908a7a16b8 net: Remove unused netdev arg from some NAPI interfaces.
When the napi api was changed to separate its 1:1 binding to the net_device
struct, the netif_rx_[prep|schedule|complete] api failed to remove the now
vestigual net_device structure parameter.  This patch cleans up that api by
properly removing it..

8564557a03 video: sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io support
This patch adds sh_mobile_lcdcfb deferred io support for SYS panels.

The LCDC hardware block managed by the sh_mobile_lcdcfb driver supports
RGB or SYS panel configurations. SYS panels come with an external display
controller that is resposible for refreshing the actual LCD panel. RGB
panels are controlled directly by the LCDC and they need to be refreshed
by the LCDC hardware.

In the case of SYS panels we can save some power by configuring the LCDC
hardware block in one-shot mode. In this one-shot mode panel refresh is
managed by software. This works well together with deferred io since it
allows us to stop clocks for most of the time and only enable clocks when
we actually want to trigger an update. When there is no fbdev activity
the clocks are kept stopped which allows us to deep sleep.

The refresh rate in deferred io mode is set using platform data. The same
platform data can also be used to disable deferred io mode.

As with other deferred io frame buffers user space code should use fsync()
on the frame buffer device to trigger an update.

520eb82076 mac80211: implement dynamic power save
This patch implements dynamic power save for mac80211. Basically it
means enabling power save mode after an idle period. Implementing it
dynamically gives a good compromise of low power consumption and low
latency. Some hardware have support for this in firmware, but some
require the host to do it.

The dynamic power save is implemented by adding an timeout to
ieee80211_subif_start_xmit(). The timeout can be enabled from userspace
with Wireless Extensions. For example, the command below enables the
dynamic power save and sets the time timeout to 500 ms:

iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m

Power save now only works with devices which handle power save in firmware.
It's also disabled by default and the heuristics when and how to enable is
considered as a policy decision and will be left for the userspace to handle.
In case the firmware has support for this, drivers can disable this feature
with IEEE80211_HW_NO_STACK_DYNAMIC_PS.

Big thanks to Johannes Berg for the help with the design and code.

acpi_early_init() was changed to over-write the cmdline param,
making it really inconvenient to set debug flags at boot-time.

Also,
This sets the default level to "info", which is what all the ACPI
drivers use.  So to enable messages from drivers, you only have to
supply the "layer" (a.k.a. "component").  For non-"info" ACPI core
and ACPI interpreter messages, you have to supply both level and
layer masks, as before.

3c8bb73ace x86: PAT: store vm_pgoff for all linear_over_vma_region mappings - v3
Impact: Code transformation, new functions added should have no effect.

Drivers use mmap followed by pgprot_* and remap_pfn_range or vm_insert_pfn,
in order to export reserved memory to userspace. Currently, such mappings are
not tracked and hence not kept consistent with other mappings (/dev/mem,
pci resource, ioremap) for the sme memory, that may exist in the system.

The following patchset adds x86 PAT attribute tracking and untracking for
pfnmap related APIs.

First three patches in the patchset are changing the generic mm code to fit
in this tracking. Last four patches are x86 specific to make things work
with x86 PAT code. The patchset aso introduces pgprot_writecombine interface,
which gives writecombine mapping when enabled, falling back to
pgprot_noncached otherwise.

This patch:

While working on x86 PAT, we faced some hurdles with trackking
remap_pfn_range() regions, as we do not have any information to say
whether that PFNMAP mapping is linear for the entire vma range or
it is smaller granularity regions within the vma.

A simple solution to this is to use vm_pgoff as an indicator for
linear mapping over the vma region. Currently, remap_pfn_range
only sets vm_pgoff for COW mappings. Below patch changes the
logic and sets the vm_pgoff irrespective of COW. This will still not
be enough for the case where pfn is zero (vma region mapped to
physical address zero). But, for all the other cases, we can look at
pfnmap VMAs and say whether the mappng is for the entire vma region
or not.

Does the same for the accompanying MDIO driver, and then modifies the TBI
configuration method.  The old way used fields in einfo, which no longer
exists.  The new way is to create an MDIO device-tree node for each instance
of gianfar, and create a tbi-handle property to associate ethernet controllers
with the TBI PHYs they are connected to.

b24a2516d1 ipv6: Add IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option support to setsockopt()
There are three reasons for me to add this support:
1.When no interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data
  item, the interface specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky optionis 
  is used.

RFC3542:
6.7.  Summary of Outgoing Interface Selection

   This document and [RFC-3493] specify various methods that affect the
   selection of the packet's outgoing interface.  This subsection
   summarizes the ordering among those in order to ensure deterministic
   behavior.

   For a given outgoing packet on a given socket, the outgoing interface
   is determined in the following order:

   1. if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data
      item, the interface is used.

   2. otherwise, if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky
      option, the interface is used.

