Pull networking changes from David Miller: 1) Allow to dump, monitor, and change the bridge multicast database using netlink. From Cong Wang. 2) RFC 5961 TCP blind data injection attack mitigation, from Eric Dumazet. 3) Networking user namespace support from Eric W. Biederman. 4) tuntap/virtio-net multiqueue support by Jason Wang. 5) Support for checksum offload of encapsulated packets (basically, tunneled traffic can still be checksummed by HW). From Joseph Gasparakis. 6) Allow BPF filter access to VLAN tags, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel Borkmann. 7) Bridge port parameters over netlink and BPDU blocking support from Stephen Hemminger. 8) Improve data access patterns during inet socket demux by rearranging socket layout, from Eric Dumazet. 9) TIPC protocol updates and cleanups from Ying Xue, Paul Gortmaker, and Jon Maloy. 10) Update TCP socket hash sizing to be more in line with current day realities. The existing heurstics were choosen a decade ago. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Fix races, queue bloat, and excessive wakeups in ATM and associated drivers, from Krzysztof Mazur and David Woodhouse. 12) Support DOVE (Distributed Overlay Virtual Ethernet) extensions in VXLAN driver, from David Stevens. 13) Add "oops_only" mode to netconsole, from Amerigo Wang. 14) Support set and query of VEB/VEPA bridge mode via PF_BRIDGE, also allow DCB netlink to work on namespaces other than the initial namespace. From John Fastabend. 15) Support PTP in the Tigon3 driver, from Matt Carlson. 16) tun/vhost zero copy fixes and improvements, plus turn it on by default, from Michael S. Tsirkin. 17) Support per-association statistics in SCTP, from Michele Baldessari. And many, many, driver updates, cleanups, and improvements.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro: "All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick. A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one): - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign. We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread() or kernel_execve(): kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do successful do_execve() before returning. kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to do transition to user mode anymore. As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely architecture-independent. - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/ copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump. - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in kernel/fork.c now." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: (113 commits) do_coredump(): get rid of pt_regs argument print_fatal_signal(): get rid of pt_regs argument ptrace_signal(): get rid of unused arguments get rid of ptrace_signal_deliver() arguments new helper: signal_pt_regs() unify default ptrace_signal_deliver flagday: kill pt_regs argument of do_fork() death to idle_regs() don't pass regs to copy_process() flagday: don't pass regs to copy_thread() bfin: switch to generic vfork, get rid of pointless wrappers xtensa: switch to generic clone() openrisc: switch to use of generic fork and clone unicore32: switch to generic clone(2) score: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone c6x: sanitize copy_thread(), get rid of clone(2) wrapper, switch to generic clone() take sys_fork/sys_vfork/sys_clone prototypes to linux/syscalls.h mn10300: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone h8300: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone tile: switch to generic clone() ...

2012-12-12Merge branch 'for-3.8' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo: "A lot of activities on cgroup side. The big changes are focused on making cgroup hierarchy handling saner. - cgroup_rmdir() had peculiar semantics - it allowed cgroup destruction to be vetoed by individual controllers and tried to drain refcnt synchronously. The vetoing never worked properly and caused good deal of contortions in cgroup. memcg was the last reamining user. Michal Hocko removed the usage and cgroup_rmdir() path has been simplified significantly. This was done in a separate branch so that the memcg people can base further memcg changes on top. - The above allowed cleaning up cgroup lifecycle management and implementation of generic cgroup iterators which are used to improve hierarchy support. - cgroup_freezer updated to allow migration in and out of a frozen cgroup and handle hierarchy. If a cgroup is frozen, all descendant cgroups are frozen. - netcls_cgroup and netprio_cgroup updated to handle hierarchy properly. - Various fixes and cleanups. - Two merge commits. One to pull in memcg and rmdir cleanups (needed to build iterators). The other pulled in cgroup/for-3.7-fixes for device_cgroup fixes so that further device_cgroup patches can be stacked on top."

