John W. Linville says: ==================== Please pull this batch of wireless updates intended for the 3.15 stream! For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "We have some cleanups and minor fixes as well as userspace API improvements from a lot of people, extended VHT support for radiotap from Emmanuel, CSA improvements from Andrei, Luca and Michal. I've also included my work on hwsim to make dynamic registration of radios possible." Along with that, we get the usual round of updates to ath9k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, wcn36xx, and the ti drivers -- nothing particularly noteworthy, mostly just random updates and refactoring. Also included is a pull of the wireless tree, intended to resolve some potential merge issues. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

bond->curr_active_slave can be changed between its deferences, even to NULL, and thus we might panic. We're always holding the rcu (rx_handler->bond_handle_frame()->bond_arp_rcv()) so fix this by rcu_dereferencing() it and using the saved.

Currently the kernel tries to announce a zero window when free_space is below the current receiver mss estimate. When a sender is transmitting small packets and reader consumes data slowly (or not at all), receiver might be unable to shrink the receive win because a) we cannot withdraw already-commited receive window, and, b) we have to round the current rwin up to a multiple of the wscale factor, else we would shrink the current window. This causes the receive buffer to fill up until the rmem limit is hit. When this happens, we start dropping packets. Moreover, tcp_clamp_window may continue to grow sk_rcvbuf towards rmem[2] even if socket is not being read from. As we cannot avoid the "current_win is rounded up to multiple of mss" issue [we would violate a) above] at least try to prevent the receive buf growth towards tcp_rmem[2] limit by attempting to move to zero-window announcement when free_space becomes less than 1/16 of the current allowed receive buffer maximum. If tcp_rmem[2] is large, this will increase our chances to get a zero-window announcement out in time. Reproducer: On server: $ nc -l -p 12345 <suspend it: CTRL-Z> Client: #!/usr/bin/env python import socket import time sock = socket.socket() sock.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_TCP, socket.TCP_NODELAY, 1) sock.connect(("192.168.4.1", 12345)); while True: sock.send('A' * 23) time.sleep(0.005) socket buffer on server-side will grow until tcp_rmem[2] is hit, at which point the client rexmits data until -EDTIMEOUT: tcp_data_queue invokes tcp_try_rmem_schedule which will call tcp_prune_queue which calls tcp_clamp_window(). And that function will grow sk->sk_rcvbuf up until it eventually hits tcp_rmem[2]. Thanks to Eric Dumazet for running regression tests.

Erik Hugne authored
When a message could not be sent out because the destination node or link could not be found, the full message size is returned from sendmsg() as if it had been sent successfully. An application will then get a false indication that it's making forward progress. This problem has existed since the initial commit in 2.6.16. We change this to return -ENETUNREACH if the message cannot be delivered due to the destination node/link being unavailable. We also get rid of the redundant tipc_reject_msg call since freeing the buffer and doing a tipc_port_iovec_reject accomplishes exactly the same thing.

In case we decide in udp6_sendmsg to send the packet down the ipv4 udp_sendmsg path because the destination is either of family AF_INET or the destination is an ipv4 mapped ipv6 address, we don't honor the maybe specified ipv4 mapped ipv6 address in IPV6_PKTINFO. We simply can check for this option in ip_cmsg_send because no calls to ipv6 module functions are needed to do so.

I've killed some bits in a couple of DT files which turned out not to be required, and a few other fixes. One fix touches code outside of arch/arm, which is related to sorting out the DMA masks correctly. There is a long standing issue with the conversion from PFNs to addresses where people assume that shifting an unsigned long left by PAGE_SHIFT results in a correct address. This is not the case with C: the integer promotion happens at assignment after evaluation.

