Pull networking update from David Miller: 1) Checkpoint/restarted TCP sockets now can properly propagate the TCP timestamp offset. From Andrey Vagin. 2) VMWARE VM VSOCK layer, from Andy King. 3) Much improved support for virtual functions and SR-IOV in bnx2x, from Ariel ELior. 4) All protocols on ipv4 and ipv6 are now network namespace aware, and all the compatability checks for initial-namespace-only protocols is removed. Thanks to Tom Parkin for helping deal with the last major holdout, L2TP. 5) IPV6 support in netpoll and network namespace support in pktgen, from Cong Wang. 6) Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP) and Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol (MVRP) support, from David Ward. 7) Compute packet lengths more accurately in the packet scheduler, from Eric Dumazet. 8) Use per-task page fragment allocator in skb_append_datato_frags(), also from Eric Dumazet. 9) Add support for connection tracking labels in netfilter, from Florian Westphal. 10) Fix default multicast group joining on ipv6, and add anti-spoofing checks to 6to4 and 6rd. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 11) Make ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation memory limits more reasonable in modern times, rearrange inet frag datastructures for better cacheline locality, and move more operations outside of locking. From Jesper Dangaard Brouer. 12) Instead of strict master <--> slave relationships, allow arbitrary scenerios with "upper device lists". From Jiri Pirko. 13) Improve rate limiting accuracy in TBF and act_police, also from Jiri Pirko. 14) Add a BPF filter netfilter match target, from Willem de Bruijn. 15) Orphan and delete a bunch of pre-historic networking drivers from Paul Gortmaker. 16) Add TSO support for GRE tunnels, from Pravin B SHelar. Although this still needs some minor bug fixing before it's %100 correct in all cases. 17) Handle unresolved IPSEC states like ARP, with a resolution packet queue. From Steffen Klassert. 18) Remove TCP Appropriate Byte Count support (ABC), from Stephen Hemminger. This was long overdue. 19) Support SO_REUSEPORT, from Tom Herbert. 20) Allow locking a socket BPF filter, so that it cannot change after a process drops capabilities. 21) Add VLAN filtering to bridge, from Vlad Yasevich. 22) Bring ipv6 on-par with ipv4 and do not cache neighbour entries in the ipv6 routes, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1538 commits) ipv6: fix race condition regarding dst->expires and dst->from. net: fix a wrong assignment in skb_split() ip_gre: remove an extra dst_release() ppp: set qdisc_tx_busylock to avoid LOCKDEP splat atl1c: restore buffer state net: fix a build failure when !CONFIG_PROC_FS net: ipv4: fix waring -Wunused-variable net: proc: fix build failed when procfs is not configured Revert "xen: netback: remove redundant xenvif_put" net: move procfs code to net/core/net-procfs.c qmi_wwan, cdc-ether: add ADU960S bonding: set sysfs device_type to 'bond' bonding: fix bond_release_all inconsistencies b44: use netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() xen: netback: remove redundant xenvif_put net: fec: Do a sanity check on the gpio number ip_gre: propogate target device GSO capability to the tunnel device ip_gre: allow CSUM capable devices to handle packets bonding: Fix initialize after use for 3ad machine state spinlock bonding: Fix race condition between bond_enslave() and bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate() ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar: "There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are: Main kernel side changes: - Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by Oleg Nesterov. - Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu. - tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller improvements. - Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by Tony Luck. - Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob Shin. - This tracing commit: tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events changes the ABI. All involved parties (PowerTop in particular) seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ... Main tooling side changes: - Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim: To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording. And then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header and prints them together if --group option is provided. You can use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information: $ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1 [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ] $ perf evlist --group {ref-cycles,cycles} With this example, default perf report will show you each event separately. You can use --group option to enable event group view: $ perf report --group ... # group: {ref-cycles,cycles} # ======== # Samples: 7K of event 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }' # Event count (approx.): 6876107743 # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ................ ....... ................. .......................... 99.84% 99.76% noploop noploop [.] main 0.07% 0.00% noploop ld-2.15.so [.] strcmp 0.03% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] timerqueue_del 0.03% 0.03% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_cpu 0.02% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] account_user_time 0.01% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __alloc_pages_nodemask 0.00% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] native_write_msr_safe 0.00% 0.11% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock 0.00% 0.06% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_page 0.00% 0.02% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] rcu_check_callbacks 0.00% 0.02% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __current_kernel_time As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }'.

2013-02-06powerpc/5200: Fix size to request_mem_region() callGrant Likely
The Bestcomm driver requests a memory region larger than the one described in the device tree. This is due to an extra undocumented field in the bestcomm register structure. This hasn't been a problem up to now, but there is a patch pending to make the DT platform_bus support code use platform_device_add() which tightens the rules and provides extra checks for drivers to stay within the specified register regions. Alternately, I could have removed the extra field from the structure, but I'm not sure if it is still needed for resume to work. Better be safe and leave it in.

With lazy interrupt, we always call __check_irq_replaysome with decrementers_next_tb to check if we need to replay timer interrupt.

2013-01-29powerpc/pasemi: Fix crash on rebootSteven Rostedt
commit f96972f2dc "kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()" added a call to disable_nonboot_cpus() on kernel_restart(), which tries to shutdown all the CPUs except the first one. The issue with the PA Semi, is that it does not support CPU hotplug. When the call is made to __cpu_down(), it calls the notifiers CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, and then tries to take the CPU down. One of the notifiers to the CPU hotplug code, is the cpufreq. The DOWN_PREPARE will call __cpufreq_remove_dev() which calls cpufreq_driver->exit.

