git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-05-02 Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.16 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "In this round we have a large number of small features and improvements from people too numerous to list here. The only really bit thing is Michał and Luca's CSA work (including changing how interface combination verification is done)." For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "Here goes some patches for the -next release. There is nothing really special for this pull request, just a bunch of refactors, fixes and clean ups." For the ath10k/ath6kl bits, Kalle says: "For ath6kl Kalle fixed a bunch of checkpatch warnings. In ath10k we had more changes, major ones being: * fix memory allocation failures after a firmware crash (Michal) * some rework of DFS configuration to enable it correctly in all cases (Michal) * add a new firmware crash option to make it possible to crash 10.1 firmware for testing purposes (Marek P) * fix RTS/CTS protection in certain cases (Marek K) * fix wrong RSSI and rate reporting in some cases (Janusz) * fix firmware stats reporting (Chun, Ben & Bartosz)" For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have here a bunch of unrelated things. I disabled support for -7.ucode which means that I can removed a lot of code. Eliad has a brand new feature: we reduce the Tx power when the link allows - this reduces our power consumption. The regular changes in power and scan area. One interesting thing though is the patches from Johannes, we have now GRO which allows to increase our throughput in TCP Rx. The main advantage is that it reduces the number of TCP Acks - these TCP Acks are completely useless when we are using A-MPDU since the first packet of the A-MPDU generates a TCP Ack which is made obsolete by the next packets." Along with that, there are a variety of updates to b43, mwifiex, rtl8180 and wil6210 drivers and a handful of other updates here and there. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

cpsw_cpts_rft_clk has got the choice of 3 clocksources -dpll_core_m4_ck -dpll_core_m5_ck -dpll_disp_m2_ck By default dpll_core_m4_ck is selected, witn this as clock source the CPTS doesnot work properly. It gives clockcheck errors while running PTP. clockcheck: clock jumped backward or running slower than expected! By selecting dpll_core_m5_ck as the clocksource fixes this issue.

2014-05-05unregister_netdevice : move RTM_DELLINK to until after ndo_uninitRoopa Prabhu
This patch fixes ordering of rtnl notifications during unregister_netdevice by moving RTM_DELLINK notification to until after ndo_uninit. The problem was seen with unregistering bond netdevices. bond ndo_uninit callback generates a few RTM_NEWLINK notifications for NETDEV_CHANGEADDR and NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE. This is seen mostly when the bond is deleted with slaves still enslaved to the bond. During unregister netdevice (rollback_registered_many to be specific) bond ndo_uninit is called after RTM_DELLINK notification goes out. This results in userspace seeing RTM_DELLINK followed by a couple of RTM_NEWLINK's. In userspace problem was seen with libnl. libnl cache deletes the bond when it sees RTM_DELLINK and re-adds the bond with the following RTM_NEWLINK. Resulting in a stale bond entry in libnl cache when the kernel has already deleted the bond. This patch has been tested for bond, bridges and vlan devices.

This contains only some minor misc cleanpus. We can spare us the extra variable declaration in __skb_get_pay_offset(), the cast in __get_random_u32() is rather unnecessary and in __sk_migrate_realloc() we can remove the memcpy() and do a direct assignment of the structs.

2014-05-04net: filter: make register naming more comprehensibleDaniel Borkmann
The current code is a bit hard to parse on which registers can be used, how they are mapped and all play together. It makes much more sense to define this a bit more clearly so that the code is a bit more intuitive. This patch cleans this up, and makes naming a bit more consistent among the code. This also allows for moving some of the defines into the header file. Clearing of A and X registers in __sk_run_filter() do not get a particular register name assigned as they have not an 'official' function, but rather just result from the concrete initial mapping of old BPF programs. Since for BPF helper functions for BPF_CALL we already use small letters, so be consistent here as well. No functional changes.

2014-05-04net: filter: simplify label names from jump-tableDaniel Borkmann
This patch simplifies label naming for the BPF jump-table. When we define labels via DL(), we just concatenate/textify the combination of instruction opcode which consists of the class, subclass, word size, target register and so on. Each time we leave BPF_ prefix intact, so that e.g. the preprocessor generates a label BPF_ALU_BPF_ADD_BPF_X for DL(BPF_ALU, BPF_ADD, BPF_X) whereas a label name of ALU_ADD_X is much more easy to grasp.

2014-05-02tcp: fix cwnd limited checking to improve congestion controlEric Dumazet
Yuchung discovered tcp_is_cwnd_limited() was returning false in slow start phase even if the application filled the socket write queue. All congestion modules take into account tcp_is_cwnd_limited() before increasing cwnd, so this behavior limits slow start from probing the bandwidth at full speed. The problem is that even if write queue is full (aka we are _not_ application limited), cwnd can be under utilized if TSO should auto defer or TCP Small queues decided to hold packets. So the in_flight can be kept to smaller value, and we can get to the point tcp_is_cwnd_limited() returns false. With TCP Small Queues and FQ/pacing, this issue is more visible. We fix this by having tcp_cwnd_validate(), which is supposed to track such things, take into account unsent_segs, the number of segs that we are not sending at the moment due to TSO or TSQ, but intend to send real soon. Then when we are cwnd-limited, remember this fact while we are processing the window of ACKs that comes back. For example, suppose we have a brand new connection with cwnd=10; we are in slow start, and we send a flight of 9 packets. By the time we have received ACKs for all 9 packets we want our cwnd to be 18. We implement this by setting tp->lsnd_pending to 9, and considering ourselves to be cwnd-limited while cwnd is less than twice tp->lsnd_pending (2*9 -> 18). This makes tcp_is_cwnd_limited() more understandable, by removing the GSO/TSO kludge, that tried to work around the issue. Note the in_flight parameter can be removed in a followup cleanup patch.

