* ipc/msg: increase MSGMNI, remove scalingManfred Spraul2014-12-131-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SysV can be abused to allocate locked kernel memory. For most systems, a small limit doesn't make sense, see the discussion with regards to SHMMAX. Therefore: increase MSGMNI to the maximum supported. And: If we ignore the risk of locking too much memory, then an automatic scaling of MSGMNI doesn't make sense. Therefore the logic can be removed. The code preserves auto_msgmni to avoid breaking any user space applications that expect that the value exists. Notes: 1) If an administrator must limit the memory allocations, then he can set MSGMNI as necessary. Or he can disable sysv entirely (as e.g. done by Android). 2) MSGMAX and MSGMNB are intentionally not increased, as these values are used to control latency vs. throughput: If MSGMNB is large, then msgsnd() just returns and more messages can be queued before a task switch to a task that calls msgrcv() is forced.

* mm/page_owner: keep track of page ownersJoonsoo Kim2014-12-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that. Below is people who has "Signed-off-by" in the patches in Andrew's tree.

* mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurableJoonsoo Kim2014-12-131-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and makes related functions to be disabled in this case. Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

* hugetlb: fix hugepages= entry in kernel-parameters.txtLuiz Capitulino2014-12-131-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hugepages= entry in kernel-parameters.txt states that 1GB pages can only be allocated at boot time and not freed afterwards. This is not true since commit 944d9fec8d7a ("hugetlb: add support for gigantic page allocation at runtime"), at least for x86_64. Instead of adding arch-specifc observations to the hugepages= entry, this commit just drops the out of date information. Further information about arch-specific support and available features can be obtained in the hugetlb documentation.

| * pstore-ram: Allow optional mapping with pgprot_noncachedTony Lindgren2014-12-111-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk just before a write hanging the system. On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by default.

The driver uses the platform device infrastructure to probe the rtc device and register it to rtc class framework. The 'wakeup' is supported depending upon the property 'has-tpo' present in the OF node. It provides a way to load the generic rtc driver in in the absence of an OPAL driver. The patch also moves the existing OPAL rtc get/set time interfaces to the new driver and exposes the necessary OPAL calls using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.

Shutemov - Support for another ath3k device - Fix for tracking link key based security level - Device tree bindings for btmrvl + a state update fix - Fix for wrong ACL flags on LE links" And... "In addition to the previous one this contains two more cleanups to mac802154 as well as support for some new HCI features from the Bluetooth 4.2 specification. From the original request: 'Here's what should be the last bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19. It's rather large but the majority of it is the Low Energy Secure Connections feature that's part of the Bluetooth 4.2 specification. The specification went public only this week so we couldn't publish the corresponding code before that. The code itself can nevertheless be considered fairly mature as it's been in development for over 6 months and gone through several interoperability test events. Besides LE SC the pull request contains an important fix for command complete events for mgmt sockets which also fixes some leaks of hci_conn objects when powering off or unplugging Bluetooth adapters. A smaller feature that's part of the pull request is service discovery support. This is like normal device discovery except that devices not matching specific UUIDs or strong enough RSSI are filtered out. Other changes that the pull request contains are firmware dump support to the btmrvl driver, firmware download support for Broadcom BCM20702A0 variants, as well as some coding style cleanups in 6lowpan & ieee802154/mac802154 code.'" For the NFC bits, Samuel says: "With this one we get: - NFC digital improvements for DEP support: Chaining, NACK and ATN support added. - NCI improvements: Support for p2p target, SE IO operand addition, SE operands extensions to support proprietary implementations, and a few fixes. - NFC HCI improvements: OPEN_PIPE and NOTIFY_ALL_CLEARED support, and SE IO operand addition. - A bunch of minor improvements and fixes for STMicro st21nfcb and st21nfca" For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "Major works are CSA and TDLS. On top of that I have a new firmware API for scan and a few rate control improvements. Johannes find a few tricks to improve our CPU utilization and adds support for a new spin of 7265 called 7265D. Along with this a few random things that don't stand out." And... "I deprecate here -8.ucode since -9 has been published long ago. Along with that I have a new activity, we have now better a infrastructure for firmware debugging. This will allow to have configurable probes insides the firmware. Luca continues his work on NetDetect, this feature is now complete. All the rest is minor fixes here and there." For the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "Only ath10k changes this time and no major changes. Most visible are: o new debugfs interface for runtime firmware debugging (Yanbo) o fix shared WEP (Sujith) o don't rebuild whenever kernel version changes (Johannes) o lots of refactoring to make it easier to add new hw support (Michal) There's also smaller fixes and improvements with no point of listing here." In addition, there are a few last minute updates to ath5k, ath9k, brcmfmac, brcmsmac, mwifiex, rt2x00, rtlwifi, and wil6210. Also included is a pull of the wireless tree to pick-up the fixes originally included in "pull request: wireless 2014-12-03"...

