2015-01-25net: ipv6: Add sysctl entry to disable MTU updates from RAHarout Hedeshian
The kernel forcefully applies MTU values received in router advertisements provided the new MTU is less than the current. This behavior is undesirable when the user space is managing the MTU. Instead a sysctl flag 'accept_ra_mtu' is introduced such that the user space can control whether or not RA provided MTU updates should be applied. The default behavior is unchanged; user space must explicitly set this flag to 0 for RA MTUs to be ignored. Signed-off-by: Harout Hedeshian <harouth@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-01-25net/mlx4_core: Enable device recovery flow with SRIOVYishai Hadas
In SRIOV, both the PF and the VF may attempt device recovery whenever they assume that the device is not functioning. When the PF driver resets the device, the VF should detect this and attempt to reinitialize itself. The VF must be able to reset itself under all circumstances, even if the PF is not responsive. The VF shall reset itself in the following cases: 1. Commands are not processed within reasonable time over the communication channel. This is done considering device state and the correct return code based on the command as was done in the native mode, done in the next patch. 2. The VF driver receives an internal error event reported by the PF on the communication channel. This occurs when the PF driver resets the device or when VF is out of sync with the PF. Add 'VF reset' capability, which allows the VF to reinitialize itself even when the PF is not responsive. As PF and VF may run their reset flow simulantanisly, there are several cases that are handled: - Prevent freeing VF resources upon FLR, when PF is in its unloading stage. - Prevent PF getting VF commands before it has finished initializing its resources. - Upon VF startup, check that comm-channel is online before sending commands to the PF and getting timed-out.

2015-01-25net/mlx4_core: Manage interface state for Reset flow casesYishai Hadas
We need to manage interface state to sync between reset flow and some other relative cases such as remove_one. This has to be done to prevent certain races. For example in case software stack is down as a result of unload call, the remove_one should skip the unload phase. Implement the remove_one case, handling AER and other cases comes next. The interface can be up/down, upon remove_one, the state will include an extra bit indicating that the device is cleaned-up, forcing other tasks to finish before the final cleanup.

2015-01-25net/mlx4_core: Activate reset flow upon fatal command casesYishai Hadas
We activate reset flow upon command fatal errors, when the device enters an erroneous state, and must be reset. The cases below are assumed to be fatal: FW command timed-out, an error from FW on closing commands, pci is offline when posting/pending a command. In those cases we place the device into an error state: chip is reset, pending commands are awakened and completed immediately. Subsequent commands will return immediately. The return code in the above cases will depend on the command. Commands which free and close resources will return success (because the chip was reset, so callers may safely free their kernel resources). Other commands will return -EIO. Since the device's state was marked as error, the catas poller will detect this and restart the device's software stack (as is done when a FW internal error is directly detected). The device state is protected by a persistent mutex lives on its mlx4_dev, as such no need any more for the hcr_mutex which is removed.

2015-01-25net/mlx4_core: Enhance the catas flow to support device resetYishai Hadas

2015-01-16rhashtable: Fix race in rhashtable_destroy() and use regular work_structYing Xue
When we put our declared work task in the global workqueue with schedule_delayed_work(), its delay parameter is always zero. Therefore, we should define a regular work in rhashtable structure instead of a delayed work. By the way, we add a condition to check whether resizing functions are NULL before cancelling the work, avoiding to cancel an uninitialized work. Lastly, while we wait for all work items we submitted before to run to completion with cancel_delayed_work(), ht->mutex has been taken in rhashtable_destroy(). Moreover, cancel_delayed_work() doesn't return until all work items are accomplished, and when work items are scheduled, the work's function - rht_deferred_worker() will be called. However, as rht_deferred_worker() also needs to acquire the lock, deadlock might happen at the moment as the lock is already held before. So if the cancel work function is moved out of the lock covered scope, this will avoid the deadlock.

2015-01-12mmc: sdhci: Disable re-tuning for HS400Adrian Hunter
Re-tuning for HS400 mode must be done in HS200 mode. Currently there is no support for that. That needs to be reflected in the code. Specifically, if tuning is executed in HS400 mode then return an error, and do not start the tuning timer if HS200 tuning is being done prior to switching to HS400. Note that periodic re-tuning is not expected to be needed for HS400 but re-tuning is still needed after the host controller has lost power. In the case of suspend/resume that is not necessary because the card is fully re-initialised. That just leaves runtime suspend/resume with no support for HS400 re-tuning.

So renumber it to avoid the clash.

