2014-07-31mlx5: Adjust events to use unsigned long param instead of void *Jack Morgenstein1-2/+2
In the event flow, we currently pass only a port number in the void *data argument. Rather than pass a pointer to the event handlers, we should use an "unsigned long" parameter, and pass the port number value directly. In the future, if necessary for some events, we can use the unsigned long parameter to pass a pointer.

2014-07-31mlx5: minor fixes (mainly avoidance of hidden casts)Jack Morgenstein2-8/+4
There were many places where parameters which should be u8/u16 were integer type. Additionally, in 2 places, a check for a non-null pointer was added before dereferencing the pointer (this is actually a bug fix).

2014-07-31mlx5: Move pci device handling from mlx5_ib to mlx5_coreJack Morgenstein1-2/+15
In preparation for a new mlx5 device which is VPI (i.e., ports can be either IB or ETH), move the pci device functionality from mlx5_ib to mlx5_core. This involves the following changes: 1. Move mlx5_core_dev struct out of mlx5_ib_dev. mlx5_core_dev is now an independent structure maintained by mlx5_core. mlx5_ib_dev now has a pointer to that struct. This requires changing a lot of places where the core_dev struct was accessed via mlx5_ib_dev (now, this needs to be a pointer dereference). 2. All PCI initializations are now done in mlx5_core. Thus, it is now mlx5_core which does pci_register_device (and not mlx5_ib, as was previously). 3. mlx5_ib now registers itself with mlx5_core as an "interface" driver. This is very similar to the mechanism employed for the mlx4 (ConnectX) driver. Once the HCA is initialized (by mlx5_core), it invokes the interface drivers to do their initializations. 4. There is a new event handler which the core registers: mlx5_core_event(). This event handler invokes the event handlers registered by the interfaces.

2014-07-29net: remove deprecated syststamp timestampWillem de Bruijn1-13/+1
The SO_TIMESTAMPING API defines three types of timestamps: software, hardware in raw format (hwtstamp) and hardware converted to system format (syststamp). The last has been deprecated in favor of combining hwtstamp with a PTP clock driver. There are no active users in the kernel. The option was device driver dependent. If set, but without hardware support, the correct behavior is to return zero in the relevant field in the SCM_TIMESTAMPING ancillary message. Without device drivers implementing the option, this field is effectively always zero. Remove the internal plumbing to dissuage new drivers from implementing the feature. Keep the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE flag, however, to avoid breaking existing applications that request the timestamp. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-07-25 Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.17 stream! For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "We have a lot of TDLS patches, among them a fix that should make hwsim tests happy again. The rest, this time, is mostly small fixes." For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "Some more patches for 3.17. The most important change here is the move of the 6lowpan code to net/6lowpan. It has been agreed with Davem that this change will go through the bluetooth tree. The rest are mostly clean up and fixes." and, "Here follows some more patches for 3.17. These are mostly fixes to what we've sent to you before for next merge window." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have the usual amount of BT Coex stuff. Arik continues to work on TDLS and Ariej contributes a few things for HS2.0. I added a few more things to the firmware debugging infrastructure. Eran fixes a small bug - pretty normal content." And for the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "For ath6kl me and Jessica added support for ar6004 hw3.0, our latest version of ar6004. For ath10k Janusz added a printout so that it's easier to check what ath10k kconfig options are enabled. He also added a debugfs file to configure maximum amsdu and ampdu values. Also we had few fixes as usual." On top of that is the usual large batch of various driver updates -- brcmfmac, mwifiex, the TI drivers, and wil6210 all get some action. Rafał has also been very busy with b43 and related updates. Also, I pulled the wireless tree into this in order to resolve a merge conflict... P.S.

2014-07-24mm/rmap.c: fix pgoff calculation to handle hugepage correctlyNaoya Horiguchi1-0/+12
I triggered VM_BUG_ON() in vma_address() when I tried to migrate an anonymous hugepage with mbind() in the kernel v3.16-rc3. This is because pgoff's calculation in rmap_walk_anon() fails to consider compound_order() only to have an incorrect value. This patch introduces page_to_pgoff(), which gets the page's offset in PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. Kirill pointed out that page cache tree should natively handle hugepages, and in order to make hugetlbfs fit it, page->index of hugetlbfs page should be in PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. This is beyond this patch, but page_to_pgoff() contains the point to be fixed in a single function. Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

2014-07-16locking/rwsem: Reduce the size of struct rw_semaphoreJason Low1-14/+11
Recent optimistic spinning additions to rwsem provide significant performance benefits on many workloads on large machines. The cost of it was increasing the size of the rwsem structure by up to 128 bits. However, now that the previous patches in this series bring the overhead of struct optimistic_spin_queue to 32 bits, this patch reorders some fields in struct rw_semaphore such that we can reduce the overhead of the rwsem structure by 64 bits (on 64 bit systems). The extra overhead required for rwsem optimistic spinning would now be up to 8 additional bytes instead of up to 16 bytes. Additionally, the size of rwsem would now be more in line with mutexes.

2014-07-16locking/rwsem: Rename 'activity' to 'count'Peter Zijlstra1-4/+4
There are two definitions of struct rw_semaphore, one in linux/rwsem.h and one in linux/rwsem-spinlock.h. For some reason they have different names for the initial field. This makes it impossible to use C99 named initialization for __RWSEM_INITIALIZER() -- or we have to duplicate that entire thing along with the structure definitions. The simpler patch is renaming the rwsem-spinlock variant to match the regular rwsem. This allows us to switch to C99 named initialization.

