98d2ff8bec nl80211: Add option to adjust transmit power
This patch adds transmit power setting type and transmit power level attributes
to NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY in order to facilitate adjusting of the transmit power
level of the device.

The added attributes allow selection of automatic, limited or fixed transmit
power level, with the level definable in signed mBm format.

fa61cf70a6 cfg80211/mac80211: Update set_tx_power to use mBm instead of dBm units
In preparation for a TX power setting interface in the nl80211, change the
.set_tx_power function to use mBm units instead of dBm for greater accuracy and
smaller power levels.

Also, already in advance move the tx_power_setting enumeration to nl80211.

This change affects the .tx_set_power function prototype. As a result, the
corresponding changes are needed to modules using it. These are mac80211,
iwmc3200wifi and rndis_wlan.

16b8a4761c net: Introduce u64_stats_sync infrastructure
To properly implement 64bits network statistics on 32bit or 64bit hosts,
we provide one new type and four methods, to ease conversions.

Stats producer should use following template granted it already got an
exclusive access to counters (include/linux/u64_stats_sync.h contains
some documentation about details)

    u64_stats_update_begin(&stats->syncp);
    stats->bytes64 += len;
    stats->packets64++;
    u64_stats_update_end(&stats->syncp);

While a consumer should use following template to get consistent
snapshot :

    u64 tbytes, tpackets;
    unsigned int start;

    do {
        start = u64_stats_fetch_begin(&stats->syncp);
        tbytes = stats->bytes64;
        tpackets = stats->packets64;
    } while (u64_stats_fetch_retry(&stats->lock, syncp));

f90754c15f mac80211: Add interface for driver to temporarily disable dynamic ps
This mechanism introduced in this patch applies (at least) for hardware
designs using a single shared antenna for both WLAN and BT. In these designs,
the antenna must be toggled between WLAN and BT.

In those hardware, managing WLAN co-existence with Bluetooth requires WLAN
full power save whenever there is Bluetooth activity in order for WLAN to be
able to periodically relinquish the antenna to be used for BT. This is because
BT can only access the shared antenna when WLAN is idle or asleep.

Some hardware, for instance the wl1271, are able to indicate to the host
whenever there is BT traffic. In essence, the hardware will send an indication
to the host whenever there is, for example, SCO traffic or A2DP traffic, and
will send another indication when the traffic is over.

The hardware gets information of Bluetooth traffic via hardware co-existence
control lines - these lines are used to negotiate the shared antenna
ownership. The hardware will give the antenna to BT whenever WLAN is sleeping.

This patch adds the interface to mac80211 to facilitate temporarily disabling
of dynamic power save as per request of the WLAN driver. This interface will
immediately force WLAN to full powersave, hence allowing BT coexistence as
described above.

In these kind of shared antenna desings, when WLAN powersave is fully disabled,
Bluetooth will not work simultaneously with WLAN at all. This patch does not
address that problem. This interface will not change PSM state, so if PSM is
disabled it will remain so. Solving this problem requires knowledge about BT
state, and is best done in user-space.

c68cd6cc21 netfilter: nf_nat: support user-specified SNAT rules in LOCAL_IN
2.6.34 introduced 'conntrack zones' to deal with cases where packets
from multiple identical networks are handled by conntrack/NAT. Packets
are looped through veth devices, during which they are NATed to private
addresses, after which they can continue normally through the stack
and possibly have NAT rules applied a second time.

This works well, but is needlessly complicated for cases where only
a single SNAT/DNAT mapping needs to be applied to these packets. In that
case, all that needs to be done is to assign each network to a seperate
zone and perform NAT as usual. However this doesn't work for packets
destined for the machine performing NAT itself since its corrently not
possible to configure SNAT mappings for the LOCAL_IN chain.

This patch adds a new INPUT chain to the NAT table and changes the
targets performing SNAT to be usable in that chain.

