27a9da6538 sched: Remove rq argument to the tracepoints
struct rq isn't visible outside of sched.o so its near useless to
expose the pointer, also there are no users of it, so remove it.

18e8c134f4 net: Increase NET_SKB_PAD to 64 bytes
eth_type_trans() & get_rps_cpus() currently need two 64bytes cache
lines in packet to compute rxhash.

Increasing NET_SKB_PAD from 32 to 64 reduces the need to one cache
line only, and makes RPS faster.

03b1930efd V4L/DVB: saa7146: fix regression of the av7110/budget-av driver
An earlier regression fix for the mxb driver (V4L/DVB: saa7146_vv: fix
regression where v4l2_device was registered too late) caused a new
regression in the av7110 driver.

Reverted the old fix and fixed the problem in the mxb driver instead.
Tested on mxb and budget-av cards.

The real problem is that the saa7146 framework has separate probe()
and attach() driver callbacks which should be rolled into one. This
is now done for the mxb driver, but others should do the same. Lack
of hardware makes this hard to do, though. I hope to get hold of some
hexium cards and then I can try to improve the framework to prevent
this from happening again.

969c79215a sched: replace migration_thread with cpu_stop
Currently migration_thread is serving three purposes - migration
pusher, context to execute active_load_balance() and forced context
switcher for expedited RCU synchronize_sched.  All three roles are
hardcoded into migration_thread() and determining which job is
scheduled is slightly messy.

This patch kills migration_thread and replaces all three uses with
cpu_stop.  The three different roles of migration_thread() are
splitted into three separate cpu_stop callbacks -
migration_cpu_stop(), active_load_balance_cpu_stop() and
synchronize_sched_expedited_cpu_stop() - and each use case now simply
asks cpu_stop to execute the callback as necessary.

synchronize_sched_expedited() was implemented with private
preallocated resources and custom multi-cpu queueing and waiting
logic, both of which are provided by cpu_stop.
synchronize_sched_expedited_count is made atomic and all other shared
resources along with the mutex are dropped.

synchronize_sched_expedited() also implemented a check to detect cases
where not all the callback got executed on their assigned cpus and
fall back to synchronize_sched().  If called with cpu hotplug blocked,
cpu_stop already guarantees that and the condition cannot happen;
otherwise, stop_machine() would break.  However, this patch preserves
the paranoid check using a cpumask to record on which cpus the stopper
ran so that it can serve as a bisection point if something actually
goes wrong theree.

Because the internal execution state is no longer visible,
rcu_expedited_torture_stats() is removed.

This patch also renames cpu_stop threads to from "stopper/%d" to
"migration/%d".  The names of these threads ultimately don't matter
and there's no reason to make unnecessary userland visible changes.

With this patch applied, stop_machine() and sched now share the same
resources.  stop_machine() is faster without wasting any resources and
sched migration users are much cleaner.

3fc1f1e27a stop_machine: reimplement using cpu_stop
Reimplement stop_machine using cpu_stop.  As cpu stoppers are
guaranteed to be available for all online cpus,
stop_machine_create/destroy() are no longer necessary and removed.

With resource management and synchronization handled by cpu_stop, the
new implementation is much simpler.  Asking the cpu_stop to execute
the stop_cpu() state machine on all online cpus with cpu hotplug
disabled is enough.

stop_machine itself doesn't need to manage any global resources
anymore, so all per-instance information is rolled into struct
stop_machine_data and the mutex and all static data variables are
removed.

The previous implementation created and destroyed RT workqueues as
necessary which made stop_machine() calls highly expensive on very
large machines.  According to Dimitri Sivanich, preventing the dynamic
creation/destruction makes booting faster more than twice on very
large machines.  cpu_stop resources are preallocated for all online
cpus and should have the same effect.

1142d81029 cpu_stop: implement stop_cpu[s]()
Implement a simplistic per-cpu maximum priority cpu monopolization
mechanism.  A non-sleeping callback can be scheduled to run on one or
multiple cpus with maximum priority monopolozing those cpus.  This is
primarily to replace and unify RT workqueue usage in stop_machine and
scheduler migration_thread which currently is serving multiple
purposes.

