This patch splits the netdev_alloc_frag function up so that it can be used
on one of two page frag pools instead of being fixed on the
netdev_alloc_cache. By doing this we can add a NAPI specific function
__napi_alloc_frag that accesses a pool that is only used from softirq
context. The advantage to this is that we do not need to call
local_irq_save/restore which can be a significant savings.
I also took the opportunity to refactor the core bits that were placed in
__alloc_page_frag. First I updated the allocation to do either a 32K
allocation or an order 0 page. This is based on the changes in commmit
d9b2938aa where it was found that latencies could be reduced in case of
failures. Then I also rewrote the logic to work from the end of the page to
the start. By doing this the size value doesn't have to be used unless we
have run out of space for page fragments. Finally I cleaned up the atomic
bits so that we just do an atomic_sub_and_test and if that returns true then
we set the page->_count via an atomic_set. This way we can remove the extra
conditional for the atomic_read since it would have led to an atomic_inc in
the case of success anyway.

Pull irq domain updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The real interesting irq updates:
- Support for hierarchical irq domains:
For complex interrupt routing scenarios where more than one
interrupt related chip is involved we had no proper representation
in the generic interrupt infrastructure so far. That made people
implement rather ugly constructs in their nested irq chip
implementations. The main offenders are x86 and arm/gic.
To distangle that mess we have now hierarchical irqdomains which
seperate the various interrupt chips and connect them via the
hierarchical domains. That keeps the domain specific details
internal to the particular hierarchy level and removes the
criss/cross referencing of chip internals. The resulting hierarchy
for a complex x86 system will look like this:
vector mapped: 74
msi-0 mapped: 2
dmar-ir-1 mapped: 69
ioapic-1 mapped: 4
ioapic-0 mapped: 20
pci-msi-2 mapped: 45
dmar-ir-0 mapped: 3
ioapic-2 mapped: 1
pci-msi-1 mapped: 2
htirq mapped: 0
Neither ioapic nor pci-msi know about the dmar interrupt remapping
between themself and the vector domain. If interrupt remapping is
disabled ioapic and pci-msi become direct childs of the vector
domain.
In hindsight we should have done that years ago, but in hindsight
we always know better :)
- Support for generic MSI interrupt domain handling
We have more and more non PCI related MSI interrupts, so providing
a generic infrastructure for this is better than having all
affected architectures implementing their own private hacks.
- Support for PCI-MSI interrupt domain handling, based on the generic
MSI support.
This part carries the pci/msi branch from Bjorn Helgaas pci tree to
avoid a massive conflict. The PCI/MSI parts are acked by Bjorn.
I have two more branches on top of this. The full conversion of x86
to hierarchical domains and a partial conversion of arm/gic"

The size of unsigned long varies between 32 and 64 bit systems while
the size of phandle arguments is always 32 bits per parameter.
On 64-bit systems, cooling devices registered via of-thermal apis fail
to bind when the min/max cooling state is specified as
THERMAL_NO_LIMIT (-1UL) as there is a mis-match between the value read
from the device tree (32bit) and the pre-processor define (64bit).
As we're unlikely to need cooling states larger than 32 bits, and for
consistency with the size of phandle arguments, explicitly limit
THERMAL_NO_LIMIT to 32 bits.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.
This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest
blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop. Such
bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.
Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() ->
sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug().
There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
isn't much of a nuisance.
This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered
with it, so no messages are expected normally.
- Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y.
- Another round of sched/dl fixes and refinements.
Plus various smaller fixes and cleanups"

