Fix multiple bugs in event tracing:
1) If you enable uCode tracing with the device down,
it will still attempt to access the device and
continuously log "MAC is in deep sleep!" errors.
Fix this by only starting logging when the device
is actually alive.
2) Now you can set the flag when the device is down,
but logging doesn't happen when you bring it up.
To fix that, start logging when the device comes
alive. This means we don't log before -- we could
do that but I don't need it right now.
3) For some reason we read the error instead of the
event log -- use the right pointer.
4) Optimise SRAM reading of event log header.
5) Fix reading write pointer == capacity, which can
happen due to racy SRAM access
6) Most importantly: fix an error where we would try
to read WAY too many events (like 2^32-300) when
we read the wrap counter before it is updated by
the uCode -- this does happen in practice and will
cause the driver to hang the machine.
7) Finally, change the timer to 10ms instead of 100ms
as 100ms is too slow to capture all data with a
normal event log and with 100ms the log will wrap
multiple times before we have a chance to read it.

If the driver blocked this specific STA with the help of
ieee80211_sta_block_awake we won't clear WLAN_STA_PS_STA later but
still decrement num_sta_ps. Hence, the next data frame from this
STA will trigger ap_sta_ps_end again and also decrement num_sta_ps
again leading to an incorrect num_sta_ps counter.
This can result in problems with powersaving clients not waking up
from PS because the TIM calculation might be skipped due to the
incorrect num_sta_ps counter.

When WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER is set by ieee80211_sta_block_awake the
num_sta_ps counter is not incremented. Hence, we shouldn't decrement
it in __sta_info_destroy if only WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER is set. This
could result in an incorrect num_sta_ps counter leading to strange side
effects with associated powersaving clients.
Fix this by only decrementing num_sta_ps when WLAN_STA_PS_STA was set
before.

In the future, when we start notifying drivers,
state transitions could potentially fail. To make
it easier to distinguish between programming bugs
and driver failures:
* rename sta_info_move_state() to
sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be
called before the station is inserted (and
check this with a new station flag).
* rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just
plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be
the regular function that can fail for more
than just one reason (bad transition or an
error from the driver)
This makes the programming model easier -- one of
the functions can only be called before insertion
and can't fail, the other can fail.

For every WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMDID command (send from the host),
the firmware sends WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENTID as
an acknowledgement to the host.
In order to being sync with the firmware, the host has to wait for
WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENT event before going to
the suspend state. This patch ensures ath6kl_wow_suspend() waits
until it gets this event after sending set host sleep mode command.
This patch adds,
* New command WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENTID in
WMI event table.
* New WMI function ath6kl_wmi_host_sleep_mode_cmd_prcd_evt_rx()
to process the event.
* New flag HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED in VIF flags to record
the arrival of the event.

First preference is given to the user configured WOW patterns.
If the user doesn't configure any patterns (for ex, via iw command),
the default patterns will be configured based on the current mode
(vif->nw_type) while going to WOW suspend.
Summary of changes:
* ath6kl_wow_ap() is added to configure the below default
patterns when the system enters into WOW suspend in AP mode.
+ Unicast IP, EAPOL-like and ARP packet pattern
+ ARP packet pattern
+ mDNS/SSDP/LLMNR pattern
+ DHCP broadcast pattern
* ath6kl_wow_sta() is added to configure the below default
patterns when the system enters into WOW suspend in STA mode.
+ Unicast packet pattern
+ mDNS/SSDP/LLMNR pattern
* Move the user provided WOW patterns configuration code
from ath6kl_wow_suspend() to a separate function called
ath6kl_wow_usr().
* Two argument variable's ('filter' and 'mask) data type in
ath6kl_wmi_add_wow_pattern_cmd() are changed from 'u8 *' to
'const u8 *'. This is needed to make all pattern and mask
arrays to be 'static const u8' in the caller function.
* New conditional check is added to make sure user
configured pattern count is within the limit (WOW_MAX_FILTERS_PER_LIST).

Using this patch, the user can bypass existing auto
suspend mode selection logic and force ath6kl to enter
into the suspend mode what he/she wants.
If the user doesn't choose any suspend mode while doing
insmod of the driver, auto suspend mode selection logic
will kick in and choose suspend mode based on the host
SDIO controller capability.
Generic module parameter is required to specify suspend
mode including Deep Sleep and WOW while doing insmod.
Renaming existing mod param variable suspend_cutpower
would be sufficient to meet this requirement.
New module parameter suspend_mode can take any one of
the below suspend state,
1. cut power
2. deep sleep
3. wow

"ath6kl: Define a structure for connection specific aggregation information"
introduces this. In aggr_conn_init(), vif->aggr_cntxt is assigned to
aggr_conn->aggr_info, but vif->aggr_cntxt is not initialized at this
point, this would end up accessing an invalid pointer in aggregation
receive path. Fix this by passing the correct aggr_info to aggr_conn_init().

Commit 0884d7aa24 (AF_UNIX: Fix poll blocking problem when reading from
a stream socket) added a regression for epoll() in Edge Triggered mode
(EPOLLET)
Appropriate fix is to use skb_peek()/skb_unlink() instead of
skb_dequeue(), and only call skb_unlink() when skb is fully consumed.
This remove the need to requeue a partial skb into sk_receive_queue head
and the extra sk->sk_data_ready() calls that added the regression.
This is safe because once skb is given to sk_receive_queue, it is not
modified by a writer, and readers are serialized by u->readlock mutex.
This also reduce number of spinlock acquisition for small reads or
MSG_PEEK users so should improve overall performance.

