abf07acbb9 [NETNS]: Fix loopback network namespace initialization.
The core patchset of the network namespace sent by
Eric Biederman does not do dynamic loopback creation.
So there is no call to alloc_netdev_mq which fills the
network namespace field of the netdevice.

This patch assign the loopback to the init network namespace.

ce286d3273 [NET]: Implement network device movement between namespaces
This patch introduces NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL a flag to indicate
a network device is local to a single network namespace and
should never be moved.  Useful for pseudo devices that we
need an instance in each network namespace (like the loopback
device) and for any device we find that cannot handle multiple
network namespaces so we may trap them in the initial network
namespace.

This patch introduces the function dev_change_net_namespace
a function used to move a network device from one network
namespace to another.  To the network device nothing
special appears to happen, to the components of the network
stack it appears as if the network device was unregistered
in the network namespace it is in, and a new device
was registered in the network namespace the device
was moved to.

This patch sets up a namespace device destructor that
upon the exit of a network namespace moves all of the
movable network devices  to the initial network namespace
so they are not lost.

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

e9dc865340 [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

1b8d7ae42d [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.
This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

4b6aa59999 [IrDA]: Kingsun KS-959 IrDA USB driver
This dongle does not follow the usb-irda specification, so it needs its own
special driver. First, it uses control URBs for data transfer, instead of
bulk or interrupt transfers; the only interrupt endpoint exposed seems to
be a dummy to prevent the interface from being rejected. Second, it uses
obfuscation and padding at the USB traffic level, for no apparent reason
other than to make reverse engineering harder (full details on obfuscation
in comments at beginning of source). Although it is advertised as a "4 Mbps
FIR dongle", it apparently loses packets at speeds greater than 57600 bps.

On plugin, this dongle reports vendor and device IDs: 0x07d0:0x4959 .

The Windows driver that is used normally to control this dongle has a
filename of KS-959.SYS .

special driver. Just like the Kingsun/Donshine dongle, it exposes two

0bcc181618 [NET] netconsole: Support dynamic reconfiguration using configfs
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

This patch introduces support for dynamic reconfiguration (adding, removing
and/or modifying parameters of netconsole targets at runtime) using a
userspace interface exported via configfs.  Documentation is also updated
accordingly.

Issues and brief design overview:

(1) Kernel-initiated creation / destruction of kernel objects is not
    possible with configfs -- the lifetimes of the "config items" is managed
    exclusively from userspace.  But netconsole must support boot/module
    params too, and these are parsed in kernel and hence netpolls must be
    setup from the kernel.  Joel Becker suggested to separately manage the
    lifetimes of the two kinds of netconsole_target objects -- those created
    via configfs mkdir(2) from userspace and those specified from the
    boot/module option string.  This adds complexity and some redundancy here
    and also means that boot/module param-created targets are not exposed
    through the configfs namespace (and hence cannot be updated / destroyed
    dynamically).  However, this saves us from locking / refcounting
    complexities that would need to be introduced in configfs to support
    kernel-initiated item creation / destroy there.

(2) In configfs, item creation takes place in the call chain of the
    mkdir(2) syscall in the driver subsystem.  If we used an ioctl(2) to
    create / destroy objects from userspace, the special userspace program is
    able to fill out the structure to be passed into the ioctl and hence
    specify attributes such as local interface that are required at the time
    we set up the netpoll.  For configfs, this information is not available at
    the time of mkdir(2).  So, we keep all newly-created targets (via
    configfs) disabled by default.  The user is expected to set various
    attributes appropriately (including the local network interface if
    required) and then write(2) "1" to the "enabled" attribute.  Thus,
    netpoll_setup() is then called on the set parameters in the context of
    _this_ write(2) on the "enabled" attribute itself.  This design enables
    the user to reconfigure existing netconsole targets at runtime to be
    attached to newly-come-up interfaces that may not have existed when
    netconsole was loaded or when the targets were actually created.  All this
    effectively enables us to get rid of custom ioctls.

(3) Ultra-paranoid configfs attribute show() and store() operations, with
    sanity and input range checking, using only safe string primitives, and
    compliant with the recommendations in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt.

