2012-05-11target: Drop incorrect se_lun_acl release for dynamic -> explict ACL conversionNicholas Bellinger
This patch removes some potentially problematic legacy code within core_clear_initiator_node_from_tpg() that was originally intended to release left over se_lun_acl setup during dynamic NodeACL+MappedLUN generate when running with TPG demo-mode operation. Since we now only ever expect to allocate and release se_lun_acl from within target_core_fabric_configfs.c:target_fabric_make_mappedlun() and target_fabric_drop_mappedlun() context respectively, this code for demo-mode release is incorrect and needs to be removed.

2012-05-11mm: raise MemFree by reverting percpu_pagelist_fraction to 0Hugh Dickins
Why is there less MemFree than there used to be? It perturbed a test, so I've just been bisecting linux-next, and now find the offender went upstream yesterday. Commit 93278814d359 "mm: fix division by 0 in percpu_pagelist_fraction()" mistakenly initialized percpu_pagelist_fraction to the sysctl's minimum 8, which leaves 1/8th of memory on percpu lists (on each cpu??); but most of us expect it to be left unset at 0 (and it's not then used as a divisor).

Then, when dd reads the block device, it leads to block_read_full_page being called with buffers that are beyond end of disk, but are marked as mapped. Thus, it would end up submitting read I/O against them, resulting in the errors mentioned above. I fixed the problem by modifying init_page_buffers to only set the buffer mapped if it fell inside of i_size.

2012-05-11batman-adv: avoid temporary routing loops by being strict on forwarded OGMsMarek Lindner
batman-adv would forward OGMs from non-besthops while replacing the the TQ and TTL values with the values from the best hop. In certain corner cases this leads to a temporary routing loop. This patch changes this behavior: Only packets from best next hops are forwarded - TQ and TTL values won't be replaced anymore. However, the protocol needs to rebroadcast OGMs from single hop neighbors regardless of whether or not they are the best hop. To handle this case a new flag is introduced to alert neighboring nodes about the forwarded OGM that is not from my best next hop. It is to be discarded by all nodes except for the one originating the OGM.

2012-05-11KEYS: Add invalidation supportDavid Howells
Add support for invalidating a key - which renders it immediately invisible to further searches and causes the garbage collector to immediately wake up, remove it from keyrings and then destroy it when it's no longer referenced. It's better not to do this with keyctl_revoke() as that marks the key to start returning -EKEYREVOKED to searches when what is actually desired is to have the key refetched. To invalidate a key the caller must be granted SEARCH permission by the key. This may be too strict. It may be better to also permit invalidation if the caller has any of READ, WRITE or SETATTR permission. The primary use for this is to evict keys that are cached in special keyrings, such as the DNS resolver or an ID mapper. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2012-05-11KEYS: Do LRU discard in full keyringsDavid Howells
Do an LRU discard in keyrings that are full rather than returning ENFILE. To perform this, a time_t is added to the key struct and updated by the creation of a link to a key and by a key being found as the result of a search. At the completion of a successful search, the keyrings in the path between the root of the search and the first found link to it also have their last-used times updated. Note that discarding a link to a key from a keyring does not necessarily destroy the key as there may be references held by other places. An alternate discard method that might suffice is to perform FIFO discard from the keyring, using the spare 2-byte hole in the keylist header as the index of the next link to be discarded. This is useful when using a keyring as a cache for DNS results or foreign filesystem IDs. This can be tested by the following. As root do: echo 1000 >/proc/sys/kernel/keys/root_maxkeys kr=`keyctl newring foo @s` for ((i=0; i<2000; i++)); do keyctl add user a$i a $kr; done Without this patch ENFILE should be reported when the keyring fills up. With this patch, the keyring discards keys in an LRU fashion. Note that the stored LRU time has a granularity of 1s. After doing this, /proc/key-users can be observed and should show that most of the 2000 keys have been discarded: [root@andromeda ~]# cat /proc/key-users 0: 517 516/516 513/1000 5249/20000 The "513/1000" here is the number of quota-accounted keys present for this user out of the maximum permitted. In /proc/keys, the keyring shows the number of keys it has and the number of slots it has allocated: [root@andromeda ~]# grep foo /proc/keys 200c64c4 I--Q-- 1 perm 3b3f0000 0 0 keyring foo: 509/509 The maximum is (PAGE_SIZE - header) / key pointer size. That's typically 509 on a 64-bit system and 1020 on a 32-bit system. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2012-05-11KEYS: Permit in-place link replacement in keyring listDavid Howells
Make use of the previous patch that makes the garbage collector perform RCU synchronisation before destroying defunct keys. Key pointers can now be replaced in-place without creating a new keyring payload and replacing the whole thing as the discarded keys will not be destroyed until all currently held RCU read locks are released. If the keyring payload space needs to be expanded or contracted, then a replacement will still need allocating, and the original will still have to be freed by RCU. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2012-05-11KEYS: Perform RCU synchronisation on keys prior to key destructionDavid Howells
Make the keys garbage collector invoke synchronize_rcu() prior to destroying keys with a zero usage count. This means that a key can be examined under the RCU read lock in the safe knowledge that it won't get deallocated until after the lock is released - even if its usage count becomes zero whilst we're looking at it. This is useful in keyring search vs key link. Consider a keyring containing a link to a key. That link can be replaced in-place in the keyring without requiring an RCU copy-and-replace on the keyring contents without breaking a search underway on that keyring when the displaced key is released, provided the key is actually destroyed only after the RCU read lock held by the search algorithm is released. This permits __key_link() to replace a key without having to reallocate the key payload. A key gets replaced if a new key being linked into a keyring has the same type and description.

