The function tracing control loop used by perf spits out a warning
if the called function is not a control function. This is because
the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure
on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of
functions.
commit 0a016409e4 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop"
Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize
for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight
race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be
called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we
get the following dump:
root# perf stat -e ftrace:function sleep 1

To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end
ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub. This flag is now checked in the
control loop and the function is not called if the flag is set.

The warning about local_bh_enable inside IRQ happens when disconnecting a
virtual NIC.
The reason for the warning is -- netif_tx_disable() is called when the NIC
is disconnected. And it's called within irq context. netif_tx_disable() calls
local_bh_enable() which displays warning if in irq.
The fix is to remove the unnecessary netif_tx_disable & wake_queue() in the
netvsc_linkstatus_callback().

This fixes a current oops where those functions are called but not

are now optional by design. If a call to an unimplemented function
is attempted, the kernel returns EOPNOTSUPP via netlink.
The following operations are still required: get_phy, get_pan_id,

Until now we didn't handle properly the FLUSH ampdu action
coming from mac80211. This could result in SCD queue leak:
mac80211 would STOP_FLUSH an AMPDU Tx session and remove
the station. If we had still packets on the ring, we
wouldn't deallocate the SCD queue and wait for it to be
empty.
The indication of the queue being empty comes from the Tx
response flow which relies on the tid_data structure. The
problem is that this structure has been cleared when the
station has been removed.
In order to solve this issue, block in the STOP_FLUSH
ampdu_action until the SCD queue is flushed, and only then,
let mac80211 move forward to remove the station.
iwlagn_txfifo_flush had to be enhanced to allow this.
The bug fixed here caused the "txq_id mismatch: 12 0" print.

The sched_clock_remote() implementation has the following inatomicity
problem on 32bit systems when accessing the remote scd->clock, which
is a 64bit value.
CPU0 CPU1
sched_clock_local() sched_clock_remote(CPU0)
...
remote_clock = scd[CPU0]->clock
read_low32bit(scd[CPU0]->clock)
cmpxchg64(scd->clock,...)
read_high32bit(scd[CPU0]->clock)
While the update of scd->clock is using an atomic64 mechanism, the
readout on the remote cpu is not, which can cause completely bogus
readouts.
It is a quite rare problem, because it requires the update to hit the
narrow race window between the low/high readout and the update must go
across the 32bit boundary.
The resulting misbehaviour is, that CPU1 will see the sched_clock on
CPU1 ~4 seconds ahead of it's own and update CPU1s sched_clock value
to this bogus timestamp. This stays that way due to the clamping
implementation for about 4 seconds until the synchronization with
CLOCK_MONOTONIC undoes the problem.
The issue is hard to observe, because it might only result in a less
accurate SCHED_OTHER timeslicing behaviour. To create observable
damage on realtime scheduling classes, it is necessary that the bogus
update of CPU1 sched_clock happens in the context of an realtime
thread, which then gets charged 4 seconds of RT runtime, which results
in the RT throttler mechanism to trigger and prevent scheduling of RT
tasks for a little less than 4 seconds. So this is quite unlikely as
well.
The issue was quite hard to decode as the reproduction time is between
2 days and 3 weeks and intrusive tracing makes it less likely, but the
following trace recorded with trace_clock=global, which uses
sched_clock_local(), gave the final hint:
<idle>-0 0d..30 400269.477150: hrtimer_cancel: hrtimer=0xf7061e80
<idle>-0 0d..30 400269.477151: hrtimer_start: hrtimer=0xf7061e80 ...
irq/20-S-587 1d..32 400273.772118: sched_wakeup: comm= ... target_cpu=0
<idle>-0 0dN.30 400273.772118: hrtimer_cancel: hrtimer=0xf7061e80
What happens is that CPU0 goes idle and invokes
sched_clock_idle_sleep_event() which invokes sched_clock_local() and
CPU1 runs a remote wakeup for CPU0 at the same time, which invokes
sched_remote_clock(). The time jump gets propagated to CPU0 via
sched_remote_clock() and stays stale on both cores for ~4 seconds.
There are only two other possibilities, which could cause a stale
sched clock:
1) ktime_get() which reads out CLOCK_MONOTONIC returns a sporadic
wrong value.
2) sched_clock() which reads the TSC returns a sporadic wrong value.
#1 can be excluded because sched_clock would continue to increase for
one jiffy and then go stale.
#2 can be excluded because it would not make the clock jump
forward. It would just result in a stale sched_clock for one jiffy.
After quite some brain twisting and finding the same pattern on other
traces, sched_clock_remote() remained the only place which could cause
such a problem and as explained above it's indeed racy on 32bit
systems.
So while on 64bit systems the readout is atomic, we need to verify the
remote readout on 32bit machines. We need to protect the local->clock
readout in sched_clock_remote() on 32bit as well because an NMI could
hit between the low and the high readout, call sched_clock_local() and
modify local->clock.
Thanks to Siegfried Wulsch for bearing with my debug requests and
going through the tedious tasks of running a bunch of reproducer
systems to generate the debug information which let me decode the
issue.