Example usage with two identical networks (192.168.0.0/24) on eth0/eth1:

iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j CT --zone 1
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j MARK --set-mark 1
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -j CT --zone 2
iptabels -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -j MARK --set-mark 2

iptables -t nat -A INPUT       -m mark --mark 1 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.0.0/24
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m mark --mark 1 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.0.0/24
iptables -t nat -A INPUT       -m mark --mark 2 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.1.0/24
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -m mark --mark 2 -j NETMAP --to 10.0.1.0/24

iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -d 10.0.0.0/24 -j CT --zone 1
iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT     -d 10.0.0.0/24 -j CT --zone 1
iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -d 10.0.1.0/24 -j CT --zone 2
iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT     -d 10.0.1.0/24 -j CT --zone 2

317fe0e6c5 inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structures

Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes.

This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields,
that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer.
rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing.

Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while.

We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation.

5933dd2f02 net: NET_SKB_PAD should depend on L1_CACHE_BYTES
In old kernels, NET_SKB_PAD was defined to 16.

Then commit d6301d3dd1 (net: Increase default NET_SKB_PAD to 32), and
commit 18e8c134f4 (net: Increase NET_SKB_PAD to 64 bytes) increased it
to 64.

While first patch was governed by network stack needs, second was more
driven by performance issues on current hardware. Real intent was to
align data on a cache line boundary.

So use max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES) instead of 64, to be more generic.

Remove microblaze and powerpc own NET_SKB_PAD definitions.

aa1039e73c inetpeer: RCU conversion
inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock.

It's possible to make most lookups use RCU

1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer

2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic
lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup().

3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is
needed in case we fall in a loop.

4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert.

5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take
last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase
refcount, even while we hold peers.lock.

6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that
lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash.

7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup.
   Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a
concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form.
   If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed
again.

8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock

9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because
rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 ->
128 bytes)
In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu
field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts &
tcp_ts_stamp. These fields being manipulated only with refcnt > 0.

ff61638105 mac80211: Fix ps-qos network latency handling
The ps-qos latency handling is broken. It uses predetermined latency values
to select specific dynamic PS timeouts. With common AP configurations, these
values overlap with beacon interval and are therefore essentially useless
(for network latencies less than the beacon interval, PSM is disabled.)

This patch remedies the problem by replacing the predetermined network latency
values with one high value (1900ms) which is used to go trigger full psm. For
backwards compatibility, the value 2000ms is still mapped to a dynamic ps
timeout of 100ms.

Currently also the mac80211 internal value for storing user space configured
dynamic PSM values is incorrectly in the driver visible ieee80211_conf struct.
Move it to the ieee80211_local struct.

c18370f5b2 netpoll: Add netpoll_tx_running
This patch adds the helper netpoll_tx_running for use within
ndo_start_xmit.  It returns non-zero if ndo_start_xmit is being
invoked by netpoll, and zero otherwise.

This is currently implemented by simply looking at the hardirq
count.  This is because for all non-netpoll uses of ndo_start_xmit,
IRQs must be enabled while netpoll always disables IRQs before
calling ndo_start_xmit.

de85d99eb7 netpoll: Fix RCU usage
The use of RCU in netpoll is incorrect in a number of places:

1) The initial setting is lacking a write barrier.
2) The synchronize_rcu is in the wrong place.
3) Read barriers are missing.
4) Some places are even missing rcu_read_lock.
5) npinfo is zeroed after freeing.

This patch fixes those issues.  As most users are in BH context,
this also converts the RCU usage to the BH variant.

0902b469bd netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementation
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to
identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time.

Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new
label.  The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option.  If
more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted
whenever any of the rules get a hit.

