Until now, bond_resend_igmp_join_requests() looks for vlans attached to
bonding device, bridge where bonding act as port manually. It does not
care of other scenarios, like stacked bonds or team device above. Make
this more generic and use netdev notifier to propagate the event to
upper devices and to actually call ip_mc_rejoin_groups().

mac80211: cleanup generic suspend/resume procedures
removed check for deleting MONITOR and AP_VLAN when suspend. That can
cause a crash (i.e. in iwlagn_mac_remove_interface()) since we remove

If RTT is not available because Karn's check has failed or no
new packet is acked, use the RTT measured from SACK to estimate
the RTO. The sender can continue to estimate the RTO during loss
recovery or reordering event upon receiving non-partial ACKs.
This also changes when the RTO is re-armed. Previously it is
only re-armed when some data is cummulatively acknowledged (i.e.,
SND.UNA advances), but now it is re-armed whenever RTT estimator
is updated. This feature is particularly useful to reduce spurious
timeout for buffer bloat including cellular carriers [1], and
RTT estimation on reordering events.

Take RTT sample if an ACK selectively acks some sequences that
have never been retransmitted. The Karn's algorithm does not apply
even if that ACK (s)acks other retransmitted sequences, because it
must been generated by an original but perhaps out-of-order packet.
There is no ambiguity. In case when multiple blocks are newly
sacked because of ACK losses the earliest block is used to
measure RTT, similar to cummulative ACKs.
Such RTT samples allow the sender to estimate the RTO during loss
recovery and packet reordering events. It is still useful even with
TCP timestamps. That's because during these events the SND.UNA may
not advance preventing RTT samples from TS ECR (thus the FLAG_ACKED
check before calling tcp_ack_update_rtt()). Therefore this new
RTT source is complementary to existing ACK and TS RTT mechanisms.
This patch does not update the RTO. It is done in the next patch.

Prefer packet timings to TS-ecr for RTT measurements when both
sources are available. That's because broken middle-boxes and remote
peer can return packets with corrupted TS ECR fields. Similarly most
congestion controls that require RTT signals favor timing-based
sources as well. Also check for bad TS ECR values to avoid RTT
blow-ups. It has happened on production Web servers.

The first patch consolidates SYNACK and other RTT measurement to use a
central function tcp_ack_update_rtt(). A (small) bonus is now SYNACK
RTT measurement happens after PAWS check, potentially reducing the
impact of RTO seeding on bad TCP timestamps values.

implement() is setting bytes in LE data stream. In case the data is not
aligned to 64bits, it reads past the allocated buffer. It doesn't really
change any value there (it's properly bitmasked), but in case that this
read past the boundary hits a page boundary, pagefault happens when
accessing 64bits of 'x' in implement(), and kernel oopses.
This happens much more often when numbered reports are in use, as the
initial 8bit skip in the buffer makes the whole process work on values
which are not aligned to 64bits.
This problem dates back to attempts in 2005 and 2006 to make implement()
and extract() as generic as possible, and even back then the problem
was realized by Adam Kroperlin, but falsely assumed to be impossible
to cause any harm:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg47690.html
I have made several attempts at fixing it "on the spot" directly in
implement(), but the results were horrible; the special casing for processing
last 64bit chunk and switching to different math makes it unreadable mess.
I therefore took a path to allocate a few bytes more which will never make
it into final report, but are there as a cushion for all the 64bit math
operations happening in implement() and extract().
All callers of hid_output_report() are converted at the same time to allocate
the buffer by newly introduced hid_alloc_report_buf() helper.
Bruno noticed that the whole raw_size test can be dropped as well, as
hid_alloc_report_buf() makes sure that the buffer is always of a proper
size.

This patch is intended to avoid the buffering to non-assoc mesh STA
and also to avoid the triggering of frame to non-assoc mesh STA which
could cause kernel panic in specific hw.
One of the examples, is kernel panic happens to ath9k if user space
inserts the mesh STA and not proceed with the SAE and AMPE, and later
the same mesh STA is detected again. The sta_state of the mesh STA remains
at IEEE80211_STA_NONE and if the ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup is called
and subsequently the ath_tx_aggr_wakeup, the kernel panic due to
ath_tx_node_init is not called before to initialize the require data
structures.
This issue is reported by Cedric Voncken before.

In commit 48cc32d38a52d0b68f91a171a8d00531edc6a46e
("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols")
Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST
if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this
particular id.
But we also have a problem if prio bits are set.
Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a
vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device,
because skb->vlan_tci is set.
Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000)

0x0030: 2425 2627 2829 2a2b 2c2d 2e2f 3031 3233
It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now.
We can probably do better in future kernels :
vlan_get_ingress_priority() should be a netdev property instead of
a per vlan_dev one.
For stable kernels, lets clear vlan_tci to fix the bugs.

