[ Upstream commit 66e56cd46b ]
Commit e40526cb20 introduced a cached dev pointer, that gets
hooked into register_prot_hook(), __unregister_prot_hook() to
update the device used for the send path.
We need to fix this up, as otherwise this will not work with
sockets created with protocol = 0, plus with sll_protocol = 0
passed via sockaddr_ll when doing the bind.
So instead, assign the pointer directly. The compiler can inline
these helper functions automagically.
While at it, also assume the cached dev fast-path as likely(),
and document this variant of socket creation as it seems it is
not widely used (seems not even the author of TX_RING was aware
of that in his reference example [1]). Tested with reproducer
from e40526cb20.

commit 966fbe193f upstream.
Some device require DMADIR to be enabled, but are not detected as such
by atapi_id_dmadir. One such example is "Asus Serillel 2"
SATA-host-to-PATA-device bridge: the bridge itself requires DMADIR,
even if the bridged device does not.
As atapi_dmadir module parameter can cause problems with some devices
(as per Tejun Heo's memory), enabling it globally may not be possible
depending on the hardware.
This patch adds atapi_dmadir in the form of a "force" horkage value,
allowing global, per-bus and per-device control.

[ Upstream commit 98e09386c0 ]
After commit c9eeec26e3 ("tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit"), several
users reported throughput regressions, notably on mvneta and wifi
adapters.
802.11 AMPDU requires a fair amount of queueing to be effective.
This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit()
so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes.
It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored
in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway.
Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq),
can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from
128KB to 8KB.
This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver
authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set
to a minimum of 4KB.
Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible,
but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and
too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.

commit 312b4e2269 upstream.
Some setuid binaries will allow reading of files which have read
permission by the real user id. This is problematic with files which
use %pK because the file access permission is checked at open() time,
but the kptr_restrict setting is checked at read() time. If a setuid
binary opens a %pK file as an unprivileged user, and then elevates
permissions before reading the file, then kernel pointer values may be
leaked.
This happens for example with the setuid pppd application on Ubuntu 12.04:
$ head -1 /proc/kallsyms
00000000 T startup_32
$ pppd file /proc/kallsyms
pppd: In file /proc/kallsyms: unrecognized option 'c1000000'
This will only leak the pointer value from the first line, but other
setuid binaries may leak more information.
Fix this by adding a check that in addition to the current process having
CAP_SYSLOG, that effective user and group ids are equal to the real ids.
If a setuid binary reads the contents of a file which uses %pK then the
pointer values will be printed as NULL if the real user is unprivileged.
Update the sysctl documentation to reflect the changes, and also correct
the documentation to state the kptr_restrict=0 is the default.
This is a only temporary solution to the issue. The correct solution is
to do the permission check at open() time on files, and to replace %pK
with a function which checks the open() time permission. %pK uses in
printk should be removed since no sane permission check can be done, and
instead protected by using dmesg_restrict.

02cf4ebd82, and parts of
7eec4174ff ]
After hearing many people over past years complaining against TSO being
bursty or even buggy, we are proud to present automatic sizing of TSO
packets.
One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic
relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having
big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create
micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the
buffering amount.
This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates
the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so
that we try to send one packet every ms.
This field could be set by other transports.
Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets
makes sense to reach line rate.
For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking.
This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments.
A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the
minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2).
A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using
sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing.
This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current
rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up.
sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt

1) Found via trinity:
If you connect up an ipv6 socket to an ipv4 mapped address then an
ipv6 one, sendmsg() can croak because ip6_sk_dst_check() assumes the
route cached in the socket is an ipv6 one. In this case there is an

(cherry picked from commit d3eaace84e)
When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with
the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin.
The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that
returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed
transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in
suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter
and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be
valid anymore.
To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use
the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated
state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be
written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted
becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the
signal will be rolled back anyway.
For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the
normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

If we are emulating an instruction inside an active user transaction that
touches memory, the kernel can't emulate it as it operates in transactional
suspend context. We need to abort these transactions and send them back to
userspace for the hardware to rollback.
We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the
kernel will operate in the same suspend context.
This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction
emulations (only string instructions for now). If the user process is in an
active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to
userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the
failure. This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the
persistent error to the user.

A simple frame-buffer describes a raw memory region that may be rendered
to, with the assumption that the display hardware has already been set
up to scan out from that buffer.
This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the
display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display
hardware.
Examples use-cases include:
* The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra
devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot
yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control
should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been
stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these
panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use
common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their
own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF.
* Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and
the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the
Raspberry Pi.
* Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics
driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot
console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process,
thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.

deleted the XD disk driver, but there are still a few
references to it in the documentation directory. Delete
the remnants and thus also free up the major block device

If tmem is built-in or a module, the user has the option on
the command line to influence it by doing: tmem.<some option>
instead of having a variety of "nocleancache", and
"nofrontswap". The others: "noselfballooning" and "selfballooning";
and "noselfshrink" are in a different driver xen-selfballoon.c

xen/tmem: Remove the usage of 'noselfshrink' and use 'tmem.selfshrink' bool instead.

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
- More work on DT support for various platforms
- Various fixes that were to late to make it straight into 3.9
- Improved platform support, in particular the Netlogic XLR and
BCM63xx, and the SEAD3 and Malta eval boards.
- Support for several Ralink SOC families.
- Complete support for the microMIPS ASE which basically reencodes the
existing MIPS32/MIPS64 ISA to use non-constant size instructions.
- Some fallout from LTO work which remove old cruft and will generally
make the MIPS kernel easier to maintain and resistant to compiler
optimization, even in absence of LTO.
- KVM support. While MIPS has announced hardware virtualization
extensions this KVM extension uses trap and emulate mode for
virtualization of MIPS32. More KVM work to add support for VZ
hardware virtualizaiton extensions and MIPS64 will probably already
be merged for 3.11.
Most of this has been sitting in -next for a long time. All defconfigs
have been build or run time tested except three for which fixes are being
sent by other maintainers.

Pull ARM SoC fixes and straggler patches from Olof Johansson:
"A collection of fixes for fall out from 3.10 merge window, some build
fixes and warning cleanups and a small handful of patches that were
small and contained and made sense to still include in 3.10 (some of
these have also been in -next since the merge window opened).
Largest continous series is for OMAP, but there's a handful for other
platforms.
For i.MX, one of the patches are framebuffer fixups due to fallout
during the merge window, and the other removes some stale and broken
code."

Pull btrfs update from Chris Mason:
"These are mostly fixes. The biggest exceptions are Josef's skinny
extents and Jan Schmidt's code to rebuild our quota indexes if they
get out of sync (or you enable quotas on an existing filesystem).
The skinny extents are off by default because they are a new variation
on the extent allocation tree format. btrfstune -x enables them, and
the new format makes the extent allocation tree about 30% smaller.
I rebased this a few days ago to rework Dave Sterba's crc checks on
the super block, but almost all of these go back to rc6, since I
though 3.9 was due any minute.
The biggest missing fix is the tracepoint bug that was hit late in
3.9. I ran into problems with that in overnight testing and I'm still
tracking it down. I'll definitely have that fixed for rc2."
