userspace configuration API")causing no automatic merge conflict, but Eric Paris pointed out the
issue. -

rds_iw_flush_goal() just returns a count, but it is only called in one

Adds an optional Random Early Detection on each SFQ flow queue.
Traditional SFQ limits count of packets, while RED permits to also
control number of bytes per flow, and adds ECN capability as well.1) We dont handle the idle time management in this RED implementation,
since each 'new flow' begins with a null qavg. We really want to address
backlogged flows.2) if headdrop is selected, we try to ecn mark first packet instead of
currently enqueued packet. This gives faster feedback for tcp flows
compared to traditional RED [ marking the last packet in queue ]Example of use :

The logic of the current code is that whenever we destroy
a cgroup that had its limit set (set meaning different than
maximum), we should decrement the jump_label counter.
Otherwise we assume it was never incremented.But what the code actually does is test for RES_USAGE
instead of RES_LIMIT. Usage being different than maximum
is likely to be true most of the time.The effect of this is that the key must become negative,
and since the jump_label test says:!!atomic_read(&key->enabled);
we'll have jump_labels still on when no one else is
using this functionality.Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa

commit a9b3cd7f32 (rcu: convert uses of rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) to
RCU_INIT_POINTER) did a lot of incorrect changes, since it did a
complete conversion of rcu_assign_pointer(x, y) to RCU_INIT_POINTER(x,
y).We miss needed barriers, even on x86, when y is not NULL.

commit 816c04fe7ef01dd9649f5ccfe796474db8708be5
Author: Christian Lamparter
Date: Sat Apr 30 15:24:30 2011 +0200mac80211: consolidate MIC failure report handling
is possible to that we dereference rx->key == NULL when driver set
RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED and not RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED and we are in
promiscuous mode. This happen with rt73usb and rt61pci at least.Before the commit we always check rx->key against NULL, so I assume
fix should be done in mac80211 (also mic_fail path has similar check).References:

My patch to validate station flags broke compatibility
with the old station flags setting where all flags are
always set at once since it always set the mask as all
possible flags which ended up being rejected later in
the station add/modify code.Fix by parsing only the current flags in the old flags
attribute -- new applications and new flags should use
(and will now require) the new flags attribute where
the mask is given by the application.Reported-and-tested-by: Thomas Hilber

In 882716604ec "pktgen: fix multiple queue warning" we added special
logic to handle the case where ntxq is zero. It's not clear to me that
ntxq can actually be zero. But if it were then we would set
->queue_map_min and ->queue_map_max to USHRT_MAX when probably we want
to set them to zero?Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Sockets can also be created through sock_clone. Because it copies
all data in the sock structure, it also copies the memcg-related pointer,
and all should be fine. However, since we now use reference counts in
socket creation, we are left with some sockets that have no reference
counts. It matters when we destroy them, since it leads to a mismatch.Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa

Once upon a time netlink was not sync and we had to get the effective
capabilities from the skb that was being received. Today we instead get
the capabilities from the current task. This has rendered the entire
purpose of the hook moot as it is now functionally equivalent to the
capable() call.Signed-off-by: Eric Paris

We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users
(see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add
yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code
translation.ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode
from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as
EINVAL ("Invalid argument"). It should be translated as ENOTTY
("Inappropriate ioctl for device").That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the
block layer actually checks for it, which is sad. We continue to do so
for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should
remove it entirely eventually. In the meantime, this tries to keep the
changes localized to just the EINVAL -> ENOTTY fix, and removing code
that makes it harder to do the right thing.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

This was unexpected behavior (at least for me)--why would you want
configuration settings automatically lost on nfsd restart?In practice this won't affect distributions, which likely set everything

The pool_to and to_pool fields of the global svc_pool_map are freed on
shutdown, but are initialized in nfsd startup only in the
SVC_POOL_PERCPU and SVC_POOL_PERNODE cases.They *are* initialized to zero on kernel startup. So as long as you use
only SVC_POOL_GLOBAL (the default), this will never be a problem.You're also OK if you only ever use SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE.
However, the following sequence events leads to a double-free:
1. set SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE
2. start nfsd: both fields are initialized.
3. shutdown nfsd: both fields are freed.
4. set SVC_POOL_GLOBAL
5. start nfsd: the fields are left untouched.
6. shutdown nfsd: now we try to free them again.Step 4 is actually unnecessary, since (for some bizarre reason), nfsd
automatically resets the pool mode to SVC_POOL_GLOBAL on shutdown.Cc: stable@kernel.org

This patch splits the red_parms structure into two components.
One holding the RED 'constant' parameters, and one containing the
variables.This permits a size reduction of GRED qdisc, and is a preliminary step

SFQ as implemented in Linux is very limited, with at most 127 flows
and limit of 127 packets. [ So if 127 flows are active, we have one
packet per flow ]This patch brings to SFQ following features to cope with modern needs.
- Ability to specify a smaller per flow limit of inflight packets.
(default value being at 127 packets)- Ability to have up to 65408 active flows (instead of 127)
- Ability to have head drops instead of tail drops
(to drop old packets from a flow)Example of use : No more than 20 packets per flow, max 8000 flows, max
20000 packets in SFQ qdisc, hash table of 65536 slots.tc qdisc add ... sfq \
flows 8000 \
depth 20 \
headdrop \
limit 20000 \
divisor 65536Ram usage :
2 bytes per hash table entry (instead of previous 1 byte/entry)
32 bytes per flow on 64bit arches, instead of 384 for QFQ, so much
better cache hit ratio.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet
