      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      RDMA/cm: fix loopback address support · 6f8372b6
      Sean Hefty 提交于
      The RDMA CM is intended to support the use of a loopback address
      when establishing a connection; however, the behavior of the CM
      when loopback addresses are used is confusing and does not always
      work, depending on whether loopback was specified by the server,
      the client, or both.
      
      The defined behavior of rdma_bind_addr is to associate an RDMA
      device with an rdma_cm_id, as long as the user specified a non-
      zero address.  (ie they weren't just trying to reserve a port)
      Currently, if the loopback address is passed to rdam_bind_addr,
      no device is associated with the rdma_cm_id.  Fix this.
      
      If a loopback address is specified by the client as the destination
      address for a connection, it will fail to establish a connection.
      This is true even if the server is listing across all addresses or
      on the loopback address itself.  The issue is that the server tries
      to translate the IP address carried in the REQ message to a local
      net_device address, which fails.  The translation is not needed in
      this case, since the REQ carries the actual HW address that should
      be used.
      
      Finally, cleanup loopback support to be more transport neutral.
      Replace separate calls to get/set the sgid and dgid from the
      device address to a single call that behaves correctly depending
      on the format of the device address.  And support both IPv4 and
      IPv6 address formats.

      sysctl net: Remove unused binary sysctl code · f8572d8f
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Now that sys_sysctl is a compatiblity wrapper around /proc/sys
      all sysctl strategy routines, and all ctl_name and strategy
      entries in the sysctl tables are unused, and can be
      revmoed.
      
      In addition neigh_sysctl_register has been modified to no longer
      take a strategy argument and it's callers have been modified not
      to pass one.

      inet: rename some inet_sock fields · c720c7e8
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones
      for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch.
      
      Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first
      read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt
      to a separate cache line (only written by rx path)
      
      This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr,
      sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these
      fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes.

      percpu: use DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() · b9bf3121
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      There are a few places where ___cacheline_aligned* is used with
      DEFINE_PER_CPU().  Use DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() instead.
      
      DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() applies alignment only on SMPs.  While
      all other converted places used _in_smp variant or only get compiled
      for SMP, net/rds used unconditional ____cacheline_aligned.  I don't
      see any reason these data structures should be aligned on UP and thus
      converted together.

      FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU() · 9b8de747
      David Howells 提交于
      In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
      does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
      architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
      register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
      where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.
      
      On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
      the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
      up the following errors:
      
      kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
      kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
      kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
      
      To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
      as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
      virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
      be matched by variants on DECLARE.
