git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/urgent
Pull two RCU fixes from Paul E. McKenney:
" - Complete the work of commit dd56af42bd82 (rcu: Eliminate deadlock
between CPU hotplug and expedited grace periods), which was
intended to allow synchronize_sched_expedited() to be safely
used when holding locks acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers.
This commit makes the put_online_cpus() avoid the deadlock
instead of just handling the get_online_cpus().
- Complete the work of commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo
kthreads only for onlined CPUs), which was intended to allow
RCU to avoid allocating unneeded kthreads on systems where the
firmware says that there are more CPUs than are really present.
This commit makes rcu_barrier() aware of the mismatch, so that
it doesn't hang waiting for non-existent CPUs. "

Commit 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") changed
page migration to uncharge the old page right away. The page is locked,
unmapped, truncated, and off the LRU, but it could race with writeback
ending, which then doesn't unaccount the page properly:
test_clear_page_writeback() migration
wait_on_page_writeback()
TestClearPageWriteback()
mem_cgroup_migrate()
clear PCG_USED
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
if (PageCgroupUsed(pc))
decrease memcg pages under writeback
release pc->mem_cgroup->move_lock
The per-page statistics interface is heavily optimized to avoid a
function call and a lookup_page_cgroup() in the file unmap fast path,
which means it doesn't verify whether a page is still charged before
clearing PageWriteback() and it has to do it in the stat update later.
Rework it so that it looks up the page's memcg once at the beginning of
the transaction and then uses it throughout. The charge will be
verified before clearing PageWriteback() and migration can't uncharge
the page as long as that is still set. The RCU lock will protect the
memcg past uncharge.
As far as losing the optimization goes, the following test results are
from a microbenchmark that maps, faults, and unmaps a 4GB sparse file
three times in a nested fashion, so that there are two negative passes
that don't account but still go through the new transaction overhead.
There is no actual difference:
old: 33.195102545 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.01% )
new: 33.199231369 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.03% )
The time spent in page_remove_rmap()'s callees still adds up to the
same, but the time spent in the function itself seems reduced:
# Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
old: 0.12% 0.11% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap
new: 0.12% 0.08% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap

If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
collapse this memory into thp memory.
This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags
until the final action of madvise_behavior(). This causes the
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.
Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
handler. There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem.
It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags
in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
behavior into madvise_behavior(). I think it's best to just let it
always set vma->vm_flags itself.

Add a sysctl that causes an interface's optimistic addresses
to be considered equivalent to other non-deprecated addresses
for source address selection purposes. Preferred addresses
will still take precedence over optimistic addresses, subject
to other ranking in the source address selection algorithm.
This is useful where different interfaces are connected to
different networks from different ISPs (e.g., a cell network
and a home wifi network).
The current behaviour complies with RFC 3484/6724, and it
makes sense if the host has only one interface, or has
multiple interfaces on the same network (same or cooperating
administrative domain(s), but not in the multiple distinct
networks case.
For example, if a mobile device has an IPv6 address on an LTE
network and then connects to IPv6-enabled wifi, while the wifi
IPv6 address is undergoing DAD, IPv6 connections will try use
the wifi default route with the LTE IPv6 address, and will get
stuck until they time out.
Also, because optimistic nodes can receive frames, issue
an RTM_NEWADDR as soon as DAD starts (with the IFA_F_OPTIMSTIC
flag appropriately set). A second RTM_NEWADDR is sent if DAD
completes (the address flags have changed), otherwise an
RTM_DELADDR is sent.
Also: add an entry in ip-sysctl.txt for optimistic_dad.

While testing upcoming Yaogong patch (converting out of order queue
into an RB tree), I hit the max reordering level of linux TCP stack.
Reordering level was limited to 127 for no good reason, and some
network setups [1] can easily reach this limit and get limited
throughput.
Allow a new max limit of 300, and add a sysctl to allow admins to even
allow bigger (or lower) values if needed.

deep packet inspections, alternative TCP congestion modules...

The original motivation for this change was to allow the helper to be used
in files other than actions.c as part of work on an odp select group
action.
It was as pointed out by Thomas Graf that this helper would be best off
living in netlink.h. Furthermore, I think that the generic nature of this
helper means it is best off in netlink.h regardless of if it is used more
than one .c file or not. Thus, I would like it considered independent of
the work on an odp select group action.

Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs)
avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This
fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their
age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have.
Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless
rcuo kthreads being created.
It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the
people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but
I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing
piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to
post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because
otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies
about the number of CPUs.
It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on
any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately
does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending
callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks
that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system.
Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an
rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error
in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at
boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU
before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal
to invoke rcu_barrier().
So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to
CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it
complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some
pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo
kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but
to hang indefinitely.

The bug referenced by the comment in this commit was not
completely fixed in GCC 4.8.2, as I mentioned in a thread back
in February:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/12/797
The conclusion at that time was to make the quirk unconditional
until the bug could be found and fixed in GCC. Unfortunately,
when I submitted the patch (commit a9f18034) I left a comment
in that claimed the bug was fixed in GCC 4.8.2+.
This comment is inaccurate, and should be removed.

This feature is defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.23.13. It allows
the AP devices to keep track of the hardware-address-to-IP-address
mapping of the mobile devices within the WLAN network.
The AP will learn this mapping via observing DHCP, ARP, and NS/NA
frames. When a request for such information is made (i.e. ARP request,
Neighbor Solicitation), the AP will respond on behalf of the
associated mobile device. In the process of doing so, the AP will drop
the multicast request frame that was intended to go out to the wireless
medium.
It was recommended at the LKS workshop to do this implementation in
the bridge layer. vxlan.c is already doing something very similar.
The DHCP snooping code will be added to the userspace application
(hostapd) per the recommendation.
This RFC commit is only for IPv4. A similar approach in the bridge
layer will be taken for IPv6 as well.

Some devices have multiple bands enables in the EEPROM data, even though
they are only calibrated for one. Allow platform data to disable
unsupported bands.

On some devices (especially little-endian ones), the flash EEPROM data
has a different endian, which needs to be detected.
Add a flag to the platform data to allow overriding that behavior

This patch adds a generic valid psdu length check function helper. This
is useful to check the length field after receiving. For example the
at86rf231 doesn't filter invalid psdu length. Sometimes the CRC can also
be correct. If we get the lqi value with an invalid frame length the
kernel may crash because we dereference an invalid pointer in the
receive buffer.

Tasklets have much less overhead than workqueues. This patch also
removes the heap allocation for the worker on receiving path.
Like mac80211 we should prefer use a tasklet here instead a workqueue to
getting fast out of interrupt context when ieee802154_rx_irqsafe is
called by driver. Like wireless inside the tasklet context we should
call netif_receive_skb instead netif_rx_ni anymore.

As we have decouple decompression from data delivery we can now rename all
occurences of process_data in receive path.

Separating skb delivery from decompression ensures that we can support further
decompression schemes and removes the mixed return value of error codes with
NET_RX_FOO.

This is useful when creating virtual interfaces.
Keeps udev from mucking with things it shouldn't, since
the default MAC is never seen by udev when specified on
the cmd-line during creation.

This will be helpful when using the mac80211_hwsim
wiphys and automated testing. Let user create the
vifs as needed, and named as expected.
