This prepares to move CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING from x86 to a common
place.  We need to eliminate potential issues beforehand.

If it is enabled for arm, Clang build results in the following modpost
warning:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1124): Section mismatch in reference from the function setup_machine_tags() to the function .init.text:early_print()
  The function setup_machine_tags() references the function __init early_print().
  This is often because setup_machine_tags lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of early_print is wrong.

<title>ARM: prevent tracing IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE</title>

<id>be167862ae7dd85c56d385209a4890678e1b0488</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "compiler: allow all arches to enable
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING", v3.

This patch (of 11):

When function tracing for IPIs is enabled, we get a warning for an
overflow of the ipi_types array with the IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE type as
triggered by raise_nmi():

  arch/arm/kernel/smp.c: In function 'raise_nmi':
  arch/arm/kernel/smp.c:489:2: error: array subscript is above array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds]
    trace_ipi_raise(target, ipi_types[ipinr]);

This is a correct warning as we actually overflow the array here.

This patch raise_nmi() to call __smp_cross_call() instead of
smp_cross_call(), to avoid calling into ftrace.  For clarification, I'm
also adding a two new code comments describing how this one is special.

The warning appears to have shown up after commit e7273ff49acf ("ARM:
8488/1: Make IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE a "non-secure" SGI"), which changed the
number assignment from '15' to '8', but as far as I can tell has existed
since the IPI tracepoints were first introduced.  If we decide to
backport this patch to stable kernels, we probably need to backport
e7273ff49acf as well.

<title>cpufreq: Call transition notifier only once for each policy</title>
<updated>2019-05-10T10:20:36+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=df24014abe3694e7c34ce5e50248611b7a93fe83'/>
<id>df24014abe3694e7c34ce5e50248611b7a93fe83</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the notifiers are called once for each CPU of the policy-&gt;cpus
cpumask. It would be more optimal if the notifier can be called only
once and all the relevant information be provided to it. Out of the 23
drivers that register for the transition notifiers today, only 4 of them
do per-cpu updates and the callback for the rest can be called only once
for the policy without any impact.

This would also avoid multiple function calls to the notifier callbacks
and reduce multiple iterations of notifier core's code (which does
locking as well).

This patch adds pointer to the cpufreq policy to the struct
cpufreq_freqs, so the notifier callback has all the information
available to it with a single call. The five drivers which perform
per-cpu updates are updated to use the cpufreq policy. The freqs-&gt;cpu
field is redundant now and is removed.

Currently, the notifiers are called once for each CPU of the policy-&gt;cpus
cpumask. It would be more optimal if the notifier can be called only
once and all the relevant information be provided to it. Out of the 23
drivers that register for the transition notifiers today, only 4 of them
do per-cpu updates and the callback for the rest can be called only once
for the policy without any impact.

This would also avoid multiple function calls to the notifier callbacks
and reduce multiple iterations of notifier core's code (which does
locking as well).

This patch adds pointer to the cpufreq policy to the struct
cpufreq_freqs, so the notifier callback has all the information
available to it with a single call. The five drivers which perform
per-cpu updates are updated to use the cpufreq policy. The freqs-&gt;cpu
field is redundant now and is removed.

Pull stack trace updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "So Thomas looked at the stacktrace code recently and noticed a few
  weirdnesses, and we all know how such stories of crummy kernel code
  meeting German engineering perfection end: a 45-patch series to clean
  it all up! :-)

  Here's the changes in Thomas's words:

   'Struct stack_trace is a sinkhole for input and output parameters
    which is largely pointless for most usage sites. In fact if embedded
    into other data structures it creates indirections and extra storage
    overhead for no benefit.

    Looking at all usage sites makes it clear that they just require an
    interface which is based on a storage array. That array is either on
    stack, global or embedded into some other data structure.

    Some of the stack depot usage sites are outright wrong, but
    fortunately the wrongness just causes more stack being used for
    nothing and does not have functional impact.

    Another oddity is the inconsistent termination of the stack trace
    with ULONG_MAX. It's pointless as the number of entries is what
    determines the length of the stored trace. In fact quite some call
    sites remove the ULONG_MAX marker afterwards with or without nasty
    comments about it. Not all architectures do that and those which do,
    do it inconsistenly either conditional on nr_entries == 0 or
    unconditionally.

    The following series cleans that up by:

      1) Removing the ULONG_MAX termination in the architecture code

      2) Removing the ULONG_MAX fixups at the call sites

      3) Providing plain storage array based interfaces for stacktrace
         and stackdepot.

      4) Cleaning up the mess at the callsites including some related
         cleanups.

      5) Removing the struct stack_trace based interfaces

    This is not changing the struct stack_trace interfaces at the
    architecture level, but it removes the exposure to the generic
    code'"
