2012-07-20can: flexcan: add 2nd clock to support imx53 and newerSteffen Trumtrar
This patch adds support for a second clock to the flexcan driver. On modern freescale ARM cores like the imx53 and imx6q two clocks ("ipg" and "per") must be enabled in order to access the CAN core. In the original driver, the clock was requested without specifying the connection id, further all mainline ARM archs with flexcan support (imx28, imx25, imx35) register their flexcan clock without a connection id, too. This patch first renames the existing clk variable to clk_ipg and converts it to devm for easier error handling. The connection id "ipg" is added to the devm_clk_get() call. Then a second clock "per" is requested. As all archs don't specify a connection id, both clk_get return the same clock. This ensures compatibility to existing flexcan support and adds support for imx53 at the same time. After this patch hits mainline, the archs may give their existing flexcan clock the "ipg" connection id and implement a dummy "per" clock. This patch has been tested on imx28 (unmodified clk tree) and on imx53 with a seperate "ipg" and "per" clock.

The policy might have been changed since last call of target(). Thus, using cpufreq_frequency_table_target(), which depends on policy to find the corresponding index from a frequency, may return inconsistent index for freqs.old.

2012-07-20s390/vtimer: rework virtual timer interfaceMartin Schwidefsky
The current virtual timer interface is inherently per-cpu and hard to use. The sole user of the interface is appldata which uses it to execute a function after a specific amount of cputime has been used over all cpus. Rework the virtual timer interface to hook into the cputime accounting. This makes the interface independent from the CPU timer interrupts, and makes the virtual timers global as opposed to per-cpu. Overall the code is greatly simplified. The downside is that the accuracy is not as good as the original implementation, but it is still good enough for appldata.

2012-07-20pnfs-obj: Fix __r4w_get_page when offset is beyond i_sizeBoaz Harrosh
It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then the XOR should be preformed with all zeros. Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't like the kind of bugs this calls for. Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond i_size.

2012-07-20ore: Remove support of partial IO request (NFS crash)Boaz Harrosh
Do to OOM situations the ore might fail to allocate all resources needed for IO of the full request. If some progress was possible it would proceed with a partial/short request, for the sake of forward progress.

2012-07-20ore: Fix NFS crash by supporting any unaligned RAID IOBoaz Harrosh
In RAID_5/6 We used to not permit an IO that it's end byte is not stripe_size aligned and spans more than one stripe. .i.e the caller must check if after submission the actual transferred bytes is shorter, and would need to resubmit a new IO with the remainder. Exofs supports this, and NFS was supposed to support this as well with it's short write mechanism. But late testing has exposed a CRASH when this is used with none-RPC layout-drivers. The change at NFS is deep and risky, in it's place the fix at ORE to lift the limitation is actually clean and simple. So here it is below. The principal here is that in the case of unaligned IO on both ends, beginning and end, we will send two read requests one like old code, before the calculation of the first stripe, and also a new site, before the calculation of the last stripe. If any "boundary" is aligned or the complete IO is within a single stripe. we do a single read like before. The code is clean and simple by splitting the old _read_4_write into 3 even parts: 1._read_4_write_first_stripe 2. _read_4_write_last_stripe 3. _read_4_write_execute And calling 1+3 at the same place as before. 2+3 before last stripe, and in the case of all in a single stripe then 1+2+3 is preformed additively. Why did I not think of it before. Well I had a strike of genius because I have stared at this code for 2 years, and did not find this simple solution, til today. Not that I did not try. This solution is much better for NFS than the previous supposedly solution because the short write was dealt with out-of-band after IO_done, which would cause for a seeky IO pattern where as in here we execute in order. At both solutions we do 2 separate reads, only here we do it within a single IO request. (And actually combine two writes into a single submission) NFS/exofs code need not change since the ORE API communicates the new shorter length on return, what will happen is that this case would not occur anymore. hurray!!

2012-07-20UBIFS: remove invalid reference to list iterator variableJulia Lawall
If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head, and not a meaningful structure. Thus this value should not be used after the end of the iterator. Replace a field access from orphan by NULL in two places. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ identifier c; expression E; iterator name list_for_each_entry; statement S; @@ list_for_each_entry(c,...) { ... when != break; when forall when strict } ... ( c = E | *c ) // </smpl> Artem: fortunately, this did not cause any issues because we iterate the orphan list using the elements count, so we never dereferenced the corrupted pointer.

2012-07-20UBIFS: simplify reply code a bitArtem Bityutskiy
In the log reply code we assume that 'c->lhead_offs' is known and may be non-zero, which is not the case because we do not store it in the master node and have to find out by scanning on every mount.

This patch adds another debugfs knob which switches UBIFS to R/O mode. I needed it while trying to reproduce the 'first log node is not CS node' bug. Without this debugfs knob you have to perform a power cut to repruduce the bug. The knob is named 'ro_error' and all it does is it sets the 'ro_error' UBIFS flag which makes UBIFS disallow any further writes - even write-back will fail with -EROFS. Useful for debugging.

