Even though platform_get_irq returns error, 'host->irq'
always has an unsigned value. Less-than-zero comparison
of an unsigned value is never true. Type of 'unsigned int'

ocp2scp was not having pdata support which makes *musb* fail for non-dt
boot in OMAP platform. The pdata will have information about the devices
that is connected to ocp2scp. ocp2scp driver will now make use of this

Add Ethertype 0x4305 (not an officially registered id).
This Ethertype is used by every frame generated by B.A.T.M.A.N.-Advanced. Its
definition is currently batman-adv local only and since it is not officially

Lots of points in the sctp_cmd_interpreter function treat the sctp_cmd_t arg as
a void pointer, even though they are written as various other types. Theres no
need for this as doing so just leads to possible type-punning issues that could
cause crashes, and if we remain type-consistent we can actually just remove the
void * member of the union entirely.
Change Notes:
v2)
* Dropped chunk that modified SCTP_NULL to create a marker pattern
should anyone try to use a SCTP_NULL() assigned sctp_arg_t, Assigning
to .zero provides the same effect and should be faster, per Vlad Y.
v3)
* Reverted part of V2, opting to use memset instead of .zero, so that
the entire union is initalized thus avoiding the i164 speculative load
problems previously encountered, per Dave M.. Also rewrote
SCTP_[NO]FORCE so as to use common infrastructure a little more

Some years ago, the ktime_t helper functions ktime_now() and ktime_lt()
have been introduced. Instead of defining them inside pktgen.c, they
should either use ktime_t library functions or, if not available, they
should be defined in ktime.h, so that also others can benefit from them.
ktime_compare() is introduced with a similar notion as in timespec_compare().

For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility,
we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers
while no SYNACK is sent.
SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for
which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent
so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into
accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless
retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost)
TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary
retransmits.
Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields :
num_retrans : number of retransmit
num_timeout : number of timeouts
num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout,
regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to
compute the exponential timeout.
Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans
only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded.
Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans
when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN.
Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits.
Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS
only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

Orphaning frags for zero copy skbs needs to allocate data in atomic
context so is has a chance to fail. If it does we currently discard
the skb which is safe, but we don't report anything to the caller,
so it can not recover by e.g. disabling zero copy.

userspace can query the original ipv4 destination address of a REDIRECTed
connection via
getsockopt(m_sock, SOL_IP, SO_ORIGINAL_DST, &m_server_addr, &addrsize)
but for ipv6 no such option existed.
This adds getsockopt(..., IPPROTO_IPV6, IP6T_SO_ORIGINAL_DST, ...).
Without this, userspace needs to parse /proc or use ctnetlink, which
appears to be overkill.
This uses option number 80 for IP6T_SO_ORIGINAL_DST, which is spare,
to use the same number we use in the IPv4 socket option SO_ORIGINAL_DST.

This patch removes the timecompare code from the kernel. The top five
reasons to do this are:
1. There are no more users of this code.
2. The original idea was a bit weak.
3. The original author has disappeared.
4. The code was not general purpose but tuned to a particular hardware,
5. There are better ways to accomplish clock synchronization.

This patch adds an ioctl for PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) devices that allows
user space to measure the time offset between the PHC and the system
clock. Rather than hard coding any kind of estimation algorithm into the

an array of raw clock readings. In that way, the user space clock servo
may be adapted to new and different hardware clocks.

The SO_ATTACH_FILTER option is set only. I propose to add the get
ability by using SO_ATTACH_FILTER in getsockopt. To be less
irritating to eyes the SO_GET_FILTER alias to it is declared. This
ability is required by checkpoint-restore project to be able to
save full state of a socket.
There are two issues with getting filter back.
First, kernel modifies the sock_filter->code on filter load, thus in
order to return the filter element back to user we have to decode it
into user-visible constants. Fortunately the modification in question
is interconvertible.
Second, the BPF_S_ALU_DIV_K code modifies the command argument k to
speed up the run-time division by doing kernel_k = reciprocal(user_k).
Bad news is that different user_k may result in same kernel_k, so we
can't get the original user_k back. Good news is that we don't have
to do it. What we need to is calculate a user2_k so, that
reciprocal(user2_k) == reciprocal(user_k) == kernel_k
i.e. if it's re-loaded back the compiled again value will be exactly
the same as it was. That said, the user2_k can be calculated like this
user2_k = reciprocal(kernel_k)
with an exception, that if kernel_k == 0, then user2_k == 1.
The optlen argument is treated like this -- when zero, kernel returns
the amount of sock_fprog elements in filter, otherwise it should be
large enough for the sock_fprog array.

the pieces of io data can be collected and write them to the guest memory
or MMIO together
Unfortunately, kvm splits the mmio access into 8 bytes and store them to
vcpu->mmio_fragments. If the guest uses "rep ins" to move large data, it
will cause vcpu->mmio_fragments overflow

