"Changes include additional instruction emulation, page-crossing MMIO,
faster dirty logging, preventing the watchdog from killing a stopped

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat

Pull cleanup from Paul Gortmaker:
"The changes shown here are to unify linux's BUG support under the one
file. Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code
in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in
linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in
kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h
was including to pseudo link them.This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here
is an example that violates the principle of least surprise:CC lib/string.o
lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat':
lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON'
make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1
$
$ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c
#include
$We've included for the BUG infrastructure and yet we
still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh -
very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development.With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are:
1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the
implicit presence of BUG code.
2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence
relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code.
3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to
4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain.During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But
to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build
failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem
areas in advance.[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/3/90

If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any
other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then
that header really should be including and not just
expecting it to be implicitly present.We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these
headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have
been causing compile failures/warnings.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

This one specifies where to start MSG_PEEK-ing queue data from. When
set to negative value means that MSG_PEEK works as ususally -- peeks
from the head of the queue always.When some bytes are peeked from queue and the peeking offset is non
negative it is moved forward so that the next peek will return next
portion of data.When non-peeking recvmsg occurs and the peeking offset is non negative
is is moved backward so that the next peek will still peek the proper
data (i.e. the one that would have been picked if there were no non
peeking recv in between).The offset is set using per-proto opteration to let the protocol handle
the locking issues and to check whether the peeking offset feature is
supported by the protocol the socket belongs to.Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov

The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires
knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer.
Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even
transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but
injecting it with radiotap and getting the status
out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather
complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and
doesn't work with all hardware.To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX
status option for data frame transmissions.This works similar to the existing TX timestamping
in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's
error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has
an int indicating ACK status (0/1).Since it is possible that at some point we will
want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a
single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not
doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING
to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more
than just the timestamp; keep the old constant
as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs
don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard
to split them up in a way that makes it possible.Thanks to Neil Horman for helping me figure out
the functions that add the control messages.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

unconditionally).Compile tested on i386 and x86_64 with allnoconfig.

This patch moves the in-tree architectures that were using the 'generic'
delay.h over to using the header file in asm-generic.This is not done using the generic-y mechanism as none of these arch's
have started using that mechanism yet. This is a trivial change to make
later when the arch begins using generic-y.Note the subtle change to the avr32 and SH architectures where the argument
to __const_udelay was previously using the rounded down constant value
instead of the rounded up value.Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn

* setns:
ns: Wire up the setns system callDone as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
addition of sendmmsg system call -
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano

#endifand in the architectures, write

little-endian bitmapsIn order to move minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h to architecture
independent code in minix filesystem, this provides two config options.CONFIG_MINIX_FS_BIG_ENDIAN_16BIT_INDEXED is only selected by m68k.
CONFIG_MINIX_FS_NATIVE_ENDIAN is selected by the architectures which use
native byte order bitmaps (h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu,
m32r, mips, sh, xtensa). The architectures which always use little-endian
bitmaps do not select these options.Finally, we can remove minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h for all
architectures.Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita

As the result of conversions, there are no users of ext2 non-atomic bit
operations except for ext2 filesystem itself. Now we can put them into
architecture independent code in ext2 filesystem, and remove from
asm/bitops.h for all architectures.Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita

Introduce little-endian bit operations to the big-endian architectures
which do not have native little-endian bit operations and the
little-endian architectures. (alpha, avr32, blackfin, cris, frv, h8300,
ia64, m32r, mips, mn10300, parisc, sh, sparc, tile, x86, xtensa)These architectures can just include generic implementation
(asm-generic/bitops/le.h).Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita

This patch adds the linux/mm.h header file to the AVR32 arch pgalloc.c
implementation to fix the undefined reference to pgtable_page_ctor() and
pgtable_page_dtor().Signed-off-by: Hans-Christian Egtvedt

This patch will fix the arguments to the architecture sys_clone() function to
match the asm-generic/syscalls.h prototype. In the same go remove the
architecture specific prototype for the same function.The sys_clone() function is only called from assembly, hence the argument types
were not having any affect.Signed-off-by: Hans-Christian Egtvedt

This patch removes the redundant syscalls prototypes in the architecture
specific syscalls.h header file. These were identical with the ones in
asm-generic/syscalls.h.Signed-off-by: Hans-Christian Egtvedt
