23af60398a mmc: remove multiwrite capability
Relax requirements on host controllers and only require that they do not
report a transfer count than is larger than the actual one (i.e. a lower
value is okay). This is how many other parts of the kernel behaves so
upper layers should already be prepared to handle that scenario. This
gives us a performance boost on MMC cards.

7d2be0749a atmel-mci: Driver for Atmel on-chip MMC controllers
This is a driver for the MMC controller on the AP7000 chips from
Atmel. It should in theory work on AT91 systems too with some
tweaking, but since the DMA interface is quite different, it's not
entirely clear if it's worth merging this with the at91_mci driver.

This driver has been around for a while in BSPs and kernel sources
provided by Atmel, but this particular version uses the generic DMA
Engine framework (with the slave extensions) instead of an
avr32-only DMA controller framework.

This driver can also use PIO transfers when no DMA channels are
available, and for transfers where using DMA may be difficult or
impractical for some reason (e.g. the DMA setup overhead is usually
not worth it for very short transfers, and badly aligned buffers or
lengths are difficult to handle.)

Currently, the driver only support PIO transfers. DMA support has been
split out to a separate patch to hopefully make it easier to review.

The driver has been tested using mmc-block and ext3fs on several SD,
SDHC and MMC+ cards. Reads and writes work fine, with read transfer
rates up to 3.5 MiB/s on fast cards with debugging disabled.

The driver has also been tested using the mmc_test module on the same
cards. All tests except 7, 9, 15 and 17 succeed. The first two are
unsupported by all the cards I have, so I don't know if the driver
handles this correctly. The last two fail because the hardware flags a
Data CRC Error instead of a Data Timeout error. I'm not sure how to deal
with that.

Documentation for this controller can be found in many data sheets from
Atmel, including the AT32AP7000 data sheet which can be found here:

ad3868b2ec mmc,sdio: helper function for transfer padding
There are a lot of crappy controllers out there that cannot handle
all the request sizes that the MMC/SD/SDIO specifications require.
In case the card driver can pad the data to overcome the problems,
this commit adds a helper that calculates how much that padding
should be.

A corresponding helper is also added for SDIO, but it can also deal
with all the complexities of splitting up a large transfer efficiently.

c4223c2c91 au1xmmc: remove db1200 board code, rewrite probe.
Remove the DB1200 board-specific functions (card present, read-only,
activity LED methods) and instead add platform data which is passed
to the driver.  This also allows for platforms to implement other
carddetect schemes (e.g. dedicated irq) without having to pollute the
driver code.  The poll timer (used for pb1200) is kept for compatibility.

With the board-specific stuff gone, the driver's ->probe() code can be

08f80bb519 mmc: change .get_ro() callback semantics
Now get_ro() callback must return 0/1 values for its logical states, and
negative errno values in case of error. If particular host instance doesn't
support RO/WP switch, it should return -ENOSYS.

This patch changes some hosts in two ways:

1. Now functions should be smart to not return negative values in
   "RO asserted" case (particularly gpio_ calls could return negative
   values for the outermost GPIOs).

   Also, board code usually passes get_ro() callbacks that directly return
   gpioreg & bit result, so at91_mci, imxmmc, pxamci and mmc_spi's get_ro()
   handlers need take special care when returning platform's values to the
   mmc core.

2. In case of host instance didn't implement get_ro() callback, it should
   really return -ENOSYS and let the mmc core decide what to do about it
   (mmc core thinks the same way as the hosts, so it isn't functional
   change).

7f624d023b RDMA/core: Add iWARP protocol statistics attributes in sysfs
This patch adds a sysfs attribute group called "proto_stats" under
/sys/class/infiniband/$device/ and populates this group with protocol
statistics if they exist for a given device.  Currently, only iWARP
stats are defined, but the code is designed to allow InfiniBand
protocol stats if they become available.  These stats are per-device
and more importantly -not- per port.

Details:

- Add union rdma_protocol_stats in ib_verbs.h.  This union allows
  defining transport-specific stats.  Currently only iwarp stats are
  defined.

- Add struct iw_protocol_stats to define the current set of iwarp
  protocol stats.

- Add new ib_device method called get_proto_stats() to return protocol
  statistics.

- Add logic in core/sysfs.c to create iwarp protocol stats attributes
  if the device is an RNIC and has a get_proto_stats() method.

00f7ec36c9 RDMA/core: Add memory management extensions support
This patch adds support for the IB "base memory management extension"
(BMME) and the equivalent iWARP operations (which the iWARP verbs
mandates all devices must implement).  The new operations are:

 - Allocate an ib_mr for use in fast register work requests.

 - Allocate/free a physical buffer lists for use in fast register work
   requests.  This allows device drivers to allocate this memory as
   needed for use in posting send requests (eg via dma_alloc_coherent).

 - New send queue work requests:
   * send with remote invalidate
   * fast register memory region
   * local invalidate memory region
   * RDMA read with invalidate local memory region (iWARP only)

Consumer interface details:

 - A new device capability flag IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS is added
   to indicate device support for these features.