2013-01-27cputime: Generic on-demand virtual cputime accountingFrederic Weisbecker
If we want to stop the tick further idle, we need to be able to account the cputime without using the tick. Virtual based cputime accounting solves that problem by hooking into kernel/user boundaries. However implementing CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING require low level hooks and involves more overhead. But we already have a generic context tracking subsystem that is required for RCU needs by archs which plan to shut down the tick outside idle. This patch implements a generic virtual based cputime accounting that relies on these generic kernel/user hooks. There are some upsides of doing this: - This requires no arch code to implement CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING if context tracking is already built (already necessary for RCU in full tickless mode). - We can rely on the generic context tracking subsystem to dynamically (de)activate the hooks, so that we can switch anytime between virtual and tick based accounting. This way we don't have the overhead of the virtual accounting when the tick is running periodically. And one downside: - There is probably more overhead than a native virtual based cputime accounting. But this relies on hooks that are already set anyway.

2013-01-17sk-filter: Add ability to lock a socket filter programVincent Bernat
While a privileged program can open a raw socket, attach some restrictive filter and drop its privileges (or send the socket to an unprivileged program through some Unix socket), the filter can still be removed or modified by the unprivileged program. This commit adds a socket option to lock the filter (SO_LOCK_FILTER) preventing any modification of a socket filter program. This is similar to OpenBSD BIOCLOCK ioctl on bpf sockets, except even root is not allowed change/drop the filter. The state of the lock can be read with getsockopt(). No error is triggered if the state is not changed. -EPERM is returned when a user tries to remove the lock or to change/remove the filter while the lock is active. The check is done directly in sk_attach_filter() and sk_detach_filter() and does not affect only setsockopt() syscall. Signed-off-by: Vincent Bernat <bernat@luffy.cx> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-15NTP: Add a CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC configurationJason Gunthorpe
The purpose of this option is to allow ARM/etc systems that rely on the class RTC subsystem to have the same kind of automatic NTP based synchronization that we have on PC platforms. Today ARM does not implement update_persistent_clock and makes extensive use of the class RTC system. When enabled CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC will provide a generic rtc_update_persistent_clock that stores the current time in the RTC and is intended complement the existing CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS option that loads the RTC at boot. Like with RTC_HCTOSYS the platform's update_persistent_clock is used first, if it works. Platforms with mixed class RTC and non-RTC drivers need to return ENODEV when class RTC should be used. Such an update for PPC is included in this patch. Long term, implementations of update_persistent_clock should migrate to proper class RTC drivers and use CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC instead.

2013-01-03powerpc/vdso: Remove redundant locking in update_vsyscall_tz()Shan Hai
The locking in update_vsyscall_tz() is not only unnecessary because the vdso code copies the data unproteced in __kernel_gettimeofday() but also introduces a hard to reproduce race condition between update_vsyscall() and update_vsyscall_tz(), which causes user space process to loop forever in vdso code. The following patch removes the locking from update_vsyscall_tz(). Locking is not only unnecessary because the vdso code copies the data unprotected in __kernel_gettimeofday() but also erroneous because updating the tb_update_count is not atomic and introduces a hard to reproduce race condition between update_vsyscall() and update_vsyscall_tz(), which further causes user space process to loop forever in vdso code. The below scenario describes the race condition, x==0 Boot CPU other CPU proc_P: x==0 timer interrupt update_vsyscall x==1 x++;sync settimeofday update_vsyscall_tz x==2 x++;sync x==3 sync;x++ sync;x++ proc_P: x==3 (loops until x becomes even) Because the ++ operator would be implemented as three instructions and not atomic on powerpc.

2012-12-17compat: generic compat_sys_sched_rr_get_interval() implementationCatalin Marinas
This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support. The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do the u32->int sign extension. The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched function declarations.

2012-12-17include/linux/init.h: use the stringify operator for the __define_initcall macroMatthew Leach
Currently the __define_initcall() macro takes three arguments, fn, id and level. The level argument is exactly the same as the id argument but wrapped in quotes. To overcome this need to specify three arguments to the __define_initcall macro, where one argument is the stringification of another, we can just use the stringification macro instead.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "While small this set of changes is very significant with respect to containers in general and user namespaces in particular. The user space interface is now complete. This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces. The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from using cool new kernel features is broken. This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for the pid, user, mount namespaces. This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace cleanups/simplifications. Of particular significance is the rework of the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation. At least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup. The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS, ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission checks are always applied. The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same namespaces. Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user namespace root to usefully use the networking stack. Similar changes for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my tree. Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the /proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree. Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2, and xfs so the Kconfig guard remains in place preventing that user namespaces from being built when any of those filesystems are enabled. Future design work remains to allow root users outside of the initial user namespace to mount more than just /proc and /sys." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (38 commits) proc: Usable inode numbers for the namespace file descriptors. proc: Fix the namespace inode permission checks. proc: Generalize proc inode allocation userns: Allow unprivilged mounts of proc and sysfs userns: For /proc/self/{uid,gid}_map derive the lower userns from the struct file procfs: Print task uids and gids in the userns that opened the proc file userns: Implement unshare of the user namespace userns: Implent proc namespace operations userns: Kill task_user_ns userns: Make create_new_namespaces take a user_ns parameter userns: Allow unprivileged use of setns. userns: Allow unprivileged users to create new namespaces userns: Allow setting a userns mapping to your current uid. userns: Allow chown and setgid preservation userns: Allow unprivileged users to create user namespaces. userns: Ignore suid and sgid on binaries if the uid or gid can not be mapped userns: fix return value on mntns_install() failure vfs: Allow unprivileged manipulation of the mount namespace. vfs: Only support slave subtrees across different user namespaces vfs: Add a user namespace reference from struct mnt_namespace ...