This commit fixes tcp_trim_head() to recalculate the number of
segments in the skb with the skb's existing MSS, so trimming the head
causes the skb segment count to be monotonically non-increasing - it
should stay the same or go down, but not increase.
Previously tcp_trim_head() used the current MSS of the connection. But
if there was a decrease in MSS between original transmission and ACK
(e.g. due to PMTUD), this could cause tcp_trim_head() to
counter-intuitively increase the segment count when trimming bytes off
the head of an skb. This violated assumptions in tcp_tso_acked() that
tcp_trim_head() only decreases the packet count, so that packets_acked
in tcp_tso_acked() could underflow, leading tcp_clean_rtx_queue() to
pass u32 pkts_acked values as large as 0xffffffff to
ca_ops->pkts_acked().
As an aside, if tcp_trim_head() had really wanted the skb to reflect
the current MSS, it should have called tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()
unconditionally, since a decrease in MSS would mean that a
single-packet skb should now be sliced into multiple segments.

sysctl_tcp_mem() initialization was moved to sysctl_tcp_ipv4.c
in commit 3dc43e3e4d0b52197d3205214fe8f162f9e0c334, since it
became a per-ns value.
That code, however, will never run when CONFIG_SYSCTL is
disabled, leading to bogus values on those fields - causing hung
TCP sockets.
This patch fixes it by keeping an initialization code in
tcp_init(). It will be overwritten by the first net namespace
init if CONFIG_SYSCTL is compiled in, and do the right thing if
it is compiled out.
It is also named properly as tcp_init_mem(), to properly signal
its non-sysctl side effect on TCP limits.

Whenever the PAN (P2P) context is active, it
has timers in the uCode that prevent sleep,
so scanning can't be out of channel for more
than the beacon interval programmed into the
device.
Before this patch, a full scan including any
passive channels when P2P was active would
stall forever because it wouldn't find time
to execute the passive requests (for default
beacon intervals of 100 TU.)

caif is a subsystem and as such it needs to register with
register_pernet_subsys instead of register_pernet_device.
Among other problems using register_pernet_device was resulting in
net_generic being called before the caif_net structure was allocated.
Which has been causing net_generic to fail with either BUG_ON's or by
return NULL pointers.
A more ugly problem that could be caused is packets in flight why the
subsystem is shutting down.
To remove confusion also remove the cruft cause by inappropriately
trying to fix this bug.
With the aid of the previous patch I have tested this patch and
confirmed that using register_pernet_subsys makes the failure go away as
it should.

By definition net_generic should never be called when it can return
NULL. Fail conspicously with a BUG_ON to make it clear when people mess
up that a NULL return should never happen.
Recently there was a bug in the CAIF subsystem where it was registered
with register_pernet_device instead of register_pernet_subsys. It was
erroneously concluded that net_generic could validly return NULL and
that net_assign_generic was buggy (when it was just inefficient).
Hopefully this BUG_ON will prevent people to coming to similar erroneous
conclusions in the futrue.

Currently, when we are on an IBSS network with no active station,
we would scan for other BSSID, even if fixed_bssid is on, due to
a bug in ibss.c, where fixed_channel would be checked instead of
fixed_bssid. This would trigger useless scans where scan results
would not be used anyway.
This patch also reverts commit 39d02a7d90602d4557ee05db2a157a4e0,
which assumed that the ifibss->fixed_channel check was legitimate
to disable single-channel scans. IBSS single-channel scan should

It was providing us with static_branch() definition implicitly, so
after its removal the build got broken.
To fix this, and avoid having this happening in the future,
let me do the right thing and include linux/jump_label.h
explicitly in sock.h.

Setting link parameters on a netdevice changes the value
of if_nlmsg_size(), therefore it is necessary to recalculate
min_ifinfo_dump_size.

Tunnel devices set NETIF_F_LLTX to bypass HARD_TX_LOCK. Sit and
ipip set this unconditionally in ops->setup, but gre enables it
conditionally after parameter passing in ops->newlink. This is
not called during tunnel setup as below, however, so GRE tunnels are
still taking the lock.
modprobe ip_gre
ip tunnel add test0 mode gre remote 10.5.1.1 dev lo
ip link set test0 up
ip addr add 10.6.0.1 dev test0
# cat /sys/class/net/test0/features
# $DIR/test_tunnel_xmit 10 10.5.2.1
ip route add 10.5.2.0/24 dev test0
ip tunnel del test0
The newlink callback is only called in rtnl_netlink, and only if
the device is new, as it calls register_netdevice internally. Gre
tunnels are created at 'ip tunnel add' with ioctl SIOCADDTUNNEL,
which calls ipgre_tunnel_locate, which calls register_netdev.
rtnl_newlink is called at 'ip link set', but skips ops->newlink
and the device is up with locking still enabled. The equivalent
ipip tunnel works fine, btw (just substitute 'method gre' for
'method ipip').
On kernels before /sys/class/net/*/features was removed [1],
the first commented out line returns 0x6000 with method gre,
which indicates that NETIF_F_LLTX (0x1000) is not set. With ipip,
it reports 0x7000. This test cannot be used on recent kernels where
the sysfs file is removed (and ETHTOOL_GFEATURES does not currently
work for tunnel devices, because they lack dev->ethtool_ops).
The second commented out line calls a simple transmission test [2]
that sends on 24 cores at maximum rate. Results of a single run:
ipip: 19,372,306
gre before patch: 4,839,753
gre after patch: 19,133,873
This patch replicates the condition check in ipgre_newlink to
ipgre_tunnel_locate. It works for me, both with oseq on and off.
This is the first time I looked at rtnetlink and iproute2 code,
though, so someone more knowledgeable should probably check the
patch. Thanks.
The tail of both functions is now identical, by the way. To avoid
code duplication, I'll be happy to rework this and merge the two.
