Introduce a framework for transcoding legacy nl action into actions
(.doit) calls from the new nl API. This is done by converting the
incoming TLV data into netlink data with nested netlink attributes.
Unfortunately due to the randomness of the legacy API we can't do this
generically so each legacy netlink command requires a specific
transcoding recipe. In this case for bearer enable and bearer disable.
Convert TIPC_CMD_ENABLE_BEARER and TIPC_CMD_DISABLE_BEARER into doit
compat calls.

Introduce a framework for dumping netlink data from the new netlink
API and formatting it to the old legacy API format. This is done by
looping the dump data and calling a format handler for each entity, in
this case a bearer.
We dump until either all data is dumped or we reach the limited buffer
size of the legacy API. Remember, the legacy API doesn't scale.
In this commit we convert TIPC_CMD_GET_BEARER_NAMES to use the compat
layer.

For blk-mq request-based DM the responsibility of allocating a cloned
request is transfered from DM core to the target type. Doing so
enables the cloned request to be allocated from the appropriate
blk-mq request_queue's pool (only the DM target, e.g. multipath, can
know which block device to send a given cloned request to).
Care was taken to preserve compatibility with old-style block request
completion that requires request-based DM _not_ acquire the clone
request's queue lock in the completion path. As such, there are now 2
different request-based DM target_type interfaces:
1) the original .map_rq() interface will continue to be used for
non-blk-mq devices -- the preallocated clone request is passed in
from DM core.
2) a new .clone_and_map_rq() and .release_clone_rq() will be used for
blk-mq devices -- blk_get_request() and blk_put_request() are used
respectively from these hooks.
dm_table_set_type() was updated to detect if the request-based target is
being stacked on blk-mq devices, if so DM_TYPE_MQ_REQUEST_BASED is set.
DM core disallows switching the DM table's type after it is set. This
means that there is no mixing of non-blk-mq and blk-mq devices within
the same request-based DM table.

The socket lock is currently held by the task that is requesting the
connection be established. While that is efficient in the case where
the connection happens quickly, it is racy in the case where it doesn't.
What we really want is for the connect helper to be able to block access
to the socket while it is being set up.
This patch does so by arranging to transfer the socket lock from the
task that is requesting the connect attempt, and then releasing that
lock once everything is done.
This scheme also gives us automatic protection against collisions with
the RPC close code, so we can kill the cancel_delayed_work_sync()
call in xs_close().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"During testing Sedat Dilek hit a "suspicious RCU usage" splat that
pointed out a real bug. During suspend and resume the tlb_flush
tracepoint is called when the CPU is going offline. As the CPU has
been noted as offline, RCU is ignoring that CPU, which means that it
can not use RCU protected locks. When tracepoints are activated, they
require RCU locking, and if RCU is ignoring a CPU that runs a
tracepoint, there is a chance that the tracepoint could cause
corruption.
The solution was to change the tracepoint into a
TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() which allows us to check a condition to
determine if the tracepoint should be called or not. If the condition
is not met, the rcu protected code will not be executed. By adding
the condition "cpu_online(smp_processor_id())", this will prevent the
RCU protected code from being executed if the CPU is marked offline.
After adding this, another bug was discovered. As RCU checks rcu
callers, if a rcu call is not done, there is no check (obviously). We
found that tracepoints could be added in RCU ignored locations and not
have lockdep complain until the tracepoint is activated. This missed
places where tracepoints were added in places they should not have
been. To fix this, code was added in 3.18 that if lockdep is enabled,
any tracepoint will still call the rcu checks even if the tracepoint
is not enabled. The bug here, is that the check does not take the
CONDITION into account. As the condition may prevent tracepoints from
being activated in RCU ignored areas (as the one patch does), we get
false positives when we enable lockdep and hit a tracepoint that the
condition prevents it from being called in a RCU ignored location.
The fix for this is to add the CONDITION to the rcu checks, even if
the tracepoint is not enabled"

