7880b72e94 bnx2: don't request firmware when there's no userspace.
The firmware is cached during the first successful call to open() and
released once the network device is unregistered. The driver uses the
cached firmware between open() and unregister_netdev().

It's similar to 953a12cc28 but the
firmware is mandatory.

77f9859837 bridge: fix ordering of NEWLINK and NEWNEIGH events
When port is added to a bridge, the old code would send the new neighbor
netlink message before the subsequent new link message. This bug makes
it difficult to use the monitoring API in an application.

This code changes the ordering to add the forwarding entry
after the port is setup. One of the error checks (for invalid address)
is moved earlier in the process to avoid having to do unwind.

Revise high and low threshold marks wrt flow control to account
for the X540 devices and latency introduced by the loopback
switch.

Without this it was in theory possible to drop frames on a
supposedly lossless link with X540 or SR-IOV enabled.

Previously we used a magic number in a define to calculate the
threshold values. This made it difficult to sort out exactly
which latencies were or were not being accounted for. Here
I was overly explicit and tried to used #define names that would
be recognizable after reading the IEEE 802.1Qbb specification.

storing the interrupt throttle rate as a value in microseconds instead of
interrupts per second.  The advantage to this approach is that the value

flip the value back and forth since the hardware already used microseconds
when setting the rate.

d5bc77a223 e1000: don't enable dma receives until after dma address has been setup
Doing an 'ifconfig ethN down' followed by an 'ifconfig ethN up' on a qemu-kvm
guest system configured with two e1000 NICs can result in an 'unable to handle
kernel paging request at 0000000100000000' or 'bad page map in process ...' or
something similar.

These result from a 4096-byte page being corrupted with the following two-word
pattern (16-bytes) repeated throughout the entire page:

  0x0000000000000000
  0x0000000100000000

There can be other bits set as well. What is a constant is that the 2nd word
has the 32nd bit set. So one could see:

        :
  0x0000000000000000
  0x0000000100000000
  0x0000000000000000
  0x0000000172adc067    <<< bad pte
  0x800000006ec60067
  0x0000000700000040
  0x0000000000000000
  0x0000000100000000
        :

Which came from from a process' page table I dumped out when the marked line
was seen as bad by print_bad_pte().

The repeating pattern represents the e1000's two-word receive descriptor:

struct e1000_rx_desc {
        __le64 buffer_addr;   /* Address of the descriptor's data buffer */
        __le16 length;        /* Length of data DMAed into data buffer */
        __le16 csum;          /* Packet checksum */
        u8 status;            /* Descriptor status */
        u8 errors;            /* Descriptor Errors */
        __le16 special;
};

And the 32nd bit of the 2nd word maps to the 'u8 status' member, and
corresponds to E1000_RXD_STAT_DD which indicates the descriptor is done.

The corruption appears to result from the following...

 . An 'ifconfig ethN down' gets us into e1000_close(), which through a number
   of subfunctions results in:
     1. E1000_RCTL_EN being cleared in RCTL register.  [e1000_down()]
     2. dma_free_coherent() being called.  [e1000_free_rx_resources()]

 . An 'ifconfig ethN up' gets us into e1000_open(), which through a number of
   subfunctions results in:
     1. dma_alloc_coherent() being called.  [e1000_setup_rx_resources()]
     2. E1000_RCTL_EN being set in RCTL register.  [e1000_setup_rctl()]
     3. E1000_RCTL_EN being cleared in RCTL register.  [e1000_configure_rx()]
     4. RDLEN, RDBAH and RDBAL registers being set to reflect the dma page
        allocated in step 1.  [e1000_configure_rx()]
     5. E1000_RCTL_EN being set in RCTL register.  [e1000_configure_rx()]

During the 'ifconfig ethN up' there is a window opened, starting in step 2
where the receives are enabled up until they are disabled in step 3, in which
the address of the receive descriptor dma page known by the NIC is still the
previous one which was freed during the 'ifconfig ethN down'. If this memory
has been reallocated for some other use and the NIC feels so inclined, it will
write to that former dma page with predictably unpleasant results.

I realize that in the guest, we're dealing with an e1000 NIC that is software
emulated by qemu-kvm. The problem doesn't appear to occur on bare-metal. Andy
suspects that this is because in the emulator link-up is essentially instant
and traffic can start flowing immediately. Whereas on bare-metal, link-up
usually seems to take at least a few milliseconds. And this might be enough
to prevent traffic from flowing into the device inside the window where
E1000_RCTL_EN is set.

