Commit dc975382 "net: fec: add napi support to improve proformance"
converted the fec driver to the napi model. However, that commit
forgot to remove the call to skb_defer_rx_timestamp which is only
needed in non-napi drivers.
(The function napi_gro_receive eventually calls netif_receive_skb,
which in turn calls skb_defer_rx_timestamp.)
This patch should also be applied to the 3.9 and 3.10 kernels.

While looking into MLDv1/v2 code, I noticed that bridging code does
not convert it's max delay into jiffies for MLDv2 messages as we do
in core IPv6' multicast code.
RFC3810, 5.1.3. Maximum Response Code says:
The Maximum Response Code field specifies the maximum time allowed
before sending a responding Report. The actual time allowed, called
the Maximum Response Delay, is represented in units of milliseconds,
and is derived from the Maximum Response Code as follows: [...]
As we update timers that work with jiffies, we need to convert it.

commit 8728c544a9cbdc ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix") and commit
b6fe83e9525a ("bonding: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability")
are quite incompatible : Queue selection is disabled because skb
dst was dropped before entering bonding device.
This causes major performance regression, mainly because TCP packets
for a given flow can be sent to multiple queues.
This is particularly visible when using the new FQ packet scheduler
with MQ + FQ setup on the slaves.
We can safely revert the first commit now that 416186fbf8c5b
("net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_tx")
properly caps the queue_index.

This reverts commit 1f324e38870cc09659cf23bc626f1b8869e201f2.
It seems to cause regressions, and in particular the output path
really depends upon there being a socket attached to skb->sk for
checks such as sk_mc_loop(skb->sk) for example. See ip6_output_finish2().

Since commit 3d7b46cd20e3 (ip_tunnel: push generic protocol handling to
ip_tunnel module.), an Oops is triggered when an xfrm policy is configured on
an IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel.
xfrm4_policy_check() calls __xfrm_policy_check2(), which uses skb_dst(skb). But
this field is NULL because iptunnel_pull_header() calls skb_dst_drop(skb).

Should a connect fail, if the publication/server is unavailable or
due to some other error, a positive value will be returned and errno
is never set. If the application code checks for an explicit zero
return from connect (success) or a negative return (failure), it
will not catch the error and subsequent send() calls will fail as
shown from the strace snippet below.
socket(0x1e /* PF_??? */, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0) = 3
connect(3, {sa_family=0x1e /* AF_??? */, sa_data="\2\1\322\4\0\0\322\4\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16) = 111
sendto(3, "test", 4, 0, NULL, 0) = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe)
The reason for this behaviour is that TIPC wrongly inverts error
codes set in sk_err.

In commit 90ba9b19 (tcp: tcp_make_synack() can use alloc_skb()), Eric changed
the call to sock_wmalloc in tcp_make_synack to alloc_skb. In doing so,
the netfilter owner match lost its ability to block the SYNACK packet on
outbound listening sockets. Revert the change, restoring the owner match
functionality.
This closes netfilter bugzilla #847.

Currently we would still potentially suffer multicast packet loss if there
is just either an IGMP or an MLD querier: For the former case, we would
possibly drop IPv6 multicast packets, for the latter IPv4 ones. This is
because we are currently assuming that if either an IGMP or MLD querier
is present that the other one is present, too.
This patch makes the behaviour and fix added in
"bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af3b04)
to also work if there is either just an IGMP or an MLD querier on the
link: It refines the deactivation of the snooping to be protocol
specific by using separate timers for the snooped IGMP and MLD queries
as well as separate timers for our internal IGMP and MLD queriers.

Allocating skbs when sending out neighbour discovery messages
currently uses sock_alloc_send_skb() based on a per net namespace
socket and thus share a socket wmem buffer space.
If a netdevice is temporarily unable to transmit due to carrier
loss or for other reasons, the queued up ndisc messages will cosnume
all of the wmem space and will thus prevent from any more skbs to
be allocated even for netdevices that are able to transmit packets.
The number of neighbour discovery messages sent is very limited,
simply use alloc_skb() and don't depend on any socket wmem space any
longer.
This patch has orginally been posted by Eric Dumazet in a modified

ipv4: raw_sendmsg: don't use header's destination address
A sendto() regression was bisected and found to start with commit
f8126f1d5136be1 (ipv4: Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway.)
The problem is that it tries to ARP-lookup the constructed packet's
destination address rather than the explicitly provided address.
Fix this using FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH so that given nexthop is used.

