- fixed anx7688 fw flashing timeout
- added Samuel's patches:
  - allow to use RTC wakeup when powered off
  - NVMEM driver for RTC data registers
- pulled in some fixes from linux-next into fixes-5.11
- disable MMC runtime PM again (causes issues on H5/H6 https://megous.com/dl/tmp/1eec9b1c7f03ad93.png)
- used nvmem reboot driver (suggested by Samuel in RFC patch) for rebooting to FEL,
  eMMC bootloader, various p-boot boot configs on either eMMC or SD card's bootfs filesystems,
  boot menu, etc. via reboot() syscall with extra arg (see LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2)
  (p-boot is also updated to support this mechanism, as of 2021-02-15)

2021-01-25:
- rebased on top of v5.11-rc5
- fix 8723cs bluetooth DT to load pinephone BT config file correctly (add -pinephone postfix)

2020-12-11:
- rebased on top of linus/master
2020-12-07:
- rebased on top of 5.10-rc7
2020-12-05:
- modem power driver: add more powerup modes and change interface for dumb and fastboot powerup
  - you can now write 2, 3 or 4 to .../powered sysfs file to select differnt powerup mode from
    the normal one (1)
  - this is useful for selecting alternate userspace configurations early in boot to allow
    tracing the userspace processes from early on for reverse engineering, and in the near
    future, it will be used to switch between original and fully-FOSS userspace code
    running on the modem's APPS CPU on powerup
    - see https://xnux.eu/log/#028
2020-12-02:
- fix WiFi blocking suspend
- improve modem power driver interaction with kernel's autosleep
- shorten resume times from 1.2s to 400ms (wifi driver optimization)
2020-11-30:
- I improved the anx7688 driver to actually respect PD capabilities of the source,
  and don't overload it. This should make it more likely to work with the USB-C
  docks when docks are powered.
- Pine64 dock can provide either 500mA when powered from regular USB-A charger
  (regardless of what kind of charger it is, it can't use more current from it)
- With my 3A PD charger, Pine64 dock will advertise 2600mA and Pinephone will
  now respect this limit.
- rebase on linus/master (5.10-rc6 atm)
- increase I2C clock for sensors and touchscreen/anx7688 from 100kHz to 400kHz
- added patch from https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/dri-devel/cover/20200222024210.18697-1-yuq825@gmail.com/#23237865

My kernel's main integration branch is 'orange-pi-$VER' (this one).
No other branch is supposed to work alone. My defconfigs are tested
and work on the boards I support. Read the README.md for more info.

Only my branches based on the current mainline kernel branch are
maintained (those are usually the -rc# kernels!). You can find the
current mainline version here https://www.kernel.org/ (mainline: ...)

My prebuilt kernels can be found at https://xff.cz/kernels/ You can
use them to test that your board works, or just run them without
bothering with building everything yourself. I run them on all my
boards.

My website is https://xnux.eu and may contain useful advice.

Good luck!

- disable MMC runtime PM again (causes issues on H5/H6 https://megous.com/dl/tmp/1eec9b1c7f03ad93.png)
- used nvmem reboot driver (suggested by Samuel in RFC patch) for rebooting to FEL,
  eMMC bootloader, various p-boot boot configs on either eMMC or SD card's bootfs filesystems,
  boot menu, etc. via reboot() syscall with extra arg (see LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2)
  (p-boot is also updated to support this mechanism, as of 2021-02-15)

- modem power driver: add more powerup modes and change interface for dumb and fastboot powerup
  - you can now write 2, 3 or 4 to .../powered sysfs file to select differnt powerup mode from
    the normal one (1)
  - this is useful for selecting alternate userspace configurations early in boot to allow
    tracing the userspace processes from early on for reverse engineering, and in the near
    future, it will be used to switch between original and fully-FOSS userspace code
    running on the modem's APPS CPU on powerup
    - see https://xnux.eu/log/#028

- I improved the anx7688 driver to actually respect PD capabilities of the source,
  and don't overload it. This should make it more likely to work with the USB-C
  docks when docks are powered.
- Pine64 dock can provide either 500mA when powered from regular USB-A charger
  (regardless of what kind of charger it is, it can't use more current from it)
- With my 3A PD charger, Pine64 dock will advertise 2600mA and Pinephone will
  now respect this limit.
- rebase on linus/master (5.10-rc6 atm)
- increase I2C clock for sensors and touchscreen/anx7688 from 100kHz to 400kHz

My kernel's main integration branch is 'orange-pi-$VER' (this one).
No other branch is supposed to work alone. My defconfigs are tested
and work on the boards I support. Read the README.md for more info.

