<title>habanalabs: set clock gating per engine</title>

For debugging purposes, we need to allow the root user better control of
the clock gating feature of the DMA and compute engines. Therefore, change
the clock gating debugfs interface to be bitmask instead of true/false.
Each bit represents a different engine, according to gaudi_engine_id enum.

See debugfs documentation for more details.

<id>625d3449788f85569096780592549d0340e9c0c7</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 8ece3b3eb576a78d2e67ad4c3a80a39fa6708809.

This commit broke userspace. Bash uses ESPIPE to determine whether or
not the file should be read using "unbuffered I/O", which means reading
1 byte at a time instead of 128 bytes at a time. I used to use bash to
read through kmsg in a really quite nasty way:

    while read -t 0.1 -r line 2&gt;/dev/null || [[ $? -ne 142 ]]; do
       echo "SARU $line"
    done &lt; /dev/kmsg

This will show all lines that can fit into the 128 byte buffer, and skip
lines that don't. That's pretty awful, but at least it worked.

With this change, bash now tries to do 1-byte reads, which means it
skips all the lines, which is worse than before.

Now, I don't really care very much about this, and I'm already look for
a workaround. But I did just spend an hour trying to figure out why my
scripts were broken. Either way, it makes no difference to me personally
whether this is reverted, but it might be something to consider. If you
declare that "trying to read /dev/kmsg with bash is terminally stupid
anyway," I might be inclined to agree with you. But do note that bash
uses lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR)==&gt;ESPIPE to determine whether or not it's
reading from a pipe.

Implement support for fetching nvdimm health information via
H_SCM_HEALTH hcall as documented in Ref[1]. The hcall returns a pair
of 64-bit bitmap, bitwise-and of which is then stored in
'struct papr_scm_priv' and subsequently partially exposed to
user-space via newly introduced dimm specific attribute
'papr/flags'. Since the hcall is costly, the health information is
cached and only re-queried, 60s after the previous successful hcall.

The patch also adds a  documentation text describing flags reported by
the the new sysfs attribute 'papr/flags' is also introduced at
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem.

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we've added some knobs to enhance compression feature
  and harden testing environment. In addition, we've fixed several bugs
  reported from Android devices such as long discarding latency, device
  hanging during quota_sync, etc.

  Enhancements:
   - support lzo-rle algorithm
   - add two ioctls to release and reserve blocks for compression
   - support partial truncation/fiemap on compressed file
   - introduce sysfs entries to attach IO flags explicitly
   - add iostat trace point along with read io stat

  Bug fixes:
   - fix long discard latency
   - flush quota data by f2fs_quota_sync correctly
   - fix to recover parent inode number for power-cut recovery
   - fix lz4/zstd output buffer budget
   - parse checkpoint mount option correctly
   - avoid inifinite loop to wait for flushing node/meta pages
   - manage discard space correctly

  And some refactoring and clean up patches were added"

Pull x86 srbds fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The 9th episode of the dime novel "The performance killer" with the
  subtitle "Slow Randomizing Boosts Denial of Service".

  SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from
  the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New
  microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of
  RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten
  before it is released for reuse. This is equivalent to a full bus
  lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in
  parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a
  locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two
  cachelines at once.

  The mitigation support comes with the usual pile of unpleasant
  ingredients:

   - command line options

   - sysfs file

   - microcode checks

   - a list of vulnerable CPUs identified by model and stepping this
     time which requires stepping match support for the cpu match logic.

   - the inevitable slowdown of affected CPUs"

This patch adds another way to attach bio flags to node writes.

Description:   Give a way to attach REQ_META|FUA to node writes
               given temperature-based bits. Now the bits indicate:
               *      REQ_META     |      REQ_FUA      |
               *    5 |    4 |   3 |    2 |    1 |   0 |
               * Cold | Warm | Hot | Cold | Warm | Hot |
