mac80211's software queues were designed to work very closely with device tx queues. They are required to make use of 802.11 packet aggregation easily and efficiently. Due to the way 802.11 aggregation is designed it only makes sense to keep fair queuing as close to hardware as possible to reduce induced latency and inertia and provide the best flow responsiveness. This change doesn't translate directly to immediate and significant gains. End result depends on driver's induced latency. Best results can be achieved if driver keeps its own tx queue/fifo fill level to a minimum.

Qdiscs are designed with no regard to 802.11 aggregation requirements and hand out packet-by-packet with no guarantee they are destined to the same tid. This does more bad than good no matter how fairly a given qdisc may behave on an ethernet interface. Software queuing used per-AC netdev subqueue congestion control whenever a global AC limit was hit. This meant in practice a single station or tid queue could starve others rather easily. This could resonate with qdiscs in a bad way or could just end up with poor aggregation performance. Increasing the AC limit would increase induced latency which is also bad. Disabling qdiscs by default and performing taildrop instead of netdev subqueue congestion control on the other hand makes it possible for tid queues to fill up "in the meantime" while preventing stations starving each other. This increases aggregation opportunities and should allow software queuing based drivers achieve better performance by utilizing airtime more efficiently with big aggregates.

The driver extended capabilities may differ for different interface types which the userspace needs to know (for example the fine timing measurement initiator and responder bits might differ for a station and AP). Add a new nl80211 attribute to provide extended capabilities per interface type to userspace.

Previously, the status parameter to cfg80211_connect_result() was documented as using WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE (1) when the real status code for the failure is not known. This value can be used by an AP (and often is) and as such, user space cannot distinguish between explicitly rejected authentication/association and not being able to even try to associate or not receiving a response from the AP. Add a new inline function, cfg80211_connect_timeout(), to be used when the driver knows that the connection attempt failed due to a reason where connection could not be attempt or no response was received from the AP. The internal functions now allow a negative status value (-1) to be used as an indication of this special case. This results in the NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT to be added to the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT event to allow user space to determine this case was hit. For backwards compatibility, NL80211_STATUS_CODE with the value WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE is still indicated in the event in such a case.

While wiphys can be moved into network namespaces over nl80211, the creation and removal of hwsim radios is currently limited to the initial namespace. This patch allows management of namespaced radios from the owning namespace by setting genetlink netnsok. To prevent two arbitrary namespaces to communicate over the simulated shared medium, radios are separated by netgroups. Each radio created in the same namespace lives in the same netgroup and hence can communicate with other radios in that group. When moving radios to other namespaces, the netgroup is preserved, so two radios having the same netgroup can communicate even if not in the same namespace; This allows a controlling namespace to create radios and move them to other namespaces for communication. When a net namespace owning a radio exits, the radio is destroyed unless it was created in the initial network namespace. This keeps the previous behavior by returning them to the init namespace, but prevents unprivileged users from creating radios in the initial namespace.

While a wiphy can be transferred to network namespaces, a process having CAP_NET_ADMIN in a non-initial user namespace can not administrate such devices due to the genetlink GENL_ADMIN_PERM restrictions. For openvswitch having the same issue, a new GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag has been introduced, commit 4a92602a ("openvswitch: allow management from inside user namespaces"). This patch changes all privileged operations operating on a wiphy, dev or wdev to allow their administration using the same mechanism. All operations use either NEED_WIPHY, NEED_WDEV or NEED_NETDEV, which implies a namespace aware lookup of the device. The only exception is NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY, which explicitly uses a namespace aware phy lookup.

The LG1312 platform is completely new and is the first ARM platform by LG that we support in the mainline kernel. Two other SoCs got added that are updated versions of existing SoC families, so the port mainly consists of new dts files: - The Hisilicon Hip06/D03 is the latest server platform from Huawei/Hisilicon, and follows the Hip05/D02 platform. - Rockchip RK3399 follows the 32-bit RK3288 that is popular in low-end Chromebooks and the 64-bit RK3368 that is mainly found in chinese Android TV boxes. The 96Boards HiKey based on the Hisilicon Hi6220 (Kirin 620) gets a long-awaited overhaul with a lot of devices enabled in the DT, so it should be much more usable with a mainline kernel now.

