struct ethtool_rxnfc was originally defined in 2.6.27 for the ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH command with only the cmd, flow_type and data fields. It was then extended in 2.6.30 to support various additional commands. These commands should have been defined to use a new structure, but it is too late to change that now. Since user-space may still be using the old structure definition for the ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH commands, and since they do not need the additional fields, only copy the originally defined fields to and from user-space.

Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and is not one of the special pkts tested for in skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: NJohn Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Introduce a new truncate calling sequence into fs/mm subsystems. Rather than setattr > vmtruncate > truncate, have filesystems call their truncate sequence from ->setattr if filesystem specific operations are required. vmtruncate is deprecated, and truncate_pagecache and inode_newsize_ok helpers introduced previously should be used. simple_setattr is introduced for simple in-ram filesystems to implement the new truncate sequence. Eventually all filesystems should be converted to implement a setattr, and the default code in notify_change should go away. simple_setsize is also introduced to perform just the ATTR_SIZE portion of simple_setattr (ie. changing i_size and trimming pagecache). To implement the new truncate sequence: - filesystem specific manipulations (eg freeing blocks) must be done in the setattr method rather than ->truncate. - vmtruncate can not be used by core code to trim blocks past i_size in the event of write failure after allocation, so this must be performed in the fs code. - convert usage of helpers block_write_begin, nobh_write_begin, cont_write_begin, and *blockdev_direct_IO* to use _newtrunc postfixed variants. These avoid calling vmtruncate to trim blocks (see previous). - inode_setattr should not be used. generic_setattr is a new function to be used to copy simple attributes into the generic inode. - make use of the better opportunity to handle errors with the new sequence. Big problem with the previous calling sequence: the filesystem is not called until i_size has already changed. This means it is not allowed to fail the call, and also it does not know what the previous i_size was. Also, generic code calling vmtruncate to truncate allocated blocks in case of error had no good way to return a meaningful error (or, for example, atomically handle block deallocation).

We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently. The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with, the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync which can lead to some confusion. This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious what to expect. In addition add some documentation for both methods. Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

__aio_put_req() plays sick games with file refcount. What it wants is fput() from atomic context; it's almost always done with f_count > 1, so they only have to deal with delayed work in rare cases when their reference happens to be the last one. Current code decrements f_count and if it hasn't hit 0, everything is fine. Otherwise it keeps a pointer to struct file (with zero f_count!) around and has delayed work do __fput() on it. Better way to do it: use atomic_long_add_unless( , -1, 1) instead of !atomic_long_dec_and_test(). IOW, decrement it only if it's not the last reference, leave refcount alone if it was. And use normal fput() in delayed work. I've made that atomic_long_add_unless call a new helper - fput_atomic(). Drops a reference to file if it's safe to do in atomic (i.e. if that's not the last one), tells if it had been able to do that. aio.c converted to it, __fput() use is gone. req->ki_file *always* contributes to refcount now. And __fput() became static. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

In this way the interface is moved from the implementation and the sub functionality drivers can keep their interface intact when chip infrastructure and communication mechanisms changes.

The charger interrupts on the WM831x are unconditionally a wake source for the system. If the power driver is not able to monitor them (for example, due to the IRQ line not having been wired up on the system) then any charger interrupt will prevent the system suspending for any meaningful amount of time since nothing will ack them. Avoid this issue by manually acknowledging these interrupts when we suspend the WM831x core device if they are masked. If software is actually using the interrupts then they will be unmasked and this change will have no effect.

Archs can override definitions of: numa_mem_id() - returns node number of "local memory" node set_numa_mem() - initialize [this cpus'] per cpu variable 'numa_mem' cpu_to_mem() - return numa_mem for specified cpu; may be used as lvalue Generic initialization of 'numa_mem' occurs in __build_all_zonelists(). This will initialize the boot cpu at boot time, and all cpus on change of numa_zonelist_order, or when node or memory hot-plug requires zonelist rebuild. Archs that support memoryless nodes will need to initialize 'numa_mem' for secondary cpus as they're brought on-line.

Rework the generic version of the numa_node_id() function to use the new generic percpu variable infrastructure. Guard the new implementation with a new config option: CONFIG_USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID. Archs which support this new implemention will default this option to 'y' when NUMA is configured. This config option could be removed if/when all archs switch over to the generic percpu implementation of numa_node_id(). Arch support involves: 1) converting any existing per cpu variable implementations to use this implementation. x86_64 is an instance of such an arch. 2) archs that don't use a per cpu variable for numa_node_id() will need to initialize the new per cpu variable "numa_node" as cpus are brought on-line. ia64 is an example. 3) Defining USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID in arch dependent Kconfig--e.g., when NUMA is configured. This is required because I have retained the old implementation by default to allow archs to be modified incrementally, as desired. Subsequent patches will convert x86_64 and ia64 to use this implemenation.

The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to 64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or EFAULT as the result of the I/O. This patch passes a compat flag to io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb array. A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev. I have also updated the libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success. Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32 on my 64bit system). All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be welcome.

This patch moves the definition of struct rnd_state and the inline __seed() function to linux/random.h. It renames the static __random32() function to prandom32() and exports it for use in modules. prandom32() is useful as a privately-seeded pseudo random number generator that can give the same result every time it is initialized. For FCoE FC-BB-6 VN2VN mode self-selected unique FC address generation, we need an pseudo-random number generator seeded with the 64-bit world-wide port name. A truly random generator or one seeded with randomness won't do because the same sequence of numbers should be generated each time we boot or the link comes up. A prandom32_seed() inline function is added to the header file. It is inlined not for speed, but so the function won't be expanded in the base kernel, but only in the module that uses it.

Cosmetic, no changes in the compiled code. Just s/NULL/SIG_DFL/ to make it more readable and grep-friendly. Note: probably SIG_IGN makes more sense, we could kill ignore_signals(). But then kernel_init() should do flush_signal_handlers() before exec().

"statically initialize struct pid for swapper" commit 820e45db says: Statically initialize a struct pid for the swapper process (pid_t == 0) and attach it to init_task. This is needed so task_pid(), task_pgrp() and task_session() interfaces work on the swapper process also. OK, but: - it doesn't make sense to add init_task.pids[].node into init_struct_pid.tasks[], and in fact this just wrong. idle threads are special, they shouldn't be visible on any global list. In particular do_each_pid_task(init_struct_pid) shouldn't see swapper. This is the actual reason why kill(0, SIGKILL) from /sbin/init (which starts with 0,0 special pids) crashes the kernel. The signal sent to pgid/sid == 0 must never see idle threads, even if the previous patch fixed the crash itself. - we have other idle threads running on the non-boot CPUs, see the next patch. Change INIT_STRUCT_PID/INIT_PID_LINK to create the empty/unhashed hlist_head/hlist_node. Like any other idle thread swapper can never exit, so detach_pid()->__hlist_del() is not possible, but we could change INIT_PID_LINK() to set pprev = &next if needed. All we need is the valid swapper->pids[].pid == &init_struct_pid.

The trivial /sbin/init doing int main(void) { kill(0, SIGKILL) } crashes the kernel. This happens because __kill_pgrp_info(init_struct_pid) also sends SIGKILL to the swapper process which runs with the uninitialized ->thread_group. Change INIT_TASK() to initialize ->thread_group properly. Note: the real problem is that the swapper process must not be visible to signals, see the next patch. But this change is right anyway and fixes the crash.
