This patch fixes a bug in CUBIC that causes cwnd to increase slightly
too slowly when multiple ACKs arrive in the same jiffy.
If cwnd is supposed to increase at a rate of more than once per jiffy,
then CUBIC was sometimes too slow. Because the bic_target is
calculated for a future point in time, calculated with time in
jiffies, the cwnd can increase over the course of the jiffy while the
bic_target calculated as the proper CUBIC cwnd at time
t=tcp_time_stamp+rtt does not increase, because tcp_time_stamp only
increases on jiffy tick boundaries.
So since the cnt is set to:
ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd);
as cwnd increases but bic_target does not increase due to jiffy
granularity, the cnt becomes too large, causing cwnd to increase
too slowly.
For example:
- suppose at the beginning of a jiffy, cwnd=40, bic_target=44
- so CUBIC sets:
ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 40 / (44 - 40) = 40/4 = 10
- suppose we get 10 acks, each for 1 segment, so tcp_cong_avoid_ai()
increases cwnd to 41
- so CUBIC sets:
ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 41 / (44 - 41) = 41 / 3 = 13
So now CUBIC will wait for 13 packets to be ACKed before increasing
cwnd to 42, insted of 10 as it should.
The fix is to avoid adjusting the slope (determined by ca->cnt)
multiple times within a jiffy, and instead skip to compute the Reno
cwnd, the "TCP friendliness" code path.

Change CUBIC to properly handle stretch ACKs in additive increase mode
by passing in the count of ACKed packets to tcp_cong_avoid_ai().
In addition, because we are now precisely accounting for stretch ACKs,
including delayed ACKs, we can now remove the delayed ACK tracking and
estimation code that tracked recent delayed ACK behavior in
ca->delayed_ack.

Change Reno to properly handle stretch ACKs in additive increase mode
by passing in the count of ACKed packets to tcp_cong_avoid_ai().
In addition, if snd_cwnd crosses snd_ssthresh during slow start
processing, and we then exit slow start mode, we need to carry over
any remaining "credit" for packets ACKed and apply that to additive
increase by passing this remaining "acked" count to
tcp_cong_avoid_ai().

tcp_cong_avoid_ai() was too timid (snd_cwnd increased too slowly) on
"stretch ACKs" -- cases where the receiver ACKed more than 1 packet in
a single ACK. For example, suppose w is 10 and we get a stretch ACK
for 20 packets, so acked is 20. We ought to increase snd_cwnd by 2
(since acked/w = 20/10 = 2), but instead we were only increasing cwnd
by 1. This patch fixes that behavior.

LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that
cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch
ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion
control algorithms that were designed and tuned years ago with
receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead
politely ACKing every other packet.
This patch series fixes Reno and CUBIC to handle stretch ACKs.
This patch prepares for the upcoming stretch ACK bug fix patches. It
adds an "acked" parameter to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to allow for future
fixes to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to correctly handle stretch ACKs, and
changes all congestion control algorithms to pass in 1 for the ACKed
count. It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet
ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be
processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode.
In future patches we will fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch
ACKs, and fix Reno and CUBIC handling of stretch ACKs in slow start
and additive increase mode.

As of commit 9a1091ef0017c40a ("irqchip: gic: Support hierarchy irq
domain."), the APE6EVM legacy board support is known to be broken.
The IRQ numbers of the GIC are now virtual, and no longer match the
hardcoded hardware IRQ numbers in the legacy platform board code.
To fix this issue specific to non-muliplatform r8a73a4 and APE6EVM:
1) Instantiate the GIC from platform board code and also
2) Skip over the DT arch timer as well as
3) Force delay setup based on DT CPU frequency
With these 3 fixes in place interrupts on APE6EVM are now unbroken.
Partially based on legacy GIC fix by Geert Uytterhoeven, thanks to
him for the initial work.

disabled
Since commit f2c3c67f00 (merge commit that adds commit "ARM: mvebu:
completely disable hardware I/O coherency"), we disable I/O coherency
on Armada EBU platforms.
However, we continue to initialize the coherency fabric, because this
coherency fabric is needed on Armada XP for inter-CPU
coherency. Unfortunately, due to this, we also continued to execute
the coherency fabric initialization code for Armada 375/38x, which
switched the PL310 into I/O coherent mode. This has the effect of
disabling the outer cache sync operation: this is needed when I/O
coherency is enabled to work around a PCIe/L2 deadlock. But obviously,
when I/O coherency is disabled, having the outer cache sync operation
is crucial.
Therefore, this commit fixes the armada_375_380_coherency_init() so
that the PL310 is switched to I/O coherent mode only if I/O coherency
is enabled.
Without this fix, all devices using DMA are broken on Armada 375/38x.

