Andi Kleen 9e94cd325b Move sysctl check into debugging section and don't make it default y
I noticed that sysctl_check.o was the largest object file in
a allnoconfig build in kernel/*.

  36243       0       0   36243    8d93 kernel/sysctl_check.o

This is because it was default y and && EMBEDDED. But I don't
really see a need for a non kernel developer to have their
sysctls checked all the time.

So move the Kconfig into the kernel debugging section and
also drop the default y and the EMBEDDED check.

David Woodhouse 5e6b83ed8c Fix header export of videodev2.h, ivtv.h, ivtvfb.h
The exported copy of videodev2.h contains this line:

	#define #include <sys/time.h>

This is because for some reason it defines __user for itself -- despite
the fact that we remove all instances of __user when exporting headers.
_All_ pointers in userspace are user pointers. Fix it by removing the
unnecessary '#define __user' from the file.

The new headers ivtv.h and ivtvfb.h would have the same problem... if
whoever put them there had actually remembered to add them to the Kbuild
file while he was at it. Fix those too, and export them as was
presumably intended.

Note that includes of <linux/compiler.h> are also stripped by the header
export process, so those don't need to be conditional.

Brian King 915be02441 [SCSI] ibmvfc: Fixup host state during reinit
If an ELS is received while the virtual fibre channel adapter is going
through its discovery, a flag is set which causes discovery to get
re-driven. However, the hosts's state does not get set back to
IBMVFC_INITIALIZING and scsi_block_requests does not get called again,
which can result in queuecommand ops getting sent during
discovery. This should not occur and may cause problems. One example
is that we may no longer be logged into the target we send the command
to, resulting in a failure which should not have occurred.

Andrew Vasquez c795c1e4b6 [SCSI] qla2xxx: Explicitly tear-down vports during PCI remove_one().
During internal testing, we've seen issues (hangs) with the
'deferred' vport tear-down-processing typically accompanied with
the fc_remove_host() call.  This is due to the current
implementation's back-end vport handling being performed by the
physical-HA's DPC thread where premature shutdown could lead to
latent vport requests without a processor.

This should also address a problem reported by Gal Rosen
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=121731664417358&w=2) where the
driver would attempt to awaken a previously torn-down DPC thread
from interrupt context by implicitly calling wake_up_process()
rather than the driver's qla2xxx_wake_dpc() helper.  Rather, than
reshuffle the remove_one() device-removal code, during unload,
depend on the driver's timer to wake-up the DPC process, by
limiting wake-ups based on an 'unloading' flag.

Andrew Vasquez 6390d1f33f [SCSI] qla2xxx: Correct synchronization of software/firmware fcport states.
Greg Wettstein (greg@enjellic.com) noted:

	http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/43409

on a reboot of a previously recognized SCST target, the initiator
driver would be unable to re-recognize the device as a target.
It turns out that prior to the SCST software reloading and
returning it's "target-capable" abilities in the PRLI payload,
the HBA would be re-initialized as an initiator-only type port.
Since initiators typically classify themselves as an FCP-2
capable device, both software and firmware do not perform an
explicit logout during port-loss.  Unfortunately, as can be seen
by the failure case, when the port (now target-capable) returns,
firmware performs an ADISC without a follow-on PRLI, leaving
stale 'initiator-only' data in the firmware's port database.

Correct the discrepancy by performing the explicit logout during
the transport's request to terminate-rport-io, thus synchronizing
port states and ensuring a follow-on PRLI is performed.

Nicolas Pitre 16f719de62 [ARM] 5196/1: fix inline asm constraints for preload
With gcc 4.3 and later, a pointer that has already been dereferenced is
assumed not to be null since it should have caused a segmentation fault
otherwise, hence any subsequent test against NULL is optimized away.

Current inline asm constraint used in the implementation of prefetch()
makes gcc believe that the pointer is dereferenced even though the PLD
instruction does not load any data and does not cause a segmentation
fault on null pointers, which causes all sorts of interesting results
when reaching the end of a linked lists for example.

Let's use a better constraint to properly represent the actual usage of
the pointer value.

Problem reported by Chris Steel.

This function has two loops, but they each interpret the memory_limit

whereas the second loop interprets it as an "address limit".

Before the second loop runs, reset memory_limit to lmb_end_of_DRAM()

Rusty Russell f42157cb56 tun: fallback if skb_alloc() fails on big packets
skb_alloc produces linear packets (using kmalloc()).  That can fail,
so should we fall back to making paged skbs.

My original version of this patch always allocate paged skbs for big
packets.  But that made performance drop from 8.4 seconds to 8.8
seconds on 1G lguest->Host TCP xmit.  So now we only do that as a
fallback.

Rusty Russell db543c1f97 net: skb_copy_datagram_from_iovec()
There's an skb_copy_datagram_iovec() to copy out of a paged skb, but
nothing the other way around (because we don't do that).

We want to allocate big skbs in tun.c, so let's add the function.
It's a carbon copy of skb_copy_datagram_iovec() with enough changes to
be annoying.

Mark McLoughlin e3b9955697 tun: TUNGETIFF interface to query name and flags
Add a TUNGETIFF interface so that userspace can query a
tun/tap descriptor for its name and flags.

This is needed because it is common for one app to create
a tap interface, exec another app and pass it the file
descriptor for the interface. Without TUNGETIFF the spawned
app has no way of detecting wheter the interface has e.g.
IFF_VNET_HDR set.

Herbert Xu 04a0551c87 loopback: Drop obsolete ip_summed setting
Now that the network stack can handle inbound packets with partial
checksums, we should no longer clobber the ip_summed field in the
loopback driver.  This is because CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY implies that
the checksum field is actually valid which is not true for loopback
packets since it's only partial (and thus complemented).

This allows packets from lo to then be SNATed to an external source
while still preserving the checksum's validity.

Herbert Xu 6f85a124d8 net: Preserve netfilter attributes in skb_gso_segment using __copy_skb_header
skb_gso_segment didn't preserve some attributes in the original skb
such as the netfilter fields.  This was harmless until they were used
which is the case for packets going through lo.

This patch makes it call __copy_skb_header which also picks up some
other missing attributes.

Herbert Xu f22f8567cb loopback: Enable TSO
This patch enables TSO since the loopback device is naturally
capable of handling packets of any size.  This also means that
we won't enable GSO on lo which is good until GSO is fixed to
preserve netfilter state as netfilter treats loopback packets
in a special way.