2012-07-20UBIFS: fix a bug in empty space fix-upArtem Bityutskiy
UBIFS has a feature called "empty space fix-up" which is a quirk to work-around limitations of dumb flasher programs. Namely, of those flashers that are unable to skip NAND pages full of 0xFFs while flashing, resulting in empty space at the end of half-filled eraseblocks to be unusable for UBIFS. This feature is relatively new (introduced in v3.0). The fix-up routine (fixup_free_space()) is executed only once at the very first mount if the superblock has the 'space_fixup' flag set (can be done with -F option of mkfs.ubifs). It basically reads all the UBIFS data and metadata and writes it back to the same LEB. The routine assumes the image is pristine and does not have anything in the journal. There was a bug in 'fixup_free_space()' where it fixed up the log incorrectly. All but one LEB of the log of a pristine file-system are empty. And one contains just a commit start node. And 'fixup_free_space()' just unmapped this LEB, which resulted in wiping the commit start node. As a result, some users were unable to mount the file-system next time with the following symptom: UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first log node at LEB 3:0 is not CS node UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: log error detected while replaying the log at LEB 3:0 The root-cause of this bug was that 'fixup_free_space()' wrongly assumed that the beginning of empty space in the log head (c->lhead_offs) was known on mount. However, it is not the case - it was always 0. UBIFS does not store in it the master node and finds out by scanning the log on every mount. The fix is simple - just pass commit start node size instead of 0 to 'fixup_leb()'.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Enable FCoE FSO and CRC offloads based on CAPABLE instead of ENABLED flagAlexander Duyck
Instead of only setting the FCOE segmentation offload and CRC offload flags if we enable FCoE, we could just set them always since there are no modifications needed to the hardware or adapter FCoE structure in order to use these features. The advantage to this is that if FCoE enablement fails, for example because SR-IOV was enabled on 82599, we will still have use of the FCoE segmentation offload and Tx/Rx CRC offloads which should still help to improve the FCoE performance.

The current logic is enabling anti-spoof on all pools and then clearing anti-spoof on just the first PF pool. The correct approach is to only set anti-spoof on the VF pools and to leave all of the PF pools unchecked.

2012-07-19ixgbe: Make FCoE allocation and configuration closer to how rings workAlexander Duyck
This patch changes the behavior of the FCoE configuration so that it is much closer to how the main body of the ixgbe driver works for ring allocation. The first piece is the ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_enable/disable calls. These allocate the percpu values and if successful set the fcoe_ddp_xid value indicating that we can support DDP. The next piece is the ixgbe_setup/free_ddp_resources calls. These are called on open/close and will allocate and free the DMA pools. Finally ixgbe_configure_fcoe is now just register configuration. It can go through and enable the registers for the FCoE redirection offload, and FIP configuration without any interference from the DDP pool allocation. The net result of all this is two fold. First it adds a certain amount of exception handling. So for example if ixgbe_setup_fcoe_resources fails we will actually generate an error in open and refuse to bring up the interface. Secondly it provides a much more graceful failure case than the previous model which would skip setting up the registers for FCoE on failure to allocate DDP resources leaving no Rx functionality enabled instead of just disabling DDP.

This change merges the 2 statistics values for noddp and noddp_ext_buff and the dma_pool into a single structure that can be allocated per CPU. The advantages to this are several fold. First we only need to do one alloc_percpu call now instead of 3, so that means less overhead for handling memory allocation failures. Secondly in the case of ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_setup we only need to call get_cpu once which makes things a bit cleaner since we can drop a put_cpu() from the exception path.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - detecting SYN-data dropsYuchung Cheng
On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options, Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance. The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables Fast Open temporarily. Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but it behaves as connect() then write().

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN)Yuchung Cheng
sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2) and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to send data in the opening SYN packet. For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails. For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect(). Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application should only use this flag on new sockets. The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - sending SYN-dataYuchung Cheng
This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch). The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative, the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations). To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP handshake. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - cookie cacheYuchung Cheng
With help from Eric Dumazet, add Fast Open metrics in tcp metrics cache. The basic ones are MSS and the cookies. Later patch will cache more to handle unfriendly middleboxes.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open baseYuchung Cheng
This patch impelements the common code for both the client and server. 1. TCP Fast Open option processing. Since Fast Open does not have an option number assigned by IANA yet, it shares the experiment option code 254 by implementing draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options with a 16 bits magic number 0xF989. This enables global experiments without clashing the scarce(2) experimental options available for TCP. When the draft status becomes standard (maybe), the client should switch to the new option number assigned while the server supports both numbers for transistion. 2. The new sysctl tcp_fastopen 3.

2012-07-19mlx4_en: map entire pages to increase throughputThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo
In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine. One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver. This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we start the refill. We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were allocated. This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.