Network device drivers can communicate a Toeplitz hash in skb->rxhash,
but devices differ in their hashing capabilities. All compute a 5-tuple
hash for TCP over IPv4, but for other connection-oriented protocols,
they may compute only a 3-tuple. This breaks RPS load balancing, e.g.,
for TCP over IPv6 flows. Additionally, for GRE and other tunnels,
the kernel computes a 5-tuple hash over the inner packet if possible,
but devices do not.
This patch recomputes the rxhash in software in all cases where it
cannot be certain that a 5-tuple was computed. Device drivers can avoid
recomputation by setting the skb->l4_rxhash flag.
Recomputing adds cycles to each packet when RPS is enabled or the
packet arrives over a tunnel. A comparison of 200x TCP_STREAM between
two servers running unmodified netnext with rxhash computation
in hardware vs software (using ethtool -K eth0 rxhash [on|off]) shows
how much time is spent in __skb_get_rxhash in this worst case:
0.03% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash
0.03% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash
0.05% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash
With 200x TCP_RR it increases to
0.10% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash
0.10% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash
0.10% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash
I considered having the patch explicitly skips recomputation when it knows
that it will not improve the hash (TCP over IPv4), but that conditional
complicates code without saving many cycles in practice, because it has
to take place after flow dissector.

This adds support for the net device ops to manage the embedded
hardware bridge on ixgbe devices. With this patch the bridge
mode can be toggled between VEB and VEPA to support stacking
macvlan devices or using the embedded switch without any SW
component in 802.1Qbg/br environments.
Additionally, this adds source address pruning to the ixgbevf
driver to prune any frames sent back from a reflective relay on
the switch. This is required because the existing hardware does
not support this. Without it frames get pushed into the stack
with its own src mac which is invalid per 802.1Qbg VEPA
definition.

Hardware switches may support enabling and disabling the
loopback switch which puts the device in a VEPA mode defined
in the IEEE 802.1Qbg specification. In this mode frames are
not switched in the hardware but sent directly to the switch.
SR-IOV capable NICs will likely support this mode I am
aware of at least two such devices. Also I am told (but don't
have any of this hardware available) that there are devices
that only support VEPA modes. In these cases it is important
at a minimum to be able to query these attributes.
This patch adds an additional IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute that can be
set and dumped via the PF_BRIDGE:{SET|GET}LINK operations. Also
anticipating bridge attributes that may be common for both embedded
bridges and software bridges this adds a flags attribute
IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS currently used to determine if the command or event
is being generated to/from an embedded bridge or software bridge.
Finally, the event generation is pulled out of the bridge module and
into rtnetlink proper.
For example using the macvlan driver in VEPA mode on top of
an embedded switch requires putting the embedded switch into
a VEPA mode to get the expected results.
-------- --------
| VEPA | | VEPA | <-- macvlan vepa edge relays
-------- --------
| |
| |
------------------
| VEPA | <-- embedded switch in NIC
------------------
|
|
-------------------
| external switch | <-- shiny new physical
------------------- switch with VEPA support
A packet sent from the macvlan VEPA at the top could be
loopbacked on the embedded switch and never seen by the
external switch. So in order for this to work the embedded
switch needs to be set in the VEPA state via the above
described commands.
By making these attributes nested in IFLA_AF_SPEC we allow
future extensions to be made as needed.

As Mukesh explained it, the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_ALL allows the
hypervisor to do a TLB flush on all active vCPUs. If instead
we were using the generic one (which ends up being xen_flush_tlb)
we end up making the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_LOCAL hypercall. But
before we make that hypercall the kernel will IPI all of the
vCPUs (even those that were asleep from the hypervisor
perspective). The end result is that we needlessly wake them
up and do a TLB flush when we can just let the hypervisor
do it correctly.
This patch gives around 50% speed improvement when migrating
idle guest's from one host to another.

For more strict protection for wild disconnections, a refcount is
introduced to the card instance, and let it up/down when an object is
referred via snd_lookup_*() in the open ops.
The free-after-last-close check is also changed to check this refcount
instead of the empty list, too.

In SR-IOV mode the PF driver acts as the uplink port and is
used to send control packets e.g. lldpad, stp, etc.
eth0.1 eth0.2 eth0
VF VF PF
| | | <-- stand-in for uplink
| | |
--------------------------
| Embedded Switch |
--------------------------
|
MAC <-- uplink
But the embedded switch is setup to forward multicast addresses
to all interfaces both VFs and PF and onto the physical link.
This results in reserved MAC addresses used by control protocols
to be forwarded over the switch onto the VF.
In the LLDP case the PF sends an LLDPDU and it is currently
being forwarded to all the VFs who then see the PF as a peer.
This is incorrect.
This patch adds the multicast addresses to the RAR table in the
hardware to prevent this behavior.

This is the first NFC pull request for 3.8
With this one we have:
- pn544 p2p support.
- pn544 physical and HCI layers separation. We are getting the pn544 driver
ready to support non i2c physical layers.
- LLCP SNL (Service Name Lookup). This is the NFC p2p service discovery
protocol.
- LLCP datagram sockets (connection less) support.
- 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
pn544 code.

NFC_CMD_LLC_GET_PARAMS: request LTO, RW, and MIUX parameters for a device
NFC_CMD_LLC_SET_PARAMS: set one or more of LTO, RW, and MIUX parameters for
a device. LTO must be set before the link is up otherwise -EINPROGRESS is
returned. RW and MIUX can be set at anytime and will be passed in subsequent
CONNECT and CC messages. If one of the passed parameters is wrong none is
set and -EINVAL is returned.

A new type is added to allow userland to monitor protocol configuration, like
IPv4 or IPv6.
For example, monitoring the state of the forwarding status of an interface of
the system.