(4) A new function netpoll_print_options() is created in the netpoll API,
    that just prints out the configured parameters for a netpoll structure.
    netpoll_parse_options() is modified to use that and it is also exported to
    be used from netconsole.

b5427c2717 [NET] netconsole: Support multiple logging targets
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

This patch introduces support for multiple targets, independent of
CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC -- this is useful even in the default case and
(including the infrastructure introduced in previous patches) doesn't really
add too many bytes to module text.  All the complexity (and size) comes with
the dynamic reconfigurability / userspace interface patch, and so it's
plausible users may want to keep this enabled but that disabled (say to avoid
a dependency on CONFIG_CONFIGFS_FS too).

Also update documentation to mention the use of ";" separator to specify
multiple logging targets in the boot/module option string.

Brief overview:

We maintain a target_list (and corresponding lock).  Get rid of the static
"default_target" and introduce allocation and release functions for our
netconsole_target objects (but keeping sure to preserve previous behaviour
such as default values).  During init_netconsole(), ";" is used as the
separator to identify multiple target specifications in the boot/module option
string.  The target specifications are parsed and netpolls setup.  During
exit, the target_list is torn down and all items released.

17951f34b0 [NET] netconsole: Introduce netconsole_netdev_notifier
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

To update fields of underlying netpoll structure at runtime on corresponding
NETDEV_CHANGEADDR or NETDEV_CHANGENAME notifications.

ioctl(SIOCSIFHWADDR or SIOCSIFNAME) could be used to change the hardware/MAC
address or name of the local interface that our netpoll is attached to.
Whenever this happens, netdev notifier chain is called out with the
NETDEV_CHANGEADDR or NETDEV_CHANGENAME event message.  We respond to that and
update the local_mac or dev_name field of the struct netpoll.  This makes
sense anyway, but is especially required for dynamic netconsole because the
netpoll structure's internal members become user visible files when either
sysfs or configfs are used.  So this helps us to keep up with the MAC
address/name changes and keep values in struct netpoll uptodate.

[ Note that ioctl(SIOCSIFADDR) to change IP address of interface at
  runtime is not handled (to update local_ip of netpoll) on purpose --
  some setups may set the local_ip to a private address, not necessary
  the actual IP address of the sender host, as presently allowed. ]

df180e369c [NET] netconsole: Introduce netconsole_target
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

Introduce a wrapper structure over netpoll to represent logging targets
configured in netconsole.  This will get extended with other members in
further patches.

This is done independent of the (to-be-introduced) NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC config
option so that we're able to drastically cut down on the #ifdef complexity of
final netconsole.c.  Also, struct netconsole_target would be required for
multiple targets support also, and not just dynamic reconfigurability.

d2b60881e2 [NET] netconsole: Simplify boot/module option setup logic
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

Presently, boot/module parameters are set up quite differently for the case of
built-in netconsole (__setup() -> obsolete_checksetup() ->
netpoll_parse_options() -> strlen(config) == 0 in init_netconsole()) vs
modular netconsole (module_param_string() -> string copied to the config
variable -> strlen(config) != 0 init_netconsole() -> netpoll_parse_options()).

This patch makes both of them similar by doing exactly the equivalent of a
module_param_string() in option_setup() also -- just copying the param string
passed from the kernel command line into "config" variable.  So,
strlen(config) != 0 in both cases, and netpoll_parse_options() is always
called from init_netconsole(), thus making the setup logic for both cases
similar.

Now, option_setup() is only ever called / used for the built-in case, so we
put it inside a #ifndef MODULE, otherwise gcc will complain about
option_setup() being "defined but not used".  Also, the "configured" variable
is redundant with this patch and hence removed.

Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

The (!np.dev) check in write_msg() is bogus (always false), because: np.dev is
set by netpoll_setup(), which is called by init_netconsole() before
register_console(), so write_msg() cannot be triggered unless netpoll_setup()
successfully set np.dev.  Also np.dev cannot go away from under us, because
netpoll_setup() grabs us reference on it.  So let's remove the bogus check.

devices interconnected with each other.

Mainly it allows to communicate between network namespaces but
it can be used as is as well.

The newlink callback is organized that way to make it easy to
create the peer device in the separate namespace when we have
them in kernel.

This implementation uses another interface - the RTM_NRELINK
message introduced by Patric.

bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

    cpuidle: Configure governors by default

    Quoting Len "Do not give an option to users to shoot themselves in the foot".

    Remove the configurability of ladder and menu governors as they are
    needed for default policy of cpuidle. That way users will not be able to
    have cpuidle without any policy loosing all C-state power savings.

