Extend nl80211 to report an exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) of the
signal value. Since the signal value usually fluctuates between different
packets, an average can be more useful than the value of the last packet.
This uses the recently added generic EWMA library function.

This adds generic functions for calculating Exponentially Weighted Moving
Averages (EWMA). This implementation makes use of a structure which keeps the
EWMA parameters and a scaled up internal representation to reduce rounding
errors.
The original idea for this implementation came from the rt2x00 driver
(rt2x00link.c). I would like to use it in several places in the mac80211 and
ath5k code and I hope it can be useful in many other places in the kernel code.

In many places we've just hardcoded the
AC numbers -- which is a relic from the
original mac80211 (d80211). Add constants
for them so we know what we're talking
about.

Chipsets with hardware based connection monitoring need to autonomically
send directed probe-request frames to the AP (in the event of beacon loss,
for example.)
For the hardware to be able to do this, it requires a template for the frame
to transmit to the AP, filled in with the BSSID and SSID of the AP, but also
the supported rate IE's.
This patch adds a function to mac80211, which allows the hardware driver to
fetch this template after association, so it can be configured to the hardware.

Allow antenna configuration by calling driver's function for it.
We disallow antenna configuration if the wiphy is already running, mainly to
make life easier for 802.11n drivers which need to recalculate HT capabilites.

Allow setting of TX and RX antennas configuration via nl80211.
The antenna configuration is defined as a bitmap of allowed antennas to use.
This API can be used to mask out antennas which are not attached or should not
be used for other reasons like regulatory concerns or special setups.
Separate bitmaps are used for RX and TX to allow configuring different antennas
for receiving and transmitting. Each bitmap is 32 bit long, each bit
representing one antenna, starting with antenna 1 at the first bit. If an
antenna bit is set, this means the driver is allowed to use this antenna for RX
or TX respectively; if the bit is not set the hardware is not allowed to use
this antenna.
Using bitmaps has the benefit of allowing for a flexible configuration
interface which can support many different configurations and which can be used
for 802.11n as well as non-802.11n devices. Instead of relying on some hardware
specific assumptions, drivers can use this information to know which antennas
are actually attached to the system and derive their capabilities based on
that.
802.11n devices should enable or disable chains, based on which antennas are
present (If all antennas belonging to a particular chain are disabled, the
entire chain should be disabled). HT capabilities (like STBC, TX Beamforming,
Antenna selection) should be calculated based on the available chains after
applying the antenna masks. Should a 802.11n device have diversity antennas
attached to one of their chains, diversity can be enabled or disabled based on
the antenna information.
Non-802.11n drivers can use the antenna masks to select RX and TX antennas and
to enable or disable antenna diversity.
While covering chainmasks for 802.11n and the standard "legacy" modes "fixed
antenna 1", "fixed antenna 2" and "diversity" this API also allows more rare,
but useful configurations as follows:
1) Send on antenna 1, receive on antenna 2 (or vice versa). This can be used to
have a low gain antenna for TX in order to keep within the regulatory
constraints and a high gain antenna for RX in order to receive weaker signals
("speak softly, but listen harder"). This can be useful for building long-shot
outdoor links. Another usage of this setup is having a low-noise pre-amplifier
on antenna 1 and a power amplifier on the other antenna. This way transmit
noise is mostly kept out of the low noise receive channel.
(This would be bitmaps: tx 1 rx 2).
2) Another similar setup is: Use RX diversity on both antennas, but always send
on antenna 1. Again that would allow us to benefit from a higher gain RX
antenna, while staying within the legal limits.
(This would be: tx 0 rx 3).
3) And finally there can be special experimental setups in research and
development even with pre 802.11n hardware where more than 2 antennas are
available. It's good to keep the API simple, yet flexible.

After a module loads you will have loaded the world roaming regulatory
domain or a custom regulatory domain. Further regulatory hints are
welcomed and should be respected unless the regulatory hint is coming
from a country IE as the IEEE spec allows for a country IE to be a subset
of what is allowed by the local regulatory agencies.
So disable all channels that do not fit a regulatory domain sent
from a unless the hint is from a country IE and the country IE had
no information about the band we are currently processing.
This fixes a few regulatory issues, for example for drivers that depend
on CRDA and had no 5 GHz freqencies allowed were not properly disabling
5 GHz at all, furthermore it also allows users to restrict devices
further as was intended.
If you recieve a country IE upon association we will also disable the
channels that are not allowed if the country IE had at least one
channel on the respective band we are procesing.
This was the original intention behind this design but it was
completely overlooked...

We should be enabling country IE hints for WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY
even if we haven't yet recieved regulatory domain hint for the driver
if it needed one. Without this Country IEs are not passed on to drivers
that have set WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY, today this is just all
Atheros chipset drivers: ath5k, ath9k, ar9170, carl9170.
This was part of the original design, however it was completely
overlooked...

