git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next John W. Linville says: ==================== Yet one more pull request for wireless updates intended for 3.11... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "Here we have a few memory leak fixes related to BSS struct handling mostly from Ben, including a fix for a more theoretical problem (associating while a BSS struct times out) from myself, a compilation warning fix from Arend, mesh fixes from Thomas, tracking the beacon bitrate (Alex), a bandwidth change event fix (Ilan) and some initial work for 5/10 MHz channels from Simon." Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says: "Emmanuel removed some unneeded/unsupported module parameters and adds a Bluetooth 1x1 lookup-table for some upcoming products. From Alex I have an older patch to add low-power receive support, this depended on a mac80211 commit that only just came in with the merge from wireless-next I did. Ilan made beacon timings better, and Eytan added some debug statements for thermal throttling. I have a few cleanups, a fix for a long-standing but rare warning, and, arguably the most important patch here, the firmware API version bump for the 7260/3160 devices." Also included is a Bluetooth pull -- Gustavo says: "Here goes a set of patches to 3.11. The biggest work here is from Andre Guedes on the move of the Discovery to use the new request framework. Other than that Johan provided a bunch of fixes to the L2CAP code. The rest are just small fixes and clean ups." On top of all that, there are a variety of updates and fixes to brcmfmac, rt2x00, wil6210, ath9k, ath10k, and a few others here and there. This also includes a pull of the wireless tree, in order to prevent some merge conflicts. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-07-01net/mlx4_core: Add HW enforcement to VF link stateRony Efraim

2013-07-01net/mlx4_core: Dynamic VST to VST vlan/qos changesJack Morgenstein
Within VST mode, enable modifying the vlan and/or qos for a VF without requiring unbind/rebind. This requires firmware which supports the UPDATE_QP command. (If the command is not available, we fall back to requiring unbind/bind to activate these changes). To avoid race conditions with modify-qp on QPs that are affected by update-qp, this operation is performed on the comm_wq. If the update operation succeeds for all the necessary QPs, a vlan_unregister is performed for the abandoned vlan id.

2013-06-27netlink: fix splat in skb_clone with large messagesPablo Neira
Since (c05cdb1 netlink: allow large data transfers from user-space), netlink splats if it invokes skb_clone on large netlink skbs since: * skb_shared_info was not correctly initialized. * skb->destructor is not set in the cloned skb. This was spotted by trinity: [ 894.990671] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc9000047b001 [ 894.991034] IP: [<ffffffff81a212c4>] skb_clone+0x24/0xc0 [...] [ 894.991034] Call Trace: [ 894.991034] [<ffffffff81ad299a>] nl_fib_input+0x6a/0x240 [ 894.991034] [<ffffffff81c3b7e6>] ? _raw_read_unlock+0x26/0x40 [ 894.991034] [<ffffffff81a5f189>] netlink_unicast+0x169/0x1e0 [ 894.991034] [<ffffffff81a601e1>] netlink_sendmsg+0x251/0x3d0 Fix it by: 1) introducing a new netlink_skb_clone function that is used in nl_fib_input, that sets our special skb->destructor in the cloned skb. Moreover, handle the release of the large cloned skb head area in the destructor path. 2) not allowing large skbuffs in the netlink broadcast path. I cannot find any reasonable use of the large data transfer using netlink in that path, moreover this helps to skip extra skb_clone handling. I found two more netlink clients that are cloning the skbs, but they are not in the sendmsg path. Therefore, the sole client cloning that I found seems to be the fib frontend.

