Introduce __ipv6_addr_diff64() to to find the first different bit between two addresses on 64bit architectures. 32bit version is still available as __ipv6_addr_diff32(), and __ipv6_addr_diff() automatically selects appropriate version.

2013-01-14ipv6: Use ipv6_get_dsfield() instead of ipv6_tclass().YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明
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. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-14ipv6: Introduce ip6_flow_hdr() to fill version, tclass and flowlabel.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明
This is not only for readability but also for optimization. What we do here is to build the 32bit word at the beginning of the ipv6 header (the "ip6_flow" virtual member of struct ip6_hdr in RFC3542) and we do not need to read the tclass portion of the target buffer.

2013-01-11net: Add support for XPS without sysfs being definedAlexander Duyck
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.

2013-01-11net: Add functions netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queueAlexander Duyck
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.

2013-01-11net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_txAlexander Duyck
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 functions when they decide to process the standard path instead of their own custom path in their select queue routine.

2013-01-10bgmac: driver for GBit MAC core on BCMA busRafał Miłecki
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 Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-09net: introduce skb_transport_header_was_set()Eric Dumazet
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.

2012-12-26mm: Fix PageHead when !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDEDChristoffer Dall
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 ] Signed-off-by: Christoffer Dall <cdall@cs.columbia.edu> Acked-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Will Deacon <Will.Deacon@arm.com> Cc: Steve Capper <Steve.Capper@arm.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.26+ Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-12-26pidns: Stop pid allocation when init diesEric W. Biederman
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.

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).

2012-12-21linux/kernel.h: fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST with unsigned divisorsGuenter Roeck
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).

2012-12-21exec: do not leave bprm->interp on stackKees Cook
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.
