2012-10-08cpufreq: OMAP: ensure valid clock rate before scalingKevin Hilman
Ensure the clock rate that will be used is a valid one before attempting to scale the voltage. Currently the driver assumes it has a valid frequency from the OPP table, but boards using different system oscillators might not have exact matches with the OPP table, and result in a failing call to clk_set_rate(). This is particularily bad because the voltage may be scaled even though the frequency is not. This will obviously lead to some unpredictable behavior, especially if the frequency is high and the voltage is dropped. Thanks to Joni Lapilainen for reporting crashes seen on 3430/n900.

2012-10-09exec: make de_thread() killableOleg Nesterov
Change de_thread() to use KILLABLE rather than UNINTERRUPTIBLE while waiting for other threads. The only complication is that we should clear ->group_exit_task and ->notify_count before we return, and we should do this under tasklist_lock. -EAGAIN is used to match the initial signal_group_exit() check/return, it doesn't really matter. This fixes the (unlikely) race with coredump. de_thread() checks signal_group_exit() before it starts to kill the subthreads, but this can't help if another CLONE_VM (but non CLONE_THREAD) task starts the coredumping after de_thread() unlocks ->siglock. In this case the killed sub-thread can block in exit_mm() waiting for coredump_finish(), execing thread waits for that sub-thead, and the coredumping thread waits for execing thread. Deadlock.

2012-10-08ipvs: fix ARP resolving for direct routing modeJulian Anastasov
After the change "Make neigh lookups directly in output packet path" (commit a263b30936) IPVS can not reach the real server for DR mode because we resolve the destination address from IP header, not from route neighbour. Use the new FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH flag to request output routes with known nexthop, so that it has preference on resolving. Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-10-08ipv4: Add FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NHJulian Anastasov
Add flag to request that output route should be returned with known rt_gateway, in case we want to use it as nexthop for neighbour resolving. The returned route can be cached as follows: - in NH exception: because the cached routes are not shared with other destinations - in FIB NH: when using gateway because all destinations for NH share same gateway As last option, to return rt_gateway!=0 we have to set DST_NOCACHE.

2012-10-08ipv4: introduce rt_uses_gatewayJulian Anastasov
Add new flag to remember when route is via gateway. We will use it to allow rt_gateway to contain address of directly connected host for the cases when DST_NOCACHE is used or when the NH exception caches per-destination route without DST_NOCACHE flag, i.e. when routes are not used for other destinations. By this way we force the neighbour resolving to work with the routed destination but we can use different address in the packet, feature needed for IPVS-DR where original packet for virtual IP is routed via route to real IP.

2012-10-08ipv4: fix sending of redirectsJulian Anastasov
After "Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops" (commit d2d68ba9fe) and "Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible" (commit 7a9bc9b81a) we can not send ICMP redirects. It seems we should not cache the RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag in nh_rth_input because the same fib_info can be used for traffic that is not redirected, eg. from other input devices or from sources that are not in same subnet. As result, we have to disable the caching of RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag and to force source validation for the case when forwarding traffic to the input device. If traffic comes from directly connected source we allow redirection as it was done before both changes. Avoid setting RTCF_DOREDIRECT if IN_DEV_TX_REDIRECTS is disabled, this can avoid source address validation and to help caching the routes. After the change "Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway" (commit f8126f1d51) we should make sure our ICMP_REDIR_HOST messages contain daddr instead of 0.0.0.0 when target is directly connected.

memblock_steal tries to reserve physical memory during boot. When the requested size is not aligned on the section size then, the remaining memory available for lowmem becomes unaligned on the section boundary. There is a issue with this, which is discussed in the thread below. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/28/112 The final conclusion from the thread seems to be align the memblock_steal calls on the SECTION boundary.

2012-10-08vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocolsFlorian Zumbiehl
6a32e4f9dd9219261f8856f817e6655114cfec2f made the vlan code skip marking vlan-tagged frames for not locally configured vlans as PACKET_OTHERHOST if there was an rx_handler, as the rx_handler could cause the frame to be received on a different (virtual) vlan-capable interface where that vlan might be configured. As rx_handlers do not necessarily return RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, this could cause frames for unknown vlans to be delivered to the protocol stack as if they had been received untagged. For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached, macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those are completely unusable on the underlying interface. The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards, before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether there is an rx_handler or not.

2012-10-08net: gro: selective flush of packetsEric Dumazet
Current GRO can hold packets in gro_list for almost unlimited time, in case napi->poll() handler consumes its budget over and over. In this case, napi_complete()/napi_gro_flush() are not called. Another problem is that gro_list is flushed in non friendly way : We scan the list and complete packets in the reverse order. (youngest packets first, oldest packets last) This defeats priorities that sender could have cooked. Since GRO currently only store TCP packets, we dont really notice the bug because of retransmits, but this behavior can add unexpected latencies, particularly on mice flows clamped by elephant flows. This patch makes sure no packet can stay more than 1 ms in queue, and only in stress situations. It also complete packets in the right order to minimize latencies.

2012-10-08rcu: Grace-period initialization excludes only RCU notifierPaul E. McKenney

Deadlock is not an appropriate diagnostic for excessive CPU-hotplug latency. Fortunately, grace-period initialization does not actually need to exclude all of the CPU-hotplug operation, but rather only RCU's own CPU_UP_PREPARE and CPU_DEAD CPU-hotplug notifiers. This commit therefore introduces a new per-rcu_state onoff_mutex that provides the required concurrency control in place of the get_online_cpus() that was previously in rcu_gp_init().

Pull UBI fastmap changes from Artem Bityutskiy: "This pull request contains the UBI fastmap support implemented by Richard Weinberger from Linutronix. Fastmap is designed to address UBI's slow scanning issues. Namely, it introduces a new on-flash data-structure called "fastmap", which stores the information about logical<->physical eraseblocks mappings. So now to get this information just read the fastmap, instead of doing full scan. More information here can be found in Richard's announcement in LKML (Subject: UBI: Fastmap request for inclusion (v19)): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1364922/focus=1369109 One thing I want to explicitly say is that fastmap did not have large enough linux-next exposure. It is partially my fault - I did not respond quickly enough. I _really_ apologize for this. But it had good testing and disabled by default, so I do not expect that we'll break anything. Fastmap is declared as experimental so far, and it is off by default. We did declare that the on-flash format may be changed. The reason for this is that no one used it in real production so far, so there is a high risk that something is missing. Besides, we do not have user-space tools supporting fastmap so far. Nevertheless, I suggest we merge this feature. Many people want UBI's scanning bottleneck to be fixed and merging fastmap now should accelerate its production use. The plan is to make it bullet-prove, somewhat clean-up, and make it the default for UBI. I do not know how many kernel releases will it take.
