6c37e5de45 TCP: avoid to send keepalive probes if receiving data
RFC 1122 says the following:
...
  Keep-alive packets MUST only be sent when no data or
  acknowledgement packets have been received for the
  connection within an interval.
...

The acknowledgement packet is reseting the keepalive
timer but the data packet isn't. This patch fixes it by
checking the timestamp of the last received data packet
too when the keepalive timer expires.

7ec75c582e net: suppress RCU lockdep false positive in twsk_net()
Calls to twsk_net() are in some cases protected by reference counting
as an alternative to RCU protection.  Cases covered by reference counts
include __inet_twsk_kill(), inet_twsk_free(), inet_twdr_do_twkill_work(),
inet_twdr_twcal_tick(), and tcp_timewait_state_process().  RCU is used
by inet_twsk_purge().  Locking is used by established_get_first()
and established_get_next().  Finally, __inet_twsk_hashdance() is an
initialization case.

It appears to be non-trivial to locate the appropriate locks and
reference counts from within twsk_net(), so used rcu_dereference_raw().

ea2db495f9 ssb: Look for SPROM at different offset on higher rev CC
Our offset handling becomes even a little more hackish now. For some reason I
do not understand all offsets as inrelative. It assumes base offset is 0x1000
but it will work for now as we make offsets relative anyway by removing base
0x1000. Should be cleaner however.

d53cdbb94a ssb: do not read SPROM if it does not exist
Attempting to read registers that don't exist on the SSB bus can cause
hangs on some boxes.  At least some b43 devices are 'in the wild' that
don't have SPROMs at all.  When the SSB bus support loads, it attempts
to read these (non-existant) SPROMs and causes hard hangs on the box --
no console output, etc.

This patch adds some intelligence to determine whether or not the SPROM
is present before attempting to read it.  This avoids those hard hangs
on those devices with no SPROM attached to their SSB bus.  The
SSB-attached devices (e.g. b43, et al.) won't work, but at least the box
will survive to test further patches. :-)

25239cee7e net: rtnetlink: decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families
Decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families in socket.h to
be able to add rtnetlink interfaces to code that is not a real address family
without increasing AF_MAX/NPROTO.

This will be used to add support for multicast route dumping from all tables
as the proc interface can't be extended to support anything but the main table
without breaking compatibility.

This partialy undoes the patch to introduce independant families for routing
rules and converts ipmr routing rules to a new rtnetlink family. Similar to
that patch, values up to 127 are reserved for real address families, values
above that may be used arbitrarily.

40eaf96271 net: Socket filter ancilliary data access for skb->dev->type
Add an SKF_AD_HATYPE field to the packet ancilliary data area, giving
access to skb->dev->type, as reported in the sll_hatype field.

When capturing packets on a PF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW socket bound to all
interfaces, there doesn't appear to be a way for the filter program to
actually find out the underlying hardware type the packet was captured
on. This patch adds such ability.

This patch also handles the case where skb->dev can be NULL, such as on
netlink sockets.

e802af9cab IPv6: Generic TTL Security Mechanism (final version)
This patch adds IPv6 support for RFC5082 Generalized TTL Security Mechanism.  

Not to users of mapped address; the IPV6 and IPV4 socket options are seperate.
The server does have to deal with both IPv4 and IPv6 socket options
and the client has to handle the different for each family.

On client:
	int ttl = 255;
	getaddrinfo(argv[1], argv[2], &hint, &result);

	for (rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next) {
		s = socket(rp->ai_family, rp->ai_socktype, rp->ai_protocol);
		if (s < 0) continue;

		if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET) {
			setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TTL, &ttl, sizeof(ttl));
		} else if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET6) {
			setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IPV6,  IPV6_UNICAST_HOPS, 
					&ttl, sizeof(ttl)))
		}
			
		if (connect(s, rp->ai_addr, rp->ai_addrlen) == 0) {
		   ...

On server:
	int minttl = 255 - maxhops;
   
	getaddrinfo(NULL, port, &hints, &result);
	for (rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next) {
		s = socket(rp->ai_family, rp->ai_socktype, rp->ai_protocol);
		if (s < 0) continue;

		if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET6)
			setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IPV6,  IPV6_MINHOPCOUNT,
					&minttl, sizeof(minttl));
		setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MINTTL, &minttl, sizeof(minttl));
			
		if (bind(s, rp->ai_addr, rp->ai_addrlen) == 0)

989a297920 fasync: RCU and fine grained locking
kill_fasync() uses a central rwlock, candidate for RCU conversion, to
avoid cache line ping pongs on SMP.

fasync_remove_entry() and fasync_add_entry() can disable IRQS on a short
section instead during whole list scan.

