0a2fbac197 net: sctp: decouple cleaning some socket data from endpoint
Rather instead of having the endpoint clean the garbage from the
socket, use a sk_destruct handler sctp_destruct_sock(), that does
the job for that when there are no more references on the socket.
At least do this for our crypto transform through crypto_free_hash()
that is allocated when in listening state.

Also, perform sctp_put_port() only when sk is valid. At a later
point in time we can still determine if there's an option of
placing this into sk_prot->unhash() or sctp_endpoint_free() without
any races. For now, leave it in sctp_endpoint_destroy() though.

52db882f3f net: sctp: migrate cookie life from timeval to ktime
Currently, SCTP code defines its own timeval functions (since timeval
is rarely used inside the kernel by others), namely tv_lt() and
TIMEVAL_ADD() macros, that operate on SCTP cookie expiration.

We might as well remove all those, and operate directly on ktime
structures for a couple of reasons: ktime is available on all archs;
complexity of ktime calculations depending on the arch is less than
(reduces to a simple arithmetic operations on archs with
BITS_PER_LONG == 64 or CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR) or equal to timeval
functions (other archs); code becomes more readable; macros can be
thrown out.

2b9651d72d ipv6: remove old token ipv6 address as soon as possible
If the tokenized ip address is re-set on an interface we depend on the
arrival of a new router advertisment to call addrconf_verify to clean
up the old address (which valid_lft is now set to 0). Old addresses can
linger around for a longer time if e.g. the source of router advertisments
vanishes.

So, call addrconf_verify immediately after setting the new tokenized
address to get rid of the old tokenized addresses.

876fd05ddb ipv6: don't disable interface if last ipv6 address is removed
The reason behind this change is that as soon as we delete
the last ipv6 address of an interface we also lose the
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<interface> directory. This seems to be a
usability problem for me.

I don't see any reason why we should shutdown ipv6 on that interface in
such cases.

b7b1bfce0b ipv6: split duplicate address detection and router solicitation timer
This patch splits the timers for duplicate address detection and router
solicitations apart. The router solicitations timer goes into inet6_dev
and the dad timer stays in inet6_ifaddr.

The reason behind this patch is to reduce the number of unneeded router
solicitations send out by the host if additional link-local addresses
are created. Currently we send out RS for every link-local address on
an interface.

If the RS timer fires we pick a source address with ipv6_get_lladdr. This
change could hurt people adding additional link-local addresses and
specifying these addresses in the radvd clients section because we
no longer guarantee that we use every ll address as source address in
router solicitations.

bcbde0d449 net: netlink: virtual tap device management
Similarly to the networking receive path with ptype_all taps, we add
the possibility to register netdevices that are for ARPHRD_NETLINK to
the netlink subsystem, so that those can be used for netlink analyzers
resp. debuggers. We do not offer a direct callback function as out-of-tree
modules could do crap with it. Instead, a netdevice must be registered
properly and only receives a clone, managed by the netlink layer. Symbols
are exported as GPL-only.

aeb193ea6c net: Unmap fragment page once iterator is done
Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read()
even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the
one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page.

With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling
skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally
intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda), that is, only call
skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

7e2f934dc5 Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next
John W. Linville says:

====================
I would guess that this is the last big wireless pull request before
the 3.11 merge window...

Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"I have a number of mesh fixes and improvements from Colleen, Jacob,
Ashok and Thomas, powersave fixes in mac80211 from Alex, improved
management-TX from Antonio, and a few various things, including locking
fixes, from others and myself. Overall though, nothing really stands
out."

As for the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:

"Emmanuel contributed two AP mode fixes, removed an unused field, fixed a
comment and added a warning for something that shouldn't happen in
practice, and I removed the declaration of a function that doesn't even
exist and cleaned up a small include."

"This time I have a number of cleanups, a small fix from Emmanuel and two
performance improvements that combined reduce our driver's CPU
utilisation as much as 75% in high TX-throughput scenarios."

"These two patches fix two issues with using rfkill randomly during
traffic, which would then cause our driver to stop working and not be
able to recover at all."

Regarding the ath6kl bits, Kalle says:

"Here are few simple patches for ath6kl. We have a suspend crash fix for
USB from Shafi, use of mac_pton(), a compiler warning fix and a fix for
module initialisation error path."

Kalle also sends the biggest single item of note, the new ath10k
driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac CQA98xx devices.

