aa39514516 net: sk_sleep() helper
Define a new function to return the waitqueue of a "struct sock".

static inline wait_queue_head_t *sk_sleep(struct sock *sk)
{
	return sk->sk_sleep;
}

Change all read occurrences of sk_sleep by a call to this function.

Needed for a future RCU conversion. sk_sleep wont be a field directly
available.

1289723ef2 mac80211: sample survey implementation for mac80211 & hwsim
This adds the survey function to both mac80211 itself and to mac80211_hwsim.
For the latter driver, we simply invent some noise level.A real driver which
cannot determine the real channel noise MUST NOT report any noise, especially
not a magically conjured one :-)

03ceedea97 ath9k: Group Key fix for VAPs
When I set up multiple VAPs with ath9k, I encountered an issue that
the traffic may be lost after a while.

The detailed phenomenon is
1. After a while the clients connected to one of these VAPs will get
into a state that no broadcast/multicast packets can be transfered
successfully while the unicast packets can be transfered normally.
2. Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well,
because the ARP entry is expired and it can't be freshed due to the
broadcast trouble.

It's caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this
issue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven't work out a fix yet.

I referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k.
The method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)'s address, and
associated that mac and the group key. It requires the hardware
supports multicast frame key search. It seems true for AR9160.

Not sure whether it's the correct way to fix this issue. But it seems
to work in my test. The patch is attached, feel free to revise it.

0f849d2cc6 ACPICA: Minimize the differences between linux GPE code and ACPICA code base
We have ported Rafael's major GPE changes
(ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs) into ACPICA code base.
But the port and Rafael's original patch have some differences, so we made
below patch to make linux GPE code consistent with ACPICA code base.

Most changes are about comments and coding styles.
Other noticeable changes are based on:

Rafael: Reduce code duplication related to GPE lookup
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/86237/

Rafael: Always use the same lock for GPE locking
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/90471/

A new field gpe_count in struct acpi_gpe_block_info to record the number
of individual GPEs in block.

Rename acpi_ev_save_method_info to acpi_ev_match_gpe_method.

6c79bf0f24 netfilter: bridge-netfilter: fix refragmenting IP traffic encapsulated in PPPoE traffic
The MTU for IP traffic encapsulated inside PPPoE traffic is smaller
than the MTU of the Ethernet device (1500). Connection tracking
gathers all IP packets and sometimes will refragment them in
ip_fragment(). We then need to subtract the length of the
encapsulating header from the mtu used in ip_fragment(). The check in
br_nf_dev_queue_xmit() which determines if ip_fragment() has to be
called is also updated for the PPPoE-encapsulated packets.
nf_bridge_copy_header() is also updated to make sure the PPPoE data
length field has the correct value.

82c5da6bf8 drm/ttm: ttm_fault callback to allow driver to handle bo placement V6
On fault the driver is given the opportunity to perform any operation
it sees fit in order to place the buffer into a CPU visible area of
memory. This patch doesn't break TTM users, nouveau, vmwgfx and radeon
should keep working properly. Future patch will take advantage of this
infrastructure and remove the old path from TTM once driver are
converted.

V2 return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE if callback return -EBUSY or -ERESTARTSYS
V3 balance io_mem_reserve and io_mem_free call, fault_reserve_notify
   is responsible to perform any necessary task for mapping to succeed
V4 minor cleanup, atomic_t -> bool as member is protected by reserve
   mecanism from concurent access
V5 the callback is now responsible for iomapping the bo and providing
   a virtual address this simplify TTM and will allow to get rid of
   TTM_MEMTYPE_FLAG_NEEDS_IOREMAP
V6 use the bus addr data to decide to ioremap or this isn't needed
   but we don't necesarily need to ioremap in the callback but still
   allow driver to use static mapping

net_rps_action() is a bit expensive on NR_CPUS=64..4096 kernels, even if

Tom Herbert used two bitmasks to hold information needed to send IPI,

Move all RPS logic into net_rps_action() to cleanup net_rx_action() code
(remove two ifdefs)

Move rps_remote_softirq_cpus into softnet_data to share its first cache
line, filling an existing hole.

In a future patch, we could call net_rps_action() from process_backlog()
to make sure we send IPI before handling this cpu backlog.

edd5bdaf12 firewire: core: clean up config ROM related defined constants
Clemens Ladisch pointed out that
  - BIB_IMC is not named like the field is called in the standard,
  - readers of the code may get worried about the magic 0x0c0083c0,
  - a CSR_NODE_CAPABILITIES key is there in the header but not put to
    good use.

So let's rename BIB_IMC, add a defined constant for Node_Capabilities
and a comment which reassures people that somebody thought about it and
they don't have to (or if they still do, tell them where they have to
look for confirmation), and prune our incomplete and arbitrary set of
defined constants of CSR key IDs.  And there is a nother magic number,
that of Bus_Information_Block.Bus_Name, to be defined and commented.

f3c5c1bfd4 netfilter: xtables: make ip_tables reentrant
Currently, the table traverser stores return addresses in the ruleset
itself (struct ip6t_entry->comefrom). This has a well-known drawback:
the jumpstack is overwritten on reentry, making it necessary for
targets to return absolute verdicts. Also, the ruleset (which might
be heavy memory-wise) needs to be replicated for each CPU that can
possibly invoke ip6t_do_table.

This patch decouples the jumpstack from struct ip6t_entry and instead
puts it into xt_table_info. Not being restricted by 'comefrom'
anymore, we can set up a stack as needed. By default, there is room
allocated for two entries into the traverser.

arp_tables is not touched though, because there is just one/two
modules and further patches seek to collapse the table traverser
anyhow.

whether to connect a hiddev device (HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV_FORCE).

