2011-12-06mac80211: accept public action frames with mismatched BSSIDJohannes Berg
Arik's patch "mac80211: allow action frames with unknown BSSID in GO mode" allowed any action frames in P2P mode to go through, but only to cooked monitor interfaces as the IEEE80211_RX_RA_MATCH was still cleared. As a result my no-monitor patches broke invitation responses. Instead of allowing any action frames in P2P GO mode to go through with a wrong BSSID like that patch did, allow all public action frames. They will never be processed by mac80211, but can be reported via nl80211 then. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2011-12-06sched, nohz: Track nr_busy_cpus in the sched_group_powerSuresh Siddha
Introduce nr_busy_cpus in the struct sched_group_power [Not in sched_group because sched groups are duplicated for the SD_OVERLAP scheduler domain] and for each cpu that enters and exits idle, this parameter will be updated in each scheduler group of the scheduler domain that this cpu belongs to. To avoid the frequent update of this state as the cpu enters and exits idle, the update of the stat during idle exit is delayed to the first timer tick that happens after the cpu becomes busy.

2011-12-06perf, core: Rate limit perf_sched_events jump_label patchingGleb Natapov
jump_lable patching is very expensive operation that involves pausing all cpus. The patching of perf_sched_events jump_label is easily controllable from userspace by unprivileged user. When te user runs a loop like this: "while true; do perf stat -e cycles true; done" ... the performance of my test application that just increments a counter for one second drops by 4%. This is on a 16 cpu box with my test application using only one of them. An impact on a real server doing real work will be worse. Performance of KVM PMU drops nearly 50% due to jump_lable for "perf record" since KVM PMU implementation creates and destroys perf event frequently. This patch introduces a way to rate limit jump_label patching and uses it to fix the above problem. I believe that as jump_label use will spread the problem will become more common and thus solving it in a generic code is appropriate. Also fixing it in the perf code would result in moving jump_label accounting logic to perf code with all the ifdefs in case of JUMP_LABEL=n kernel. With this patch all details are nicely hidden inside jump_label code.

2011-12-06perf, x86: Implement event scheduler helper functionsRobert Richter
This patch introduces x86 perf scheduler code helper functions. We need this to later add more complex functionality to support overlapping counter constraints (next patch). The algorithm is modified so that the range of weight values is now generated from the constraints. There shouldn't be other functional changes. With the helper functions the scheduler is controlled. There are functions to initialize, traverse the event list, find unused counters etc. The scheduler keeps its own state. V3: * Added macro for_each_set_bit_cont(). * Changed functions interfaces of perf_sched_find_counter() and perf_sched_next_event() to use bool as return value. * Added some comments to make code better understandable. V4: * Fix broken event assignment if weight of the first event is not wmin (perf_sched_init()).

2011-12-06perf: Avoid a useless pmu_disable() in the perf-tickPeter Zijlstra

On Intel CPU this > results in two writes into PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR per tick. On bare metal > it does not cause significant slowdown, but when running perf in a virtual > machine it leads to 20% slowdown on my machine. Cure this by keeping a perf_event_context::nr_freq counter that counts the number of active events that require frequency adjustments and use this in a similar fashion to the already existing nr_events != nr_active test in perf_rotate_context(). By being able to exclude both rotation and frequency adjustments a-priory for the common case we can avoid the otherwise superfluous PMU disable.

2011-12-06target: Address legacy PYX_TRANSPORT_* return code breakageNicholas Bellinger
This patch removes legacy usage of PYX_TRANSPORT_* return codes in a number of locations and addresses cases where transport_generic_request_failure() was returning the incorrect sense upon CHECK_CONDITION status after the v3.1 converson to use errno return codes. This includes the conversion of transport_generic_request_failure() to process cmd->scsi_sense_reason and handle extra TCM_RESERVATION_CONFLICT before calling transport_send_check_condition_and_sense() to queue up response status. It also drops PYX_TRANSPORT_OUT_OF_MEMORY_RESOURCES legacy usgae, and returns TCM_LOGICAL_UNIT_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE w/ a response for these cases. transport_generic_allocate_tasks(), transport_generic_new_cmd(), backend SCF_SCSI_DATA_SG_IO_CDB ->do_task(), and emulated ->execute_task() have all been updated to set se_cmd->scsi_sense_reason and return errno codes universally upon failure. This includes cmd->scsi_sense_reason assignment in target_core_alua.c, target_core_pr.c and target_core_cdb.c emulation code. Finally it updates fabric modules to remove the legacy usage, and for TFO->new_cmd_map() callers forwards return values outside of fabric code. iscsi-target has also been updated to remove a handful of special cases related to the cleanup and signaling QUEUE_FULL handling w/ ft_write_pending() (v2: Drop extra SCF_SCSI_CDB_EXCEPTION check during failure from transport_generic_new_cmd, and re-add missing task->task_error_status assignment in transport_complete_task) Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>

2011-12-05perf: Fix loss of notification with multi-eventPeter Zijlstra
When you do: $ perf record -e cycles,cycles,cycles noploop 10 You expect about 10,000 samples for each event, i.e., 10s at 1000samples/sec. However, this is not what's happening. You get much fewer samples, maybe 3700 samples/event: $ perf report -D | tail -15 Aggregated stats: TOTAL events: 10998 MMAP events: 66 COMM events: 2 SAMPLE events: 10930 cycles stats: TOTAL events: 3644 SAMPLE events: 3644 cycles stats: TOTAL events: 3642 SAMPLE events: 3642 cycles stats: TOTAL events: 3644 SAMPLE events: 3644 On a Intel Nehalem or even AMD64, there are 4 counters capable of measuring cycles, so there is plenty of space to measure those events without multiplexing (even with the NMI watchdog active). And even with multiplexing, we'd expect roughly the same number of samples per event. The root of the problem was that when the event that caused the buffer to become full was not the first event passed on the cmdline, the user notification would get lost. The notification was sent to the file descriptor of the overflowed event but the perf tool was not polling on it. The perf tool aggregates all samples into a single buffer, i.e., the buffer of the first event. Consequently, it assumes notifications for any event will come via that descriptor. The seemingly straight forward solution of moving the waitq into the ringbuffer object doesn't work because of life-time issues. One could perf_event_set_output() on a fd that you're also blocking on and cause the old rb object to be freed while its waitq would still be referenced by the blocked thread -> FAIL. Therefore link all events to the ringbuffer and broadcast the wakeup from the ringbuffer object to all possible events that could be waited upon. This is rather ugly, and we're open to better solutions but it works for now.

2011-12-04netfilter: add ipv4 reverse path filter matchFlorian Westphal
This tries to do the same thing as fib_validate_source(), but differs in several aspects. The most important difference is that the reverse path filter built into fib_validate_source uses the oif as iif when performing the reverse lookup. We do not do this, as the oif is not yet known by the time the PREROUTING hook is invoked. We can't wait until FORWARD chain because by the time FORWARD is invoked ipv4 forward path may have already sent icmp messages is response to to-be-discarded-via-rpfilter packets. To avoid the such an additional lookup in PREROUTING, Patrick McHardy suggested to attach the path information directly in the match (i.e., just do what the standard ipv4 path does a bit earlier in PREROUTING). This works, but it also has a few caveats. Most importantly, when using marks in PREROUTING to re-route traffic based on the nfmark, -m rpfilter would have to be used after the nfmark has been set; otherwise the nfmark would have no effect (because the route is already attached). Another problem would be interaction with -j TPROXY, as this target sets an nfmark and uses ACCEPT instead of continue, i.e. such a version of -m rpfilter cannot be used for the initial to-be-intercepted packets. In case in turns out that the oif is required, we can add Patricks suggestion with a new match option (e.g. --rpf-use-oif) to keep ruleset compatibility. Another difference to current builtin ipv4 rpfilter is that packets subject to ipsec transformation are not automatically excluded. If you want this, simply combine -m rpfilter with the policy match. Packets arriving on loopback interfaces always match. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Acked-by: David S.

2011-12-04tcp: take care of misalignmentsEric Dumazet
We discovered that TCP stack could retransmit misaligned skbs if a malicious peer acknowledged sub MSS frame. This currently can happen only if output interface is non SG enabled : If SG is enabled, tcp builds headless skbs (all payload is included in fragments), so the tcp trimming process only removes parts of skb fragments, header stay aligned. Some arches cant handle misalignments, so force a head reallocation and shrink headroom to MAX_TCP_HEADER. Dont care about misaligments on x86 and PPC (or other arches setting NET_IP_ALIGN to 0) This patch introduces __pskb_copy() which can specify the headroom of new head, and pskb_copy() becomes a wrapper on top of __pskb_copy() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-12-03net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules.
