mlx4 exclusively uses order-2 allocations in RX path, which are
likely to fail under memory pressure.
We therefore drop frames more than needed.
This patch tries order-3, order-2, order-1 and finally order-0
allocations to keep good performance, yet allow allocations if/when
memory gets fragmented.
By using larger pages, and avoiding unnecessary get_page()/put_page()
on compound pages, this patch improves performance as well, lowering
false sharing on struct page.
Also use GFP_KERNEL allocations in initialization path, as allocating 12
MB (390 order-3 pages) can easily fail with GFP_ATOMIC.

Ben Hutchings says:
====================
1. Make EEH recovery work when using legacy interrupts, from Alexandre
Rames.
2. Enable accelerated RFS for VLAN-tagged flows, from Andy Lutomirski.
3. Improve performance for non-TCP (and particularly UDP) traffic, which
regressed in 3.10 when we switched to always allocating paged RX
buffers. Partly by Jon Cooper.
4. Some minor bug fixes to IOMMU detection, timestamping capabilities,
and IRQ cleanup on the probe failure path.
I've dropped the RX skb cache, which improved some benchmarks but
perhaps needs some reworking to be more generally useful.

"net: introduce NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT" network drivers receive a warning
when they use napi weight higher than NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT. This patch
reduces QETH_NAPI_WEIGHT from 128 to 64 (NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT).

When the initial MTU size is changed prior to any activity on the device
(e.g. by attaching a z/VM vNIC already configured in Linux to a guestLAN),
we call dev_kfree_skb_irq(NULL) which results in a kernel panic.
Adding a proper check for NULL pointers to address this issue.

blkt settings (or LAN idle settings) for an OSA Express card
determine when and how often an OSA Express card tells the
operating system about new incoming packets. The semantic of
these settings has changed starting with OSA Express3. Currently
the qeth standard settings apply to OSA Express2 and older
generations of OSA Express cards, while new generations of OSA
Express cards require extra coding of their reasonable default.
To cover future OSA Express generations the qeth default standard
blkt setting is now the desired setting for OSA generations
starting with OSA Express3, while the fixed set of older OSA
Express cards receives its blkt settings explicitly.

Currently, there is no good possibility to debug netlink traffic that
is being exchanged between kernel and user space. Therefore, this patch
implements a netlink virtual device, so that netlink messages will be
made visible to PF_PACKET sockets. Once there was an approach with a
similar idea [1], but it got forgotten somehow.
I think it makes most sense to accept the "overhead" of an extra netlink
net device over implementing the same functionality from PF_PACKET
sockets once again into netlink sockets. We have BPF filters that can
already be easily applied which even have netlink extensions, we have
RX_RING zero-copy between kernel- and user space that can be reused,
and much more features. So instead of re-implementing all of this, we
simply pass the skb to a given PF_PACKET socket for further analysis.
Another nice benefit that comes from that is that no code needs to be
changed in user space packet analyzers (maybe adding a dissector, but
not more), thus out of the box, we can already capture pcap files of
netlink traffic to debug/troubleshoot netlink problems.
Also thanks goes to Thomas Graf, Flavio Leitner, Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

The lifetime of an irq_cpu_rmap is odd: we have to allocate it before
installing IRQ handlers and free it before removing the IRQ handlers.
As a result of this asymmetry, it was omitted from some failure paths.
On another failure path, we could try to remove IRQ handlers we
had not yet installed.
Move the irq_cpu_rmap allocation and freeing alongside IRQ handler
installation and removal, in efx_nic_{init,fini}_interrupts().
Count the number of IRQ handlers successfully installed and only
remove those on the failure path.

GRO can handle non-TCP packets and pass them up without coalescing,
but it has to do some extra work to parse the packet which we can
bypass using the hardware parse result. (This condition yields a
false negative for TCP/IPv6 packets received by Falcon, but its
performance is already poor in that case due to lack of checksum
offload.)

Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read()
even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the
one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page.
With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling
skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally
intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda), that is, only call
skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next
John W. Linville says:
====================
I would guess that this is the last big wireless pull request before
the 3.11 merge window...
Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"I have a number of mesh fixes and improvements from Colleen, Jacob,
Ashok and Thomas, powersave fixes in mac80211 from Alex, improved
management-TX from Antonio, and a few various things, including locking
fixes, from others and myself. Overall though, nothing really stands
out."
As for the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:
"Emmanuel contributed two AP mode fixes, removed an unused field, fixed a
comment and added a warning for something that shouldn't happen in
practice, and I removed the declaration of a function that doesn't even
exist and cleaned up a small include."
"This time I have a number of cleanups, a small fix from Emmanuel and two
performance improvements that combined reduce our driver's CPU
utilisation as much as 75% in high TX-throughput scenarios."
"These two patches fix two issues with using rfkill randomly during
traffic, which would then cause our driver to stop working and not be
able to recover at all."
Regarding the ath6kl bits, Kalle says:
"Here are few simple patches for ath6kl. We have a suspend crash fix for
USB from Shafi, use of mac_pton(), a compiler warning fix and a fix for
module initialisation error path."
Kalle also sends the biggest single item of note, the new ath10k
driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac CQA98xx devices.
Included is an NFC pull, of which Samuel says:
"These are the pending NFC patches for the 3.11 merge window.
It contains the pending fixes that were on nfc-fixes (nfc-fixes-3.10-2),
along with a few more for the pn544 and pn533 drivers, the LLCP
disconnection path and an LLCP memory leak.
Highlights for this one are:
- An initial secure element API. NFC chipsets can carry an embedded
secure element or get access to the SIM one. In both cases they
control the secure elements and this API provides a way to discover,
enable and disable the available SEs. It also exports that to
userspace in order for SE focused middleware to actually do something
with them (e.g. payments).
- NCI over SPI support. SPI is the most complex NCI specified transport
layer and we now have support for it in the kernel. The next step will
be to implement drivers for NCI chipsets using this transport like
e.g. bcm2079x.
- NFC p2p hardware simulation driver. We now have an nfcsim driver that
is mostly a loopback device between 2 NFC interfaces. It also
implements the rest of the NFC core API like polling and target
detection. This driver, with neard running on top of it, allows us to
completely test the LLCP, SNEP and Handover implementation without
physical hardware.
- A Firmware update netlink API. Most (All ?) HCI chipsets have a
special firmware update mode where applications can push a new
firmware that will be flashed. We now have a netlink API for providing
that mode to e.g. nfctool."
On top of all that, there are a variety of updates to brcmfmac,
iwlegacy, rtlwifi, wil6210, and the TI wl12xx drivers. As usual,
the bcma and ssb busses get a little love as well, as do a handful
of others here and there.
