Firmware handling is made customizable.
This is done by creating a separate ops structure for the
firmware functions that depends on a particular firmware
format (such as ELF). The ELF functions are default used
unless the HW driver explicitly injects another firmware
handler by updating rproc->fw_ops.
The function rproc_da_to_va() is exported, as custom
firmware handlers may need to use this function.

Create a new function, get_random_bytes_arch() which will use the
architecture-specific hardware random number generator if it is
present. Change get_random_bytes() to not use the HW RNG, even if it
is avaiable.
The reason for this is that the hw random number generator is fast (if
it is present), but it requires that we trust the hardware
manufacturer to have not put in a back door. (For example, an
increasing counter encrypted by an AES key known to the NSA.)
It's unlikely that Intel (for example) was paid off by the US
Government to do this, but it's impossible for them to prove otherwise
--- especially since Bull Mountain is documented to use AES as a
whitener. Hence, the output of an evil, trojan-horse version of
RDRAND is statistically indistinguishable from an RDRAND implemented
to the specifications claimed by Intel. Short of using a tunnelling
electronic microscope to reverse engineer an Ivy Bridge chip and
disassembling and analyzing the CPU microcode, there's no way for us
to tell for sure.
Since users of get_random_bytes() in the Linux kernel need to be able
to support hardware systems where the HW RNG is not present, most
time-sensitive users of this interface have already created their own
cryptographic RNG interface which uses get_random_bytes() as a seed.
So it's much better to use the HW RNG to improve the existing random
number generator, by mixing in any entropy returned by the HW RNG into
/dev/random's entropy pool, but to always _use_ /dev/random's entropy
pool.
This way we get almost of the benefits of the HW RNG without any
potential liabilities. The only benefits we forgo is the
speed/performance enhancements --- and generic kernel code can't
depend on depend on get_random_bytes() having the speed of a HW RNG
anyway.
For those places that really want access to the arch-specific HW RNG,
if it is available, we provide get_random_bytes_arch().

Add a new interface, add_device_randomness() for adding data to the
random pool that is likely to differ between two devices (or possibly
even per boot). This would be things like MAC addresses or serial
numbers, or the read-out of the RTC. This does *not* add any actual
entropy to the pool, but it initializes the pool to different values
for devices that might otherwise be identical and have very little
entropy available to them (particularly common in the embedded world).
[ Modified by tytso to mix in a timestamp, since there may be some
variability caused by the time needed to detect/configure the hardware
in question. ]

We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various
reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the
CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy
from a somewhat externally controllable source.
This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition
to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first.
During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu
pool. Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is
initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool. This
assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as
possible.
(Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by
tytso.)

Add a new inode operation which is called on the last component of an open.
Using this the filesystem can look up, possibly create and open the file in one
atomic operation. If it cannot perform this (e.g. the file type turned out to
be wrong) it may signal this by returning NULL instead of an open struct file
pointer.
i_op->atomic_open() is only called if the last component is negative or needs
lookup. Handling cached positive dentries here doesn't add much value: these
can be opened using f_op->open(). If the cached file turns out to be invalid,
the open can be retried, this time using ->atomic_open() with a fresh dentry.
For now leave the old way of using open intents in lookup and revalidate in
place. This will be removed once all the users are converted.
David Howells noticed that if ->atomic_open() opens the file but does not create
it, handle_truncate() will be called on it even if it is not a regular file.
Fix this by checking the file type in this case too.

Can be used to match packets against netfilter ip sets created via ipset(8).
skb->sk_iif is used as 'incoming interface', skb->dev is 'outgoing interface'.
Since ipset is usually called from netfilter, the ematch
initializes a fake xt_action_param, pulls the ip header into the
linear area and also sets skb->data to the IP header (otherwise
matching Layer 4 set types doesn't work).

This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)
TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.
sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.
TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.
As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.
This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.
Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.
Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)
I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.
As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.
If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.
[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
have no effect.

Based on work 1st by Ben Herrenschmidt and Jeremy Kerr, then by Grant
Likely, this patch adds support to clk_get to allow drivers to retrieve
clock data from the device tree.
Platforms scan for clocks in DT with of_clk_init and a match table, and
the register a provider through of_clk_add_provider. The provider's
clk_src_get function will be called when a device references the
provider's OF node for a clock reference.
v6 (Rob Herring):
- Return error values instead of NULL to match clock framework
expectations
v5 (Rob Herring):
- Move from drivers/of into common clock subsystem
- Squashed "dt/clock: add a simple provider get function" and
"dt/clock: add function to get parent clock name"
- Rebase to 3.4-rc1
- Drop CONFIG_OF_CLOCK and just use CONFIG_OF
- Add missing EXPORT_SYMBOL to various functions
- s/clock-output-name/clock-output-names/
- Define that fixed-clock binding is a single output
v4 (Rob Herring):
- Rework for common clk subsystem
- Add of_clk_get_parent_name function
v3: - Clarified documentation
v2: - fixed errant ';' causing compile error
- Editorial fixes from Shawn Guo
- merged in adding lookup to clkdev
- changed property names to match established convention. After
working with the binding a bit it really made more sense to follow the
lead of 'reg', 'gpios' and 'interrupts' by making the input simply
'clocks' & 'clock-names' instead of 'clock-input-*', and to only use
clock-output* for the producer nodes. (Sorry Shawn, this will mean
you need to change some code, but it should be trivial)
- Add ability to inherit clocks from parent nodes by using an empty
'clock-ranges' property. Useful for busses. I could use some feedback
on the new property name, 'clock-ranges' doesn't feel right to me.

This converts the Integrator platform to use common clock
and the ICST driver. Since from this point not all ARM
reference platforms use the clock, we define
CONFIG_PLAT_VERSATILE_CLOCK and select it for all platforms
except the Integrator.
Open issue: I could not use the .init_early() field of the
machine descriptor to initialize the clocks, but had to
move them to .init_irq(), so presumably .init_early() is
so early that common clock is not up, and .init_machine()
is too late since it's needed for the clockevent/clocksource
initialization. Any suggestions on how to solve this is
very welcome.

memblock_free_reserved_regions() calls memblock_free(), but
memblock_free() would double reserved.regions too, so we could free the
old range for reserved.regions.
Also tj said there is another bug which could be related to this.
| I don't think we're saving any noticeable
| amount by doing this "free - give it to page allocator - reserve
| again" dancing. We should just allocate regions aligned to page
| boundaries and free them later when memblock is no longer in use.
in that case, when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, will get panic:
memblock_free: [0x0000102febc080-0x0000102febf080] memblock_free_reserved_regions+0x37/0x39

So try to allocate with PAGE_SIZE alignment and free it later.
