2013-09-20arm64: documentation: tighten up tagged pointer documentationWill Deacon
Commit d50240a5f6ce ("arm64: mm: permit use of tagged pointers at EL0") added support for tagged pointers in userspace, but the corresponding update to Documentation/ contained some imprecise statements. This patch fixes up some minor ambiguities in the text, hopefully making it more clear about exactly what the kernel expects from user virtual addresses.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) If the local_df boolean is set on an SKB we have to allocate a unique ID even if IP_DF is set in the ipv4 headers, from Ansis Atteka. 2) Some fixups for the new chipset support that went into the sfc driver, from Ben Hutchings. 3) Because SCTP bypasses a good chunk of, and actually duplicates, the logic of the ipv6 output path, some IPSEC things don't get done properly. Integrate SCTP better into the ipv6 output path so that these problems are fixed and such issues don't get missed in the future either. From Daniel Borkmann. 4) Fix skge regressions added by the DMA mapping error return checking added in v3.10, from Mikulas Patocka. 5) Kill some more IRQF_DISABLED references, from Michael Opdenacker. 6) Fix races and deadlocks in the bridging code, from Hong Zhiguo. 7) Fix error handling in tun_set_iff(), in particular don't leak resources. From Jason Wang. 8) Prevent format-string injection into xen-netback driver, from Kees Cook. 9) Fix regression added to netpoll ARP packet handling, in particular check for the right ETH_P_ARP protocol code. From Sonic Zhang. 10) Try to deal with AMD IOMMU errors when using r8169 chips, from Francois Romieu. 11) Cure freezes due to recent changes in the rt2x00 wireless driver, from Stanislaw Gruszka. 12) Don't do SPI transfers (which can sleep) in interrupt context in cw1200 driver, from Solomon Peachy. 13) Fix LEDs handling bug in 5720 tg3 chips already handled for 5719. From Nithin Sujir. 14) Make xen_netbk_count_skb_slots() count the actual number of slots that will be used, taking into consideration packing and other issues that the transmit path will run into. From David Vrabel. 15) Use the correct maximum age when calculating the bridge message_age_timer, from Chris Healy. 16) Get rid of memory leaks in mcs7780 IRDA driver, from Alexey Khoroshilov. 17) Netfilter conntrack extensions were converted to RCU but are not always freed properly using kfree_rcu(). Fix from Michal Kubecek. 18) VF reset recovery not being done correctly in qlcnic driver, from Manish Chopra. 19) Fix inverted test in ATM nicstar driver, from Andy Shevchenko. 20) Missing workqueue destroy in cxgb4 error handling, from Wei Yang. 21) Internal switch not initialized properly in bgmac driver, from Rafał Miłecki. 22) Netlink messages report wrong local and remote addresses in IPv6 tunneling, from Ding Zhi. 23) ICMP redirects should not generate socket errors in DCCP and SCTP. We're still working out how this should be handled for RAW and UDP sockets. From Daniel Borkmann and Duan Jiong. 24) We've had several bugs wherein the network namespace's loopback device gets accessed after it is free'd, NULL it out so that we can catch these problems more readily. From Eric W Biederman. 25) Fix regression in TCP RTO calculations, from Neal Cardwell. 26) Fix too early free of xen-netback network device when VIFs still exist.

2013-09-15bonding: Make alb learning packet interval configurableNeil Horman
running bonding in ALB mode requires that learning packets be sent periodically, so that the switch knows where to send responding traffic. However, depending on switch configuration, there may not be any need to send traffic at the default rate of 3 packets per second, which represents little more than wasted data. Allow the ALB learning packet interval to be made configurable via sysfs Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Acked-by: Acked-by: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@redhat.com> CC: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> CC: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> CC: "David S.

Add a new %P variable to be used in core_pattern. This variable contains the global PID (PID in the init namespace) as %p contains the PID in the current namespace which isn't always what we want. The main use for this is to make it easier to handle crashes that happened within a container. With that new variables it's possible to have the crashes dumped into the container or forwarded to the host with the right PID (from the host's point of view).

Palmas series device like TPS65913, TPS80036 supports the backup battery for powering the RTC when no other energy source is available. The backup battery is optional, connected to the VBACKUP pin, and can be nonrechargeable or rechargeable. The rechargeable battery can be charged from the system supply using the backup battery charger. Add support for enabling charging of this backup battery. Also add the DT binding document and the new properties to have this support.