One entry for each timer is created in sysfs.  This attribute contains the
timer remaining for the timer to expire.  The attributes are located under
the xt_idletimer class:

/sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label>

When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the
userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

685429623f mac80211: Fix circular locking dependency in ARP filter handling
There is a circular locking dependency when configuring the

The locking in this case is quite complex. Fix the problem by rewriting the
way the hardware ARP filter list is handled - i.e. make a copy of the address
list to the bss_conf struct, and provide that list to the hardware driver
when needed.

The current patch will enable filtering also in promiscuous mode. This may need
to be changed in the future.

commit 66018506e1 (ip: Router Alert RCU conversion) introduced RCU

When ip_ra_control() deletes an ip_ra_chain, it should make sure
ip_call_ra_chain() users can not start to use socket during the rcu
grace period. It should also delay the sock_put() after the grace
period, or we risk a premature socket freeing and corruptions, as
raw sockets are not rcu protected yet.

This delay avoids using expensive atomic_inc_not_zero() in
ip_call_ra_chain().

597a264b1a net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matches
Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will
drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and
is not one of the special pkts tested for in
skb_bond_should_drop().  This behavior is different then
the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan.

For example,

vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx

will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any
packet handlers at all.  However,

bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx

and

bond0 -> ethx

will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev,
because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a
slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only
delivers them to exact matches.

This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging
skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the
skb to continue to skb_netif_recv().  Here we add
logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it
is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly.  This
makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers
a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves.
Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be
delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others
be dropped out right in the vlan path.

I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes
and load balancing modes.

# bond0 -> ethx

# vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx

# bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx

# bond0 -> ethx
            |
  vlanx -> --

a8b690f98b tcp: Fix slowness in read /proc/net/tcp
This patch address a serious performance issue in reading the
TCP sockets table (/proc/net/tcp).

Reading the full table is done by a number of sequential read
operations.  At each read operation, a seek is done to find the
last socket that was previously read.  This seek operation requires
that the sockets in the table need to be counted up to the current
file position, and to count each of these requires taking a lock for
each non-empty bucket.  The whole algorithm is O(n^2).

The fix is to cache the last bucket value, offset within the bucket,
and the file position returned by the last read operation.   On the
next sequential read, the bucket and offset are used to find the
last read socket immediately without needing ot scan the previous
buckets  the table.  This algorithm t read the whole table is O(n).

The improvement offered by this patch is easily show by performing
cat'ing /proc/net/tcp on a machine with a lot of connections.  With
about 182K connections in the table, I see the following:

- Without patch
time cat /proc/net/tcp > /dev/null

real	1m56.729s
user	0m0.214s
sys	1m56.344s

- With patch
time cat /proc/net/tcp > /dev/null

real	0m0.894s
user	0m0.290s
sys	0m0.594s

bb1d912323 bonding: allow user-controlled output slave selection
v2: changed bonding module version, modified to apply on top of changes
from previous patch in series, and updated documentation to elaborate on
multiqueue awareness that now exists in bonding driver.

This patch give the user the ability to control the output slave for
round-robin and active-backup bonding.  Similar functionality was
discussed in the past, but Jay Vosburgh indicated he would rather see a
feature like this added to existing modes rather than creating a
completely new mode.  Jay's thoughts as well as Neil's input surrounding
some of the issues with the first implementation pushed us toward a
design that relied on the queue_mapping rather than skb marks.
Round-robin and active-backup modes were chosen as the first users of
this slave selection as they seemed like the most logical choices when
considering a multi-switch environment.

Round-robin mode works without any modification, but active-backup does
require inclusion of the first patch in this series and setting
the 'all_slaves_active' flag.  This will allow reception of unicast traffic on
any of the backup interfaces.

This was tested with IPv4-based filters as well as VLAN-based filters
with good results.

More information as well as a configuration example is available in the
patch to Documentation/networking/bonding.txt.

14f92952bf ssb: add dma_dev to ssb_device structure
Add dma_dev, a pointer to struct device, to struct ssb_device.  We pass it
to the generic DMA API with SSB_BUSTYPE_PCI and SSB_BUSTYPE_SSB.
ssb_devices_register() sets up it properly.

