This patch will add the msgbuf protocol. This protocol is used by
the soon to be added new bus interface PCIe. Msgbuf is a protocol
where most data is and remains located on the host (driver) side
and transferred by DMA from and to device. Msgbuf is the protocol
which takes care of the signalling of the buffers between host and
device which identifies this DMA-able data.

The soon to be added protocol msgbuf requires information about
interface addressing mode and peer deletion. This patch adds the
necessary APIs to proto, implements dummy functions in BCDC and
adds calls to proto wherever necessary by wl_cfg80211.

Commit "c1b2053 brcmfmac: Make firmware path a module parameter"
introduced use of strcpy and strcat. The strcpy and strcat require
using null terminated strings and can cause out-of-bounds memory
access and subsequent corruption. This patch replaces these by
strncpy and strncat respectively to assure array boundaries are
not crossed.

Correct typo in the name of the type given to sizeof. Because it is the
size of a pointer that is wanted, the typo has no impact on compilation or
execution.
This problem was found using Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/). The
semantic patch used can be found in message 0 of this patch series.

On platforms with sizeof(int) < sizeof(long), writing a temperature
limit larger than MAXINT will result in unpredictable limit values
written to the chip.
Clamp the input values to the supported limits first to fix the problem.
For set_temp_hyst:
As Guenter pointed out that the temperature is read as unsigned and stored in
an unsigned long. This is wrong; nothing in the datasheet suggests that the
value (the absolute temperature) must be positive.
So change it to signed.

This has been run through Intel's LKP tests across a wide range
of modern sytems and workloads and it wasn't shown to make a
measurable performance difference positive or negative.
Now that we have some shiny new tracepoints, we can actually
figure out what the heck is going on.
During a kernel compile, 60% of the flush_tlb_mm_range() calls
are for a single page. It breaks down like this:

We get in to dimishing returns pretty quickly. On pre-IvyBridge
CPUs, we used to set the limit at 8 pages, and it was set at 128
on IvyBrige. That 128 number looks pretty silly considering that
less than 0.5% of the flushes are that large.
The previous code tried to size this number based on the size of
the TLB. Good idea, but it's error-prone, needs maintenance
(which it didn't get up to now), and probably would not matter in
practice much.
Settting it to 33 means that we cover the mallopt
M_TRIM_THRESHOLD, which is the most universally common size to do
flushes.
That's the short version. Here's the long one for why I chose 33:
1. These numbers have a constant bias in the timestamps from the
tracing. Probably counts for a couple hundred cycles in each of
these tests, but it should be fairly _even_ across all of them.
The smallest delta between the tracepoints I have ever seen is
335 cycles. This is one reason the cycles/page cost goes down in
general as the flushes get larger. The true cost is nearer to
100 cycles.
2. A full flush is more expensive than a single invlpg, but not
by much (single percentages).
3. A dtlb miss is 17.1ns (~45 cycles) and a itlb miss is 13.0ns
(~34 cycles). At those rates, refilling the 512-entry dTLB takes
22,000 cycles.
4. 22,000 cycles is approximately the equivalent of doing 85
invlpg operations. But, the odds are that the TLB can
actually be filled up faster than that because TLB misses that
are close in time also tend to leverage the same caches.
6. ~98% of flushes are <=33 pages. There are a lot of flushes of
33 pages, probably because libc's M_TRIM_THRESHOLD is set to
128k (32 pages)
7. I've found no consistent data to support changing the IvyBridge
vs. SandyBridge tunable by a factor of 16
I used the performance counters on this hardware (IvyBridge i5-3320M)
to figure out the tlb miss costs:
ocperf.py stat -e dtlb_load_misses.walk_duration,dtlb_load_misses.walk_completed,dtlb_store_misses.walk_duration,dtlb_store_misses.walk_completed,itlb_misses.walk_duration,itlb_misses.walk_completed,itlb.itlb_flush
7,720,030,970 dtlb_load_misses_walk_duration [57.13%]
169,856,353 dtlb_load_misses_walk_completed [57.15%]
708,832,859 dtlb_store_misses_walk_duration [57.17%]
19,346,823 dtlb_store_misses_walk_completed [57.17%]
2,779,687,402 itlb_misses_walk_duration [57.15%]
82,241,148 itlb_misses_walk_completed [57.13%]
770,717 itlb_itlb_flush [57.11%]
Show that a dtlb miss is 17.1ns (~45 cycles) and a itlb miss is 13.0ns
(~34 cycles). At those rates, refilling the 512-entry dTLB takes
22,000 cycles. On a SandyBridge system with more cores and larger
caches, those are dtlb=13.4ns and itlb=9.5ns.
cat perf.stat.txt | perl -pe 's/,//g'
| awk '/itlb_misses_walk_duration/ { icyc+=$1 }
/itlb_misses_walk_completed/ { imiss+=$1 }
/dtlb_.*_walk_duration/ { dcyc+=$1 }
/dtlb_.*.*completed/ { dmiss+=$1 }
END {print "itlb cyc/miss: ", icyc/imiss, " dtlb cyc/miss: ", dcyc/dmiss, " ----- ", icyc,imiss, dcyc,dmiss }
On Westmere CPUs, the counters to use are: itlb_flush,itlb_misses.walk_cycles,itlb_misses.any,dtlb_misses.walk_cycles,dtlb_misses.any
The assumptions that this code went in under:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/12/119 say that a flush and a refill are
about 100ns. Being generous, that is over by a factor of 6 on the
refill side, although it is fairly close on the cost of an invlpg.
An increase of a single invlpg operation seems to lengthen the flush
range operation by about 200 cycles. Here is one example of the data
collected for flushing 10 and 11 pages (full data are below):
10: 0.43% 93.90% avg cycles: 3570 cycles/page: 357 samples: 4714
11: 0.20% 94.10% avg cycles: 3767 cycles/page: 342 samples: 2145
How to generate this table:
echo 10000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
echo x86-tsc > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_clock
echo 'reason != 0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/filter
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/enable
Pipe the trace output in to this script:
http://sr71.net/~dave/intel/201402-tlb/trace-time-diff-process.pl.txt
Note that these data were gathered with the invlpg threshold set to
150 pages. Only data points with >=50 of samples were printed:

Here are the tlb counters during a 10-second slice of a kernel compile
for a SandyBridge system. It's better than IvyBridge, but probably
due to the larger caches since this was one of the 'X' extreme parts.

Most of the logic here is in the documentation file. Please take
a look at it.
I know we've come full-circle here back to a tunable, but this
new one is *WAY* simpler. I challenge anyone to describe in one
sentence how the old one worked. Here's the way the new one
works:
If we are flushing more pages than the ceiling, we use

We don't have any good way to figure out what kinds of flushes
are being attempted. Right now, we can try to use the vm
counters, but those only tell us what we actually did with the
hardware (one-by-one vs full) and don't tell us what was actually
_requested_.
This allows us to select out "interesting" TLB flushes that we
might want to optimize (like the ranged ones) and ignore the ones
that we have very little control over (the ones at context
switch).

There are currently three paths through the remote flush code:
1. full invalidation
2. single page invalidation using invlpg
3. ranged invalidation using invlpg
This takes 2 and 3 and combines them in to a single path by
making the single-page one just be the start and end be start
plus a single page. This makes placement of our tracepoint easier.

If we take the
if (end == TLB_FLUSH_ALL || vmflag & VM_HUGETLB) {
local_flush_tlb();
goto out;
}
path out of flush_tlb_mm_range(), we will have flushed the tlb,
but not incremented NR_TLB_LOCAL_FLUSH_ALL. This unifies the
way out of the function so that we always take a single path when
doing a full tlb flush.

I think the flush_tlb_mm_range() code that tries to tune the
flush sizes based on the CPU needs to get ripped out for
several reasons:
1. It is obviously buggy. It uses mm->total_vm to judge the
task's footprint in the TLB. It should certainly be using
some measure of RSS, *NOT* ->total_vm since only resident
memory can populate the TLB.
2. Haswell, and several other CPUs are missing from the
intel_tlb_flushall_shift_set() function. Thus, it has been
demonstrated to bitrot quickly in practice.
3. It is plain wrong in my vm:
[ 0.037444] Last level iTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0
[ 0.037444] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0
[ 0.037444] tlb_flushall_shift: 6
Which leads to it to never use invlpg.
4. The assumptions about TLB refill costs are wrong:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1337782555-8088-3-git-send-email-alex.shi@intel.com
(more on this in later patches)
5. I can not reproduce the original data: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
I believe the sample times were too short. Running the
benchmark in a loop yields times that vary quite a bit.
Note that this leaves us with a static ceiling of 1 page. This
is a conservative, dumb setting, and will be revised in a later
patch.
This also removes the code which attempts to predict whether we
are flushing data or instructions. We expect instruction flushes
to be relatively rare and not worth tuning for explicitly.

it ends up at two different indentation levels. This eliminates
one of the the copy-n-paste versions. It also gives us a unified

Th AF_ALG socket was missing a security label (e.g. SELinux)
which means that socket was in "unlabeled" state.
This was recently demonstrated in the cryptsetup package
(cryptsetup v1.6.5 and later.)
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1115120
This patch clones the sock's label from the parent sock

A VCPU might never stop if it intercepts (for whatever reason) between
"fake interrupt delivery" and execution of the stop function.
Heart of the problem is that SIGP STOP is an interrupt that has to be
processed on every SIE entry until the VCPU finally executes the stop
function.
This problem was made apparent by commit 7dfc63cf977447e09b1072911c2
(KVM: s390: allow only one SIGP STOP (AND STORE STATUS) at a time).
With the old code, the guest could (incorrectly) inject SIGP STOPs
multiple times. The bug of losing a sigp stop exists in KVM before
7dfc63cf97, but it was hidden by Linux guests doing a sigp stop loop.
The new code (rightfully) returns CC=2 and does not queue a new
interrupt.
This patch is a simple fix of the problem. Longterm we are going to
rework that code - e.g. get rid of the action bits and so on.

Temperature limit register writes did not account for negative numbers.
As a result, writing -127000 resulted in -126000 written into the
temperature limit register. This problem affected temp[1-3]_min,
temp[1-3]_max, temp[1-3]_auto_temp_crit, and temp[1-3]_auto_temp_min.
When writing pwm[1-3]_freq, a long variable was auto-converted into an int
without range check. Wiring values larger than MAXINT resulted in unexpected
register values.
When writing temp[1-3]_auto_temp_max, an unsigned long variable was
auto-converted into an int without range check. Writing values larger than
MAXINT resulted in unexpected register values.
vrm is an u8, so the written value needs to be limited to [0, 255].

net: libphy: Add phy specific functions to access mmd regs
This set of patches addresses a problem found with the Micrel ksz9021 phy and
libphy, where the ksz9021 phy does not support mmd extended register access
per the IEEE specification as assumed by libphy. The first patch adds a
framework for phy specific support to specify their own function to access
extended phy registers, return a failure code if not supported, or to default
to libphy's IEEE defined method for accessing the mmd extended phy registers.
This issue was found by using the Synopsys EMAC and a Micrel ksz9021 phy on the
Altera Cyclone 5 SOC development kit. This patch was tested on the same system
in both positive and negative test cases.
V5: Revert name of mmd register access functions, check for phy specific
driver override functions in mmd register access functions per
Florian's comments to minimize source code changes
V4: Correct error when formatting V3 patch - erroneous text cut from code
V3: Correct formatting of function arguments, remove return statement from
NULL functions, and add patch for PHY driver documentation per review
comments.
V2: Split the original patch submission into seperate patches for the libphy
framework required for the modification and for the Micrel Phy.

The Micrel ksz9021 PHY does not support standard IEEE standard MMD
extended register access, therefore requires stubs to fail the read
register method and do nothing for the write register method when
libphy attempts to read and/or configure Energy Efficient Ethernet
features in PHYS that do support those features. This problem
was observed on an Altera Cyclone V SOC development kit that
uses the Synopsys EMAC and the Micrel ksz9021 PHY. This patch
was tested on the same board, and Energy Efficient Ethernet is
now disabled as expected since the Micrel PHY does not support that
feature.

libphy was originally written assuming all phy devices support clause 45
access extensions to the mmd registers through the indirection registers
located within the first 16 phy registers. This assumption is not true
in all cases, and one specific example is the Micrel ksz9021 10/100/1000
Mbps phy. Using the stmmac driver, accessing the mmd registers to query
and configure energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) features yielded unexpected
behavior.
This patch adds mmd access functions to the phy driver that can be
overriden by the phy specific driver if the phy does not support this
mechanism or uses it's own non-standard access mechanism. By default,
the IEEE Compatible clause 45 access mechanism described in clause 22
is used. With this patch, EEE query/configure functions as expected
using the stmmac and the Micrel ksz9021 phy.

sk_unattached_filter_destroy() does not always need to release the
filter object via rcu. Since this filter is never attached to the
socket, the caller should be responsible for releasing the filter
in a safe way, which may not necessarily imply rcu.
This is a short summary of clients of this function:
1) xt_bpf.c and cls_bpf.c use the bpf matchers from rules, these rules
are removed from the packet path before the filter is released. Thus,
the framework makes sure the filter is safely removed.
2) In the ppp driver, the ppp_lock ensures serialization between the
xmit and filter attachment/detachment path. This doesn't use rcu
so deferred release via rcu makes no sense.
3) In the isdn/ppp driver, it is called from isdn_ppp_release()
the isdn_ppp_ioctl(). This driver uses mutex and spinlocks, no rcu.
Thus, deferred rcu makes no sense to me either, the deferred releases
may be just masking the effects of wrong locking strategy, which
should be fixed in the driver itself.
4) In the team driver, this is the only place where the rcu
synchronization with unattached filter is used. Therefore, this
patch introduces synchronize_rcu() which is called from the
genetlink path to make sure the filter doesn't go away while packets
are still walking over it. I think we can revisit this once struct
bpf_prog (that only wraps specific bpf code bits) is in place, then
add some specific struct rcu_head in the scope of the team driver if
Jiri thinks this is needed.
Deferred rcu release for unattached filters was originally introduced
in 302d663 ("filter: Allow to create sk-unattached filters").

The recent commit "e29aa33 bna: Enable Multi Buffer RX" is causing
a performance regression. It does not properly update 'cmpl' pointer
at the end of the loop in NAPI handler bnad_cq_process(). The result is
only one packet / per NAPI-schedule is processed.

As part of changing rates to KR mode, KR training is initiated. If
the KR training is restarted it is possible to enter an invalid logic
state. This can be avoided by asserting a training reset bit before
initiating the KR training and then clearing the training reset bit.

Currently, the logic will loop endlessly waiting for a rate change
to complete. Add a counter so that if the rate change signals
never indicate complete the loop will eventually exit.
