Since GCC 4.4, there have been __builtin_bswap32() and __builtin_bswap16()
intrinsics. A __builtin_bswap16() came a little later (4.6 for PowerPC,
48 for other platforms).
By using these instead of the inline assembler that most architectures
have in their __arch_swabXX() macros, we let the compiler see what's
actually happening. The resulting code should be at least as good, and
much *better* in the cases where it can be combined with a nearby load
or store, using a load-and-byteswap or store-and-byteswap instruction
(e.g. lwbrx/stwbrx on PowerPC, movbe on Atom).
When GCC is sufficiently recent *and* the architecture opts in to using
the intrinsics by setting CONFIG_ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP, they will be
used in preference to the __arch_swabXX() macros. An architecture which
does not set ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP will continue to use its own
hand-crafted macros.

A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD, returns a file descriptor. Reads on
this fd return the contents of the HPT (hashed page table), writes
create and/or remove entries in the HPT. There is a new capability,
KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD, to indicate the presence of the ioctl. The ioctl
takes an argument structure with the index of the first HPT entry to
read out and a set of flags. The flags indicate whether the user is
intending to read or write the HPT, and whether to return all entries
or only the "bolted" entries (those with the bolted bit, 0x10, set in
the first doubleword).
This is intended for use in implementing qemu's savevm/loadvm and for
live migration. Therefore, on reads, the first pass returns information
about all HPTEs (or all bolted HPTEs). When the first pass reaches the
end of the HPT, it returns from the read. Subsequent reads only return
information about HPTEs that have changed since they were last read.
A read that finds no changed HPTEs in the HPT following where the last
read finished will return 0 bytes.
The format of the data provides a simple run-length compression of the
invalid entries. Each block of data starts with a header that indicates
the index (position in the HPT, which is just an array), the number of
valid entries starting at that index (may be zero), and the number of
invalid entries following those valid entries. The valid entries, 16
bytes each, follow the header. The invalid entries are not explicitly
represented.

* Remove limitation in the maximum number of supported sets in ipset.
Now ipset automagically increments the number of slots in the array
of sets by 64 new spare slots, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
* Partially remove the generic queue infrastructure now that ip_queue

Westphal.
* Add missing attribute policy checkings in ctnetlink, from Florian
Westphal.
* Automagically kill conntrack entries that use the wrong output
interface for the masquerading case in case of routing changes,
from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
* Two patches two improve ct object traceability. Now ct objects are
always placed in any of the existing lists. This allows us to dump
the content of unconfirmed and dying conntracks via ctnetlink as
a way to provide more instrumentation in case you suspect leaks,
from myself.

This patch adds userptr feautre for G2D module.
The userptr means user space address allocated by malloc().
And the purpose of this feature is to make G2D's dma able
to access the user space region.
To user this feature, user should flag G2D_BUF_USRPTR to
offset variable of struct drm_exynos_g2d_cmd and fill
struct drm_exynos_g2d_userptr with user space address
and size for it and then should set a pointer to
drm_exynos_g2d_userptr object to data variable of struct
drm_exynos_g2d_cmd. The last bit of offset variable is used
to check if the cmdlist's buffer type is userptr or not.
If userptr, the g2d driver gets user space address and size
and then gets pages through get_user_pages().
(another case is counted as gem handle)
Below is sample codes:
static void set_cmd(struct drm_exynos_g2d_cmd *cmd,
unsigned long offset, unsigned long data)
{
cmd->offset = offset;
cmd->data = data;
}
static int solid_fill_test(int x, int y, unsigned long userptr)
{
struct drm_exynos_g2d_cmd cmd_gem[5];
struct drm_exynos_g2d_userptr g2d_userptr;
unsigned int gem_nr = 0;
...
g2d_userptr.userptr = userptr;
g2d_userptr.size = x * y * 4;
set_cmd(&cmd_gem[gem_nr++], DST_BASE_ADDR_REG |
G2D_BUF_USERPTR,
(unsigned long)&g2d_userptr);
...
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
unsigned long addr;
...
addr = malloc(x * y * 4);
...
solid_fill_test(x, y, addr);
...
}
And next, the pages are mapped with iommu table and the device
address is set to cmdlist so that G2D's dma can access it.
As you may know, the pages from get_user_pages() are pinned.
In other words, they CAN NOT be migrated and also swapped out.
So the dma access would be safe.
But the use of userptr feature has performance overhead so
this patch also has memory pool to the userptr feature.
Please, assume that user sends cmdlist filled with userptr
and size every time to g2d driver, and the get_user_pages
funcion will be called every time.
The memory pool has maximum 64MB size and the userptr that
user had ever sent, is holded in the memory pool.
This meaning is that if the userptr from user is same as one
in the memory pool, device address to the userptr in the memory
pool is set to cmdlist.
And last, the pages from get_user_pages() will be freed once
user calls free() and the dma access is completed. Actually,
get_user_pages() takes 2 reference counts if the user process
has never accessed user region allocated by malloc(). Then, if
the user calls free(), the page reference count becomes 1 and
becomes 0 with put_page() call. And the reverse holds as well.
This means how the pages backed are used by dma and freed.
This patch is based on "drm/exynos: add iommu support for g2d",

Historically tun supported two modes of operation:
- in default mode, a small number of packets would get queued
at the device, the rest would be queued in qdisc
- in one queue mode, all packets would get queued at the device
This might have made sense up to a point where we made the
queue depth for both modes the same and set it to
a huge value (500) so unless the consumer
is stuck the chance of losing packets is small.
Thus in practice both modes behave the same, but the
default mode has some problems:
- if packets are never consumed, fragments are never orphaned
which cases a DOS for sender using zero copy transmit
- overrun errors are hard to diagnose: fifo error is incremented
only once so you can not distinguish between
userspace that is stuck and a transient failure,
tcpdump on the device does not show any traffic
Userspace solves this simply by enabling IFF_ONE_QUEUE
but there seems to be little point in not doing the
right thing for everyone, by default.

