John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless 2014-09-05 Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.17 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "Here are a few fixes for mac80211. One has been discussed for a while and adds a terminating NUL-byte to the alpha2 sent to userspace, which shouldn't be necessary but since many places treat it as a string we couldn't move to just sending two bytes. In addition to that, we have two VLAN fixes from Felix, a mesh fix, a fix for the recently introduced RX aggregation offload, a revert for a broken patch (that luckily didn't really cause any harm) and a small fix for alignment in debugfs." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I revert a patch that disabled CTS to self in dvm because users reported issues. The revert is CCed to stable since the offending patch was sent to stable too. I also bump the firmware API versions since a new firmware is coming up. On top of that, Marcel fixes a bug I introduced while fixing a bug in our Kconfig file." Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It is possible that the interface is already gone after joining the list of anycast on this interface as we don't hold a refcount for the device, in this case we are safe to ignore the error. What's more important, for API compatibility we should not change this behavior for applications even if it were correct.

Commit 0244756e ("ufs: sb mutex merge + mutex_destroy") introduces deadlocks in ufs_new_inode() and ufs_free_inode(). Most callers of that functions acqure the mutex by themselves and ufs_{new,free}_inode() do that via lock_ufs(), i.e we have an unavoidable double lock. The patch proposes to resolve the issue by making sure that ufs_{new,free}_inode() are not called with the mutex held. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner: "The fixes all address recently discovered data corruption issues. The original Direct IO issue was discovered by Chris Mason @ Facebook on a production workload which mixed buffered reads with direct reads and writes IO to the same file. The fix for that exposed other issues with page invalidation (exposed by millions of fsx operations) failing due to dirty buffers beyond EOF. Finally, the collapse_range code could also cause problems due to racing writeback changing the extent map while it was being shifted around. The commits for that problem are simple mitigation fixes that prevent the problem from occuring. A more robust fix for 3.18 that addresses the underlying problem is currently being worked on by Brian.

The update_walltime() code works on the shadow timekeeper to make the seqcount protected region as short as possible. But that update to the shadow timekeeper does not update all timekeeper fields because it's sufficient to do that once before it becomes life. One of these fields is tkr.base_mono. That stays stale in the shadow timekeeper unless an operation happens which copies the real timekeeper to the shadow. The update function is called after the update calls to vsyscall and pvclock. While not correct, it did not cause any problems because none of the invoked update functions used base_mono. commit cbcf2dd3 (x86: kvm: Make kvm_get_time_and_clockread() nanoseconds based) changed that in the kvm pvclock update function, so the stale mono_base value got used and caused kvm-clock to malfunction. Put the update where it belongs and fix the issue.

Lendacky, Thomas authored
As the management counters reach a threshold they will generate an interrupt so the value can be saved and the counter reset. The current code does not enable this interrupt on all counters. This can result in inaccurate statistics. Update the code to enable all the counters to generate an interrupt when its threshold is exceeded.

Lendacky, Thomas authored
Even if the management counters are configured to be 32 bit register values, the [rt]xoctetcount_gb and [rt]xoctetcount_g counters are always 64 bit counter registers. Since they are not being treated as 64 bit values, these statistics are being reported incorrectly (ifconfig, ethtool, etc.). Update the routines used to read the registers to access the "hi" register (an offset of 4 from the "lo" register) to create a 64 bit value for these 64 bit counters.

This patch does not affect the 10/100 GRETH MAC. Before all GBit GRETH TX descriptor ring cleaning was done in start_xmit(), when descriptor list became full it activated TX interrupt to start the NAPI rx poll function to do TX ring cleaning. With this patch the TX descriptor ring is always cleaned from the NAPI rx poll function, triggered via TX or RX interrupt. Otherwise we could end up in TX frames being sent but not reported to the stack being sent. On the 10/100 GRETH this is not an issue since the SKB is copied&aligned into private buffers so that the SKB can be freed directly on start_xmit() Signed-off-by: Daniel Hellstrom <daniel@gaisler.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The cnic module needs to ensure that if ipv6 support is compiled as a module, then the cnic module cannot be compiled as built-in as it depends on ipv6.

ahci_xgene: Fix the link down in first attempt for the APM X-Gene SoC AHCI SATA host controller driver. Due to HW errata the APM X-Gene AHCI SATA host controller reports link down even if the device presence is detected. This issue is due to speed negotiation failure. This patch implements the algorithm to retry the COMRESET if PxSTAT register reports device presence detected but PHY communication not established. The maximum retry attempts are 3. This patch also fixes the code to match the algorithm for the printing a warning message if the disparity error still exists after link up.

It seems on 32 bit kernels page_address() can reutrn a NULL value in some circumstances, and the pci_map_single api isn't prepared to handle that (on this system it results in a bogus pointer deference in nommu_map_page. The fix is pretty easy, if we convert the 3c59x driver to use the more convieient skb_frag_dma_map api we don't need to find the virtual address of the page at all, and page gets mapped to the hardware properly. Verified to fix the problem as described by the reporter. Applies to the net tree Change Notes: v2) Converted PCI_DMA_TODEVICE to DMA_TO_DEVICE.