This effectively reverts the last hunk of 392a9dad7e77 ("rbd: detect
when clone image is flattened").
The problem with parent_overlap != 0 condition is that it's possible
and completely valid to have an image with parent_overlap == 0 whose
parent state needs to be cleaned up on unmap. The next commit, which
drops the "clone image now standalone" logic, opens up another window
of opportunity to hit this, but even without it
# cat parent-ref.sh
#!/bin/bash
rbd create --image-format 2 --size 1 foo
rbd snap create foo@snap
rbd snap protect foo@snap
rbd clone foo@snap bar
rbd resize --allow-shrink --size 0 bar
rbd resize --size 1 bar
DEV=$(rbd map bar)
rbd unmap $DEV
leaves rbd_device/rbd_spec/etc and rbd_client along with ceph_client
hanging around.
My thinking behind calling rbd_dev_parent_put() unconditionally is that
there shouldn't be any requests in flight at that point in time as we
are deep into unmap sequence. Hence, even if rbd_dev_unparent() caused
by flatten is delayed by in-flight requests, it will have finished by
the time we reach rbd_dev_unprobe() caused by unmap, thus turning
unconditional rbd_dev_parent_put() into a no-op.

The comment for rbd_dev_parent_get() said
* We must get the reference before checking for the overlap to
* coordinate properly with zeroing the parent overlap in
* rbd_dev_v2_parent_info() when an image gets flattened. We
* drop it again if there is no overlap.
but the "drop it again if there is no overlap" part was missing from
the implementation. This lead to absurd parent_ref values for images
with parent_overlap == 0, as parent_ref was incremented for each
img_request and virtually never decremented.
Fix this by leveraging the fact that refresh path calls
rbd_dev_v2_parent_info() under header_rwsem and use it for read in
rbd_dev_parent_get(), instead of messing around with atomics. Get rid
of barriers in rbd_dev_v2_parent_info() while at it - I don't see what
they'd pair with now and I suspect we are in a pretty miserable
situation as far as proper locking goes regardless.

The fix from 9fc81d87420d ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.
Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.
Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

At least some gcc versions - validly afaict - warn about potentially
using max_group uninitialized: There's no way the compiler can prove
that the body of the conditional where it and max_faults get set/
updated gets executed; in fact, without knowing all the details of
other scheduler code, I can't prove this either.
Generally the necessary change would appear to be to clear max_group
prior to entering the inner loop, and break out of the outer loop when
it ends up being all clear after the inner one. This, however, seems
inefficient, and afaict the same effect can be achieved by exiting the
outer loop when max_faults is still zero after the inner loop.
[ mingo: changed the solution to zero initialization: uninitialized_var()
needs to die, as it's an actively dangerous construct: if in the future
a known-proven-good piece of code is changed to have a true, buggy
uninitialized variable, the compiler warning is then supressed...
The better long term solution is to clean up the code flow, so that
even simple minded compilers (and humans!) are able to read it without
getting a headache. ]

a18a0f6850d4 ("x86, microcode: Don't initialize microcode code on

loading is not permitted.
However, they don't prevent the driver from being loaded since the
init code returns 0. If at some point later the driver gets unloaded
this will result in an oops while trying to deregister the (never
registered) device.
To avoid this, make init code return an error on paravirt or when
microcode loading is disabled. The driver will then never be loaded.

Currently ->get_dqblk() and ->set_dqblk() use struct fs_disk_quota which
tracks space limits and usage in 512-byte blocks. However VFS quotas
track usage in bytes (as some filesystems require that) and we need to
somehow pass this information. Upto now it wasn't a problem because we
didn't do any unit conversion (thus VFS quota routines happily stuck
number of bytes into d_bcount field of struct fd_disk_quota). Only if
you tried to use Q_XGETQUOTA or Q_XSETQLIM for VFS quotas (or Q_GETQUOTA
/ Q_SETQUOTA for XFS quotas), you got bogus results. Hardly anyone
tried this but reportedly some Samba users hit the problem in practice.
So when we want interfaces compatible we need to fix this.
We bite the bullet and define another quota structure used for passing
information from/to ->get_dqblk()/->set_dqblk. It's somewhat sad we have
to have more conversion routines in fs/quota/quota.c and another copying
of quota structure slows down getting of quota information by about 2%
but it seems cleaner than overloading e.g. units of d_bcount to bytes.

