (!need_resched()) __mwait(power_saving_mwait_eax, 1); : if (jiffies > expire_time) { do_sleep = 1; break; } } } If need_resched() returns true, then mwait() is not called. It was returning true because of things like timer interrupts, as in the following sequence. hrtimer_interrupt->__run_hrtimer->tick_sched_timer-> update_process_times-> rcu_check_callbacks->rcu_pending->__rcu_pending->set_need_resched Kernels 3.5.0-rc2+ do not exhibit this problem, because a patch to try_to_freeze() in include/linux/freezer.h introduces a call to might_sleep(), which ultimately calls schedule() to clear the reschedule flag and allows the the loop to execute the call to mwait(). However, the changes to try_to_freeze are unrelated to acpi_pad, and it does not seem like a good idea to rely on an unrelated patch in a function that could later be changed and reintroduce this bug. Therefore, it seems better to make an explicit call to schedule() in the outer loop when the need_resched flag is set.
