Pull networking changes from David Miller: 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov. 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman. 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko. 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar. 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy. 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others. 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel Borkmann. 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet. 12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation. From Stephen Hemminger. 13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around. Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user namespace changes. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1012 commits) hyperv: Add buffer for extended info after the RNDIS response message. hyperv: Report actual status in receive completion packet hyperv: Remove extra allocated space for recv_pkt_list elements hyperv: Fix page buffer handling in rndis_filter_send_request() hyperv: Fix the missing return value in rndis_filter_set_packet_filter() hyperv: Fix the max_xfer_size in RNDIS initialization vxlan: put UDP socket in correct namespace vxlan: Depend on CONFIG_INET sfc: Fix the reported priorities of different filter types sfc: Remove EFX_FILTER_FLAG_RX_OVERRIDE_IP sfc: Fix loopback self-test with separate_tx_channels=1 sfc: Fix MCDI structure field lookup sfc: Add parentheses around use of bitfield macro arguments sfc: Fix null function pointer in efx_sriov_channel_type vxlan: virtual extensible lan igmp: export symbol ip_mc_leave_group netlink: add attributes to fdb interface tg3: unconditionally select HWMON support when tg3 is enabled.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar: 0. 'idle RCU': Adds RCU APIs that allow non-idle tasks to enter RCU idle mode and provides x86 code to make use of them, allowing RCU to treat user-mode execution as an extended quiescent state when the new RCU_USER_QS kernel configuration parameter is specified. (Work is in progress to port this to a few other architectures, but is not part of this series.) 1. A fix for a latent bug that has been in RCU ever since the addition of CPU stall warnings. This bug results in false-positive stall warnings, but thus far only on embedded systems with severely cut-down userspace configurations. 2. Further reductions in latency spikes for huge systems, along with additional boot-time adaptation to the actual hardware. This is a large change, as it moves RCU grace-period initialization and cleanup, along with quiescent-state forcing, from softirq to a kthread. However, it appears to be in quite good shape (famous last words). 3. Updates to documentation and rcutorture, the latter category including keeping statistics on CPU-hotplug latencies and fixing some initialization-time races. 4. CPU-hotplug fixes and improvements. 5. Idle-loop fixes that were omitted on an earlier submission. 6. Miscellaneous fixes and improvements In certain RCU configurations new kernel threads will show up (rcu_bh, rcu_sched), showing RCU processing overhead. * 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (90 commits) rcu: Apply micro-optimization and int/bool fixes to RCU's idle handling rcu: Userspace RCU extended QS selftest x86: Exit RCU extended QS on notify resume x86: Use the new schedule_user API on userspace preemption rcu: Exit RCU extended QS on user preemption rcu: Exit RCU extended QS on kernel preemption after irq/exception x86: Exception hooks for userspace RCU extended QS x86: Unspaghettize do_general_protection() x86: Syscall hooks for userspace RCU extended QS rcu: Switch task's syscall hooks on context switch rcu: Ignore userspace extended quiescent state by default rcu: Allow rcu_user_enter()/exit() to nest rcu: Settle config for userspace extended quiescent state rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ handle adaptive ticks rcu: New rcu_user_enter_after_irq() and rcu_user_exit_after_irq() APIs rcu: New rcu_user_enter() and rcu_user_exit() APIs ia64: Add missing RCU idle APIs on idle loop xtensa: Add missing RCU idle APIs on idle loop score: Add missing RCU idle APIs on idle loop parisc: Add missing RCU idle APIs on idle loop ...

2012-09-25lib/flex_proportions.c: fix corruption of denominator in flexible proportionsJan Kara1-1/+1
When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative values for the number of observed events. This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits. This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's 3.6.0-rc6 based kernel. Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly) thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

2012-09-23rcu: Add PROVE_RCU_DELAY to provoke difficult racesPaul E. McKenney1-0/+14
There have been some recent bugs that were triggered only when preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_unlock() was preempted just after setting ->rcu_read_lock_nesting to INT_MIN, which is a low-probability event. Therefore, reproducing those bugs (to say nothing of gaining confidence in alleged fixes) was quite difficult. This commit therefore creates a new debug-only RCU kernel config option that forces a short delay in __rcu_read_unlock() to increase the probability of those sorts of bugs occurring.

netdev_printk originally called dev_printk with %pV. This style emitted the complete dev_printk header with a colon followed by the netdev_name prefix followed by a colon.

2012-09-17netdev_printk/dynamic_netdev_dbg: Directly call printk_emitJoe Perches1-3/+23
A lot of stack is used in recursive printks with %pV. Using multiple levels of %pV (a logging function with %pV that calls another logging function with %pV) can consume more stack than necessary. Avoid excessive stack use by not calling dev_printk from netdev_printk and dynamic_netdev_dbg. Duplicate the logic and form of dev_printk instead. Make __netdev_printk static.

