This patch removes an empty ifdef from inet_frag_intern()
in net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c.
commit b67bfe0d42cac56c512dd5da4b1b347a23f4b70a
(hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators) removed hlist from
net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c, but did not remove the enclosing ifdef command,
which is now empty.

htb_sched structures are big, and source of false sharing on SMP.
Every time a packet is queued or dequeue, many cache lines must be
touched because structures are not lay out properly.
By carefully splitting htb_sched in two parts, and define sub structures
to increase data locality, we can improve performance dramatically on
SMP.
New htb_prio structure can also be used in htb_class to increase data
locality.
I got 26 % performance increase on a 24 threads machine, with 200
concurrent netperf in TCP_RR mode, using a HTB hierarchy of 4 classes.

In previous discussions, I tried to find some reasonable heuristics
for delayed ACK, however this seems not possible, according to Eric:
"ACKS might also be delayed because of bidirectional
traffic, and is more controlled by the application
response time. TCP stack can not easily estimate it."
"ACK can be incredibly useful to recover from losses in
a short time.
The vast majority of TCP sessions are small lived, and we
send one ACK per received segment anyway at beginning or
retransmits to let the sender smoothly increase its cwnd,
so an auto-tuning facility wont help them that much."
and according to David:
"ACKs are the only information we have to detect loss.
And, for the same reasons that TCP VEGAS is fundamentally
broken, we cannot measure the pipe or some other
receiver-side-visible piece of information to determine
when it's "safe" to stretch ACK.
And even if it's "safe", we should not do it so that losses are
accurately detected and we don't spuriously retransmit.
The only way to know when the bandwidth increases is to
"test" it, by sending more and more packets until drops happen.
That's why all successful congestion control algorithms must
operate on explicited tested pieces of information.
Similarly, it's not really possible to universally know if
it's safe to stretch ACK or not."
It still makes sense to enable or disable quick ack mode like
what TCP_QUICK_ACK does.
Similar to TCP_QUICK_ACK option, but for people who can't
modify the source code and still wants to control
TCP delayed ACK behavior. As David suggested, this should belong
to per-path scope, since different pathes may want different
behaviors.

If we disable all of the net interfaces, and enable
un-lo interface before lo interface, we already allocated
the addrconf dst in ipv6_add_addr. So we shouldn't allocate
it again when we enable lo interface.
Otherwise the message below will be triggered.

MD5 key lookups on a given TCP socket were being performed
incorrectly. This fix alters parameter inputs to the MD5
lookup function tcp_md5_do_lookup, which is called by functions
tcp_md5_do_add and tcp_md5_do_del. Specifically, the change now
inputs the correct address and address family required to make
a proper lookup.

Though we don't export the /proc/sys/net/ipv[4,6]/neigh/default/
directory to the un-init_net, but we can still use cmd such as
"ip ntable change name arp_cache locktime 129" to change the locktime

The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right
next to the deletion of another option.
The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the
handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action().
Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically
keep everything in both conflict hunks.
The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a
dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that
Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted
to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine
whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation.
However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have
to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the
conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the
RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should
be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes.
To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try
to allocate 'tb'.

Doing so will allow us to hold the BSS (not just ref it) over the
association process, thus ensuring that it doesn't time out and
gets invisible to the user (e.g. in 'iw wlan0 link'.)
This also fixes a leak in mac80211 where it doesn't always release
the BSS struct properly in all cases where calling this function.
This leak was reported by Ben Greear.

Since my commit 3713b4e364 ("nl80211: allow splitting wiphy
information in dumps"), nl80211_dump_wiphy() uses the global
nl80211_fam.attrbuf for parsing the incoming data. This wouldn't
be a problem if it only did so on the first dump iteration which
is locked against other commands in generic netlink, but due to
space constraints in cb->args (the needed state doesn't fit) I
decided to always parse the original message. That's racy though
since nl80211_fam.attrbuf could be used by some other parsing in
generic netlink concurrently.
For now, fix this by allocating a separate parse buffer (it's a
bit too big for the stack, currently 1448 bytes on 64-bit). For
-next, I'll change the code to parse into the global buffer in
the first round only and then allocate a smaller buffer to keep
the data in cb->args.

The problem is that we're ending up in __rpc_lookup_create_exclusive
with a negative dentry that already has d_op set. A little debugging
has shown that when we hit this, the d_ops are already set to
simple_dentry_operations.
I believe that what's happening is that during a mount, idmapd is racing
in and doing a lookup of /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs/nfs/clnt???/idmap.
Before that dentry reference is released, the kernel races in to create
that file and finds the new negative dentry, which already has the
d_op set.
This patch just avoids setting the d_op if it's already set.
simple_dentry_operations and rpc_dentry_operations are functionally
equivalent so it shouldn't matter which one it's set to.