The zero value means that tsecr is not valid, so it's a special case.
tsoffset is used to customize tcp_time_stamp for one socket.
tsoffset is usually zero, it's used when a socket was moved from one
host to another host.
Currently this issue affects logic of tcp_rcv_rtt_measure_ts. Due to
incorrect value of rcv_tsecr, tcp_rcv_rtt_measure_ts sets rto to
TCP_RTO_MAX.

u32 rcv_tstamp; /* timestamp of last received ACK */
Its value used in tcp_retransmit_timer, which closes socket
if the last ack was received more then TCP_RTO_MAX ago.
Currently rcv_tstamp is initialized to zero and if tcp_retransmit_timer
is called before receiving a first ack, the connection is closed.
This patch initializes rcv_tstamp to a timestamp, when a socket was
restored.

the series of patches for irqdomain core in 3.11 has broken sirf
irq which uses legacy mapping. all users fail in the new kernel
while setupping irq.
this patch moves to linear irqdomain and drop old legacy irqdomain
codes since we don't need it any more, and at the same time, it
also fixes the broken interrupts of sirfsoc in 3.11.
on the other hand, we actually only have 64 interrupt sources for
prima2 and atlas6, but there are 128 interrupt souces for marco
which uses GIC. in the legacy codes, sirf gpio also uses legacy
irqdomain, so to make gpio interrupt mapping not depend on the
prima2/atlas6/marco an use unified marco,we enlarge prima2/atlas6
interrupt number to 128. here we don't need this workaround any
more as sirf gpio also moved to linear mode before. so we move
SIRFSOC_NUM_IRQS back to 64 too.

On 3.11-rc we are seeing cgroup directories left behind when they should
have been removed. Here's a trivial reproducer:
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
mkdir parent parent/child; rmdir parent/child parent
rmdir: failed to remove `parent': Device or resource busy
It's because cgroup_destroy_locked() (step 1 of destruction) leaves
cgroup on parent's children list, letting cgroup_offline_fn() (step 2 of
destruction) remove it; but step 2 is run by work queue, which may not
yet have removed the children when parent destruction checks the list.
Fix that by checking through a non-empty list of children: if every one
of them has already been marked CGRP_DEAD, then it's safe to proceed:
those children are invisible to userspace, and should not obstruct rmdir.
(I didn't see any reason to keep the cgrp->children checks under the
unrelated css_set_lock, so moved them out.)
tj: Flattened nested ifs a bit and updated comment so that it's
correct on both for-3.11-fixes and for-3.12.

If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU.
This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is
waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine. Such
self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging
the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for
that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from
happening on all other CPUs. The two would deadlock.
Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around
scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one
port may exclude command processing from other ports. With the right
timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying
to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has
an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to
stop_machine.
Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.

If the system had a few memory groups and all of them were destroyed,
memcg_limited_groups_array_size has non-zero value, but all new caches
are created without memcg_params, because memcg_kmem_enabled() returns
false.
We try to enumirate child caches in a few places and all of them are
potentially dangerous.
For example my kernel is compiled with CONFIG_SLAB and it crashed when I
tryed to mount a NFS share after a few experiments with kmemcg.

"cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/removable" crashed the system.
The problem is that show_mem_removable() is passing a
bad pfn to is_mem_section_removable(), which causes
if (!node_online(page_to_nid(page)))
to blow up. Why is it passing in a bad pfn?
The reason is that show_mem_removable() will loop sections_per_block
times. sections_per_block is 16, but mem->section_count is 8,
indicating holes in this memory block. Checking that the memory section
is present before checking to see if the memory section is removable
fixes the problem.

According to 'man msgrcv': "If msgtyp is less than 0, the first message of
the lowest type that is less than or equal to the absolute value of msgtyp
shall be received."
Bug: The kernel only returns a message if its type is 1; other messages
with type < abs(msgtype) will never get returned.
Fix: After having traversed the list to find the first message with the
lowest type, we need to actually return that message.
This regression was introduced by commit daaf74cf0867 ("ipc: refactor
msg list search into separate function")

Correct an issue with /proc/timer_list reported by Holger.
When reading from the proc file with a sufficiently small buffer, 2k so
not really that small, there was one could get hung trying to read the
file a chunk at a time.
The timer_list_start function failed to account for the possibility that
the offset was adjusted outside the timer_list_next.

This just replaces the dentry count/lock combination with the lockref
structure that contains both a count and a spinlock, and does the
mechanical conversion to use the lockref infrastructure.
There are no semantic changes here, it's purely syntactic. The
reference lockref implementation uses the spinlock exactly the same way
that the old dcache code did, and the bulk of this patch is just
expanding the internal "d_count" use in the dcache code to use
"d_lockref.count" instead.
This is purely preparation for the real change to make the reference
count updates be lockless during the 3.12 merge window.
[ As with the previous commit, this is a rewritten version of a concept
originally from Waiman, so credit goes to him, blame for any errors
goes to me.
Waiman's patch had some semantic differences for taking advantage of
the lockless update in dget_parent(), while this patch is
intentionally a pure search-and-replace change with no semantic
changes. - Linus ]
