      ====================
      This is another flurry of fixes intended for the 3.9 stream...
      
      A mac80211 pull from Johannes:
      
      "Seth fixes a stupid bug I introduced into one of his earlier patches,
      Chun-Yeow fixes mesh forwarding and Felix fixes monitor mode. I myself
      fixed a small locking issue and, the biggest change here, removed some
      nl80211 information with which sometimes the per wiphy information was
      getting too large for the typical 4k-minus-overhead. In my -next tree I
      have a patch to allow splitting that and add back the information
      removed now."
      
      An iwlwifi pull from Johannes:
      
      "I have a fix for a pretty important bug regarding DMA mapping, that
      could cause the DMA engine to overwrite data we wanted to send to it, so
      that the next time we send it it would be bad. This particularly affects
      calibration results. Other than that, three little fixes for the MVM
      driver."
      
      But wait, there's more!
      
      Avinash Patil fixes an incorrectly timed delay in mwifiex.
      
      Bing Zhao prevents a crash in SD8688 caused by failing to properly
      set a flag before issuing a command.
      
      Felix Fietkau is the big here this time, providing a trio of minor
      ath9k fixes and correcting the advertised interface combinations for
      rt2x00 when mesh support is disabled.
      
      Finally, Hauke Mehrtens gives us a patch that correctlin initializes
      a spin lock in the bcma code.
      
      Please let me know if there are problems!

      l2tp: Restore socket refcount when sendmsg succeeds · 8b82547e
      Guillaume Nault 提交于
      The sendmsg() syscall handler for PPPoL2TP doesn't decrease the socket
      reference counter after successful transmissions. Any successful
      sendmsg() call from userspace will then increase the reference counter
      forever, thus preventing the kernel's session and tunnel data from
      being freed later on.
      
      The problem only happens when writing directly on L2TP sockets.
      PPP sockets attached to L2TP are unaffected as the PPP subsystem
      uses pppol2tp_xmit() which symmetrically increase/decrease reference
      counters.
      
      This patch adds the missing call to sock_put() before returning from
      pppol2tp_sendmsg().

      phy: Fix phy_device_free memory leak · b2a43191
      Petr Malat 提交于
      Fix memory leak in phy_device_free() for the case when phy_device*
      returned by phy_device_create() is not registered in the system.
      
      Bug description:
      phy_device_create() sets name of kobject using dev_set_name(), which
      allocates memory using kvasprintf(), but this memory isn't freed if
      the underlying device isn't registered properly, because kobject_cleanup()
      is not called in that case. This can happen (and actually is happening on
      our machines) if phy_device_register(), called by mdiobus_scan(), fails.
      
      Patch description:
      Embedded struct device is initialized in phy_device_create() and it
      counterpart phy_device_free() just drops one reference to the device,
      which leads to proper deinitialization including releasing the kobject
      name memory.

      tcp: avoid wakeups for pure ACK · 79ffef1f
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      TCP prequeue mechanism purpose is to let incoming packets
      being processed by the thread currently blocked in tcp_recvmsg(),
      instead of behalf of the softirq handler, to better adapt flow
      control on receiver host capacity to schedule the consumer.
      
      But in typical request/answer workloads, we send request, then
      block to receive the answer. And before the actual answer, TCP
      stack receives the ACK packets acknowledging the request.
      
      Processing pure ACK on behalf of the thread blocked in tcp_recvmsg()
      is a waste of resources, as thread has to immediately sleep again
      because it got no payload.
      
      This patch avoids the extra context switches and scheduler overhead.

      ====================
      This series of patches resolves several SCTP association hangs observed during
      SCTP stress testing.  Observable symptoms include communications hangs with
      data being held in the association reassembly and/or lobby (ordering) queues.
      Close examination of reassembly/ordering queues may show either duplicated
      or missing packets.
      
      In version #2, corrected build failure in initial version of patch series
      due to wrong calling sequence for sctp_ulpq_partial_delivery() being inserted
      in sctp_ulpq_renege().
      
      In version #3, adjusted patch documentation to be less repetitive.

      sctp: fix association hangs due to partial delivery errors · d003b41b
      Lee A. Roberts 提交于
      In sctp_ulpq_tail_data(), use return values 0,1 to indicate whether
      a complete event (with MSG_EOR set) was delivered.  A return value
      of -ENOMEM continues to indicate an out-of-memory condition was
      encountered.
      
      In sctp_ulpq_retrieve_partial() and sctp_ulpq_retrieve_first(),
      correct message reassembly logic for SCTP partial delivery.
      Change logic to ensure that as much data as possible is sent
      with the initial partial delivery and that following partial
      deliveries contain all available data.
      
      In sctp_ulpq_partial_delivery(), attempt partial delivery only
      if the data on the head of the reassembly queue is at or before
      the cumulative TSN ACK point.
      
      In sctp_ulpq_renege(), use the modified return values from
      sctp_ulpq_tail_data() to choose whether to attempt partial
      delivery or to attempt to drain the reassembly queue as a
      means to reduce memory pressure.  Remove call to
      sctp_tsnmap_mark(), as this is handled correctly in call to
      sctp_ulpq_tail_data().