There are two sets of patches that change significant portions of

- Will Deacon has done a set of patches to ensure that all
architectures define {read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed() functions or
get them by including asm-generic/io.h.
These functions are commonly used on ARM specific drivers to avoid
expensive L2 cache synchronization implied by the normal
{read,write}{b,w,l,q}, but we need to define them on all
architectures in order to share the drivers across architectures
and to enable CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST configurations for them

have other drivers for similar hardware. The cleanups are still

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next
John W. Linville says:
====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-12-08
Please pull this last batch of pending wireless updates for the 3.19 tree...
For the wireless bits, Johannes says:
"This time I have Felix's no-status rate control work, which will allow
drivers to work better with rate control even if they don't have perfect
status reporting. In addition to this, a small hwsim fix from Patrik,
one of the regulatory patches from Arik, and a number of cleanups and
fixes I did myself.
Of note is a patch where I disable CFG80211_WEXT so that compatibility
is no longer selectable - this is intended as a wake-up call for anyone
who's still using it, and is still easily worked around (it's a one-line
patch) before we fully remove the code as well in the future."
For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:
"Here's one more bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19:
- Minor cleanups for ieee802154 & mac802154
- Fix for the kernel warning with !TASK_RUNNING reported by Kirill A.
Shutemov
- Support for another ath3k device
- Fix for tracking link key based security level
- Device tree bindings for btmrvl + a state update fix
- Fix for wrong ACL flags on LE links"
And...
"In addition to the previous one this contains two more cleanups to
mac802154 as well as support for some new HCI features from the
Bluetooth 4.2 specification.
From the original request:
'Here's what should be the last bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19.
It's rather large but the majority of it is the Low Energy Secure
Connections feature that's part of the Bluetooth 4.2 specification. The
specification went public only this week so we couldn't publish the
corresponding code before that. The code itself can nevertheless be
considered fairly mature as it's been in development for over 6 months
and gone through several interoperability test events.
Besides LE SC the pull request contains an important fix for command
complete events for mgmt sockets which also fixes some leaks of hci_conn
objects when powering off or unplugging Bluetooth adapters.
A smaller feature that's part of the pull request is service discovery
support. This is like normal device discovery except that devices not
matching specific UUIDs or strong enough RSSI are filtered out.
Other changes that the pull request contains are firmware dump support
to the btmrvl driver, firmware download support for Broadcom BCM20702A0
variants, as well as some coding style cleanups in 6lowpan &
ieee802154/mac802154 code.'"
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"With this one we get:
- NFC digital improvements for DEP support: Chaining, NACK and ATN
support added.
- NCI improvements: Support for p2p target, SE IO operand addition,
SE operands extensions to support proprietary implementations, and
a few fixes.
- NFC HCI improvements: OPEN_PIPE and NOTIFY_ALL_CLEARED support,
and SE IO operand addition.
- A bunch of minor improvements and fixes for STMicro st21nfcb and
st21nfca"
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"Major works are CSA and TDLS. On top of that I have a new
firmware API for scan and a few rate control improvements.
Johannes find a few tricks to improve our CPU utilization
and adds support for a new spin of 7265 called 7265D.
Along with this a few random things that don't stand out."
And...
"I deprecate here -8.ucode since -9 has been published long ago.
Along with that I have a new activity, we have now better
a infrastructure for firmware debugging. This will allow to
have configurable probes insides the firmware.
Luca continues his work on NetDetect, this feature is now
complete. All the rest is minor fixes here and there."
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"Only ath10k changes this time and no major changes. Most visible are:
o new debugfs interface for runtime firmware debugging (Yanbo)
o fix shared WEP (Sujith)
o don't rebuild whenever kernel version changes (Johannes)
o lots of refactoring to make it easier to add new hw support (Michal)
There's also smaller fixes and improvements with no point of listing
here."
In addition, there are a few last minute updates to ath5k,
ath9k, brcmfmac, brcmsmac, mwifiex, rt2x00, rtlwifi, and wil6210.
Also included is a pull of the wireless tree to pick-up the fixes
originally included in "pull request: wireless 2014-12-03"...

setgroups is unique in not needing a valid mapping before it can be called,
in the case of setgroups(0, NULL) which drops all supplemental groups.
The design of the user namespace assumes that CAP_SETGID can not actually
be used until a gid mapping is established. Therefore add a helper function
to see if the user namespace gid mapping has been established and call
that function in the setgroups permission check.
This is part of the fix for CVE-2014-8989, being able to drop groups
without privilege using user namespaces.