Currently spi_register_board_info() has to be called before its related
spi_master be registered, otherwise these board info will be just ignored.
This patch will remove this order limit, it adds a global spi master list
like the existing global board info listr. Whenever a board info or a
spi_master is registered, the spi master list or board info list
will be scanned, and a new spi device will be created if there is a
master-board info match.

it's immediate need is questionable. For maintenance ease it might

This patch adds the Scatter-Gather (sg) API to libosd.
Scatter-gather enables a write/read of multiple none-contiguous
areas of an object, in a single call. The extents may overlap
and/or be in any order.
The Scatter-Gather list is sent to the target in what is called
a "cdb continuation segment". This is yet another possible segment
in the osd-out-buffer. It is unlike all other segments in that it
sits before the actual "data" segment (which until now was always
first), and that it is signed by itself and not part of the data
buffer. This is because the cdb-continuation-segment is considered
a spill-over of the CDB data, and is therefor signed under
OSD_SEC_CAPKEY and higher.
TODO: A new osd_finalize_request_ex version should be supplied so
the @caps received on the network also contains a size parameter
and can be spilled over into the "cdb continuation segment".
Thanks to John Chandy <john.chandy@uconn.edu> for the original
code, and investigations. And the implementation of SG support
in the osd-target.

When number of NPIV ports created are greater than the xids

system with nr_cpu_ids of 32, with each pool containing 128
xids -- and then generating a link event - for eg.,
shutdown/no shutdown -- on the switch port causes the hang
with the following stack trace.

Reorder struct fsnotfiy_mark to remove 8 bytes of alignment padding on 64
bit builds. Shrinks fsnotfiy_mark to 128 bytes allowing more objects per
slab in its kmem_cache and reduces the number of cachelines needed for
each structure.

fanotify has a very limited number of events it sends on directories. The
usefulness of these events is yet to be seen and still we send them. This
is particularly painful for mount marks where one might receive many of
these useless events. As such this patch will drop events on IS_DIR()
inodes unless they were explictly requested with FAN_ON_DIR.
This means that a mark on a directory without FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD or
FAN_ON_DIR is meaningless and will result in no events ever (although it
will still be allowed since detecting it is hard)

fanotify currently has no limit on the number of listeners a given user can
have open. This patch limits the total number of listeners per user to
128. This is the same as the inotify default limit.

Some fanotify groups, especially those like AV scanners, will need to place
lots of marks, particularly ignore marks. Since ignore marks do not pin
inodes in cache and are cleared if the inode is removed from core (usually
under memory pressure) we expose an interface for listeners, with
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, to override the maximum number of marks and be allowed to
set and 'unlimited' number of marks. Programs which make use of this
feature will be able to OOM a machine.

There is currently no limit on the number of marks a given fanotify group
can have. Since fanotify is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN this was not seen as
a serious DoS threat. This patch implements a default of 8192, the same as
inotify to work towards removing the CAP_SYS_ADMIN gating and eliminating
the default DoS'able status.

fanotify has a defualt max queue depth. This patch allows processes which
explicitly request it to have an 'unlimited' queue depth. These processes
need to be very careful to make sure they cannot fall far enough behind
that they OOM the box. Thus this flag is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

Currently fanotify has no maximum queue depth. Since fanotify is
CAP_SYS_ADMIN only this does not pose a normal user DoS issue, but it
certianly is possible that an fanotify listener which can't keep up could
OOM the box. This patch implements a default 16k depth. This is the same
default depth used by inotify, but given fanotify's better queue merging in
many situations this queue will contain many additional useful events by
comparison.

fanotify is supposed to be able to flush all marks. This is mostly useful
for the AV community to flush all cached decisions on a security policy
change. This functionality has existed in the kernel but wasn't correctly
exposed to userspace.

fsnotify perm events do not call fsnotify parent. That means you cannot
register a perm event on a directory and enforce permissions on all inodes in
that directory. This patch fixes that situation.

When fsnotify groups return errors they are ignored. For permissions
events these should be passed back up the stack, but for most events these
should continue to be ignored.

Currently the userspace struct exposed by fanotify uses
__attribute__((packed)) to make sure that alignment works on multiarch
platforms. Since this causes a severe performance penalty on some
platforms we are going to switch to using explicit alignment notation on
the 64bit values so we don't have to use 'packed'

The fanotify listeners needs to be able to specify what types of operations
they are going to perform so they can be ordered appropriately between other
listeners doing other types of operations. They need this to be able to make
sure that things like hierarchichal storage managers will get access to inodes
before processes which need the data. This patch defines 3 possible uses
which groups must indicate in the fanotify_init() flags.
FAN_CLASS_PRE_CONTENT
FAN_CLASS_CONTENT
FAN_CLASS_NOTIF
Groups will receive notification in that order. The order between 2 groups in
the same class is undeterministic.
FAN_CLASS_PRE_CONTENT is intended to be used by listeners which need access to
the inode before they are certain that the inode contains it's final data. A
hierarchical storage manager should choose to use this class.
FAN_CLASS_CONTENT is intended to be used by listeners which need access to the
inode after it contains its intended contents. This would be the appropriate
level for an AV solution or document control system.
FAN_CLASS_NOTIF is intended for normal async notification about access, much the
same as inotify and dnotify. Syncronous permissions events are not permitted
at this class.

fanotify needs to be able to specify that some groups get events before
others. They use this idea to make sure that a hierarchical storage
manager gets access to files before programs which actually use them. This
is purely infrastructure. Everything will have a priority of 0, but the
infrastructure will exist for it to be non-zero.