2.When no IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data is received,getsockopt() should 
  return the sticky option value which set with setsockopt().

RFC 3542:
   Issuing getsockopt() for the above options will return the sticky
   option value i.e., the value set with setsockopt().  If no sticky
   option value has been set getsockopt() will return the following
   values:

3.Make the setsockopt implementation POSIX compliant.

092cab7e2c netfilter: ctnetlink: fix missing CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC
This patch fixes an inconsistency in nfnetlink_conntrack.h that
I introduced myself. The problem is that CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC is
missing from enum ctattr_natseq. This inconsistency may lead to
problems in the message parsing in userspace (if the message
contains the CTA_NAT_SEQ_* attributes, of course).

This patch breaks backward compatibility, however, the only known
client of this code is libnetfilter_conntrack which indeed crashes
because it assumes the existence of CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC to do
the parsing.

The CTA_NAT_SEQ_* attributes were introduced in 2.6.25.

73cc19f155 ipv4: Add GRO infrastructure
This patch adds GRO support for IPv4.

The criteria for merging is more stringent than LRO, in particular,
we require all fields in the IP header to be identical except for
the length, ID and checksum.  In addition, the ID must form an
arithmetic sequence with a difference of one.

The ID requirement might seem overly strict, however, most hardware
TSO solutions already obey this rule.  Linux itself also obeys this
whether GSO is in use or not.

In future we could relax this rule by storing the IDs (or rather
making sure that we don't drop them when pulling the aggregate
skb's tail).

d565b0a1a9 net: Add Generic Receive Offload infrastructure
This patch adds the top-level GRO (Generic Receive Offload) infrastructure.
This is pretty similar to LRO except that this is protocol-independent.
Instead of holding packets in an lro_mgr structure, they're now held in
napi_struct.

For drivers that intend to use this, they can set the NETIF_F_GRO bit and
call napi_gro_receive instead of netif_receive_skb or just call netif_rx.
The latter will call napi_receive_skb automatically.  When napi_gro_receive
is used, the driver must either call napi_complete/napi_rx_complete, or
call napi_gro_flush in softirq context if the driver uses the primitives
__napi_complete/__napi_rx_complete.

Protocols will set the gro_receive and gro_complete function pointers in
order to participate in this scheme.

In addition to the packet, gro_receive will get a list of currently held
packets.  Each packet in the list has a same_flow field which is non-zero
if it is a potential match for the new packet.  For each packet that may
match, they also have a flush field which is non-zero if the held packet
must not be merged with the new packet.

Once gro_receive has determined that the new skb matches a held packet,
the held packet may be processed immediately if the new skb cannot be
merged with it.  In this case gro_receive should return the pointer to
the existing skb in gro_list.  Otherwise the new skb should be merged into
the existing packet and NULL should be returned, unless the new skb makes
it impossible for any further merges to be made (e.g., FIN packet) where
the merged skb should be returned.

Whenever the skb is merged into an existing entry, the gro_receive
function should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->same_flow.  Note that if an skb
merely matches an existing entry but can't be merged with it, then
this shouldn't be set.

If gro_receive finds it pointless to hold the new skb for future merging,
it should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush.

Held packets will be flushed by napi_gro_flush which is called by
napi_complete and napi_rx_complete.

Currently held packets are stored in a singly liked list just like LRO.
The list is limited to a maximum of 8 entries.  In future, this may be
expanded to use a hash table to allow more flows to be held for merging.

1a881f27c5 net: Add frag_list support to GSO
This patch allows GSO to handle frag_list in a limited way for the
purposes of allowing packets merged by GRO to be refragmented on
output.

Most hardware won't (and aren't expected to) support handling GRO
frag_list packets directly.  Therefore we will perform GSO in
software for those cases.

However, for drivers that can support it (such as virtual NICs) we
may not have to segment the packets at all.

Whether the added overhead of GRO/GSO is worthwhile for bridges
and routers when weighed against the benefit of potentially
increasing the MTU within the host is still an open question.
However, for the case of host nodes this is undoubtedly a win.

8229efdaef netns: ip6mr: enable namespace support in ipv6 multicast forwarding code
This last patch makes the appropriate changes to use and propagate the
network namespace where needed in IPv6 multicast forwarding code.

This consists mainly in replacing all the remaining init_net occurences
with current netns pointer retrieved from sockets, net devices or 
mfc6_caches depending on the routines' contexts.

Some routines receive a new 'struct net' parameter to propagate the current
netns:
* ip6mr_get_route
* ip6mr_cache_report
* ip6mr_cache_find
* ip6mr_cache_unresolved
* mif6_add/mif6_delete
* ip6mr_mfc_add/ip6mr_mfc_delete
* ip6mr_reg_vif

All the IPv6 multicast forwarding variables moved to struct netns_ipv6 by
the previous patches are now referenced in the correct namespace.