Use a spinlock per fasync_struct to synchronize kill_fasync_rcu() and
fasync_{remove|add}_entry(). This spinlock is IRQ safe, so sock_fasync()
doesnt need its own implementation and can use fasync_helper(), to
reduce code size and complexity.

We can remove __kill_fasync() direct use in net/socket.c, and rename it
to kill_fasync_rcu().

03ceedea97 ath9k: Group Key fix for VAPs
When I set up multiple VAPs with ath9k, I encountered an issue that
the traffic may be lost after a while.

The detailed phenomenon is
1. After a while the clients connected to one of these VAPs will get
into a state that no broadcast/multicast packets can be transfered
successfully while the unicast packets can be transfered normally.
2. Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well,
because the ARP entry is expired and it can't be freshed due to the
broadcast trouble.

It's caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this
issue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven't work out a fix yet.

I referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k.
The method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)'s address, and
associated that mac and the group key. It requires the hardware
supports multicast frame key search. It seems true for AR9160.

Not sure whether it's the correct way to fix this issue. But it seems
to work in my test. The patch is attached, feel free to revise it.

net_rps_action() is a bit expensive on NR_CPUS=64..4096 kernels, even if

Tom Herbert used two bitmasks to hold information needed to send IPI,

Move all RPS logic into net_rps_action() to cleanup net_rx_action() code
(remove two ifdefs)

Move rps_remote_softirq_cpus into softnet_data to share its first cache
line, filling an existing hole.

to make sure we send IPI before handling this cpu backlog.

bc293d62b2 rcu: Make RCU lockdep check the lockdep_recursion variable
The lockdep facility temporarily disables lockdep checking by
incrementing the current->lockdep_recursion variable.  Such
disabling happens in NMIs and in other situations where lockdep
might expect to recurse on itself.

This patch therefore checks current->lockdep_recursion, disabling RCU
lockdep splats when this variable is non-zero.  In addition, this patch
removes the "likely()", as suggested by Lai Jiangshan.

fec5e652e5 rfs: Receive Flow Steering
This patch implements receive flow steering (RFS).  RFS steers
received packets for layer 3 and 4 processing to the CPU where
the application for the corresponding flow is running.  RFS is an
extension of Receive Packet Steering (RPS).

The basic idea of RFS is that when an application calls recvmsg
(or sendmsg) the application's running CPU is stored in a hash
table that is indexed by the connection's rxhash which is stored in
the socket structure.  The rxhash is passed in skb's received on
the connection from netif_receive_skb.  For each received packet,
the associated rxhash is used to look up the CPU in the hash table,
if a valid CPU is set then the packet is steered to that CPU using
the RPS mechanisms.

The convolution of the simple approach is that it would potentially
allow OOO packets.  If threads are thrashing around CPUs or multiple
threads are trying to read from the same sockets, a quickly changing
CPU value in the hash table could cause rampant OOO packets--
we consider this a non-starter.

To avoid OOO packets, this solution implements two types of hash
tables: rps_sock_flow_table and rps_dev_flow_table.

rps_sock_table is a global hash table.  Each entry is just a CPU
number and it is populated in recvmsg and sendmsg as described above.
This table contains the "desired" CPUs for flows.

rps_dev_flow_table is specific to each device queue.  Each entry
contains a CPU and a tail queue counter.  The CPU is the "current"
CPU for a matching flow.  The tail queue counter holds the value
of a tail queue counter for the associated CPU's backlog queue at
the time of last enqueue for a flow matching the entry.

Each backlog queue has a queue head counter which is incremented
on dequeue, and so a queue tail counter is computed as queue head
count + queue length.  When a packet is enqueued on a backlog queue,
the current value of the queue tail counter is saved in the hash
entry of the rps_dev_flow_table.

And now the trick: when selecting the CPU for RPS (get_rps_cpu)
the rps_sock_flow table and the rps_dev_flow table for the RX queue
are consulted.  When the desired CPU for the flow (found in the
rps_sock_flow table) does not match the current CPU (found in the
rps_dev_flow table), the current CPU is changed to the desired CPU
if one of the following is true:

- The current CPU is unset (equal to RPS_NO_CPU)
- Current CPU is offline
- The current CPU's queue head counter >= queue tail counter in the
rps_dev_flow table.  This checks if the queue tail has advanced
beyond the last packet that was enqueued using this table entry.
This guarantees that all packets queued using this entry have been
dequeued, thus preserving in order delivery.

Making each queue have its own rps_dev_flow table has two advantages:
1) the tail queue counters will be written on each receive, so
keeping the table local to interrupting CPU s good for locality.  2)
this allows lockless access to the table-- the CPU number and queue
tail counter need to be accessed together under mutual exclusion
from netif_receive_skb, we assume that this is only called from
device napi_poll which is non-reentrant.

This patch implements RFS for TCP and connected UDP sockets.
It should be usable for other flow oriented protocols.

