scripts/sphinx-pre-install: add '-p python3' to virtualenv
With Ubuntu 16.04 (and presumably Debian distros of the same age),
the instructions for setting up a python virtual environment should
do so with the python 3 interpreter. On these older distros, the
default python (and virtualenv command) might be python2 based.
Some of the packages that sphinx relies on are now only available
for python3. If you don't specify the python3 interpreter for
the virtualenv, you get errors when doing the pip installs for
various packages
Fix this by adding '-p python3' to the virtualenv recommendation
line.

Pull new zonefs file system from Damien Le Moal:
"Zonefs is a very simple file system exposing each zone of a zoned
block device as a file.
Unlike a regular file system with native zoned block device support
(e.g. f2fs or the on-going btrfs effort), zonefs does not hide the
sequential write constraint of zoned block devices to the user. As a
result, zonefs is not a POSIX compliant file system. Its goal is to
simplify the implementation of zoned block devices support in
applications by replacing raw block device file accesses with a richer
file based API, avoiding relying on direct block device file ioctls
which may be more obscure to developers.
One example of this approach is the implementation of LSM
(log-structured merge) tree structures (such as used in RocksDB and
LevelDB) on zoned block devices by allowing SSTables to be stored in a
zone file similarly to a regular file system rather than as a range of
sectors of a zoned device. The introduction of the higher level
construct "one file is one zone" can help reducing the amount of
changes needed in the application while at the same time allowing the
use of zoned block devices with various programming languages other
than C.
Zonefs IO management implementation uses the new iomap generic code.
Zonefs has been successfully tested using a functional test suite
(available with zonefs userland format tool on github) and a prototype
implementation of LevelDB on top of zonefs"

"A set of fixes for X86:
- Ensure that the PIT is set up when the local APIC is disable or
configured in legacy mode. This is caused by an ordering issue
introduced in the recent changes which skip PIT initialization when
the TSC and APIC frequencies are already known.
- Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing which caused
an infinite loop anda boot hang.
- Fix a long standing race in the affinity setting code which affects
PCI devices with non-maskable MSI interrupts. The problem is caused
by the non-atomic writes of the MSI address (destination APIC id)
and data (vector) fields which the device uses to construct the MSI
message. The non-atomic writes are mandated by PCI.
If both fields change and the device raises an interrupt after
writing address and before writing data, then the MSI block
constructs a inconsistent message which causes interrupts to be
lost and subsequent malfunction of the device.
The fix is to redirect the interrupt to the new vector on the
current CPU first and then switch it over to the new target CPU.
This allows to observe an eventually raised interrupt in the
transitional stage (old CPU, new vector) to be observed in the APIC
IRR and retriggered on the new target CPU and the new vector.
The potential spurious interrupts caused by this are harmless and
can in the worst case expose a buggy driver (all handlers have to
be able to deal with spurious interrupts as they can and do happen
for various reasons).
- Add the missing suspend/resume mechanism for the HYPERV hypercall
page which prevents resume hibernation on HYPERV guests. This
change got lost before the merge window.
- Mask the IOAPIC before disabling the local APIC to prevent
potentially stale IOAPIC remote IRR bits which cause stale
interrupt lines after resume"

Apparently this didn't get any build testing anywhere. Not perhaps all
that surprising: it's restricted to 64-bit MIPS only, and only with the

I only noticed because the ioremap conflicts in the ARM SoC driver

one.

Merge branch 'pipe-exclusive-wakeup'
Merge thundering herd avoidance on pipe IO.
This would have been applied for 5.5 already, but got delayed because of
a user-space race condition in the GNU make jobserver code. Now that
there's a new GNU make 4.3 release, and most distributions seem to have
at least applied the (almost three year old) fix for the problem, let's
see if people notice.
And it might have been just bad random timing luck on my machine.
If you do hit the race condition, things will still work, but the
symptom is that you don't get nearly the expected parallelism when using
"make -j<N>".
The jobserver bug can definitely happen without this patch too, but
seems to be easier to trigger when we no longer wake up pipe waiters
unnecessarily.
* pipe-exclusive-wakeup:
pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing
Linus Torvalds [Mon, 9 Dec 2019 17:48:27 +0000 (09:48 -0800)]
pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing
This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting
for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when
there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly,
lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space).
While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a
data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and
a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe
as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication.
In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way
to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte
from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back
to the pipe.
This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but
will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single
reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token.
A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64
processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this
test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to
test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it):
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd[2], counters[2];
do {
int i;
read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i));
if (i < 0)
continue;
counters[0] = i+1;
write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int));
} while (counters[0] < 1000000);
return 0;
}
and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one
context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a
directed wakeup of just a single reader.
But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on
my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more
scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat"
shows
[ Note! This kernel improvement seems to be very good at triggering a
race condition in the make jobserver (in GNU make 4.2.1) for me. It's
a long known bug that was fixed back in June 2017 by GNU make commit b552b0525198 ("[SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to
avoid hangs.").
But there wasn't a new release of GNU make until 4.3 on Jan 19 2020,
so a number of distributions may still have the buggy version. Some
have backported the fix to their 4.2.1 release, though, and even
without the fix it's quite timing-dependent whether the bug actually
is hit. ]
Josh Triplett says:
"I've been hammering on your pipe fix patch (switching to exclusive
wait queues) for a month or so, on several different systems, and I've
run into no issues with it. The patch *substantially* improves
parallel build times on large (~100 CPU) systems, both with parallel
make and with other things that use make's pipe-based jobserver.
All current distributions (including stable and long-term stable
distributions) have versions of GNU make that no longer have the
jobserver bug"

Change it back so it can work on any file again by moving the implementation