 - New send work request opcodes IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR, IB_WR_LOCAL_INV,
   IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV are added.

 - A new consumer API function, ib_alloc_mr() is added to allocate
   fast register memory regions.

 - New consumer API functions, ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list() and
   ib_free_fast_reg_page_list() are added to allocate and free
   device-specific memory for fast registration page lists.

 - A new consumer API function, ib_update_fast_reg_key(), is added to
   allow the key portion of the R_Key and L_Key of a fast registration
   MR to be updated.  Consumers call this if desired before posting
   a IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR work request.

Consumers can use this as follows:

 - MR is allocated with ib_alloc_mr().

 - Page list memory is allocated with ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list().

 - MR R_Key/L_Key "key" field is updated with ib_update_fast_reg_key().

 - MR made VALID and bound to a specific page list via
   ib_post_send(IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR)

 - MR made INVALID via ib_post_send(IB_WR_LOCAL_INV),
   ib_post_send(IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV) or an incoming send with
   invalidate operation.

 - MR is deallocated with ib_dereg_mr()

 - page lists dealloced via ib_free_fast_reg_page_list().

Applications can allocate a fast register MR once, and then can
repeatedly bind the MR to different physical block lists (PBLs) via
posting work requests to a send queue (SQ).  For each outstanding
MR-to-PBL binding in the SQ pipe, a fast_reg_page_list needs to be
allocated (the fast_reg_page_list is owned by the low-level driver
from the consumer posting a work request until the request completes).
Thus pipelining can be achieved while still allowing device-specific
page_list processing.

The 32-bit fast register memory key/STag is composed of a 24-bit index
and an 8-bit key.  The application can change the key each time it
fast registers thus allowing more control over the peer's use of the
key/STag (ie it can effectively be changed each time the rkey is
rebound to a page list).

The tpacket_hdr is not 64 bit clean due to use of an unsigned long

Add support for a version 2 tpacket protocol that removes these

Userspace can query the header size through a new getsockopt option
and change the protocol version through a setsockopt option. The
changes needed to switch to the new protocol version are:

1. replace struct tpacket_hdr by struct tpacket2_hdr
2. query header len and save
3. set protocol version to 2
 - set up ring as usual
4. for getting the sockaddr_ll, use (void *)hdr + TPACKET_ALIGN(hdrlen)
   instead of (void *)hdr + TPACKET_ALIGN(sizeof(struct tpacket_hdr))

Steps 2 and 4 can be omitted if the struct sockaddr_ll isn't needed.

585583d95c powerpc: Fix pte_update for CONFIG_PTE_64BIT and !PTE_ATOMIC_UPDATES
Because the pte is now 64-bits the compiler was optimizing the update
to always clear the upper 32-bits of the pte.  We need to ensure the
clr mask is treated as an unsigned long long to get the proper behavior.

0ea522416b tipc: Remove unneeded parameter to tipc_createport_raw()
This patch eliminates an unneeded parameter when creating a low-level
TIPC port object.  Instead of returning both the pointer to the port
structure and the port's reference ID, it now returns only the pointer
since the port structure contains the reference ID as one of its fields.

f271b2cc78 tun: Fix/rewrite packet filtering logic
Please see the following thread to get some context on this
	http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=121564433018903&w=2

Basically the issue is that current multi-cast filtering stuff in
the TUN/TAP driver is seriously broken.
Original patch went in without proper review and ACK. It was broken and
confusing to start with and subsequent patches broke it completely.
To give you an idea of what's broken here are some of the issues:

- Very confusing comments throughout the code that imply that the
character device is a network interface in its own right, and that packets
are passed between the two nics. Which is completely wrong.

- Wrong set of ioctls is used for setting up filters. They look like
shortcuts for manipulating state of the tun/tap network interface but
in reality manipulate the state of the TX filter.

- ioctls that were originally used for setting address of the the TX filter
got "fixed" and now set the address of the network interface itself. Which
made filter totaly useless.

- Filtering is done too late. Instead of filtering early on, to avoid
unnecessary wakeups, filtering is done in the read() call.

The list goes on and on :)

So the patch cleans all that up. It introduces simple and clean interface for
setting up TX filters (TUNSETTXFILTER + tun_filter spec) and does filtering
before enqueuing the packets.

TX filtering is useful in the scenarios where TAP is part of a bridge, in
which case it gets all broadcast, multicast and potentially other packets when
the bridge is learning. So for example Ethernet tunnelling app may want to
setup TX filters to avoid tunnelling multicast traffic. QEMU and other
hypervisors can push RX filtering that is currently done in the guest into the
host context therefore saving wakeups and unnecessary data transfer.

4d3702b62e x86: Rename "ignore" macro in <asm/dwarf2.h> to avoid collision
Commit 70f1bba4 ("x86: use ignore macro instead of hash comment") breaks
the 64-bit x86 build on toolchains that have CONFIG_AS_CFI undefined with:

    arch/x86/lib/csum-copy_64.S:48: Error: Macro `ignore' was already defined

because <asm/dwarf2.h> now uses the ignore macro name itself.  Fix this
by changing to __cfi_ignore in dwarf2.h.