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 BSP hotplug changes from Ingo Molnar: "This tree enables CPU#0 (the boot processor) to be onlined/offlined on x86, just like any other CPU. Enabled on Intel CPUs for now. Allowing this required the identification and fixing of latent CPU#0 assumptions (such as CPU#0 initializations, etc.) in the x86 architecture code, plus the identification of barriers to BSP-offlining, such as active PIC interrupts which can only be serviced on the BSP. It's behind a default-off option, and there's a debug option that allows the automatic testing of this feature. The motivation of this feature is to allow and prepare for true CPU-hotplug hardware support: recent changes to MCE support enable us to detect a deteriorating but not yet hard-failing L1/L2 cache on a CPU that could be soft-unplugged - or a failing L3 cache on a multi-socket system. Note that true hardware hot-plug is not yet fully enabled by this, because that requires a special platform wakeup sequence to be sent to the freshly powered up CPU#0. Future patches for this are planned, once such a platform exists.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest change affects group scheduling: we now track the runnable average on a per-task entity basis, allowing a smoother, exponential decay average based load/weight estimation instead of the previous binary on-the-runqueue/off-the-runqueue load weight method. This will inevitably disturb workloads that were in some sort of borderline balancing state or unstable equilibrium, so an eye has to be kept on regressions. For that reason the new load average is only limited to group scheduling (shares distribution) at the moment (which was also hurting the most from the prior, crude weight calculation and whose scheduling quality wins most from this change) - but we plan to extend this to regular SMP balancing as well in the future, which will simplify and speed up things a bit. Other changes involve ongoing preparatory work to extend NOHZ to the scheduler as well, eventually allowing completely irq-free user-space execution." * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (33 commits) Revert "sched/autogroup: Fix crash on reboot when autogroup is disabled" cputime: Comment cputime's adjusting code cputime: Consolidate cputime adjustment code cputime: Rename thread_group_times to thread_group_cputime_adjusted cputime: Move thread_group_cputime() to sched code vtime: Warn if irqs aren't disabled on system time accounting APIs vtime: No need to disable irqs on vtime_account() vtime: Consolidate a bit the ctx switch code vtime: Explicitly account pending user time on process tick vtime: Remove the underscore prefix invasion sched/autogroup: Fix crash on reboot when autogroup is disabled cputime: Separate irqtime accounting from generic vtime cputime: Specialize irq vtime hooks kvm: Directly account vtime to system on guest switch vtime: Make vtime_account_system() irqsafe vtime: Gather vtime declarations to their own header file sched: Describe CFS load-balancer sched: Introduce temporary FAIR_GROUP_SCHED dependency for load-tracking sched: Make __update_entity_runnable_avg() fast sched: Update_cfs_shares at period edge ...

Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327. Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9. 5.

Don't use enum-type bitfields in the module signature info block as we can't be certain how the compiler will handle them. As I understand it, it is arch dependent, and it is possible for the compiler to rearrange them based on endianness and to insert a byte of padding to pad the three enums out to four bytes. Instead use u8 fields for these, which the compiler should emit in the right order without padding.

Norbert reported: "3.7-rc6 booted with nmi_watchdog=0 fails to suspend to RAM or offline CPUs. It's reproducable with a KVM guest and physical system." The reason is that commit bcd951cf(watchdog: Use hotplug thread infrastructure) missed to take this into account. So the cpu offline code gets stuck in the teardown function because it accesses non initialized data structures. Add a check for watchdog_enabled into that path to cure the issue.

Commit 8852aac25e79 ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay") had the side-effect of performing delayed_work sanity checks even when @delay is 0, which should be fine for any sane use cases. Unfortunately, megaraid was being overly ingenious. It seemingly wanted to use cancel_delayed_work_sync() before cancel_work_sync() was introduced, but didn't want to waste the space for full delayed_work as it was only going to use 0 @delay. So, it only allocated space for struct work_struct and then cast it to struct delayed_work and passed it into delayed_work functions - truly awesome engineering tradeoff to save some bytes. Xiaotian fixed it by making megraid allocate full delayed_work for now. It should be converted to use work_struct and cancel_work_sync() but I think we better do that after 3.7.

