scripts/get_maintainer.pl should be used on patches, not on the

MAINTAINERS: Add entry for DOCUMENTATION/JAPANESE

Due to the lack of an entry for the Japanese translation of
documentation, Kosuke Fujimoto needed to ask the status of
its maintenance [1].

Add an entry for DOCUMENTATION/JAPANESE as a sub-subsystem
under the DOCUMENTATION subsystem to make it easier for
another prospective contributor to know there is someone
who takes care of Japanese translation.

As a first step, install myself as a designated reviewer.
Hopefully, other interested members get accustomed to the
kernel-dev workflow and would get ready to be
(co-)maintainers/reviewers shortly.

     takes the feature set of the fpstate buffer into account. The
     feature sets can differ between host and guest buffers. Guest
     buffers do not contain supervisor states. So far this was not an

2 years agotracing: mark user_events as BROKEN

tracing: mark user_events as BROKEN

After being merged, user_events become more visible to a wider audience
that have concerns with the current API.

It is too late to fix this for this release, but instead of a full
revert, just mark it as BROKEN (which prevents it from being selected in
make config).  Then we can work finding a better API.  If that fails,
then it will need to be completely reverted.

To not have the code silently bitrot, still allow building it with
COMPILE_TEST.

And to prevent the uapi header from being installed, then later changed,
and then have an old distro user space see the old version, move the
header file out of the uapi directory.

Surround the include with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST to the current location,
but when the BROKEN tag is taken off, it will use the uapi directory,
and fail to compile.  This is a good way to remind us to move the header
back.

tracing: Move user_events.h temporarily out of include/uapi

While user_events API is under development and has been marked for broken
to not let the API become fixed, move the header file out of the uapi
directory. This is to prevent it from being installed, then later changed,
and then have an old distro user space update with a new kernel, where
applications see the user_events being available, but the old header is in
place, and then they get compiled incorrectly.

Also, surround the include with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST to the current
location, but when the BROKEN tag is taken off, it will use the uapi
directory, and fail to compile. This is a good way to remind us to move
the header back.

ftrace: Make ftrace_graph_is_dead() a static branch

ftrace_graph_is_dead() is used on hot paths, it just reads a variable
in memory and is not worth suffering function call constraints.

For instance, at entry of prepare_ftrace_return(), inlining it avoids
saving prepare_ftrace_return() parameters to stack and restoring them
after calling ftrace_graph_is_dead().

While at it using a static branch is even more performant and is
rather well adapted considering that the returned value will almost
never change.

Inline ftrace_graph_is_dead() and replace 'kill_ftrace_graph' bool
by a static branch.

The performance improvement is noticeable.

KVM: x86/mmu: do compare-and-exchange of gPTE via the user address

FNAME(cmpxchg_gpte) is an inefficient mess.  It is at least decent if it
can go through get_user_pages_fast(), but if it cannot then it tries to
use memremap(); that is not just terribly slow, it is also wrong because
it assumes that the VM_PFNMAP VMA is contiguous.

The right way to do it would be to do the same thing as
hva_to_pfn_remapped() does since commit add6a0cd1c5b ("KVM: MMU: try to
fix up page faults before giving up", 2016-07-05), using follow_pte()
and fixup_user_fault() to determine the correct address to use for
memremap().  To do this, one could for example extract hva_to_pfn()
for use outside virt/kvm/kvm_main.c.  But really there is no reason to
do that either, because there is already a perfectly valid address to
do the cmpxchg() on, only it is a userspace address.  That means doing
user_access_begin()/user_access_end() and writing the code in assembly
to handle exceptions correctly.  Worse, the guest PTE can be 8-byte
even on i686 so there is the extra complication of using cmpxchg8b to
account for.  But at least it is an efficient mess.

(Thanks to Linus for suggesting improvement on the inline assembly).