Receive Flow Steering is a nice solution but suffers from
hash collisions when a mix of connected and unconnected traffic
is received on the host, when flow hash table is populated.
Also, clearing flow in inet_release() makes RFS not very good
for short lived flows, as many packets can follow close().
(FIN , ACK packets, ...)
This patch extends the information stored into global hash table
to not only include cpu number, but upper part of the hash value.
I use a 32bit value, and dynamically split it in two parts.
For host with less than 64 possible cpus, this gives 6 bits for the
cpu number, and 26 (32-6) bits for the upper part of the hash.
Since hash bucket selection use low order bits of the hash, we have
a full hash match, if /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries is big
enough.
If the hash found in flow table does not match, we fallback to RPS (if
it is enabled for the rxqueue).
This means that a packet for an non connected flow can avoid the
IPI through a unrelated/victim CPU.
This also means we no longer have to clear the table at socket
close time, and this helps short lived flows performance.

In the SYN_RECV state, where the TCP connection is represented by
tcp_request_sock, we now rate-limit SYNACKs in response to a client's
retransmitted SYNs: we do not send a SYNACK in response to client SYN
if it has been less than sysctl_tcp_invalid_ratelimit (default 500ms)
since we last sent a SYNACK in response to a client's retransmitted
SYN.
This allows the vast majority of legitimate client connections to
proceed unimpeded, even for the most aggressive platforms, iOS and
MacOS, which actually retransmit SYNs 1-second intervals for several
times in a row. They use SYN RTO timeouts following the progression:
1,1,1,1,1,2,4,8,16,32.

Helpers for mitigating ACK loops by rate-limiting dupacks sent in
response to incoming out-of-window packets.
This patch includes:
- rate-limiting logic
- sysctl to control how often we allow dupacks to out-of-window packets
- SNMP counter for cases where we rate-limited our dupack sending
The rate-limiting logic in this patch decides to not send dupacks in
response to out-of-window segments if (a) they are SYNs or pure ACKs
and (b) the remote endpoint is sending them faster than the configured
rate limit.
We rate-limit our responses rather than blocking them entirely or
resetting the connection, because legitimate connections can rely on
dupacks in response to some out-of-window segments. For example, zero
window probes are typically sent with a sequence number that is below
the current window, and ZWPs thus expect to thus elicit a dupack in
response.
We allow dupacks in response to TCP segments with data, because these
may be spurious retransmissions for which the remote endpoint wants to
receive DSACKs. This is safe because segments with data can't
realistically be part of ACK loops, which by their nature consist of
each side sending pure/data-less ACKs to each other.
The dupack interval is controlled by a new sysctl knob,
tcp_invalid_ratelimit, given in milliseconds, in case an administrator
needs to dial this upward in the face of a high-rate DoS attack. The
name and units are chosen to be analogous to the existing analogous
knob for ICMP, icmp_ratelimit.
The default value for tcp_invalid_ratelimit is 500ms, which allows at
most one such dupack per 500ms. This is chosen to be 2x faster than
the 1-second minimum RTO interval allowed by RFC 6298 (section 2, rule
2.4). We allow the extra 2x factor because network delay variations
can cause packets sent at 1 second intervals to be compressed and
arrive much closer.

OVS userspace already probes the openvswitch kernel module for
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_SET_MASKED support. This patch adds the kernel module
implementation of masked set actions.
The existing set action sets many fields at once. When only a subset
of the IP header fields, for example, should be modified, all the IP
fields need to be exact matched so that the other field values can be
copied to the set action. A masked set action allows modification of
an arbitrary subset of the supported header bits without requiring the
rest to be matched.
Masked set action is now supported for all writeable key types, except
for the tunnel key. The set tunnel action is an exception as any
input tunnel info is cleared before action processing starts, so there
is no tunnel info to mask.
The kernel module converts all (non-tunnel) set actions to masked set
actions. This makes action processing more uniform, and results in
less branching and duplicating the action processing code. When
returning actions to userspace, the fully masked set actions are
converted back to normal set actions. We use a kernel internal action
code to be able to tell the userspace provided and converted masked
set actions apart.