The DesignWare PCIe MSI hardware does not support MSI-X IRQs. Setting
those up failed as a side effect of a bug which was fixed by 91f8ae823f2b
("PCI: designware: Setup and clear exactly one MSI at a time").
Now that this bug is fixed, MSI-X IRQs need to be rejected explicitly;
otherwise devices trying to use them may end up with incorrectly working
interrupts.

Currently we try to clear EDRRR and EDTRR and immediately continue to
free buffers. This is unsafe because:
- In general, register writes are not serialised with DMA, so we still
have to wait for DMA to complete somehow
- The R8A7790 (R-Car H2) manual states that the TX running flag cannot
be cleared by writing to EDTRR
- The same manual states that clearing the RX running flag only stops
RX DMA at the next packet boundary
I applied this patch to the driver to detect DMA writes to freed
buffers:
> --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.c
> +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.c
> @@ -1098,7 +1098,14 @@ static void sh_eth_ring_free(struct net_device *ndev)

> + }

> kfree(mdp->rx_skbuff);
> mdp->rx_skbuff = NULL;
then ran the loop:
while ethtool -G eth0 rx 128 ; ethtool -G eth0 rx 64; do echo -n .; done
and 'ping -f' toward the sh_eth port from another machine. The
warning fired several times a minute.
To fix these issues:
- Deactivate all TX descriptors rather than writing to EDTRR
- As there seems to be no way of telling when RX DMA is stopped,
perform a soft reset to ensure that both DMA enginess are stopped
- To reduce the possibility of the reset truncating a transmitted
frame, disable egress and wait a reasonable time to reach a
packet boundary before resetting
- Update statistics before resetting
(The 'reasonable time' does not allow for CS/CD in half-duplex
mode, but half-duplex no longer seems reasonable!)

An exception is seen in ICMP ping receive path where the skb
destructor sock_rfree() tries to access a freed socket. This happens
because ping_rcv() releases socket reference with sock_put() and this
internally frees up the socket. Later icmp_rcv() will try to free the
skb and as part of this, skb destructor is called and which leads
to a kernel panic as the socket is freed already in ping_rcv().

While working on rhashtable walking I noticed that the UDP diag
dumping code is buggy. In particular, the socket skipping within
a chain never happens, even though we record the number of sockets
that should be skipped.
As this code was supposedly copied from TCP, this patch does what
TCP does and resets num before we walk a chain.

While being in an ERROR_WARNING state, and receiving further
bus error events with error counters still in the ERROR_WARNING
range of 97-127 inclusive, the state handling code erroneously
reverts back to ERROR_ACTIVE.
Per the CAN standard, only revert to ERROR_ACTIVE when the
error counters are less than 96.
Moreover, in certain Kvaser models, the BUS_ERROR flag is
always set along with undefined bits in the M16C status
register. Thus use bitwise operators instead of full equality
for checking that register against bus errors.

Upon receiving a hardware event with the BUS_RESET flag set,
the driver kills all of its anchored URBs and resets all of
its transmit URB contexts.
Unfortunately it does so under the context of URB completion
handler `kvaser_usb_read_bulk_callback()', which is often
called in an atomic context.
While the device is flooded with many received error packets,
usb_kill_urb() typically sleeps/reschedules till the transfer
request of each killed URB in question completes, leading to
the sleep in atomic bug. [3]
In v2 submission of the original driver patch [1], it was
stated that the URBs kill and tx contexts reset was needed
since we don't receive any tx acknowledgments later and thus
such resources will be locked down forever. Fortunately this
is no longer needed since an earlier bugfix in this patch
series is now applied: all tx URB contexts are reset upon CAN
channel close. [2]
Moreover, a BUS_RESET is now treated _exactly_ like a BUS_OFF
event, which is the recommended handling method advised by
the device manufacturer.