"The DT branch adds a lot of new stuff for additional SoC and board
support. The branch is the largest one and contains 513 out of the
total 972 non-merge arm-soc changesets for 3.19.
Most of the changes are about enabling additional on-chip devices for

Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Arnd Bergmann:
"The remaining cleanups for 3.19 are to a large part result of
devicetree conversion nearing completion on two other platforms
besides AT91:
- Like AT91, Renesas shmobile is in the process to migrate to DT and
multiplatform, but using a different approach of doing it one SoC
at a time. For 3.19, the r8a7791 platform and associated "Koelsch"
board are considered complete and we remove the non-DT
non-multiplatform support for this.
- The ARM Versatile Express has supported DT and multiplatform for a
long time, but we have still kept the legacy board files around,
because not all drivers were fully working before. We have finally
taken the last step to remove the board files.
Other changes in this branch are preparation for the later branches or
just unrelated to the more interesting changes:
- The dts files for arm64 get moved into per-vendor directories for a
clearer structure.
- Some dead code removal (zynq, exynos, davinci, imx)

Pull ARM SoC cleanup on mach-at91 from Arnd Bergmann:
"On Atmel AT91, the conversion to device tree is now considered
complete, and all machines that were not already converted in 3.18 are
assumed to be unused and dropped by the maintainer.
All remaining board files that were written in C are dropped, and the
ancient at91x40 sub-platform (based on an MMU-less ARM7) is removed
altogether. Cleaning up the last pieces was great fun, so I took the
time to do some of the coding myself and removed several hundred code
lines that ended up unused after the board files were done.
There are still a couple of AT91 specific device drivers that are not
converted to DT (CF, USB-OTG) and currently not working, and the
platform itself is not "multiplatform"-enabled, but both issues are
going to be taken care of in the 3.20 cycle.

Commit 95bd09eb2750 ("tcp: TSO packets automatic sizing") tried to
control TSO size, but did this at the wrong place (sendmsg() time)
At sendmsg() time, we might have a pessimistic view of flow rate,
and we end up building very small skbs (with 2 MSS per skb).
This is bad because :
- It sends small TSO packets even in Slow Start where rate quickly
increases.
- It tends to make socket write queue very big, increasing tcp_ack()
processing time, but also increasing memory needs, not necessarily
accounted for, as fast clones overhead is currently ignored.
- Lower GRO efficiency and more ACK packets.
Servers with a lot of small lived connections suffer from this.
Lets instead fill skbs as much as possible (64KB of payload), but split
them at xmit time, when we have a precise idea of the flow rate.
skb split is actually quite efficient.
Patch looks bigger than necessary, because TCP Small Queue decision now
has to take place after the eventual split.
As Neal suggested, introduce a new tcp_tso_autosize() helper, so that
tcp_tso_should_defer() can be synchronized on same goal.
Rename tp->xmit_size_goal_segs to tp->gso_segs, as this variable
contains number of mss that we can put in GSO packet, and is not
related to the autosizing goal anymore.

... making both non-draining. That means that tcp_recvmsg() becomes
non-draining. And _that_ would break iscsit_do_rx_data() unless we
a) make sure tcp_recvmsg() is uniformly non-draining (it is)
b) make sure it copes with arbitrary (including shifted)
iov_iter (it does, all it uses is iov_iter primitives)
c) make iscsit_do_rx_data() initialize ->msg_iter only once.
Fortunately, (c) is doable with minimal work and we are rid of one
the two places where kernel send/recvmsg users would be unhappy with
non-draining behaviour.
Actually, that makes all but one of ->recvmsg() instances iov_iter-clean.
The exception is skcipher_recvmsg() and it also isn't hard to convert
to primitives (iov_iter_get_pages() is needed there). That'll wait
a bit - there's some interplay with ->sendmsg() path for that one.

