"make vdso_install" installs unstripped versions of the vdso objects
for the benefit of the debugger. This was broken by checkin:6f121e548f83 x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time C
The filenames are different now, so update the Makefile to cope.
This still installs the 64-bit vdso as vdso64.so. We believe this
will be okay, as the only known user is a patched gdb which is known
to use build-ids, but if it turns out to be a problem we may have to
add a link.Inspired by a patch from Sam Ravnborg.

The Go runtime has a buggy vDSO parser that currently segfaults.
This writes an empty SHT_DYNSYM entry that causes Go's runtime to
malfunction by thinking that the vDSO is empty rather than
malfunctioning by running off the end and segfaulting.This affects x86-64 only as far as we know, so we do not need this for
the i386 and x32 vdsos.Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski

One final use of the macros from which are not available on
older system. In this case we had one sole case of *writing* a
littleendian number, but the number is SHN_UNDEF which is the constant
zero, so rather than dealing with the general case of littleendian
puts here, just document that the constant is zero and be done with
it.Reported-and-Tested-by: Andrew Morton

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
"The largest piece is a long-overdue rewrite of the xdr code to remove
some annoying limitations: for example, there was no way to return
ACLs larger than 4K, and readdir results were returned only in 4k
chunks, limiting performance on large directories.Also:
- part of Neil Brown's work to make NFS work reliably over the
loopback interface (so client and server can run on the same
machine without deadlocks). The rest of it is coming through
other trees.
- cleanup and bugfixes for some of the server RDMA code, from
Steve Wise.
- Various cleanup of NFSv4 state code in preparation for an
overhaul of the locking, from Jeff, Trond, and Benny.
- smaller bugfixes and cleanup from Christoph Hellwig and
Kinglong Mee.Thanks to everyone!

This patch adds iWARP Port Mapper (IWPM) Version 2 support. The iWARP
Port Mapper implementation is based on the port mapper specification
section in the Sockets Direct Protocol paper -
http://www.rdmaconsortium.org/home/draft-pinkerton-iwarp-sdp-v1.0.pdfExisting iWARP RDMA providers use the same IP address as the native
TCP/IP stack when creating RDMA connections. They need a mechanism to
claim the TCP ports used for RDMA connections to prevent TCP port
collisions when other host applications use TCP ports. The iWARP Port
Mapper provides a standard mechanism to accomplish this. Without this
service it is possible for RDMA application to bind/listen on the same
port which is already being used by native TCP host application. If
that happens the incoming TCP connection data can be passed to the
RDMA stack with error.The iWARP Port Mapper solution doesn't contain any changes to the
existing network stack in the kernel space. All the changes are
contained with the infiniband tree and also in user space.The iWARP Port Mapper service is implemented as a user space daemon
process. Source for the IWPM service is located at
http://git.openfabrics.org/git?p=~tnikolova/libiwpm-1.0.0/.git;a=summaryThe iWARP driver (port mapper client) sends to the IWPM service the
local IP address and TCP port it has received from the RDMA
application, when starting a connection. The IWPM service performs a
socket bind from user space to get an available TCP port, called a
mapped port, and communicates it back to the client. In that sense,
the IWPM service is used to map the TCP port, which the RDMA
application uses to any port available from the host TCP port
space. The mapped ports are used in iWARP RDMA connections to avoid
collisions with native TCP stack which is aware that these ports are
taken. When an RDMA connection using a mapped port is terminated, the
client notifies the IWPM service, which then releases the TCP port.The message exchange between the IWPM service and the iWARP drivers
(between user space and kernel space) is implemented using netlink
sockets.1) Netlink interface functions are added: ibnl_unicast() and
ibnl_mulitcast() for sending netlink messages to user space2) The signature of the existing ibnl_put_msg() is changed to be more
generic3) Two netlink clients are added: RDMA_NL_NES, RDMA_NL_C4IW
corresponding to the two iWarp drivers - nes and cxgb4 which use
the IWPM service4) Enums are added to enumerate the attributes in the netlink
messages, which are exchanged between the user space IWPM service
and the iWARP driversSigned-off-by: Tatyana Nikolova

There are two kzalloc() calls which were not converted to use value of
gfp passed to create_qp_common() instead of using hardcoded GFP_KERNEL
in 40f2287bd583 ("IB/mlx4: Implement IB_QP_CREATE_USE_GFP_NOIO"). Fix
this by passing gfp value down properly.Reported-by: Dan Carpenter

This function is supposed to return true if the new load imbalance is
worse than the old one. It didn't. I can only hope brown paper bags
are in style.Now things converge much better on both the 4 node and 8 node systems.
I am not sure why this did not seem to impact specjbb performance on the
4 node system, which is the system I have full-time access to.This bug was introduced recently, with commit e63da03639cc ("sched/numa:
Allow task switch if load imbalance improves")Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel

shrink_inactive_list() used to wait 0.1s to avoid congestion when all
the pages that were isolated from the inactive list were dirty but not
under active writeback. That makes no real sense, and apparently causes
major interactivity issues under some loads since 3.11.The ostensible reason for it was to wait for kswapd to start writing
pages, but that seems questionable as well, since the congestion wait
code seems to trigger for kswapd itself as well. Also, the logic behind
delaying anything when we haven't actually started writeback is not
clear - it only delays actually starting that writeback.We'll still trigger the congestion waiting if
(a) the process is kswapd, and we hit pages flagged for immediate
reclaim(b) the process is not kswapd, and the zone backing dev writeback is
actually congested.This probably needs to be revisited, but as it is this fixes a reported
regression.Reported-by: Felipe Contreras