Included is an NFC pull, of which Samuel says:

"These are the pending NFC patches for the 3.11 merge window.

It contains the pending fixes that were on nfc-fixes (nfc-fixes-3.10-2),
along with a few more for the pn544 and pn533 drivers, the LLCP
disconnection path and an LLCP memory leak.

Highlights for this one are:

- An initial secure element API. NFC chipsets can carry an embedded
  secure element or get access to the SIM one. In both cases they
  control the secure elements and this API provides a way to discover,
  enable and disable the available SEs. It also exports that to
  userspace in order for SE focused middleware to actually do something
  with them (e.g. payments).

- NCI over SPI support. SPI is the most complex NCI specified transport
  layer and we now have support for it in the kernel. The next step will
  be to implement drivers for NCI chipsets using this transport like
  e.g. bcm2079x.

- NFC p2p hardware simulation driver. We now have an nfcsim driver that
  is mostly a loopback device between 2 NFC interfaces. It also
  implements the rest of the NFC core API like polling and target
  detection. This driver, with neard running on top of it, allows us to
  completely test the LLCP, SNEP and Handover implementation without
  physical hardware.

- A Firmware update netlink API. Most (All ?) HCI chipsets have a
  special firmware update mode where applications can push a new
  firmware that will be flashed. We now have a netlink API for providing
  that mode to e.g. nfctool."

On top of all that, there are a variety of updates to brcmfmac,
iwlegacy, rtlwifi, wil6210, and the TI wl12xx drivers.  As usual,
the bcma and ssb busses get a little love as well, as do a handful
of others here and there.

60877a32bc net: allow large number of tx queues
netif_alloc_netdev_queues() uses kcalloc() to allocate memory
for the "struct netdev_queue *_tx" array.

For large number of tx queues, kcalloc() might fail, so this
patch does a fallback to vzalloc().

As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT
to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.

c9364636dc htb: refactor struct htb_sched fields for performance
htb_sched structures are big, and source of false sharing on SMP.

Every time a packet is queued or dequeue, many cache lines must be
touched because structures are not lay out properly.

By carefully splitting htb_sched in two parts, and define sub structures
to increase data locality, we can improve performance dramatically on
SMP.

New htb_prio structure can also be used in htb_class to increase data
locality.

I got 26 % performance increase on a 24 threads machine, with 200
concurrent netperf in TCP_RR mode, using a HTB hierarchy of 4 classes.

bcefe17cff tcp: introduce a per-route knob for quick ack
In previous discussions, I tried to find some reasonable heuristics
for delayed ACK, however this seems not possible, according to Eric:

	"ACKS might also be delayed because of bidirectional
	traffic, and is more controlled by the application
	response time. TCP stack can not easily estimate it."

	"ACK can be incredibly useful to recover from losses in
	a short time.

	The vast majority of TCP sessions are small lived, and we
	send one ACK per received segment anyway at beginning or
	retransmits to let the sender smoothly increase its cwnd,
	so an auto-tuning facility wont help them that much."

and according to David:

	"ACKs are the only information we have to detect loss.

	And, for the same reasons that TCP VEGAS is fundamentally
	broken, we cannot measure the pipe or some other
	receiver-side-visible piece of information to determine
	when it's "safe" to stretch ACK.

	And even if it's "safe", we should not do it so that losses are
	accurately detected and we don't spuriously retransmit.

	The only way to know when the bandwidth increases is to
	"test" it, by sending more and more packets until drops happen.
	That's why all successful congestion control algorithms must
	operate on explicited tested pieces of information.

	Similarly, it's not really possible to universally know if
	it's safe to stretch ACK or not."

It still makes sense to enable or disable quick ack mode like
what TCP_QUICK_ACK does.

Similar to TCP_QUICK_ACK option, but for people who can't
modify the source code and still wants to control
TCP delayed ACK behavior. As David suggested, this should belong
to per-path scope, since different pathes may want different
behaviors.

The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right
next to the deletion of another option.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the
handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action().

Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically
keep everything in both conflict hunks.

The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved.  In 'net' we added a
dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that
Linus reported.  Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted
to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine
whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation.

However, the dump handlers to not use this logic.  Instead they have
to explicitly do the locking.  There were apparent bugs in the
conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the
RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should
be doing so.  So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes.