    Change the registration return codes for when CPUIDLE
    support is not compiled into the kernel.  As a result, the ACPI

    However, it may be possible to cleanup the ACPI processor driver further

    CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver

    Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and
    limit state entry depth internally, rather than exposing such
    requirements to CPUIDLE.  As a result, CPUIDLE can drop this
    ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent.  BM
    activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
    original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
    verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

    cpuidle: re-write

    Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
    weight.  The following is a list of changes:

    1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
    2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
    CPUIDLE drivers directly
    3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
    cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
    4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
    5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
    negative values
    6.) a variety of other small cleanups

    Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
    CPUIDLE sysfs inteface.  On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
    poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
    supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
    handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

    cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor

    Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
    full advantage of NO_HZ.  I call it the 'menu' governor because it
    considers the full list of idle states before each entry.

    I've kept the implementation fairly simple.  It attempts to guess the
    next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
    the break-even point between power savings and entry cost.  To this end,
    it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
    constraints:
         1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
            is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
            to C2-type or above.
         2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
         3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
            the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
            excluding timer interrupts.

    This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
    proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
    using the tick infrastructure.  Also, it handles device interrupt
    activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
    event calculations.  Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
    number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
    makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
    time deltas.

    The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
    interface like so:
    "echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

    x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from

    cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.

    Also, cpuidle look at the return values of attch_driver() and set

    cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure

    Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
    idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
    cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
    of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
    at run time.
    A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
    varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
    A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
    laptop on battery etc).
    Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
    of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.

    A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
    since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.

    This patch:

    Core cpuidle infrastructure.
    Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
    * which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
      can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
    * allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
      decision
    * The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
      about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.

2e61c646ed mlx4_core: Use mmiowb() to avoid firmware commands getting jumbled up
Firmware commands are sent to the HCA by writing multiple words to a
command register block.  Access to this block of registers is
serialized with a mutex.  However, on large SGI systems writes to the
register block may be reordered within the system interconnect and
reach the HCA in a different order than they were issued (even with
the mutex).  Fix this by adding an mmiowb() before dropping the mutex.

This bug was observed with real workloads with the similar FW command
code in the mthca driver, and adding the mmiowb() as in commit
66547550 ("IB/mthca: Use mmiowb() to avoid firmware commands getting
jumbled up") was confirmed to fix the problems, so we should add the
same fix to mlx4.

6b0b594bb8 [POWERPC] qe: miscellaneous code improvements and fixes to the QE library
This patch makes numerous miscellaneous code improvements to the QE library.

1. Remove struct ucc_common and merge ucc_init_guemr() into ucc_set_type()
   (every caller of ucc_init_guemr() also calls ucc_set_type()).  Modify all
   callers of ucc_set_type() accordingly.

2. Remove the unused enum ucc_pram_initial_offset.

3. Refactor qe_setbrg(), also implement work-around for errata QE_General4.

4. Several printk() calls were missing the terminating \n.

5. Add __iomem where needed, and change u16 to __be16 and u32 to __be32 where
   appropriate.

6. In ucc_slow_init() the RBASE and TBASE registers in the PRAM were programmed
   with the wrong value.

7. Add the protocol type to struct us_info and updated ucc_slow_init() to
   use it, instead of always programming QE_CR_PROTOCOL_UNSPECIFIED.

8. Rename ucc_slow_restart_x() to ucc_slow_restart_tx()

9. Add several macros in qe.h (mostly for slow UCC support, but also to
   standardize some naming convention) and remove several unused macros.

10. Update ucc_geth.c to use the new macros.

11. Add ucc_slow_info.protocol to specify which QE_CR_PROTOCOL_xxx protcol
    to use when initializing the UCC in ucc_slow_init().

12. Rename ucc_slow_pram.rfcr to rbmr and ucc_slow_pram.tfcr to tbmr, since
    these are the real names of the registers.

13. Use the setbits, clrbits, and clrsetbits where appropriate.

14. Refactor ucc_set_qe_mux_rxtx().

15. Remove all instances of 'volatile'.

16. Simplify get_cmxucr_reg();

17. Replace qe_mux.cmxucrX with qe_mux.cmxucr[].

18. Updated struct ucc_geth because struct ucc_fast is not padded any more.