2014-04-30hyperv: Enable sendbuf mechanism on the send pathKY Srinivasan
We send packets using a copy-free mechanism (this is the Guest to Host transport via VMBUS). While this is obviously optimal for large packets, it may not be optimal for small packets. Hyper-V host supports a second mechanism for sending packets that is "copy based". We implement that mechanism in this patch. In this version of the patch I have addressed a comment from David Miller. With this patch (and all of the other offload and VRSS patches), we are now able to almost saturate a 10G interface between Linux VMs on Hyper-V on different hosts - close to 9 Gbps as measured via iperf.

2014-04-30virtio-net: Set needed_headroom for virtio-net when VIRTIO_F_ANY_LAYOUT is trueZhangjie \(HZ\)
This is a small supplement for commit e7428e95a06fb516fac1308bd0e176e27c0b9287 ("virtio-net: put virtio-net header inline with data"). TCP packages have enough room to put virtio-net header in, but UDP packages do not. By setting dev->needed_headroom for virtio-net device, UDP packages could have enough room. For UDP packages, sk_buff is alloced in fun __ip_append_data. The size is "alloclen + hh_len + 15", and "hh_len = LL_RESERVED_SPACE(rt-dst.dev);". The Macro is defined as follows: #define LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) \ ((((dev)->hard_header_len+(dev)->needed_headroom)\ &~(HH_DATA_MOD - 1)) + HH_DATA_MOD) By default, for UDP packages, after skb is allocated, only 16 bytes reserved. And 2 bytes remained after mac header is set. That is not enough to put virtio-net header in. If we set dev->needed_headroom to 12 or 10 (according to mergeable_rx_bufs is on or off ), more room can be reserved. Then there is enough room for UDP packages to put the header in. test result list as below: guest and host: suse11sp3, netperf, intel 2.4GHz +-------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ | | old | new | +-------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ | UDP | Gbit/s | pps | Gbit/s | pps | | 64 | 0.57 | 692232 | 0.61 | 742420 | | 256 | 1.60 | 686860 | 1.71 | 733331 | | 512 | 2.92 | 674576 | 3.07 | 710446 | | 1024 | 4.99 | 598977 | 5.17 | 620821 | | 1460 | 5.68 | 483757 | 7.16 | 610519 | | 4096 | 6.98 | 637468 | 7.21 | 658471 | +-------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ Signed-off-by: Zhang Jie <zhangjie14@huawei.com> Acked-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Jacob provides a i40e patch to remove ptp_tx_work() because it conflicts with the interrupt-based handler and will cause spurious warning messages to be displayed in the kernel log. Since the hardware can properly trigger an interrupt, we do not need to poll for an available timestamp in a work queue any more. Greg provides two patches for i40e, first to retain the MAC filter list when changing a port VLAN. Second fixes an issue where the function to set the VF MAC address was not taking the port VLAN filter into account when setting/clearing/resetting the VF's host administered MAC address. Mitch provides three patches for i40evf, first adds support for getting and setting RSS hashing options, RSS LUT entries, and getting the number of device channels from ethtool. Fixes a panic that woudl occur in the VF if the PF driver failed or was removed from the host kernel. Shannon adds driver version string to the driver version command so that can be passed down through the firmware to low-level NC-SI functions. Neerav provides several patches, first redistributes queue vectors after DCB reconfiguration because the total number of queues that are configured for a VSI may change based on a change in the total number of TCs enabled as a result of a change in the DCB configuration based on DCBX. Second, allows the driver probe to continue when querying DCB config fails. Lastly, provides changes to retrieve and store missing link config information that was not being cached in the struct i40e_link_status. Kevin provides a couple of patches, first to change a int variable type to u16 to avoid a typecheck failure. Second to update a function parameters to remove an argument which is no longer used. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-04-28tipc: move the delivery of named messages out of nametbl lockYing Xue
Commit a89778d8baf19cd7e728d81121a294a06cedaad1 ("tipc: add support for link state subscriptions") introduced below possible deadlock scenario: CPU0 CPU1 T0: tipc_publish() link_timeout() T1: tipc_nametbl_publish() [grab node lock]* T2: [grab nametbl write lock]* link_state_event() T3: named_cluster_distribute() link_activate() T4: [grab node lock]* tipc_node_link_up() T5: tipc_nametbl_publish() T6: [grab nametble write lock]* The opposite order of holding nametbl write lock and node lock on above two different paths may result in a deadlock. If we move the the delivery of named messages via link out of name nametbl lock, the reverse order of holding locks will be eliminated, as a result, the deadlock will be killed as well.

2014-04-28tipc: fix out of bounds indexingErik Hugne
Commit 78acb1f9b898e85fa2c1e28e700b54b66b288e8d ("tipc: add ioctl to fetch link names") introduced a buffer overflow bug where specially crafted ioctl requests could cause out-of-bounds indexing of the node->links array. This was caused by an incorrect check vs MAX_BEARERS, and the static code checker complaint is: net/tipc/node.c:459 tipc_node_get_linkname() error: buffer overflow 'node->links' 2 <= 2 Signed-off-by: Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@ericsson.com> Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