2012-05-11KEYS: Use the compat keyctl() syscall wrapper on Sparc64 for Sparc32 compatDavid Howells
Use the 32-bit compat keyctl() syscall wrapper on Sparc64 for Sparc32 binary compatibility. Without this, keyctl(KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE_IOV) is liable to malfunction as it uses an iovec array read from userspace - though the kernel should survive this as it checks pointers and sizes anyway. I think all the other keyctl() function should just work, provided (a) the top 32-bits of each 64-bit argument register are cleared prior to invoking the syscall routine, and the 32-bit address space is right at the 0-end of the 64-bit address space. Most of the arguments are 32-bit anyway, and so for those clearing is not required. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com cc: "David S.

2012-05-11GFS2: Add rgrp information to block_alloc trace pointBob Peterson
This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today. Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works. We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words, we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations that are taking place.

2012-05-10codel: Controlled Delay AQMEric Dumazet
An implementation of CoDel AQM, from Kathleen Nichols and Van Jacobson. http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2209336 This AQM main input is no longer queue size in bytes or packets, but the delay packets stay in (FIFO) queue. As we don't have infinite memory, we still can drop packets in enqueue() in case of massive load, but mean of CoDel is to drop packets in dequeue(), using a control law based on two simple parameters : target : target sojourn time (default 5ms) interval : width of moving time window (default 100ms) Based on initial work from Dave Taht. Refactored to help future codel inclusion as a plugin for other linux qdisc (FQ_CODEL, ...), like RED. include/net/codel.h contains codel algorithm as close as possible than Kathleen reference. net/sched/sch_codel.c contains the linux qdisc specific glue. Separate structures permit a memory efficient implementation of fq_codel (to be sent as a separate work) : Each flow has its own struct codel_vars. timestamps are taken at enqueue() time with 1024 ns precision, allowing a range of 2199 seconds in queue, and 100Gb links support. iproute2 uses usec as base unit. Selected packets are dropped, unless ECN is enabled and packets can get ECN mark instead. Tested from 2Mb to 10Gb speeds with no particular problems, on ixgbe and tg3 drivers (BQL enabled). Usage: tc qdisc ... codel [ limit PACKETS ] [ target TIME ] [ interval TIME ] [ ecn ] qdisc codel 10: parent 1:1 limit 2000p target 3.0ms interval 60.0ms ecn Sent 13347099587 bytes 8815805 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) rate 202365Kbit 16708pps backlog 113550b 75p requeues 0 count 116 lastcount 98 ldelay 4.3ms dropping drop_next 816us maxpacket 1514 ecn_mark 84399 drop_overlimit 0 CoDel must be seen as a base module, and should be used keeping in mind there is still a FIFO queue. So a typical setup will probably need a hierarchy of several qdiscs and packet classifiers to be able to meet whatever constraints a user might have. One possible example would be to use fq_codel, which combines Fair Queueing and CoDel, in replacement of sfq / sfq_red.

2012-05-10net_sched: update bstats in dequeue()Eric Dumazet
Class bytes/packets stats can be misleading because they are updated in enqueue() while packet might be dropped later. We already fixed all qdiscs but sch_atm. This patch makes the final cleanup. class rate estimators can now match qdisc ones. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-05-10etherdevice.h: Add ether_addr_equal_64bitsJoe Perches
Add an optimized boolean function to check if 2 ethernet addresses are the same. This is to avoid any confusion about compare_ether_addr_64bits returning an unsigned, and not being able to use the compare_ether_addr_64bits function for sorting ala memcmp.

2012-05-10be2net: avoid disabling sriov while VFs are assignedSathya Perla
Calling pci_disable_sriov() while VFs are assigned to VMs causes kernel panic. This patch uses PCI_DEV_FLAGS_ASSIGNED bit state of the VF's pci_dev to avoid this. Also, the unconditional function reset cmd issued on a PF probe can delete the VF configuration for the previously enabled VFs. A scratchpad register is now used to issue a function reset only when needed (i.e., in a crash dump scenario.) Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-05-10bonding: don't increase rx_dropped after processing LACPDUsJiri Bohac
Since commit 3aba891d, bonding processes LACP frames (802.3ad mode) with bond_handle_frame(). Currently a copy of the skb is made and the original is left to be processed by other rx_handlers and the rest of the network stack by returning RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER. As there is no protocol handler for PKT_TYPE_LACPDU, the frame is dropped and dev->rx_dropped increased. Fix this by making bond_handle_frame() return RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED if bonding has processed the LACP frame. Signed-off-by: Jiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-05-10l2tp: fix data packet sequence number handlingJames Chapman
If enabled, L2TP data packets have sequence numbers which a receiver can use to drop out of sequence frames or try to reorder them. The first frame has sequence number 0, but the L2TP code currently expects it to be 1. This results in the first data frame being handled as out of sequence. This one-line patch fixes the problem.
