Commit 7a3198a8 ("ipv6: helper function to get tclass") introduced
ipv6_tclass(), but similar function is already available as
ipv6_get_dsfield().
We might be able to call ipv6_tclass() from ipv6_get_dsfield(),
but it is confusing to have two versions.

This patch makes it so that we can support transmit packet steering without
sysfs needing to be enabled. The reason for making this change is to make
it so that a driver can make use of the XPS even while the sysfs portion of
the interface is not present.

This patch adds two functions, netif_reset_xps_queue and
netif_set_xps_queue. The main idea behind these two functions is to
provide a mechanism through which drivers can update their defaults in
regards to XPS.
Currently no such mechanism exists and as a result we cannot use XPS for
things such as ATR which would require a basic configuration to start in
which the Tx queues are mapped to CPUs via a 1:1 mapping. With this change
I am making it possible for drivers such as ixgbe to be able to use the XPS
feature by controlling the default configuration.

This change splits the core bits of netdev_pick_tx into a separate function.
The main idea behind this is to make this code accessible to select queue

own custom path in their select queue routine.

BCMA is a Broadcom specific bus with devices AKA cores. All recent BCMA
based SoCs have gigabit ethernet provided by the GBit MAC core. This
patch adds driver for such a cores registering itself as a netdev. It
has been tested on a BCM4706 and BCM4718 chipsets.
In the kernel tree there is already b44 driver which has some common
things with bgmac, however there are many differences that has led to
the decision or writing a new driver:
1) GBit MAC cores appear on BCMA bus (not SSB as in case of b44)
2) There is 64bit DMA engine which differs from 32bit one
3) There is no CAM (Content Addressable Memory) in GBit MAC
4) We have 4 TX queues on GBit MAC devices (instead of 1)
5) Many registers have different addresses/values
6) RX header flags are also different
The driver in it's state is functional how, however there is of course
place for improvements:
1) Supporting more net_device_ops
2) SUpporting more ethtool_ops
3) Unaligned addressing in DMA
4) Writing separated PHY driver

We have skb_mac_header_was_set() helper to tell if mac_header
was set on a skb. We would like the same for transport_header.
__netif_receive_skb() doesn't reset the transport header if already
set by GRO layer.
Note that network stacks usually reset the transport header anyway,
after pulling the network header, so this change only allows
a followup patch to have more precise qdisc pkt_len computation
for GSO packets at ingress side.

This lists are supposed to serve for storing pointers to all upper devices.
Eventually it will replace dev->master pointer which is used for
bonding, bridge, team but it cannot be used for vlan, macvlan where
there might be multiple upper present. In case the upper link is
replacement for dev->master, it is marked with "master" flag.
New upper device list resolves this limitation. Also, the information
stored in lists is used for preventing looping setups like
"bond->somethingelse->samebond"

Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and
(PageHead) is true, for tail pages. If this is indeed the intended
behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM
systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic.
This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail
is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages.
[ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr
2008 in commit 6a1e7f777f61: "pageflags: convert to the use of new
macros". And the reason nobody noticed is because the PageHead()
tests are almost all about just sanity-checking, and only used on
pages that are actual page heads. The fact that the old code returned
true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable. - Linus ]

Oleg pointed out that in a pid namespace the sequence.
- pid 1 becomes a zombie
- setns(thepidns), fork,...
- reaping pid 1.
- The injected processes exiting.
Can lead to processes attempting access their child reaper and
instead following a stale pointer.
That waitpid for init can return before all of the processes in
the pid namespace have exited is also unfortunate.
Avoid these problems by disabling the allocation of new pids in a pid
namespace when init dies, instead of when the last process in a pid
namespace is reaped.

Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target.
Targets can set this field in the constructor. If a target sets this
field to a non-zero value, "per_bio_data_size" bytes of auxiliary data
are allocated for each bio submitted to the target. These data can be
used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by
removing some per-target mempools.
Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The
argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in
dm_target.
If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to
the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the
same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

Commit 263a523d18bc ("linux/kernel.h: Fix warning seen with W=1 due to
change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST") fixes a warning seen with W=1 due to
change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST.
Unfortunately, the C compiler converts divide operations with unsigned
divisors to unsigned, even if the dividend is signed and negative (for
example, -10 / 5U = 858993457). The C standard says "If one operand has
unsigned int type, the other operand is converted to unsigned int", so
the compiler is not to blame. As a result, DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U) and
similar operations now return bad values, since the automatic conversion
of expressions such as "0 - 2U/2" to unsigned was not taken into
account.
Fix by checking for the divisor variable type when deciding which
operation to perform. This fixes DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U), but still
returns bad values for negative dividends divided by unsigned divisors.
Mark the latter case as unsupported.
One observed effect of this problem is that the s2c_hwmon driver reports
a value of 4198403 instead of 0 if the ADC reads 0.
Other impact is unpredictable. Problem is seen if the divisor is an
unsigned variable or constant and the dividend is less than (divisor/2).

If a series of scripts are executed, each triggering module loading via
unprintable bytes in the script header, kernel stack contents can leak
into the command line.
Normally execution of binfmt_script and binfmt_misc happens recursively.
However, when modules are enabled, and unprintable bytes exist in the
bprm->buf, execution will restart after attempting to load matching
binfmt modules. Unfortunately, the logic in binfmt_script and
binfmt_misc does not expect to get restarted. They leave bprm->interp
pointing to their local stack. This means on restart bprm->interp is
left pointing into unused stack memory which can then be copied into the
userspace argv areas.
After additional study, it seems that both recursion and restart remains
the desirable way to handle exec with scripts, misc, and modules. As
such, we need to protect the changes to interp.
This changes the logic to require allocation for any changes to the
bprm->interp. To avoid adding a new kmalloc to every exec, the default
value is left as-is. Only when passing through binfmt_script or
binfmt_misc does an allocation take place.

Pull nfsd update from Bruce Fields:
"Included this time:
- more nfsd containerization work from Stanislav Kinsbursky: we're
not quite there yet, but should be by 3.9.
- NFSv4.1 progress: implementation of basic backchannel security
negotiation and the mandatory BACKCHANNEL_CTL operation. See
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues
for remaining TODO's
- Fixes for some bugs that could be triggered by unusual compounds.
Our xdr code wasn't designed with v4 compounds in mind, and it
shows. A more thorough rewrite is still a todo.
- If you've ever seen "RPC: multiple fragments per record not
supported" logged while using some sort of odd userland NFS client,
that should now be fixed.
- Further work from Jeff Layton on our mechanism for storing
information about NFSv4 clients across reboots.
- Further work from Bryan Schumaker on his fault-injection mechanism
(which allows us to discard selective NFSv4 state, to excercise
rarely-taken recovery code paths in the client.)
- The usual mix of miscellaneous bugs and cleanup.
Thanks to everyone who tested or contributed this cycle."

Provide a proper invalidation method rather than relying on the netfs retiring
the cookie it has and getting a new one. The problem with this is that isn't
easy for the netfs to make sure that it has completed/cancelled all its
outstanding storage and retrieval operations on the cookie it is retiring.
Instead, have the cache provide an invalidation method that will cancel or wait
for all currently outstanding operations before invalidating the cache, and
will cause new operations to queue up behind that. Whilst invalidation is in
progress, some requests will be rejected until the cache can stack a barrier on
the operation queue to cause new operations to be deferred behind it.

Pull Ceph update from Sage Weil:
"There are a few different groups of commits here. The largest is
Alex's ongoing work to enable the coming RBD features (cloning,

Cyril and David have fixed some problems with NFS reexport (leaking
dentries and page locks), and there is a batch of patches from Yan
fixing problems with the fs client when running against a clustered

which will be going to the stable trees once they're upstream.
My apologies for the late pull. There is still a gremlin in the rbd
map/unmap code and I was hoping to include the fix for that as well,
but we haven't been able to confirm the fix is correct yet; I'll send
that in a separate pull once it's nailed down."

