net/fsl_pq_mdio: streamline probing of MDIO nodes
Make the device tree probe function more data-driven, so that it no longer
searches the 'compatible' property more than once. The of_device_id[] array
allows for per-entry private data, so we use that to store details about each
type of node that the driver supports. This removes the need to check the
'compatible' property inside the probe function.
The driver supports four types on MDIO devices:
1) Gianfar MDIO nodes that only map the MII registers
2) Gianfar MDIO nodes that map the full MDIO register set
3) eTSEC2 MDIO nodes (which map the full MDIO register set)
4) QE MDIO nodes (which map only the MII registers)
Gianfar, eTSEC2, and QE have different mappings for the TBIPA register, which
is needed to initialize the TBI PHY. In addition, the QE needs a special
hack because of the way the device tree is ordered.
All of this information is encapsulated in the fsl_pq_mdio_data structure,
so when an MDIO node is probed, per-device data and functions are used
to determine how to initialize the device.

the driver will recover from it when initializing the device.
It does the equivalent of the following recovery sequence:
- write NVREG_TX_PAUSEFRAME_ENABLE_V1 to eth1's register
NvRegTxPauseFrame
- write NVREG_XMITCTL_START to eth1's register
NvRegTransmitterControl
- write 0 to eth1's register NvRegTransmitterControl

- reboot a kernel without any of patches mentioned
- freeze the NIC (details on description for commit "net-forcedeth:

On some dual-port forcedeth devices such as MCP55 10de:0373 (rev a3),

network unreachable).
This patch ensures that TX pause is not configured in hardware when
interface is down. The TX pause request will be honored when interface
is later configured.
Tested:
- hardware is MCP55 device id 10de:0373 (rev a3), dual-port

- without this patch, following sequence would brick NIC:
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth1 up

ifconfig eth1 up
ifconfig eth1 down
ethtool -A eth1 autoneg on rx on tx on
ifconfig eth1 up
ifconfig eth1 down
ifup eth0
sleep 120 # or longer
ethtool eth1
Just in case, sequence to un-brick:
ifconfig eth0 down
ethtool -A eth1 autoneg off rx on tx off
ifconfig eth1 up
ifconfig eth1 down
ifup eth0
- with this patch: no TX timeout after "bricking" sequence above
Details:
- The following register accesses have been identified as the ones
causing the NIC to freeze in "bricking" sequence above:
- write NVREG_TX_PAUSEFRAME_ENABLE_V1 to eth1's register NvRegTxPauseFrame
- write NVREG_MISC1_PAUSE_TX | NVREG_MISC1_FORCE to eth1's register NvRegMisc1

2. Although we cancel the reset work item during device removal,

net: Set device operstate at registration time
The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated
asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state
reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is
on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support
carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN.
For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the
carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the
device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a
unregistered device, and commit
b473001 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch
events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But
this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier
detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN.
The same issue exists with the dormant state.
The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of
the device, is:
rtnl_lock();
rc = register_netdevice(dev);
if (rc)
goto out_unlock;
netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */
rtnl_unlock();
but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many
drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the
device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of
linkwatch.
Commit
22604c8 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted
to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was
reverted as it could lead to deadlock.
This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time
only.

batman-adv: detect not yet announced clients
With the current TT mechanism a new client joining the network is not
immediately able to communicate with other hosts because its MAC address has not
been announced yet. This situation holds until the first OGM containing its
joining event will be spread over the mesh network.
This behaviour can be acceptable in networks where the originator interval is a
small value (e.g. 1sec) but if that value is set to an higher time (e.g. 5secs)
the client could suffer from several malfunctions like DHCP client timeouts,
etc.
This patch adds an early detection mechanism that makes nodes in the network
able to recognise "not yet announced clients" by means of the broadcast packets
they emitted on connection (e.g. ARP or DHCP request). The added client will
then be confirmed upon receiving the OGM claiming it or purged if such OGM
is not received within a fixed amount of time.

Similar thing was then re-introduced by further packet diag patches (fanount
mutex and pgvec mutex for rings) :(
Apart from being terribly sorry for the above, I propose to change the packet
sk list protection from spinlock to mutex. This lock currently protects two
modifications:
* sklist
* prot inuse counters
The sklist modifications can be just reprotected with mutex since they already
occur in a sleeping context. The inuse counters modifications are trickier -- the
__this_cpu_-s are used inside, thus requiring the caller to handle the potential
issues with contexts himself. Since packet sockets' counters are modified in two
places only (packet_create and packet_release) we only need to protect the context
from being preempted. BH disabling is not required in this case.

bonding: support for IPv6 transmit hashing
Currently the "bonding" driver does not support load balancing outgoing
traffic in LACP mode for IPv6 traffic. IPv4 (and TCP or UDP over IPv4)
are currently supported; this patch adds transmit hashing for IPv6 (and
TCP or UDP over IPv6), bringing IPv6 up to par with IPv4 support in the
bonding driver. In addition, bounds checking has been added to all
transmit hashing functions.
The algorithm chosen (xor'ing the bottom three quads of the source and
destination addresses together, then xor'ing each byte of that result into
the bottom byte, finally xor'ing with the last bytes of the MAC addresses)
was selected after testing almost 400,000 unique IPv6 addresses harvested
from server logs. This algorithm had the most even distribution for both
big- and little-endian architectures while still using few instructions. Its
behavior also attempts to closely match that of the IPv4 algorithm.
The IPv6 flow label was intentionally not included in the hash as it appears
to be unset in the vast majority of IPv6 traffic sampled, and the current
algorithm not using the flow label already offers a very even distribution.
Fragmented IPv6 packets are handled the same way as fragmented IPv4 packets,
ie, they are not balanced based on layer 4 information. Additionally,
IPv6 packets with intermediate headers are not balanced based on layer
4 information. In practice these intermediate headers are not common and
this should not cause any problems, and the alternative (a packet-parsing
loop and look-up table) seemed slow and complicated for little gain.

