xfs-for-linus-4.7-rc1
555b67e4 · ·xfs: update for 4.7-rc1 Changes in this update: o fixes for mount line parsing, sparse warnings, read-only compat feature remount behaviour o allow fast path symlink lookups for inline symlinks. o attribute listing cleanups o writeback goes direct to bios rather than indirecting through bufferheads o transaction allocation cleanup o optimised kmem_realloc o added configurable error handling for metadata write errors, changed default error handling behaviour from "retry forever" to "retry until unmount then fail" o fixed several inode cluster writeback lookup vs reclaim race conditions o fixed inode cluster writeback checking wrong inode after lookup o fixed bugs where struct xfs_inode freeing wasn't actually RCU safe o cleaned up inode reclaim tagging

pm-4.7-rc1-more
4c2628cd · ·More power management updates for v4.7-rc1 - Stable-candidate cpuidle fix to make it check the right variable when deciding whether or not to enable interrupts on the local CPU so as to avoid enabling iterrupts too early in some cases if the system has both coupled and per-core idle states (Daniel Lezcano). - Stable-candidate PM core fix to make it handle failures at the "late suspend" stage of device suspend consistently for all devices regardless of whether or not async suspend/resume is enabled for them (Rafael Wysocki). - Cleanups in the cpufreq core, the schedutil governor and the intel_pstate driver (Rafael Wysocki, Pankaj Gupta, Viresh Kumar).

dax-locking-for-4.7
4d9a2c87 · ·Filesystem DAX locking for 4.7 - We use a bit in an exceptional radix tree entry as a lock bit and use it similarly to how page lock is used for normal faults. This fixes races between hole instantiation and read faults of the same index. - Filesystem DAX PMD faults are disabled, and will be re-enabled when PMD locking is implemented.

dax-misc-for-4.7
40543f62 · ·DAX error handling for 4.7 - Until now, dax has been disabled if media errors were found on any device. This enables the use of DAX in the presence of these errors by making all sector-aligned zeroing go through the driver. - The driver (already) has the ability to clear errors on writes that are sent through the block layer using 'DSMs' defined in ACPI 6.1. Other misc changes: - When mounting DAX filesystems, check to make sure the partition is page aligned. This is a requirement for DAX, and previously, we allowed such unaligned mounts to succeed, but subsequent reads/writes would fail. - Misc/cleanup fixes from Jan that remove unused code from DAX related to zeroing, writeback, and some size checks.

libnvdimm-for-4.7
36092ee8 · ·libnvdimm for 4.7 1/ Device DAX for persistent memory: Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable. Specifically this interface: a) Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time. b) Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault scenarios are supported. Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also targeted for exclusive allocations of performance/feature differentiated memory ranges. 2/ Support for the HPE DSM (device specific method) command formats. This enables management of these first generation devices until a unified DSM specification materializes. 3/ Further ACPI 6.1 compliance with support for the common dimm identifier format. 4/ Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem. -
