57962f0b9d libertas: reduce command retry time
[PATCH, take 2] libertas: reduce command retry time

In the normal case, an unsuccessful command would be retried for 10*5 seconds,
or 10*10 seconds in the worst case. This patch reduces this to 3*3 seconds,
or 3*10 seconds in the worst case.

I also reduced the time it takes to start a new command downloaded.

3282aea9ea mac80211: Do not report false error from mesh_path_add.
In case the hash grow failed, it is not fair to return error -
the new node _was_ _actually_ added in this case.

Besides, after my previous patch, this grow is more likely
to fail on large hashes.

8566dc3fca mac80211: Fix sleeping allocation under lock in mesh_path_node_copy.
The mesh_path_node_copy() can be called like this:
mesh_path_add
 `- write_lock(&pathtbl_resize_lock); /* ! */
 `- mesh_table_grow
     `- ->copy_node
           `- mesh_path_node_copy

thus, the GFP_KERNEL is not suitable here.

The acceptable fix, I suppose, is make this allocation GPF_ATOMIC -
the mpath_node being allocated is 4 pointers, i.e. this allocation
is small enough to survive even under a moderate memory pressure.

The mesh_path_node_copy() performs kmalloc() and thus - may fail

5194ee82b4 mac80211: Fix one more call to synchronize_rcu in atomic context.
(This set applies OK without the previous one of 4 patches,
 but with some fuzz in the 7th one)

The mesh_path_node_free() does so under hashwlock.

But, this one is called
1. from mesh_path_add() after an old hash is hidden and
   synchronize_rcu() is calld
2. mesh_pathtbl_unregister(), when the module is being
   unloaded and no devices exist to mess with this hash.

So, it seems to me, that simply removing the call is OK.

75bf45a7b4 libertas: fix multicast filtering on eth and msh interfaces
We weren't properly handling multicast on the mesh interface. Fix that,
which involves setting up the hardware to use the union of dev->mc_list
for both eth%d and msh%d devices.

This means we can't do it directly from ->set_multicast_list() because
we'd need to lock the other device to read its list, and we can't do
that because it might deadlock. So punt the actual work to keventd.

Also, invoke the same when taking an interface down; for some reason the
core calls ->set_multicast_list while IFF_UP is still set in dev->flags
when we're taking it down, so its addresses don't get removed then.

We also convert MAC_MULTICAST_ADR to a direct command while we're at it,
removing one more entry from the big switch statement in the deprecated
lbs_prepare_and_send_command() function.

The mesh stats bug, where we converted MESH_ACCESS to a direct command

lbs_prepare_and_send_command(), would have been caught a lot quicker if
we'd done this sooner. Such bugs aren't entirely unlikely in future too,
as we convert more code to stop using this function.

7050ec821c rt2x00: Split rt2x00lib_write_tx_desc()
Split rt2x00lib_write_tx_desc() up into a TX descriptor initializor
and TX descriptor writer.

This split is required to properly allow mac80211 to move its
tx_control structure into the skb->cb array.
The rt2x00queue_create_tx_descriptor() function will read all tx control
information and convert it into a rt2x00 TX descriptor information structure.
After that function is complete, we have all information we needed from the
tx control structure and are free to start writing into the skb->cb array
for our own purposes.
rt2x00queue_write_tx_descriptor() will be in charge of really sending
the TX descriptor to the hardware and kicking the TX queue.

70a9610943 rt2x00: Preserve descriptor information after memmove()
Due to usage of memmove() in rt2x00usb the descriptor can become
corrupted because it is being overwritten by the data part.
Overall having the descriptor in front of the frame is a bad idea,
we can however use the skb->cb array for this task, since that
contains more then enough room to hold the entire descriptor and
preserve the information long enough.

After this we can also cleanup the alignment code a bit to make it
work a bit more flexible to allow for all kinds of odd header lengths.

61448f8807 rt2x00: Fix queue related oops in case of deselected mac80211 multi-queue feature.
With the integration of the mac80211 multiqueue patches it has become possible that the
mac80211 layer modifies the number of TX queues that is stored inside the ieee80211_hw
structure, especially when multi-queue is not selected.

The rt2x00 drivers are not well suited to handle that situation, as they allocate the
queue structures before mac80211 has modified the number of queues it is going to use,
and also expect the number of allocated queues to match the hardware implementation.

Hence, ensure that rt2x00 maintains by itself the number of queues that the hardware
supports, and, at the same time, making is not dependent on the preservation of contents
inside a mac80211 structure.

fb55f4d1fa rt2x00: Fix TX status reporting
The tx_status enumeration was broken since the introduction
of rt61pci. That driver uses different values to report the
status of the tx action.
This would lead to frames that were reported as success but
actually failed to be send out, or frames that were neither
successfull or failure which were reported as failure.

Fix this by change the TX status reporting and more explicitely
check for failure or success. Note that a third possibility is
added "unknown". Not all hardware (USB) can report the actual
TX status, for rt61pci some frames will receive this status
because the TXdone handler is never called for those frames.
This unknown will now be handled as neither success or failure,
so we no longer increment the failure counter while this conclusion
could not be determined from the real status of the frame.

This trim is required to help mac80211 with adding

skb->cb structure. When that happens, drivers will
have approximately 40 bytes left to use freely.

28353e7fad tipc: Consolidate subscriber & subscriber port references
This patch modifies TIPC's network topology service so that it
only requires a single reference table entry per subscriber
connection, rather than two.  This is achieved by letting the
reference to the server port communicating with the subscriber
act as the reference to the subscriber object itself.  (Since
the subscriber cannot exist without its port, and vice versa,
this dual role for the reference is perfectly natural.)  This
consolidation reduces the size of the reference table by 50%
in the default configuration.

9a120bc570 bnx2: Allow phy reset to be skipped during chip reset.
Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> found that netconsole would
panic when resetting bnx2 devices.

>From Andy:
"The issue is the bnx2_set_link in bnx2_init_nic will print a link-status
message before we are fully initialized and ready to start polling.
Polling is currently disabled in this state, but since the
__LINK_STATE_RX_SCHED is overloaded to not only try and disable polling
but also to make the system aware there is something waiting to be
polled, we really have to fix this in drivers.

The problematic call is the one to netif_rx_complete as it tries to
remove an entry from the poll_list when there isn't one."

While this netconsole problem should be fixed separately, we really
should not reset the PHY when changing ring sizes, MTU, or other
similar settings.  The PHY reset causes several seconds of unnecessary
link disruptions.

a1a61a435b atm: Cleanup atm_tcp.h and atm.h for userspace.
The atm_tcp.h uses types from linux/atm.h, but does not include it.
It should also use the standard __u## types from linux/types.h rather
than the uint##_t types since the former can be found with the kernel
already.

Same goes for linux/atm.h.  The linux/socket.h include there also gets
dropped as atm.h does not actually use anything from socket.h.

38d2f38be9 bonding: handle case of device named bonding_master
If device already exists named bonding_masters, then fail. This is a wierd
corner case only a QA group could love.

0599ad53fe sysfs: remove error messages for -EEXIST case
It is possible that the entry in sysfs already exists, one case of this is
when a network device is renamed to bonding_masters. Anyway, in this case
the proper error path is for device_rename to return an error code, not to
generate bogus backtrace and errors.

Also, to avoid possible races, the create link should be done before the
remove link. This makes a device rename atomic operation like other renames.