2013-09-11mm: track vma changes with VM_SOFTDIRTY bitCyrill Gorcunov
Pavel reported that in case if vma area get unmapped and then mapped (or expanded) in-place, the soft dirty tracker won't be able to recognize this situation since it works on pte level and ptes are get zapped on unmap, loosing soft dirty bit of course. So to resolve this situation we need to track actions on vma level, there VM_SOFTDIRTY flag comes in. When new vma area created (or old expanded) we set this bit, and keep it here until application calls for clearing soft dirty bit. Thus when user space application track memory changes now it can detect if vma area is renewed.

Pull NFS client updates from Trond Myklebust: "Highlights include: - Fix NFSv4 recovery so that it doesn't recover lost locks in cases such as lease loss due to a network partition, where doing so may result in data corruption. Add a kernel parameter to control choice of legacy behaviour or not. - Performance improvements when 2 processes are writing to the same file. - Flush data to disk when an RPCSEC_GSS session timeout is imminent. - Implement NFSv4.1 SP4_MACH_CRED state protection to prevent other NFS clients from being able to manipulate our lease and file locking state. - Allow sharing of RPCSEC_GSS caches between different rpc clients. - Fix the broken NFSv4 security auto-negotiation between client and server. - Fix rmdir() to wait for outstanding sillyrename unlinks to complete - Add a tracepoint framework for debugging NFSv4 state recovery issues. - Add tracing to the generic NFS layer. - Add tracing for the SUNRPC socket connection state. - Clean up the rpc_pipefs mount/umount event management. - Merge more patches from Chuck in preparation for NFSv4 migration support" * tag 'nfs-for-3.12-1' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs: (107 commits) NFSv4: use mach cred for SECINFO_NO_NAME w/ integrity NFS: nfs_compare_super shouldn't check the auth flavour unless 'sec=' was set NFSv4: Allow security autonegotiation for submounts NFSv4: Disallow security negotiation for lookups when 'sec=' is specified NFSv4: Fix security auto-negotiation NFS: Clean up nfs_parse_security_flavors() NFS: Clean up the auth flavour array mess NFSv4.1 Use MDS auth flavor for data server connection NFS: Don't check lock owner compatability unless file is locked (part 2) NFS: Don't check lock owner compatibility in writes unless file is locked nfs4: Map NFS4ERR_WRONG_CRED to EPERM nfs4.1: Add SP4_MACH_CRED write and commit support nfs4.1: Add SP4_MACH_CRED stateid support nfs4.1: Add SP4_MACH_CRED secinfo support nfs4.1: Add SP4_MACH_CRED cleanup support nfs4.1: Add state protection handler nfs4.1: Minimal SP4_MACH_CRED implementation SUNRPC: Replace pointer values with task->tk_pid and rpc_clnt->cl_clid SUNRPC: Add an identifier for struct rpc_clnt SUNRPC: Ensure rpc_task->tk_pid is available for tracepoints ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client Pull ceph updates from Sage Weil: "This includes both the first pile of Ceph patches (which I sent to torvalds@vger, sigh) and a few new patches that add support for fscache for Ceph. That includes a few fscache core fixes that David Howells asked go through the Ceph tree. (Thanks go to Milosz Tanski for putting this feature together) This first batch of patches (included here) had (has) several important RBD bug fixes, hole punch support, several different cleanups in the page cache interactions, improvements in the truncate code (new truncate mutex to avoid shenanigans with i_mutex), and a series of fixes in the synchronous striping read/write code. On top of that is a random collection of small fixes all across the tree (error code checks and error path cleanup, obsolete wq flags, etc)" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client: (43 commits) ceph: use d_invalidate() to invalidate aliases ceph: remove ceph_lookup_inode() ceph: trivial buildbot warnings fix ceph: Do not do invalidate if the filesystem is mounted nofsc ceph: page still marked private_2 ceph: ceph_readpage_to_fscache didn't check if marked ceph: clean PgPrivate2 on returning from readpages ceph: use fscache as a local presisent cache fscache: Netfs function for cleanup post readpages FS-Cache: Fix heading in documentation CacheFiles: Implement interface to check cache consistency FS-Cache: Add interface to check consistency of a cached object rbd: fix null dereference in dout rbd: fix buffer size for writes to images with snapshots libceph: use pg_num_mask instead of pgp_num_mask for pg.seed calc rbd: fix I/O error propagation for reads ceph: use vfs __set_page_dirty_nobuffers interface instead of doing it inside filesystem ceph: allow sync_read/write return partial successed size of read/write. ceph: fix bugs about handling short-read for sync read mode. ceph: remove useless variable revoked_rdcache ...
