2013-07-09net: rename low latency sockets functions to busy pollEliezer Tamir
Rename functions in include/net/ll_poll.h to busy wait. Clarify documentation about expected power use increase. Rename POLL_LL to POLL_BUSY_LOOP. Add need_resched() testing to poll/select busy loops. Note, that in select and poll can_busy_poll is dynamic and is updated continuously to reflect the existence of supported sockets with valid queue information.

2013-07-02lib: vsprintf: add IPv4/v6 generic %p[Ii]S[pfs] format specifierDaniel Borkmann
In order to avoid making code that deals with printing both, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, unnecessary complicated as for example ... if (sa.sa_family == AF_INET6) printk("... %pI6 ...", ..sin6_addr); else printk("... %pI4 ...", ..sin_addr.s_addr); ... it would be better to introduce a format specifier that can deal with those kind of situations internally; just as we have a "struct sockaddr" for generic mapping into "struct sockaddr_in" or "struct sockaddr_in6" as e.g. done in "union sctp_addr". Then, we could reduce the above statement into something like: printk("... %pIS ..", &sockaddr); In case our pointer is NULL, pointer() then deals with that already at an earlier point in time internally. While we're at it, support for both %piS/%pIS, where 'S' stands for sockaddr, comes (almost) for free. Additionally to that, postfix specifiers 'p', 'f' and 's' are supported as suggested and initially implemented in 2009 by Joe Perches [1]. Handling of those additional specifiers orientate on the initial RFC that was proposed. Also we support IPv6 compressed format specified by 'c' and various other IPv4 extensions as stated in the documentation part. Likely, there are many other areas than just SCTP in the kernel to make use of this extension as well.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Found via trinity: If you connect up an ipv6 socket to an ipv4 mapped address then an ipv6 one, sendmsg() can croak because ip6_sk_dst_check() assumes the route cached in the socket is an ipv6 one. In this case there is an ipv4 route attached, so it gets stomped on. Reported by Dave Jones and Hannes Frederic Sowa, fixed by Eric Dumazet. 2) AF_KEY notifications leak some kernel memory to userspace, fix from Mathias Krause. 3) DLCI calls __dev_get_by_name() without proper locking, and dlci_del doesn't validate that the device being deleted is actually a DLCI one. Fixes from Li Zefan. 4) Length check on bluetooth l2cap information responses is wrong, each response type has a different lenth, so we should make sure it's in a given range rather than enforce one single valid length. From Jaganath Kanakkassery. 5) Receive FIFO overflow is really easy to trigger in stress scenerios in the sh_eth driver, but the event isn't being handled properly at all. Specifically, the mask of error interrupts doesn't include the event so we never clear it, resulting in the driver becomming wedged processing an interrupt that never gets cleared. Fix from Sergei Shtylyov. 6) qlcnic sleeps while holding a spinlock, use mdelay() instead of msleep(). From Shahed Shaikh. 7) Missing curly braces causes SIP netfilter NAT module to always drop packets. Fix from Balazs Peter Odor. 8) ipt_ULOG in netfilter passes the wrong value to timer setup, causing the timer to dereference crap when it fires. Fix from Gao Feng. 9) Missing RCU protection around txq->axq_acq traversal in ath_txq_schedule(). Fix from Felix Fietkau. 10) Idle state transition test in ath9k_htc_config() is reversed, fix from Sujith Manoharan. 11) IPV6 forwarding handles unicast Router Alert packets incorrectly. It tests the wrong option state. Previously opt->ra being non-zero indicated a router alert marking in the SKB, but now it's indicated by a bit in opt->flags. Fix from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki. 12) SKB leak in GRE tunnel GSO handling, from Eric Dumazet. 13) get_user_pages_fast() error handling in TUN and MACVTAP use the same local variable for the base index and the loop iterator for page traversal, oops! Fix from Michael S Tsirkin. 14) ipv6_get_lladdr() can fail, and we must therefore check it's return value in inet6_set_iftoken(). For from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) If you change an interface name and meanwhile can sneak in something that looks up the name (like SO_BINDTODEVICE or SIOCGIFNAME) we can deadlock with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n. Fix this by providing a helper function that properly uses raw_seqcount_begin(). From Nicolas Schichan. 16) Chain noise calibration test is inverted in iwlwifi, fix from Nikolay Martynov. 17) Properly set TX iwlwifi descriptor flags for back requests. Fix from Emmanuel Grumbach. 18) We can't assume skb_transport_header() is set in xt_TCPOPTSTRAP module, fix from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 19) Some crummy APs don't provide the proper High Throughput info in association response frames. Add a workaround by assume we'll use whatever is in the beacon/probe. Fix from Johannes Berg. 20) mac80211 call to rate_idx_match_mask() swaps two arguments (mask and channel width). Fix from Simon Wunderlich. 21) xt_TCPMSS (like xt_TCPOPTSTRAP) must not try to handle fragmented frames. Fix from Phil Oester. 22) Fix rate control regression causing iwlwifi/iwlegacy chips to use 1Mbit/s on pre-11n networks. From Moshe Benji and Stanslaw Gruszka. 23) Disable brcmsmac power-save functions, they cause regressions. From Arend van Spriel. 24) Enforce a sane minimum MTU in l2cap_build_cmd() otherwise we can easily crash. Fix from Anderson Lizardo. 25) If a learning packet arrives during vxlan_stop() we crash, easily fixed by checking netif_running(). From Stephen Hemminger. 26) Static vxlan FDB entries should not be migrated, also from Stephen. 27) skb_clone() failures not handled in vxlan_xmit(), oops. Also from Stephen. 28) Add minimal driver for AR816x/AR817x ethernet chips, from Johannes Berg. 29) Fix regression in userspace VLAN acceleration control, added by the 802.1ad support changes. Fix from Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao. 30) Interval selection for MLD queries in the bridging code was reversed. Fix from Linus Lüssing. 31) ipv6's ndisc_send_redirect() erroneously writes to the packet we received not the packet we are building to send out. Fix from Matthias Schiffer. 32) Don't free netdev before unregistering it, in usb_8dev can driver. From Marc Kleine-Budde. 33) Fix nl80211 attribute buffer races, from Johannes Berg. 34) Although netlink_diag.h is under uapi/ it isn't present in Kbuild. From Stephen Hemminger. 35) Wrong address and family passed to MD5 key lookups in TCP, from Aydin Arik. 36) phy_type attribute created by SFC driver should not be writable. From Ben Hutchings. 37) Receive/Transmit queue allocations in pxa168_eth and mv643xx_eth should use kzalloc(). Otherwise if setup fails half-way, we'll dereference garbage when trying to teardown the rings. From Lubomir Rintel. 38) Fix double-allocation of dst (resulting in unfreeable net device) in ipv6's init_loopback(). From Gao Feng. 39) Fix fragmentation handling SKB leak in netfilter conntrack, we were freeing the wrong skb pointer. From Phil Oester. 40) Don't report "-1" (SPEED_UNKNOWN) in bond_miimon_commit(), from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 41) davinci_cpdma doesn't check for DMA mapping errors, letting the device scribble to random addresses.

