When two cards are connected with the same regulatory domain
if CRDA had a delayed response then cfg80211's own set regulatory
domain would still be the world regulatory domain. There was a bug
on cfg80211's logic such that it assumed that once you pegged a
request as the last request it was already the currently set
regulatory domain. This would mean we would race setting a stale
regulatory domain to secondary cards which had the same regulatory
domain since the alpha2 would match.
We fix this by processing each regulatory request atomically,
and only move on to the next one once we get it fully processed.
In the case CRDA is not present we will simply world roam.
This issue is only present when you have a slow system and the
CRDA processing is delayed. Because of this it is not a known
regression.
Without this fix when a delay is present with CRDA the second card
would end up with an intersected regulatory domain and not allow it
to use the channels it really is designed for. When two cards with
two different regulatory domains were inserted you'd end up
rejecting the second card's regulatory domain request.
This fails with mac80211_hswim's regtest=2 (two requests, same alpha2)
and regtest=3 (two requests, different alpha2) module parameter
options.
This was reproduced and tested against mac80211_hwsim using this
CRDA delayer:
#!/bin/bash
echo $COUNTRY >> /tmp/log
sleep 2
/sbin/crda.orig
And these regulatory tests:
modprobe mac80211_hwsim regtest=2
modprobe mac80211_hwsim regtest=3

With the current default 'vepa' mode, a KVM guest using virtio with
macvtap backend has the following limitations.
- cannot change/add a mac address on the guest virtio-net
- cannot create a vlan device on the guest virtio-net
- cannot enable promiscuous mode on guest virtio-net
To address these limitations, this patch introduces a new mode called
'passthru' when creating a macvlan device which allows takeover of the
underlying device and passing it to a guest using virtio with macvtap
backend.
Only one macvlan device is allowed in passthru mode and it inherits
the mac address from the underlying device and sets it in promiscuous
mode to receive and forward all the packets.

(hcd->self.uses_dma is true for MUSB as well).
Split the uses_dma flag into two - one that says if the
controller needs to use PIO for control transfers, and
another which says if the controller uses DMA (for all
other transfers).
Also, populate this flag for all MUSB by default.

Some board/card/host configurations are not capable of powering off the
card after boot.
To support such configurations, and to allow smoother transition to
runtime PM behavior, MMC_CAP_POWER_OFF_CARD is added, so hosts need to
explicitly indicate whether it's OK to power off their cards after boot.
SDIO core will enable runtime PM for a card only if that cap is set.
As a result, the card will be powered down after boot, and will only
be powered up again when a driver is loaded (and then it's up to the
driver to decide whether power will be kept or not).
This will prevent sdio_bus_probe() failures with setups that do not
support powering off the card.

Remove pc variable to avoid arithmetic to compute fentry at each filter
instruction. Jumps directly manipulate fentry pointer.
As the last instruction of filter[] is guaranteed to be a RETURN, and
all jumps are before the last instruction, we dont need to check filter
bounds (number of instructions in filter array) at each iteration, so we
remove it from sk_run_filter() params.
On x86_32 remove f_k var introduced in commit 57fe93b374
(filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory)
Note : We could use a CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{FEW|MANY}_REGISTERS in order to
avoid too many ifdefs in this code.
This helps compiler to use cpu registers to hold fentry and A
accumulator.
On x86_32, this saves 401 bytes, and more important, sk_run_filter()
runs much faster because less register pressure (One less conditional
branch per BPF instruction)

Currently we have in something like the sched_switch event:
field:char prev_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1;
When a userspace tool such as perf tries to parse this, the
TASK_COMM_LEN is meaningless. This is done because the TRACE_EVENT() macro
simply uses a #len to show the string of the length. When the length is
an enum, we get a string that means nothing for tools.
By adding a static buffer and a mutex to protect it, we can store the
string into that buffer with snprintf and show the actual number.
Now we get:
field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1;
Something much more useful.

