<title>io-wq: provide IO_WQ_* constants for IORING_REGISTER_IOWQ_MAX_WORKERS arg items</title>

<id>dd47c104533dedb90434a3f142e94a671ac623a6</id>
<content type='text'>
The items passed in the array pointed by the arg parameter
of IORING_REGISTER_IOWQ_MAX_WORKERS io_uring_register operation
carry certain semantics: they refer to different io-wq worker categories;
provide IO_WQ_* constants in the UAPI, so these categories can be referenced
in the user space code.

Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams:

 - Fix detection of CXL host bridges to filter out disabled ACPI0016
   devices in the ACPI DSDT.

 - Fix kernel lockdown integration to disable raw commands when raw PCI
   access is disabled.

 - Fix a broken debug message.

 - Add support for "Get Partition Info". I.e. enumerate the split
   between volatile and persistent capacity on bi-modal CXL memory
   expanders.

 - Re-factor the core by subject area. This is a work in progress.

 - Prepare libnvdimm to understand CXL labels in addition to EFI labels.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:
   - Page ownership tracking between host EL1 and EL2
   - Rely on userspace page tables to create large stage-2 mappings
   - Fix incompatibility between pKVM and kmemleak
   - Fix the PMU reset state, and improve the performance of the virtual
     PMU
   - Move over to the generic KVM entry code
   - Address PSCI reset issues w.r.t. save/restore
   - Preliminary rework for the upcoming pKVM fixed feature
   - A bunch of MM cleanups
   - a vGIC fix for timer spurious interrupts
   - Various cleanups

  s390:
   - enable interpretation of specification exceptions
   - fix a vcpu_idx vs vcpu_id mixup

  x86:
   - fast (lockless) page fault support for the new MMU
   - new MMU now the default
   - increased maximum allowed VCPU count
   - allow inhibit IRQs on KVM_RUN while debugging guests
   - let Hyper-V-enabled guests run with virtualized LAPIC as long as
     they do not enable the Hyper-V "AutoEOI" feature
   - fixes and optimizations for the toggling of AMD AVIC (virtualized
     LAPIC)
   - tuning for the case when two-dimensional paging (EPT/NPT) is
     disabled
   - bugfixes and cleanups, especially with respect to vCPU reset and
     choosing a paging mode based on CR0/CR4/EFER
   - support for 5-level page table on AMD processors

  Generic:
   - MMU notifier invalidation callbacks do not take mmu_lock unless
     necessary
   - improved caching of LRU kvm_memory_slot
   - support for histogram statistics
   - add statistics for halt polling and remote TLB flush requests"

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "We mostly have various improvements and refactoring all over the place
  but also some interesting new features - like the virtio GPIO driver
  that allows guest VMs to use host's GPIOs. We also have a new/old GPIO
  driver for rockchip - this one has been split out of the pinctrl
  driver.

  Summary:

   - new driver: gpio-virtio allowing a guest VM running linux to access
     GPIO lines provided by the host

   - split the GPIO driver out of the rockchip pin control driver

   - add support for a new model to gpio-aspeed-sgpio, refactor the
     driver and use generic device property interfaces, improve property
     sanitization

   - add ACPI support to gpio-tegra186

   - improve the code setting the line names to support multiple GPIO
     banks per device

   - constify a bunch of OF functions in the core GPIO code and make the
     declaration for one of the core OF functions we use consistent
     within its header

   - use software nodes in intel_quark_i2c_gpio

   - add support for the gpio-line-names property in gpio-mt7621

   - use the standard GPIO function for setting the GPIO names in
     gpio-brcmstb

   - fix a bunch of leaks and other bugs in gpio-mpc8xxx

   - use generic pm callbacks in gpio-ml-ioh

   - improve resource management and PM handling in gpio-mlxbf2

   - modernize and improve the gpio-dwapb driver

   - coding style improvements in gpio-rcar

   - documentation fixes and improvements

   - update the MAINTAINERS entry for gpio-zynq

   - minor tweaks in several drivers"

<title>vduse: Introduce VDUSE - vDPA Device in Userspace</title>
<updated>2021-09-06T11:20:58+00:00</updated>

<id>c8a6153b6c59d95c0e091f053f6f180952ade91e</id>
<content type='text'>
This VDUSE driver enables implementing software-emulated vDPA
devices in userspace. The vDPA device is created by
ioctl(VDUSE_CREATE_DEV) on /dev/vduse/control. Then a char device
interface (/dev/vduse/$NAME) is exported to userspace for device
emulation.

In order to make the device emulation more secure, the device's
control path is handled in kernel. A message mechnism is introduced
to forward some dataplane related control messages to userspace.

And in the data path, the DMA buffer will be mapped into userspace
address space through different ways depending on the vDPA bus to
which the vDPA device is attached. In virtio-vdpa case, the MMU-based
software IOTLB is used to achieve that. And in vhost-vdpa case, the
DMA buffer is reside in a userspace memory region which can be shared
to the VDUSE userspace processs via transferring the shmfd.

For more details on VDUSE design and usage, please see the follow-on
Documentation commit.

NB(mst): when merging this with
b542e383d8c0 ("eventfd: Make signal recursion protection a task bit")
replace eventfd_signal_count with eventfd_signal_allowed,
and drop the previous
("eventfd: Export eventfd_wake_count to modules").