The of_mdiobus_register_phy() is not setting phy->irq thus causing some drivers to incorrectly assume that the PHY does not have an IRQ associated with it. Not only do some drivers report no IRQ they do not install an interrupt handler for the PHY. Simplify the code setting irq and set the phy->irq at the same time so that we cover the following issues, which should cover all the cases the code will find: - Set phy->irq if node has irq property and mdio->irq is NULL - Set phy->irq if node has no irq and mdio->irq is not NULL - Leave phy->irq as PHY_POLL default if none of the above This fixes the issue: net eth0: attached PHY 1 (IRQ -1) to driver Micrel KSZ8041RNLI to the correct: net eth0: attached PHY 1 (IRQ 416) to driver Micrel KSZ8041RNLI Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben.dooks@codethink.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

With the introduction of the support for Armada 375 and Armada 38x, the hidden Kconfig option MACH_ARMADA_370_XP is being renamed to MACH_MVEBU_V7. Therefore, the dependency that was used for the mvneta driver can no longer work. This commit replaces this dependency by a dependency on PLAT_ORION, which is used similarly for the mv643xx_eth driver. In addition to this, it takes this opportunity to adjust the description and help text to indicate that the driver can is also used for Armada 38x. Note that Armada 375 cannot use this driver as it has a completely different networking unit, which will require a separate driver.

This patch is an attempt to gather the Ethernet related bindings in one file, like it's done in the MMC and some other subsystems. It should save some of the trouble of documenting several properties over and over in each binding document, instead only making reference to the main file. I have used the Embedded Power Architecture(TM) Platform Requirements (ePAPR) standard as a base for the properties description, also documenting some ad-hoc properties that have been introduced over time despite having direct analogs in ePAPR.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.14 stream... For the iwlwifi one, Emmanuel says: "As explicitly written in the commit message, we prefer to disable Tx AMPDU on NICs supported by iwldvm. This feature gives a big boost in Tx performance, but the firmware is buggy and we can't rely on it. Our hope is that most of the users out there want wifi to surf on the web which means that they care more for Rx traffic than for Tx. People who want to enable it can do so with the help of a module parameter." On top of that... Dan Carpenter fixes a typo/thinko in ath5k. Olivier Langlois fixes a couple of rtlwifi issues, one which leaves IRQs disabled too long (causing a variety of problems elsewhere), and one which fixes an incorrect return code when failing to enable the NIC. Russell King fixes a NULL pointer dereference in hostap. Stanislaw Gruszka fixes a DMA coherence issue in the rtl8187 driver.

Veaceslav Falico says: ==================== bonding: add an option to rely on unvalidated arp packets v4 -> v5: Again per Nik's advise correct the bond_opts restrictions for arp_validate - set it the same as arp_interval. v3 -> v4: Per Nikolay's advise, remove the new bond_opts restriction on modes setting for arp_validate. v2 -> v3: Per Jay's advise, use the 'filter' keyword instead of 'arp' one, and use his text for documentation. Also, rebase on the latest net-next. Sorry for the delay, didn't manage to send it before net-next was closed. v1 -> v2: Don't remove the 'all traffic' functionality - rather, add new arp_validate options to specify that we want *only* unvalidated arps. Currently, if arp_validate is off (0), slave_last_rx() returns the slave->dev->last_rx, which is always updated on *any* packet received by slave, and not only arps. This means that, if the validation of arps is off, we're treating *any* incoming packet as a proof of slave being up, and not only arps. This might seem logical at the first glance, however it can cause a lot of troubles and false-positives, one example would be: The arp_ip_target is NOT accessible, however someone in the broadcast domain spams with any broadcast traffic. This way bonding will be tricked that the slave is still up (as in - can access arp_ip_target), while it's not. The net_device->last_rx is already used in a lot of drivers (even though the comment states to NOT do it :)), and it's also ugly to modify it from bonding. However, some loadbalance setups might rely on the fact that even non-arp traffic is a sign of slave being up - and we definitely can't break anyones config - so an extension to arp_validate is needed. So, to fix this, add an option for the user to specify if he wants to filter out non-arp traffic on unvalidated slaves, remove the last_rx from bonding, *always* call bond_arp_rcv() in slave's rx_handler (which is bond_handle_frame), and if we spot an arp there with this option on - update the slave->last_arp_rx - and use it instead of net_device->last_rx. Finally, rename last_arp_rx to last_rx to reflect the changes. Also rename slave->jiffies to ->last_link_up, to reflect better its meaning, add the new option's documentation and update the arp_validate one to be a bit more descriptive. ==================== Signed-off-by: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