2014-07-16locking/spinlocks/mcs: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overheadJason Low3-6/+24
The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using pointers to these nodes. In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t. A similar concept is used with the qspinlock. By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

2014-07-16locking/spinlocks/mcs: Rename optimistic_spin_queue() to optimistic_spin_node()Jason Low2-4/+4
Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named "optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the "optimistic_spin_queue" structure are "nodes", it might be better if we rename them to "node" anyway. This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue" to "optimistic_spin_node".

2014-07-16net-timestamp: document deprecated syststampWillem de Bruijn1-2/+4
The SO_TIMESTAMPING API defines option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HW. This feature is deprecated. It should not be implemented by new device drivers. Existing drivers do not implement it, either -- with one exception. Driver developers are encouraged to expose the NIC hw clock as a PTP HW clock source, instead, and synchronize system time to the HW source. The control flag cannot be removed due to being part of the ABI, nor can the structure scm_timestamping that is returned. Due to the one legacy driver, the internal datapath and structure are not removed. This patch only clearly marks the interface as deprecated. Device drivers should always return a syststamp value of zero.

2014-07-16net: add name_assign_type netdev attributeTom Gundersen1-0/+2
Based on a patch by David Herrmann. The name_assign_type attribute gives hints where the interface name of a given net-device comes from. These values are currently defined: NET_NAME_ENUM: The ifname is provided by the kernel with an enumerated suffix, typically based on order of discovery. Names may be reused and unpredictable. NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE: The ifname has been assigned by the kernel in a predictable way that is guaranteed to avoid reuse and always be the same for a given device. Examples include statically created devices like the loopback device and names deduced from hardware properties (including being given explicitly by the firmware). Names depending on the order of discovery, or in any other way on the existence of other devices, must not be marked as PREDICTABLE. NET_NAME_USER: The ifname was provided by user-space during net-device setup. NET_NAME_RENAMED: The net-device has been renamed from userspace. Once this type is set, it cannot change again. NET_NAME_UNKNOWN: This is an internal placeholder to indicate that we yet haven't yet categorized the name. It will not be exposed to userspace, rather -EINVAL is returned. The aim of these patches is to improve user-space renaming of interfaces. As a general rule, userspace must rename interfaces to guarantee that names stay the same every time a given piece of hardware appears (at boot, or when attaching it). However, there are several situations where userspace should not perform the renaming, and that depends on both the policy of the local admin, but crucially also on the nature of the current interface name. If an interface was created in repsonse to a userspace request, and userspace already provided a name, we most probably want to leave that name alone. The main instance of this is wifi-P2P devices created over nl80211, which currently have a long-standing bug where they are getting renamed by udev. We label such names NET_NAME_USER. If an interface, unbeknown to us, has already been renamed from userspace, we most probably want to leave also that alone. This will typically happen when third-party plugins (for instance to udev, but the interface is generic so could be from anywhere) renames the interface without informing udev about it. A typical situation is when you switch root from an installer or an initrd to the real system and the new instance of udev does not know what happened before the switch. These types of problems have caused repeated issues in the past. To solve this, once an interface has been renamed, its name is labelled NET_NAME_RENAMED. In many cases, the kernel is actually able to name interfaces in such a way that there is no need for userspace to rename them. This is the case when the enumeration order of devices, or in fact any other (non-parent) device on the system, can not influence the name of the interface. Examples include statically created devices, or any naming schemes based on hardware properties of the interface. In this case the admin may prefer to use the kernel-provided names, and to make that possible we label such names NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE. We want the kernel to have tho possibilty of performing predictable interface naming itself (and exposing to userspace that it has), as the information necessary for a proper naming scheme for a certain class of devices may not be exposed to userspace. The case where renaming is almost certainly desired, is when the kernel has given the interface a name using global device enumeration based on order of discovery (ethX, wlanY, etc). These naming schemes are labelled NET_NAME_ENUM. Lastly, a fallback is left as NET_NAME_UNKNOWN, to indicate that a driver has not yet been ported. This is mostly useful as a transitionary measure, allowing us to label the various naming schemes bit by bit. v8: minor documentation fixes v9: move comment to the right commit Signed-off-by: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no> Reviewed-by: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

But for 10GE 1 Gbps units might be too bruit so we use the following solution. For user set ratelimit <= 25 Gbps: use 100 Mbps units * user_ratelimit (* 10). For user set ratelimit > 25 Gbps: use 1 Gbps units * user_ratelimit. For user set unlimited ratelimit (0 Gbps): use 1 Gbps units * MAX_RATELIMIT_DEFAULT (57) Note: any value > 58 will damage the FW ratelimit computation, so we allow a max and any higher value will be pulled down to 57.

With this patch other modules are able to ask the bridge whether an IGMP or MLD querier exists on the according, bridged link layer. Multicast snooping can only be performed if a valid, selected querier exists on a link. Just like the bridge only enables its multicast snooping if a querier exists, e.g. batman-adv too can only activate its multicast snooping in bridged scenarios if a querier is present. For instance this export avoids having to reimplement IGMP/MLD querier message snooping and parsing in e.g. batman-adv, when multicast optimizations for bridged scenarios are added in the future.

The header file include/linux/arcdevice.h #defines bool to int, if bool is not already #defined.

Moreover, that #define is an accident waiting to happen (scenario: inclusion of arcdevice.h followed by inclusion of some header which declares function prototypes using bool). Also, #include <linux/types.h> must appear before #include <linux/arcdevice.h> (the compiler wouldn't like "typedef _Bool int"). Since none of the files using arcdevice.h declare variables of type "bool", the patch is actually quite simple, unlike the commit message.
