2013-10-28mac80211_hwsim: Fix tracking of beaconing for multi-vifJouni Malinen
mac80211_hwsim canceled beacon_timer on any vif changing from enabled to disabled beaconing. This breaks cases where there are multiple beaconing vifs and only one of them is removed. Fix this by tracking beaconing status per vif and disable beacon_timer only if no active vif remain with beaconing enabled.

2013-10-28{nl,cfg,mac}80211: implement mesh channel switch userspace APIChun-Yeow Yeoh
Implement the required procedures for mesh channel switching as defined in the IEEE Std 802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 and also handle the CSA and MCSP elements as followed: * Add the function for updating the beacon and probe response frames with CSA and MCSP elements during the period of switching to the new channel. Both CSA and MCSP elements must be included in beacon and probe response frames until the intended channel switch time. * The ifmsh->csa_settings is set to NULL and the CSA and MCSP elements will then be removed from the beacon or probe response frames once the new channel is switched to.

2013-10-28{nl,cfg,mac}80211: enable the triggering of CSA frame in meshChun-Yeow Yeoh
Allow the triggering of CSA frame using mesh interface. The rules are more or less same with IBSS, such as not allowed to change between the band and channel width has to be same from the previous mode. Also, move the ieee80211_send_action_csa to a common space so that it can be re-used by mesh interface.

Process the CSA frame according to the procedures define in IEEE Std 802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 as follow: * The mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP) must be availabe. * If the MCSP's TTL is 1, drop the frame but still process the CSA. * If the MCSP's precedence value is less than or equal to the current precedence value, drop the frame and do not process the CSA. * The CSA frame is forwarded after TTL is decremented by 1 and the initiator field is set to 0. Transmit restrict field and others are maintained as is. * No beacon or probe response frame are handled here. Also, introduce the debug message used for mesh CSA purpose.

2013-10-28mac80211: fixes for mesh powersave logicMarco Porsch
This patch fixes errors in the mesh powersave logic which cause that remote peers do not get peer power mode change notifications and mesh peer service periods (MPSPs) got stuck. When closing a peer link, set the (now invalid) peer-specific power mode to 'unknown'. Avoid overhead when local power mode is unchanged. Reliably clear MPSP flags on peering status update. Avoid MPSP flags getting stuck by not requesting a further MPSP ownership if we already are an MPSP owner.

2013-10-28nl80211/cfg80211: enable DFS for IBSS modeSimon Wunderlich
To use DFS in IBSS mode, userspace is required to react to radar events. It can inform nl80211 that it is capable of doing so by adding a NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS attribute when joining the IBSS. This attribute is supplied to let the kernelspace know that the userspace application can and will handle radar events, e.g. by intiating channel switches to a valid channel. DFS channels may only be used if this attribute is supplied and the driver supports it. Driver support will be checked even if a channel without DFS will be initially joined, as a DFS channel may be chosen later.

2013-10-28mac80211: implement SMPS for APEmmanuel Grumbach
When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS, we send an action frame to each associated station and reconfigure the channel context / driver. Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored. The beacon isn't updated. The association response will include the original capabilities. Stations that associate while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right after association to inform them about our current state. Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL frames in MIMO anyway. When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g. STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep We remember that they don't know about the change and send the action frame when they wake up. When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g. OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA. uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action frame, but this is for a short period of time.

2013-10-28xfrm: Increase the garbage collector thresholdSteffen Klassert
With the removal of the routing cache, we lost the option to tweak the garbage collector threshold along with the maximum routing cache size. So git commit 703fb94ec ("xfrm: Fix the gc threshold value for ipv4") moved back to a static threshold. It turned out that the current threshold before we start garbage collecting is much to small for some workloads, so increase it from 1024 to 32768. This means that we start the garbage collector if we have more than 32768 dst entries in the system and refuse new allocations if we are above 65536.

Rename 'bool tunnel' to 'bool encap', and add a new boolean to express the fact that UDP should be fragmented. This fragmentation is triggered by skb->encapsulation being set.

2013-10-27tcp: do not rearm RTO when future data are sackedYuchung Cheng
Patch ed08495c3 "tcp: use RTT from SACK for RTO" always re-arms RTO upon obtaining a RTT sample from newly sacked data. But technically RTO should only be re-armed when the data sent before the last (re)transmission of write queue head are (s)acked. Otherwise the RTO may continue to extend during loss recovery on data sent in the future. Note that RTTs from ACK or timestamps do not have this problem, as the RTT source must be from data sent before. The new RTO re-arm policy is 1) Always re-arm RTO if SND.UNA is advanced 2) Re-arm RTO if sack RTT is available, provided the sacked data was sent before the last time write_queue_head was sent.

2013-10-27bridge: netfilter: orphan skb before invoking ip netfilter hooksFlorian Westphal
Pekka Pietikäinen reports xt_socket behavioural change after commit 00028aa37098o (netfilter: xt_socket: use IP early demux). Reason is xt_socket now no longer does an unconditional sk lookup - it re-uses existing skb->sk if possible, assuming ->sk was set by ip early demux. However, when netfilter is invoked via bridge, this can cause 'bogus' sockets to be examined by the match, e.g. a 'tun' device socket. bridge netfilter should orphan the skb just like the routing path before invoking ipv4/ipv6 netfilter hooks to avoid this.

2013-10-27bonding: remove bond read lock for bond_mii_monitor()dingtianhong
The bond slave list may change when the monitor is running, the slave list is no longer protected by bond->lock, only protected by rtnl lock(), so we have 3 ways to modify it: 1.add bond_master_upper_dev_link() and bond_upper_dev_unlink() in bond->lock, but it is unsafe to call call_netdevice_notifiers() in write lock. 2.remove unused bond->lock for monitor function, only use the existing rtnl lock(). 3.use rcu_read_lock() to protect it, of course, it will transform bond_for_each_slave to bond_for_each_slave_rcu() and performance is better, but in slow path, it is ignored. so I remove the bond->lock and move the rtnl lock to protect the whole monitor function.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux Pull parisc fix from Helge Deller: "This is a 2-line patch to save the CPU register which holds our task thread info pointer before calling a firmware function and then to restore it again afterwards. This is necessary because on some 64bit machines the high-order 32bits are being clobbered by the firmware call, and thus we failed to bring up secondary CPUs (and instead crashed the kernel) in some situations eg if we had more than 4GB RAM. This patch fixes a bug which has been since ever in the parisc linux kernel and which prevented some people to use a 64bit kernel" * 'parisc-3.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Do not crash 64bit SMP kernels on machines with >= 4GB RAM