8852aac25e ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay") unexpectedly uncovered a very nasty abuse of delayed_work in megaraid - it allocated work_struct, casted it to delayed_work and then pass that into queue_delayed_work(). Previously, this was okay because 0 @delay short-circuited to queue_work() before doing anything with delayed_work. 8852aac25e moved 0 @delay test into __queue_delayed_work() after sanity check on delayed_work making megaraid trigger BUG_ON(). Although megaraid is already fixed by c1d390d8e6 ("megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work"), this patch converts BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s so that such abusers, if there are more, trigger warning but don't crash the machine.

2012-12-01workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delayTejun Heo
8376fe22c7 ("workqueue: implement mod_delayed_work[_on]()") implemented mod_delayed_work[_on]() using the improved try_to_grab_pending(). The function is later used, among others, to replace [__]candel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work() combinations. Unfortunately, a delayed_work item w/ zero @delay is handled slightly differently by mod_delayed_work_on() compared to queue_delayed_work_on(). The latter skips timer altogether and directly queues it using queue_work_on() while the former schedules timer which will expire on the closest tick. This means, when @delay is zero, that [__]cancel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work_on() makes the target item immediately executable while mod_delayed_work_on() may induce delay of upto a full tick. This somewhat subtle difference breaks some of the converted users. e.g. block queue plugging uses delayed_work for deferred processing and uses mod_delayed_work_on() when the queue needs to be immediately unplugged. The above problem manifested as noticeably higher number of context switches under certain circumstances. The difference in behavior was caused by missing special case handling for 0 delay in mod_delayed_work_on() compared to queue_delayed_work_on(). Joonsoo Kim posted a patch to add it - ("workqueue: optimize mod_delayed_work_on() when @delay == 0")[1]. The patch was queued for 3.8 but it was described as optimization and I missed that it was a correctness issue. As both queue_delayed_work_on() and mod_delayed_work_on() use __queue_delayed_work() for queueing, it seems that the better approach is to move the 0 delay special handling to the function instead of duplicating it in mod_delayed_work_on(). Fix the problem by moving 0 delay special case handling from queue_delayed_work_on() to __queue_delayed_work(). This replaces Joonsoo's patch.

2012-11-30ring-buffer: Fix race between integrity check and readersSteven Rostedt
The function rb_check_pages() was added to make sure the ring buffer's pages were sane. This check is done when the ring buffer size is modified as well as when the iterator is released (closing the "trace" file), as that was considered a non fast path and a good place to do a sanity check. The problem is that the check does not have any locks around it. If one process were to read the trace file, and another were to read the raw binary file, the check could happen while the reader is reading the file. The issues with this is that the check requires to clear the HEAD page before doing the full check and it restores it afterward. But readers require the HEAD page to exist before it can read the buffer, otherwise it gives a nasty warning and disables the buffer. By adding the reader lock around the check, this keeps the race from happening. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.6 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-11-30ring-buffer: Fix NULL pointer if rb_set_head_page() failsSteven Rostedt
The function rb_set_head_page() searches the list of ring buffer pages for a the page that has the HEAD page flag set. If it does not find it, it will do a WARN_ON(), disable the ring buffer and return NULL, as this should never happen. But if this bug happens to happen, not all callers of this function can handle a NULL pointer being returned from it. That needs to be fixed.

2012-11-30cgroup: warn about broken hierarchies only after css_onlineGlauber Costa
If everything goes right, it shouldn't really matter if we are spitting this warning after css_alloc or css_online. If we fail between then, there are some ill cases where we would previously see the message and now we won't (like if the files fail to be created). I believe it really shouldn't matter: this message is intended in spirit to be shown when creation succeeds, but with insane settings.
