The ``flat-table`` is a double-stage list similar to the ``list-table`` with
some additional features:
* column-span: with the role ``cspan`` a cell can be extended through
additional columns
* row-span: with the role ``rspan`` a cell can be extended through
additional rows
* auto span rightmost cell of a table row over the missing cells on the right
side of that table-row. With Option ``:fill-cells:`` this behavior can
changed from *auto span* to *auto fill*, which automaticly inserts (empty)
list tables
The *list tables* formats are double stage lists. Compared to the
ASCII-art they migth be less comfortable for readers of the
text-files. Their advantage is, that they are easy to create/modify
and that the diff of a modification is much more meaningfull, because
it is limited to the modified content.

Documentation/sphinx: add support for specifying extra export files
Let the user specify file patterns where to look for the EXPORT_SYMBOLs
in addition to the file with kernel-doc comments. This is directly based
on the -export-file FILE option added to kernel-doc in "kernel-doc: add
support for specifying extra files for EXPORT_SYMBOLs", but we extend
that with globbing patterns in the Sphinx extension.
The file patterns are added as options to the :export: and :internal:
arguments of the kernel-doc directive. For example, to extract the
documentation of exported functions from include/net/mac80211.h:
Without the file pattern, no exported functions would be found, as the
EXPORT_SYMBOLs are placed in the various source files under
net/mac80211.
The matched files are also added as dependencies on the document in
Sphinx, as they may affect the output. This is one of the reasons to do
the globbing in the Sphinx extension instead of in scripts/kernel-doc.
The file pattern remains optional, and is not needed if the kernel-doc
comments and EXPORT_SYMBOLs are placed in the source file passed in as
the main argument to the kernel-doc directive. This is the most common
case across the kernel source tree.

doc/sphinx: Track line-number of starting blocks
Design is pretty simple: kernel-doc inserts breadcrumbs with line
numbers, and sphinx picks them up. At first I went with a sphinx
comment, but inserting those at random places seriously upsets the
parser, and must be filtered. Hence why this version now uses "#define
LINEO " since one of these ever escape into output it's pretty clear
there is a bug.
It seems to work well, and at least the 2-3 errors where sphinx
complained about something that was not correct in kernel-doc text the
line numbers matched up perfectly.
v2: Instead of noodling around in the parser state machine, create
a ViewList and parse it ourselves. This seems to be the recommended
way, per Jani's suggestion.
v3:
- Split out ViewList pach. Splitting the kernel-doc changes from the
sphinx ones isn't possible, since emitting the LINENO lines wreaks
havoc with the rst formatting. We must filter them.
- Improve the regex per Jani's suggestions, and compile it just once
for speed.
- Now that LINENO lines are eaten, also add them to function parameter
descriptions. Much less content and offset than for in-line struct
member descriptions, but still nice to know which exact continuation
line upsets sphinx.
- Simplify/clarify the line +/-1 business a bit.
v4: Split out the scripts/kernel-doc changes and make line-numbers
opt-in, as suggested by Jani.

rst-ness of the kernel-doc comments.
Especially when transitioning a new docbook .tmpl to .rst this
is extremely useful, since you can just use your editors compilation

v2:
- Also make sure that we filter the LINENO for purpose/at declaration

While at it make it a notch more accurate.
- Avoid undefined $lineno issues. I tried filtering these out at the
callsite, but Jani spotted more when linting the entire kernel.
Unamed unions and similar things aren't stored consistently and end
up with an undefined line number (but also no kernel-doc text, just
the parameter type). Simplify things and filter undefined line
numbers in print_lineno() to catch them all.

kernel-doc: limit the "section header:" detection to a select few
kernel-doc currently identifies anything matching "section header:"
(specifically a string of word characters and spaces followed by a
colon) as a new section in the documentation comment, and renders the
section header accordingly.
Unfortunately, this turns all uses of colon into sections, mostly
unintentionally. Considering the output, erroneously creating sections
when not intended is always worse than erroneously not creating sections
when intended. For example, a line with "http://example.com" turns into
a "http" heading followed by "//example.com" in normal text style, which
is quite ugly. OTOH, "WARNING: Beware of the Leopard" is just fine even
if "WARNING" does not turn into a heading.
It is virtually impossible to change all the kernel-doc comments, either
way. The compromise is to pick the most commonly used and depended on
section headers (with variants) and accept them as section headers.
The accepted section headers are, case insensitive:
* description:
* context:
* return:
* returns:
Additionally, case sensitive:
* @return:
All of the above are commonly used in the kernel-doc comments, and will
result in worse output if not identified as section headers. Also,
kernel-doc already has some special handling for all of them, so there's
nothing particularly controversial in adding more special treatment for
them.

