Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Fix a commit 3021773c7c3e ("MIPS: DEC: Avoid la pseudo-instruction in
delay slots") regression and remove assembly errors:
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:162: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:163: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:229: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:230: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
triggering with with the CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS option set and the DADDIU
instruction. This is because with that option in place the instruction
becomes a macro, which expands to an LI/DADDU (or actually ADDIU/DADDU)
sequence that uses $at as a temporary register.
With CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS we only support `-msym32' compilation though,
and this is already enforced in arch/mips/Makefile, so choose the 32-bit
expansion variant for the supported configurations and then replace the
64-bit variant with #error just in case.

Commit 296e46db0073 ("MIPS: Don't unnecessarily include kmalloc.h into
<asm/cache.h>.") claimed that the inclusion of the machine's kmalloc.h
from asm/cache.h is unnecessary, but this is not true.
Without including kmalloc.h we don't get a definition for
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, which means we no longer suitably align DMA. Further
to this the definition of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN provided by linux/slab.h
ends up being set to the alignment of an unsigned long long value rather
than to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, which means that buffers allocated using
kmalloc may no longer be safely aligned for use with DMA.
Fix this by re-adding the include of kmalloc.h in asm/cache.h. This
reverts commit 296e46db0073 ("MIPS: Don't unnecessarily include
kmalloc.h into <asm/cache.h>.")

While testing cpu hoptlug (cpu down and up in loops) on kernel 4.4, it was
observed that occasionally check for cpu online will fail in kernel/cpu.c,
_cpu_up:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/kernel/cpu.c?h=v4.4.79#n485
518 /* Arch-specific enabling code. */
519 ret = __cpu_up(cpu, idle);
520
521 if (ret != 0)
522 goto out_notify;
523 BUG_ON(!cpu_online(cpu));
Reason is race between start_secondary and _cpu_up. cpu_callin_map is set
before cpu_online_mask. In __cpu_up, cpu_callin_map is waited for, but cpu
online mask is not, resulting in race in which secondary processor started
and set cpu_callin_map, but not yet set the online mask,resulting in above
BUG being hit.
Upstream differs in the area. cpu_online check is in bringup_wait_for_ap,
which is after cpu reached AP_ONLINE_IDLE,where secondary passed its start
function. Nonetheless, fix makes start_secondary safe and not depending on
other locks throughout the code. It protects as well against cpu_online
checks put in between sometimes in the future.
Fix this by moving completion after all flags are set.

This fixes a problem where the system gets stuck in a loop
unable to wakeup via power button in s2idle.
The problem happens because:
- press power button:
- system emits 0xc0 (power press), event ignored
- system emits 0xc1 (power release), event processed,
emited as KEY_POWER
- set wakeup_mode to true
- system goes to s2idle
- press power button
- system emits 0xc0 (power press), wakeup_mode is true,
system wakes
- system emits 0xc1 (power release), event processed,
emited as KEY_POWER
- system goes to s2idle again
To avoid this situation, process the presses (which matches what
intel-hid does too).