Four functions are provided - stop_one_cpu(), stop_one_cpu_nowait(),
stop_cpus() and try_stop_cpus().

This is to allow clean sharing of resources among stop_cpu and all the
migration thread users.  One stopper thread per cpu is created which
is currently named "stopper/CPU".  This will eventually replace the
migration thread and take on its name.

* This facility was originally named cpuhog and lived in separate
  files but Peter Zijlstra nacked the name and thus got renamed to
  cpu_stop and moved into stop_machine.c.

* Better reporting of preemption leak as per Peter's suggestion.

ee84b8243b rcu: create rcu_my_thread_group_empty() wrapper
Some RCU-lockdep splat repairs need to know whether they are running
in a single-threaded process.  Unfortunately, the thread_group_empty()
primitive is defined in sched.h, and can induce #include hell.  This
commit therefore introduces a rcu_my_thread_group_empty() wrapper that
is defined in rcupdate.c, thus avoiding the need to include sched.h
everywhere.

ICMP protocol unreachable handling completely disregarded
the fact that the user may have locked the socket.  It proceeded
to destroy the association, even though the user may have
held the lock and had a ref on the association.  This resulted
in the following:

This was because the sctp_wait_for_connect() would aqcure the socket
lock and then proceed to release the last reference count on the
association, thus cause the fully destruction path to finish freeing
the socket.

The simplest solution is to start a very short timer in case the socket
is owned by user.  When the timer expires, we can do some verification
and be able to do the release properly.

0e34e93177 netpoll: add generic support for bridge and bonding devices
This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding
devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding,
and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now.

To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust
some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things:

1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device:
   IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll;
   IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device
   at run-time;

2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops:
   ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is
     removed.

3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter;
   export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later;

4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto.

5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll.

6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable
   netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

2e26ca7150 tracing: Fix tracepoint.h DECLARE_TRACE() to allow more than one header
When more than one header is included under CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
the DECLARE_TRACE() macro is not defined back to its original meaning
and the second include will fail to initialize the TRACE_EVENT()
and DECLARE_TRACE() correctly.

To fix this the tracepoint.h file moves the define of DECLARE_TRACE()
out of the #ifdef _LINUX_TRACEPOINT_H protection (just like the
define of the TRACE_EVENT()). This way the define_trace.h will undef
the DECLARE_TRACE() at the end and allow new headers to start
from scratch.

This patch also requires fixing the include/events/napi.h

It currently uses DECLARE_TRACE() and should be converted to a TRACE_EVENT()
format. But I'll leave that change to the authors of that file.
But since the napi.h file depends on using the CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
and does not define its own DEFINE_TRACE() it must use the define_trace.h
method instead.

ec7d2f2cf3 net: __alloc_skb() speedup
With following patch I can reach maximum rate of my pktgen+udpsink
simulator :
- 'old' machine : dual quad core E5450  @3.00GHz
- 64 UDP rx flows (only differ by destination port)
- RPS enabled, NIC interrupts serviced on cpu0
- rps dispatched on 7 other cores. (~130.000 IPI per second)
- SLAB allocator (faster than SLUB in this workload)
- tg3 NIC
- 1.080.000 pps without a single drop at NIC level.

Idea is to add two prefetchw() calls in __alloc_skb(), one to prefetch
first sk_buff cache line, the second to prefetch the shinfo part.

Also using one memset() to initialize all skb_shared_info fields instead
of one by one to reduce number of instructions, using long word moves.

All skb_shared_info fields before 'dataref' are cleared in 
__alloc_skb().

2c2df8418a x86, acpi/irq: Introduce apci_isa_irq_to_gsi
There are a number of cases where the current code makes the assumption
that isa irqs identity map to the first 16 acpi global system intereupts.
In most instances that assumption is correct as that is the required
behaviour in dual i8259 mode and the default behavior in ioapic mode.

However there are some systems out there that take advantage of acpis
interrupt remapping  for the isa irqs to have a completely different
mapping of isa_irq to gsi.

