Commit 04f3b31bff72 ("iscsi-target: Convert iscsi_session statistics to
atomic_long_t") removed the updating of these fields in iscsi (the only
fabric driver that ever touched these counters), and the core has no way
to report or otherwise use the values. Remove the last remnants of
these counters.

Renesas R-Car development boards use KSZ8041RNLI PHY which for some reason has
ID of 0x00221537 that is not documented for KSZ8041-family PHYs and does not
match the documented ID of 0x0022151x (where 'x' is the revision). We have
to add the new #define PHY_ID_* and new ksphy_driver[] entry, almost the same
as KSZ8041 one, differing only in the 'phy_id' and 'name' fields.

Christian suffers from a bad BIOS that wrecks his i5's TSC sync. This
results in him occasionally seeing time going backwards - which
crashes the scheduler ...
Most of our time accounting can actually handle that except the most
common one; the tick time update of sched_fair.
There is a further problem with that code; previously we assumed that
because we get a tick every TICK_NSEC our time delta could never
exceed 32bits and math was simpler.
However, ever since Frederic managed to get NO_HZ_FULL merged; this is
no longer the case since now a task can run for a long time indeed
without getting a tick. It only takes about ~4.2 seconds to overflow
our u32 in nanoseconds.
This means we not only need to better deal with time going backwards;
but also means we need to be able to deal with large deltas.
This patch reworks the entire code and uses mul_u64_u32_shr() as
proposed by Andy a long while ago.
We express our virtual time scale factor in a u32 multiplier and shift
right and the 32bit mul_u64_u32_shr() implementation reduces to a
single 32x32->64 multiply if the time delta is still short (common
case).
For 64bit a 64x64->128 multiply can be used if ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128.

While hunting a preemption issue with Alexander, Ben noticed that the
currently generic PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED stuff is horribly broken for
load-store architectures.
We currently rely on the IPI to fold TIF_NEED_RESCHED into
PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED, but when this IPI lands while we already have
a load for the preempt-count but before the store, the store will erase
the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED change.
The current preempt-count only works on load-store archs because
interrupts are assumed to be completely balanced wrt their preempt_count
fiddling; the previous preempt_count load will match the preempt_count
state after the interrupt and therefore nothing gets lost.
This patch removes the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED usage from generic code and
pushes it into x86 arch code; the generic code goes back to relying on
TIF_NEED_RESCHED.
Boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on ppc64.

TIPC is currently using the field 'af_packet_priv' in struct net_device
as a handle to find the bearer instance associated to the given network
device. But, by doing so it is blocking other networking cleanups, such
as the one discussed here:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/178044/
This commit removes this usage from TIPC. Instead, we introduce a new
field, 'tipc_ptr', to the net_device structure, to serve this purpose.
When TIPC bearer is enabled, the bearer object is associated to
'tipc_ptr'. When a TIPC packet arrives in the recv_msg() upcall
from a networking device, the bearer object can now be obtained from
'tipc_ptr'. When a bearer is disabled, the bearer object is detached
from its underlying network device by setting 'tipc_ptr' to NULL.
Additionally, an RCU lock is used to protect the new pointer.
Henceforth, the existing tipc_net_lock is used in write mode to
serialize write accesses to this pointer, while the new RCU lock is
applied on the read side to ensure that the pointer is 100% valid
within its wrapped area for all readers.

Currently, sctp associations latch a sockets autoclose value to an association
at association init time, subject to capping constraints from the max_autoclose
sysctl value. This leads to an odd situation where an application may set a
socket level autoclose timeout, but sliently sctp will limit the autoclose
timeout to something less than that.
Fix this by modifying the autoclose setsockopt function to check the limit, cap
it and warn the user via syslog that the timeout is capped. This will allow
getsockopt to return valid autoclose timeout values that reflect what subsequent
associations actually use.
While were at it, also elimintate the assoc->autoclose variable, it duplicates
whats in the timeout array, which leads to multiple sources for the same
information, that may differ (as the former isn't subject to any capping). This
gives us the timeout information in a canonical place and saves some space in
the association structure as well.

unix_dgram_recvmsg() will hold the readlock of the socket until recv
is complete.
In the same time, we may try to setsockopt(SO_PEEK_OFF) which will hang until
unix_dgram_recvmsg() will complete (which can take a while) without allowing
us to break out of it, triggering a hung task spew.
Instead, allow set_peek_off to fail, this way userspace will not hang.

