net: filter: return -EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported
Currently, we return -EINVAL for malformed or wrong BPF filters.
However, this is not done for BPF_S_ANC* operations, which makes it
more difficult to detect if it's actually supported or not by the
BPF machine. Therefore, we should also return -EINVAL if K is within
the SKF_AD_OFF universe and the ancillary operation did not match.
Why exactly is it needed? If tools such as libpcap/tcpdump want to
make use of new ancillary operations (like filtering VLAN in kernel
space), there is currently no sane way to test if this feature /
BPF_S_ANC* op is present or not, since no error is returned. This
patch will make life easier for that and allow for a proper usage
for user space applications.
There was concern, if this patch will break userland. Short answer: Yes
and no. Long answer: It will "break" only for code that calls ...
{ BPF_LD | BPF_(W|H|B) | BPF_ABS, 0, 0, <K> },
... where <K> is in [0xfffff000, 0xffffffff] _and_ <K> is *not* an
ancillary. And here comes the BUT: assuming some *old* code will have
such an instruction where <K> is between [0xfffff000, 0xffffffff] and
it doesn't know ancillary operations, then this will give a
non-expected / unwanted behavior as well (since we do not return the
BPF machine with 0 after a failed load_pointer(), which was the case
before introducing ancillary operations, but load sth. into the
accumulator instead, and continue with the next instruction, for
instance). Thus, user space code would already have been broken by
introducing ancillary operations into the BPF machine per se. Code
that does such a direct load, e.g. "load word at packet offset
0xffffffff into accumulator" ("ld [0xffffffff]") is quite broken,
isn't it? The whole assumption of ancillary operations is that no-one
intentionally calls things like "ld [0xffffffff]" and expect this
word to be loaded from such a packet offset. Hence, we can also safely
make use of this feature testing patch and facilitate application
development. Therefore, at least from this patch onwards, we have
*for sure* a check whether current or in future implemented BPF_S_ANC*
ops are supported in the kernel. Patch was tested on x86_64.

RFC 793 3.9 mandates TCP should drop a frame without ACK flag set.

mm: Fix PageHead when !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED
Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and
(PageHead) is true, for tail pages. If this is indeed the intended
behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM
systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic.
This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail
is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages.
[ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr
2008 in commit
6a1e7f777f61: "pageflags: convert to the use of new

pages that are actual page heads. The fact that the old code returned
true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable. - Linus ]

f0ed2ce840b3 ("[media] uvcvideo: Set error_idx properly for

on one of my test machines (there is no sound under KDE 4.9.4 using

However, commit
f0ed2ce840b3 appears to do more than it follows from its
changelog, because the changelog only says about the changes related to
ctrls->error_idx, while the commit additionally changes error codes
returned by various functions in uvc_ctrl.c and uvc_v4l2.c. It turns
out that the changes of the returned error codes confuse the user spce,
so it is sufficient to revert the part of commit
f0ed2ce840b3 not
mentioned in its changelog to fix the problem.

hwmon: (lm73} Detect and report i2c bus errors
If an LM73 device does not exist on an I2C bus, attempts to communicate
with the device result in an error code returned from the i2c read/write
functions. The current lm73 driver casts that return value from a s32
type to a s16 type, then converts it to a temperature in celsius.
Because negative temperatures are valid, it is difficult to distinguish
between an error code printed to the response buffer and a negative
temperature recorded by the sensor.
The solution is to evaluate the return value from the i2c functions
before performing any temperature calculations. If the i2c function did
not succeed, the error code should be passed back through the virtual
file system layer instead of being printed into the response buffer.
Before:
$ cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/temp1_input
-46
After:
$ cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/temp1_input
cat: read error: No such device or address

Bug is from arp_solicit(), releasing the neigh lock after arp_send()
In case of vxlan, we eventually need to write lock a neigh lock later.
Its a false positive, but we can get rid of it without lockdep
annotations.
We can instead use neigh_ha_snapshot() helper.

Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target.
Targets can set this field in the constructor. If a target sets this
field to a non-zero value, "per_bio_data_size" bytes of auxiliary data
are allocated for each bio submitted to the target. These data can be
used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by
removing some per-target mempools.
Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The
argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in
dm_target.
If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to
the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the
same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

dm kcopyd: add WRITE SAME support to dm_kcopyd_zero
Add WRITE SAME support to dm-io and make it accessible to
dm_kcopyd_zero(). dm_kcopyd_zero() provides an asynchronous interface
whereas the blkdev_issue_write_same() interface is synchronous.
WRITE SAME is a SCSI command that can be leveraged for more efficient
zeroing of a specified logical extent of a device which supports it.
Only a single zeroed logical block is transfered to the target for each
WRITE SAME and the target then writes that same block across the
specified extent.
The dm thin target uses this.

dm linear: add WRITE SAME support
The linear target can already support WRITE SAME requests so signal
this by setting num_write_same_requests to 1.

dm: add WRITE SAME support
WRITE SAME bios have a payload that contain a single page. When
cloning WRITE SAME bios DM has no need to modify the bi_io_vec
attributes (and doing so would be detrimental). DM need only alter the
start and end of the WRITE SAME bio accordingly.
Rather than duplicate __clone_and_map_discard, factor out a common
function that is also used by __clone_and_map_write_same.

dm: prepare to support WRITE SAME
Allow targets to opt in to WRITE SAME support by setting
'num_write_same_requests' in the dm_target structure.
A dm device will only advertise WRITE SAME support if all its
targets and all its underlying devices support it.

dm ioctl: use kmalloc if possible
If the parameter buffer is small enough, try to allocate it with kmalloc()
rather than vmalloc().
vmalloc is noticeably slower than kmalloc because it has to manipulate
page tables.
In my tests, on PA-RISC this patch speeds up activation 13 times.
On Opteron this patch speeds up activation by 5%.
This patch introduces a new function free_params() to free the
parameters and this uses new flags that record whether or not vmalloc()
was used and whether or not the input buffer must be wiped after use.