2013-06-25bonding: add an option to fail when any of arp_ip_target is inaccessibleVeaceslav Falico
Currently, we fail only when all of the ips in arp_ip_target are gone. However, in some situations we might need to fail if even one host from arp_ip_target becomes unavailable. All situations, obviously, rely on the idea that we need *completely* functional network, with all interfaces/addresses working correctly. One real world example might be: vlans on top on bond (hybrid port). If bond and vlans have ips assigned and we have their peers monitored via arp_ip_target - in case of switch misconfiguration (trunk/access port), slave driver malfunction or tagged/untagged traffic dropped on the way - we will be able to switch to another slave. Though any other configuration needs that if we need to have access to all arp_ip_targets. This patch adds this possibility by adding a new parameter - arp_all_targets (both as a module parameter and as a sysfs knob). It can be set to: 0 or any (the default) - which works exactly as it's working now - the slave is up if any of the arp_ip_targets are up. 1 or all - the slave is up if all of the arp_ip_targets are up. This parameter can be changed on the fly (via sysfs), and requires the mode to be active-backup and arp_validate to be enabled (it obeys the arp_validate config on which slaves to validate). Internally it's done through: 1) Add target_last_arp_rx[BOND_MAX_ARP_TARGETS] array to slave struct. It's an array of jiffies, meaning that slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] is the last time we've received arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] on this slave. 2) If we successfully validate an arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] in bond_validate_arp() - update the slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] with the current jiffies value. 3) When getting slave's last_rx via slave_last_rx(), we return the oldest time when we've received an arp from any address in bond->params.arp_targets[]. If the value of arp_all_targets == 0 - we still work the same way as before. Also, update the documentation to reflect the new parameter. v3->v4: Kill the forgotten rtnl_unlock(), rephrase the documentation part to be more clear, don't fail setting arp_all_targets if arp_validate is not set - it has no effect anyway but can be easier to set up. Also, print a warning if the last arp_ip_target is removed while the arp_interval is on, but not the arp_validate. v2->v3: Use _bh spinlock, remove useless rtnl_lock() and use jiffies for new arp_ip_target last arp, instead of slave_last_rx(). On bond_enslave(), use the same initialization value for target_last_arp_rx[] as is used for the default last_arp_rx, to avoid useless interface flaps. Also, instead of failing to remove the last arp_ip_target just print a warning - otherwise it might break existing scripts. v1->v2: Correctly handle adding/removing hosts in arp_ip_target - we need to shift/initialize all slave's target_last_arp_rx. Also, don't fail module loading on arp_all_targets misconfiguration, just disable it, and some minor style fixes. Signed-off-by: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

