f705ab956b tipc: limit error messages relating to memory leak to one line
With the default name table size of 1024, it is possible that
the sanity check in tipc_nametbl_stop could spam out 1024
essentially identical error messages if memory was corrupted
or similar.  Limit it to issuing no more than a single message.

The actual chain number (i.e. 0 --> 1023) wouldn't provide any
useful insight if/when such an instance happened, so don't
bother printing out that value.

3ec5a261ae Merge branch 'redirect_via_sock'
As described in my patch series from the other day, we need to
rearrange redirect handling so that the local initiators of packets
(sockets, tunnels, xfrms, etc.) that implement the protocols compute
the route and pass this down into the ipv4/ipv6 routing code.

These changes here do so by implementing a new dst_ops->redirect
method.

No more do we have this funny code that tries several different sets
of routing keys to try and figure out which route the redirect should
actually be applied to.

No more do we have the problem wherein TOS rewriting causes problems
for us.

8e95ea49c9 cfg80211: fix locking and lockdep complaints
To call cfg80211_get_chan_state() we need to lock
the wdev, so we need to lock the wdev_iter mutex
in cfg80211_can_use_iftype_chan(). This needs to
use nested locking for lockdep.

Also, cfg80211_get_chan_state() doesn't actually
use the rdev, so remove that completely including
the lock assertion that isn't needed.

the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE flag which disables
frame aggregation. To allow frame aggregation during fixed

4922f71f25 mac80211: tx: do not drop non-robust mgmt to non-MFP stas.
When drop_unencrypted is enabled and MFP is disabled,
non-robust management frames for not-yet associated STA are dropped.
This isn't visible as many management frames sent from the kernel
have TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT set and management frames injected
from a monitor vif have TX_CTL_INJECTED so aren't dropped.
But management frames sent from userspace via NL80211_CMD_FRAME
do not have this flag set, so are dropped.

This patch make it always accept non-robust management frames.

8c358bcd09 mac80211: add time synchronisation with BSS for assoc
Some drivers (iwlegacy, iwlwifi and rt2x00) today use the
bss_conf.last_tsf value. By itself though that value is
completely worthless since it may be ancient. What really
is needed is synchronisation between some device time and
the TSF.

To clarify this, rename bss_conf.last_tsf to sync_tsf and
add sync_device_ts which is obtained from rx_status which
gets a new field device_timestamp for this purpose. This
is intentionally not using the mactime field since that
is used for other things and in IBSS is expected to sync
with the IBSS's TSF which isn't necessarily true for the
device timestamp.

Also, since we have the information and it's useful even
before the connection has been established, give all the
timing details to the driver before authenticating.

d48b296850 mac80211: redesign scan RX
Scan receive is rather inefficient when there are
multiple virtual interfaces. We iterate all of the
virtual interfaces and then notify cfg80211 about
each beacon many times.

Redesign scan RX to happen before everything else.
Then we can also get rid of IEEE80211_RX_IN_SCAN
since we don't have to accept frames into the RX
handlers for scanning or scheduled scanning any
more. Overall, this simplifies the code.

ebc35c7262 ARM: EXYNOS: register devices in 'need_restore' state for pm_domains
Commit ca1d72f033 ('PM / Domains: Make it possible to add devices to
inactive domains') introduced possibility to add devices to inactive
power domains and added pm_genpd_dev_need_restore() function which lets
platform core to notify power domain core that the specified device must
be restored (with its runtime_resume() callback) before first use.

This patch adds the pm_genpd_dev_need_restore() call what brings back
the suspend/resume behaviour for the client devices known from the
previous power domain driver (removed by commit 91cfbd4ee0 - 'ARM:
EXYNOS: Hook up power domains to generic power domain infrastructure').
Client device drivers relay on that suspend/resume behaviour, thus this
patch fixes runtime pm operation for client devices.

46d3ceabd8 tcp: TCP Small Queues
This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)

TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.

sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.

TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.

As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.

This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.

Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.

Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)

I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.

As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.

If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.

[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
  but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
  These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
  session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
  have no effect.

So try to allocate with PAGE_SIZE alignment and free it later.

