Until now, when VLAN acceleration was in use, the bytes of the VLAN header were not included in port or flow byte counters. They were however included when VLAN acceleration was not used. This commit corrects the inconsistency, by always including the VLAN header in byte counters.

Thomas Jarosch reported IPsec TCP stalls when a PMTU event occurs. In fact the problem was completely unrelated to IPsec. The bug is also reproducible if you just disable TSO/GSO. The problem is that when the MSS goes down, existing queued packet on the TX queue that have not been transmitted yet all look like TSO packets and get treated as such. This then triggers a bug where tcp_mss_split_point tells us to generate a zero-sized packet on the TX queue. Once that happens we're screwed because the zero-sized packet can never be removed by ACKs.

Altera network device doesn't come up after ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 up The reason behind is clearing priv->phydev during tse_shutdown(). The phydev is not restored back at tse_open(). Resubmiting as to follow Tobias Klauser suggestion. phy_start/phy_stop are called on each ifup/ifdown and phy_disconnect is called once during the module removal.

Previously, mlx4_mt_rereg_write filled the MPT's entity_size with the old MTT's page shift, which could result in using an incorrect offset. Fix the initialization to be after we calculate the new MTT offset. In addition, assign mtt order to -1 after calling mlx4_mtt_cleanup. This is necessary in order to mark the MTT as invalid and avoid freeing it later.

Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui: "First of all, the most important change is the thermal cpu cooling fixes. The major fix here is to have proper sequencing between cpufreq layer and thermal cpu cooling registration. A take away of this fix is an improvement in the thermal drivers code. Thermal drivers that require cpu cooling do not need to check for cpufreq layer. The requirement now is to propagate the error code, if any, while registering cpu cooling device. Thanks to Viresh for implementing the required CPUfreq changes. Second, a new driver is introduced for int340x processor thermal device. Given that int340x thermal is disabled by default, and this processor thermal device is only available on limited platforms, plus the driver does nothing but exposes some thermal limitation information for user space to use, thus I think it is safe to include it in this pull request after missing 3.19-rc2.

Commit 2457aec6 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible") has added a separate parameter for specifying gfp mask for radix tree allocations. Not only this is less than optimal from the API point of view because it is error prone, it is also buggy currently because grab_cache_page_write_begin is using GFP_KERNEL for radix tree and if fgp_flags doesn't contain FGP_NOFS (mostly controlled by fs by AOP_FLAG_NOFS flag) but the mapping_gfp_mask has __GFP_FS cleared then the radix tree allocation wouldn't obey the restriction and might recurse into filesystem and cause deadlocks. This is the case for most filesystems unfortunately because only ext4 and gfs2 are using AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Let's simply remove radix_gfp_mask parameter because the allocation context is same for both page cache and for the radix tree. Just make sure that the radix tree gets only the sane subset of the mask (e.g. do not pass __GFP_WRITE). Long term it is more preferable to convert remaining users of AOP_FLAG_NOFS to use mapping_gfp_mask instead and simplify this interface even further.

-
Paolo Bonzini authored
Before commit 0e60b079 (kvm: change memslot sorting rule from size to GFN, 2014-12-01), the memslots' sorting key was npages, meaning that a valid memslot couldn't have its sorting key equal to zero. On the other hand, a valid memslot can have base_gfn == 0, and invalid memslots are identified by base_gfn == npages == 0. Because of this, commit 0e60b079 broke the invariant that invalid memslots are at the end of the mslots array. When a memslot with base_gfn == 0 was created, any invalid memslot before it were left in place. This can be fixed by changing the insertion to use a ">=" comparison instead of "<=", but some care is needed to avoid breaking the case of deleting a memslot; see the comment in update_memslots. Thanks to Tiejun Chen for posting an initial patch for this bug.

Netlink families can exist in multiple namespaces, and for the most part multicast subscriptions are per network namespace. Thus it only makes sense to have bind/unbind notifications per network namespace. To achieve this, pass the network namespace of a given client socket to the bind/unbind functions. Also do this in generic netlink, and there also make sure that any bind for multicast groups that only exist in init_net is rejected. This isn't really a problem if it is accepted since a client in a different namespace will never receive any notifications from such a group, but it can confuse the family if not rejected (it's also possible to silently (without telling the family) accept it, but it would also have to be ignored on unbind so families that take any kind of action on bind/unbind won't do unnecessary work for invalid clients like that.
