John W. Linville says:
====================
Yet one more pull request for wireless updates intended for 3.11...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"Here we have a few memory leak fixes related to BSS struct handling
mostly from Ben, including a fix for a more theoretical problem
(associating while a BSS struct times out) from myself, a compilation
warning fix from Arend, mesh fixes from Thomas, tracking the beacon
bitrate (Alex), a bandwidth change event fix (Ilan) and some initial
work for 5/10 MHz channels from Simon."
Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:
"Emmanuel removed some unneeded/unsupported module parameters and adds a
Bluetooth 1x1 lookup-table for some upcoming products. From Alex I have
an older patch to add low-power receive support, this depended on a
mac80211 commit that only just came in with the merge from wireless-next
I did. Ilan made beacon timings better, and Eytan added some debug
statements for thermal throttling. I have a few cleanups, a fix for a
long-standing but rare warning, and, arguably the most important patch
here, the firmware API version bump for the 7260/3160 devices."
Also included is a Bluetooth pull -- Gustavo says:
"Here goes a set of patches to 3.11. The biggest work here is from Andre Guedes
on the move of the Discovery to use the new request framework. Other than that
Johan provided a bunch of fixes to the L2CAP code. The rest are just small
fixes and clean ups."
On top of all that, there are a variety of updates and fixes to
brcmfmac, rt2x00, wil6210, ath9k, ath10k, and a few others here and
there. This also includes a pull of the wireless tree, in order to
prevent some merge conflicts.

The common case is that TCP/IP checksums have already been
verified, e.g. by hardware (rx checksum offload), or conntrack.
Userspace can use this flag to determine when the checksum
has not been validated yet.
If the flag is set, this doesn't necessarily mean that the packet has
an invalid checksum, e.g. if NIC doesn't support rx checksum.
Userspace that sucessfully enabled NFQA_CFG_F_GSO queue feature flag can
infer that IP/TCP checksum has already been validated if either the
SKB_INFO attribute is not present or the NFQA_SKB_CSUM_NOTVERIFIED
flag is unset.

Until today all gamepad input drivers report their data differently. It is
nearly impossible to write applications for more than one device in a
generic way. Therefore, this patch introduces a uniform gamepad API which
will be used for all new drivers.
Instead of mapping buttons by their labels, we now map them by position.
This allows applications to work with any gamepad regardless of the labels
on the buttons. Furthermore, we standardize the ABS_* codes for analog
triggers and sticks.
For D-Pads the long overdue BTN_DPAD_* codes are introduced. They should
be fairly obvious how to use. To avoid confusion, the action buttons now
have BTN_EAST/SOUTH/WEST/NORTH aliases.

By default the SH scheduler rejects connections that are hashed onto a
realserver of weight 0. This patch adds a flag to make SH choose a
different realserver in this case, instead of rejecting the connection.
The patch also adds a flag to make SH include the source port (TCP, UDP,
SCTP) in the hash as well as the source address. This basically allows
for deterministic round-robin load balancing (i.e., where any director
in a cluster of directors with identical config will send the same
packet the same way).
The flags are service flags (IP_VS_SVC_F_SCHED*) so that these options
can be set per service. They are set using a new option to ipvsadm.

Add macros for single bit definitions of a specific type. These are
similar to the BIT() macro that already exists, but with a few
exceptions:
1. The namespace is such that they can be used in uapi definitions.
2. The type is set with the _AC() macro to allow it to be used in
assembly.
3. The type is explicitly specified to be UL or ULL.

We currently send all mappings to the iommu in PAGE_SIZE chunks,
which prevents the iommu from enabling support for larger page sizes.
We still need to pin pages, which means we step through them in
PAGE_SIZE chunks, but we can batch up contiguous physical memory
chunks to allow the iommu the opportunity to use larger pages. The
approach here is a bit different that the one currently used for
legacy KVM device assignment. Rather than looking at the vma page
size and using that as the maximum size to pass to the iommu, we
instead simply look at whether the next page is physically
contiguous. This means we might ask the iommu to map a 4MB region,
while legacy KVM might limit itself to a maximum of 2MB.
Splitting our mapping path also allows us to be smarter about locked
memory because we can more easily unwind if the user attempts to
exceed the limit. Therefore, rather than assuming that a mapping
will result in locked memory, we test each page as it is pinned to
determine whether it locks RAM vs an mmap'd MMIO region. This should
result in better locking granularity and less locked page fudge
factors in userspace.
The unmap path uses the same algorithm as legacy KVM. We don't want
to track the pfn for each mapping ourselves, but we need the pfn in
order to unpin pages. We therefore ask the iommu for the iova to
physical address translation, ask it to unpin a page, and see how many
pages were actually unpinned. iommus supporting large pages will
often return something bigger than a page here, which we know will be
physically contiguous and we can unpin a batch of pfns. iommus not
supporting large mappings won't see an improvement in batching here as
they only unmap a page at a time.
With this change, we also make a clarification to the API for mapping
and unmapping DMA. We can only guarantee unmaps at the same
granularity as used for the original mapping. In other words,
unmapping a subregion of a previous mapping is not guaranteed and may
result in a larger or smaller unmapping than requested. The size
field in the unmapping structure is updated to reflect this.
Previously this was unmodified on mapping, always returning the the
requested unmap size. This is now updated to return the actual unmap
size on success, allowing userspace to appropriately track mappings.