99ab7b1944 mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor section
After commit f5bf18fa22 ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint
in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed
outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if
there is space available in that section.  This results in unnecessary
hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the
section holding the usemap.

The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear
search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a
much higher address absent an upper limit.

Fix this by trying the allocation with the limit at the section end,
then retry without if that fails.  This keeps the fix from f5bf18fa22
of not panicking if the allocation does not fit in the section, but
still makes sure to try to stay within the section at first.

07b4e2bc9c mm: sparse: fix section usemap placement calculation
Commit 238305bb4d ("mm: remove sparsemem allocation details from the
bootmem allocator") introduced a bug in the allocation goal calculation
that put section usemaps not in the same section as the node
descriptors, creating unnecessary hotplug dependencies between them:

  node 0 must be removed before remove section 16399
  node 1 must be removed before remove section 16399
  node 2 must be removed before remove section 16399
  node 3 must be removed before remove section 16399
  node 4 must be removed before remove section 16399
  node 5 must be removed before remove section 16399
  node 6 must be removed before remove section 16399

The reason is that it applies PAGE_SECTION_MASK to the physical address
of the node descriptor when finding a suitable place to put the usemap,
when this mask is actually intended to be used with PFNs.  Because the
PFN mask is wider, the target address will point beyond the wanted
section holding the node descriptor and the node must be offlined before
the section holding the usemap can go.

Fix this by extending the mask to address width before use.

b065b4321f shmem: cleanup shmem_add_to_page_cache
shmem_add_to_page_cache() has three callsites, but only one of them wants
the radix_tree_preload() (an exceptional entry guarantees that the radix
tree node is present in the other cases), and only that site can achieve
mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() (PageSwapCache makes it a no-op in the
other cases).  We did it this way originally to reflect
add_to_page_cache_locked(); but it's confusing now, so move the radix_tree
preloading and mem_cgroup uncharging to that one caller.

d189922862 shmem: fix negative rss in memcg memory.stat
When adding the page_private checks before calling shmem_replace_page(), I
did realize that there is a further race, but thought it too unlikely to
need a hurried fix.

But independently I've been chasing why a mem cgroup's memory.stat
sometimes shows negative rss after all tasks have gone: I expected it to
be a stats gathering bug, but actually it's shmem swapping's fault.

It's an old surprise, that when you lock_page(lookup_swap_cache(swap)),
the page may have been removed from swapcache before getting the lock; or
it may have been freed and reused and be back in swapcache; and it can
even be using the same swap location as before (page_private same).

The swapoff case is already secure against this (swap cannot be reused
until the whole area has been swapped off, and a new swapped on); and
shmem_getpage_gfp() is protected by shmem_add_to_page_cache()'s check for
the expected radix_tree entry - but a little too late.

By that time, we might have already decided to shmem_replace_page(): I
don't know of a problem from that, but I'd feel more at ease not to do so
spuriously.  And we have already done mem_cgroup_cache_charge(), on
perhaps the wrong mem cgroup: and this charge is not then undone on the
error path, because PageSwapCache ends up preventing that.

It's this last case which causes the occasional negative rss in
memory.stat: the page is charged here as cache, but (sometimes) found to
be anon when eventually it's uncharged - and in between, it's an
undeserved charge on the wrong memcg.

Fix this by adding an earlier check on the radix_tree entry: it's
inelegant to descend the tree twice, but swapping is not the fast path,
and a better solution would need a pair (try+commit) of memcg calls, and a
rework of shmem_replace_page() to keep out of the swapcache.

We can use the added shmem_confirm_swap() function to replace the
find_get_page+page_cache_release we were already doing on the error path.
And add a comment on that -EEXIST: it seems a peculiar errno to be using,
but originates from its use in radix_tree_insert().

[It can be surprising to see positive rss left in a memcg's memory.stat
after all tasks have gone, since it is supposed to count anonymous but not
shmem.  Aside from sharing anon pages via fork with a task in some other
memcg, it often happens after swapping: because a swap page can't be freed
while under writeback, nor while locked.  So it's not an error, and these
residual pages are easily freed once pressure demands.]