The original idea for this implementation came from the rt2x00 driver
(rt2x00link.c). I would like to use it in several places in the mac80211 and

The various stack tracing routines take a 'bp' argument in which the
caller is supposed to provide the base pointer to use, or 0 if doesn't
have one. Since bp is garbage whenever CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not
defined, this means all callers in principle should either always pass
0, or be conditional on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.
However, there are only really three use cases for stack tracing:
(a) Trace the current task, including IRQ stack if any
(b) Trace the current task, but skip IRQ stack
(c) Trace some other task
In all cases, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, bp should just
be 0. If it _is_ defined, then
- in case (a) bp should be gotten directly from the CPU's register, so
the caller should pass NULL for regs,
- in case (b) the caller should should pass the IRQ registers to
dump_trace(),
- in case (c) bp should be gotten from the top of the task's stack, so
the caller should pass NULL for regs.
Hence, the bp argument is not necessary because the combination of
task and regs is sufficient to determine an appropriate value for bp.
This patch introduces a new inline function stack_frame(task, regs)
that computes the desired bp. This function is then called from the
two versions of dump_stack().

This patch is a logical extension of the protection provided by
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to LKMs. The protection is provided by
splitting module_core and module_init into three logical parts
each and setting appropriate page access permissions for each
individual section:
1. Code: RO+X
2. RO data: RO+NX
3. RW data: RW+NX
In order to achieve proper protection, layout_sections() have
been modified to align each of the three parts mentioned above
onto page boundary. Next, the corresponding page access
permissions are set right before successful exit from
load_module(). Further, free_module() and sys_init_module have
been modified to set module_core and module_init as RW+NX right
before calling module_free().
By default, the original section layout and access flags are
preserved. When compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y,
the patch will page-align each group of sections to ensure that
each page contains only one type of content and will enforce
RO/NX for each group of pages.
-v1: Initial proof-of-concept patch.
-v2: The patch have been re-written to reduce the number of #ifdefs
and to make it architecture-agnostic. Code formatting has also
been corrected.
-v3: Opportunistic RO/NX protection is now unconditional. Section
page-alignment is enabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y.
-v4: Removed most macros and improved coding style.

Introduce a new sysctl for the shares window and disambiguate it from
sched_time_avg.
A 10ms window appears to be a good compromise between accuracy and performance.

By tracking a per-cpu load-avg for each cfs_rq and folding it into a
global task_group load on each tick we can rework tg_shares_up to be
strictly per-cpu.
This should improve cpu-cgroup performance for smp systems
significantly.

While discussing the need for sched_idle_next(), Oleg remarked that
since try_to_wake_up() ensures sleeping tasks will end up running on a
sane cpu, we can do away with migrate_live_tasks().
If we then extend the existing hack of migrating current from
CPU_DYING to migrating the full rq worth of tasks from CPU_DYING, the
need for the sched_idle_next() abomination disappears as well, since
idle will be the only possible thread left after the migration thread
stops.
This greatly simplifies the hot-unplug task migration path, as can be
seen from the resulting code reduction (and about half the new lines
are comments).

Now that the bulk of the old nmi_watchdog is gone, remove all
the stub variables and hooks associated with it.
This touches lots of files mainly because of how the io_apic
nmi_watchdog was implemented. Now that the io_apic nmi_watchdog
is forever gone, remove all its fingers.
Most of this code was not being exercised by virtue of
nmi_watchdog != NMI_IO_APIC, so there shouldn't be anything to
risky here.

Now that we have a new nmi_watchdog that is more generic and
sits on top of the perf subsystem, we really do not need the old
nmi_watchdog any more.
In addition, the old nmi_watchdog doesn't really work if you are
using the default clocksource, hpet. The old nmi_watchdog code
relied on local apic interrupts to determine if the cpu is still
alive. With hpet as the clocksource, these interrupts don't
increment any more and the old nmi_watchdog triggers false
postives.
This piece removes the old nmi_watchdog code and stubs out any
variables and functions calls. The stubs are the same ones used
by the new nmi_watchdog code, so it should be well tested.