2013-06-24net: netlink: virtual tap device managementDaniel Borkmann
Similarly to the networking receive path with ptype_all taps, we add the possibility to register netdevices that are for ARPHRD_NETLINK to the netlink subsystem, so that those can be used for netlink analyzers resp. debuggers. We do not offer a direct callback function as out-of-tree modules could do crap with it. Instead, a netdevice must be registered properly and only receives a clone, managed by the netlink layer.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-14smp.h: Use local_irq_{save,restore}() in !SMP version of on_each_cpu().David Daney
Thanks to commit f91eb62f71b3 ("init: scream bloody murder if interrupts are enabled too early"), "bloody murder" is now being screamed. With a MIPS OCTEON config, we use on_each_cpu() in our irq_chip.irq_bus_sync_unlock() function. This gets called in early as a result of the time_init() call. Because the !SMP version of on_each_cpu() unconditionally enables irqs, we get: WARNING: at init/main.c:560 start_kernel+0x250/0x410() Interrupts were enabled early CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 3.10.0-rc5-Cavium-Octeon+ #801 Call Trace: show_stack+0x68/0x80 warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xb0 warn_slowpath_fmt+0x38/0x48 start_kernel+0x250/0x410 Suggested fix: Do what we already do in the SMP version of on_each_cpu(), and use local_irq_save/local_irq_restore. Because we need a flags variable, make it a static inline to avoid name space issues. [ Change from v1: Convert on_each_cpu to a static inline function, add #include <linux/irqflags.h> to avoid build breakage on some files. on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond() suffer the same problem as on_each_cpu(), but they are not causing !SMP bugs for me, so I will defer changing them to a less urgent patch. ] Signed-off-by: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2013-06-13net-rps: fixes for rps flow limitWillem de Bruijn
Caught by sparse: - __rcu: missing annotation to sd->flow_limit - __user: direct access in cpumask_scnprintf Also - add endline character when printing bitmap if room in buffer - avoid bucket overflow by reducing FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY The last item warrants some explanation. The hashtable buckets are subject to overflow if FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY is larger than or equal to bucket size, since all packets may end up in a single bucket. The current (rather arbitrary) history value of 256 happens to match the buffer size (u8). As a result, with a single flow, the first 128 packets are accepted (correct), the second 128 packets dropped (correct) and then the history[] array has filled, so that each subsequent new packet causes an increment in the bucket for new_flow plus a decrement for old_flow: a steady state. This is fine if packets are dropped, as the steady state goes away as soon as a mix of traffic reappears. But, because the 256th packet overflowed the bucket to 0: no packets are dropped. Instead of explicitly adding an overflow check, this patch changes FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY to never be able to overflow a single bucket.

2013-06-13Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu Pull RCU fixes from Paul McKenney: "I must confess that this past merge window was not RCU's best showing. This series contains three more fixes for RCU regressions: 1. A fix to __DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() that causes it to act as an interrupt from idle rather than as a task switch from idle. This change is needed due to the recent use of _rcuidle() tracepoints that can be invoked from interrupt handlers as well as from idle. Without this fix, invoking _rcuidle() tracepoints from interrupt handlers results in splats and (more seriously) confusion on RCU's part as to whether a given CPU is idle or not. This confusion can in turn result in too-short grace periods and therefore random memory corruption. 2. A fix to a subtle deadlock that could result due to RCU doing a wakeup while holding one of its rcu_node structure's locks. Although the probability of occurrence is low, it really does happen. The fix, courtesy of Steven Rostedt, uses irq_work_queue() to avoid the deadlock. 3. A fix to a silent deadlock (invisible to lockdep) due to the interaction of timeouts posted by RCU debug code enabled by CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_DELAY=y, grace-period initialization, and CPU hotplug operations. This will not occur in production kernels, but really does occur in randconfig testing.

2013-06-12mm: migration: add migrate_entry_wait_huge()Naoya Horiguchi
When we have a page fault for the address which is backed by a hugepage under migration, the kernel can't wait correctly and do busy looping on hugepage fault until the migration finishes. As a result, users who try to kick hugepage migration (via soft offlining, for example) occasionally experience long delay or soft lockup. This is because pte_offset_map_lock() can't get a correct migration entry or a correct page table lock for hugepage. This patch introduces migration_entry_wait_huge() to solve this.

2013-06-12kmsg: honor dmesg_restrict sysctl on /dev/kmsgKees Cook
The dmesg_restrict sysctl currently covers the syslog method for access dmesg, however /dev/kmsg isn't covered by the same protections. Most people haven't noticed because util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to using the syslog method for access in older versions. With util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to reading directly from /dev/kmsg. To fix /dev/kmsg, let's compare the existing interfaces and what they allow: - /proc/kmsg allows: - open (SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN) if CAP_SYSLOG since it uses a destructive single-reader interface (SYSLOG_ACTION_READ). - everything, after an open. - syslog syscall allows: - anything, if CAP_SYSLOG. - SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL and SYSLOG_ACTION_SIZE_BUFFER, if dmesg_restrict==0. - nothing else (EPERM). The use-cases were: - dmesg(1) needs to do non-destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALLs. - sysklog(1) needs to open /proc/kmsg, drop privs, and still issue the destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READs. AIUI, dmesg(1) is moving to /dev/kmsg, and systemd-journald doesn't clear the ring buffer. Based on the comments in devkmsg_llseek, it sounds like actions besides reading aren't going to be supported by /dev/kmsg (i.e. SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), so we have a strict subset of the non-destructive syslog syscall actions. To this end, move the check as Josh had done, but also rename the constants to reflect their new uses (SYSLOG_FROM_CALL becomes SYSLOG_FROM_READER, and SYSLOG_FROM_FILE becomes SYSLOG_FROM_PROC). SYSLOG_FROM_READER allows non-destructive actions, and SYSLOG_FROM_PROC allows destructive actions after a capabilities-constrained SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN check. - /dev/kmsg allows: - open if CAP_SYSLOG or dmesg_restrict==0 - reading/polling, after open Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903192 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use pr_warn_once()] Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reported-by: Christian Kujau <lists@nerdbynature.de> Tested-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@redhat.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

