Dropping packets from aggregation sessions is usually not a good idea, as
it might upset the synchronization of the BlockAck receive window of the
remote node. The use of the retry_tx parameter to reset/tx-drain functions
also seemed a bit arbitrary.
This patch removes this parameter altogether and ensures that pending tx
frames are not dropped for no good reason.

Since rt2800 hardware isn't capable of reporting the TX status of
BlockAckReq frames implement the TX status handling of BARs in
rt2x00lib. We keep track of all BARs that are send out and try to
match incoming BAs to the appropriate BARs. This allows us to report a
more or less accurate TX status for BAR frames which in turn improves
BA session stability.
This is loosley based on Christian Lamparter's patch for carl9170
"carl9170: fix HT peer BA session corruption".
We have to walk the list of pending BARs for every rx'red BA even
though most BAs don't belong to any of these BARs as they are just
acknowledging an AMPDU. To keep that overhead low use RCU which allows
us to walk the list of pending BARs without the need to acquire a lock.
This however requires us to _copy_ relevant information from the BAR
(RA, TA, control field, start sequence number) into our BAR list entry.

Paul Gortmaker says:
====================
The Ethernet-HowTo was maintained for roughly 10 years, from 1993 to 2003.
Fortunately sane hardware probing and auto detection (via PCI and ISA/PnP)
largely made the document a relic of the past, hence it being abandoned
a decade ago.
However, there is one last useful thing that we can extract from the
effort made in maintaining that document. We can use it to guide us
with respect to what rare, experimental and/or super ancient 10Mbit
ISA drivers don't make sense to maintain in-tree anymore.
Nobody will argue that ISA is obsolete. Availability went away at about
the time Pentium3 motherboards moved from 500MHz Slot1/SECC processors
to the green 500MHz Socket 370 Pentium3 chips, at the turn of the century.
In theory, it is possible that someone could still be running one of these
12+ year old P3 machines and want 3.9+ bleeding edge kernels (but unlikely).
In light of the above (remote) possibility, we can defer the removal of some
ISA network drivers that were highly popular and well tested. Typically
that means the stuff more from the mid to late '90s, some with ISA PnP
support, like the 3c509, the wd/SMC 8390 based stuff, PCnet/lance etc.
But a lot of other drivers, typically from the early 1990s were for rare
hardware, and experimental (to the point of requiring a cron job that would
do a test ping, and then ifconfig down/up and/or a rmmod/insmod!). And
some of these drivers (znet, and lp486e to name two) are physically tied
to platforms with on motherboard ethernet -- of 486 machines that date
from the early 1990s and can only have single digit amounts of memory.
What I'd like to achieve here with this series, is to get rid of those old
drivers that are no longer being used. In an earlier discussion where
I'd proposed deleting a single driver, Alan suggested we instead dump
all the historical stuff in one go, to make it "...immediately obvious
where the break point is..."[1] and that it was "perfectly reasonable it
(and a pile of other ISA cards) ought to be shown the door"[2]. So that
is the goal here - make a clear line in the sand where the really ancient
stuff finally gets kicked to the curb.
Two old parallel port drivers are considered for removal here as well,
since in early 386/486 ISA machines, the parallel port was typically found
with the UARTS on the multi-I/O ISA controller card. These drivers also date
from the early 1990's; parallel ports are no longer found on modern boards,
and their performance was not even capable of 10% of 10Mbit bandwidth.
Allow me a preemptive justification against the inevitable comments from
well meaning bystanders who suggest "why not just leave all this alone?".
Dead drivers cost us all if they are left in tree. If you think that
is false, then please first consider:
-every time you type "git status", you are checking to see if modifications
have been made by you to all that dead code.
-every time you type "git grep <regex>" you are searching through files
which contain that dead code that simply does not interest you.
-every time you build a "allyesconfig" and an "allmodconfig" (don't tell
me you skip this step before submitting your changes to a maintainer),
you waste CPU cycles building this dead code.
-every time there is a tree wide API change, or cleanup, or file relocation,
we pay the cost of updating dead code, or moving dead code.
-daily regression tests (take linux-next as the most transparent
example) spend time building (and possibly running) this dead code.
-hard working people who regularly run auditing tools looking for lurking
bugs (sparse/coverity/smatch/coccinelle) are wasting time checking for,
and fixing bugs in this dead code.
This last one is key. Please take a look at the git history for the
files that are proposed for removal here. Look at the git history for
any one of them ("git whatchanged --follow drivers/net/.../driver.c")
Mentally sort the changes into two bins -- (1) the robotic tree-wide
changes, and (2) the "look I found a real run-time bug while using this"
category. You will see that category #2 is essentially empty.
Further to that, realize that drivers don't simply disappear. We are
not operating in the binary-only distribution space like other OS. All
these drivers remain in the git history forever. If a person is an
enthusiast for extreme legacy hardware, they are probably already
customizing their kernel source and building it themselves to support
such systems. Also keep in mind that they could still build the 3.8
kernel exactly as-is, and run it (or a 3.8.x stable variant of it) for
several more years if they were really determined to cling to these old
experimental ISA drivers for some reason.
In summary, I hope that folks can be pragmatic about this, and not
get swept up in nostalgia. Ask yourself whether it is realistic to
expect a person would have a genuine use case where they would
need to build a 3.9+ modern kernel and install it on some legacy hardware
that has no option but to absolutely _require_ one of the drivers
that are deleted here.
The following series was created with --irreversible-delete for
ease of review (it skips showing the content of files that are
deleted); however the complete patches can be pulled as per below.

