This is due to the use of the construct:
*((long*)dst)++ = lc;
Which is no longer legal since casts don't return an lvalue.
The solution is to import the implementation from newlib,
which is continually autotested together with GCC mainline,
and uses the construct:
*(long *) dst = lc; dst += 4;
With this change, the generated code actually shrinks 76 bytes
since gcc notices that it can use autoincrement for the move
instruction in CRIS.
text data bss dec hex filename
304 0 0 304 130 memset.old.o
text data bss dec hex filename
228 0 0 228 e4 memset.o
Since this is an import of a file from newlib, I'm not touching
the formatting or correcting any checkpatch errors.
Note also that even if the two files for the CRIS v10 and CRIS v32
are identical at the moment, it might be possible to tweak the
CRIS v32 version. Thus, I'm not yet folding them into the same file,
at least not until we've done some research on it.

RDMA/cma: Do not issue MRA if user rejects connection request
There's an undesirable interaction with issuing MRA requests to
increase connection timeouts and the listen backlog.
When the rdma_cm receives a connection request, it queues an MRA with
the ib_cm. (The ib_cm will send an MRA if it receives a duplicate
REQ.) The rdma_cm will then create a new rdma_cm_id and give that to
the user, which in this case is the rdma_user_cm.
If the listen backlog maintained in the rdma_user_cm is full, it
destroys the rdma_cm_id, which in turns destroys the ib_cm_id. The
ib_cm_id generates a REJ because the state of the ib_cm_id has changed
to MRA sent, versus REQ received. When the backlog is full, we just
want to drop the REQ so that it is retried later.
Fix this by deferring queuing the MRA until after the user of the
rdma_cm has examined the connection request.

slub: Support 4k kmallocs again to compensate for page allocator slowness
Currently we hand off PAGE_SIZEd kmallocs to the page allocator in the
mistaken belief that the page allocator can handle these allocations
effectively. However, measurements indicate a minimum slowdown by the
factor of 8 (and that is only SMP, NUMA is much worse) vs the slub fastpath
which causes regressions in tbench.
Increase the number of kmalloc caches by one so that we again handle 4k
kmallocs directly from slub. 4k page buffering for the page allocator
will be performed by slub like done by slab.
At some point the page allocator fastpath should be fixed. A lot of the kernel
would benefit from a faster ability to allocate a single page. If that is
done then the 4k allocs may again be forwarded to the page allocator and this
patch could be reverted.

slub: Fallback to kmalloc_large for failing higher order allocs
Slub already has two ways of allocating an object. One is via its own
logic and the other is via the call to kmalloc_large to hand off object
allocation to the page allocator. kmalloc_large is typically used
for objects >= PAGE_SIZE.
We can use that handoff to avoid failing if a higher order kmalloc slab
allocation cannot be satisfied by the page allocator. If we reach the
out of memory path then simply try a kmalloc_large(). kfree() can
already handle the case of an object that was allocated via the page
allocator and so this will work just fine (apart from object
accounting...).
For any kmalloc slab that already requires higher order allocs (which
makes it impossible to use the page allocator fastpath!)
we just use PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER to get the largest number of
objects in one go from the page allocator slowpath.
On a 4k platform this patch will lead to the following use of higher
order pages for the following kmalloc slabs:
8 ... 1024 order 0
2048 .. 4096 order 3 (4k slab only after the next patch)
We may waste some space if fallback occurs on a 2k slab but we
are always able to fallback to an order 0 alloc.

mlx4_core: Move table_find from fmr_alloc to fmr_enable
mlx4_table_find (for FMR MPTs) requires that ICM memory already be
mapped. Before this fix, FMR allocation depended on ICM memory
already being mapped for the MPT entry. If all currently mapped
entries are taken, the find operation fails (even if the MPT ICM table
still had more entries, which were just not mapped yet).
This fix moves the mpt find operation to fmr_enable, to guarantee that
any required ICM memory mapping has already occurred.

This adds some new magic in the MODPOST phase for CONFIG_MARKERS. Analogous
to the Module.symvers file, the build will now write a Module.markers file
when CONFIG_MARKERS=y is set. This file lists the name, defining module, and
format string of each marker, separated by \t characters. This simple text
file can be used by offline build procedures for instrumentation code,
analogous to how System.map and Module.symvers can be useful to have for
kernels other than the one you are running right now.
The strings are made easy to extract by having the __trace_mark macro define
the name and format together in a single array called __mstrtab_* in the
__markers_strings section. This is straightforward and reliable as long as
the marker structs are always defined by this macro. It is an unreasonable
amount of hairy work to extract the string pointers from the __markers section
structs, which entails handling a relocation type for every machine under the
sun.

RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers. Common case
(one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a
supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path.
- Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback.
Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the
callback instead of the marker site.
Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that
supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no
arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the
preempt disable section.
- Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically
armed.
Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused.
This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe
"arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a
va_list * instead of a "...".
If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given
time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it,
connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail.
It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations :
Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics
with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call
a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.

IRQ handle

-> hrtimer_run_queues()
-> hrtimer_get_softirq_time() - tries to get a read lock
