2010-04-20ath9k: Group Key fix for VAPsDaniel Yingqiang Ma
When I set up multiple VAPs with ath9k, I encountered an issue that the traffic may be lost after a while. The detailed phenomenon is 1. After a while the clients connected to one of these VAPs will get into a state that no broadcast/multicast packets can be transfered successfully while the unicast packets can be transfered normally. 2. Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well, because the ARP entry is expired and it can't be freshed due to the broadcast trouble. It's caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this issue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven't work out a fix yet. I referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k. The method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)'s address, and associated that mac and the group key. It requires the hardware supports multicast frame key search. It seems true for AR9160. Not sure whether it's the correct way to fix this issue. But it seems to work in my test. The patch is attached, feel free to revise it.

2010-04-20rps: consistent rxhashEric Dumazet
In case we compute a software skb->rxhash, we can generate a consistent hash : Its value will be the same in both flow directions. This helps some workloads, like conntracking, since the same state needs to be accessed in both directions. tbench + RFS + this patch gives better results than tbench with default kernel configuration (no RPS, no RFS) Also fixed some sparse warnings.

2010-04-19rmap: add exclusively owned pages to the newest anon_vmaRik van Riel
The recent anon_vma fixes cause many anonymous pages to end up in the parent process anon_vma, even when the page is exclusively owned by the current process. Adding exclusively owned anonymous pages to the top anon_vma reduces rmap scanning overhead, especially in workloads with forking servers. This patch adds a parameter to __page_set_anon_rmap that can be used to indicate whether or not the added page is exclusively owned by the current process. Pages added through page_add_new_anon_rmap are exclusively owned by the current process, and can be added to the top anon_vma. Pages added through page_add_anon_rmap can be either shared or exclusively owned, so we do the conservative thing and add it to the oldest anon_vma. A next step would be to add the exclusive parameter to page_add_anon_rmap, to be used from functions where we do know for sure whether a page is exclusively owned.

2010-04-19mac80211: pass HT changes to driver when off channelReinette Chatre
Since "mac80211: make off-channel work generic" drivers have not been notified of configuration changes after association or authentication. This caused more dependence on current state to ensure driver will be notified when configuration changes occur. One such problem arises if off-channel is in progress when HT information changes. Since HT is only enabled on the "oper_channel" the driver will never be notified of this change. Usually the driver is notified soon after of a BSS information change (BSS_CHANGED_HT) ... but since the driver did not get a notification that this is a HT channel the new BSS information does not make sense. Fix this by also changing the off-channel information when HT is enabled and thus cause driver to be notified correctly. This fixes a problem in 4965 when associated with 5GHz 40MHz channel. Without this patch the system can associate but is unable to transfer any data, not even ping.

2010-04-19rps: shortcut net_rps_action()Eric Dumazet
net_rps_action() is a bit expensive on NR_CPUS=64..4096 kernels, even if RPS is not active. Tom Herbert used two bitmasks to hold information needed to send IPI, but a single LIFO list seems more appropriate. Move all RPS logic into net_rps_action() to cleanup net_rx_action() code (remove two ifdefs) Move rps_remote_softirq_cpus into softnet_data to share its first cache line, filling an existing hole. In a future patch, we could call net_rps_action() from process_backlog() to make sure we send IPI before handling this cpu backlog.

2010-04-19bnx2x: Parity errors handling for 57710 and 57711Vladislav Zolotarov
This patch introduces the parity errors handling code for 57710 and 57711 chips. HW is configured to stop all DMA transactions to the host and sending packets to the network once parity error is detected, which is meant to prevent silent data corruption. At the same time HW generates the attention interrupt to every function of the device where parity has been detected so that driver can start the recovery flow. The recovery is actually resetting the chip and restarting the driver on all active functions of the chip where the parity error has been reported.

2010-04-19ecryptfs: fix use with tmpfs by removing d_drop from ecryptfs_destroy_inodeJeff Mahoney
Since tmpfs has no persistent storage, it pins all its dentries in memory so they have d_count=1 when other file systems would have d_count=0. ->lookup is only used to create new dentries. If the caller doesn't instantiate it, it's freed immediately at dput(). ->readdir reads directly from the dcache and depends on the dentries being hashed. When an ecryptfs mount is mounted, it associates the lower file and dentry with the ecryptfs files as they're accessed. When it's umounted and destroys all the in-memory ecryptfs inodes, it fput's the lower_files and d_drop's the lower_dentries. Commit 4981e081 added this and a d_delete in 2008 and several months later commit caeeeecf removed the d_delete. I believe the d_drop() needs to be removed as well. The d_drop effectively hides any file that has been accessed via ecryptfs from the underlying tmpfs since it depends on it being hashed for it to be accessible. I've removed the d_drop on my development node and see no ill effects with basic testing on both tmpfs and persistent storage. As a side effect, after ecryptfs d_drops the dentries on tmpfs, tmpfs BUGs on umount. This is due to the dentries being unhashed. tmpfs->kill_sb is kill_litter_super which calls d_genocide to drop the reference pinning the dentry. It skips unhashed and negative dentries, but shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree doesn't. Since those dentries still have an elevated d_count, we get a BUG(). This patch removes the d_drop call and fixes both issues.
