ceb98d03ea netfilter: xtables: add nfacct match to support extended accounting
This patch adds the match that allows to perform extended
accounting. It requires the new nfnetlink_acct infrastructure.

 # iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --sport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic
 # iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic

9413902796 netfilter: add extended accounting infrastructure over nfnetlink
We currently have two ways to account traffic in netfilter:

- iptables chain and rule counters:

 # iptables -L -n -v
Chain INPUT (policy DROP 3 packets, 867 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination
    8  1104 ACCEPT     all  --  lo     *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0

- use flow-based accounting provided by ctnetlink:

 # conntrack -L
tcp      6 431999 ESTABLISHED src=192.168.1.130 dst=212.106.219.168 sport=58152 dport=80 packets=47 bytes=7654 src=212.106.219.168 dst=192.168.1.130 sport=80 dport=58152 packets=49 bytes=66340 [ASSURED] mark=0 use=1

While trying to display real-time accounting statistics, we require
to pool the kernel periodically to obtain this information. This is
OK if the number of flows is relatively low. However, in case that
the number of flows is huge, we can spend a considerable amount of
cycles to iterate over the list of flows that have been obtained.

Moreover, if we want to obtain the sum of the flow accounting results
that match some criteria, we have to iterate over the whole list of
existing flows, look for matchings and update the counters.

This patch adds the extended accounting infrastructure for
nfnetlink which aims to allow displaying real-time traffic accounting
without the need of complicated and resource-consuming implementation
in user-space. Basically, this new infrastructure allows you to create
accounting objects. One accounting object is composed of packet and
byte counters.

In order to manipulate create accounting objects, you require the
new libnetfilter_acct library. It contains several examples of use:

libnetfilter_acct/examples# ./nfacct-add http-traffic
libnetfilter_acct/examples# ./nfacct-get
http-traffic = { pkts = 000000000000,   bytes = 000000000000 };

Then, you can use one of this accounting objects in several iptables
rules using the new nfacct match (which comes in a follow-up patch):

 # iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --sport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic
 # iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic

The idea is simple: if one packet matches the rule, the nfacct match
updates the counters.

Thanks to Patrick McHardy, Eric Dumazet, Changli Gao for reviewing and
providing feedback for this contribution.

bb52c7acf8 netem: dont call vfree() under spinlock and BH disabled
commit 6373a9a286 (netem: use vmalloc for distribution table) added a
regression, since vfree() is called while holding a spinlock and BH
being disabled.

Fix this by doing the pointers swap in critical section, and freeing
after spinlock release.

Also add __GFP_NOWARN to the kmalloc() try, since we fallback to
vmalloc().

40c1b9cfee m68k: consolidate the vmlinux.lds linker scripts
The merge of m68knommu left the linker scripts a little disorganized.
Some consistent naming and squashing two of scripts that just include
others can simplify things a lot.

So merge the two simple including scripts, and rename the nommu script

1f2aab01ba m68knommu: fix broken ColdFire slice timer read_clk() code
There is a race on reading the ColdFire slice timer current count and the
total clock count so far. Interrupts are off, and we may have just missed
getting a new timer wrap event interrupt. Check for this and adjust the
cycle count and current read count accordingly.

Also the slice timer counts down from the terminal count. So in read_clk()
we need take the current clock count away from the terminal count.

84f3fb7a2a m68k: handle presence of 64bit mul/div instructions cleanly
The traditional 68000 processors and the newer reduced instruction set
ColdFire processors do not support the 32*32->64 multiply or the 64/32->32
divide instructions. This is not a difference based on the presence of
a hardware MMU or not.

Create a new config symbol to mark that a CPU type doesn't support the
longer multiply/divide instructions. Use this then as a basis for using
the fast 64bit based divide (in div64.h) and for linking in the extra
libgcc functions that may be required (mulsi3, divsi3, etc).

7f73bafc46 m68k: simpler m68k and ColdFire CPU's can use generic csum code
We have two implementations of the IP checksuming code for the m68k arch.
One uses the more advanced instructions available in 68020 and above
processors, the other uses the simpler instructions available on the
original 68000 processors and the modern ColdFire processors.

This simpler code is pretty much the same as the generic lib implementation
of the IP csum functions. So lets just switch over to using that. That
means we can completely remove the checksum_no.c file, and only have the
local fast code used for the more complex 68k CPU family members.