Changelog:
==========
* Take into account the net associated to mfc6_cache when matching entries in
  mfc_unres_queue list.
* Call mroute_clean_tables() in ip6mr_net_exit() to free memory allocated
  per-namespace.
* Call dev_net_set() in ip6mr_reg_vif() to initialize dev->nd_net 
  correctly.

Preliminary work to make IPv6 multicast forwarding netns-aware.

Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: moves it into
struct netns_ipv6.

This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the
list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number
of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine 
ip6mr_cache_unresolved).
Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be
identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in 
struct mfc6_cache.

Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single
timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration.
In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming 
or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing 
mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch.

At the moment, cache_resolve_queue_len is only referenced in init_net.

58701ad411 netns: ip6mr: store netns in struct mfc6_cache
This patch stores into struct mfc6_cache the network namespace each
mfc6_cache belongs to. The new member is mfc6_net.

mfc6_net is assigned at cache allocation and doesn't change during
the rest of the cache entry life.

This will help to retrieve the current netns around the IPv6 multicast
forwarding code.

At the moment, all mfc6_cache are allocated in init_net.

Changelog:
==========
* Use write_pnet()/read_pnet() to set and get mfc6_net.

9c24624727 KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN fixes
Miles Lane tailing /sys files hit a BUG which Pekka Enberg has tracked
to my 966c8c12dc sprint_symbol(): use
less stack exposing a bug in slub's list_locations() -
kallsyms_lookup() writes a 0 to namebuf[KSYM_NAME_LEN-1], but that was
beyond the end of page provided.

The 100 slop which list_locations() allows at end of page looks roughly
enough for all the other stuff it might print after the symbol before
it checks again: break out KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN earlier than before.

Latencytop and ftrace and are using KSYM_NAME_LEN buffers where they
need KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffers, and vmallocinfo a 2*KSYM_NAME_LEN buffer
where it wants a KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffer: fix those before anyone copies
them.

        percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set

As described in

	revert "percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()"

the new percpu_counter_sum_and_set() is racy against updates to the
cpu-local accumulators on other CPUs.  Revert that change.

This means that ext4 will be slow again.  But correct.

    commit 1f7c14c62c

        percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()

Before this patch we had the following:

percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value

percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying
that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before
returning.

After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and
percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality.

Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality was racy and wrong.  It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus,
without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from
those other CPUS.

This patch reverts 1f7c14c62c.  This means
that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but
percpu_counter_sum() does not.

Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using
percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well.

Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics.

Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's
central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read()
will return a close value.

After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's
central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to
percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result.

If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after
e8ced39d5e was merged, and which depends
upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

Another part of the backporting of Liam's ASoC v2 work. Using this is
more complicated than the other registration types since currently the
codec is instantiated during the probe of the ASoC device so we can't
currently readily wait for the codec to register.

7b363e4400 netpoll: fix race on poll_list resulting in garbage entry
A few months back a race was discused between the netpoll napi service
path, and the fast path through net_rx_action:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2007/10/16/345470

A patch was submitted for that bug, but I think we missed a case.

Consider the following scenario:

INITIAL STATE
CPU0 has one napi_struct A on its poll_list
CPU1 is calling netpoll_send_skb and needs to call poll_napi on the same
napi_struct A that CPU0 has on its list



CPU0						CPU1
net_rx_action					poll_napi
!list_empty (returns true)			locks poll_lock for A
						 poll_one_napi
						  napi->poll
						   netif_rx_complete
						    __napi_complete
						    (removes A from poll_list)
list_entry(list->next)


In the above scenario, net_rx_action assumes that the per-cpu poll_list is
exclusive to that cpu.  netpoll of course violates that, and because the netpoll
path can dequeue from the poll list, its possible for CPU0 to detect a non-empty
list at the top of the while loop in net_rx_action, but have it become empty by
the time it calls list_entry.  Since the poll_list isn't surrounded by any other
structure, the returned data from that list_entry call in this situation is
garbage, and any number of crashes can result based on what exactly that garbage
is.

Given that its not fasible for performance reasons to place exclusive locks
arround each cpus poll list to provide that mutal exclusion, I think the best
solution is modify the netpoll path in such a way that we continue to guarantee
that the poll_list for a cpu is in fact exclusive to that cpu.  To do this I've
implemented the patch below.  It adds an additional bit to the state field in
the napi_struct.  When executing napi->poll from the netpoll_path, this bit will
be set. When a driver calls netif_rx_complete, if that bit is set, it will not
remove the napi_struct from the poll_list.  That work will be saved for the next
iteration of net_rx_action.

I've tested this and it seems to work well.  About the biggest drawback I can
see to it is the fact that it might result in an extra loop through
net_rx_action in the event that the device is actually contended for (i.e. the
netpoll path actually preforms all the needed work no the device, and the call
to net_rx_action winds up doing nothing, except removing the napi_struct from
the poll_list.  However I think this is probably a small price to pay, given
that the alternative is a crash.