This is preparation for replacing the ssb bus specific DMA API (ssb_dma_*)
with the generic DMA API.

2b2c009ecf mac80211: Add support for hardware ARP query filtering
Some hardware allow extended filtering of ARP frames not intended for
the host. To perform such filtering, the hardware needs to know the current
IP address(es) of the host, bound to its interface.

Add support for ARP filtering to mac80211 by adding a new op to the driver
interface, allowing to configure the current IP addresses. This op is called
upon association with the currently configured address(es), and when
associated whenever the IP address(es) change.

This patch adds configuration of IPv4 addresses only, as IPv6 addresses don't
need ARP filtering.

b5f7e75547 ipv4: add LINUX_MIB_IPRPFILTER snmp counter
Christoph Lameter mentioned that packets could be dropped in input path
because of rp_filter settings, without any SNMP counter being

problem.

This patch introduces a new counter, LINUX_MIB_IPRPFILTER, incremented
each time we drop a packet because Reverse Path Filter triggers.

(We receive an IPv4 datagram on a given interface, and find the route to
send an answer would use another interface)

252aa631f8 cfg80211: make action channel type optional
When sending action frames, we want to verify
that we do that on the correct channel. However,
checking the channel type in addition can get in
the way, since the channel type could change on
the fly during an association, and it's not
useful to have the channel type anyway since it
has no effect on the transmission. Therefore,
make it optional to specify so that if wanted,
it can still be checked, but is not required.

ab95bfe01f net: replace hooks in __netif_receive_skb V5
What this patch does is it removes two receive frame hooks (for bridge and for
macvlan) from __netif_receive_skb. These are replaced them with a single
hook for both. It only supports one hook per device because it makes no
sense to do bridging and macvlan on the same device.

Then a network driver (of virtual netdev like macvlan or bridge) can register
an rx_handler for needed net device.

614f60fa9d packet_mmap: expose hw packet timestamps to network packet capture utilities
This patch adds a setting, PACKET_TIMESTAMP, to specify the packet
timestamp source that is exported to capture utilities like tcpdump by
packet_mmap.

PACKET_TIMESTAMP accepts the same integer bit field as
SO_TIMESTAMPING.  However, only the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE and
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE values are currently recognized by
PACKET_TIMESTAMP.  SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE takes precedence over
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE if both bits are set.

If PACKET_TIMESTAMP is not set, a software timestamp generated inside
the networking stack is used (the behavior before this setting was
added).

79640a4ca6 net: add additional lock to qdisc to increase throughput
When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc
spinlock suffers from very high contention.

The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire
the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for
this lock for each dequeued packet.

One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second
lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see
__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set.

The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main
lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate.

Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to
avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the
cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock
lock as late as possible.

Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000
pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.
(A single netperf flow can reach ~800.000 pps on this platform)

for j in `seq 0 3`; do
  for i in `seq 0 7`; do
    netperf -H 192.168.0.1 -t UDP_STREAM -l 60 -N -T $i -- -m 6 &

__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING is always changed while qdisc lock is held.

We can avoid two atomic operations in xmit path, if we move this bit in
a new __state container.

Location of this __state container is carefully chosen so that fast path
only dirties one qdisc cache line.

THROTTLED bit could later be moved into this __state location too, to
avoid dirtying first qdisc cache line.

b1faf56664 net: sock_queue_err_skb() dont mess with sk_forward_alloc
Correct sk_forward_alloc handling for error_queue would need to use a
backlog of frames that softirq handler could not deliver because socket
is owned by user thread. Or extend backlog processing to be able to
process normal and error packets.

Another possibility is to not use mem charge for error queue, this is
what I implemented in this patch.

06c4648d46 arp_notify: allow drivers to explicitly request a notification event.
Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the
address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable
faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches
to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a
temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current
conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues
when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use
to explicitly trigger the notification.
