Commit 84c91b7ae07c (PM / hibernate: avoid unsafe pages in e820 reserved
regions) is reported to make resume from hibernation on Lenovo x230
unreliable, so revert it.

We will revisit the issue the commit in question was supposed to fix
in the future.

<id>urn:sha1:3810631332465d967ba5e27ea2c7dff2c9afac6c</id>
<content type='text'>
In preparation for adding support for quiescing timers in the final
stage of suspend-to-idle transitions, rework the freeze_enter()
function making the system wait on a wakeup event, the freeze_wake()
function terminating the suspend-to-idle loop and the mechanism by
which deep idle states are entered during suspend-to-idle.

First of all, introduce a simple state machine for suspend-to-idle
and make the code in question use it.

Second, prevent freeze_enter() from losing wakeup events due to race
conditions and ensure that the number of online CPUs won't change
while it is being executed.  In addition to that, make it force
all of the CPUs re-enter the idle loop in case they are in idle
states already (so they can enter deeper idle states if possible).

Next, drop cpuidle_use_deepest_state() and replace use_deepest_state
checks in cpuidle_select() and cpuidle_reflect() with a single
suspend-to-idle state check in cpuidle_idle_call().

Finally, introduce cpuidle_enter_freeze() that will simply find the
deepest idle state available to the given CPU and enter it using
cpuidle_enter().

<title>oom, PM: make OOM detection in the freezer path raceless</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c32b3cbe0d067a9cfae85aa70ba1e97ceba0ced7</id>

Commit 5695be142e20 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM
suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to
note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter.  The race
window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed
sufficient at the time of submission.

Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a
full solution.  That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing
exclusion, though.  This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem
RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier.

oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM
level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole
OOM invocation.

oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all
currently running OOM killer invocations.  Then it disable all the further
OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims.
Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp.  unmark_oom_victim.  The
last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable().
Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier.

The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be
safe before.  As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file
system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be
better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here.  Same applies
to the memcg OOM killer.

out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and
the callers are supposed to handle the situation.  The page allocation
path simply fails the allocation same as before.  The page fault path will
retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply
complain to the log.

Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after
try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an
OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't
finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite
time, though, because

	- the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die
	  on the way out from the exception)
	- it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further
	  allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not
	  acceptable at this stage
	- it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks
	  (try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and
	  work queues are not frozen yet

<content type='text'>
Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "We have a few new features this time, including a new SFI-based
  cpufreq driver, a new devfreq driver for Tegra Activity Monitor, a new
  devfreq class for providing its governors with raw utilization data
  and a new ACPI driver for AMD SoCs.

  Still, the majority of changes here are reworks of existing code to
  make it more straightforward or to prepare it for implementing new
  features on top of it.  The primary example is the rework of ACPI
  resources handling from Jiang Liu, Thomas Gleixner and Lv Zheng with
  support for IOAPIC hotplug implemented on top of it, but there is
  quite a number of changes of this kind in the cpufreq core, ACPICA,
  ACPI EC driver, ACPI processor driver and the generic power domains
  core code too.

  The most active developer is Viresh Kumar with his cpufreq changes.

  Specifics:

   - Rework of the core ACPI resources parsing code to fix issues in it
     and make using resource offsets more convenient and consolidation
     of some resource-handing code in a couple of places that have grown
     analagous data structures and code to cover the the same gap in the
     core (Jiang Liu, Thomas Gleixner, Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI-based IOAPIC hotplug support on top of the resources handling
     rework (Jiang Liu, Yinghai Lu).

   - ACPICA update to upstream release 20150204 including an interrupt
     handling rework that allows drivers to install raw handlers for
     ACPI GPEs which then become entirely responsible for the given GPE
     and the ACPICA core code won't touch it (Lv Zheng, David E Box,
     Octavian Purdila).

   - ACPI EC driver rework to fix several concurrency issues and other
     problems related to events handling on top of the ACPICA's new
     support for raw GPE handlers (Lv Zheng).

   - New ACPI driver for AMD SoCs analogous to the LPSS (Low-Power
     Subsystem) driver for Intel chips (Ken Xue).

   - Two minor fixes of the ACPI LPSS driver (Heikki Krogerus, Jarkko
     Nikula).

   - Two new blacklist entries for machines (Samsung 730U3E/740U3E and
     510R) where the native backlight interface doesn't work correctly
     while the ACPI one does (Hans de Goede).

   - Rework of the ACPI processor driver's handling of idle states to
     make the code more straightforward and less bloated overall (Rafael
     J Wysocki).

   - Assorted minor fixes related to ACPI and SFI (Andreas Ruprecht,
     Andy Shevchenko, Hanjun Guo, Jan Beulich, Rafael J Wysocki, Yaowei
     Bai).

   - PCI core power management modification to avoid resuming (some)
     runtime-suspended devices during system suspend if they are in the
     right states already (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - New SFI-based cpufreq driver for Intel platforms using SFI
     (Srinidhi Kasagar).

   - cpufreq core fixes, cleanups and simplifications (Viresh Kumar,
     Doug Anderson, Wolfram Sang).

   - SkyLake CPU support and other updates for the intel_pstate driver
     (Kristen Carlson Accardi, Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - cpufreq-dt driver cleanup (Markus Elfring).

   - Init fix for the ARM big.LITTLE cpuidle driver (Sudeep Holla).

   - Generic power domains core code fixes and cleanups (Ulf Hansson).

   - Operating Performance Points (OPP) core code cleanups and kernel
     documentation update (Nishanth Menon).

   - New dabugfs interface to make the list of PM QoS constraints
     available to user space (Nishanth Menon).

   - New devfreq driver for Tegra Activity Monitor (Tomeu Vizoso).

   - New devfreq class (devfreq_event) to provide raw utilization data
     to devfreq governors (Chanwoo Choi).

   - Assorted minor fixes and cleanups related to power management
     (Andreas Ruprecht, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Rickard Strandqvist, Pavel
     Machek, Todd E Brandt, Wonhong Kwon).

   - turbostat updates (Len Brown) and cpupower Makefile improvement
     (Sriram Raghunathan)"

hibernate_preallocate_memory() prints out that how many pages are
allocated, but it doesn't take into consideration the pages freed by
free_unnecessary_pages(). Therefore, it always shows the count more
than actually allocated.

<title>PM / QoS: Add debugfs support to view the list of constraints</title>

<content type='text'>
PM QoS requests are notoriously hard to debug and made even
more so due to their highly dynamic nature. Having visibility
into the internal data representation per constraint allows
us to have much better appreciation of potential issues or
bad usage by drivers in the system.

So introduce for all classes of PM QoS, an entry in
/sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos that shall show all the current
requests as well as the snapshot of the value these requests
boil down to. For example:
==&gt; /sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos/cpu_dma_latency &lt;==
1: 4444: Active
2: 2000000000: Default
3: 2000000000: Default
4: 2000000000: Default
Type=Minimum, Value=4444, Requests: active=1 / total=4

==&gt; /sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos/memory_bandwidth &lt;==
Empty!

...

The actual value listed will have their meaning based
on the QoS it is on, the 'Type' indicates what logic
it would use to collate the information - Minimum,
Maximum, or Sum. Value is the collation of all requests.
This interface also compares the values with the defaults
for the QoS class and marks the ones that are
currently active.

SRCU is not necessary to be compiled by default in all cases. For tinification
efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable.

The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new
Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making
use of SRCU are selected.

If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all.
