7417fa83c1 Phonet: hook resource routing to userspace via ioctl()'s
I wish we could use something cleaner, such as bind(). But that would
not work since resource subscription is orthogonal/in addition to the
normal object ID allocated via bind(). This is similar to multicasting
which also uses ioctl()'s.

4e3d16ce5e Phonet: resource routing backend
When both destination device and object are nul, Phonet routes the
packet according to the resource field. In fact, this is the most
common pattern when sending Phonet "request" packets. In this case,
the packet is delivered to whichever endpoint (socket) has
registered the resource.

This adds a new table so that Linux processes can register their
Phonet sockets to Phonet resources, if they have adequate privileges.

(Namespace support is not implemented at the moment.)

6482f554e2 Phonet: remove dangling pipe if an endpoint is closed early
Closing a pipe endpoint is not normally allowed by the Phonet pipe,
other than as a side after-effect of removing the pipe between two
endpoints. But there is no way to prevent Linux userspace processes
from being killed or suffering from bugs, so this can still happen.
We might as well forcefully close Phonet pipe endpoints then.

The cellular modem supports only a few existing pipes at a time. So we
really should not leak them. This change instructs the modem to destroy
the pipe if either of the pipe's endpoint (Linux socket) is closed too
early.

801e147cde r8169: Handle rxfifo errors on 8168 chips
The Thinkpad X100e seems to have some odd behaviour when the display is
powered off - the onboard r8169 starts generating rxfifo overflow errors.
The root cause of this has not yet been identified and may well be a
hardware design bug on the platform, but r8169 should be more resiliant to
this. This patch enables the rxfifo interrupt on 8168 devices and removes
the MAC version check in the interrupt handler, and the machine no longer
crashes when under network load while the screen turns off.

72250d44bc i4l: kill big kernel lock
The isdn4linux driver uses the big kernel lock only
to serialize access to a few fields in its own

The easiest replacement is a driver-wide mutex.
More fine-grained locking would be more appropriate
here, but likely harder to implement.

vortex_set_wol protected with a spinlock, but nested  acpi_set_WOL acquires a mutex inside atomic context.
Ethtool operations are already serialized by RTNL mutex, so it is safe to drop the locks.

41a8a7ee4a tg3: Fix read DMA FIFO overruns on recent devices
Earlier versions of tg3 devices had a problem where the read DMA FIFO
could be overrun in certain edge conditions.  The fix was to limit the
number of rx BDs the hardware would fetch at a time.  For later devices
(5761, 5784 and later ASIC revs), there is a hardware fix that must be
enabled to fix the same problem.  This patch adds that hardware fix.

There is a gap in the ASIC revision lineage where neither fix is
applied.  This is intentional as these ASIC revisions are not afflicted
by the bug.

01f83d6984 tcp: Prevent overzealous packetization by SWS logic.
If peer uses tiny MSS (say, 75 bytes) and similarly tiny advertised
window, the SWS logic will packetize to half the MSS unnecessarily.

This causes problems with some embedded devices.

However for large MSS devices we do want to half-MSS packetize
otherwise we never get enough packets into the pipe for things
like fast retransmit and recovery to work.

Be careful also to handle the case where MSS > window, otherwise
we'll never send until the probe timer.

37efb03fbd dccp ccid-3: Simplify and consolidate tx_parse_options
This simplifies and consolidates the TX option-parsing code:

 1. The Loss Intervals option is not currently used, so dead code related to
    this option is removed. I am aware of no plans to support the option, but
    if someone wants to implement it (e.g. for inter-op tests), it is better
    to start afresh than having to also update currently unused code.

 2. The Loss Event and Receive Rate options have a lot of code in common (both
    are 32 bit, both have same length etc.), so this is consolidated.

 3. The test against GSR is not necessary, because
    - on first loading CCID3, ccid_new() zeroes out all fields in the socket;
    - ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv() treats 0 and ~0U equivalently, due to

	pinv = opt_recv->ccid3or_loss_event_rate;
	if (pinv == ~0U || pinv == 0)
		hctx->p = 0;

    - as a result, the sequence number field is removed from opt_recv.

d2c726309d dccp ccid-3: remove buggy RTT-sampling history lookup
This removes the RTT-sampling function tfrc_tx_hist_rtt(), since

 1. it suffered from complex passing of return values (the return value both
    indicated successful lookup while the value doubled as RTT sample);

 2. when for some odd reason the sample value equalled 0, this triggered a bug
    warning about "bogus Ack", due to the ambiguity of the return value;

 3. on a passive host which has not sent anything the TX history is empty and
    thus will lead to unwanted "bogus Ack" warnings such as
    ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-28197148
    ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-26641606.

The fix is to replace the implicit encoding by performing the steps manually.

Furthermore, the "bogus Ack" warning has been removed, since it can actually be
triggered due to several reasons (network reordering, old packet, (3) above),
hence it is not very useful.