479badc364 m68k: make fp register stores consistent for m68k and ColdFire
There is no reason we can't make the saved fp registers the same for all
m68k types and ColdFire. There is a little wasted space, but the code
consistency and cleanliness is a big win.

sigcontext.h is an exported header, but currently there is no in-mainline
users of the !__uClinux__ and __mcoldfire__ case that this change effects.
Even better this change actually makes this structure consistent with
the out-of-mainline ColdFire/MMU code.

e87c09a899 m68k: print memory layout info in boot log
Output a table of the kernel memory regions at boot time.
This is taken directly from the ARM architecture code that does this.
The table looks like this:

Virtual kernel memory layout:
    vector  : 0x00000000 - 0x00000400   (   0 KiB)
    kmap    : 0xd0000000 - 0xe0000000   ( 256 MiB)
    vmalloc : 0xc0000000 - 0xcfffffff   ( 255 MiB)
    lowmem  : 0x00000000 - 0x02000000   (  32 MiB)
      .init : 0x00128000 - 0x00134000   (  48 KiB)
      .text : 0x00020000 - 0x00118d54   ( 996 KiB)
      .data : 0x00118d60 - 0x00126000   (  53 KiB)
      .bss  : 0x00134000 - 0x001413e0   (  53 KiB)

This has been very useful while debugging the ColdFire virtual memory
support code. But in general I think it is nice to know extacly where
the kernel has layed everything out on boot.

d25ba98afc m68k: remove thread_info struct from thread struct
Currently on m68k we have a comeplete thread_info structure stored inside
of the thread_struct, and we also have it in the initial part of the kernel
stack. Mostly the code currently uses the one inside of the thread_struct,
only using the "task" pointer from the stack based one.

This is wasteful and confusing, we should only have the single instance of
thread_info inside the stack page. And this is the norm for all other
architectures.

This change makes m68k handle thread_info consistently on both MMU enabled
and non-MMU setups.

None of the alignment carried out in the the current init_task code

4fd7f9b128 ARM: 7212/1: smp_twd: reconfigure clockevents after cpufreq change
This break-out from Colin Cross' cpufreq-aware TWD patch
will handle the case when our localtimer's clock changes with
the cpu clock. A cpufreq transtion notifier will be registered
only if the platform has supplied a specified clock to the TWD.

After a cpufreq transition, update the clockevent's frequency
by fetching the new clock rate from the clock framework and
reprogram the next clock event.

The necessary changes in the clockevents framework was done by
Thomas Gleixner in kernel v3.0.

ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Replace IS_ERR_OR_NULL() with IS_ERR() in twd_clk check.
- Update code to use the already existing per-cpu array of TWD
  clockevents instead of adding cruft.

[Broke out, ifdef:ed CPUfreq stuff for non-cpufreq configs]
[Rebased to newer TWD base with per-CPU clock array]

5def51b0f8 ARM: 7211/1: smp_twd: get the rate from a clock
This break-out from Colin Cross' cpufreq-aware TWD patch will
optionally retrieve the clock rate of the TWD from an external
clock. A variant of this patch has been proposed by Rob Herring
as well.

The basic idea is to avoid recalibrating the rate of the clock
at boot if the platform already know what rate the clock to the
TWD block has.

ChangeLog v1->v2: added clk_[prepare|unprepare] calls.

be4f1ac828 xfs: log all dirty inodes in xfs_fs_sync_fs
Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for
live lock prevention during sync().  Unfortunately some of these are
actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for
metadata from the data I/O handler.

The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since

    writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback

by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the
current cut off time once.  But on a slow enough devices the previous
asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS
might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for
the blocking pass already happened.  I have not myself reproduced this
myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the
XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily.

Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that
are dirty.  This might log inode that only got redirtied after the
previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it
isn't a major concern for performance.

0b8fd3033c xfs: log the inode in ->write_inode calls for kupdate
If the writeback code writes back an inode because it has expired we currently
use the non-blockin ->write_inode path.  This means any inode that is pinned
is skipped.  With delayed logging and a workload that has very little log
traffic otherwise it is very likely that an inode that gets constantly
written to is always pinned, and thus we keep refusing to write it.  The VM
writeback code at that point redirties it and doesn't try to write it again
for another 30 seconds.  This means under certain scenarious time based
metadata writeback never happens.

Fix this by calling into xfs_log_inode for kupdate in addition to data
integrity syncs, and thus transfer the inode to the log ASAP.