2015-01-08mm: protect set_page_dirty() from ongoing truncationJohannes Weiner
Tejun, while reviewing the code, spotted the following race condition between the dirtying and truncation of a page: __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() __delete_from_page_cache() if (TestSetPageDirty(page)) page->mapping = NULL if (PageDirty()) dec_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY); dec_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE); if (page->mapping) account_page_dirtied(page) __inc_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY); __inc_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE); which results in an imbalance of NR_FILE_DIRTY and BDI_RECLAIMABLE. Dirtiers usually lock out truncation, either by holding the page lock directly, or in case of zap_pte_range(), by pinning the mapcount with the page table lock held. The notable exception to this rule, though, is do_wp_page(), for which this race exists. However, do_wp_page() already waits for a locked page to unlock before setting the dirty bit, in order to prevent a race where clear_page_dirty() misses the page bit in the presence of dirty ptes. Upgrade that wait to a fully locked set_page_dirty() to also cover the situation explained above. Afterwards, the code in set_page_dirty() dealing with a truncation race is no longer needed. Remove it. Reported-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Kirill A.

2015-01-08mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchyKonstantin Khlebnikov
Constantly forking task causes unlimited grow of anon_vma chain. Each next child allocates new level of anon_vmas and links vma to all previous levels because pages might be inherited from any level. This patch adds heuristic which decides to reuse existing anon_vma instead of forking new one. It adds counter anon_vma->degree which counts linked vmas and directly descending anon_vmas and reuses anon_vma if counter is lower than two. As a result each anon_vma has either vma or at least two descending anon_vmas. In such trees half of nodes are leafs with alive vmas, thus count of anon_vmas is no more than two times bigger than count of vmas. This heuristic reuses anon_vmas as few as possible because each reuse adds false aliasing among vmas and rmap walker ought to scan more ptes when it searches where page is might be mapped.

Specifics: - Fix ACPI power management intialization for device objects corresponding to devices that are not present at the init time (the _STA control method returns 0 for them) and therefore should not be regarded as power manageable (Rafael J Wysocki). - Rename a structure field and two functions used by the ACPI processor driver to make them less tied to architectures that use APICs (both x86 and ia64) and more suitable for ARM64 processors (Hanjun Guo). - Add a disable_native_backlight quirk for Dell XPS15 L521X designed in an unusual way preventing native backlight from working on that machine (Hans de Goede)" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.19-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / video: Add disable_native_backlight quirk for Dell XPS15 L521X ACPI / processor: Rename acpi_(un)map_lsapic() to acpi_(un)map_cpu() ACPI / processor: Convert apic_id to phys_id to make it arch agnostic ACPI / PM: Fix PM initialization for devices that are not present

Adds a helper function a driver can use to abort requeued requests in case any are pending when h/w queues are being removed. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-01-08blk-mq: Let drivers cancel requeue_workKeith Busch
Kicking requeued requests will start h/w queues in a work_queue, which may alter the driver's requested state to temporarily stop them. This patch exports a method to cancel the q->requeue_work so a driver can be assured stopped h/w queues won't be started up before it is ready.

2015-01-07blk-mq: get rid of ->cmd_size in the hardware queueJens Axboe
We store it in the tag set, we don't need it in the hardware queue. While removing cmd_size, place ->queue_num further down to avoid a hole on 64-bit archs. It's not used in any fast paths, so we can safely move it. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

2015-01-06ethtool: Extend ethtool plugin module eeprom API to phylibEd Swierk
This patch extends the ethtool plugin module eeprom API to support cards whose phy support is delegated to a separate driver. The handlers for ETHTOOL_GMODULEINFO and ETHTOOL_GMODULEEEPROM call the module_info and module_eeprom functions if the phy driver provides them; otherwise the handlers call the equivalent ethtool_ops functions provided by network drivers with built-in phy support.

2015-01-06mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard pageLinus Torvalds
Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma that is reported by /proc/maps. This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done. And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit d7824370e263: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area. This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error. It also effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit. Let's see if anybody notices. We could teach acct_stack_growth() to allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test, but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed.

2015-01-05ip: Move checksum convert defines to inetTom Herbert
Move convert_csum from udp_sock to inet_sock. This allows the possibility that we can use convert checksum for different types of sockets and also allows convert checksum to be enabled from inet layer (what we'll want to do when enabling IP_CHECKSUM cmsg).

2015-01-05ACPI / processor: Rename acpi_(un)map_lsapic() to acpi_(un)map_cpu()Hanjun Guo
acpi_map_lsapic() will allocate a logical CPU number and map it to physical CPU id (such as APIC id) for the hot-added CPU, it will also do some mapping for NUMA node id and etc, acpi_unmap_lsapic() will do the reverse. We can see that the name of the function is a little bit confusing and arch (IA64) dependent so rename them as acpi_(un)map_cpu() to make arch agnostic and explicit.

2015-01-03rhashtable: Supports for nulls markerThomas Graf
In order to allow for wider usage of rhashtable, use a special nulls marker to terminate each chain. The reason for not using the existing nulls_list is that the prev pointer usage would not be valid as entries can be linked in two different buckets at the same time. The 4 nulls base bits can be set through the rhashtable_params structure like this: struct rhashtable_params params = { [...] .nulls_base = (1U << RHT_BASE_SHIFT), }; This reduces the hash length from 32 bits to 27 bits.

2015-01-03rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinkingThomas Graf
Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches both tables if needed. Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems to become an atomic counter.