When deploying FQ pacing, one thing we noticed is that CUBIC Hystart
triggers too soon.
Having SNMP counters to have an idea of how often the various Hystart
methods trigger is useful prior to any modifications.
This patch adds SNMP counters tracking, how many time "ack train" or
"Delay" based Hystart triggers, and cumulative sum of cwnd at the time
Hystart decided to end SS (Slow Start)
myhost:~# nstat -a | grep Hystart
TcpExtTCPHystartTrainDetect 9 0.0
TcpExtTCPHystartTrainCwnd 20650 0.0
TcpExtTCPHystartDelayDetect 10 0.0
TcpExtTCPHystartDelayCwnd 360 0.0
->
Train detection was triggered 9 times, and average cwnd was
20650/9=2294,
Delay detection was triggered 10 times and average cwnd was 36

Commit ce1a4ea3f125 ("net: avoid one atomic operation in skb_clone()")
took the wrong way to save one atomic operation.
It is actually possible to avoid two atomic operations, if we
do not change skb->fclone values, and only rely on clone_ref
content to signal if the clone is available or not.
skb_clone() can simply use the fast clone if clone_ref is 1.
kfree_skbmem() can avoid the atomic_dec_and_test() if clone_ref is 1.
Note that because we usually free the clone before the original skb,
this particular attempt is only done for the original skb to have better
branch prediction.
SKB_FCLONE_FREE is removed.

The commit 56bfa7ee7c ("unregister_netdevice : move RTM_DELLINK to
until after ndo_uninit") tried to do this ealier but while doing so
it created a problem. Unfortunately the delayed rtmsg_ifinfo() also
delayed call to fill_info(). So this translated into asking driver
to remove private state and then query it's private state. This
could have catastropic consequences.
This change breaks the rtmsg_ifinfo() into two parts - one takes the
precise snapshot of the device by called fill_info() before calling
the ndo_uninit() and the second part sends the notification using
collected snapshot.
It was brought to notice when last link is deleted from an ipvlan device
when it has free-ed the port and the subsequent .fill_info() call is
trying to get the info from the port.

Testing has shown that the pool->sp_lock can be a bottleneck on a busy
server. Every time data is received on a socket, the server must take
that lock in order to dequeue a thread from the sp_threads list.
Address this problem by eliminating the sp_threads list (which contains
threads that are currently idle) and replacing it with a RQ_BUSY flag in
svc_rqst. This allows us to walk the sp_all_threads list under the
rcu_read_lock and find a suitable thread for the xprt by doing a
test_and_set_bit.
Note that we do still have a potential atomicity problem however with
this approach. We don't want svc_xprt_do_enqueue to set the
rqst->rq_xprt pointer unless a test_and_set_bit of RQ_BUSY returned
zero (which indicates that the thread was idle). But, by the time we
check that, the bit could be flipped by a waking thread.
To address this, we acquire a new per-rqst spinlock (rq_lock) and take
that before doing the test_and_set_bit. If that returns false, then we
can set rq_xprt and drop the spinlock. Then, when the thread wakes up,
it must set the bit under the same spinlock and can trust that if it was
already set then the rq_xprt is also properly set.
With this scheme, the case where we have an idle thread no longer needs
to take the highly contended pool->sp_lock at all, and that removes the
bottleneck.
That still leaves one issue: What of the case where we walk the whole
sp_all_threads list and don't find an idle thread? Because the search is
lockess, it's possible for the queueing to race with a thread that is
going to sleep. To address that, we queue the xprt and then search again.
If we find an idle thread at that point, we can't attach the xprt to it
directly since that might race with a different thread waking up and
finding it. All we can do is wake the idle thread back up and let it
attempt to find the now-queued xprt.

In a later patch, we'll be removing some spinlocking around the socket
and thread queueing code in order to fix some contention problems. At
that point, the stats counters will no longer be protected by the
sp_lock.
Change the counters to atomic_long_t fields, except for the
"sockets_queued" counter which will still be manipulated under a
spinlock.