This reverts commit 6d810f10325522cfcf498dc6d64b9f96e1f5153f
In this way an IBSS station will not use the AUTH messages

The behaviour was racy and was not working properly.
It has been introduced to help wpa_supplicant to support
IBSS/RSN, however all the logic is now getting moved into
wpa_s itself which will also be in charge of handling the
AUTH messages thanks to the mgmt frame registration.
If userspace does not register for receiving AUTH frames
then mac80211 will still reply by itself.
At the same time, the auth frame registration counter can be

As part of the push to add 802.1ad server provider tagging support to the
kernel the VLAN features flags were renamed. Unfortunately the kernel name
for the VLAN hardware acceleration features that the kernel shows user space
was included in the rename, which broke ethtool (txvlan and rxvlan options
do not work). This patch restores the original names, i.e. the original ABI.
If we wanted to make clear to users that we are refering to CTAGs we can
always change ethtool's short_name and long_name for these features (for
example something along the lines of txvlan -> txvlan-ctag, tx-vlan-offload ->
tx-vlan-ctag-offload).

SCTP_STATIC is just another define for the static keyword. It's use
is inconsistent in the SCTP code anyway and it was introduced in the
initial implementation of SCTP in 2.5. We have a regression suite in
lksctp-tools, but this is for user space only, so noone makes use of

So simply Remove it, to be more consistent with the rest of the kernel

for 3.10. Many of these are one- or two-liners, and a couple of
others are mostly relocating existing code to avoid races or to
limit the code to effecting specific hardware, etc.
The mac80211 fixes have a couple of exceptions to the above.
Regarding those, Johannes says:
"Following davem's complaint about my patch, here's a new pull request
w/o the patch he was complaining about, but instead with the const
fix rolled into the fix.
I have a fix for radar detection, one for rate control and a workaround
for broken HT APs which is a regression fix because we didn't rely
on them to be correct before."
Johannes also sends some iwlwifi fixes:
"I picked up Nikolay's patch for the chain noise calibration bug
that seems to have been there forever, a fix from Emmanuel for
setting TX flags on BAR frames and a fix of my own to avoid printing
request_module() errors if the kernel isn't even modular. We also
have our own version of Stanislaw's fix for rate control."
Along with those...
Anderson Lizardo fixes a Bluetooth memory corruption bug when an MTU
value is set to too small of a value.
Arend van Spriel sends a revised brcmsmac bug that fixes a regression
caused by a bad return value in an earlier patch. He also sends a
brcmfmac fix to avoid an oops when loading the driver at boot.
Daniel Drake fixes a race condition in btmrvl that causes hangs on
suspend for OLPC hardware.
Johan Hedberg adds a check to avoid sending a
HCI_Delete_Stored_Link_Key command to devices that don't support them,
avoiding some scary looking log spam.
Stanislaw Gruszka gives us a fix for iwlegacy to be able to use rates
higher than 1Mb/s on older wireless networks. He also sends an rt2x00
fix to reinstate older tx power handling behavior for some devices
that didn't work well with the current code.

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes. They are targeted to the
TCP option targets, that have receive some scrinity in the last week. The
changes are:
* Fix TCPOPTSTRIP, it stopped working in the forward chain as tcp_hdr
uses skb->transport_header, and we cannot use that in the forwarding
case, from myself.
* Fix default IPv6 MSS in TCPMSS in case of absence of TCP MSS options,
from Phil Oester.
* Fix missing fragmentation handling again in TCPMSS, from Phil Oester.

Convert enable_bearer() to RCU locking with dev_get_by_name().
Based on a similar changeset in commit 840a185d ["aoe: remove
dev_base_lock use from aoecmd_cfg_pkts()"] -- quoting that:
"dev_base_lock is the legacy way to lock the device list,
and is planned to disappear. (writers hold RTNL, readers
hold RCU lock)"

When skb buffer cannot be allocated in link_send_sections_long(),
-ENOMEM error code instead of -EFAULT should be returned to its
caller.

Once message build request function returns invalid code, the
process of sending message cannot continue. So in case of message
build failure, tipc_link_send_sections_fast() should return
immediately.

pfifo_fast is set as default traffic class queueing discipline. This
queue has three so called "bands". Within each band, FIFO rules apply.
However, as long as there are packets waiting in band 0, band 1 won't
be processed.
Now all kind of TIPC type packet priorities are never set, that is,
their priorities are 0, so they are mapped to band 1 of pfifo_fast
qdisc. But, especially during link congestion, if link protocol packet
can be sent out as earlier as possible than other type of packets so
that protocol packet can arrive at peer endpoint in time, the peer
will timely reset its link timeout timer to keep the link alive.
So enhancing the priority of link protocol packets can meet the
specific demand to avoid unnecessary link reset due to a transient
link congestion.
