2013-09-30mm/compaction.c: periodically schedule when freeing pagesDavid Rientjes
We've been getting warnings about an excessive amount of time spent allocating pages for migration during memory compaction without scheduling. isolate_freepages_block() already periodically checks for contended locks or the need to schedule, but isolate_freepages() never does. When a zone is massively long and no suitable targets can be found, this iteration can be quite expensive without ever doing cond_resched(). Check periodically for the need to reschedule while the compaction free scanner iterates.

2013-09-30fs/binfmt_elf.c: prevent a coredump with a large vm_map_count from OopsingDan Aloni
A high setting of max_map_count, and a process core-dumping with a large enough vm_map_count could result in an NT_FILE note not being written, and the kernel crashing immediately later because it has assumed otherwise. Reproduction of the oops-causing bug described here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/30/50 Rge ussue originated in commit 2aa362c49c31 ("coredump: extend core dump note section to contain file names of mapped file") from Oct 4, 2012. This patch make that section optional in that case. fill_files_note() should signify the error, and also let the info struct in elf_core_dump() be zero-initialized so that we can check for the optionally written note.

2013-09-30revert "mm/memory-hotplug: fix lowmem count overflow when offline pages"Joonyoung Shim
This reverts commit cea27eb2a202 ("mm/memory-hotplug: fix lowmem count overflow when offline pages"). The fixed bug by commit cea27eb was fixed to another way by commit 3dcc0571cd64 ("mm: correctly update zone->managed_pages"). That commit enhances memory_hotplug.c to adjust totalhigh_pages when hot-removing memory, for details please refer to: http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=136957578620221&w=2 As a result, commit cea27eb2a202 currently causes duplicated decreasing of totalhigh_pages, thus the revert.

2013-09-30ath9k: fix powersave response handling for BA session packetsFelix Fietkau
When a packet is passed from mac80211 to the driver with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE flag set, it bypasses the normal driver internal queueing and goes directly to the UAPSD queue. When that happens, packets that are part of a BlockAck session still need to be tracked as such inside the driver, otherwise it will create discrepancies in the receiver BA reorder window, causing traffic stalls. This only happens in AP mode with powersave-enabled clients.

2013-09-30mwifiex: fix SDIO interrupt lost issueAmitkumar Karwar
601216e "mwifiex: process RX packets in SDIO IRQ thread directly" introduced a command timeout issue which can be reproduced easily on an AM33xx platform using a test application written by Daniel Mack: https://gist.github.com/zonque/6579314 mwifiex_main_process() is called from both the SDIO handler and the workqueue. In case an interrupt occurs right after the int_status check, but before updating the mwifiex_processing flag, this interrupt gets lost, resulting in a command timeout and consequently a card reset. Let main_proc_lock protect both int_status and mwifiex_processing flag. This fixes the interrupt lost issue.

This provides kernel support for creating bitmap ipsets with comment support. As is the case for hashes, this incurs a penalty when flushing or destroying the entire ipset as the entries must first be walked in order to free the comment strings. This penalty is of course far less than the cost of listing an ipset to userspace. Any set created without support for comments will be flushed/destroyed as before.

Enable ipset port set types to match IPv4 package fragments for protocols that doesn't have ports (or the port information isn't supported by ipset). For example this allows a hash:ip,port ipset containing the entry 192.168.0.1,gre:0 to match all package fragments for PPTP VPN tunnels to/from the host. Without this patch only the first package fragment (with fragment offset 0) was matched, while subsequent fragments wasn't. This is not possible for IPv6, where the protocol is in the fragmented part of the package unlike IPv4, where the protocol is in the IP header. IPPROTO_ICMPV6 is deliberately not included, because it isn't relevant for IPv4. Signed-off-by: Anders K. Pedersen <akp@surftown.com> Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu>

Same for IFF_PROMISC and because dev->promiscuity is exported via IFLA_PROMISCUITY, we may send a netlink message after each change of this counter.

2013-09-30ipv6: Fix preferred_lft not updating in some casesPaul Marks
Consider the scenario where an IPv6 router is advertising a fixed preferred_lft of 1800 seconds, while the valid_lft begins at 3600 seconds and counts down in realtime. A client should reset its preferred_lft to 1800 every time the RA is received, but a bug is causing Linux to ignore the update. The core problem is here: if (prefered_lft != ifp->prefered_lft) { Note that ifp->prefered_lft is an offset, so it doesn't decrease over time. Thus, the comparison is always (1800 != 1800), which fails to trigger an update. The most direct solution would be to compute a "stored_prefered_lft", and use that value in the comparison. But I think that trying to filter out unnecessary updates here is a premature optimization. In order for the filter to apply, both of these would need to hold: - The advertised valid_lft and preferred_lft are both declining in real time. - No clock skew exists between the router & client. So in this patch, I've set "update_lft = 1" unconditionally, which allows the surrounding code to be greatly simplified.
