cf66f9d48a xen/netfront: add netconsole support.
add polling interface to xen-netfront device to support netconsole

This patch also alters the spin_lock usage to use irqsave variant.
Documentation/networking/netdevices.txt states that start_xmit
can be called with interrupts disabled by netconsole and therefore using
the irqsave/restore locking in this function is looks correct.

73db144b58 Xen: consolidate and simplify struct xenbus_driver instantiation
The 'name', 'owner', and 'mod_name' members are redundant with the
identically named fields in the 'driver' sub-structure. Rather than
switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce
a macro to simplify this.

Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to
DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from
the ID table will be used for .driver.name).

Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end()
wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the
'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore
when the macro gets used.

v2: Restore DRV_NAME for the driver name in xen-pciback.

08e34eb14f xen-netfront: delay gARP until backend switches to Connected
After a guest is live migrated, the xen-netfront driver emits a gratuitous
ARP message, so that networking hardware on the target host's subnet can
take notice, and public routing to the guest is re-established. However,
if the packet appears on the backend interface before the backend is added
to the target host's bridge, the packet is lost, and the migrated guest's
peers become unable to talk to the guest.

A sufficient two-parts condition to prevent the above is:

(1) ensure that the backend only moves to Connected xenbus state after its
hotplug scripts completed, ie. the netback interface got added to the
bridge; and

(2) ensure the frontend only queues the gARP when it sees the backend move
to Connected.

These two together provide complete ordering. Sub-condition (1) is already
satisfied by commit f942dc2552 in Linus' tree, based on commit
6b0b80ca7165 from [1].

In general, the full condition is sufficient, not necessary, because,
according to [2], live migration has been working for a long time without
satisfying sub-condition (2). However, after 6b0b80ca7165 was backported
to the RHEL-5 host to ensure (1), (2) still proved necessary in the RHEL-6
guest. This patch intends to provide (2) for upstream.

The Reviewed-by line comes from [3].

ab392d2d6d drivers/net: Remove IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM flag from network drivers
The IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM flag is marked as deprecated and will be removed.

Every input point to the kernel's entropy pool have to better document the
type of entropy source it is.

drivers/char/random.c now implements a set of interfaces that can be used for
devices to collect enviromental noise. IRQF_SAMPLE_RANDOM will be replaced
with these add_*_randomness exported functions.

Network drivers are not a good source of entropy. They use as a source of
entropy essentially a remote host. Which means that the source of entropy can
be potentially controlled by an attacker. Also, with heavy workloads the
entropy decreases due to less hardware interrupts happening thanks to irq
mitigation and NAPI.

If a system relies in its network interface as a entropy source it has a false
sense of security. Systems that don't have devices whose drivers are good
sources of entropy, should either use a hardware random number generator or
feed the kernel's entropy pool from userspace using other sources of entropy
such as EGD, video_entropyd, timer_entropyd and audio-entropyd.

f942dc2552 xen network backend driver
netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in
drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by
frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows.

The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but
has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual
cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from
drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback.

One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what
looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove
the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel
patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final
put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map
based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB
frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into
regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant
map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the
future.

Note that this driver depends on 2e820f58f7 "xen/irq: implement
bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in
linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge
window:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends
this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for
cross merging into the net branch.

e0ce4af920 xen: netfront: handle incoming GSO SKBs which are not CHECKSUM_PARTIAL
The Linux network stack expects all GSO SKBs to have ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (which implies that the frame contains a partial
checksum) and the Xen network ring protocol similarly expects an SKB
which has GSO set to also have NETRX_csum_blank (which also implies a
partial checksum).

However there have been cases of buggy guests which mark a frame as
GSO but do not set csum_blank. If we detect that we a receiving such a
frame (which manifests as ip_summed != PARTIAL && skb_is_gso) then
force the SKB to partial and recalculate the checksum, since we cannot
rely on the peer having done so if they have not set csum_blank.

Add an ethtool stat to track occurances of this event.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

1b713e0050 xen: remove driver_data direct access of struct device from more drivers
In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access
to the driver_data pointer in struct device.  Instead, the functions
dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used.  These functions
have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with
all older kernel versions.

a144ff09bc xen: Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path
Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path by
preventing the allocations from doing IO and allowing them
to access the emergency pools.

These paths are used when a frontend device is trying to connect
to its backend driver over Xenbus.  These reconnections are triggered
on demand by IO, so by definition there is already IO underway,
and further IO would naturally deadlock.  On resume, this path
is triggered when the running system tries to continue using its
devices.  If it cannot then the resume will fail; to try to avoid this
we let it dip into the emergency pools.

88d3aafdae [ETHTOOL] Provide default behaviors for a few ethtool sub-ioctls
For the operations
	get-tx-csum
	get-sg
	get-tso
	get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.

This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.

The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case.  Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a
later date.

09f75cd7bf [NET] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code
We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable.

This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.

10d024c1b2 [NET]: Nuke SET_MODULE_OWNER macro.
It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

5dcddfae63 xen-netfront: remove dead code
This patch removes some residual dead code left over from removing the
"flip" receive mode.  This patch doesn't change the generated output
at all, since gcc already realized it was dead.

This resolves the "regression" reported by Adrian.

bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Bug fixes from Thomas Graf, Roland Dreier, Peter Zijlstra,
Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

[ Ported to current tree and all drivers converted.  Integrated
  Stephen's follow-on kerneldoc additions, and restored poll_list
  handling to the old style to fix mutual exclusion issues.  -DaveM ]