20cbd3e120 dccp ccid-3: A lower bound for the inter-packet scheduling algorithm
This fixes a subtle bug in the calculation of the inter-packet gap and shows
that t_delta, as it is currently used, is not needed.

The algorithm from RFC 5348, 8.3 below continually computes a send time t_nom,
which is initialised with the current time t_now; t_gran = 1E6 / HZ specifies
the scheduling granularity, s the packet size, and X the sending rate:

  t_distance = t_nom - t_now;		// in microseconds
  t_delta    = min(t_ipi, t_gran) / 2;	// `delta' parameter in microseconds

  if (t_distance >= t_delta) {
	reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;
  } else {
  	t_ipi  = s / X;			// inter-packet interval in usec
	t_nom += t_ipi;			// compute the next send time
	send packet now;
  }

Problem:
--------
Rescheduling requires a conversion into milliseconds (sk_reset_timer()). The
highest jiffy resolution with HZ=1000 is 1 millisecond, so using a higher
granularity does not make much sense here.

As a consequence, values of t_distance < 1000 are truncated to 0. This issue
has so far been resolved by using instead

  if (t_distance >= t_delta + 1000)
	reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;

This is unnecessarily large, a lower bound is t_delta' = max(t_delta, 1000).
And it implies a further simplification:

 a) when HZ >= 500, then t_delta <= t_gran/2 = 10^6/(2*HZ) <= 1000, so that
    t_delta' = MAX(1000, t_delta) = 1000 (constant value);

 b) when HZ < 500, then t_delta = 1/2*MIN(rtt, t_ipi, t_gran) <= t_gran/2,
    so that 1000 <= t_delta' <= t_gran/2.

The maximum error of using a constant t_delta in (b) is less than half a jiffy.

Fix:
----
The patch replaces t_delta with a constant, whose value depends on CONFIG_HZ,
changing the above algorithm to:

  if (t_distance >= t_delta')
	reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;

where t_delta' = 10^6/(2*HZ) if HZ < 500, and t_delta' = 1000 otherwise.

fddd91016d phylib: fix PAL state machine restart on resume
On resume, before starting the PAL state machine, check if the
adjust_link() method is well supplied. If not, this would lead to a
NULL pointer dereference in the phy_state_machine() function.

This scenario can happen if the Ethernet driver call manually the PHY
functions instead of using the PAL state machine. The mv643xx_eth driver
is a such example.

068e8a3032 e1000e: Simplify MSI interrupt testing
The code is quite convoluted, simplify it. This also avoids calling
e1000_request_irq() without testing the value it returned, which was
bad.

ef885afbf8 net: use rcu_barrier() in rollback_registered_many
netdev_wait_allrefs() waits that all references to a device vanishes.

It currently uses a _very_ pessimistic 250 ms delay between each probe.
Some users reported that no more than 4 devices can be dismantled per
second, this is a pretty serious problem for some setups.

Most of the time, a refcount is about to be released by an RCU callback,
that is still in flight because rollback_registered_many() uses a
synchronize_rcu() call instead of rcu_barrier(). Problem is visible if
number of online cpus is one, because synchronize_rcu() is then a no op.

time to remove 50 ipip tunnels on a UP machine :

before patch : real 11.910s
after patch : real 1.250s

ab12811c89 bonding: correctly process non-linear skbs
It was recently brought to my attention that 802.3ad mode bonds would no
longer form when using some network hardware after a driver update.
After snooping around I realized that the particular hardware was using
page-based skbs and found that skb->data did not contain a valid LACPDU
as it was not stored there.  That explained the inability to form an
802.3ad-based bond.  For balance-alb mode bonds this was also an issue
as ARPs would not be properly processed.

This patch fixes the issue in my tests and should be applied to 2.6.36
and as far back as anyone cares to add it to stable.

Thanks to Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> and Jesse
Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> for the suggestions on this one.

a2c1e3dad5 mac80211: match only assigned bss in sta_info_get_bss
sta_info_get_bss() is used to match STA pointers
for VLAN/AP interfaces, but if the same station
is also added to multiple other interfaces it
will erroneously match because both pointers are
NULL, fix this by ignoring NULL pointers here.

In this case, the frame must not be reported as decrypted, otherwise

31a01645c0 ath9k: fix BSSID mask calculation
At the time the .add_interface driver op is called, the interface has not
been marked as running yet, so ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces will
not pass it to the iterator function.
Because of this, the calculated BSSID mask is wrong, which breaks multi-BSS
operation.

Additionally, the current way of comparing all addresses against each other
is pointless, as the hardware only uses the hardware MAC address and the BSSID
mask for matching the destination address, so all the address array
reallocation is completely unnecessary.

This patch simplifies the logic by setting the initial mask bytes to 0xff
and removing all bits in the iterator call that don't match the hardware MAC
address. It also calls the iterator for the vif that was passed to
add_interface()