Introduce acpi_isa_irq_to_gsi to perform this mapping explicitly in the
code that needs it.  Initially this will be just the current assumed
identity mapping to ensure it's introduction does not cause regressions.

4dbf6bc239 tracing: Convert nop macros to static inlines
The ftrace.h file contains several functions as macros when the
functions are disabled due to config options. This patch converts
most of them to static inlines.

There are two exceptions:

  register_ftrace_function() and unregister_ftrace_function()

This is because their parameter "ops" must not be evaluated since
code using the function is allowed to #ifdef out the creation of
the parameter.

This also fixes an error caused by recent changes:

e7a297b0d7 genirq: Add CPU mask affinity hint
This patch adds a cpumask affinity hint to the irq_desc structure,
along with a registration function and a read-only proc entry for each
interrupt.

This affinity_hint handle for each interrupt can be used by underlying
drivers that need a better mechanism to control interrupt affinity.
The underlying driver can register a cpumask for the interrupt, which
will allow the driver to provide the CPU mask for the interrupt to
anything that requests it.  The intent is to extend the userspace
daemon, irqbalance, to help hint to it a preferred CPU mask to balance
the interrupt into.

[ tglx: Fixed compile warnings, added WARN_ON, made SMP only ]

d9d52b5178 tun: add ioctl to modify vnet header size
virtio added mergeable buffers mode where 2 bytes of extra info is put
after vnet header but before actual data (tun does not need this data).
In hindsight, it would have been better to add the new info *before* the
packet: as it is, users need a lot of tricky code to skip the extra 2
bytes in the middle of the iovec, and in fact applications seem to get
it wrong, and only work with specific iovec layout.  The fact we might
need to split iovec also means we might in theory overflow iovec max
size.

This patch adds a simpler way for applications to handle this,
and future proofs the interface against further extensions,
by making the size of the virtio net header configurable
from userspace. As a result, tun driver will simply
skip the extra 2 bytes on both input and output.

dee42870a4 net: fix softnet_stat
Per cpu variable softnet_data.total was shared between IRQ and SoftIRQ context
without any protection. And enqueue_to_backlog should update the netdev_rx_stat
of the target CPU.

This patch renames softnet_data.total to softnet_data.processed: the number of
packets processed in uppper levels(IP stacks).

softnet_stat data is moved into softnet_data.

7407e5bba2 [SCSI] Unexport scsi/scsi.h from headers_install
The scsi/scsi.h header is normally provided by the libc (and was not
exported by the kernel since 2.6.24) and has been until it was
re-exported with 2.6.31.  The kernel version is not userspace clean and
does not appear to provide anything useable in userland over the
(e)glibc version.

47d29646a2 net: Inline skb_pull() in eth_type_trans().
In commit 6be8ac2f ("[NET]: uninline skb_pull, de-bloats a lot")
we uninlined skb_pull.

But in some critical paths it makes sense to inline this thing
and it helps performance significantly.

Create an skb_pull_inline() so that we can do this in a way that
serves also as annotation.

Based upon a patch by Eric Dumazet.

4381548237 net: sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversion
sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk->sk_sleep pointer, so we
need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming
packet.

RCU conversion is pretty much needed :

1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields
that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a
wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer).

[Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing]

2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in
sock_alloc_inode().

3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq"

4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct
socket_wq"

5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk->sk_wq instead of
sk->sk_sleep

6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside
a rcu_read_lock() section.

7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to :
  - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
  - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks.
  - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)

8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well.

9) Exceptions :
  macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq"
instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing.

Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible
sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).

0e3aef8d09 sctp: Tag messages that can be Nagle delayed at creation.
When we create the sctp_datamsg and fragment the user data,
we know exactly if we are sending full segments or not and
how they might be bundled.  During this time, we can mark
messages a Nagle capable or not.  This makes the check at
transmit time much simpler.

b2cf9b6bd9 sctp: update transport initializations
Right now, sctp transports are not fully initialized and when
adding any new fields, they have to be explicitely initialized.
This is prone to mistakes.  So we switch to calling kzalloc()
which makes things much simpler.