QFQ+ inherits from QFQ a design choice that may cause a high packet
delay/jitter and a severe short-term unfairness. As QFQ, QFQ+ uses a
special quantity, the system virtual time, to track the service
provided by the ideal system it approximates. When a packet is
dequeued, this quantity must be incremented by the size of the packet,
divided by the sum of the weights of the aggregates waiting to be
served. Tracking this sum correctly is a non-trivial task, because, to
preserve tight service guarantees, the decrement of this sum must be
delayed in a special way [1]: this sum can be decremented only after
that its value would decrease also in the ideal system approximated by
QFQ+. For efficiency, QFQ+ keeps track only of the 'instantaneous'
weight sum, increased and decreased immediately as the weight of an
aggregate changes, and as an aggregate is created or destroyed (which,
in its turn, happens as a consequence of some class being
created/destroyed/changed). However, to avoid the problems caused to
service guarantees by these immediate decreases, QFQ+ increments the
system virtual time using the maximum value allowed for the weight
sum, 2^10, in place of the dynamic, instantaneous value. The
instantaneous value of the weight sum is used only to check whether a
request of weight increase or a class creation can be satisfied.
Unfortunately, the problems caused by this choice are worse than the
temporary degradation of the service guarantees that may occur, when a
class is changed or destroyed, if the instantaneous value of the
weight sum was used to update the system virtual time. In fact, the
fraction of the link bandwidth guaranteed by QFQ+ to each aggregate is
equal to the ratio between the weight of the aggregate and the sum of
the weights of the competing aggregates. The packet delay guaranteed
to the aggregate is instead inversely proportional to the guaranteed
bandwidth. By using the maximum possible value, and not the actual
value of the weight sum, QFQ+ provides each aggregate with the worst
possible service guarantees, and not with service guarantees related
to the actual set of competing aggregates. To see the consequences of
this fact, consider the following simple example.
Suppose that only the following aggregates are backlogged, i.e., that
only the classes in the following aggregates have packets to transmit:
one aggregate with weight 10, say A, and ten aggregates with weight 1,
say B1, B2, ..., B10. In particular, suppose that these aggregates are
always backlogged. Given the weight distribution, the smoothest and
fairest service order would be:
A B1 A B2 A B3 A B4 A B5 A B6 A B7 A B8 A B9 A B10 A B1 A B2 ...
QFQ+ would provide exactly this optimal service if it used the actual
value for the weight sum instead of the maximum possible value, i.e.,
11 instead of 2^10. In contrast, since QFQ+ uses the latter value, it
serves aggregates as follows (easy to prove and to reproduce
experimentally):
A B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 B10 A A A A A A A A A A B1 B2 ... B10 A A ...
By replacing 10 with N in the above example, and by increasing N, one
can increase at will the maximum packet delay and the jitter
experienced by the classes in aggregate A.
This patch addresses this issue by just using the above
'instantaneous' value of the weight sum, instead of the maximum
possible value, when updating the system virtual time. After the
instantaneous weight sum is decreased, QFQ+ may deviate from the ideal
service for a time interval in the order of the time to serve one
maximum-size packet for each backlogged class. The worst-case extent
of the deviation exhibited by QFQ+ during this time interval [1] is
basically the same as of the deviation described above (but, without
this patch, QFQ+ suffers from such a deviation all the time). Finally,
this patch modifies the comment to the function qfq_slot_insert, to
make it coherent with the fact that the weight sum used by QFQ+ can
now be lower than the maximum possible value.

Pull phase two of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker:
"With the __cpuinit infrastructure removed earlier, this group of

commit 45f00f99d6e ("ipv4: tcp: clean up tcp_v4_early_demux()") added a
performance regression for non GRO traffic, basically disabling
IP early demux.
IPv6 stack resets transport header in ip6_rcv() before calling
IP early demux in ip6_rcv_finish(), while IPv4 does this only in
ip_local_deliver_finish(), _after_ IP early demux.
GRO traffic happened to enable IP early demux because transport header
is also set in inet_gro_receive()
Instead of reverting the faulty commit, we can make IPv4/IPv6 behave the
same : transport_header should be set in ip_rcv() instead of
ip_local_deliver_finish()
ip_local_deliver_finish() can also use skb_network_header_len() which is
faster than ip_hdrlen()

* the second argument should be a rate length, not a rate array. This
was introduced by my commit "mac80211: select and adjust bitrates
according to channel mode"
* the third argument is not initialized (anymore), making further
checks within this function useless.
Since ieee80211_sta_def_wmm_params() is only used by ibss anyway,
remove the function entirely and handle the operating mode decision
immediately.

This was originally designed to fail when a 40+/40- mode can not be
used, but basic modes (such as 5/10/20 MHz) must be handled
with an error.

Use a chandef instead of just the channel for scanning, and enable
5/10 Mhz scanning for IBSS mode. Also reporting is changed to the new
inform_bss functions.

Some regulations (like germany, but also FCC) express their transmission
power limit in dBm/MHz or mW/MHz. To cope with that and be on the safe
side, reduce the maximum power to half (10 MHz) or quarter (5 MHz)
when operating on these reduced bandwidth channels.

Mandatory rates for 5 and 10 MHz are different from the rates used for

The various components accessing the bitrates table must use consider
the used channel bandwidth to select only available rates or calculate
the bitrate correctly.
There are some rates in reduced bandwidth modes which can't be
represented as multiples of 500kbps, like 2.25 MBit/s in 5 MHz mode. The
standard suggests to round up to the next multiple of 500kbps, just do
that in mac80211 as well.

Wireshark already defines radiotap channel flags for 5 and 10 MHz, so
just use them in Linux radiotap too. Furthermore, add rx status flags to
allow drivers to report when they received data on 5 or 10 MHz channels.

In most cases, host that receives IPv4 and IPv6 multicast/broadcast
packets does not do anything with these packets. Therefore the
reception of these unwanted packets causes unnecessary processing
and power consumption.
Packet coalesce feature helps to reduce number of received
interrupts to host by buffering these packets in firmware/hardware
for some predefined time. Received interrupt will be generated when
one of the following events occur.
a) Expiration of hardware timer whose expiration time is set to
maximum coalescing delay of matching coalesce rule.
b) Coalescing buffer in hardware reaches it's limit.
c) Packet doesn't match any of the configured coalesce rules.
This patch adds set/get configuration support for packet coalesce.
User needs to configure following parameters for creating a coalesce
rule.
a) Maximum coalescing delay
b) List of packet patterns which needs to be matched
c) Condition for coalescence. pattern 'match' or 'no match'
Multiple such rules can be created.
This feature needs to be advertised during driver initialization.
Drivers are supposed to do required firmware/hardware settings based
on user configuration.