There are two configuration parameters for RFS.  The
"rps_flow_entries" kernel init parameter sets the number of
entries in the rps_sock_flow_table, the per rxqueue sysfs entry
"rps_flow_cnt" contains the number of entries in the rps_dev_flow
table for the rxqueue.  Both are rounded to power of two.

The obvious benefit of RFS (over just RPS) is that it achieves
CPU locality between the receive processing for a flow and the
applications processing; this can result in increased performance
(higher pps, lower latency).

The benefits of RFS are dependent on cache hierarchy, application
load, and other factors.  On simple benchmarks, we don't necessarily
see improvement and sometimes see degradation.  However, for more
complex benchmarks and for applications where cache pressure is
much higher this technique seems to perform very well.

Below are some benchmark results which show the potential benfit of
this patch.  The netperf test has 500 instances of netperf TCP_RR
test with 1 byte req. and resp.  The RPC test is an request/response
test similar in structure to netperf RR test ith 100 threads on
each host, but does more work in userspace that netperf.

or gmac) want to use the enhanced descriptors; others want the normal
ones.
For example, on ST platforms: MAC10/100 uses the normal desc structure
and the GMAC uses the enhanced one.
It can be useful to get this information from the platform.
This could also be decided at run-time looking at the chip's ID number;
but it could happen that chips with the same ID want to use different
descriptor structure.

b62730baea rcu: Add rcu_access_pointer and rcu_dereference_protected
This patch adds variants of rcu_dereference() that handle
situations where the RCU-protected data structure cannot change,
perhaps due to our holding the update-side lock, or where the
RCU-protected pointer is only to be fetched, not dereferenced.
These are needed due to some performance concerns with using
rcu_dereference() where it is not required, aside from the need
for lockdep/sparse checking.

The new rcu_access_pointer() primitive is for the case where the
pointer is be fetch and not dereferenced.  This primitive may be
used without protection, RCU or otherwise, due to the fact that
it uses ACCESS_ONCE().

The new rcu_dereference_protected() primitive is for the case
where updates are prevented, for example, due to holding the
update-side lock.  This primitive does neither ACCESS_ONCE() nor
smp_read_barrier_depends(), so can only be used when updates are
somehow prevented.

f0ad0860d0 ipv4: ipmr: support multiple tables
This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances,
named "tables".

Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by
issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT_TABLE. The table number is
stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ipmr setsockopt(),
getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT_TABLE_DEFAULT)
is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pimreg
devices have the table number appended ("pimregX"), with the exception of
devices created in the default table, which are named just "pimreg" for
compatibility reasons.

Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules,
similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark
are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported
additionally.

Example usage:

- bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table:

uint32_t table = 123;
setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, MRT_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table));

- create routing rules directing packets to the new table:

# ip mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123
# ip mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123

b6c6712a42 net: sk_dst_cache RCUification
With latest CONFIG_PROVE_RCU stuff, I felt more comfortable to make this
work.

sk->sk_dst_cache is currently protected by a rwlock (sk_dst_lock)

This rwlock is readlocked for a very small amount of time, and dst
entries are already freed after RCU grace period. This calls for RCU
again :)

This patch converts sk_dst_lock to a spinlock, and use RCU for readers.

__sk_dst_get() is supposed to be called with rcu_read_lock() or if
socket locked by user, so use appropriate rcu_dereference_check()
condition (rcu_read_lock_held() || sock_owned_by_user(sk))

This patch avoids two atomic ops per tx packet on UDP connected sockets,
for example, and permits sk_dst_lock to be much less dirtied.

0df5dd4aae NFSv4: fix delegated locking
Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a
delegation since commit 8e469ebd6d (NFSv4:
Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it).

According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file
(since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using
delegated opens.

The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is
governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but
gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the
NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

ce82653d6c radix_tree_tag_get() is not as safe as the docs make out [ver #2]
radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set()
or radix_tree_tag_clear().  The problem is that the double tag_get() in
radix_tree_tag_get():

		if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset))
			saw_unset_tag = 1;
		if (height == 1) {
			int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset);

may see the value change due to the action of set/clear.  RCU is no protection
against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced
according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly.

The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that
radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying
the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any
functions reading the tree".

The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the
tag doesn't vary over time:

			BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag);

This has been seen happening in FS-Cache:

	https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html

To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various
comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held,
and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon
unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from
running concurrently with it.

45c4d015a9 libata: Fix accesses at LBA28 boundary (old bug, but nasty) (v2)
Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands,
do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1).
So instead use LBA48 for such accesses.

This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has
taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems,
it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at
0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.

098a607091 mac80211: clean up/fix aggregation code
The aggregation code has a number of quirks, like
inventing an unneeded WLAN_BACK_TIMER value and
leaking memory under certain circumstances during
station destruction. Fix these issues by using
the regular aggregation session teardown code and
blocking new aggregation sessions, all before the
station is really destructed.