select/poll busy-poll support. Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll. updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found. When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something. Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can return the result to the user ASAP. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezer.tamir@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-17tipc: change socket buffer overflow control to respect sk_rcvbufYing Xue
As per feedback from the netdev community, we change the buffer overflow protection algorithm in receiving sockets so that it always respects the nominal upper limit set in sk_rcvbuf. Instead of scaling up from a small sk_rcvbuf value, which leads to violation of the configured sk_rcvbuf limit, we now calculate the weighted per-message limit by scaling down from a much bigger value, still in the same field, according to the importance priority of the received message. To allow for administrative tunability of the socket receive buffer size, we create a tipc_rmem sysctl variable to allow the user to configure an even bigger value via sysctl command. It is a size of three (min/default/max) to be consistent with things like tcp_rmem. By default, the value initialized in tipc_rmem[1] is equal to the receive socket size needed by a TIPC_CRITICAL_IMPORTANCE message. This value is also set as the default value of sk_rcvbuf.

2013-06-11net: add low latency socket pollEliezer Tamir
Adds an ndo_ll_poll method and the code that supports it.

2013-05-31powerpc/tm: Fix userspace stack corruption on signal delivery for active ↵Michael Neuling
transactions When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer. Tested with 64 and 32 bit signals Signed-off-by: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v3.9 Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2013-05-31powerpc/tm: Abort on emulation and alignment faultsMichael Neuling
If we are emulating an instruction inside an active user transaction that touches memory, the kernel can't emulate it as it operates in transactional suspend context. We need to abort these transactions and send them back to userspace for the hardware to rollback. We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the kernel will operate in the same suspend context. This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction emulations (only string instructions for now). If the user process is in an active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the failure. This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the persistent error to the user.

2013-05-24drivers/video: implement a simple framebuffer driverStephen Warren
A simple frame-buffer describes a raw memory region that may be rendered to, with the assumption that the display hardware has already been set up to scan out from that buffer. This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display hardware. Examples use-cases include: * The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF. * Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the Raspberry Pi. * Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process, thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.