NFC: 3.20 second pull request
This is the second NFC pull request for 3.20.
It brings:
- NCI NFCEE (NFC Execution Environment, typically an embedded or

In order to communicate with an NFCEE, we also added NCI's logical
connections support to the NCI stack.
- HCI over NCI protocol support. Some secure elements only understand
HCI and thus we need to send them HCI frames when they're part of
an NCI chipset.
- NFC_EVT_TRANSACTION userspace API addition. Whenever an application
running on a secure element needs to notify its host counterpart,
we send an NFC_EVENT_SE_TRANSACTION event to userspace through the
NFC netlink socket.
- Secure element and HCI transaction event support for the st21nfcb
chipset.

The trace_tlb_flush() tracepoint can be called when a CPU is going offline.
When a CPU is offline, RCU is no longer watching that CPU and since the
tracepoint is protected by RCU, it must not be called. To prevent the
tlb_flush tracepoint from being called when the CPU is offline, it was
converted to a TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION where the condition checks if the
CPU is online before calling the tracepoint.
Unfortunately, this was not enough to stop lockdep from complaining about
it. Even though the RCU protected code of the tracepoint will never be
called, the condition is hidden within the tracepoint, and even though the
condition prevents RCU code from being called, the lockdep checks are
outside the tracepoint (this is to test tracepoints even when they are not
enabled).
Even though tracepoints should be checked to be RCU safe when they are not
enabled, the condition should still be considered when checking RCU.

"Hopefully the final pull request for 3.19: this ended up with a
slightly higher volume than wished, but I put them all as they are
either stable or 3.19 regression fixes.
Most of commits are from ASoC, and have been stewed for a while in
linux-next. The only change in the common code is the regression
fixes for ASoC AC97 stuff wrt device registrations. The rest are
device-specific, mostly small fixes in various ASoC drivers and ak411x
on ice1724 boards"

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

For assigning sysfs entries for a card device from the driver,
introduce a new helper function, snd_card_add_dev_attr(). In this
way, we can avoid the possible race between the device registration
and the sysfs addition / removal.
The driver can pass a new attribute group to add freely. This has to
be called before snd_card_register().
Currently, up to two extra groups can be added. More than that, it'll
return an error.

While commit 7e36ef8205ff ("IB/core: Temporarily disable
ex_query_device uverb") is correct as it makes the extended
QUERY_DEVICE uverb (which came as part of commit 5a77abf9a97a
("IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps") and commit
860f10a799c8 ("IB/core: Add flags for on demand paging support")) not
available to userspace, it doesn't address the initial issue regarding
ib_copy_to_udata() [1][2].
Additionally, further discussions around this new uverb seems to
conclude it would require a different data structure than the one
currently described in <rdma/ib_user_verbs.h> [3].
Both of these issues require a revert of the changes, so this patch
partially reverts commit 8cdd312cfed7 ("IB/mlx5: Implement the ODP
capability query verb") and commit 860f10a799c8 ("IB/core: Add flags
for on demand paging support") and fully reverts commit 5a77abf9a97a
("IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps").

RFC 4429 ("Optimistic DAD") states that optimistic addresses
should be treated as deprecated addresses. From section 2.1:
Unless noted otherwise, components of the IPv6 protocol stack
should treat addresses in the Optimistic state equivalently to
those in the Deprecated state, indicating that the address is
available for use but should not be used if another suitable
address is available.
Optimistic addresses are indeed avoided when other addresses are
available (i.e. at source address selection time), but they have
not heretofore been available for things like explicit bind() and
sendmsg() with struct in6_pktinfo, etc.
This change makes optimistic addresses treated more like
deprecated addresses than tentative ones.

Conflicts:
drivers/net/vxlan.c
drivers/vhost/net.c
include/linux/if_vlan.h
net/core/dev.c
The net/core/dev.c conflict was the overlap of one commit marking an
existing function static whilst another was adding a new function.
In the include/linux/if_vlan.h case, the type used for a local
variable was changed in 'net', whereas the function got rewritten
to fix a stacked vlan bug in 'net-next'.
In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next'
overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'.
In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter
in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the
correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

ASoC: AC'97 fixes
These are rather too large for this late in the release cycle but
they're clear, well understood and have been tested to fix a regression
which was introduced for v3.19. The details are all in Lars' changelog
and they've been cooking in -next for a while, to a large extent out
of conservatism about the size.