All Sphinx processing is placed into Documentation/Makefile.sphinx. Both
that and the Documentation/DocBook/Makefile are now expected to handle
all the documentation targets, explicitly ignoring them if they're not

DocBook Makefile are kept minimal.
There is graceful handling of missing Sphinx and rst2pdf (which is

respectively, with informative messages to the user.
If the Read the Docs theme (sphinx_rtd_theme) is available, use it, but
otherwise gracefully fall back to the Sphinx default theme, with an
informative message to the user, and slightly less pretty HTML output.
Sphinx can now handle htmldocs, pdfdocs (if rst2pdf is available),
epubdocs and xmldocs targets. The output documents are written into per
output type subdirectories under Documentation/output.
Finally, you can pass options to sphinx-build using the SPHINXBUILD make
variable. For example, 'make SPHINXOPTS=-v htmldocs' for more verbose

kernel-doc: support printing exported and non-exported symbols
Currently we use docproc to figure out which symbols are exported, and
then docproc calls kernel-doc on specific functions, to get
documentation on exported functions. According to git blame and docproc
comments, this is due to historical reasons, as functions and their
corresponding EXPORT_SYMBOL* may have been in different files. However
for more than ten years the recommendation in CodingStyle has been to
place the EXPORT_SYMBOL* immediately after the closing function brace
line.
Additionally, the kernel-doc comments for functions are generally placed
above the function definition in the .c files (i.e. where the
EXPORT_SYMBOL* is) rather than above the declaration in the .h
files. There are some exceptions to this, but AFAICT none of these are
included in DocBook documentation using the "!E" docproc directive.
Therefore, assuming the EXPORT_SYMBOL* and kernel-doc are with the

information by making two passes on the input file. Add support for that

hpfs: implement the show_options method
The HPFS filesystem used generic_show_options to produce string that is
displayed in /proc/mounts. However, there is a problem that the options
may disappear after remount. If we mount the filesystem with option1
and then remount it with option2, /proc/mounts should show both option1
and option2, however it only shows option2 because the whole option
string is replaced with replace_mount_options in hpfs_remount_fs.
To fix this bug, implement the hpfs_show_options function that prints
options that are currently selected.

affs: fix remount failure when there are no options changed

However, if we are remounting a filesystem with no change to

Merge branch 'hash' of git://ftp.sciencehorizons.net/linux
Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
"This series does several related things:
- Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.
(Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)
- Converts the string hashes in <linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h> to use the
above.
- Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms. Two
32-bit multiplies will do well enough.
- Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.
This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6ca95 ("Minimal
fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")
The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
multipliers.
The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added. Those
patches are last in the series.
- Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.
The patch in commit 0fed3ac866ea ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
faster and better. (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
in the literature I could find. Comments welcome!)
- Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX(). This
would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.
- Sort out partial_name_hash().
The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
contributes nothing to the result. And some callers do odd things:
- fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
- fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes
- Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1. This would simplify users other
than full_name_hash"
Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1. (I
learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)
On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a

fs/namei.c: Improve dcache hash function
Patch 0fed3ac866 improved the hash mixing, but the function is slower
than necessary; there's a 7-instruction dependency chain (10 on x86)
each loop iteration.
Word-at-a-time access is a very tight loop (which is good, because
link_path_walk() is one of the hottest code paths in the entire kernel),
and the hash mixing function must not have a longer latency to avoid
slowing it down.
There do not appear to be any published fast hash functions that:
1) Operate on the input a word at a time, and
2) Don't need to know the length of the input beforehand, and
3) Have a single iterated mixing function, not needing conditional
branches or unrolling to distinguish different loop iterations.
One of the algorithms which comes closest is Yann Collet's xxHash, but
that's two dependent multiplies per word, which is too much.
The key insights in this design are:
1) Barring expensive ops like multiplies, to diffuse one input bit
across 64 bits of hash state takes at least log2(64) = 6 sequentially
dependent instructions. That is more cycles than we'd like.
2) An operation like "hash ^= hash << 13" requires a second temporary
register anyway, and on a 2-operand machine like x86, it's three
instructions.
3) A better use of a second register is to hold a two-word hash state.
With careful design, no temporaries are needed at all, so it doesn't
increase register pressure. And this gets rid of register copying
on 2-operand machines, so the code is smaller and faster.
4) Using two words of state weakens the requirement for one-round mixing;
we now have two rounds of mixing before cancellation is possible.
5) A two-word hash state also allows operations on both halves to be
done in parallel, so on a superscalar processor we get more mixing
in fewer cycles.
I ended up using a mixing function inspired by the ChaCha and Speck
round functions. It is 6 simple instructions and 3 cycles per iteration
(assuming multiply by 9 can be done by an "lea" instruction):
x ^= *input++;
y ^= x; x = ROL(x, K1);
x += y; y = ROL(y, K2);
y *= 9;
Not only is this reversible, two consecutive rounds are reversible:
if you are given the initial and final states, but not the intermediate
state, it is possible to compute both input words. This means that at
least 3 words of input are required to create a collision.
(It also has the property, used by hash_name() to avoid a branch, that
it hashes all-zero to all-zero.)
The rotate constants K1 and K2 were found by experiment. The search took
a sample of random initial states (I used 1023) and considered the effect
of flipping each of the 64 input bits on each of the 128 output bits two
rounds later. Each of the 8192 pairs can be considered a biased coin, and
adding up the Shannon entropy of all of them produces a score.
The best-scoring shifts also did well in other tests (flipping bits in y,
trying 3 or 4 rounds of mixing, flipping all 64*63/2 pairs of input bits),
so the choice was made with the additional constraint that the sum of the
shifts is odd and not too close to the word size.
The final state is then folded into a 32-bit hash value by a less carefully
optimized multiply-based scheme. This also has to be fast, as pathname
components tend to be short (the most common case is one iteration!), but
there's some room for latency, as there is a fair bit of intervening logic
before the hash value is used for anything.
(Performance verified with "bonnie++ -s 0 -n 1536:-2" on tmpfs. I need
a better benchmark; the numbers seem to show a slight dip in performance
between 4.6.0 and this patch, but they're too noisy to quote.)

nasty fencepost error in an earlier version of this patch.