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann: "We get support for three new 32-bit SoC platforms this time. The amount of changes in arch/arm for any of them is miniscule, as all the interesting code is in device driver subsystems (irqchip, clk, pinctrl, ...) these days. I'm listing them here, as the addition of the Kconfig statement is the main relevant milestone for a new platform. In each case, some drivers are are shared with existing platforms, while other drivers are added for v4.7 as well, or come in a later release. - The Aspeed platform is probably the most interesting one, this is what most whitebox servers use as their baseboard management controller. We get support for the very common ast2400 and ast2500 SoCs. The OpenBMC project focuses on this chip, and the LWN article about their ELC 2016 presentation at https://lwn.net/Articles/683320/ triggered the submission, but the code comes from IBM's OpenPOWER team rather than the team at Facebook. There are still a lot more drivers that need to get added over time, and I hope both teams can work together on that. - OXNAS is an old platform for Network Attached Storage devices from Oxford Semiconductor. There are models with ARM10 (!) and ARM11MPCore cores, but for now, we only support the original ARM9 based versions. The product lineup was subsequently part of PLX, Avago and now the new Broadcom Ltd. https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/hardware/soc/soc.oxnas has some more information. - V2M-MPS2 is a prototyping platform from ARM for their Cortex-M cores and is related to the existing Realview / Versatile Express lineup, but without MMU. We now support various NOMMU platforms, so adding a new one is fairly straightforward. http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.100112_0100_03_en/ has detailed information about the platform. Other noteworthy updates: - Work on LPC32xx has resumed, and Vladimir Zapolskiy and Sylvain Lemieux are now maintaining the platform. This is an older ARM9 based platform from NXP (not Freescale), but it remains in use in embedded markets. - Kevin Hilman is now co-maintaining the Amlogic Meson platform for both 32-bit and 64-bit ARM, and started contributing some patches. - As is often the case, work on the OMAP platforms makes up the bulk of the actual SoC code changes in arch/arm, but there isn't a lot of that either" * tag 'armsoc-soc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (42 commits) MAINTAINERS: ARM/Amlogic: add co-maintainer, misc. updates MAINTAINERS: add ARM/NXP LPC32XX SoC specific drivers to the section MAINTAINERS: add new maintainers of NXP LPC32xx SoC MAINTAINERS: move ARM/NXP LPC32xx record to ARM section arm: Add Aspeed machine ARM: lpc32xx: remove duplicate const on lpc32xx_auxdata_lookup ARM: lpc32xx: remove leftovers of legacy clock source and provider drivers ARM: lpc32xx: remove reboot header file ARM: dove: Remove CLK_IS_ROOT ARM: orion5x: Remove CLK_IS_ROOT ARM: mv78xx0: Remove CLK_IS_ROOT ARM: davinci: da850: use clk->set_parent for async3 ARM: davinci: Move clock init after ioremap.

My laptop that uses the intel 7680 iwlwifi module would no longer connects to the network. It would fail with a "Microcode SW error detected." and spew out register state over and over again without ever connecting to the network. The cause is mis-merge in commit 909b27f7, where David seems to have lost some of the changes to iwl_mvm_set_tx_cmd() from commit 5c08b0f5 ("iwlwifi: mvm: don't override the rate with the AMSDU len"). The reason seems to be a conflict with commit d8fe4844 ("iwlwifi: mvm: add support for new TX CMD API"), which touched a line adjacent to the changes in 909b27f7. David missed the fact that "info->driver_data[0]" had become "skb_info->driver_data[0]". Then he removed the skb_info because it was unused. This just re-updates iwl_mvm_set_tx_cmd() with the lost two lines.

There's a three-process deadlock involving shared/exclusive barriers and inverted lock orders in the directory readdir implementation. It's a pre-existing problem with lock ordering, exposed by the VFS parallelisation code. process 1 process 2 process 3 --------- --------- --------- readdir iolock(shared) get_leaf_dents iterate entries ilock(shared) map, lock and read buffer iunlock(shared) process entries in buffer ..... readdir iolock(shared) get_leaf_dents iterate entries ilock(shared) map, lock buffer <blocks> finish ->iterate_shared file_accessed() ->update_time start transaction ilock(excl) <blocks> ..... finishes processing buffer get next buffer ilock(shared) <blocks> And that's the deadlock. Fix this by dropping the current buffer lock in process 1 before trying to map the next buffer. This means we keep the lock order of ilock -> buffer lock intact and hence will allow process 3 to make progress and drop it's ilock(shared) once it is done.