xt_socket module can be a nice replacement to conntrack module

But it lacks the ability to match the 3rd packet of TCP
handshake (ACK coming from the client).

The wildcard is the legacy socket match behavior, that ignores

VFIO implements platform independent stuff such as
a PCI driver, BAR access (via read/write on a file descriptor
or direct mapping when possible) and IRQ signaling.
The platform dependent part includes IOMMU initialization
and handling. This implements an IOMMU driver for VFIO
which does mapping/unmapping pages for the guest IO and
provides information about DMA window (required by a POWER
guest).

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.

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'.

Haswell has two additional LBR from flags for TSX: in_tx and
abort_tx, implemented as a new "v4" version of the LBR format.
Handle those in and adjust the sign extension code to still
correctly extend. The flags are exported similarly in the LBR
record to the existing misprediction flag

when user runs command btrfs dev del the raid requisite error if any
goes to the /var/log/messages, its not good idea to clutter messages
with these user (knowledge) errors, further user don't have to review
the system messages to know problem with the cli it should be dropped
to the user as part of the cli return.
to bring this feature created a set of the ERROR defined
BTRFS_ERROR_DEV* error codes and created their error string.
I expect this enum to be added with other error which we might
want to communicate to the user land
v3:
moved the code with in the file no logical change
v1->v2:
introduce error codes for the device mgmt usage
v1:
adds a parameter in the ioctl arg struct to carry the error string

btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion waits until the currently running qgroup
operation completes. It returns immediately when no rescan process is in
progress. This is useful to automate things around the rescan process (e.g.
testing).

When an NFC driver or host controller stack discovers a secure element,
it will call nfc_add_se(). In order for userspace applications to use
these secure elements, a netlink event will then be sent with the SE
index and its type. With that information userspace applications can
decide wether or not to enable SEs, through their indexes.

This API will allow NFC drivers to add and remove the secure elements
they know about or detect. Typically this should be called (asynchronously
or not) from the driver or the host interface stack detect_se hook.

Add netlink directives and ndo entry to allow for controling
VF link, which can be in one of three states:
Auto - VF link state reflects the PF link state (default)
Up - VF link state is up, traffic from VF to VF works even if
the actual PF link is down
Down - VF link state is down, no traffic from/to this VF, can be of
use while configuring the VF

As several NFC chipsets can have their firmwares upgraded and
reflashed, this patchset adds a new netlink command to trigger
that the driver loads or flashes a new firmware. This will allows
userspace triggered firmware upgrade through netlink.
The firmware name or hint is passed as a parameter, and the driver
will eventually fetch the firmware binary through the request_firmware
API.
The cmd can only be executed when the nfc dev is not in use. Actual
firmware loading/flashing is an asynchronous operation. Result of the
operation shall send a new event up to user space through the nfc dev
multicast socket. During operation, the nfc dev is not openable and
thus not usable.

The TUN_PERSIST flag is not reported at all -- both TUNGETIFF, and sysfs
"flags" attribute skip one. Knowing whether a device is persistent or not
is critical for checkpoint-restore, thus I propose to add the read-only
IFF_PERSIST one for this.
Setting this new IFF_PERSIST is hardly possible, as TUNSETIFF doesn't check
for unknown flags being zero and thus there can be trash.

Wire the init of a 32bit vcpu by allowing 32bit modes in pstate,
and providing sensible defaults out of reset state.
This feature is of course conditioned by the presence of 32bit
capability on the physical CPU, and is checked by the KVM_CAP_ARM_EL1_32BIT
capability.