The "simplified" prime multipliers made very bad hash functions, so get rid

To avoid the inefficiency which was the motivation for the "simplified"

is why the previous patch needed to handle that in full_name_hash().

It's actually useful in the dcache itself, specifically d_alloc_name().

full_name_hash() is also tweaked to make it more generally useful:
1) Take a "char *" rather than "unsigned char *" argument, to

- SendOnlyFullMember multicast support
- IB router support
- A couple misc fixes
- The big item on the list: hfi1 driver updates, plus moving the hfi1
driver out of staging
There was a group of 15 patches in the hfi1 list that I thought I had
in the first pull request but they weren't. So that added to the
length of the hfi1 section here.
As far as these go, everything but the hfi1 is pretty straight
forward.
The hfi1 is, if you recall, the driver that Al had complaints about
how it used the write/writev interfaces in an overloaded fashion. The
write portion of their interface behaved like the write handler in the
IB stack proper and did bi-directional communications. The writev
interface, on the other hand, only accepts SDMA request structures.
The completions for those structures are sent back via an entirely
different event mechanism.
With the security patch, we put security checks on the write
interface, however, we also knew they would be going away soon. Now,
we've converted the write handler in the hfi1 driver to use ioctls
from the IB reserved magic area for its bidirectional communications.
With that change, Intel has addressed all of the items originally on
their TODO when they went into staging (as well as many items added to
the list later).
As such, I moved them out, and since they were the last item in the
staging/rdma directory, and I don't have immediate plans to use the
staging area again, I removed the staging/rdma area.
Because of the move out of staging, as well as a series of 5 patches
in the hfi1 driver that removed code people thought should be done in
a different way and was optional to begin with (a snoop debug
interface, an eeprom driver for an eeprom connected directory to their

MIPS: Build microMIPS VDSO for microMIPS kernels
MicroMIPS kernels may be expected to run on microMIPS only cores which
don't support the normal MIPS instruction set, so be sure to pass the
-mmicromips flag through to the VDSO cflags.

MIPS: Fix sigreturn via VDSO on microMIPS kernel
In microMIPS kernels, handle_signal() sets the isa16 mode bit in the
vdso address so that the sigreturn trampolines (which are offset from
the VDSO) get executed as microMIPS.
However commit ebb5e78cc634 ("MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO")
changed the offsets to come from the VDSO image, which already have the
isa16 mode bit set correctly since they're extracted from the VDSO
shared library symbol table.
Drop the isa16 mode bit handling from handle_signal() to fix sigreturn
for cores which support both microMIPS and normal MIPS. This doesn't fix
microMIPS only cores, since the VDSO is still built for normal MIPS, but
thats a separate problem.

MIPS: lib: Mark intrinsics notrace
On certain MIPS32 devices, the ftrace tracer "function_graph" uses
__lshrdi3() during the capturing of trace data. ftrace then attempts to
trace __lshrdi3() which leads to infinite recursion and a stack overflow.
Fix this by marking __lshrdi3() as notrace. Mark the other compiler
intrinsics as notrace in case the compiler decides to use them in the
ftrace path.

MIPS: Fix 64-bit HTW configuration
The Hardware page Table Walker (HTW) is being misconfigured on 64-bit
kernels. The PWSize.PS (pointer size) bit determines whether pointers
within directories are loaded as 32-bit or 64-bit addresses, but was
never being set to 1 for 64-bit kernels where the unsigned long in pgd_t
is 64-bits wide.
This actually reduces rather than improves performance when the HTW is
enabled on P6600 since the HTW is initiated lots, but walks are all
aborted due I think to bad intermediate pointers.
Since we were already taking the width of the PTEs into account by
setting PWSize.PTEW, which is the left shift applied to the page table
index *in addition to* the native pointer size, we also need to reduce
PTEW by 1 when PS=1. This is done by calculating PTEW based on the
relative size of pte_t compared to pgd_t.
Finally in order for the HTW to be used when PS=1, the appropriate
XK/XS/XU bits corresponding to the different 64-bit segments need to be
set in PWCtl. We enable only XU for now to enable walking for XUSeg.
Supporting walking for XKSeg would be a bit more involved so is left for
a future patch. It would either require the use of a per-CPU top level
base directory if supported by the HTW (a bit like pgd_current but with
a second entry pointing at swapper_pg_dir), or the HTW would prepend bit
63 of the address to the global directory index which doesn't really
match how we split user and kernel page directories.