One big highlight is the cw1200 driver the ST-E CW1100 & CW1200 WLAN chipsets. This one has been lingering for a while, lacking some review comments. Once started getting pulled into linux-next, it got a bit more attention and a number of improvements were made over the initial cut. No doubt there will be more changes ahead, but I think it is looking alright at this point. Along with that, there is the usual flurry of updates to the mac80211 core and the iwlwifi, mwifiex, ath9k, rt2x00, wil6210, and other drivers. A few of the highlights are some rt2x00 refactoring/cleanup by Gabor Juhos, some rt2800 hardware support enhancements by Stanislaw Gruszka, some iwlwifi power management updates from Alexander Bondar, some enhanced bcma SPROM support from Rafał Miłecki, and a variety of other things here and there. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-06-12igmp: hash a hash table to speedup ip_check_mc_rcu()Eric Dumazet
After IP route cache removal, multicast applications using a lot of multicast addresses hit a O(N) behavior in ip_check_mc_rcu() Add a per in_device hash table to get faster lookup. This hash table is created only if the number of items in mc_list is above 4.

2013-06-11netlink: Add compare function for netlink_tableGao feng
As we know, netlink sockets are private resource of net namespace, they can communicate with each other only when they in the same net namespace. this works well until we try to add namespace support for other subsystems which use netlink. Don't like ipv4 and route table.., it is not suited to make these subsytems belong to net namespace, Such as audit and crypto subsystems,they are more suitable to user namespace. So we must have the ability to make the netlink sockets in same user namespace can communicate with each other. This patch adds a new function pointer "compare" for netlink_table, we can decide if the netlink sockets can communicate with each other through this netlink_table self-defined compare function. The behavior isn't changed if we don't provide the compare function for netlink_table. Signed-off-by: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Serge E.

2013-06-10net: add low latency socket pollEliezer Tamir
Adds an ndo_ll_poll method and the code that supports it. This method can be used by low latency applications to busy-poll Ethernet device queues directly from the socket code. sysctl_net_ll_poll controls how many microseconds to poll. Default is zero (disabled). Individual protocol support will be added by subsequent patches.

2013-06-10trace: Allow idle-safe tracepoints to be called from irqPaul E. McKenney
__DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() currently creates an _rcuidle() tracepoint which may safely be invoked from what RCU considers to be an idle CPU. However, these _rcuidle() tracepoints may -not- be invoked from the handler of an irq taken from idle, because rcu_idle_enter() zeroes RCU's nesting-level counter, so that the rcu_irq_exit() returning to idle will trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE(). This commit therefore substitutes rcu_irq_enter() for rcu_idle_exit() and rcu_irq_exit() for rcu_idle_enter() in order to make the _rcuidle() tracepoints usable from irq handlers as well as from process context.

2013-06-07macvtap: add TUNSETQUEUE ioctlJason Wang
This patch adds TUNSETQUEUE ioctl to let userspace can temporarily disable or enable a queue of macvtap. This is used to be compatible at API layer of tuntap to simplify the userspace to manage the queues. This is done through introducing a linked list to track all taps while using vlan->taps array to only track active taps. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This contains 4 fixes. The first two fix the case where full RCU debugging is enabled, enabling function tracing causes a live lock of the system. This is due to the added debug checks in rcu_dereference_raw() that is used by the function tracer. These checks are also traced by the function tracer as well as cause enough overhead to the function tracer to slow down the system enough that the time to finish an interrupt can take longer than when the next interrupt is triggered, causing a live lock from the timer interrupt. Talking this over with Paul McKenney, we came up with a fix that adds a new rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() that does not perform these added checks, and let the function tracer use that. The third commit fixes a failed compile when branch tracing is enabled, due to the conversion of the trace_test_buffer() selftest that the branch trace wasn't converted for. The forth patch fixes a bug caught by the RCU lockdep code where a rcu_read_lock() is performed when rcu is disabled (either going to or from idle, or user space). This happened on the irqsoff tracer as it calls task_uid(). The fix here was to use current_uid() when possible that doesn't use rcu locking. Which luckily, is always used when irqsoff calls this code." * tag 'trace-fixes-v3.10-rc3-v3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Use current_uid() for critical time tracing tracing: Fix bad parameter passed in branch selftest ftrace: Use the rcu _notrace variants for rcu_dereference_raw() and friends rcu: Add _notrace variation of rcu_dereference_raw() and hlist_for_each_entry_rcu()