Change the default enumeration scheme for xhci attached non-SuperSpeed
devices from:
Reset
SetAddress [xhci address-device BSR = 0]
GetDescriptor(8)
GetDescriptor(18)
...to:
Reset
[xhci address-device BSR = 1]
GetDescriptor(64)
Reset
SetAddress [xhci address-device BSR = 0]
GetDescriptor(18)
...as some devices misbehave when encountering a SetAddress command
prior to GetDescriptor. There are known legacy devices that require
this scheme, but testing has found at least one USB3 device that fails
enumeration when presented with this ordering. For now, follow the ehci
case and enable 'new scheme' by default for non-SuperSpeed devices.
To support this enumeration scheme on xhci the AddressDevice operation
needs to be performed twice. The first instance of the command enables
the HC's device and slot context info for the device, but omits sending
the device a SetAddress command (BSR == block set address request).
Then, after GetDescriptor completes, follow up with the full
AddressDevice+SetAddress operation.
As mentioned before, this ordering of events with USB3 devices causes an
extra state transition to be exposed to xhci. Previously USB3 devices
would transition directly from 'enabled' to 'addressed' and never need
to underrun responses to 'get descriptor'. We do see the 64-byte
descriptor fetch the correct data, but the following 18-byte descriptor
read after the reset gets:
bLength = 0
bDescriptorType = 0
bcdUSB = 0
bDeviceClass = 0
bDeviceSubClass = 0
bDeviceProtocol = 0
bMaxPacketSize0 = 9
instead of:
bLength = 12
bDescriptorType = 1
bcdUSB = 300
bDeviceClass = 0
bDeviceSubClass = 0
bDeviceProtocol = 0
bMaxPacketSize0 = 9
which results in the discovery process looping until falling back to
'old scheme' enumeration.

When running a 32bit kernel the hda_intel driver is still reporting
a 64bit dma_mask if the HW supports it.
From sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:
/* allow 64bit DMA address if supported by H/W */
if ((gcap & ICH6_GCAP_64OK) && !pci_set_dma_mask(pci, DMA_BIT_MASK(64)))
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask(pci, DMA_BIT_MASK(64));
else {
pci_set_dma_mask(pci, DMA_BIT_MASK(32));
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask(pci, DMA_BIT_MASK(32));
}
which means when there is a call to dma_alloc_coherent from
snd_malloc_dev_pages a machine address bigger than 32bit can be returned.
This can be true in particular if running the 32bit kernel as a pv dom0
under the Xen Hypervisor or PAE on bare metal.
The problem is that when calling setup_bdle to program the BLE the
dma_addr_t returned from the dma_alloc_coherent is wrongly truncated
from snd_sgbuf_get_addr if running a 32bit kernel:
static inline dma_addr_t snd_sgbuf_get_addr(struct snd_dma_buffer *dmab,
size_t offset)
{
struct snd_sg_buf *sgbuf = dmab->private_data;
dma_addr_t addr = sgbuf->table[offset >> PAGE_SHIFT].addr;
addr &= PAGE_MASK;
return addr + offset % PAGE_SIZE;
}
where PAGE_MASK in a 32bit kernel is zeroing the upper 32bit af addr.
Without this patch the HW will fetch the 32bit truncated address,
which is not the one obtained from dma_alloc_coherent and will result
to a non working audio but can corrupt host memory at a random location.
The current patch apply to v3.13-rc3-74-g6c843f5

a8b14744429f ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular and bin
files") in driver-core-linus modifies sysfs_open_file() so that it
gives out different locking classes to sysfs_open_files depending on
whether the file is bin or not. Due to the massive kernfs
reorganization in driver-core-next, this naturally causes merge
conflict in fs/sysfs/file.c.
Due to the way things are split between kernfs and sysfs in
driver-core-next, the same fix can't easily be applied to
driver-core-next. This merge simply ignores the offending commit. A
following patch will implement a separate fix for the issue.

dma_request_slave_channel() simply returns NULL whenever DMA channel
lookup fails. Lookup could fail for two distinct reasons:
a) No DMA specification exists for the channel name.
This includes situations where no DMA specifications exist at all, or
other general lookup problems.
b) A DMA specification does exist, yet the driver for that channel is not
yet registered.
Case (b) should trigger deferred probe in client drivers. However, since
they have no way to differentiate the two situations, it cannot.
Implement new function dma_request_slave_channel_reason(), which performs
identically to dma_request_slave_channel(), except that it returns an
error-pointer rather than NULL, which allows callers to detect when
deferred probe should occur.
Eventually, all drivers should be converted to this new API, the old API
removed, and the new API renamed to the more desirable name. This patch
doesn't convert the existing API and all drivers in one go, since some
drivers call dma_request_slave_channel() then dma_request_channel() if
that fails. That would require either modifying dma_request_channel() in
the same way, or adding extra error-handling code to all affected
drivers, and there are close to 100 drivers using the other API, rather
than just the 15-20 or so that use dma_request_slave_channel(), which
might be tenable in a single patch.
acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_name() doesn't currently implement
deferred probe. It should, but this will be addressed later.

Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added.
Therefore the default neigh parms values they get are the ones at the
time of these operations.
Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the behaviour
of default neigh parms values in an incompatible way (see bug #8519).
This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the
same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly
set by the user since the inet device's creation.

default values.

The PHY library already reads the MII_STAT1000 and MII_LPA registers in
genphy_read_status(), so extend it to also populate the PHY device link
partner advertised features such that we can feed this back into ethtool
when asked for it in phy_ethtool_gset().

This patch introduces a PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket option, that
allows for using a similar xmit() function as in pktgen instead
of taking the dev_queue_xmit() path. This can be very useful when
PF_PACKET applications are required to be used in a similar
scenario as pktgen, but with full, flexible packet payload that
needs to be provided, for example.
On default, nothing changes in behaviour for normal PF_PACKET
TX users, so everything stays as is for applications. New users,
however, can now set PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS if needed to prevent
own packets from i) reentering packet_rcv() and ii) to directly
push the frame to the driver.
In doing so we can increase pps (here 64 byte packets) for
PF_PACKET a bit:
# CPUs -- QDISC_BYPASS -- qdisc path -- qdisc path[**]
1 CPU == 1,509,628 pps -- 1,208,708 -- 1,247,436
2 CPUs == 3,198,659 pps -- 2,536,012 -- 1,605,779
3 CPUs == 4,787,992 pps -- 3,788,740 -- 1,735,610
4 CPUs == 6,173,956 pps -- 4,907,799 -- 1,909,114
5 CPUs == 7,495,676 pps -- 5,956,499 -- 2,014,422
6 CPUs == 9,001,496 pps -- 7,145,064 -- 2,155,261
7 CPUs == 10,229,776 pps -- 8,190,596 -- 2,220,619
8 CPUs == 11,040,732 pps -- 9,188,544 -- 2,241,879
9 CPUs == 12,009,076 pps -- 10,275,936 -- 2,068,447
10 CPUs == 11,380,052 pps -- 11,265,337 -- 1,578,689
11 CPUs == 11,672,676 pps -- 11,845,344 -- 1,297,412
[...]
20 CPUs == 11,363,192 pps -- 11,014,933 -- 1,245,081
[**]: qdisc path with packet_rcv(), how probably most people
seem to use it (hopefully not anymore if not needed)
The test was done using a modified trafgen, sending a simple
static 64 bytes packet, on all CPUs. The trick in the fast
"qdisc path" case, is to avoid reentering packet_rcv() by
setting the RAW socket protocol to zero, like:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0);
Tradeoffs are documented as well in this patch, clearly, if
queues are busy, we will drop more packets, tc disciplines are
ignored, and these packets are not visible to taps anymore. For
a pktgen like scenario, we argue that this is acceptable.
The pointer to the xmit function has been placed in packet
socket structure hole between cached_dev and prot_hook that
is hot anyway as we're working on cached_dev in each send path.
Done in joint work together with Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

As we need it elsewhere, move the inline helper function of
skb_needs_linearize() over to skbuff.h include file. While
at it, also convert the return to 'bool' instead of 'int'
and add a proper kernel doc.