Passing HID_QUIRK_NO_IGNORE for your device means that it will
not be ignored by the HID layer, even if present in a blacklist.

HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV_FORCE will force the creation of a hiddev for that
device, making it accessible from user-space.

bc293d62b2 rcu: Make RCU lockdep check the lockdep_recursion variable
The lockdep facility temporarily disables lockdep checking by
incrementing the current->lockdep_recursion variable.  Such
disabling happens in NMIs and in other situations where lockdep
might expect to recurse on itself.

This patch therefore checks current->lockdep_recursion, disabling RCU
lockdep splats when this variable is non-zero.  In addition, this patch
removes the "likely()", as suggested by Lai Jiangshan.

b2c812e22d ASoC: Add indirection for CODEC private data
One of the features of the multi CODEC work is that it embeds a struct
device in the CODEC to provide diagnostics via a sysfs class rather than
via the device tree, at which point it's much better to use the struct
device private data rather than having two places to store it. Provide
an accessor function to allow this change to be made more easily, and
update all the CODEC drivers are updated.

To ensure use of the accessor the private data structure member is
renamed, meaning that if code developed with older an older core that
still uses private_data is merged it will fail to build.

fec5e652e5 rfs: Receive Flow Steering
This patch implements receive flow steering (RFS).  RFS steers
received packets for layer 3 and 4 processing to the CPU where
the application for the corresponding flow is running.  RFS is an
extension of Receive Packet Steering (RPS).

The basic idea of RFS is that when an application calls recvmsg
(or sendmsg) the application's running CPU is stored in a hash
table that is indexed by the connection's rxhash which is stored in
the socket structure.  The rxhash is passed in skb's received on
the connection from netif_receive_skb.  For each received packet,
the associated rxhash is used to look up the CPU in the hash table,
if a valid CPU is set then the packet is steered to that CPU using
the RPS mechanisms.

The convolution of the simple approach is that it would potentially
allow OOO packets.  If threads are thrashing around CPUs or multiple
threads are trying to read from the same sockets, a quickly changing
CPU value in the hash table could cause rampant OOO packets--
we consider this a non-starter.

To avoid OOO packets, this solution implements two types of hash
tables: rps_sock_flow_table and rps_dev_flow_table.

rps_sock_table is a global hash table.  Each entry is just a CPU
number and it is populated in recvmsg and sendmsg as described above.
This table contains the "desired" CPUs for flows.

rps_dev_flow_table is specific to each device queue.  Each entry
contains a CPU and a tail queue counter.  The CPU is the "current"
CPU for a matching flow.  The tail queue counter holds the value
of a tail queue counter for the associated CPU's backlog queue at
the time of last enqueue for a flow matching the entry.

Each backlog queue has a queue head counter which is incremented
on dequeue, and so a queue tail counter is computed as queue head
count + queue length.  When a packet is enqueued on a backlog queue,
the current value of the queue tail counter is saved in the hash
entry of the rps_dev_flow_table.

And now the trick: when selecting the CPU for RPS (get_rps_cpu)
the rps_sock_flow table and the rps_dev_flow table for the RX queue
are consulted.  When the desired CPU for the flow (found in the
rps_sock_flow table) does not match the current CPU (found in the
rps_dev_flow table), the current CPU is changed to the desired CPU
if one of the following is true:

- The current CPU is unset (equal to RPS_NO_CPU)
- Current CPU is offline
- The current CPU's queue head counter >= queue tail counter in the
rps_dev_flow table.  This checks if the queue tail has advanced
beyond the last packet that was enqueued using this table entry.
This guarantees that all packets queued using this entry have been
dequeued, thus preserving in order delivery.

Making each queue have its own rps_dev_flow table has two advantages:
1) the tail queue counters will be written on each receive, so
keeping the table local to interrupting CPU s good for locality.  2)
this allows lockless access to the table-- the CPU number and queue
tail counter need to be accessed together under mutual exclusion
from netif_receive_skb, we assume that this is only called from
device napi_poll which is non-reentrant.

This patch implements RFS for TCP and connected UDP sockets.
It should be usable for other flow oriented protocols.

There are two configuration parameters for RFS.  The
"rps_flow_entries" kernel init parameter sets the number of
entries in the rps_sock_flow_table, the per rxqueue sysfs entry
"rps_flow_cnt" contains the number of entries in the rps_dev_flow
table for the rxqueue.  Both are rounded to power of two.

The obvious benefit of RFS (over just RPS) is that it achieves
CPU locality between the receive processing for a flow and the
applications processing; this can result in increased performance
(higher pps, lower latency).

The benefits of RFS are dependent on cache hierarchy, application
load, and other factors.  On simple benchmarks, we don't necessarily
see improvement and sometimes see degradation.  However, for more
complex benchmarks and for applications where cache pressure is
much higher this technique seems to perform very well.

Below are some benchmark results which show the potential benfit of
this patch.  The netperf test has 500 instances of netperf TCP_RR
test with 1 byte req. and resp.  The RPC test is an request/response
test similar in structure to netperf RR test ith 100 threads on
each host, but does more work in userspace that netperf.

a02a295680 wl1251: add support for dedicated IRQ line
wl1251 has WLAN_IRQ pin for generating interrupts to host processor,
which is mandatory in SPI mode and optional in SDIO mode (which can
use SDIO interrupts instead). However TI recommends using deditated
IRQ line for SDIO too.

Add support for using dedicated interrupt line with SDIO, but also leave
ability to switch to SDIO interrupts in case it's needed.