One use is to correlate timestamps with egress device, by asking for cmsg IP_PKTINFO. on AF_INET sockets, call the relevant function (ip_cmsg_recv). To avoid changing legacy expectations, only do so if the caller sets a new timestamping flag SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. on AF_INET6 sockets, IPV6_PKTINFO and all other recv cmsg are already returned for all origins. only change is to set ifindex, which is not initialized for all error origins. In both cases, only generate the pktinfo message if an ifindex is known. This is not the case for ACK timestamps. The difference between the protocol families is probably a historical accident as a result of the different conditions for generating cmsg in the relevant ip(v6)_recv_error function: ipv4: if (serr->ee.ee_origin == SO_EE_ORIGIN_ICMP) { ipv6: if (serr->ee.ee_origin != SO_EE_ORIGIN_LOCAL) { At one time, this was the same test bar for the ICMP/ICMP6 distinction. This is no longer true. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> ---- Changes v1 -> v2 large rewrite - integrate with existing pktinfo cmsg generation code - on ipv4: only send with new flag, to maintain legacy behavior - on ipv6: send at most a single pktinfo cmsg - on ipv6: initialize fields if not yet initialized The recv cmsg interfaces are also relevant to the discussion of whether looping packet headers is problematic. For v6, cmsgs that identify many headers are already returned. This patch expands that to v4. If it sounds reasonable, I will follow with patches 1. request timestamps without payload with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/366967/) 2. sysctl to conditionally drop all timestamps that have payload or cmsg from users without CAP_NET_RAW.

It inherits L2 of the master device hence the packets on wire will have the same L2 for all the packets originating from all virtual devices off of the same master device. This driver was developed keeping the namespace use-case in mind. Hence most of the examples given here take that as the base setup where main-device belongs to the default-ns and virtual devices are assigned to the additional namespaces. The device operates in two different modes and the difference in these two modes in primarily in the TX side. (a) L2 mode : In this mode, the device behaves as a L2 device. TX processing upto L2 happens on the stack of the virtual device associated with (namespace). Packets are switched after that into the main device (default-ns) and queued for xmit. RX processing is simple and all multicast, broadcast (if applicable), and unicast belonging to the address(es) are delivered to the virtual devices. (b) L3 mode : In this mode, the device behaves like a L3 device. TX processing upto L3 happens on the stack of the virtual device associated with (namespace). Packets are switched to the main-device (default-ns) for the L2 processing. Hence the routing table of the default-ns will be used in this mode. RX processins is somewhat similar to the L2 mode except that in this mode only Unicast packets are delivered to the virtual device while main-dev will handle all other packets. The devices can be added using the "ip" command from the iproute2 package - ip link add link <master> <virtual> type ipvlan mode [ l2 | l3 ] Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Cc: Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com> Cc: Tim Hockin <thockin@google.com> Cc: Brandon Philips <brandon.philips@coreos.com> Cc: Pavel Emelianov <xemul@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Most of it is again fixes and cleanups to ieee802154 related code from Alexander Aring. We've also got better handling of hardware error events along with a proper API for HCI drivers to notify the HCI core of such situations. There's also a minor fix for mgmt events as well as a sparse warning fix. The code for sending HCI commands synchronously also gets a fix where we might loose the completion event in the case of very fast HW (particularly easily reproducible with an emulated HCI device)." And... "Here's another bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19. We've got: - Various fixes, cleanups and improvements to ieee802154/mac802154 - Support for a Broadcom BCM20702A1 variant - Lots of lockdep fixes - Fixed handling of LE CoC errors that should trigger SMP" For the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "One ath6kl patch and rest for ath10k, but nothing really major which stands out.