Only my branches based on the current mainline kernel branch are
maintained (those are usually the -rc# kernels!). You can find the
current mainline version here https://www.kernel.org/ (mainline: ...)

My prebuilt kernels can be found at https://xff.cz/kernels/ You can
use them to test that your board works, or just run them without
bothering with building everything yourself. I run them on all my
boards.

My website is https://xnux.eu and may contain useful advice.

Good luck!

perf-core-2021-02-17

8bcfdd7c · Merge branch 'perf/kprobes' into perf/core, to pick up finished branch · Feb 17, 2021

The performance event updates for v5.12 are:

 - Add CPU-PMU support for Intel Sapphire Rapids CPUs

 - Extend the perf ABI with PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, to offer two-parameter
   sampling event feedback. Not used yet, but is intended for Golden Cove
   CPU-PMU, which can provide both the instruction latency and the cache
   latency information for memory profiling events.

 - Remove experimental, default-disabled perfmon-v4 counter_freezing support
   that could only be enabled via a boot option. The hardware is hopelessly
   broken, we'd like to make sure nobody starts relying on this, as it would
   only end in tears.

 - Fix energy/power events on Intel SPR platforms

 - Simplify the uprobes resume_execution() logic

 - Misc smaller fixes.

sched-core-2021-02-17

c5e6fc08 · sched,x86: Allow !PREEMPT_DYNAMIC · Feb 17, 2021

Scheduler updates for v5.12:

[ NOTE: unfortunately this tree had to be freshly rebased today,
        it's a same-content tree of 82891be90f3c (-next published)
        merged with v5.11.

        The main reason for the rebase was an authorship misattribution
        problem with a new commit, which we noticed in the last minute,
        and which we didn't want to be merged upstream. The offending
        commit was deep in the tree, and dependent commits had to be
        rebased as well. ]

- Core scheduler updates:

  - Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the
    preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full),
    to allow distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to
    close to PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling
    behavior via a boot time selection.

    There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime.

    This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of static calls).

    The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking
    at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c.

    ( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical,
      for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the
      preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime
      overhead even with the code patching. )

    The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast majority
    of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected.

  - Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that
    was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that
    rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after
    the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it
    by chance but many others don't.

    In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch
    scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address
    the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the
    initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug.

  - Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the following
    consistent set of rbtree APIs:

     partial-order; less() based:
       - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree
       - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached

     total-order; cmp() based:
       - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree
       - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found

       - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry
       - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first()
       - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two

  - Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a single pass.
    This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves one aspect of the idle
    sibling scan logic.

  - Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU utilization
    metrics from the scheduler

  - Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by reducing the number
    of active LB attempts & lengthen the load-balancing interval. This improves
    stress-ng mmapfork performance.

  - Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can result in
    too high utilization values

- Misc updates & fixes:

   - Fix the HRTICK reprogramming & optimization feature
   - Fix SCHED_SOFTIRQ raising race & warning in the CPU offlining code
   - Reduce dl_add_task_root_domain() overhead
   - Fix uprobes refcount bug
   - Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle()
   - Clean up task priority related defines, remove *USER_*PRIO and
     USER_PRIO()
   - Simplify the sched_init_numa() deduplication sort
   - Documentation updates
   - Fix EAS bug in update_misfit_status(), which degraded the quality
     of energy-balancing
   - Smaller cleanups

These are the latest RCU updates for v5.12:

 - Documentation updates.

 - Miscellaneous fixes.

 - kfree_rcu() updates: Addition of mem_dump_obj() to provide allocator return
   addresses to more easily locate bugs.  This has a couple of RCU-related commits,

 - Per-callback-batch tracking of numbers of callbacks,
   which enables better debugging information and smarter
   reactions to large numbers of callbacks.