This patch adds a new operation to dump the content of the dying and
unconfirmed lists.
Under some situations, the global conntrack counter can be inconsistent
with the number of entries that we can dump from the conntrack table.
The way to resolve this is to allow dumping the content of the unconfirmed
and dying lists, so far it was not possible to look at its content.
This provides some extra instrumentation to resolve problematic situations
in which anyone suspects memory leaks.

Change nl80211 to support specifying a VHT (or HT)
using the control channel frequency (as before) and
new attributes for the channel width and first and
second center frequency. The old channel type is of
course still supported for HT.
Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct
to support these by adding the relevant fields to
it (and removing the _type field.)
This also adds new helper functions:
- cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def
struct given the control channel and channel type,
- cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel
definitions are identical
- cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given
channel definitions are compatible, and return the
wider of the two
This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter
until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's
missing
- regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that
even makes sense)
- regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it)
- a proper channel compatibility calculation for the
new channel types

As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the
only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel
with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it.
This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations
right now.
Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or
not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code
by removing the ability to use different channel types.
Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if
we extend it again later (with the needed capability
flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

Jumps in the vblank and page flip event timestamps cause trouble for
clients, so we should avoid them. The timestamp we get currently with
gettimeofday can jump, so use instead monotonic timestamps.
For backward compatibility use a module flag to revert back to using
gettimeofday timestamps. Add also a DRM_CAP_TIMESTAMP_MONOTONIC flag
that is simply a read only version of the module flag, so that clients
can query this without depending on sysfs.

Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch
have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order -
and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel
headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead.
Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include.
This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally,
we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want
asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI -
at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards
*should* be transferred there.
I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing
all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this
be changed to use -MD?
Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate
linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that
perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain
bisectability.

function for generating a TDLS operation event for drivers to request a

The major difference is that its scheduled removal is no longer included

- IDR library usage for NFC devices indexes assignement.
- NFC netlink extension for setting and getting LLCP link characteristics.
- Various code style fixes and cleanups spread over the pn533, LLCP, HCI and

"Please pull my mac80211-next tree to get the first round of new features
for 3.8. We have:
* finally, the mac80211 multi-channel work
* scan improvements:

- scan flush
- forced AP scan
* cfg80211 tracing
* a bit of new code to allow implementing SAE (secure authentication of
equals) in managed mode
Along with a few random improvements, features and fixes."
and...
"Please pull from mac80211-next (per below pull request) to get a few
updates. Most important is probably the fix for the WDS regression that
my previous pull request introduced. Other than that, I have some
tracing code, two mesh updates and a change to allow drivers to

This is Linux bridge implementation of root port guard.
If BPDU is received from a leaf (edge) port, it should not
be elected as root port.
Why would you want to do this?
If using STP on a bridge and the downstream bridges are not fully
trusted; this prevents a hostile guest for rerouting traffic.
Why not just use netfilter?
Netfilter does not track of follow spanning tree decisions.
It would be difficult and error prone to try and mirror STP
resolution in netfilter module.

This is Linux bridge implementation of STP protection
(Cisco BPDU guard/Juniper BPDU block). BPDU block disables
the bridge port if a STP BPDU packet is received.
Why would you want to do this?
If running Spanning Tree on bridge, hostile devices on the network
may send BPDU and cause network failure. Enabling bpdu block
will detect and stop this.
How to recover the port?
The port will be restarted if link is brought down, or
removed and reattached. For example:
# ip li set dev eth0 down; ip li set dev eth0 up

Expose bridge port parameter over netlink. By switching to a nested
message, this can be used for other bridge parameters.
This changes IFLA_PROTINFO attribute from one byte to a full nested
set of attributes. This is safe for application interface because the
old message used IFLA_PROTINFO and new one uses
IFLA_PROTINFO | NLA_F_NESTED.
The code adapts to old format requests, and therefore stays
compatible with user mode RSTP daemon. Since the type field
for nested and unnested attributes are different, and the old
code in libnetlink doesn't do the mask, it is also safe to use
with old versions of bridge monitor command.
Note: although mode is only a boolean, treating it as a
full byte since in the future someone will probably want to add more
values (like macvlan has).

This patch introduces a new knob ndisc_notify. If enabled, the kernel
will transmit an unsolicited neighbour advertisement on link-layer address
change to update the neighbour tables of the corresponding hosts more quickly.
This is the equivalent to arp_notify in ipv4 world.

wpa_supplicant will do OBSS scan for drivers that implement
auth/assoc API. Drivers that implement nl80211 connect API
(rather than auth/assoc) may need wpa_supplicant to do this
as well.
Add a new feature flag to inform it (wpa_s) that a driver
needs wpa_supplicant to do OBSS scans.