As a side effect, this gets rid of the long code
block to destroy aggregation safely.

Additionally, rename tid_state_rx which can only
have the values IDLE and OPERATIONAL to
tid_active_rx to make it easier to understand
that there is no bitwise stuff going on on the
RX side -- the TX side remains because it needs
to keep track of the driver and peer states.

d5cdfacb35 cfg80211: Add local-state-change-only auth/deauth/disassoc
cfg80211 is quite strict on allowing authentication and association
commands only in certain states. In order to meet these requirements,
user space applications may need to clear authentication or
association state in some cases. Currently, this can be done with
deauth/disassoc command, but that ends up sending out Deauthentication
or Disassociation frame unnecessarily. Add a new nl80211 attribute to
allow this sending of the frame be skipped, but with all other
deauth/disassoc operations being completed.

Similar state change is also needed for IEEE 802.11r FT protocol in
the FT-over-DS case which does not use Authentication frame exchange
in a transition to another BSS. For this to work with cfg80211, an
authentication entry needs to be created for the target BSS without
sending out an Authentication frame. The nl80211 authentication
command can be used for this purpose, too, with the new attribute to
indicate that the command is only for changing local state. This
enables wpa_supplicant to complete FT-over-DS transition successfully.

8725d54162 memcg: fix race in file_mapped accounting
Presently, memcg's FILE_MAPPED accounting has following race with
move_account (happens at rmdir()).

    increment page->mapcount (rmap.c)
    mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped()           move_account()
					      lock_page_cgroup()
					      check page_mapped() if
					      page_mapped(page)>1 {
						FILE_MAPPED -1 from old memcg
						FILE_MAPPED +1 to old memcg
					      }
					      .....
					      overwrite pc->mem_cgroup
					      unlock_page_cgroup()
    lock_page_cgroup()
    FILE_MAPPED + 1 to pc->mem_cgroup
    unlock_page_cgroup()

Then,
	old memcg (-1 file mapped)
	new memcg (+2 file mapped)

This happens because move_account see page_mapped() which is not guarded
by lock_page_cgroup().  This patch adds FILE_MAPPED flag to page_cgroup
and move account information based on it.  Now, all checks are synchronous
with lock_page_cgroup().

116354d177 pagemap: fix pfn calculation for hugepage
When we look into pagemap using page-types with option -p, the value of
pfn for hugepages looks wrong (see below.) This is because pte was
evaluated only once for one vma although it should be updated for each
hugepage.  This patch fixes it.

  $ page-types -p 3277 -Nl -b huge
  voffset   offset  len     flags
  7f21e8a00 11e400  1       ___U___________H_G________________
  7f21e8a01 11e401  1ff     ________________TG________________
               ^^^
  7f21e8c00 11e400  1       ___U___________H_G________________
  7f21e8c01 11e401  1ff     ________________TG________________
               ^^^

One hugepage contains 1 head page and 511 tail pages in x86_64 and each
two lines represent each hugepage.  Voffset and offset mean virtual
address and physical address in the page unit, respectively.  The
different hugepages should not have the same offset value.

With this patch applied:

  $ page-types -p 3386 -Nl -b huge
  voffset   offset   len    flags
  7fec7a600 112c00   1      ___UD__________H_G________________
  7fec7a601 112c01   1ff    ________________TG________________
               ^^^
  7fec7a800 113200   1      ___UD__________H_G________________
  7fec7a801 113201   1ff    ________________TG________________
               ^^^
               OK

More info:

- This patch modifies walk_page_range()'s hugepage walker.  But the
  change only affects pagemap_read(), which is the only caller of hugepage
  callback.

- Without this patch, hugetlb_entry() callback is called per vma, that
  doesn't match the natural expectation from its name.

- With this patch, hugetlb_entry() is called per hugepte entry and the
  callback can become much simpler.

55ab3a1ff8 raw: fsync method is now required
Commit 148f948ba8 (vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) broke
the raw driver.

We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync ->
vfs_fsync_range.  vfs_fsync_range has:

        if (!fop || !fop->fsync) {
                ret = -EINVAL;
                goto out;
        }

But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method.

We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely.  I'm
happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it
is rarely used.

The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver.  My knowledge of
the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over.

If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be
useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

80c802f307 xfrm: cache bundles instead of policies for outgoing flows
__xfrm_lookup() is called for each packet transmitted out of
system. The xfrm_find_bundle() does a linear search which can
kill system performance depending on how many bundles are
required per policy.

This modifies __xfrm_lookup() to store bundles directly in
the flow cache. If we did not get a hit, we just create a new
bundle instead of doing slow search. This means that we can now
get multiple xfrm_dst's for same flow (on per-cpu basis).