neigh_periodic_work() purges NCEs over and over again even for

It does not make sense to purge entries, if number of them is
very small, so keep them. The minimum number of entries to keep

get a refcount on the route if we get it from__sk_dst_get(), but
we need one if we want to reuse this route because __sk_dst_set()
releases the refcount of the old route. This patch adds proper
refcount handling for that case. We introduce a 'new' flag to
indicate that we are going to use a new route and we release the
old route only if we replace it by a new one.

Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Kprobes now uses the function tracer if it can. That is, if a probe
is placed on a function mcount/nop location, and the arch supports it,
instead of adding a breakpoint, kprobes will register a function
callback as that is much more efficient.
The function tracer requires to update modules before they run, and
uses the module notifier to do so. But if something else in the
module notifiers registers a kprobe at one of these locations, before
ftrace can get to it, then the system could fail.
The function tracer must be initialized early, otherwise module
notifiers that probe will only work by chance."

wake_up_process() should never wakeup a TASK_STOPPED/TRACED task.
Change it to use TASK_NORMAL and add the WARN_ON().
TASK_ALL has no other users, probably can be killed.

putreg() assumes that the tracee is not running and pt_regs_access() can
safely play with its stack. However a killed tracee can return from
ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means
that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee
does SAVE_REST again.
set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this
race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the
logic.
As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace()
call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the
debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we
can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths.
Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it
makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before
access_process_vm().
While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why
ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

By popular demand, arch/aarch64 is now known as arch/arm64. However,
uname -m (and indeed the GNU triplet) still use aarch64 as the machine
string.
This patch fixes native builds of both the kernel and perf tools by
updating the relevant Makefiles to munge the output of uname -m and
set the ARCH variable appropriately.

The kernel's internal definition of ELF_NGREG uses struct pt_regs, which
means that we disagree with userspace on the size of coredumps since
glibc correctly uses the user-visible struct user_pt_regs.
This patch fixes our ELF_NGREG definition to use struct user_pt_regs
and introduces our own ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS to convert between the user
and kernel structure definitions.

This patch (as1642) adds an ehci->priv field for private use by EHCI
platform drivers. The space was provided some time ago, but it didn't
have a name.
Until now none of the platform drivers has used this private space,
but that's about to change in the next patch of this series.

This patch (as1641) fixes a minor bug in ehci-hcd left over from when

should be IS_ENABLED(), not defined().

Without this, platform drivers e.g. ehci-omap.c will see a
different version of struct ehci_hcd than ehci-hcd.c and
break reference to 'debug_dir' and 'priv' members when
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled.

This patch (as1644) fixes a race that occurs during startup in
uhci-hcd. If the IRQ line is shared with other devices, it's possible
for the handler routine to be called before the data structures are
fully initialized.
The problem is fixed by adding a check to the IRQ handler routine. If
the initialization hasn't finished yet, the routine will return
immediately.

Cleanup and preparation for the next change.
signal_wake_up(resume => true) is overused. None of ptrace/jctl callers
actually want to wakeup a TASK_WAKEKILL task, but they can't specify the
necessary mask.
Turn signal_wake_up() into signal_wake_up_state(state), reintroduce
signal_wake_up() as a trivial helper, and add ptrace_signal_wake_up()
which adds __TASK_TRACED.
This way ptrace_signal_wake_up() can work "inside" ptrace_request()
even if the tracee doesn't have the TASK_WAKEKILL bit set.
