* Partial revert "Basic kernel memory functionality for the Memory Controller"Glauber Costa2011-12-232-107/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit e5671dfae59b165e2adfd4dfbdeab11ac8db5bda. After a follow up discussion with Michal, it was agreed it would be better to leave the kmem controller with just the tcp files, deferring the behavior of the other general memory.kmem.* files for a later time, when more caches are controlled. This is because generic kmem files are not used by tcp accounting and it is not clear how other slab caches would fit into the scheme. We are reverting the original commit so we can track the reference. Part of the patch is kept, because it was used by the later tcp code. Conflicts are shown in the bottom. init/Kconfig is removed from the revert entirely. Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> CC: Kirill A.

* sch_sfq: rehash queues in perturb timerEric Dumazet2011-12-211-6/+81
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A known Out Of Order (OOO) problem hurts SFQ when timer changes perturbation value, since all new packets delivered to SFQ enqueue might end on different slots than previous in-flight packets. With round robin delivery, we can thus deliver packets in a different order. Since SFQ is limited to small amount of in-flight packets, we can rehash packets so that this OOO problem is fixed. This rehashing is performed only if internal flow classifier is in use. We now store in skb->cb[] the "struct flow_keys" so that we dont call skb_flow_dissect() again while rehashing.

| * cfg80211: Restore orig channel values upon disconnectRajkumar Manoharan2011-12-161-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we restore regulatory settings the world regulatory domain is properly reset on cfg80211 (or user prefered regulatory domain) but we were never setting back channel values for drivers that use WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY. Set these values up again by using the orig_ channel parameters. This fixes restoring custom regulatory settings upon disconnect events.

| * cfg80211: allow following country IE power for custom regdom cardsLuis R. Rodriguez2011-12-162-5/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By definition WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY was intended to allow the wiphy to adjust itself to the country IE power information if the card had no regulatory data but we had no way to tell cfg80211 that if the card also had its own custom regulatory domain (these are typically custom world regulatory domains) that we want to follow the country IE's noted values for power for each channel. We add support for this and document it. This is not a critical fix but a performance optimization for cards with custom regulatory domains that associate to an AP with sends out country IEs with a higher EIRP than the one on the custom regulatory domain. In practice the only driver affected right now are the Atheros drivers as they are the only drivers using both WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY and WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY -- used on cards that have an Atheros world regulatory domain. Cards that have been programmed to follow a country specifically will not follow the country IE power. So although not a stable fix distributions should consider cherry picking this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This initial DFS module provides basic functionality to deal with radar pulses reported by the Atheros DFS HW pulse detector. The reported data is evaluated and basic plausibility checks are performed to filter false pulses. Passing radar pulses are forwarded to pattern detectors which are not yet implemented.
