2011-03-15xen network backend driverIan Campbell
netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows. The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback. One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the future. Note that this driver depends on 2e820f58f7ad "xen/irq: implement bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge window: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for cross merging into the net branch.

2011-03-15bonding: Improve syslog message at device creation timePhil Oester
When the bonding module is loaded, it creates bond0 by default. Then, when attempting to create bond0, the following messages are printed to syslog: kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created... kernel: bonding: Bond creation failed. Which seems to indicate a problem, when in reality there is no problem. Since the actual error code is passed down from bond_create, make use of it to print a bit less ominous message: kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created... kernel: bond0 already exists.

2011-03-15bonding: Call netif_carrier_off after register_netdevicePhil Oester
Bringing up a bond interface with all network cables disconnected does not properly set the interface as DOWN because the call to netif_carrier_off occurs too early in bond_init. The call needs to occur after register_netdevice has set dev->reg_state to NETREG_REGISTERED, so that netif_carrier_off will trigger the call to linkwatch_fire_event.

2011-03-15bonding: Incorrect TX queue offsetPhil Oester
When packets come in from a device with >= 16 receive queues headed out a bonding interface, syslog gets filled with this: kernel: bond0 selects TX queue 16, but real number of TX queues is 16 because queue_mapping is offset by 1. Adjust return value to account for the offset. This is a revision of my earlier patch (which did not use the skb_rx_queue_* helpers - thanks to Ben for the suggestion). Andy submitted a similar patch which emits a pr_warning on invalid queue selection, but I believe the log spew is not useful. We can revisit that question in the future, but in the interim I believe fixing the core problem is worthwhile.

2011-03-15net_sched: fix ip_tos2prioDan Siemon
ECN support incorrectly maps ECN BESTEFFORT packets to TC_PRIO_FILLER (1) instead of TC_PRIO_BESTEFFORT (0) This means ECN enabled flows are placed in pfifo_fast/prio low priority band, giving ECN enabled flows [ECT(0) and CE codepoints] higher drop probabilities. This is rather unfortunate, given we would like ECN being more widely used.

2011-03-15VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38Trond Myklebust
The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the appropriate unlink rpc call. Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for whether or not there is a race: - __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent - shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange the dentries in that super block. - have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.

2011-03-15dcache.c: create helper function for duplicated functionalityLinus Torvalds
This creates a helper function for he "try to ascend into the parent directory" case, which was written out in triplicate before. With all the locking and subtle sequence number stuff, we really don't want to duplicate that kind of code. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When the pipe uses aligned-mode data packets, we must reserve 4 bytes instead of 3 for the pipe protocol header. Otherwise the Phonet header would not be aligned, resulting in potentially corrupted headers with later unaligned memory writes.

2011-03-15tidy the trailing symlinks traversal upAl Viro
* pull the handling of current->total_link_count into __do_follow_link() * put the common "do ->put_link() if needed and path_put() the link" stuff into a helper (put_link(nd, link, cookie)) * rename __do_follow_link() to follow_link(), while we are at it Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-03-15Turn resolution of trailing symlinks iterative everywhereAl Viro
The last remaining place (resolution of nested symlink) converted to the loop of the same kind we have in path_lookupat() and path_openat(). Note that we still *do* have a recursion in pathname resolution; can't avoid it, really. However, it's strictly for nested symlinks now - i.e. ones in the middle of a pathname. link_path_walk() has lost the tail now - it always walks everything except the last component. do_follow_link() renamed to nested_symlink() and moved down.

2011-03-15simplify link_path_walk() tailAl Viro
Now that link_path_walk() is called without LOOKUP_PARENT only from do_follow_link(), we can simplify the checks in last component handling. First of all, checking if we'd arrived to a directory is not needed - the caller will check it anyway. And LOOKUP_FOLLOW is guaranteed to be there, since we only get to that place with nd->depth > 0.

2011-03-15pull handling of one pathname component into a helperAl Viro
new helper: walk_component(). Handles everything except symlinks; returns negative on error, 0 on success and 1 on symlinks we decided to follow. Drops out of RCU mode on such symlinks. link_path_walk() and do_last() switched to using that. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
