To use DFS in IBSS mode, userspace is required to react to radar events.
It can inform nl80211 that it is capable of doing so by adding a
NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS attribute when joining the IBSS.
This attribute is supplied to let the kernelspace know that the
userspace application can and will handle radar events, e.g. by
intiating channel switches to a valid channel. DFS channels may
only be used if this attribute is supplied and the driver supports
it. Driver support will be checked even if a channel without DFS
will be initially joined, as a DFS channel may be chosen later.

When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS,
we send an action frame to each associated station and
reconfigure the channel context / driver.
Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored.
The beacon isn't updated. The association response will
include the original capabilities. Stations that associate
while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right
after association to inform them about our current state.
Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an
action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue
for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL
frames in MIMO anyway.
When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g.
STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep
We remember that they don't know about the change and send
the action frame when they wake up.
When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g.
OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA.
uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action
frame, but this is for a short period of time.

With the removal of the routing cache, we lost the
option to tweak the garbage collector threshold
along with the maximum routing cache size. So git
commit 703fb94ec ("xfrm: Fix the gc threshold value
for ipv4") moved back to a static threshold.
It turned out that the current threshold before we
start garbage collecting is much to small for some
workloads, so increase it from 1024 to 32768. This
means that we start the garbage collector if we have
more than 32768 dst entries in the system and refuse
new allocations if we are above 65536.

Patch ed08495c3 "tcp: use RTT from SACK for RTO" always re-arms RTO upon
obtaining a RTT sample from newly sacked data.
But technically RTO should only be re-armed when the data sent before
the last (re)transmission of write queue head are (s)acked. Otherwise
the RTO may continue to extend during loss recovery on data sent
in the future.
Note that RTTs from ACK or timestamps do not have this problem, as the RTT
source must be from data sent before.
The new RTO re-arm policy is
1) Always re-arm RTO if SND.UNA is advanced
2) Re-arm RTO if sack RTT is available, provided the sacked data was
sent before the last time write_queue_head was sent.

Pekka Pietikäinen reports xt_socket behavioural change after commit
00028aa37098o (netfilter: xt_socket: use IP early demux).
Reason is xt_socket now no longer does an unconditional sk lookup -
it re-uses existing skb->sk if possible, assuming ->sk was set by
ip early demux.
However, when netfilter is invoked via bridge, this can cause 'bogus'
sockets to be examined by the match, e.g. a 'tun' device socket.
bridge netfilter should orphan the skb just like the routing path
before invoking ipv4/ipv6 netfilter hooks to avoid this.

Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were
not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the
kernel. The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g.
J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened
when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted.
In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial:
During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch
CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called.
It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and
one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task
thread info pointer.
Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been
detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for
%cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly
turned zero after the firmware call.
So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes
became clear:
- On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this
problem.
- Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task
thread info pointer was below 4GB.
- Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because
the upper 32bit were zero anyay.
- Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread
info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary.
Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register
before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI and power management fixes from
"These fix two bugs in the intel_pstate driver, a hibernate bug leading
to nasty resume failures sometimes and acpi-cpufreq initialization bug
that causes problems to happen during module unload when intel_pstate
is in use.
Specifics:
- Fix for rounding errors in intel_pstate causing CPU utilization to
be underestimated from Brennan Shacklett.
- intel_pstate fix to always use the correct max pstate value when
computing the min pstate from Dirk Brandewie.
- Hibernation fix for deadlocking resume in cases when the probing of
the device containing the image is deferred from Russ Dill.
- acpi-cpufreq fix to prevent the module from staying in memory when
the driver cannot be registered and then attempting to unregister
things that have never been registered on exit"
* tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm:
acpi-cpufreq: Fail initialization if driver cannot be registered
PM / hibernate: Move software_resume to late_initcall_sync
intel_pstate: Correct calculation of min pstate value
intel_pstate: Improve accuracy by not truncating until final result
Remove AX_MEDIUM_ALWAYS_ONE in AX_MEDIUM_STATUS_MODE register.
Setting this bit may cause TX throttling in Half-Duplex mode.

On receiving a packet too big icmp error we check if our current cached
dst_entry in the socket is still valid. This validation check did not
care about the expiration of the (cached) route.
The error path I traced down:
The socket receives a packet too big mtu notification. It still has a
valid dst_entry and thus issues the ip6_rt_pmtu_update on this dst_entry,
setting RTF_EXPIRE and updates the dst.expiration value (which could
fail because of not up-to-date expiration values, see previous patch).
In some seldom cases we race with a) the ip6_fib gc or b) another routing
lookup which would result in a recreation of the cached rt6_info from its
parent non-cached rt6_info. While copying the rt6_info we reinitialize the
metrics store by copying it over from the parent thus invalidating the
just installed pmtu update (both dsts use the same key to the inetpeer
storage). The dst_entry with the just invalidated metrics data would
just get its RTF_EXPIRES flag cleared and would continue to stay valid
for the socket.
We should have not issued the pmtu update on the already expired dst_entry
in the first placed. By checking the expiration on the dst entry and
doing a relookup in case it is out of date we close the race because
we would install a new rt6_info into the fib before we issue the pmtu
update, thus closing this race.
Not reliably updating the dst.expire value was fixed by the patch "ipv6:
reset dst.expires value when clearing expire flag".

On receiving a packet too big icmp error we update the expire value by
calling rt6_update_expires. This function uses dst_set_expires which is
implemented that it can only reduce the expiration value of the dst entry.
If we insert new routing non-expiry information into the ipv6 fib where
we already have a matching rt6_info we only clear the RTF_EXPIRES flag
in rt6i_flags and leave the dst.expires value as is.
When new mtu information arrives for that cached dst_entry we again
call dst_set_expires. This time it won't update the dst.expire value
because we left the dst.expire value intact from the last update. So
dst_set_expires won't touch dst.expires.
Fix this by resetting dst.expires when clearing the RTF_EXPIRE flag.
dst_set_expires checks for a zero expiration and updates the
dst.expires.
In the past this (not updating dst.expires) was necessary because
dst.expire was placed in a union with the dst_entry *from reference
and rt6_clean_expires did assign NULL to it. This split happend in
ecd9883724 ("ipv6: fix race condition
regarding dst->expires and dst->from").

Right now skb->data is passed to rx_hook() even if the skb
has not been linearised and without giving rx_hook() a way
to linearise it.
Change the rx_hook() interface and make it accept the skb
and the offset to the UDP payload as arguments. rx_hook() is
also renamed to rx_skb_hook() to ensure that out of the tree
users notice the API change.
In this way any rx_skb_hook() implementation can perform all
the needed operations to properly (and safely) access the
skb data.

In every netconsole option that can be set through configfs there's a
race when checking for nt->enabled since it can be modified at the same
time. Probably the most damage can be done by store_enabled when racing
with another instance of itself. Fix all the races with one stone by
moving the mutex lock around the ->store call for all options.

We need to disable the netconsole (enabled = 0) before setting nt->np.dev
to NULL because otherwise we might still have users after the
netpoll_cleanup() since nt->enabled is set afterwards and we can
have a message which will result in a NULL pointer dereference.
It is very easy to hit dereferences all over the netpoll_send_udp function
by running the following two loops in parallel:
while [ 1 ]; do echo 1 > enabled; echo 0 > enabled; done;
while [ 1 ]; do echo 00:11:22:33:44:55 > remote_mac; done;
(the second loop is to generate messages, it can be done by anything)
We're safe to set nt->np.dev = NULL and nt->enabled = 0 with the spinlock
since it's required in the write_msg() function.

There is also a C function doing the same thing. Unless the asm code is
110% faster we could stick to the C function.