To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try
to allocate 'tb'.

3a5a423bb9 nl80211: fix attrbuf access race by allocating a separate one
Since my commit 3713b4e364 ("nl80211: allow splitting wiphy
information in dumps"), nl80211_dump_wiphy() uses the global
nl80211_fam.attrbuf for parsing the incoming data. This wouldn't
be a problem if it only did so on the first dump iteration which
is locked against other commands in generic netlink, but due to
space constraints in cb->args (the needed state doesn't fit) I
decided to always parse the original message. That's racy though
since nl80211_fam.attrbuf could be used by some other parsing in
generic netlink concurrently.

For now, fix this by allocating a separate parse buffer (it's a
bit too big for the stack, currently 1448 bytes on 64-bit). For
-next, I'll change the code to parse into the global buffer in
the first round only and then allocate a smaller buffer to keep
the data in cb->args.

33be081a81 ipv6: ndisc: fix ndisc_send_redirect writing to the wrong skb
Since some refactoring in 5f5a011, ndisc_send_redirect called
ndisc_fill_redirect_hdr_option on the wrong skb, leading to data corruption or
in the worst case a panic when the skb_put failed.

32de868cbc bridge: fix switched interval for MLD Query types
General Queries (the one with the Multicast Address field

of [Query Response Interval], while for Multicast-Address-Specific
Queries it is [Last Listener Query Interval] - not the other way
round. (see RFC2710, section 7.3+7.8)

788dfcacac vlan: restore ethtool ABI to control VLAN hardware acceleration
As part of the push to add 802.1ad server provider tagging support to the
kernel the VLAN features flags were renamed. Unfortunately the kernel name
for the VLAN hardware acceleration features that the kernel shows user space
was included in the rename, which broke ethtool (txvlan and rxvlan options
do not work). This patch restores the original names, i.e. the original ABI.
If we wanted to make clear to users that we are refering to CTAGs we can
always change ethtool's short_name and long_name for these features (for
example something along the lines of txvlan -> txvlan-ctag, tx-vlan-offload ->
tx-vlan-ctag-offload).

dda9192851 net: sctp: remove SCTP_STATIC macro
SCTP_STATIC is just another define for the static keyword. It's use
is inconsistent in the SCTP code anyway and it was introduced in the
initial implementation of SCTP in 2.5. We have a regression suite in
lksctp-tools, but this is for user space only, so noone makes use of
this macro anymore. The kernel test suite for 2.5 is incompatible with
the current SCTP code anyway.

So simply Remove it, to be more consistent with the rest of the kernel
code.

c5b248dd05 Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless into wireless
John W. Linville says:

====================
This will probably be the last batch of wireless fixes intended
for 3.10.  Many of these are one- or two-liners, and a couple of
others are mostly relocating existing code to avoid races or to
limit the code to effecting specific hardware, etc.

The mac80211 fixes have a couple of exceptions to the above.
Regarding those, Johannes says:

"Following davem's complaint about my patch, here's a new pull request
w/o the patch he was complaining about, but instead with the const
fix rolled into the fix.

I have a fix for radar detection, one for rate control and a workaround
for broken HT APs which is a regression fix because we didn't rely
on them to be correct before."

Johannes also sends some iwlwifi fixes:

"I picked up Nikolay's patch for the chain noise calibration bug
that seems to have been there forever, a fix from Emmanuel for
setting TX flags on BAR frames and a fix of my own to avoid printing
request_module() errors if the kernel isn't even modular. We also
have our own version of Stanislaw's fix for rate control."

Along with those...

Anderson Lizardo fixes a Bluetooth memory corruption bug when an MTU
value is set to too small of a value.

Arend van Spriel sends a revised brcmsmac bug that fixes a regression
caused by a bad return value in an earlier patch.  He also sends a
brcmfmac fix to avoid an oops when loading the driver at boot.

Daniel Drake fixes a race condition in btmrvl that causes hangs on
suspend for OLPC hardware.

Johan Hedberg adds a check to avoid sending a
HCI_Delete_Stored_Link_Key command to devices that don't support them,
avoiding some scary looking log spam.

Stanislaw Gruszka gives us a fix for iwlegacy to be able to use rates
higher than 1Mb/s on older wireless networks.  He also sends an rt2x00
fix to reinstate older tx power handling behavior for some devices
that didn't work well with the current code.