2012-09-17dev_dbg/dynamic_debug: Update to use printk_emit, optimize stackJoe Perches1-10/+29
commit c4e00daaa9 ("driver-core: extend dev_printk() to pass structured data") changed __dev_printk and broke dynamic-debug's ability to control the dynamic prefix of dev_dbg(dev,..). commit af7f2158fd ("drivers-core: make structured logging play nice with dynamic-debug") made a minimal correction. The current dynamic debug code uses up to 3 recursion levels via %pV. This can consume quite a bit of stack. Directly call printk_emit to reduce the recursion depth. These changes include: dev_dbg: o Create and use function create_syslog_header to format the syslog header for printk_emit uses. o Call create_syslog_header and neaten __dev_printk o Make __dev_printk static not global o Remove include header declaration of __dev_printk o Remove now unused EXPORT_SYMBOL() of __dev_printk o Whitespace neatening dynamic_dev_dbg: o Remove KERN_DEBUG from dynamic_emit_prefix o Call create_syslog_header and printk_emit o Whitespace neatening Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Acked-by: David S.

We are seeing a lot of sg_alloc_table allocation failures using the new drm prime infrastructure. We isolated the cause to code in __sg_alloc_table that was re-writing the gfp_flags.

2012-07-30PM: PM notifier error injection moduleAkinobu Mita3-0/+74
This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to PM notifier chain callbacks. It is controlled through debugfs interface under /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/pm Each of the files in "error" directory represents an event which can be failed and contains the error code. If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events notified, write the error code to the files. If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events notified, write the error code to "actions/<notifier event>/error".

2012-07-30cpu: rewrite cpu-notifier-error-inject moduleAkinobu Mita2-40/+39
Rewrite existing cpu-notifier-error-inject module to use debugfs based new framework. This change removes cpu_up_prepare_error and cpu_down_prepare_error module parameters which were used to specify error code to be injected. We could keep these module parameters for backward compatibility by module_param_cb but it seems overkill for this module. This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to CPU notifier chain callbacks. It is controlled through debugfs interface under /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events notified, write the error code to "actions/<notifier event>/error". Example1: inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM) # cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu # echo -1 > actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted Example2: inject CPU online error (-2 == -ENOENT) # cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu # echo -2 > actions/CPU_UP_PREPARE/error # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Cc: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz> Cc: "Rafael J.

2012-07-30fault-injection: notifier error injectionAkinobu Mita4-0/+148
This patchset provides kernel modules that can be used to test the error handling of notifier call chain failures by injecting artifical errors to the following notifier chain callbacks. * CPU notifier * PM notifier * memory hotplug notifier * powerpc pSeries reconfig notifier Example: Inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM) # cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu # echo -1 > actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted The patchset also adds cpu and memory hotplug tests to tools/testing/selftests These tests first do simple online and offline test and then do fault injection tests if notifier error injection module is available. This patch: The notifier error injection provides the ability to inject artifical errors to specified notifier chain callbacks. It is useful to test the error handling of notifier call chain failures. This adds common basic functions to define which type of events can be fail and to initialize the debugfs interface to control what error code should be returned and which event should be failed.

2012-07-30scatterlist: add sg_alloc_table_from_pages functionTomasz Stanislawski1-0/+64
This patch adds a new constructor for an sg table. The table is constructed from an array of struct pages. All contiguous chunks of the pages are merged into a single sg nodes. A user may provide an offset and a size of a buffer if the buffer is not page-aligned. The function is dedicated for DMABUF exporters which often perform conversion from an page array to a scatterlist. Moreover the scatterlist should be squashed in order to save memory and to speed-up the process of DMA mapping using dma_map_sg. The code is based on the patch 'v4l: vb2-dma-contig: add support for scatterlist in userptr mode' and hints from Laurent Pinchart.

Pull networking changes from David S Miller: 1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache. Now lookups go directly into the FIB trie and use prebuilt routes cached there. No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing cache. Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance, no matter what the pattern of traffic we service. This has been almost 2 years in the making. Special thanks to Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who have helped along the way. I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this point. Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to fix things :-) The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description of the motivations and implementation issues. 2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on input. 3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet. 4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao Feng. 5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from Yuval Mintz. 6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet. 7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver, from Jiri Pirko. 9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with embedded gotos. 10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued up in the packet scheduler layer. Whereas the existing BQL (Byte Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --> netdevice queuing levels, this controls the TCP --> pkt_sched queueing levels. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments, from Alexander Duyck. 12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from Eric Dumazet. 13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng. Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up fastopen data. 14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events hit a locked socket. The TCP Small Queues changes added a tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too. From Eric Dumazet. 15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S.