Fix the state management of internal fscache operations and the accounting of
what operations are in what states.
This is done by:
(1) Give struct fscache_operation a enum variable that directly represents the
state it's currently in, rather than spreading this knowledge over a bunch
of flags, who's processing the operation at the moment and whether it is
queued or not.
This makes it easier to write assertions to check the state at various
points and to prevent invalid state transitions.
(2) Add an 'operation complete' state and supply a function to indicate the
completion of an operation (fscache_op_complete()) and make things call
it. The final call to fscache_put_operation() can then check that an op
in the appropriate state (complete or cancelled).
(3) Adjust the use of object->n_ops, ->n_in_progress, ->n_exclusive to better
govern the state of an object:
(a) The ->n_ops is now the number of extant operations on the object
and is now decremented by fscache_put_operation() only.
(b) The ->n_in_progress is simply the number of objects that have been
taken off of the object's pending queue for the purposes of being
run. This is decremented by fscache_op_complete() only.
(c) The ->n_exclusive is the number of exclusive ops that have been
submitted and queued or are in progress. It is decremented by
fscache_op_complete() and by fscache_cancel_op().
fscache_put_operation() and fscache_operation_gc() now no longer try to
clean up ->n_exclusive and ->n_in_progress. That was leading to double
decrements against fscache_cancel_op().
fscache_cancel_op() now no longer decrements ->n_ops. That was leading to
double decrements against fscache_put_operation().
fscache_submit_exclusive_op() now decides whether it has to queue an op
based on ->n_in_progress being > 0 rather than ->n_ops > 0 as the latter
will persist in being true even after all preceding operations have been
cancelled or completed. Furthermore, if an object is active and there are
runnable ops against it, there must be at least one op running.
(4) Add a remaining-pages counter (n_pages) to struct fscache_retrieval and
provide a function to record completion of the pages as they complete.
When n_pages reaches 0, the operation is deemed to be complete and
fscache_op_complete() is called.
Add calls to fscache_retrieval_complete() anywhere we've finished with a
page we've been given to read or allocate for. This includes places where
we just return pages to the netfs for reading from the server and where
accessing the cache fails and we discard the proposed netfs page.
The bugs in the unfixed state management manifest themselves as oopses like the
following where the operation completion gets out of sync with return of the
cookie by the netfs. This is possible because the cache unlocks and returns
all the netfs pages before recording its completion - which means that there's
nothing to stop the netfs discarding them and returning the cookie.

Pull new F2FS filesystem from Jaegeuk Kim:
"Introduce a new file system, Flash-Friendly File System (F2FS), to
Linux 3.8.
Highlights:
- Add initial f2fs source codes
- Fix an endian conversion bug
- Fix build failures on random configs
- Fix the power-off-recovery routine
- Minor cleanup, coding style, and typos patches"
From the Kconfig help text:
F2FS is based on Log-structured File System (LFS), which supports
versatile "flash-friendly" features. The design has been focused on
addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect
of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead.
Since flash-based storages show different characteristics according to
the internal geometry or flash memory management schemes aka FTL, F2FS
and tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk
layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms.
and there's an article by Neil Brown about it on lwn.net:

Under some circumstances CacheFiles defers the marking of pages with PG_fscache
so that it can take advantage of pagevecs to reduce the number of calls to
fscache_mark_pages_cached() and the netfs's hook to keep track of this.
There are, however, two problems with this:
(1) It can lead to the PG_fscache mark being applied _after_ the page is set
PG_uptodate and unlocked (by the call to fscache_end_io()).
(2) CacheFiles's ref on the page is dropped immediately following
fscache_end_io() - and so may not still be held when the mark is applied.
This can lead to the page being passed back to the allocator before the
mark is applied.
Fix this by, where appropriate, marking the page before calling
fscache_end_io() and releasing the page. This means that we can't take
advantage of pagevecs and have to make a separate call for each page to the
marking routines.
The symptoms of this are Bad Page state errors cropping up under memory
pressure, for example:
BUG: Bad page state in process tar pfn:002da
page:ffffea0000009fb0 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping: (null) index:0x1447

[<ffffffff813ac37b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
As can be seen, PG_private_2 (== PG_fscache) is set in the page flags.
Instrumenting fscache_mark_pages_cached() to verify whether page->mapping was
set appropriately showed that sometimes it wasn't. This led to the discovery
that sometimes the page has apparently been reclaimed by the time the marker
got to see it.