If a new netdev (e.g. an AP VLAN) is created while the driver
has queues stopped, the new netdev queues will be started even
though they shouldn't. This will lead to frames accumulating
on the internal mac80211 pending queues instead of properly
being held on the netdev queues.

Given the (nested) switch statements, this code can't
be reached, so make it warn instead of manipulating
the carrier state which seems purposeful.

The netdev queues should always represent the state that
the driver gave them, so fiddling with them isn't really
appropriate in the mlme code. Also, since we stop queues
for flushing now, this really isn't necessary any more.
As the scan/offchannel code has also been modified to no
longer do this a while ago, remove the outdated smp_mb()
and comments about it.
While at it, also add a pair of braces that was missing.

It's unlikely that an AP requires WMM mandatory admission control
for all access categories, and if it does then we still transmit
on the background AC without requesting admission. However, avoid
using uAPSD in this case since the implementation could run into
issues and might use other ACs etc.

This reverts commit 8761a3dc1f.
There are situations where the destruction path is called
with the bdev->bd_mutex already held, which then deadlocks in
loop_clr_fd(). The normal partition cleanup does a trylock()
on the mutex, but it'd be nice to have a more bullet proof
method in loop. So punt this more involved fix to the next
merge window, and just back out this buggy fix for now.

When a device is unplugged while suspended, mac80211 is
de-initialized and all interfaces are removed while no
state is actually present in the driver. This can cause
warnings and driver confusion.
Fix this by reordering the do_stop code to not call the
driver when it is suspended, i.e. when there's no state
in the driver anyway.
The previous patches removed a few corner cases in ROC
and virtual monitor interfaces so that now this is safe
to do and no state should be left over.

It has to be removed from the driver, but completely
destroying it helps handle unplug of a device during
suspend since then the channel context handling etc.
doesn't have to happen later when it's removed.

They can't really be executed while suspended and could
trigger work warnings, so abort all ROC items. When the
system resumes the notifications about this will be
delivered to userspace which can then act accordingly
(though it will assume they were canceled/finished.)

The code now explicitly calls ieee80211_configure_filter()
anyway, so nothing needs to be explained.

Most times that mesh_path_add() is called, it is followed by
a lookup to get the just-added mpath. We can instead just
return the new mpath in the case that we allocated one (or the
existing one if already there), so do that. Also, reorder the
code in mesh_path_add a bit so that we don't need to allocate
in the pre-existing case.

The mesh hwmp debug message is a bit confusing. The "sending PREP
to %p" should be the MAC address of mesh STA that has originated
the PREQ message and the "received PREP from %pM" should be the MAC
address of the mesh STA that has originated the PREP message.

Instead of open-coding the accesses and length check do
the length check in the IE parser and assign a struct
pointer for use in the remaining code.

It's always just one byte, so check for that and
remove the length field from the parser struct.