So perhaps a modification needs to be made to the qemu-kvm e1000 NIC emulator
to delay the link-up. But in defense of the emulator, it seems like a bad idea
to enable dma operations before the address of the memory to be involved has
been made known.

The following patch no longer enables receives in e1000_setup_rctl() but leaves
them however they were. It only enables receives in e1000_configure_rx(), and
only after the dma address has been made known to the hardware.

There are two places where e1000_setup_rctl() gets called. The one in
e1000_configure() is followed immediately by a call to e1000_configure_rx(), so
there's really no change functionally (except for the removal of the problem
window. The other is in __e1000_shutdown() and is not followed by a call to
e1000_configure_rx(), so there is a change functionally. But consider...

 . An 'ifconfig ethN down' (just as described above).

 . A 'suspend' of the system, which (I'm assuming) will find its way into
   e1000_suspend() which calls __e1000_shutdown() resulting in:
     1. E1000_RCTL_EN being set in RCTL register.  [e1000_setup_rctl()]

And again we've re-opened the problem window for some unknown amount of time.

This patch adds support for SJW user settings to not set the synchronization
jump width (SJW) to 1 in any case when using the in-kernel bittiming
calculation.

The ip-tool from iproute2 already supports to pass the user defined SJW
value. The given SJW value is sanitized with the controller specific sjw_max
and the calculated tseg2 value. As the SJW can have values up to 4 providing
this value will lead to the maximum possible SJW automatically. A higher SJW
allows higher controller oscillator tolerances.

f786ecba41 connector: add comm change event report to proc connector
Add an event to monitor comm value changes of tasks.  Such an event
becomes vital, if someone desires to control threads of a process in
different manner.

A natural characteristic of threads is its comm value, and helpfully
application developers have an opportunity to change it in runtime.
Reporting about such events via proc connector allows to fine-grain
monitoring and control potentials, for instance a process control daemon
listening to proc connector and following comm value policies can place
specific threads to assigned cgroup partitions.

It might be possible to achieve a pale partial one-shot likeness without
this update, if an application changes comm value of a thread generator
task beforehand, then a new thread is cloned, and after that proc
connector listener gets the fork event and reads new thread's comm value
from procfs stat file, but this change visibly simplifies and extends the
matter.

16e5726269 af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default
Since commit 7361c36c52 (af_unix: Allow credentials to work across
user and pid namespaces) af_unix performance dropped a lot.

This is because we now take a reference on pid and cred in each write(),
and release them in read(), usually done from another process,
eventually from another cpu. This triggers false sharing.

This patch includes SCM_CREDENTIALS information in a af_unix message/skb
only if requested by the sender, [man 7 unix for details how to include
ancillary data using sendmsg() system call]

Note: This might break buggy applications that expected SCM_CREDENTIAL
from an unaware write() system call, and receiver not using SO_PASSCRED
socket option.

If SOCK_PASSCRED is set on source or destination socket, we still
include credentials for mere write() syscalls.

Performance boost in hackbench : more than 50% gain on a 16 thread
machine (2 quad-core cpus, 2 threads per core)

2fb40577b0 wl3501_cs: min_t() cast truncates high bits
wrqu->encoding.length comes from the network administrator.  It's
size u16.  We want to limit "tocopy" to the smallest value of either
"len_keys", "wrqu->encoding.length" or 100.  But because .length
gets cast from u16 to u8 we might use a random, smaller value than
the was desired.  It's probably not very serious, but we may as well
fix it.

Btw, this is from code auditing and not from testing.  I don't know
if this affects anyone in real life.

aad14ceb45 mac80211: Send the management frame at requested rate
Whenever the scan request or tx_mgmt is requesting not to
use CCK rate for managemet frames through
NL80211_ATTR_TX_NO_CCK_RATE attribute, then mac80211 should
select appropriate least non-CCK rate. This could help to
send P2P probes and P2P action frames at non 11b rates
without diabling 11b rates globally.

e9f935e3e8 nl80211/cfg80211: Add support to disable CCK rate for management frame
Add a new nl80211 attribute to specify whether to send the management
frames in CCK rate or not. As of now the wpa_supplicant is disabling
CCK rate at P2P init itself. So this patch helps to send P2P probe
request/probe response/action frames being sent at non CCK rate in 2GHz
without disabling 11b rates.

This attribute is used with NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN and
NL80211_CMD_FRAME commands to disable CCK rate for management frame
transmission.