This is the first batch of Netfilter and IPVS updates for your
net-next tree. Mostly cleanups for the Netfilter side. They are:
* Remove unnecessary RTNL locking now that we have support
for namespace in nf_conntrack, from Patrick McHardy.
* Cleanup to eliminate unnecessary goto in the initialization
path of several Netfilter tables, from Jean Sacren.
* Another cleanup from Wu Fengguang, this time to PTR_RET instead
of if IS_ERR then return PTR_ERR.
* Use list_for_each_entry_continue_rcu in nf_iterate, from
Michael Wang.
* Add pmtu_disc sysctl option to disable PMTU in their tunneling
transmitter, from Julian Anastasov.
* Generalize application protocol registration in IPVS and modify
IPVS FTP helper to use it, from Julian Anastasov.
* update Kconfig. The IPVS FTP helper depends on the Netfilter FTP
helper for NAT support, from Julian Anastasov.
* Add logic to update PMTU for IPIP packets in IPVS, again
from Julian Anastasov.
* A couple of sparse warning fixes for IPVS and Netfilter from
Claudiu Ghioc and Patrick McHardy respectively.
Patrick's IPv6 NAT changes will follow after this batch, I need
to flush this batch first before refreshing my tree.

netfilter: remove unnecessary goto statement for error recovery
Usually it's a good practice to use goto statement for error recovery
when initializing the module. This approach could be an overkill if:
1) there is only one fail case;
2) success and failure use the same return statement.
For a cleaner approach, remove the unnecessary goto statement and
directly implement error recovery.

There was other data but primarily it is all showing that compaction is
contended heavily on the zone->lock and zone->lru_lock.
commit [
b2eef8c0: mm: compaction: minimise the time IRQs are disabled
while isolating pages for migration] noted that it was possible for
migration to hold the lru_lock for an excessive amount of time. Very
broadly speaking this patch expands the concept.
This patch introduces compact_checklock_irqsave() to check if a lock
is contended or the process needs to be scheduled. If either condition
is true then async compaction is aborted and the caller is informed.
The page allocator will fail a THP allocation if compaction failed due
to contention. This patch also introduces compact_trylock_irqsave()
which will acquire the lock only if it is not contended and the process
does not need to schedule.

mm: have order > 0 compaction start near a pageblock with free pages
Commit
7db8889ab05b ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it
left") introduced a caching mechanism to reduce the amount work the free
page scanner does in compaction. However, it has a problem. Consider
two process simultaneously scanning free pages
C
Process A M S F
|---------------------------------------|
Process B M FS
C is zone->compact_cached_free_pfn
S is cc->start_pfree_pfn
M is cc->migrate_pfn
F is cc->free_pfn
In this diagram, Process A has just reached its migrate scanner, wrapped
around and updated compact_cached_free_pfn accordingly.
Simultaneously, Process B finishes isolating in a block and updates
compact_cached_free_pfn again to the location of its free scanner.
Process A moves to "end_of_zone - one_pageblock" and runs this check
if (cc->order > 0 && (!cc->wrapped ||
zone->compact_cached_free_pfn >
cc->start_free_pfn))
pfn = min(pfn, zone->compact_cached_free_pfn);
compact_cached_free_pfn is above where it started so the free scanner
skips almost the entire space it should have scanned. When there are
multiple processes compacting it can end in a situation where the entire
zone is not being scanned at all. Further, it is possible for two
processes to ping-pong update to compact_cached_free_pfn which is just
random.
Overall, the end result wrecks allocation success rates.
There is not an obvious way around this problem without introducing new
locking and state so this patch takes a different approach.
First, it gets rid of the skip logic because it's not clear that it
matters if two free scanners happen to be in the same block but with
racing updates it's too easy for it to skip over blocks it should not.
Second, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn in a more limited set of
circumstances.
If a scanner has wrapped, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn to the end
of the zone. When a wrapped scanner isolates a page, it updates
compact_cached_free_pfn to point to the highest pageblock it
can isolate pages from.
If a scanner has not wrapped when it has finished isolated pages it
checks if compact_cached_free_pfn is pointing to the end of the
zone. If so, the value is updated to point to the highest
pageblock that pages were isolated from. This value will not
be updated again until a free page scanner wraps and resets
compact_cached_free_pfn.
This is not optimal and it can still race but the compact_cached_free_pfn
will be pointing to or very near a pageblock with free pages.

drivers/rtc/rtc-rs5c348.c: fix hour decoding in 12-hour mode
Correct the offset by subtracting 20 from tm_hour before taking the
modulo 12.
[ "Why 20?" I hear you ask. Or at least I did.
Here's the reason why: RS5C348_BIT_PM is 32, and is - stupidly -
included in the RS5C348_HOURS_MASK define. So it's really subtracting
out that bit to get "hour+12". But then because it does things modulo
12, it needs to add the 12 in again afterwards anyway.
This code is confused. It would be much clearer if RS5C348_HOURS_MASK
just didn't include the RS5C348_BIT_PM bit at all, then it wouldn't
need to do the silly subtract either.
Whatever. It's all just math, the end result is the same. - Linus ]

So, in __slab_alloc, the unalignment pfmemalloc and ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
cause incorrect deactivate_slab() on our core2 server:
